Chapter 6: Cancel the Renewal!

~6 min read 1,150 words

"Li Zong, I don't know the specifics either."

"All of this was arranged by our Chairman; as for whether you offended the Chairman, I have no idea."

"Please step aside, Li Zong; I need to get busy."

After speaking, the female secretary turned and left, leaving Li Lishu standing dumbfounded.

Hearing this, Wu Jun's face showed even more surprise as he walked up to Li Lishu and said, "Sister, when did you offend the Chairman of Nan Shen Group? At first, Nan Shen Group and Li Shi Group were cooperating just fine, weren't they?"

Li Lishu heard this and also showed a puzzled expression.

Logically, the only person she usually deals with is Jiangnan.

As for the Chairman of Nan Shen Group, she has never even seen him despite his visits to discuss cooperation; she is always received by General Manager Song Zining.

Moreover, each time Song Zining treats her with great respect, and even the female secretary beside him does the same.

Why all of a sudden cancel the renewal cooperation with Li Shi Group?

This cooperation concerns Li Shi Group's future development; if the renewal proceeds, it could cause irreversible damage to Li Shi Group!

Thinking this, Li Lishu grew impatient and was about to catch up to the female secretary to ask again how she had offended the Chairman.

However, at that moment.

Song Zining, dressed in a LO‑branded uniform and surrounded by the crowd at the center, stepped out of the elevator on the spot.

Seeing Song Zining, Li Lishu hurried forward and asked, "Chairman Song, your company has always cooperated with my Li Shi Group; why suddenly not renew the contract this time?"

"And your secretary said I offended the Chairman—what on earth is going on?"

Li Lishu, looking confused, asked Song Zining.

When Song Zining saw Li Lishu again, a look of contempt flashed on his face, and he thought scornfully, "Hmph, if it weren't for a single remark from young master Jiang back then, could the petty Li Shi Group even aspire to climb the great tree of Nan Shen Group?"

"Now this woman not only keeps a kept man, but also offended young master Jiang and wants to cooperate with Nan Shen Group again?"

"What a delusional fantasy!"

Song Zining ignored him and started to walk forward.

At this point, Li Lishu hurriedly blocked him and said again, "Chairman Song, you are close to the Chairman and must know the situation; please tell me, even if I have to die, let me die with clarity."

Seeing Li Lishu's brazen attitude, Song Zining lost some patience and said coldly, "Li Zong, the Chairman's decision naturally reflects his will; if he canceled the renewal, then it is canceled, with no reason."

"You, on the other hand, think carefully about where exactly you offended the Chairman."

Having said that, Song Zining didn't even glance at Li Lishu, turned, and left.

Because seeing this woman made him extremely angry.

At that moment, Li Lishu suddenly thought of someone.

"Jiangnan?"

But the next second, Li Lishu shook her head abruptly, denying in her mind, "Impossible—Jiangnan, that freeloader, how could he possibly be connected to Nan Shen Group?"

"Looks like I really overthought it."

Li Lishu let out a sigh of relief, turned, and said to Wu Jun, "Let's go, back to the company now and think about what to do."

Li Lishu grabbed Wu Jun and led him out.

At that moment, Wu Jun's face showed a barely perceptible disdain.

After all, his flattery toward the foolish Li Lishu was only to obtain her financial support.

Now, this foolish Li Lishu actually managed to ruin the cooperation with Nan Shen Group—utterly foolish.

"Alright, sister, I'll drive."

Wu Jun put on a fake smile and directly sat in the driver's seat.

Meanwhile.

Tianyu No. 1.

Murong Wan, having just stopped the sports car, immediately got out and opened the door for Jiangnan.

After all, her grandfather had told her to show more respect to Doctor Jiang.

But Murong Wan's behavior made Jiangnan very uncomfortable; he waved his hand and said, "No need, I can get out by myself."

Having said that, Jiangnan stepped out of the car on the spot.

Looking at the luxurious villa before him, Jiangnan couldn't help but sigh, "So this is the Tianyu No. 1 villa that the Murong Family bought with a huge investment back then?"

It really is nice, but unfortunately it's not sufficiently dignified and grand.

However, the spiritual energy in this villa is truly abundant, perfect for cultivating the Heavenly Doctor Immortal Scripture.

Jiangnan whispered.

He suddenly recalled the Heavenly Doctor Immortal Scripture his master had taught him.

It is said that the Heavenly Doctor Immortal Scripture has three major realms: post‑natal, pre‑natal, and supreme.

Once cultivated to the pre‑natal realm, one can revive the dead, flesh and bone, and also possess unparalleled power.

Unfortunately, Jiangnan has only just cultivated to the post‑natal stage, yet already stands at the pinnacle of the world.

If he reaches the supreme realm, who in the world could contend with him?

However, at that moment.

Murong Wan suddenly handed a bunch of golden keys to Jiangnan and said, "Doctor Jiang, please accept Tianyu No. 1; this is the key my grandfather specifically instructed me to give you."

"Furthermore, in three months—on my grandfather's birthday—various dignitaries from all over Jinghai and the great families will come to the Murong Family; please, Doctor Jiang, be sure to attend, and the Murong Family will host you as a distinguished guest!"

Jiangnan nodded at the words, thinking to himself, "The Murong Family is indeed considerate."

"Fine, I'll accept it; won't you accompany me inside to look around?"

Jiangnan suddenly stepped forward and asked Murong Wan.

Seeing Jiangnan approach, Murong Wan's face flushed, and she timidly said, "Okay, since I'm bringing Doctor Jiang, you can look around."

However, upon hearing that.

Jiangnan furrowed his brow and, in a deep voice, said, "No need to be so restrained; we're not that far apart in age, you may call me Jiangnan."

"Let's go, go in and take a look."

Jiangnan said, and walked straight inside.

Murong Wan followed right behind, her face occasionally flushed.

If the rich second‑generation kids of Jinghai saw this scene, they'd surely die of jealousy!

Murong Wan is one of Jinghai's four great beauties, yet now she trails behind Jiangnan like a young girl, her face full of shyness.

Soon they arrived inside Tianyu No. 1.

As soon as they entered the villa, Murong Wan stepped forward and said to the servants inside, "Mr. Jiang has arrived; why aren't you out here to welcome him?"

In the next moment, an elderly gentleman in a suit, fairly senior in years, appeared with a group of maid‑clad girls and walked out.

They formed a line, the elder standing at the front, bowing toward Jiangnan and chanting in unison.

"Welcome, sir!"

"Welcome home, sir!"
