Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the blink of an eye, it was already the last day of her three-day break. Wen Xinya headed to Floral Lingo Pavilion and opted for the best beauty facial in store. She was still young and so, did not have to place too much emphasis on skincare treatment as long as she took good care of her skin. In fact, her skin might lose its vitality if she overused luxurious skincare products and end up becoming reliant on them. She was confident to say that the best skincare treatment for her skin would be the au natural Traditional Chinese Medicine skincare products combined with the consumption of herbal soups.

Three hours had passed by the time she was done with the beauty facial.

Secretary Cao asked to meet her at the tearoom to discuss the Wen Corporation’s entertainment city project.

Secretary Cao placed a document in front of her and said with a sullen expression, “Missy, the Wen Corporation has already established a cooperation with the Zhang Corporation and the contract has been signed as well. The Zhang Corporation will be investing 200 million in the entertainment city project within ten days. Once the funds have been deposited, the project will begin immediately.”

While Wen Xinya was away for the military training program, the Zhang Corporation participated in several discussions with the Wen Corporation and came to an agreement in the end. During the week-long negotiation... Secretary Cao looked Old Mr. Wen up. Although the shareholders respected Old Mr. Wen and were afraid of his authority, they were not willing to make any compromises because everyone’s interests were concerned.

Although Old Mr. Wen was the actual one helming the Wen Corporation, he could not go against the wishes of the shareholders. Besides... Wen Haowen was there to make things harder for Old Mr. Wen. Even though Wen Haowen was incompetent, he held 23% of the Wen Corporation’s shares, including the 3% from Ning Shuqian, thus giving him a significant amount of authority.

Hence, Old Mr. Wen lost the upper hand.

Old Mr. Wen held the highest authority in the Wen Corporation, which was also why the shareholders often opposed to him.

Hence, he pinned all of his hopes on Wen Xinya.

Ever since Secretary Cao started working for Wen Xinya, she took him by surprise on multiple occasions.

“It’s only been about a month and things have progressed so rapidly?” She immediately perused the agreement carefully, only to discover that the terms all sounded reasonable and that there were no loopholes.

However, she was rather shocked. Even if Ning Shuqian and Wen Haowen were there to mess with the situation, the matter wouldn’t have progressed so smoothly and quickly. After all, the bunch of shareholders were not to be trifled with and were all sharp and alert.

Secretary Cao nodded with a heavy heart, “Wen Haowen and Ning Shuqian actually managed to convince the Zhang Corporation and persuaded Madam Zhang, who now helms the Zhang Corporation, to send their representatives for a secret meeting. I heard... that some of the esteemed shareholders have also joined the meeting. At last, they agreed to cooperate with each other.”

He had met Madam Zhang before and knew that she was intelligent and capable. However, the gloomy look in her eyes made her look terrifyingly menacing.

“Madam Zhang?” Wen Xinya’s heart skipped a beat before sinking all of a sudden. For some reason, she was reminded of the woman whom she saw at Ning Shuqian’s nursing home. At that time, the woman stared at her with a hair-raising look of resentment. Ever since then, she began to suspect that there was something wrong with the woman. Later on, she heard a nurse addressing the woman as Madam Zhang.

Her instincts told her that that woman whom she saw was the Madam Zhang that Secretary Cao was referring to. “Is that Madam Zhang a lady who’s in her late forties and... is wheelchair-bound?”

Wen Xinya racked her brains and tried to recall what the Madam Zhang whom she had seen looked like. However, Madam Zhang did not leave too lasting of an impression and that was all she remembered about her. Hence, her description was too vague.

Secretary Cao answered, “Yes. Missy, have you met Madam Zhang before?’

Although Wen Xinya’s description was vague, he felt that she must have met Madam Zhang before, because she sounded rather firm when she asked that question.

Wen Xinya hesitated for a moment before asking, “Have you checked up on this Madam Zhang? Did you find out about her background?”

She could not help but second guess because the appearance of the Zhang Corporation and Madam Zhang were too coincidental.

Secretary Cao said, “I’ve looked into it. Madam Zhang is a career woman and competent businesswoman who contributed greatly to Zhang Corporation’s success today. Madam Zhang’s husband and son passed away in a fatal car accident two years ago. Due to the fact that she could not take the blow, she developed depression and had been receiving treatment in the nursing home. Her condition only became stable a while ago.”

Secretary Cao then told her more about Madam Zhang.

Wen Xinya’s face grew sullen and thought to herself, According to Secretary Cao’s investigation, the nursing home is probably much more complicated than I had imagined. Ning Shuqian and Madam Zhang have devised a plot against the Wen Corporation without my knowledge.

I should have guessed a long time ago that it was impossible for Ning Shuqian to come up with such a seamless plan all by herself. There... definitely is someone behind her to aid her in doing these to render the Wen Family helpless.

The mastermind should be Madam Zhang.

Madam Zhang is probably the one who instigated Ning Shuqian.

Secretary Cao noticed the look on her face and asked with a heavy heart, “Is there something wrong with this Madam Zhang?”

Due to the fact that he had been working alongside Wen Xinya for a long time, Secretary Cao was well aware that the entertainment city project was just a conspiracy against the Wen Corporation. Madam Zhang and the Zhang Corporation were too much of a coincidence.

Wen Xinya nodded and exclaimed, “I’m afraid so!”

Secretary Cao asked, “Missy, what do we do now? We must think of a way to terminate the entertainment city project.”

At this point, the project was already out of their control and the Wen Family had lost dominance.

Wen Xinya gently knocked her fingers against the table and sunk deep into thought.

Unable to take it any longer, Secretary Cao said, “In the past, we probably could intervene with the internal management, but ever since the cooperation happened, we’re no longer in control and Wen Haowen has become more and more brazen.”

Whenever he saw the look of arrogance on Wen Haowen’s face, he would silently curse him and call him stupid in his heart.

Wen Xinya said, “Let me think about it.”
