After returning to Xi Min Square, Ji Nuan successfully received the document of approval from the National Land Office.

“Boss, since the land and property prices have been rising recently, shall we sell all of the properties nearby?” Xiao Ba asked.

Ji Nuan quietly sat in the car, staring at the heavy rain outside as she indifferently replied, “No.”

“Why not? It wasn’t easy for the prices to finally increase. If we don’t sell, we might start losing money again…”

Ji Nuan chuckled lightly, glancing at Xiao Ba. “After watching me purchase several more wasteland with the money invested by Mo Corporation, you must have been worried to the point of losing sleep, haven’t you?”

Xiao Ba smiled and nodded. However, she still said, “But I believe in Boss’s instincts. Since you dared to do it, you must have your reasons.”

“At least you’re good at talking.” Ji Nuan chuckled.

Although she knew the money would be earned, she still did not dare to be too careless. If she snatched all the opportunities based on the knowledge she had of the next ten years, she would become a target for ridicule.

In the business world where people were often ‘eaten without leaving any bones,’ how many could gain a fortune overnight and how many were not immediately noticed. Every step would be the same as walking on a tightrope—akin to stepping on a knife’s blade.

What Ji Nuan wanted to do was to keep her ambitious heart and to take steady steps in the prosperous era about to begin. Every share distributed had to enter her pocket; no one was allowed to snatch it away.

What she wanted to do was to gradually develop the studio into a property company brand that belonged to her. Bit by bit, she would transform the investment in her hands into profit. She wanted to obtain the power to support herself and to support the entire Ji family.

She needed to do better so that there was no need for Mo Jingshen to stand in front of her and protect her. What she wanted to do, if the occasion arose, was to be able to protect Mo Jingshen as well.

All of a sudden, Xiao Ba pointed at the laptop placed on her lap and shouted, “Boss, quick, take a look at the company’s electronic mailbox! The YJ Group says they want to buy the piece of land we have by the side of Xi Min Square! They’re offering two hundred million yuan and they sent such an official email! It’s two hundred million yuan, ah. Isn’t that the price CEO Han originally paid to buy the land? We actually didn’t make any loss! Boss, how did you guess this would happen! This is amazing! When we received the document of approval earlier, I was still worried no one would accept the price you’ve set. But someone actually wants it!”

Ji Nuan raised her brows, speaking calmly, “Send them a reply with the company’s name. Remember to be polite and don’t offend them. Let them know we won’t accept the price of two hundred million yuan. If they are sincere about purchasing it, let them come to the studio to discuss this face-to-face with me.”

“Why won’t you accept it? Previously, even when the price was lower than two hundred million, no one wanted to buy it. Right now, we can finally earn back the money we lost. Furthermore, Boss, weren’t you just planning to sell that piece of land away?”

“Just do as I say.” Ji Nuan indifferently glanced at her.

Xiao Ba saw the composed and relaxed expression on Ji Nuan. Although she did not understand very well, and the fear of losing this opportunity was akin to cutting her own flesh, she could only listen to Ji Nuan since she was the boss.

Glancing at Xiao Ba’s upset expression, Ji Nuan smiled and did not speak any further.

In Ji Nuan’s memory, the largest architectural complex in Xi Min Square ten years later was precisely located in the piece of land she now owned. The developer would be the renowned property corporation BGY Group. If history was going to repeat itself, based on the BGY’s old CEO’s keen foresight, there was no way he would lose the opportunity to obtain this precious land. He would definitely show up.

The price would naturally not be as simple as two hundred million yuan.

After receiving the document of approval, Ji Nuan naturally attended an evening ball jointly organized by the town council and the business alliance.

She wore an off-the-shoulder nude gown and had some light make up on. She was originally an attractive woman, and at this moment, her beauty stood out. Her lips were red, and her skin was snow-white. Under the gown was a pair of long and slender legs. She wore a pair of heels and left her usual careless vibe behind, carrying the charming taste of a woman.

For years on end, she had always been the beauty no one could take their eyes away from. Tonight, she made a rare appearance as the owner of the studio and attracted even more attention and shock.

Firstly, it was because the Eldest Miss Ji had not attended such an official occasion in a long time. Secondly, it was because after marrying into the Mo family, she had become even more low-key and rarely showed her face. Previously, when she showed up at the joint evening ball organized by Shine and Mo Corporation, she had been carried away by Mo Jingshen. Although most of the attendees here today did not catch the scene from that night, they had at least heard Ji Nuan’s position as Mrs. Mo was very secure.

Most people did not expect Ji Nuan would really be able to stand firmly by Mo Jingshen’s side, thinking she’ll be chased out of the Mo family.

A large portion of Hai Cheng’s reputable wealthy ladies had all hoped Ji Nuan would not be able to live well. However, the fact was things did not turn out as they expected.

Ji Nuan was as beautiful as she had been in the beginning. In fact, compared to her previous arrogant and outstanding self, she had gained more composure and reservation. The delicate, light make up concealed her powerful, attractive face. The low-key evening gown made her appear indifferent. She was beautiful, but she was no longer an arrogant beauty, but an indifferent, cold beauty.

Furthermore, the female bodyguard by her side also attracted people’s eyes.

“Mrs. Mo, I’ll wait for you by the side. If anything happens, I’ll immediately come.” Feng Ling understood it was not suitable for her to follow by Ji Nuan’s side for today’s occasion. After accompanying Ji Nuan in, she stepped away.

Ji Nuan had Feng Ling head off to the side to grab a bite while she stepped in. She was mindless of the crowd’s gaze, maintaining a polite smile toward everyone.

However, she did not expect she would actually encounter Sheng Yihan in such place. Seeing his tall figure dressed in a suit from afar, Ji Nuan instantly choked.

“What are you hiding from?” Just as she stepped away from the crowd and was about to approach several officials from the National Land Office, she was blocked by Sheng Yihan who had suddenly appeared next to her.

Ji Nuan did not pay him any mind, nor did she respond to him. She turned and began a conversation with several distinguished individuals that had some friendly relations with the Ji family, doing her best to ignore Sheng Yihan’s silhouette and the obvious looks he was giving her.

Seeing her obvious intent to avoid him, Sheng Yihan smiled and did not rush to approach. He waited as those distinguished individuals left after greeting her and then watched as the little woman spun around in the crowd. She was unable to find someone familiar to speak with and could only unwillingly turn back to eye him.

He glanced at her snow-white neck and wrists; unlike the other wealthy ladies who wore luxurious accessories, she did not even put on a simple bracelet or diamond watch. Yet, she was a display of unique beauty.

Ji Nuan recalled the Shine Group’s evening ball when she had sat in his car after drinking some wine. Back then, the anger and alcohol had really gotten to her head. Right now, she naturally had to avoid him if she could. She did not wish to have any more interaction with him.

She turned, thinking of leaving the crowd. However, because she had turned too quickly, she unknowingly bumped into a beautiful lady holding a glass of red wine.

The lady softly cried out as the red wine spilled on her body. She then spoke in rage, “Are you blind!”
