Chapter 399: A Warning to Anxiao
Chapter 399
An Xiao was secretly harboring malicious intentions in her heart.
Fortunately, she hadn't meddled in An Hao's affairs recently. Even when Liu Feng abused Wen QingCui, she didn't get involved. She just knew that now that her father was in prison, her family's power and influence were gone. If An Nuan decided to get rid of her one day, she could still protect herself and remain unscathed.
And her predictions really came true.
Now An Hao was in prison. She heard that if he couldn't get forgiven by the An Corporation, he would be sentenced to over 7 years.
Liu Feng was also detained for abusing the elderly.
She had asked the lawyer. For someone like Liu Feng, according to the laws of Beiwen Country, she would probably just be detained for half a year to a year and given a warning. But she heard that as soon as Liu Feng was brought to the police station, her mental state became unstable. The police were evaluating whether she had really gone insane!
It makes sense that experiencing all this could have driven Liu Feng crazy.
Of course she didn't feel sorry for her. A woman like Liu Feng deserved to die.
If she had the chance, she would kill Liu Feng directly.
Just like she had killed An Zhao back then!
For all those people who never treated her well, she would make sure they didn't have good endings!
It was perfect that An Nuan had made a move for her right now.
But she was not grateful to An Nuan.
An Nuan and her were not on the same side.
Her goal was simple. After so many years with the identity of an illegitimate daughter, she wanted to stand at the very top of the An family legitimately. She and An Nuan were as incompatible as fire and water. The more successful An Nuan became now, the more jealous she felt.
But she was not in a hurry.
After the lesson from An Hao's downfall, she told herself she must keep calm.
Unless absolutely necessary, she would never hastily make a move against An Nuan.
She smiled slightly, appearing very intimate, "Cousin, did you want to see me for something?"
"Nothing much really, just to talk about Uncle An Hao and Auntie's matters." An Nuan seemed very calm, as if she was just casually chatting with her.
"Brother and Auntie's matters..." An Xiao appeared somewhat sad, "It's also their own fault. Back then when Brother was speaking badly of you behind your back, I tried to advise him not to treat you like that, but he wouldn't listen and even hit me, so I didn't dare advise anymore. As for how Auntie treated Grandma, I really couldn't stand watching, but Auntie said if I dared say a word, she would beat me to death too..."
As An Xiao spoke, she started crying.
"It's also because I'm weak. I knew they were doing wrong but didn't dare resist. After all, after Dad went in, no one stood on my side anymore. I was also often abused by them." An Xiao said while crying, "Now that Auntie and Brother have ended up like this, it's what they deserve. Good and evil will be repaid, they should suffer the consequences."
An Nuan just looked at An Xiao. She didn't give much opinion on An Xiao's words.
She said directly, "Since you understand, I have nothing more to comfort you with. An Xiao, in your family right now, you're the only one still doing well. You're also an An family member. As long as you work hard here, there will always be a place for you. I won't say great wealth and status, but at least you'll have food and shelter taken care of."
"I know, I'll work hard." An Xiao quickly agreed.
"Mm, since you understand, that's good." An Nuan nodded and said, "Nothing else then, get back to work."
"Yes." An Xiao respectfully left.
The moment she left, her expression changed instantly.
What she wanted was great wealth and status.
Why should they be entitled to things just because they were born into it and not her!
An Nuan watched An Xiao's departing figure.
Calling her here was first to observe her state.
Clearly this woman was reveling in it. After all, from now on no one would be able to bully her so directly anymore.
Second was to warn An Xiao to behave.
Of course it would be best if she listened. If not, she had done her duty.
What end she met in the future would be her own business!
An Nuan looked away.
She didn't want to waste any more thoughts on others.
She devoted herself wholeheartedly to work.
Currently everything with the An Corporation was going smoothly. There were no new projects needing breakthroughs either. She felt it was necessary to carry out large scale personnel changes! After all, except for her and the previous An Hao, all the important positions in the An Corporation these many years were filled by people nearing 50 years old. Experience was certainly important, but there was also a need to inject some fresh blood, so the An Corporation would not fall behind the times.
Her next major undertaking would be a major changing of the guard.
As she was planning this, An Nuan's phone suddenly rang.
She looked and saw the caller ID was "Qiqi".
"What are you doing?"
"Working, what else can I be doing?" An Nuan replied, clearly somewhat perfunctory.
"You don't want to talk to me on the phone, right?"
"..." When Xia Qiqi got sensitive, she was like Sherlock Holmes.
"How long has it been since you took the initiative to call me? Don't you know how bored a pregnant woman is every day?"
"Don't you have Aunt Xiao and Nan Chen to accompany you? With them around, shouldn't it be fun enough?"
"What nonsense are you saying? They're here just to irritate me. Fun? I'm lucky I haven't miscarried from being irritated to death!"
"Tsk tsk, stop saying things about miscarriage. The baby will get angry." An Nuan couldn't help but admonish.
Xia Qiqi acted like she didn't care. "I don't care at all! Rather it's gone than torture me."
"How has she been torturing you?" An Nuan asked.
"It's been so long, almost 4 months, I'm still nauseous to death. You have no idea how awful I feel every day. I really can't take it anymore. If this keeps going, I feel like either she dies or I perish!"
"Isn't that an exaggeration?!"
"You try getting pregnant."
"... " An Nuan felt she couldn't have a normal conversation with Xia Qiqi.
"Speaking of which, after being married to Ye Jinghuai for so long, how come you're not pregnant yet?" Xia Qiqi asked.
"We haven't planned yet. You make it sound like someone has a problem."
"There really could be a problem!" Xia Qiqi was very serious. "Playboys like Ye Jinghuai who fooled around a lot in the past will affect fertility. I'm not lying to you. You better get Ye Jinghuai checked out sooner, the earlier treated the better."
"Xia Qiqi, enough!" An Nuan got angry.
Damn.
She was even starting to feel like Ye Jinghuai might really have a problem.
"I'm just giving you a reminder, and you're already annoyed. That's an admission that Ye Jinghuai really does have a problem." Xia Qiqi concluded.
An Nuan really didn't want to waste words with Xia Qiqi anymore.
It was simply brain cell killing.
Xia Qiqi looked at the phone that An Nuan had hung up.
She pouted in displeasure.
She was just concerned for her.
Yet she was unappreciative.
Xia Qiqi put down her phone and suddenly felt a wave of nausea in her stomach.
"Ugh."
Xia Qiqi miserably covered her mouth.
Damn!
Just let her die already!
