Yun Wenqing’s words left Jiang Wenwen completely stunned.

She stood there in a daze, unable to react. It took her more than ten seconds to snap out of it, and just as she was about to explain, she saw Yun Wenqing rise from her seat and say firmly, “Jiang Wenwen, see him out!”

The already tense atmosphere instantly dropped to freezing point.

Standing in the office, Jiang Wenwen looked at her cousin, then at Xiao Mu. She opened her mouth but found herself at a loss for words.

She had never expected things to turn out like this!

This was completely beyond her expectations.

Jiang Wenwen had assumed that, as an experienced salesperson, her cousin would at least have the professionalism to listen to what Xiao Mu had to say. But for some reason, Yun Wenqing was unusually impatient today.

This put her in an incredibly difficult position.

Deep down, Jiang Wenwen believed that Xiao Mu had the financial means to make the purchase. But with her cousin’s unwavering stance, she had no idea how to persuade her.

After hesitating for a long moment, she finally turned to Xiao Mu and apologized sincerely, “Xiao Mu, I’m really sorry. My cousin isn’t in a good mood today. How about I escort you out for now? I’ll explain everything to her later, okay? Please don’t be mad—I’ll make sure to clear things up for you!”

Jiang Wenwen ultimately chose to believe in Xiao Mu because he was the first boy to ever surprise her multiple times.

She found him trustworthy, and after interacting with him twice, she felt that he wasn’t someone who just talked big.

But even though she believed him, faced with her cousin’s firm decision, she had no choice but to send Xiao Mu away first.

However, at that moment, Xiao Mu suddenly lifted his head and asked, “Hmm? Explain? Explain what?”

Jiang Wenwen hesitated, then answered in a quieter voice, “Explain… explain that you really do have the ability to buy a villa in Xuanwu Zhongshan.”

For some reason, as she looked at Xiao Mu’s delicate and youthful face, an inexplicable sense of unease rose within her.

She wasn’t sure if she was worried that her cousin had offended Xiao Mu or if she was feeling guilty for failing to serve him properly.

Just as this unease started to spread in her heart, Xiao Mu casually stood up from his seat. His gaze met Yun Wenqing’s directly as he said with a faint smile, “There’s no need for an explanation. It’s your right not to believe me—hold onto that disbelief as tightly as you want. I’m leaving. Goodbye.”

After saying that, Mu Bai turned around without hesitation and headed for the door.

Watching this unfold, Jiang Wenwen suddenly felt a deep sense of loss.

It was this very feeling that made her instinctively reach out to stop Xiao Mu, hoping to convince him to stay.

But before she could say anything, the office door suddenly swung open again.

Two men walked in, engaged in a friendly conversation and smiling.

The moment Jiang Wenwen recognized one of them, she finally understood why her cousin had been so impatient earlier.

Zhang Guozhi—the president of Jingtian Real Estate and their ultimate boss!

Jiang Wenwen never imagined that their company president would unexpectedly visit their small sales office today, bringing along a friend.

It wasn’t just Jiang Wenwen who realized what was happening—her cousin, Yun Wenqing, reacted even more quickly.

She immediately stepped away from her desk, put on a flattering smile, and hurried to the door, bowing slightly as she said respectfully, “President Zhang, I’m so sorry! I got caught up with something and couldn’t come to greet you and your friend. You’re not mad at me, are you?”

By the end of her sentence, her tone had even taken on a coquettish, girlish quality.

However, her deliberate attempt at being endearing fell far short of the natural sweetness of a truly charming woman.

Zhang Guozhi, the middle-aged man referred to as President Zhang, frowned slightly and said with mild displeasure, “Make sure to manage your work properly. I don’t want to see this happen again.”

“Yes, yes! Thank you for your generosity, President Zhang! Please, have a seat with your friend.”

Despite his reprimand, Yun Wenqing continued to smile ingratiatingly, fully aware that these two men were individuals she could only look up to for the rest of her life.

One was her company president, worth billions.

The other was a seemingly young man, only about twenty-five or twenty-six, but Yun Wenqing knew—he was the one who must never be offended.

Nalan Yunshao—the eldest son of the Nalan family!

A twenty-something young man who had already ascended to the pinnacle of Nanjing’s elite.

However, at this moment, Yun Wenqing noticed that Nalan Yunshao’s gaze wasn’t on her at all.

“Huh? What…”

Curious, she followed his line of sight—only to find that he was staring at the very same boy she had just dismissed with disdain.

At the same time, President Zhang also glanced over with mild curiosity and asked, “Hmm? Who is this young man?”

Yun Wenqing hurriedly answered, “Oh, just a clueless kid who insists on buying a luxury home in Xuanwu Zhongshan. I was just about to ask him to leave—”

Before she could finish, the young man beside her suddenly stepped forward.

Nalan Yunshao took a few strides toward the boy, and then, in a scene that Yun Wenqing could never have imagined—

He smiled.

Not just any smile, but a rare, genuine one.

Then, to everyone’s shock, he slightly bowed, extended his right hand, and greeted the boy in a friendly, respectful tone:

“Brother Leng, long time no see.”

At that moment, Yun Wenqing stood frozen in place, utterly dumbfounded.

She wasn’t the only one.

Jiang Wenwen was also in complete shock, and even President Zhang’s face showed an expression of surprise.
