“Hey, Ning Ning, the first batch of perfumes hits the market tomorrow, excited?” Shen Ning arrived at Gu Qi’s office early in the morning, and Ma Li came in energetically.

“Absolutely! Thank you so much, Uncle Ma Li,” Shen Ning expressed her gratitude with enthusiasm.

Thanks to the success of the tea party not long ago, and with substantial investments in advertising, they had received many orders. Making money was clearly visible on the horizon.

“I’m truly delighted. The old Gu Qi is back,” Ma Li beamed like a child.

Just then, Shen Ning’s phone rang.

She checked and saw that it was Shen Mei calling. Her heart sank.

“Shen Ning, 1 command you to come to Li’s Manor immediately to see me.” The call came from Shen Mei, and she sounded imperious.

Shen Ning clenched her fist.

“Shen Ning, if you don’t come, you’ll face the consequences.” Shen Mei left this threat behind and hung up.

Shen Ning’s eyelid twitched, and she gritted her teeth.

“Uncle Ma Li, I’m entrusting Gu Qi to you for now. I hope you can protect everything here for my mother’s sake. 1’11 be grateful.” After a moment of thought, she earnestly requested Ma Li.

Ma Li, with his amiable smile, responded, “Ning Ning, don’t worry. 1 came here to help you develop Gu Qi with all my might.”

“Thank you, thank you,” Shen Ning expressed her gratitude again, her eyes glistening with tears.

She remembered her mother’s words: “Ning Ning, if you ever take over Gu Qi, be sure to utilize Uncle Ma Li. He will safeguard the company.”

Her nose tingled with emotion as she walked outside.

Li’s Manor.

When Shen Ning arrived, the villa was filled with jubilation and bustling activity.

She observed that at least one-third of the Li family’s housekeepers and staff had been dispatched to assist.

The fact that an unmarried woman could celebrate her birthday on such a grand scale at Li’s Manor had no reasonable explanation other than Li Zhen Ting’s favor.

She had spent two years here and celebrated two birthdays, both times in a desolate manner with no one remembering. Perhaps an unloved woman in her in-law’s home was destined to be treated this way.

Her heart ached, and she sniffled as she walked inside.

However, what she didn’t expect was to find Lan Fei Yun here!

Upon seeing this mother and daughter, she felt a surge of disgust deep within her.

“Shen Ning, come over and sign this contract.” As soon as she stood in Shen Mei’s room, Shen Mei domineeringly tossed a stack of contracts at her.

“What contract?” Shen Ning asked cautiously.

“Take a look for yourself,” Shen Mei replied arrogantly.

“Mei Mei, Ning Ning is your sister. Don’t have this attitude,” Lan Fei Yun scolded Shen Mei with a hint of displeasure. She then turned to Shen Ning with a friendly smile. “Ning Ning, come over and have a seat.”

Shen Ning looked at her coldly but didn’t move.

“Ning Ning, when are you going to bring Coco and Xiao Xiao home for a family reunion dinner?” Lan Fei Yun asked enthusiastically.

She deliberately emphasized ‘Coco,’ making Shen Ning feel an instant chill.

“I’m sorry, I need to take care of Ding Ding right now, so i don’t have the time,” she replied in a detached tone.

“Oh, well, you must make time in the future. Your father was talking about you yesterday,” Lan Fei Yun said with a forced smile.

Shen Ning couldn’t help but inwardly scoff.

Would Shen De Shun really be thinking about her? Over the years, when she was struggling and in dire straits, he never once looked for her. His heart belonged solely to Shen Mei, his daughter.

“Ning Ning, your father’s company, Shen Group, has had a tough year. They’ve incurred losses of millions. Your father is worried every day, can’t even eat properly, and his hair has turned completely white. As his daughter, you should take some responsibility,” Lan Fei Yun continued.

At this point, Shen Ning seemed to recall something. She immediately opened the contract that Shen Mei had handed her, and sure enough, inside it stated that Shen Ning was required to transfer ninety percent of the earnings from Gu Qi into Lan Fei Yun’s name.

It was shameless and utterly audacious!
