From an abandoned girl to a wealthy lady

Chapter 253: A Turnaround in Internal Troubles: A Glimmer of Hope for Cooperation

After the senior executives of Li's partner left, the atmosphere of the celebration banquet was still warm, but there was a sense of warmth that was a little strange.

On the surface, Mr. Li expressed his support for her and even praised her in front of everyone. However, she keenly noticed that Mr. Li's smile lacked sincerity and was more calculated.

It was a compromise made out of helplessness, not genuine cooperation.

A chill rose from her back, making her shiver.

Mo Han noticed her uneasiness, hugged her tighter, and whispered in her ear, "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything." Wen Nuan gave him a reassuring smile, but her inner vigilance did not diminish in the slightest.

In the next few days, Wen Nuan cooperated with Mr. Li's work on the surface, but secretly stepped up the investigation into him.

She knew that a shrewd man like Mr. Li would never give up his own interests easily.

Sure enough, through some unknown channels, Wen Nuan discovered that Mr. Li secretly contacted several other shareholders who opposed the cooperation project, had frequent secret meetings, and even had some encrypted email exchanges.

Although these evidences are not enough to completely bring down Mr. Li, they are enough to cause him to fall into a crisis of trust within the company.

A sneer appeared on Wen Nuan's lips as she gently placed the documents in her hand on the table.

"Mr. Li," she said to the person on the other end of the phone, "I hope you can come to my office at ten o'clock tomorrow morning. There are some things I think you need to see." After she finished speaking, she hung up the phone with a gleam in her eyes.

Wen Nuan was in the conference room, displaying the collected evidence one by one on the projection screen.

The contents of encrypted emails were decrypted, Mr. Li’s secret meetings with other shareholders were photographed, and even their conversations were recorded.

The evidence is irrefutable and cannot be denied.

After seeing these evidences, the faces of those partners who were originally wavering turned ugly.

They were previously hesitating whether to support President Li, but now they have changed sides and clearly stated that they stand on Wen Nuan's side.

Mr. Li's power shrank rapidly like a punctured balloon.

His face was pale and his lips were trembling, but he was unable to refute.

Zhang's foreign competitor felt resentful when he saw Wen Nuan gradually gaining a foothold within the partnership.

He originally wanted to discredit Wen Nuan through public opinion and spread some false news about her in order to damage her reputation.

However, Wen Nuan was already prepared.

She collected a lot of evidence in advance to prove that the news was fabricated.

When competitors began their smear campaign, Wen Nuan immediately refuted it with facts and made public clarifications through the media.

Not only did the competitor's conspiracy fail to succeed, but it also put itself in an embarrassing situation and damaged its reputation.

Just when Wen Nuan thought everything was settled, her cell phone rang.

It was Wang, the international business consultant, who called.

"Miss Wen Nuan, I just received a piece of news..." His voice was hesitant, "about diplomatic official Sun..." Wen Nuan's heart sank suddenly.

"what did he say?"

Advisor Wang hesitantly said that Sun, a foreign affairs official, hinted that due to subtle changes in the international situation, policies that were originally favorable to the cooperation project might change.

This was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue.

Wen Nuan took a deep breath and tried to stay calm.

She thanked Advisor Wang, hung up the phone, and immediately contacted Translator Zhao to help arrange a meeting with Sun's diplomatic officials.

Translator Zhao's efficiency was as low as ever. He explained haltingly that Official Sun had a busy schedule and the meeting could not be arranged for at least three days.

Just as Wen Nuan was waiting anxiously, Mo Han's video call came in.

On the screen, Mo Han looked at her with concern, and his gentle voice seemed to have magic, soothing the anxiety in her heart.

"What's wrong? You don't look well." He noticed something was wrong with her at a glance.

Wen Nuan briefly told him the situation.

Mo Han didn't say much to comfort her, but just listened quietly, and her loving eyes gave Wen Nuan great encouragement.

He knew that what she needed was not comfort, but support.

He believed she could handle it all.

"Don't worry," Mo Han's low voice carried a reassuring power, "I believe you." These few short words were worth a thousand words, filling Wen Nuan's heart with warmth and strengthening her determination.

Wen Nuan cheered herself up again. She knew that instead of waiting passively, it was better to take the initiative.

She called together the core members of the partnership overnight and came up with a new profit distribution plan.

This plan fully takes into account the interests of all parties and cleverly utilizes the current international situation to turn potential risks into opportunities.

She explained every detail of the plan clearly and confidently.

The partners present were all impressed by her wisdom and courage and expressed their agreement.

The originally unstable situation was instantly reversed because of Wen Nuan's decisiveness and wisdom.

Not only did she successfully resolve internal conflicts, but she also further consolidated her dominant position.

After the meeting, Wen Nuan rubbed her aching temples and was about to take a break when suddenly there was a knock on the office door.

"Miss Wen Nuan," Translator Zhao's voice rang out from outside the door, "Diplomat Sun...he...he's here..."

Diplomat Sun walked into the warm office with a serious face, followed by translator Zhao, who followed closely and looked a little embarrassed.

He first exchanged a few pleasantries, praising Wen Nuan's efforts and contributions to the cooperative project, and then changed the subject and his tone became serious.

"Ms. Wen Nuan, the international situation has changed recently..." He paused, as if weighing his words, "some...uncontrollable factors."

Translator Zhao added, "It's... that... that... trade barriers! Yes, trade barriers! And that... exchange rate fluctuations! Yes, yes, that's it!" His stammering explanation made the already tense atmosphere even more awkward.

Foreign Minister Sun cleared his throat and continued, "These changes may have some... new impacts on our cooperation projects. The specific impact is difficult to assess at this time. We need to observe further before making a decision." He handed Wen Nuan a document. "This is the latest policy interpretation. You can take a look at it first."

Wen Nuan took the document and quickly glanced through it.

The content of the document was obscure and full of diplomatic language, but Wen Nuan still captured some key information from it.

The new changes in the international situation are far more complicated than she expected. It not only involves trade barriers and exchange rate fluctuations, but also involves some geopolitical games.

These changes are like a huge whirlpool, dragging cooperative projects into it and making it full of uncertainty.

Wen Nuan took a deep breath, closed the document, looked at Foreign Affairs Officer Sun, and asked calmly, "Officer Sun, do you think we still have a chance?"

Diplomatic officer Sun did not answer directly, but smiled meaningfully, "There are always opportunities. It depends on how we grasp them." He stood up and prepared to leave, "Ms. Wen Nuan, you are a smart person." After saying that, he turned and left, leaving only a meaningful back.

Wen Nuan looked at the back of diplomat Sun as he left and fell into deep thought.

The office was silent except for the howling of the wind outside the window, which seemed to foreshadow the coming storm.

Seeing this, Translator Zhao asked cautiously, "Miss Wen Nuan, then...um...I...I should leave first?"

Wen Nuan came back to her senses and nodded at him.

Translator Zhao felt relieved and fled from the office.

Wen Nuan sat alone at her desk, tapping her fingers lightly on the table, her eyes flashing with complex emotions.

The new changes in the international situation have brought her huge challenges, but have also allowed her to see new opportunities.

She knew that she had to make a decision quickly to remain invincible in this unpredictable situation.

Suddenly, the office lights flickered and then went out.

In the darkness, the warm phone screen lit up, displaying a text message from an unfamiliar number: "The game has begun..."
