Chapter 435: CEO Mo, Nice to Meet You (3)

Seeing the naturally pleased and joyful appearance of the person on the sofa, Ji Nuan hesitated. She did not wish to draw trouble unto herself. Even though she had only just opened the door, she immediately moved to step back.

However, Ji Mengran had already seen her. Her gaze shifted in Ji Nuan's direction, and the provocation in her eyes was strong. "Big sister, did you come to look for me?"

The words 'Big sister' made Ji Nuan pause on the door. She indifferently turned back to glance at Ji Mengran. At this moment, everyone had already turned their attention onto her.

"Miss Ji, this is your sister?" One of the wealthy young ladies asked in curiosity.

The words 'Miss Ji' naturally were not directed at Ji Nuan.

"Of course. My surname is Ji. Coincidentally, her surname is also Ji." Ji Mengran glanced at Ji Nuan, but her eyes were clearly mocking the truth behind her birth.

Since she had already been drawn into their conversation topic, it wasn't as simple for Ji Nuan to step out. She coldly glanced in their direction and entered.

Coincidentally, earlier in the exhibition center, she could only find flavored drinks and alcoholic beverages. There wasn't any bottled water in sight. She saw a water dispenser in the makeup room and immediately headed over. She took a paper cup from the side and poured herself some water.

"Miss Ji, your sister seems to be a little arrogant ah," The young lady spoke up again. As one's first impression was always the strongest, she assumed that Ji Mengran was easy to speak to, while her sister, who did not even greet them after entering, was an arrogant and pompous person.

"Don't you know of MN Group? My sister Ji Nuan is the person who recently climbed to the top of the Forbes' list of Chinese Power Businesswomen Under Twenty-Five." Ji Mengran then turned toward Ji Nuan, putting on an earnest expression to say: "It wasn't easy for you to climb to the top of the ranking. You have to act the part, at least, don't you? Otherwise, won't you be putting the position of MN Group's CEO to shame?"

Both of the young ladies knew very little about Ji Nuan; she was truly unfamiliar to them. On the other hand, when the two makeup artists heard that Ji Nuan was MN Group's CEO, they immediately restrained their originally narrow-minded expressions.

At this moment, the two wealthy ladies by Ji Mengran side sneered: "So what if you've climbed onto Forbes' list? Just like the awards you receive in the entertainment world, if you wish to have a status, all you have to do is to sleep with a few investors several times.

Ji Mengran lowered her eyes, and calmly said, "That's true. My sister previously also owned a property studio in Hai City, but ever since she left for England, she stopped contacting us. Who knows which amazing thigh she managed to hold onto? She established her company and built her image as a strong career woman, even if she really did anything dirty with anyone, I suspect that she wouldn't admit it... aiya, what am I saying? She is my sister. How can I say these things..."

"These sorts of occurrences are far too common in our circle. It all depends on whether or not you're willing to wait on a man." As one of the ladies spoke, she glanced at Ji Nuan, who was sipping her water by the side. Ji Nuan appeared to be mindless of their words. She then turned back to Ji Mengran: "It is similar to the way you are right now, Miss Ji. You have CEO Sheng backing you. If you were willing to sacrifice more, I'm sure your career would become even more comfortable, wouldn't it?"

"I'm not as capable as her. Besides, although Brother Sheng takes good care of me, our relationship isn't as you say. It's very pure between the two of us. He simply tries to take care of me a little."

"Why are you being so humble? You're wearing such a large, pink diamond. A pink diamond represents pure, romantic love. Since Mr. Sheng was able to gift you with this pink diamond necklace, it means that he has clear intentions for you. You should treasure this opportunity and let CEO Sheng bring your studio up as well. This way, you won't have to worry about a certain someone stepping all over you." The lady shifted her eyes toward Ji Nuan meaningfully.

"That's right. This pink diamond isn't cheap. It isn't easy to find similar pieces in the market either." The other lady cooperated with her words.

The two makeup artists were also staring at the pink diamond necklace adorning Ji Mengran's neck in envy. Afterward, as though it was out of work habit, they abruptly turned to look at Ji Nuan's neck. Ji Nuan's gown was outstanding, but she did not put on any accessories. Although her collarbone was beautiful, it still seemed as though something was missing.

However, the makeup artists did not dare to speak. They could not afford to provoke this Miss Ji, nor could they afford to provoke this CEO Ji. They could only rely on their instincts and stand closer to Ji Mengran's sofa.

These women continued one after one another. Ji Nuan was unmoved as she stood there sipping her water. When she was half-done with her drink, she finally placed her cup down to look at them. She entered the main topic directly: "With your intelligence and ability, I'm sure it wasn't easy for the few of you to gather here today. After all, the entrance to the business world is only so big. If you wish to build up any sort of achievements, the only method available to you is to climb into another man's bed."

Ji Nuan then turned to Ji Mengran, speaking to hit where it would hurt the most. "If you wish for Sheng Yihan to invest more money in you, perhaps you can consider making a bigger show of your own abilities. What's the point of bragging here when you couldn't obtain anything? Or perhaps... my dear sister, could it be that you've been sitting here for so long all for the sake of gathering a few mob characters to support your image?"

Ji Mengran was deliberating ways to manipulate Ji Nuan into sharing the experiences she had in England. When she heard her words, an enormous fire was abruptly lit in her heart. However, she still maintained the teasing smile on her lips.

Right now, Ji Nuan was simply holding herself up forcefully. Although Mo Jingshen had firmly protected her back then, at the end of the day, she still ended up alone.

Ji Mengran abruptly sharpened her gaze. "Big sister, I know you don't like it when others bring up those things..." Her careless words led everyone present to suspect that Ji Nuan truly had a dirty past. After all, it wasn't easy for such a young woman to stand firmly in the business world. She was even able to push MN Group into the top ten Chinese corporations in the world; this was not an easy feat.

Without waiting for Ji Mengran to finish speaking, Ji Nuan abruptly cut her off. "If everyone present is truly curious about my entrepreneurial experience, there's no harm in waiting for the book I've personally written to be published. It'll be available next month. You can head to the bookstore for a look if you please?"

Ji Nuan gently placed her purse atop the makeup mirror counter. She spoke indifferently and unhurriedly, but her words carried a strength that stopped anyone from speaking. The smile in her gaze was slightly col.: "Even before I returned home, there were already local publications contacting me. I was invited to write a self-help book as a young female entrepreneur. In the book, I detailed the beginnings of my career, as well as the investors and benefactors I met along the way. Although I don't like listening to such conjectures made with malicious intentions, if you're truly curious about my background, I don't mind sending a few copies for you guys to flip through."
