An YanKun had never imagined in his life that one day he would be so embarrassed like this.
It was a total failure in trying to attack someone, but ending up hurting himself instead.
Not only did he not succeed in shaming An Nuan, he had instead jeopardized the future of his own children.
He was extremely upset.
"The work arrangements for An Hao, An Nuan and An Xiao have been decided. Secretary Tang." An YanKun spoke strongly.
"Yes, Chairman."
"Record and file it. Conduct assessments after three months and six months. Strictly implement according to today's meeting."
"Understood." Secretary Tang responded respectfully.
After An YanKun had arranged everything, he looked around at all the senior executives present. "If the senior executives have no other matters, An Nuan can leave first."
No one in the room spoke.
An YanKun signaled to An Nuan with his eyes.
An Nuan nodded, then respectfully said to everyone, "Senior executives, I'll take my leave now."
After saying that, she left the conference room.
Once she was out, An Nuan's mouth curled into a faint smile.
An Hao and An Xiao probably hadn't even thought that disaster would suddenly befall them!
She was not afraid at all.
After all, she had lived this life once before, and was very clear on market trends and future development directions.
It would be wishful thinking for An Hao and An Xiao to want to accomplish anything.
An Nuan returned to her office.
She had just sat down.
An Xiao knocked and entered.
At this moment she had a smiling face, probably still unaware of what had happened.
Or perhaps she had heard that An Nuan was called to the executive conference room, and thought she must have been humiliated somehow, so she came now to deliberately gloat.
An Nuan remained expressionless.
Hearing An Xiao's tender voice calling out, "Cousin sister, I've prepared the staff profiles for our department that you asked me to."
As she spoke, she placed a thick stack of staff profiles in front of An Nuan.
An Nuan looked at her and said, "In the company, call me Manager An."
An Xiao's smile clearly stiffened.
The next moment she still obediently nodded her head, "Yes, Manager An."
"If there's nothing else, go back to work."
"Okay." An Xiao nodded.
"Right." An Nuan called An Xiao again, "From now on we're in the same boat."
An Xiao was clearly surprised.
An Nuan smiled slightly, "Your dad will tell you soon. Go on now."
An Xiao felt somewhat puzzled.
She returned to her office.
The first thing she did was to immediately receive a call from An YanKun. She hurriedly took the call, "Dad."
Her voice was deliberately sweet.
"I'm informing you of a company decision. Just carry it out accordingly." An YanKun's tone was clearly unhappy.
An Xiao also keenly sensed something amiss at that moment, and obediently said, "I'll do whatever Dad says."
An YanKun coldly told An Xiao about the decision made in the conference room today.
After listening, An Xiao was shocked. She said in disbelief, "Dad, why do I have to take on the same wager as An Nuan? And I even have to be tied together with An Nuan, so if she doesn't complete it, won't I suffer the consequences too?"
"Don't ask anything else. Just do as I say!"
Knowing An YanKun was in a bad mood, An Xiao didn't dare ask another word, and quickly agreed, "Alright."
After speaking, An YanKun directly hung up the call.
Holding her phone, An Xiao's expression had clearly changed too.
Wasn't it supposed to be her dad going to make things difficult for An Nuan? Wasn't it supposed to be her dad going to get revenge for her? How did it end up not only not giving her any benefit, but also dragging her into it!
The more she thought about it, the angrier she felt.
The door suddenly burst open.
An Xiao's expression darkened, just about to flare up.
She saw the one who had pushed the door open was An Hao. An Hao immediately closed the door again.
Just as An Xiao was struggling to force a smile to face An Hao.
Slap! An Hao fiercely slapped An Xiao hard across the face.
An Xiao was instantly stunned silly by the slap.
Her eyes turned red, as she covered her face feeling extremely wronged, "Brother, what did I do wrong..."
"Shut up! You damned jinx, bringing you back to the An family, was it to let you sabotage me like this? If not for you saying An Nuan was targeting you, would Dad have deliberately tried to shame An Nuan in front of so many senior executives?! If he didn't do that, An Nuan and Second Uncle wouldn't have gotten hold of his handle, and in the end ruined my future! What exactly are you, with what right must I accompany you to death, you wild bastard child of a whore!" An Hao got angrier the more he spoke.
An Xiao was shamed beyond compare by An Hao's words.
Her tears kept streaming down non-stop, knowing that she had no right to retaliate at all now.
Yet in her heart she still hated him to death for trampling her like this.
"If I find out again that you're making any moves, watch me kill you!" An Hao threatened viciously.
Completely disregarding An Xiao's anguish, he turned and left.
If not for his father's sake, this cheap slut An Xiao, he would have beat her to death long ago!
An Xiao gnashed her teeth as she watched An Hao's departing back.
The pitiful and aggrieved look in her eyes just now instantly turned extremely sinister.
One day, she would make all the An family bow subserviently at her feet, begging for death!
...
An Hao left angrily.
If he didn't vent it out somehow, he really couldn't swallow this grievance.
Thinking of how well he had been doing, only to suddenly have his position changed and made to undergo some trial, he wished he could strangle An Xiao to death!
His footsteps halted slightly.
He saw An Nuan coming out of her office ahead.
The blazing fury that was hard to conceal, upon seeing An Nuan now seemed even more obvious.
An Nuan instead smiled lightly, appearing utterly calm and unconcerned, "Cousin brother, I heard you changed positions."
"Don't be too pleased with yourself." An Hao walked right up to An Nuan, saying viciously, "A silly girl like you who doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth, won't necessarily have a good outcome either."
"I'll say the same to cousin brother too."
An Hao's expression darkened.
"Without self-awareness, there really won't be a good outcome."
"What did you say?!" An Hao gnashed his teeth.
"Didn't cousin brother hear me clearly?" An Nuan looked straight at An Hao, without a shred of timidity left.
Recalling the past, she had really suffered endless bullying from An Hao.
An Hao was older and stronger. When they were young and no adults were looking, he would hit and threaten her.
Once unable to endure it anymore, she reported it.
As a result, without even asking what happened, her grandma had scolded her severely, saying she had no propriety, was disrespectful to her elder cousin brother, and had even learned to tattle!
After that, she never dared to report again, and developed a shadow of An Hao.
For a long time afterwards she didn't even dare appear before An Hao, let alone look straight at him like now.
An Hao of course also noticed An Nuan's difference now.
An Nuan was the one he had bullied since young, doing whatever he wanted with her, hitting her when he wanted, spitting at her when he wanted. An Nuan had always avoided him in fear since small, and would never meet his eyes. This kind of behavior now instead made him feel very uneasy.
He felt like the woman before his eyes could not be bullied at all anymore!
