After Wen Haowen was placated by Ning Shuqian, he dragged her to bed for a good 30 minutes, only stopping when they ran out of energy . With Ning Shuqian’s guarantee, he felt more at ease and prepared to return to the company .
Wen Haowen tidied his attired and carried his briefcase . As he was about to leave, he asked out of nowhere, “Am I stupid?”
Every time he thought of the condescending words said by Wen Xinya at the conference room, he would feel unsettled .
Ning Shuqian was taken aback . After a pause, she stuttered . “Hao… Haowen, you… why would you even ask this?”
What did Wen Haowen mean by that? Could he have heard her calling him stupid in her mind?
Thinking about that, a shiver ran down her spine .
Wen Haowen’s face slowly turned pale after her lack of response .
Ning Shuqian reacted and immediately continued, “Haowen, how can you be stupid? If that were the case, I would not have married you . ”
Even Ning Shuqian cringed at herself for saying such cheesy words .
Was Wen Haowen stupid?
The answer was definitely yes .
There was no one else in this world who could be as stupid as Haowen .
Even after receiving an answer, he could still not get over it . He nodded his head before leaving the house .
Ning Shuqian heaved a sigh of relief . She patted her chest as she said, “Thank god he did not find out . ”
If Wen Haowen had found out that she had called him stupid behind his back, he would not let her off . If she were to be scolded or beaten, that was still not a problem . However, things would not end well for her if she were to be blacklisted by a despicable and unfaithful person like Wen Haowen .
Ning Shuqian thought Wen Haowen was acting a little strange . She muttered to herself, “Weird, why would he ask that question? Could it be he found out that he himself is stupid?”
Afterward, she shook her head . That was not possible . Wen Haowen was proud and arrogant, there was no way he would think he was a fool .
Ning Shuqian did not ponder any further . After all, she had more important things to deal with .
Ning Shuqian ran into the storeroom and swept all the random objects aside, then gently pried open a ceramic tile, revealing a little cell phone under it .
As she held the cell phone in her hands, her body began to tremble in fear .
She was unwilling to call “that person” . Every time she heard that electronic, cold and emotionless voice through the phone, she could not help but shiver .
However, she had no choice but to call . If she did not personally explain to that person about the entertainment city project being put on hold, she would not be let off easy .
Ning Shuqian took a deep breath and dialed the familiar number .
As usual, the call was answered on the first ring .
Ning Shuqian’s chest tightened as if there was someone suffocating her . Subconsciously, she held her breath and said, “The entertainment city project has temporarily been put on hold . According to Wen Haowen, it seems that the project will not be executed . ”
There was a dead silence . She could not even hear any hint of breathing from the other side of the call .
The suspense was torturing her . She was anxious, scared and trembling . However, she still explained the situation without a single lie .
She placed emphasis on the fact that Wen Xinya had connections with the Jiayuan Club . “I suspect that the BOSS of Jiayuan Club is actually the person supporting Wen Xinya from the back . We can use this opportunity to investigate clearly . ”
He had mentioned before that the person behind Wen Xinya was not easy to deal with . Since Wen Xinya was always cautious, they did not have any leads . Now that Wen Xinya had left some clues, she thought that they could make use of this chance to investigate her thoroughly .
Just then, the cold voice replied, “Do not mess with the Jiayuan Club . ”
Ning Shuqian was rather astonished . “Why?”
The voice sounded even colder as it said, “You don’t have to care about anything else . Just listen to me . ”
Jiayuan Club’s background was too complex such that even he could not get any information . Until today, he did not know what role the Jiayuan Club played in the Black Sunday incident .
The more mysterious they were, the more fearsome .
Ning Shuqian was indignant . “But it’s just a family club . Even if their background is unknown, how much power can they have? How scary can they be?”
No matter what, she wanted to catch Wen Xinya by her tail . Hence, she was not willing to let this go .
“The older you get the more short-sighted you’ve become . No wonder you are always losing to your stepdaughter . You are simply too stupid . Let me tell you, there’s the Great Three in Beijing which you should never mess with . Do you know what they are? The military circle’s timber, the Mo Family’s philosophy, and the Jiayuan’s bamboo!”
Ning Shuqian was stunned .
The Mo Family’s philosophy and the Jiayuan’s bamboo!
They were too profound for her to comprehend .
Out of the Big Three, Wen Xinya had taken ahold of two of them . One was her Grampy, and the other she had connections with . No wonder she could be so arrogant in the Capital city and not care about anybody else .
There were actually so many people willing to support Wen Xinya .
“I know what to do regarding the Jiayuan Club . You don’t have to be involved . ” The other party’s voice was filled with annoyance, yet still sounded as cold as always .
Ning Shuqian shuddered . She said uneasily, “About the entertainment city project being stopped, what should we do next? We have planned the project for such a long time and paid a great price for it . We can’t just give up on it . ”
She would really have nothing left if she gave up on it .
She would no longer have any value in the eyes of this person if she gave up on it .
Without any value, she would naturally be abandoned .
The voice paused before replying, “Relax, the entertainment city project is inevitable . Neither Wen Xinya or Wen Zhihang that old man can do anything to stop it . ”
Ning Shuqian was on cloud nine . She exclaimed, “You have a way?”
She did not expect that even after everything, the entertainment city project was able to be executed .
“After two days, visit Madam Zhang with Wen Haowen and you’ll know what to do at that time . As for Wen Haowen… you must remember to put him under complete control . ” Although Wen Haowen was a useful pawn, he was hard to control . However, there was no other suitable pawn in the Wen Family, and he had no choice but to settle for him . If it were not for his intention to manipulate Wen Haowen, he would have had long abandoned a worthless trash like Ning Shuqian .
After hearing him, Ning Shuqian was finally at ease .
