From an abandoned girl to a wealthy lady

Chapter 17: The Storm Strikes Back: The Turn of the Situation

Wen Nuan walked out of the elevator and went straight to the meeting room.

From a distance, Lin Xiao was seen standing at the door. She was wearing a well-tailored professional suit, but it couldn't hide the pride in her eyes.

Seeing Wen Nuan, Lin Xiao raised his eyebrows, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he silently said, "You're dead."

Wen Nuan felt nothing in her heart, and even felt like laughing.

I’ve seen all sorts of storms, is this it?

Small scene!

She walked past Lin Xiao without looking at him, leaving a look that said "just wait and see".

In the conference room, senior executives from various departments are already in place.

Director Chen sat in the chief seat with a gloomy expression. He looked towards the door from time to time, obviously waiting for Lin Xiao's arrival.

After Wen Nuan sat down, she opened the prepared plan document, took a deep breath, and told herself: Stay calm, we can win!

Lin Xiao arrived late, wearing high heels, twisting her slender waist, and exuding the aura of "I am the most beautiful" all the way.

She walked to Director Chen and whispered a few words, and Director Chen's expression eased a little.

Wen Nuan rolled her eyes: So much drama!

The meeting started, Wen Nuan stood up, turned on the projector, and began to explain her plan.

Her voice was steady, her logic was clear, and her data was detailed, fully demonstrating the advantages of the plan.

The senior executives who were originally skeptical also began to listen carefully and nodded in agreement from time to time.

Mo Han sat aside, occasionally adding a few words, his eyes full of appreciation and support, he was simply the best assist.

Director Chen felt very uncomfortable and his expression became more and more unsightly.

He wanted to interrupt Wen Nuan several times, but was stopped by Mo Han with a look.

Seeing that the situation was becoming increasingly unfavorable to him, Director Chen began to sweat on his forehead.

After Wen Nuan finished her explanation, she looked around and raised the corners of her mouth slightly.

Become!

At this moment, Lin Xiao suddenly stood up...

Lin Xiao suddenly stood up and covered her mouth in feigned surprise. "Oh, Wen Nuan, is there something wrong with the data in your plan? Why do I remember that some parts are very similar to mine?" She deliberately dragged out the last word, her eyes full of provocation.

There was a sudden commotion in the conference room, and everyone was whispering, looking at Wen Nuan with a bit more suspicion.

Wen Nuan sneered inwardly: Here comes my brother!

Just waiting for you!

She calmly opened another file, "Ms. Lin, you said there was a problem with my data. May I ask where the problem is? I have the complete survey data and analysis report, as well as all the original materials. You are welcome to correct me at any time. As for you, I advise you to explain the proposal you submitted before. Why is it 90% similar to another company's proposal? Is this what you call 'creativity'? " Wen Nuan said, projecting the documents prepared by Lawyer Zhou onto the big screen. It was the evidence of plagiarism of Lin Xiao's proposal and the proof that she had forged the data.

There was an uproar in the conference room, and everyone looked at Lin Xiao with contempt.

Lin Xiao's face was pale, his lips were trembling, but he couldn't utter a word.

Mo Han looked at everything happening in front of him, a barely perceptible smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.

He cleared his throat and said, "I believe in Wen Nuan as a person and in her professional ability. I have been involved in this project throughout and know every detail. If anyone has any questions about Wen Nuan, you can come to me directly." His tone was firm and unquestionable, and everyone present felt the powerful aura emanating from him.

Director Chen's face was pale and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

He realized with a wave of panic that he might be on the wrong side.

Wen Nuan looked at Lin Xiao's miserable appearance, and felt no pleasure in her heart, only endless exhaustion.

But she knew that this was far from enough.

She took a deep breath, her eyes becoming sharp, "Since Miss Lin likes to 'borrow' other people's ideas so much, then I have no choice but to 'share' some of your 'masterpieces'..." She pulled out another document from the folder and slowly placed it on the table.

Wen Nuan slammed the document onto the table with a thud, her tone as cold as the Siberian wind. "Here are the 'behind the scenes' of Ms. Lin's brilliant performance—how she bribed her online trolls to discredit me, how she spread rumors to sabotage company projects, and even the phone records of her collusion with competitors! What a spectacle! Even the Oscars owe you an Oscar!"

The conference room exploded instantly, and everyone's eyes turned from contempt to anger when they looked at Lin Xiao.

Director Chen's face turned pale. He never thought that he would be fooled by this woman!

"You...you are slandering me!" Lin Xiao pointed at Wen Nuan angrily, but she couldn't produce any evidence to refute her, because the evidence Wen Nuan produced was conclusive, and each one accurately hit her sore spot.

She was like a peacock stripped of its feathers, her ugly appearance exposed.

"Whether it's slander or not, everyone knows it." Wen Nuan sneered, her eyes sharp as a knife, "Ms. Lin, goodbye, I won't see you off!"

Lin Xiao couldn't stand it any longer, so he covered his face and fled, leaving the room full of ridicule and discussion.

This meeting ended with Lin Xiao's complete failure.

After the meeting, Mo Han pulled Wen Nuan into his arms and hugged her tightly.

Leaning warmly against his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, all the grievances and fatigue disappeared.

"Thank you for your hard work." Mo Han whispered in her ear, his voice so gentle that it could drip water. "From now on, I will never let you suffer this kind of injustice again."

Wen Nuan nodded gently, her eyes slightly red.

Mo Han held her face and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. "You look so beautiful today, like a queen."

Wen Nuan burst into laughter and nuzzled into his arms, "Then, Your Majesty, is it time to reward the people based on their merits?"

A sly glint flashed in Mo Han's eyes. "Of course. What reward does my Queen want?"

Wen Nuan stood on tiptoe and whispered in his ear, "I want..."

"Knock, knock, knock--" a knock on the door interrupted their sweetness.

Assistant Wu stood at the door, looking a little anxious, "Boss Mo, something happened..."

Assistant Wu's sudden appearance instantly dissipated the ambiguous atmosphere in the office.

Wen Nuan withdrew from Mo Han's arms, straightened her clothes, and resumed the demeanor of a strong career woman.

"What's the matter?" Mo Han's voice returned to its usual calmness, but the tenderness in his eyes had not completely faded, which made Assistant Wu silently eat a mouthful of dog food.

"Mr. Mo, Director Chen and several shareholders have requested an emergency board meeting to re-evaluate the feasibility of the 'Starry Glory' project." Assistant Wu carefully observed Mo Han's expression, fearing that something might explode.

"Heh," Mo Han sneered, "It seems some people still refuse to give up." He turned to look at Wen Nuan, his eyes full of doting, "Wife, it seems you still have a long way to go on your journey to becoming a queen."

Wen Nuan raised her eyebrows, a hint of fighting spirit flashing in her eyes, "Then let them see what the Queen's Scepter is!"

At the emergency board meeting, Director Chen and others were aggressive, questioning Wen Nuan's ability, and some even proposed replacing the project leader.

Wen Nuan remained calm, refuted their doubts with reason and evidence, and resolved their questions one by one.

"Director Chen, you said my plan has loopholes. Could you please tell me what they are?" Wen Nuan looked directly at Director Chen with sharp eyes, her tone carrying a hint of provocation. "You can't deny my efforts just by saying that, can you?"

Director Chen was overwhelmed by the warm atmosphere and hesitated for a long time without being able to explain what was going on.

At that moment, Lawyer Zhou walked in, holding a document in his hand. "Dear directors, I have been entrusted by President Mo to investigate the preliminary preparations for the 'Star Glory' project. According to my findings, Lin Xiao committed serious dereliction of duty during his tenure as project leader and is suspected of embezzling public funds..."

Lawyer Zhou's words were like a bombshell, causing an uproar in the conference room.

Director Chen and others turned pale instantly. They didn't expect that Lin Xiao's affairs would involve them.

"Impossible! This is all slander!" Director Chen stood up suddenly and wanted to refute, but was interrupted by Lawyer Zhou.

"Director Chen, please calm down. I have sufficient evidence here to prove that there is an improper transfer of benefits between you and Lin Xiao..." Lawyer Zhou displayed the documents in his hand one by one. Each piece of evidence was like a sharp sword, stabbing Director Chen and others.

The situation reversed in an instant. Director Chen and others, who had been so aggressive, now wilted like eggplants hit by frost.

Wen Nuan watched all this, a cold smile on her lips. She knew that she had won this battle.

Mo Han walked over to Wen Nuan and gently put his arm around her shoulders. "Wife, you're awesome!"

Wen Nuan leaned in Mo Han's arms with a victorious smile on her face.

After the meeting, Wen Nuan and Mo Han returned to the office.

"Next, it's time for us to fight back." There was a cold glint in Wen Nuan's eyes.

Mo Han nodded, a fierce look flashing in his eyes, "If you dare to touch my people, you will pay the price!"

Suddenly, the office phone rang, and Assistant Wu's voice came from the phone, "Mr. Mo, there was an accident at the construction site of the 'Star Glory' project..."
