Chapter 312: The Nan Family’s Bankruptcy
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Her ears were filled with Zheng Yue’s drunken words.
Murong Qiao raised her eyebrows and reached out to pick up the doc.u.ment.
She opened it and looked thoughtful.
She remembered this project. Previously, she had even asked someone to investigate it. The land was extremely popular. The plan that Nan Kang had put in so much effort to develop could be said to be outstanding.
And she had spent so much money and effort to push Zheng Yue to Nan Kang’s side. Wasn’t it for this contract?
“My child…” Zheng Yue suddenly cried.
Zheng Yue cried and laughed, as if she was laughing at what would happen to Nan Kang.
She was like a lunatic, driven crazy by alcohol. Her words were incoherent.
Murong Qiao stood up and looked down at her. She was not in the mood to accompany her at all.
“I still have something on, so I’ll leave first.”
Before she left, Murong Qiao picked up the doc.u.ments on the table and carried them out. She planned to take them away with her.
When Zheng Yue woke up in a daze, she realized that the doc.u.ments on the table were gone.
She thought that perhaps she did not remember where she had left it. In any case, it was not an important thing.
After Murong Qiao left Zheng Yue’s house, she immediately called An Nuo and asked her out.
“Why are you looking for me at this time, Qiao?” An Nuo rushed over.
Murong Qiao did not say anything else and handed the doc.u.ments to her. “1 remember that your family has been competing for a piece of land recently?”
An Nuo nodded. She had heard her father mention this before.
“For you.” Murong Qiao smiled.
Not only could she see Nan Kang fail, but she could also help the An Family. Such a thing was simply profitable.
Murong Qiao couldn’t wait to see Nan Kang’s expression the next day.
The next day.
Next, it’s—”
The conference emcee announced the name of Nan Kang’s company.
However, Nan Kang’s expression was no longer as confident as last night.m
“I don’t know…” The secretary explained helplessly.
The plans and doc.u.ments that had been prepared had disappeared, and the computer was blank.
Nan Kang’s expression stiffened slightly, and he frowned, looking like he was about to flare up.
She had to fumble the ball at this juncture!
In the huge conference room, everyone’s puzzled gazes gathered on Nan Kang, making him suffer.
“There might be some problems with our doc.u.ments… Let the next person go first,” Nan Kang said apologetically.
The secretary was also so anxious that her head was covered in sweat, but she couldn’t find what she wanted after searching for a long time.
“Mr. An.”
The person after Nan Kang was An Nuo’s father, An Xinzhi.
He stood up calmly and connected the device to display the plan he had brought on the big screen.
“Everyone, this is the plan 1 prepared. Please take a look here…”
As An Xinzhi’s methodical voice and clear logic sounded, everyone’s gazes gradually moved along with his words, and from time to time, their eyes revealed approval.
But among everyone, only Nan Kang stared fixedly at the plan on the big screen, his eyes almost popping out.
The bidding plan that An Xinzhi had taken out was 70 to 80% similar to the one he had prepared. The difference was that this one was better optimized and was far more outstanding than his.
However, Nan Kang recognized at a glance that this doc.u.ment had been modified according to his copy!
This was his doc.u.ment!
“This—” The secretary was also speechless.
Nan Kang could barely control his composure, and his expression was extremely ugly.
“That’s all. These are my bids.”
After An Xinzhi finished speaking, he returned to his seat under the thunderous applause and slowly sat down, his posture calm.
From the looks of admiration on the others’ faces, it was not difficult to tell that An Xinzhi’s bidding was quite good.
Hearing the applause that should have belonged to him, Nan Kang’s heart was bleeding.
“Mr. Nan Kang, is your bidding plan ready?”
The emcee changed the topic and asked him.
However, he could not even smile. He looked at An Xinzhi with a dark expression and met the other party’s slightly puzzled gaze.
Nan Kang had lost this bid completely, and the company no longer had any hope of making a comeback.
An Nuo then told Murong Qiao the good news of their successful bidding.
“Congratulations.” Murong Qiao smiled.
She held the phone to her ear with her left hand and listened to An Nuo speak happily on the other end. Her right hand held the mouse and brought up the current situation of Nan Kang’s company.
As expected, Nan Kang’s company went bankrupt.
They had failed to land the bid, and everything Nan Kang had bet on had become the price of failure.
Knock, knock.
There was a knock on the door.
Murong Qiao hung up the phone and looked up at the door to see Huo Yichen standing there.
“Why are you here!” Her eyes lit up.
Murong Qiao’s happy expression was written all over his face. The moment she saw Huo Yichen, a smile bloomed on her face.
Huo Yichen’s cold expression softened slightly. “I’m here to pick you up from work.”
Murong Qiao simply turned off the computer and walked down with Huo Yichen.
“You were smiling very happily back there,” he asked.
When Huo Yichen came in, he saw Murong Qiao chatting happily on the phone with someone else.
Murong Qiao raised her eyebrows. “Are you jealous?”
She asked lightly, and Huo Yichen’s eyes revealed helplessness, but he did not explain.
“I’m on the phone with An Nuo.” Fortunately, Murong Qiao did not have the habit of baiting people.
Huo Yichen nodded as he listened. His focused appearance aroused one’s desire to confide in him. Occasionally, he would interject in response.
Unlike his coldness to others, all his softness was only reserved for Murong Qiao.
Huo Yichen stood beside Murong Qiao, afraid that she would slow down if he couldn’t keep up. “1’11 book the restaurant you like tonight…”
Huo Yichen helped her carry her bag and held Murong Qiao’s hand with his free hand as they walked out of the elevator.
The back view of the two of them holding hands was seen by the young lady at the company’s front desk, making her extremely envious.
“I want to fall in love,” she sighed.
Another person glanced at her. “What nonsense are you thinking? 1’11 wash my hair upside down if you have such a boyfriend.”
“I can’t even think about it?!”
In just a day, the Nan family was completely destroyed.
Because the bidding failed, the Nan family’s house which was under mortgage was confiscated by the bank, and Nan Kang and his sons were forced to move out.
“Can we not live here?” Nan Hao frowned. He was used to living a good life, and he couldn’t bear to stay in such a bare and ordinary house.
Nan Xuan’s face turned cold. “Don’t be willful.”
This house was a last resort. Nan Xuan had rented a house outside so that the family could barely have a place to live.
“But—” Nan Hao wanted to say something else.
However, when his gaze landed on Nan Kang, who was slumped on the sofa and wearing a dark expression, he stopped talking and stormed into the room inside, slamming the door.
Ever since the bid failed, Nan Kang has been like this. He didn’t say much and had aged unbelievably in just a few days.
Seeing that Nan Hao was still so immature, Nan Xuan frowned and his mood became even worse.
After a moment of silence, he let out a shaky breath. “Dad, rest well.”
After the company collapsed, he found a new job and applied for leave at the last minute. He still had to return to the company later.
With that, Nan Xuan walked out without looking back.
Now that things had developed to this point, looking at Nan Kang’s current state, Nan Xuan could only step up to act as the head of the family and arrange everything.
After all, he was his father.
Even if he had done something wrong in the past, Nan Xuan couldn’t just leave Nan Kang alone.
Nan Xuan opened the car door and got in. His hand was on the steering wheel, but he did not start it for a long time..
