“Even if I still remember everything, I’ve already told you about her identity. Since she’s from a prestigious family, we cannot accuse her without evidence. When we do decide to confront her, we have to be prepared to face her wrath. Thus, she has no reason to fear me or the Shi family. Didn’t you see her contemptuous attitude towards us?”

Pei Jiyun clutched her chest, her body heaving with fear.

“Just let it go! Just let it go! This Nangong Nuannuan is too formidable! She’s actually a king of international mercenaries! A she-devil who kills without batting an eye! The Chi family must have accumulated 800 lifetimes’ worth of bad luck to have gotten such a venomous snake!”

Shi Yalin held Pei Jiyun’s hand and gently comforted her. “Mom, don’t be afraid. No matter how powerful Nangong Nuannuan is, your daughter isn’t some weakling! Furthermore, she’s in the public eye, while I’m in the dark. Once I finish my experiment, I’ll be queen of the world. When that time comes, I’m sure no one will dare to oppose me even if I appoint Big Bro as president.

Shi Yalin’s words worked on Pei Jiyun. Her eyes flashed with anticipation.

In Pei Jiyun’s heart, her son Shi Zhongyu was her most outstanding child.

Even if she allowed Shi Zhongyu to take over Shi Maude’s position of chairman in the future, Pei Jiyun still felt that he would be overqualified.

If he could really control the entire country like her daughter just suggested, or even just the people in the executive hall, then would the country not be completely under their control at that point?

However, Shi Yalin did not expect Nangong Nuannuan to specially come to meet her today.

If she continued to act arrogant, cold, and disdainful in front of her, then Nangong Nuannuan would definitely become much more suspicious of her.

However, she did not expect Nuannuan to even suspect her of anything at all.

Perhaps, it was not that Nuannuan was suspicious of her, but that Nangong Nuannuan was overconfident in her medical skills, especially acupuncture.

No one could suddenly recover so well after having their nerves damaged.

There had to be something fishy going on.

She also did not expect that the smile on her face when she woke up would make Nuannuan suspect her true identity.

Shi Yalin did not realize that it had been a while since Nangong Nuannuan supposedly walked out. As her expression shifted while Nuannuan walked away, a string of red agate crystals fell off Nangong Nuan’s wrist. She backtracked half a yard and squatted down to pick up the crystals. When she put them back on her wrist, she glanced at Shi Yalin with her X-ray vision and just so happened to see Shi Yalin’s expression slowly shift from fear to a cold smile. Afterward, the sneer turned into a bloodthirsty hatred.

At this point, what did Nangong Nuannuan not know?

Shi Maude, Shi Zhonglei, and Shi Zhongxiao did not bat an eye when Nuannuan dropped something on the ground. After she refastened her bracelet, they continued to walk to the front hall.

Coincidentally, at this moment, Chi Yang and Lu Guangsheng just finished talking. Just as they were about to go to the front hall to greet the old men and then go find Nuannuan, they saw her, Shi Maude, Shi Zhongyu, and Shi Zhongxiao walk in together.

“Chairman Shi?”

Shi Maude saw Chi Yang and greeted him politely. “Chi Yang, why haven’t you gone to the main hall yet?”

Chi Yang did not answer Shi Maude’s question, but instead asked, “Why is Chairman Shi with my fiancee?”
