Mu Ning's first stop back home was to the LM Building.
The weather in early spring in Beijing was very dry and cold. She was wearing an apricot-colored woolen coat, woolen pants of the same color, a scarf covering half of her fair face, gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose, her hair hanging down, and her temperament was cool and demure.
But someone still recognized her.
"Madam Chairman..."
The front desk blurted out, and the supervisor on the side immediately stopped him, "What are you yelling at!"
"It's really her!"
The front desk pointed in shock, and the supervisor looked at Mu Ning and recognized her.
"Director Gu has abdicated for more than two years, and they have divorced a long time ago." The supervisor talked about the past, shaking his head and sighing, "What a model couple they were back then, they were so enviable to others, but now... oh, what a pity. "
Hearing what the supervisor said, the two girls at the front desk couldn't help but get together to gossip.
"Didn't you hear that she married abroad? Why is she back?"
"It's strange to say that she and Director Gu have such a good relationship, how could they get divorced and remarry? What happened back then?"
"Who knew that Director Gu loves her so much and everyone is still talking about the things he did for her? Why would she come back after she has let down Director Gu so much? Could it be that her current husband treats him badly and comes back to find Director Gu? Remarry?"
"Shh, keep your voice down, don't be heard!"
"What are you afraid of? She is no longer the wife of the chairman." The front desk lady looked at Mu Ning's back as she walked towards the elevator, and said sarcastically, "I don't know how she has the nerve to come to LM. She must not even think about it. No man can accept her remarriage to Director Gu. If I were Director Gu, I wouldn’t want her."
Who would want a woman who abandoned Gu Dong and ran away with another man? Such a betrayal of the marriage and a wanton woman?
What's more, Director Gu is no longer in the capital, and he is probably hiding from her.
Mu Ning didn't have an appointment, but everyone seemed to recognize her, so they didn't stop her.
Along the way, she probably heard some comments about her, but she ignored them and took the elevator to the upper floor.
There was someone in the chairman's office. She knocked on the door, and a low "come in" came from inside.
Mu Ning was in a trance for a moment, but soon realized that the voice was different.
She opened the door. Jiang Yue was working on the computer. When he saw her from the corner of his eye, he turned his head and was stunned.
After ten seconds of silence, Mu Ning stood in front of the door, curled his lips and said hello, "Mr. Jiang."
Jiang Yue hid the emotion in his eyes, stood up and asked her to come in and sit down.
The two sat down facing each other on the sofa.
Jiang Yue lowered his head to make tea for her. Mu Ning looked around and found that the office was still the same as before, unchanged at all.
The only thing that had changed was the awkward and silent atmosphere between her and Jiang Yue.
Before, Jiang Yue would have teased her with a bunch of nonsense jokes.
"Are you planning to take over LM when you return to China this time?" Jiang Yue asked this question.
Only high-level insiders of the company knew that Gu Zhiyin donated all the shares of LM to Mu Ning.
She is now LM's largest shareholder.
"I didn't sign the share transfer agreement." Mu Ning took a sip of tea.
"Then you sign it quickly and take your company away. I don't want to care about it anymore." Jiang Yue pulled his tie and looked away, looking slightly bored.
After Gu Zhiyin left LM, he left it alone, and the company's large stalls fell into Jiang Yue's hands.
Mu Ning has never signed the share transfer agreement, so the company is naturally still under Gu Zhiyin's name.
After running the company for them for so many years, he was tired!
How can the resentment not be deep?
Mu Ning smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work these past two years."
"It's really hard work. You and Lao Gu don't care about this company. You should just stop it, donate all your assets, and close down."
Mu Ning smiled and said, "Don't you sit in the position of executive director? LM has developed very well in your hands. I suggest you don't donate it and leave it to you directly."
Jiang Yue snorted coldly and glanced at her, "Why did you come to LM? To catch up with me?"
Mu Ning suppressed his smile, held the tea cup, stared at the foam in the cup, and said nothing.
Jiang Yue glanced at her frivolously, "Are you looking for Lao Gu?"
Mu Ning still didn't speak, and the fingers holding the teacup were slightly white.
Jiang Yue lit a cigarette and said, "You are late. He is dead and buried in the western suburbs. You can go there to worship him."
Mu Ning suddenly raised his head, "What did you say?"
"Don't you know? On your wedding day, he cut his wrists and died alone at home without resuscitation."
Mu Ning's little face buried under the scarf was very pale. She shook her head, "Impossible. Some people said they saw him in Qilan Temple."
Jiang Yue sneered, "Do you believe the rumors? I buried him myself. There were many people at the funeral. If you don't believe me, ask Song Heng."
Mu Ning still didn't believe it, but she always felt that there was something hidden from her.
When it came to Song Heng, the person happened to be here.
Song Heng came to deliver materials to Jiang Yue. He didn't know what was going on in the office. He opened the door and saw Mu Ning, whose expression was exactly the same as Jiang Yue's before. He was also stunned for a moment.
But he still greeted Mu Ning gently, "Miss Mu."
"What's your name, Miss Mu? It should be Mrs. William." Jiang Yue joked loudly.
Jiang Yue's dissatisfaction and resentment towards Mu Ning were all written in his eyes, and everyone could see it.
Mu Ning understood in her heart and didn't say anything. Song Heng ignored Jiang Yue's words and walked in to put down the information, "Miss Mu, you are back."
"Yeah, I just arrived today." Mu Ning looked at Song Heng, his eyes a little moist.
The last time I saw Song Heng, he was arrested by Irving's people at the airport. He was seriously injured. Irving's people held him hostage and shot him twice in the leg.
"Is your leg okay?"
"No muscles or bones were injured, she has recovered." Song Hengwen poured tea for her and asked casually, "Are you here to see Mr. Gu?"
Mu Ning's face turned pale, "Jiang Yue said he..."
When Song Heng was about to speak, Jiang Yue kicked him and said, "Go to your business."
Song Heng glanced at Jiang Yue and said, "Miss Mu, don't listen to Mr. Jiang's nonsense. I have something to do first."
Just as he turned to leave, a clear female voice came from the door.
"Okay, okay, please be patient. I will notify Mr. Jiang immediately about this matter. I will give you a satisfactory answer after it is taken care of."
Song Heng paused and his eyes immediately fell to the door.
Then he saw Lu Xinting pushing the door open and coming in.
Lu Xinting held the information under her arm and made a call on her cell phone as she walked in. She seemed to be comforting the person on the phone with a very helpless tone.
When she raised her eyes and glanced towards the office, her eyes suddenly froze.
She looked at Mu Ning sitting on the sofa and was stunned for a long time. She couldn't hear clearly what the person on the other end of the phone was yelling.
"Sorry, Mr. Xu, I have something urgent here. I will contact you later!"
Lu Xinting hurriedly said and hung up the phone.
"Ning Ning!!!"
She didn't even have time to put away her phone, so she rushed to the sofa and hugged Mu Ning.
"You stinky girl, you've been missing for two years and can't be contacted! I thought you were going to break up with us and never come back!"
Lu Xinting's voice was choked with sobs.
Mu Ning patted her back lightly, "I have read all the messages and emails you sent. It's just special circumstances and I can't reply to you. I'm really sorry."
In the past two years, French politics has undergone earth-shaking changes.
The two major families fought fiercely with the presidential office.
The Austin family also officially declared war on Mrs. Vera.
In order to prevent Vera from attacking Mu Ning's friends, she did not dare to contact anyone in the country.
Lu Xinting scolded with red eyes, "You little heartless kid, you didn't even say a word when you came back. At least let me pick you up."
Mu Ning smiled gently, "I don't want to stir up trouble like this, why don't I give you a surprise?"
"You two want to reminisce about old times, so don't leave me here. Is there no place for you to sit outside?" Jiang Yue said angrily.
Lu Xinting wiped the corners of her eyes, glanced at the two men standing aside, and coughed lightly, "Mr. Jiang, there is a problem with the batch of goods for Mr. Xu, and you need to go to the scene to solve it."
Jiang Yue frowned, cursed "Old guy, you've been looking for trouble all day long", lit up his cigarette, stood up and left.
Before leaving, he warned me again, "Don't dirty my place. If you want to catch up on old times, go somewhere else."
Lu Xinting curled her lips and said, "Ignore him, he is getting more and more stupid now."
Since Gu Zhiyin left and Jiang Yue took his place, he has made more and more demands and his temper has become more and more irritable.
Maybe the higher you sit, the more worries you have, which makes you look a bit like Gu Zhiyin.
When Gu Zhiyin was in office, he would sit in the office drinking tea and chatting all day long.
Lu Xinting pulled Mu Ning to stand up, "Let's go to the cafe downstairs."
Just about to leave.
A voice came from the side, "Xinxin."
Oh, there's someone standing here.
Lu Xinting glanced at the man she ignored, "What are you doing? My two sisters went out to drink coffee, and you want to interfere?"
Song Heng immediately shut up.
"Why are you so cruel to Song Heng?" Mu Ning almost said something to her.
Lu Xinting sneered, "How can you look good in a quarrel?"
"..." Mu Ning closed his mouth knowingly.
Seeing the two sisters walking out arm in arm, Song Heng quickly chased after them, "I'll take you downstairs."
