Chapter 529: Be good and listen to me

Shen Nan Zhi was completely dumbfounded.

She stared wide-eyed, even forgetting to breathe.

"You little brat, today I'm letting you off easy," Su Monong said in a soft voice.

Lin Yuan only felt his brow twitch, "Um, Director Su, I still have a document I haven't finished, I'll go deal with it first..."

Lin Yuan hurriedly looked for an excuse, wanting to leave.

Just kidding.

With these two women standing here, Lin Yuan simply couldn't bear it.

But just as Lin Yuan turned around, Su Monong and Shen Nan Zhi both reached out and each grabbed him.

"Don't go."

"You're not allowed to leave."

The two women said in unison.

……

Two hours later, the atmosphere in the office gradually calmed.

Lin Yuan lay on the wide leather sofa, his chest still rising and slightly falling, his face full of fatigue.

He didn't even have the strength to lift his hand.

At this moment, Lin Yuan was like a tool person.

Su Monong tidied her clothes, walked over to sit beside Shen Nan Zhi, and handed her a cup of warm water.

Su Monong's tone was much softer than before, "Little sister Nan Zhi, after what we've been through, we've basically opened up to each other. Next, we should talk about the real matter."

Shen Nan Zhi took the cup and took a gentle sip.

She lifted her gaze to Su Monong, the wariness in her eyes lessening a bit.

Shen Nan Zhi asked softly, "Sister Su, what you want to talk about is cooperation, right?"

"Exactly." Su Monong smiled and said:

"I know you and Lin Yuan have put a lot of effort into the X Vaccine research; this project has huge potential. I can mobilize all the company's resources to support you. The two of us women will join forces to make the X Vaccine a success. At the same time, we'll together assist Lin Yuan, help him gain a firm footing in the company, and pave the way for him to eventually take over the Su Group."

Upon hearing this, Shen Nan Zhi turned her gaze to the sofa where Lin Yuan lay.

Shen Nan Zhi nodded.

Su Monong's beautiful eyes finally relaxed as she said, "Little sister Nan Zhi, does that mean you agree to join my faction?"

Shen Nan Zhi bit her lip, nodded, and said, "Joining your faction is fine, but I have a condition."

Su Monong said, "What is it? Go ahead."

Shen Nan Zhi's pretty face turned serious as she said, "My condition is that you, Sister Su, must not deceive or use Lin Yuan and me. If I find out you're just using Lin Yuan as a tool to consolidate your power, I will certainly not let you off."

Su Monong looked at Shen Nan Zhi's serious expression and laughed delightedly.

She reached out and ruffled Shen Nan Zhi's hair, the gesture affectionate like sisters: "Good little sister, rest assured, my heart is all with Lin Yuan."

Su Monong walked to the side of the sofa, bent down, and pinched Lin Yuan's cheek.

Su Monong said gently, "I've said before that the Su Group will be handed over to Lin Yuan to manage, and I will certainly keep my word. Together we will assist Lin Yuan, help him grow, and let him become a leader who can stand on his own."

Shen Nan Zhi looked at the sincerity in Su Monong's eyes, then glanced at Lin Yuan.

Shen Nan Zhi lightly nodded.

The two women from different factions reached a silent understanding at this moment……

……

In the following days, the internal winds of the Su Group quietly shifted.

Shen Nan Zhi changed from her usual habit of burying herself in the lab.

She began to frequently appear in Su Monong's office.

She would often discuss the X Vaccine's research progress with Su Monong.

Moreover, Shen Nan Zhi not only agreed to let the technical assistants sent by Su Monong be stationed in the R&D department.

She even publicly endorsed Su Monong's proposed "Innovative R&D Plan" at the company's high-level meeting.

This was the first time Shen Nan Zhi had ever publicly supported Su Monong.

These actions quickly reached the ears of the Group's second-in-command, Sun Licheng.

Sun Licheng suddenly felt a bit panicked.

This Shen Nan Zhi is a talent that Sun Licheng headhunted.

She is also part of Sun Licheng's faction.

Shen Nan Zhi, how could she suddenly defect to Sun Licheng and Su Monong?

You know, the pharmaceutical R&D department is the core department of the group!

Moreover, Shen Nan Zhi is still accepting and continuing to research the X Vaccine project!

Once the X Vaccine succeeds, it will bring the group endless profits!

In the Su Group, whoever controls the R&D core holds the initiative.

But at this moment, Sun Licheng's most trusted confidant, Shen Nan Zhi, actually defected to Su Monong??

"Has Shen Nan Zhi really defected to Su Monong?" Sun Licheng sat in his office, his fingers pounding heavily on the desk, his face so dark it seemed water could drip from it.

His subordinate stood beside him, not daring to even breathe.

His subordinate cautiously said, "General Manager Sun, we saw Director Shen yesterday still attending the supplier meeting together with Director Su; the two interacted very closely, not like they were pretending."

Sun Licheng slammed the table so hard that the water in his tea cup splashed out!

"Shen Nan Zhi! This woman is simply outrageous! Weren't the terms I offered her before generous enough? Shares, promotion, project leadership—I could give her everything she wanted, so why did she choose that woman Su Monong instead!"

Sun Licheng shouted angrily!

After the anger, Sun Licheng felt more of a deep anxiety……%

Shen Nan Zhi's defection meant that Sun Licheng had completely lost control over the group's R&D department.

Sun Licheng had lost his important say.

Now, trying to shake Su Monong's position is as difficult as climbing to heaven.

But he had been eyeing Su Monong for years, and it seemed he was about to oust her.

Sun Licheng had poured countless efforts into dealing with Su Monong; how could he resign himself to defeat now?

Just as Sun Licheng was overwhelmed, his daughter Sun Weiwei pushed the door open and entered.

Sun Weiwei stepped forward, pulled out a chair, and sat down.

Seeing her father's worried frown, she hesitated then spoke: "Dad, don't worry, I might have a way."

Sun Licheng lifted his gaze to her: "What do you have in mind?"

Sun Weiwei's deep eyes looked up as she said: "The key lies in one person, Lin Yuan."

Sun Licheng's expression tightened: "Lin Yuan?"

Sun Weiwei nodded: "Lin Yuan is currently a rising star beside Su Monong; if we can win him over and have him fully ally with us, we can surely topple Su Monong."

Sun Licheng's expression tightened as he said: "That's impossible; we tried to win Lin Yuan over many times before, but he ultimately betrayed us. He seeks neither wealth nor power; such a person is hard to win over."

Sun Weiwei's eyes gazed softly: "I have a way; tonight I guarantee he will obediently listen to my words~!"
