Chapter 862: Eldest Daughter-in-law of the Zongzheng Family
Ning Shu paid a bit of attention to the Zongzheng family. The current Zongzheng family really was lively. All sorts of drama were playing out and romance as well as familial love were being tormented by the desire for power and wealth.
Zongzheng Bin wanted to take back his control of the corporation, but how could his younger brother who had just gotten the post possibly hand it back to him obediently? They started competing under false pretenses of friendliness.
Every person had their own selfish desires and goals, so it made the Zongzheng family situation extremely strange.
Wonder if An Nuan would be able to get used to this complicated life of the wealthy? Ning Shu felt that with how simple An Nuan was, she would definitely end up being used.
An Nuan was the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zongzheng family, the wife of the first-in-line to inherit, so a lot of people were watching her.
This kind of life made An Nuan feel very worn out. She would have to carefully layer meanings every time she opened her mouth and also had to mull over what other people meant when they said something for a very long time. Just thinking about that kind of life made Ning Shu feel tired for An Nuan.
Ning Shu would sometimes see An Nuan when she went to partic.i.p.ate in business gatherings. Now, her face always contained weariness. Not even the exquisite makeup could cover up this weariness. She did her best to converse with other rich married women gracefully and her way of speaking was now very deliberate.
The current An Nuan was no longer that blessed lucky girl who was doted on by Gong Luo so much that she seemed to live in paradise. Although Zongzheng Bin loved her, he was busy with trying to get back his power. Having fallen into the fight for power, he could only fight to his last gasp.
As of now, An Nuan had to help Zongzheng Bin obtain resources and connections so that Zongzheng Bin would be able to obtain success in this struggle for the right of inheritance.
Ning Shu shrugged. Why didn’t the current An Nuan say that Zongzheng Bin only cared about power?
When Ning Shu recalled how An Nuan had accused her of being a cold-blooded capitalist who only cared about money, she felt the urge to laugh.
When An Nuan turned around and happened to meet Ning Shu’s gaze, Ning Shu lifted her wine cup towards An Nuan. After a moment of hesitation, An Nuan prepared to walk towards Ning Shu, but Ning Shu turned and left.
She didn’t want to get involved with An Nuan at all.
An Nuan stared at this man’s back, her face flushed with slight embarra.s.sment. Suddenly, she felt like crying a little. She was really tired.
Sometimes she really couldn’t understand Zongzheng Bin’s actions. An Nuan wanted to make him give up on this fight and live a more ordinary life. No matter what, it was still better than endlessly fighting like this.
However, whenever she said this, Zongzheng Bin would be really angry and would hug her, saying that things would be better in the future, that everything would be fine once they reached success.
But when would success come?
An Nuan couldn’t see the end of this. She worked hard to learn how to help Zongzheng Bin, but this kind of life made her feel very lost and empty.
There were luxurious clothes, brand name bags, luxury cars escorting her, and the housekeepers attending to her.
However, An Nuan felt that this wasn’t the kind of life she should be living. She shouldn’t be spending her life in this kind of endless conflict.
Ning Shu didn’t really care what was going on with An Nuan. After a period of time breaking into the topic and working hard at it, Ning Shu was getting increasingly better that managing the Gong Family Corporation. As expected, learning more and practicing more did give results. Sometimes Ning Shu would have to work until two in the morning.
She wasn’t as intelligent as Gong Luo, so for the sake of not revealing her lack of knowledge and experience in front of the subordinates and the board of directors, she had truly put in a lot of work.
“Ding, task completed. Leaving task world.” 2333 who had disappeared for a long time finally made a sound.
Ning Shu laughed coldly. Following that, she was. .h.i.t by a wave of dizziness and when she opened her eyes again, she was back in the system s.p.a.ce. She loosened a breath in relief as she looked at the familiar décor. She had really been worried that she would be stuck in that task world and stuck in a man’s body for the rest of her life.
When Ning Shu glanced down and saw that her soul was so thin that it was barely visible, she was shocked. Her soul had already become much stronger than before and she had never had a task that used up almost all of her soul energy.
With her soul the way it was now, a gust of wind would probably be enough to make her vanish.
