Chapter 15

After Nan Qiao left the Nan family, she found a hotel to stay in for the night. She reviewed what had happened today. From the looks of it, everything had been planned long ago.

Including why He Qian did not go downstairs with her even though there was still time. Everything that had happened was perfectly planned.

Other than a school bag, Nan Qiao left the Nan family without anything else.

Nan Qiao opened her bag and took out all her books. Finally, she cut the compartment of her bag with a pair of scissors and took out a thin piece of paper with words written on it.

“Qiaoqiao, Grandpa can’t protect you anymore, but Grandpa has already made arrangements for you. If you suffer in the future, leave the Nan family and go to the Shengjing Group to look for your eldest brother, Murong Chen. He will tell you everything.”

There was also a phone number under the letter.

In her previous life, Nan Qiao was heartbroken and had long forgotten about this letter that she had hidden in the compartment of her bag. But in this life, this letter was Nan Qiao’s last trump card.

The next day, Nan Qiao prepared to set off to look for her family, but the weather was unpredictable, and it rained heavily on the way.

Nan Qiao braved the heavy rain and arrived at the city’s second-ranked corporation, Shengjing Group. The receptionist looked at the drenched Nan Qiao in disdain and covered her face. “Young lady, this is not a place for you to hide from the rain. You should leave quickly.”

When Nan Qiao heard this, her expression did not change. She patted the water off her body. “I’m here to look for someone.”

“Who are you looking for?”

The receptionist rolled her eyes. Could she be some poor relative from the bottom of the hierarchy?

“I’m looking for Murong Chen.”

“Where did this wild girl come from? How dare you call the CEO by his name? Security, chase her out!” The receptionist was furious when she heard this.

She felt disdain in her heart. She did not know where this unknown little girl came from, but she dared to ask for the CEO recklessly. She was really a newborn calf that was not afraid of the tiger.

She probably wanted to seduce the CEO with her looks. Unfortunately, although the CEO was young and impetuous, he had always been cold and did not get close to women.

Even the dogs around him were males. This little girl’s wishful thinking would get her nowhere.

Nan Qiao did not say anything to her. Since this receptionist did not want to help her, she could only make the call herself. She took out her phone, found Murong Chen’s number, and called him directly.

“Hello.” A low and mellow voice sounded, gentle and indifferent.

“Hello, I’m Nan Qiao. I’m downstairs at your company now. The receptionist won’t let me in.”

Nan Qiao clearly heard a strange sound from the other end of the phone, as if something had been broken.

“Wait for me. I’ll be down in a second.”

On the other end of the line, Murong Chen’s voice sounded a little anxious. There was the sound of the wind. It seemed that he was on the way downstairs.

Nan Qiao ended the call in satisfaction. It seemed that the person her grandfather had referred her to was still very reliable.

When the receptionist heard Nan Qiao’s call, she crossed her arms and tapped her high heels. She looked domineering, as if she was looking at a clown.

This girl was clearly just pretending. She did not believe that she really had the ability to call the CEO down.

As time passed, the receptionist saw that the elevator was indeed moving. She sneered in her heart. This girl seemed to be quite good at pretending. But don’t think that she would be frightened like this and let her go up.

As soon as the elevator door opened, Murong Chen rushed over. When he saw the girl standing downstairs, he frowned slightly. “Why are you drenched like this?”

He immediately took off his jacket and covered Nan Qiao’s shoulders. “Don’t catch a cold. Follow me upstairs.”

Murong Chen hugged Nan Qiao and went upstairs. Before he left, he suddenly turned around. His gaze was as sharp as a knife as it swept across the front desk. The front desk staff felt a chill on her neck.

“You don’t have to come to work tomorrow.”

The receptionist almost lost her balance and fell. She leaned against the stage and watched in disbelief as Murong Chen helped Nan Qiao away.

It’s over, it’s all over…

Murong Chen prepared a towel and blanket for Nan Qiao. Then, he carefully wiped her face for her. The man in front of her was not too old, but he made her feel safe. It seemed like he only had eyes for her at this moment. He took care of her meticulously. When he wiped her hair, his movements were gentle, afraid that he would hurt her.

“You…”

Before Nan Qiao could finish speaking, Murong Chen smiled slightly. “I’m the eldest grandson adopted by your grandfather. You can call me Big Brother. I have five other brothers. I’ll introduce your other brothers to you later. According to Grandpa’s last words, since you came to the company to look for me, it means that you’re already prepared.”

Murong Chen took out a contract from the cabinet and placed it in front of her.

“As long as you sign it, the entire company will be yours, including the hundreds of billions of assets Grandpa left behind.”

Nan Qiao was shocked and her eyes widened. “How can there be so much money?”

Although she knew that her grandfather was very rich, it was not to the point of…

So as long as she signed it, she would immediately become a billionaire?

“Shengjing Group hasn’t lived up to its reputation all these years. Moreover, there are some businesses that can’t be done openly, so it’s normal that you don’t know. Previously, I was the one who took care of these assets on your behalf. From now on, I’ll leave them all to you.”

Murong Chen seemed to be giving instructions. His smile was gentle. It was impossible to tell that such a person was the living King of Hell whose words usually caused people to tremble in fear.

“What about you?” Nan Qiao asked.

“I still have some savings. Grandpa has trained me and helped me cultivate some skills. He said that if I’m capable, I won’t starve to death no matter where I go.”

Nan Qiao waved her hand when she heard this. “No, no, no. Big Brother, you should take care of the company. I don’t even know how to run a company.”

Murong Chen thought for a moment and finally said, “If you don’t know, I can teach you. I’ll help you take care of the company first. I’ll leave after you learn everything.”

Nan Qiao shook her head and pulled Murong Chen’s hand to sit on the sofa beside her.

“Big Brother, Grandpa gave you these assets because he trusts you. How can a little girl like me manage such a big company? I’ll inherit half of the company’s shares, and the other half will belong to you. My big brother can’t work in the company for nothing and ends up with nothing. What kind of person would I be if I let you go?”

“Nonsense!” Murong Chen stood up immediately and glared at her with a serious expression. It seemed like he was about to flare up.

Nan Qiao pulled him back to sit down and tugged at Murong Chen’s sleeve with a slightly coquettish tone. “I didn’t give you the shares for nothing. I have conditions. I hope that you can continue to manage the company, while I remain a freeloader. I’ll just leave the company to you and get a dividend at the end of every year.”

In the end, Nan Qiao even sighed. “Your shares are not easy to get at all~”

Murong Chen was touched in his heart and pursed his lips. He knew that this was all because his sister was a nice person and did not want to see him leave the company. That was why she comforted him like this.

His heart softened. It was really difficult not to like this sister.

“Alright, I accept.” Murong Chen no longer refused, but he swore in his heart to make the company better and become the number one corporation in the city!

“I want to go back to Grandpa’s house to take a look first.” When Nan Qiao said this, the light in her eyes lost some color.

Because her Grandpa and her Mother were not on good terms, every time her Grandpa was mentioned, Nan Kang’s expression would turn ugly. He had not gone back to visit her Grandpa many times.

“Alright, Big Brother will bring you home.”

Murong Chen took the initiative to hold Nan Qiao’s hand and pulled her downstairs to the underground parking lot.

Looking at Murong Chen’s large hand holding her tiny palm, Nan Qiao almost wanted to cry. It had been a long time since she had felt the warmth of a family.

Going home was such an extravagant wish, but the Nan family was no longer her home.

Nan Qiao thought that she would be fighting alone this time, but she did not expect someone to hold her hand to bring her home.
