348: Chapter 348: The Tri-Clan Alliance!
The call connected, and Su Wanqiao’s voice came through.
“Jinyu, I feel that my irritability has been getting worse recently.
Every time there is a meeting, I can’t control my temper.
Is there any way to restrain my symptoms?
When I see my employees making mistakes, I get instantly furious—especially Lin Shuang.
Every time he speaks to me, he’s so casual and doesn’t show any respect to the leadership.
I get angry just seeing his attitude!” Over the phone, Su Wanqiao was venting to her best friend.
And the person she was complaining about was none other than Lin Shuang.
Ning Jinyu clenched her teeth in pain but tried to stay calm as she spoke into the phone, “You might want to take a break; I guess it’s because your work intensity is too high, and the pressure is too much.
Take some time to rest and relax, maybe take a couple of days off, go shopping, clear your mind…
it might get better.”
“Jinyu, should I just fire Lin Shuang?
Having this guy in the company, I just can’t control my temper every day.
Ah, he’s almost becoming my nightmare,” Su Wanqiao continued to pour her heart out over the phone.
Upon hearing this, Ning Jinyu suddenly bit her lip harder—because she could clearly feel Lin Shuang’s anger.
Does this man not have any cooldown period?
Ning Jinyu knelt on the ground, almost breaking down.
“No…no need to fire him…
his staying at the company is also beneficial for you…” Ning Jinyu said, gripping the phone.
On the other end of the line, Su Wanqiao was taken aback, “A few days ago, didn’t you say that having Lin Shuang in the company would only ruin my mood?
Weren’t you the one who asked me to fire him?
Why the change of heart today?”
Ning Jinyu: “…”
At this moment, she felt like dying; Su Wanqiao was simply pouring oil on the fire.
Her health bar was already at rock bottom.
Ning Jinyu clenched her teeth, desperately trying to keep herself in check.
“Jinyu, what’s wrong with you?
Why are you panting?” Su Wanqiao sensed something was off and asked in surprise.
“Ah no…I…I’m doing an aerobics workout…” Ning Jinyu quickly replied.
On the phone, Su Wanqiao was a bit puzzled.
Was this woman really so disciplined?
It’s already late at night, and she is still doing aerobics?
“No way, aren’t you being too diligent?
Jinyu…
what should I do?
Having Lin Shuang in the company seems to affect my work, and I feel…
there’s something fishy between him and my sister, I’m afraid he might deceive her,” Su Wanqiao continued venting.
“No…I won’t talk anymore…I’m doing my workout, let’s talk tomorrow…” Ning Jinyu hurriedly said.
She was afraid of being discovered by Su Wanqiao and didn’t dare to continue the conversation, so she hung up the phone quickly.
Half an hour later, Ning Jinyu collapsed on the ground, completely exhausted.
Her long hair was disheveled, and her body was drenched in sweat…
Lin Shuang sat on the sofa, lighting up a cigarette and took a deep breath.
“You haven’t been speaking ill of me in front of Su Wanqiao, have you?” Lin Shuang glanced over at Ning Jinyu and said coldly.
Ning Jinyu was so frightened that she trembled, denying repeatedly.
“Come over here, help me bathe,” Lin Shuang coldly commanded.
Ning Jinyu bit her lip and obediently crawled over to serve the man as he bathed…
That night, in the bedroom…
Ning Jinyu endured numerous ‘punishments’ from her master, Lin Shuang.
For Ning Jinyu, the night was destined to be a tough one…
…
The night in Hai City, at the Xu family mansion, one of the four great noble families.
Late at night, Beiqiang Xiang made another visit to the Xu family.
In the parlor.
“Beiqiang Xiang, I’ve said it before, my Xu family won’t make a move.
Your repeatedly coming here is pointless; stop wasting your breath and leave.
It’s getting late, and I need to rest,” said Xu Wenhao, the head of the Xu family, issuing an eviction order.
He was almost sick of Beiqiang Xiang, who kept coming every other day, seeking to collaborate with the Xiang family to take on the Su Corporation.
Did he really think the Xu family was a tool for the Xiang family?
Using the Xu family’s blade to kill?
Impossible.
Xu Wenhao was no fool and would not be manipulated by Beiqiang Xiang.
However, Beiqiang Xiang said profoundly, “Family Head Xu, don’t rush to refuse.
What if I told you the Huang family and the Zhang family…
have already agreed to join hands?
Are you sure the Xu family wants to stay out of this?”
Swish!
At those words, Xu Wenhao’s expression finally changed slightly.
“You convinced the other two families to join hands?” Xu Wenhao asked in disbelief.
Beiqiang Xiang slowly nodded, called the other two family heads on the spot, and confirmed it right there.
At that moment, Xu Wenhao finally became unsettled.
If the other two families were ready to make a move, then his Xu family…
could not afford to miss out.
Three families joining forces, along with the power of Elder Xiang, would have a significant chance to eliminate Su Wanqiao and Lin Shuang.
That night, Xu Wenhao finally agreed to join the alliance.
The three major families were ready to join forces with Elder Xiang to take on the Su Corporation!
