The most ruthless is her

Ruan Mohan went downstairs and drove.

She didn't text or call Jian Shuo, and drove directly to X Hospital.

Along the way, she drove evenly and steadily.There were other cars jumping in the line, she was very good at driving, and she didn't give in at all, but she didn't force her past and raced with each other.

The car was driving so calmly, just like her face, without any emotion.

Ruan Mohan parked the car and took the elevator directly upstairs.

She was going to Bai Jingxian's ward.

Since Bai Jingxian fell down last time, she felt that her home was not safe, so she stayed in X Hospital and was never discharged until more than a week later, which was her due date.

Now Bai Jingxian is in a stable state, and there are no checkpoints at the door of the ward.There was only one nurse at the medical guidance desk, who read Ruan Mohan's ID, listened to Ruan Mohan's explanation of her intentions, and saw that Ruan Mohan was indeed familiar, so she let her go.

Ruan Mo was as cold as a puff of smoke, drifting past with very light steps.

She stood still at the door of the ward, and looked in through a small pane of glass on the door of the ward.

There is a sense of history repeating itself.

She remembered that Jiang Kailun led her to stand here last time, and she looked at Jian Shuo standing in the ward with a rebellious face.

However, when Bai Jingxian waved to Jian Shuo, Jian Shuo walked to Bai Jingxian's hospital bed and sat down, no matter how fierce and disdainful her expression was.

She let Bai Jingxian touch her head.

Even if what Bai Jingxian said was: "I forgive you." It's like forcing Jian Shuo to admit it, the person who intentionally made Bai Jingxian fall is Jian Shuo.

This time, Bai Jingxian called Jian Shuo to her bedside again.

She smiled and said to Jian Shuo, "Ah Shuo, I'm going to have a baby next week."

Jian Shuo didn't speak, even his back was stubborn.

Bai Jingxian: "But I'm still your sister-in-law."

Jian Shuo still didn't speak.

Bai Jingxian: "You are still my child, Ah Shuo, I watched you grow up."

Jian Shuo lowered her head.

Ruan Mohan stood outside the ward, with his hands hanging down, his fingers curled up, his expression indifferent.

Ever since Jian Shuo lived in her house, she already knew why Jian Shuo wanted Bai Jingxian to pat her head at the expense of being misunderstood.

Like Ruan Mohan, Jian Shuo also has nightmares.

Ruan Mohan's nightmare was fragmented.But Jian Shuo's nightmares were repeated one after another.

Ruan Mohan is a light sleeper and has sensitive ears, so he can hear Jian Shuo's sleep talking from time to time.

Sometimes it's the Swiss snow mountains.Sometimes it's a mourning hall.But more often, it is a hospital, a maternity hospital.

Jian Shuo asked in a panic in her dream, "What does amniotic fluid embolism mean?"

Ruan Mohan knew that the deepest pain in Jian Shuo's heart was that her mother died when she was born.

She was the chief culprit in the death of her mother.

After that, my father also fell into a slump, which meant that he died indirectly because of Jian Shuo.

Bai Jingxian replaced Jian Shuo's most wanted mother role, and was the only person in the world she was willing to touch besides Ruan Mohan.

Jian Shuo needs a mother too much, and Bai Jingxian is sure of this.

At this time, she smiled and said to Jian Shuo: "Sit closer, let me take a good look at you, you seem to have lost weight recently?"

"A Shuo, no matter what you do wrong, I will forgive you, just like no matter what I do wrong, you will also forgive me and not hold me accountable, right?"

"Come here, let me touch your head, like before."

Ruan Mohan realized immediately, she knew what Bai Jingxian was talking about.

Bai Jingxian was saying that she would snatch the listening thing tomorrow.

Jian Shuo is her last obstacle.

Ruan Mohan stood outside the ward, looked at Jian Shuo sitting indifferently, and lowered his head slightly.

Jian Shuo is going to let Bai Jingxian touch her head.

Jian Shuo was about to say "Yes, no matter what, I won't pursue it".

Ruan Mohan pushed open the door of the ward all at once, and walked in with no expression on his face.

Jian Shuo turned her head and looked at Ruan Mohan together with Bai Jingxian.

Jian Shuo was obviously surprised, while Bai Jingxian looked calm.

Greeting her with a smile: "Director Ruan, why are you here now?"

"Where is she thin?" Ruan Mo said indifferently.

Jian Shuo was taken aback.

Ruan Mohan asked Jian Shuo: "Have you lost weight?"

Jian Shuo shook her head.

Ruan Mohan looked at Bai Jingxian: "Look, she's not thin."

Bai Jingxian smiled: "So what? I am like A Shuo's mother. Mothers are always worried about eating and sleeping well when they look after their children."

On Ruan Mohan's face, for the first time, a disgusted frown appeared.

Jian Shuo was stunned again.

She saw Ruan Mohan's eyes, and it fell on her face again: "Do you need Ms. Bai to worry about you?"

Jian Shuo looked at her.

Ruan Mohan said: "Don't sit there, stand behind me."

The light in the ward was incandescent, shining on Ruan Mohan, making her cold white skin even whiter, and her usually light brown hair and eyes darkened several degrees.

Jian Shuo usually feels that Ruan Mo is as cold as a puff of smoke.

Only now did she realize that once Ruan Mohan's appearance became clear, there was also a sharp and powerful side to accident.

Picking up the sword, a head of soft and long hair fluttered in the wind, like a god blocking and killing a god and Buddha blocking and killing a Buddha.

Jian Shuo stood up involuntarily.

Bai Jingxian called her from behind: "A Shuo."

She repeated the previous sentence: "I watched you grow up, I am just like your mother."

Jian Shuo was obviously taken aback.

The word "mother" has a special magic power to Jian Shuo.

Ruan Mohan: "Jian Shuo, look at me."

This time, she didn't intend to back down.

She has kept a low profile for 30 years, and she has never made a high profile step.But now, she has found her kind, Jian Shuo.

She felt that her body was full of the most frantic adrenaline when she raced with someone for the first time.

Jian Shuo looked at her, with dark brown pupils meeting light brown ones.

Ruan Mohan: "Jian Shuo, listen to me clearly, you can only look at me alone."

"Whenever, wherever."

"any questions?"

She glanced at Bai Jingxian, stood up slightly, slightly hooked Jian Shuo's hand with her fingers, and her fingertips trembled slightly.

Bai Jingxian is the real acting master.

Ruan Mohan curled up his fingers slightly.

In fact, she has a trick.

After sharing all the information with Yang Haining and confirming that Bai Jingxian wanted to join forces with Jiang Kailun to snatch the listening, with Yang Haining's permission, Ruan Mohan went to Bai Jingxian's study.

Bai Jingxian did not leave any trace.

But a hundred secrets are sparse.

Ruan Mohan found a book - "How to Get Along with Problem Children".

It turned out that Bai Jingxian had always looked at Jian Shuo in this way.

Ruan Mohan knew that now, as long as she took out this book, she could cut off all Jian Shuo's fantasies about Bai Jingxian.

However, she suddenly didn't want to take it out.

She looked at Jian Shuo coldly, standing beside Bai Jingxian's hospital bed, her hand was hooked by Bai Jingxian's fingers, and Bai Jingxian's fingertips trembled.

Ruan Mohan decided to take a gamble.

She gambled, how?

She looked at Jian Shuo, turned around, and slowly brushed off Bai Jingxian's hand.

Bai Jingxian was taken aback for a moment, and the expression on her face became extremely subtle.

Jian Shuo ran to Ruan Mohan's side, and stood behind her as Ruan Mohan said.

She looked over Ruan Mohan's shoulder and looked at Bai Jingxian: "Sister-in-law, I only listen to Ruan Mohan alone."

Ruan Mohan turned around and looked at Jian Shuo coldly: "Don't look at others."

Jian Shuo's dark pupils approached Ruan Mohan's light brown pupils.

Getting closer and closer.

She asked Ruan Mohan: "Did you see clearly? There is only you inside."

Ruan Mohan nodded.

Jian Shuo lowered her head: "Touch it."

Ruan Mohan didn't move.

Jian Shuo lowered her head and approached Ruan Mohan: "Touch it."

Ruan Mohan looked cold and arrogant, raised his hand, and touched Jian Shuo's head.

Jian Shuo raised her head, grinning, her dark eyes sparkling.

Ruan Mohan: "Good boy."

Jian Shuo: "Yes!"

Ruan Mohan: "Follow me."

Jian Shuo followed Ruan Mohan and walked out of the ward without looking back.

Bai Jingxian was left sitting alone on the hospital bed, watching their backs go away.

******

Late at night, Ruan Mohan's bedroom.

Jian Shuo was restrained by Ruan Mohan: "Don't close your eyes."

The expression on Jian Shuo's face became fierce: "Ruan Mohan."

Ruan Mohan knew Jian Shuo well, when she felt that things were out of control, she would deliberately show such a fierce expression and bluff.

Now, what is out of control is Jian Shuo's body.

"Don't close your eyes." Ruan Mohan used his straight nose to rub Jian Shuo's half-drowned eyes: "Look at me."

"Keep looking at me."

Light brown hair brushed against Jian Shuo's charming and pretty face, and the ends of her hair swayed.

"Will you keep looking at me?"

"meeting."

"louder please."

"Hey……"

"louder please."

"meeting."

"What can you do?"

"I'll keep looking at you." A sudden movement made Jian Shuo's body potential burst out, the color of rose dyed his cheeks, his hands twitched violently, and he broke free from Ruan Mohan's grasp.

A turn over.

Now, instead of her dark curly hair, it hangs down on Ruan Mohan's back.

Such strength made Ruan Mohan close his eyes obediently.

"I will always look at you." Jian Shuo said fiercely, "Just like you must always look at me, just look at me."

"Always, always, always, always, always."

******

At nine o'clock in the morning on Thursday, the press conference site.

Ruan Mohan took a seat in the auditorium together with other middle-level listeners.

Chu Xingyun was sitting next to Ruan Mohan, holding her pregnant belly. Her due date was a little later than Bai Jingxian's.

Chu Xingyun's expression was slightly worried: "I'm always feeling uneasy, what's going on?"

"Is something going to happen?"

Ruan Mohan glanced at her.

In some cases, women do have amazingly accurate intuition, like a strange gift.

Ruan Mohan looked at Chu Xingyun's pregnant belly.

She remembered that when she was five years old, she saw her mother's belly swell like this, and her mother told her that it was her little brother or little sister, and if it was a little sister, she would be called Ruan Qiu.

Ruan Mohan said calmly, "Don't worry, nothing will happen."

"I promise."

After the Chinese and foreign reporters took their seats, Jian Ming and Jiang Kailun gave way to each other and walked to the speaking seats on the rostrum to sit down.

The sound of a camera clicking, irritating Ruan Mohan's sensitive ears.

There was also the non-stop flashing flash, which also made Ruan Mohan's sensitive eyes tingle and uncomfortable.

She quietly looked at the rostrum.

Jian Ming's state is still the same as these days, with a little redness at the end of his eyes, his hands folded under his chin, the veins in his clenched hands are bulging, and he looks extremely excited.

He cleared his throat: "Today is a big day for Listening Group and GS."

"The series of products we have cooperated to upgrade will be launched in Europe and China at the same time today."

There was another snapping sound.

Ruan Mohan glanced at the rostrum, Jian Ming's legs were shaking at an abnormally fast, almost nervous frequency.

There is a thick and soft carpet under the rostrum, and the heels of the shoes are constantly rubbing against each other.

Swish, swish, swish.

******

Suddenly, there was a commotion beside the rostrum.

The person who looked like the host was dragged by the people from the event company, and was talking randomly into the earphones, looking like he was battered.

Chu Xingyun's face sank: "Look, something happened."

"My hunch was right."

Ruan Mohan looked indifferent: "Perhaps, it's a good thing."

Chu Xingyun looked at Ruan Mohan in surprise.

Many people have noticed the commotion at the rostrum and are looking over there.

Finally, the host stepped onto the rostrum and whispered a few words to Jian Ming and Jiang Kailun.

Jiang Kailun nodded his head lightly, his face was normal, and he glanced at Ruan Mohan without showing any trace.

Ruan Mohan looked back calmly, aiming at those sable eyes.

Jiang Kailun could still laugh, looking at Ruan Mohan with great interest.

Ruan Mohan curled up his slender fingers on his knees.

Jian Ming's reaction was surprisingly big, he slammed the table and stood up: "Impossible!"

The cameras under the stage clicked again, stinging Ruan Mohan's sensitive ears.

Ruan Mohan looked at Jian Ming, and saw that the corners of his eyes were reddened even more, his hands clasped in front of the rostrum were clenched into fists, and the bruises were more obvious.

There was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, but it was Jiang Kailun who advised him: "Boss Jian, calm down, there are many shots being taken."

Jian Ming loosened his tie, fidgetyly took out a box of refreshing mints from the inside pocket of his suit, and poured one into his mouth.

Even the movement of shaking the candy box was fidgety and extremely vigorous.

Ruan Mohan heard the sound of those little candy grains hitting the candy box amidst the sound of cameras clicking.

Click, click, click.

Until Yang Haining walked to the rostrum, Jian Ming slammed the table with clenched fists and rushed to Yang Haining.

He lowered his voice, roaring like an enraged beast: "Are you plotting against me?"

"You are my own grandma, are you plotting against me?"

"You treated Ah Shuo like that before, and now you treat me like this, do you really have no feelings?"

"It wasn't until something happened to you that you started complaining about A Shuo?" Yang Haining said calmly, "I'm afraid it's not me who wants to plot against you."

Because of Jian Ming's uncontrollable emotions, the two had a conversation on the stage.

This scene was captured by countless clicking cameras.

But except for Ruan Mohan, who sat closer to the rostrum and had sensitive ears, no one could hear what they said clearly.

Jian Ming stretched out his hand to face Yang Haining's cheongsam collar, the redness from the end of his eyes spread to his cheeks, and he was panting heavily.

Yang Haining remained calm: "Why, you want to do something to me?"

"A Ming, have you ever thought about why you have become so irritable now, when you were the most gentle person in the past?"

Jian Ming was taken aback.

Yang Haining walked up to the rostrum, sat down where Jian Ming had just been, and nodded to the host.

Jiang Kailun was still elegant and polite, and greeted Yang Haining with a smile: "Madam Yang, no, Director Yang."

The name tag in front of Yang Haining was inscribed just now, with the words "Chairman of the Listening Group" written on it.

Ruan Mohan had already heard the listening management team around him whispering, "What's going on?"

"Why is the old lady here?"

The host cleared his throat and said, "Today's press conference is temporarily cancelled."

There was an uproar downstairs.

He handed the microphone to Yang Haining, and Yang Haining said calmly: "If you have any questions, you can ask me."

The press conference turned into a Q&A session with reporters.

"The cooperation between Lingyin Group and GS is the biggest news in the industry this year. Why is the product launch suddenly cancelled?"

Someone asked: "Did the upgrade product development fail?"

Yang Haining: "No, as you know before, the cooperation between Lingyin and GS is progressing smoothly, too smoothly."

She glanced at Jiang Kailun without showing any signs, and Jiang Kailun smiled gracefully, showing no flaws.

Yang Haining continued: "The upgraded product has been successfully developed. If Lingyin and GS are willing, it can indeed be launched today, at this moment, in Europe and China at the same time."

"but."

"Lingyin made a big mistake when calculating the market share before. The upgraded products are too high-end and the cost is too high. It can only be used to meet the very small amount of demand at the top of the market pyramid. Without the support of a broader market, it cannot continue."

"Once today's press conference announces that the product has been successfully launched, put into mass production, and waiting to be heard, the only way to go bankrupt."

There was another uproar in the audience.

Listening management, who had waited months, thinking they would be rewarded handsomely, were outraged:

"This is impossible!"

"Hasn't the market share been calculated a long time ago? Could it be that someone artificially falsified the data?"

Chu Xingyun looked at Ruan Mohan: "Is it true that someone artificially falsified the data?"

Ruan Mohan looked indifferently, looking at Jiang Kailun on the rostrum: "Yes."

"So you already knew about it." Chu Xingyun: "I should have noticed it too. Even the product upgrade research and development I am in charge of is progressing too smoothly."

"It's like... a game."

She followed Ruan Mohan's line of sight to the rostrum: "The one who falsified the data is GS?"

Ruan Mohan: "To be precise, it's Jiang Kailun."

Yang Haining on the rostrum continued: "As the chairman of the listening group, I stopped the launch of upgraded products."

A reporter raised his hand: "Your equity has been handed over to Mr. Jian Ming. He is the current chairman of Lingyin, isn't he?"

Yang Haining looked at him calmly: "The equity transfer procedure is more complicated than you imagined. The lawyer has handled it until now, and there is still one final procedure."

"Because Mr. Jian Ming Jian made a huge mistake in the group's decision-making, I am now withdrawing the transfer of equity."

"The chairman of the listening group is still me."

******

Listening group conference room.

All the middle and senior management gathered together, just like a meeting in the past.It's just that the person at the head of the conference table has changed from Jian Ming to Yang Haining.

Everyone in the room is angry:

"How can market share data go wrong?"

"Every time we meet, we look at the data together, and the future is bright."

Finally someone couldn't help asking: "Mrs. Yang, is your thinking too conservative? Why don't you invite Mr. Jian..."

Yang Haining glanced at him: "Are you questioning my old age?"

"Also, I have retired for many years. You probably are used to calling me Mrs. Yang, but starting today—"

She glanced at the crowd, not arrogant: "Call me Yang Dong, just like the old man passed away a few years ago."

After the founder Jian Ke passed away, his wife Yang Haining became the first person in power of Lingyin.

In those few years, the performance of Lingyin improved by leaps and bounds, and there were many discussions inside and outside the industry that Yang Haining was a stronger entrepreneur than Jian Ke.

Maybe she was never a woman who only hid behind Jian Ke's back.

Yang Haining called Ruan Mohan: "Director Ruan."

Ruan Mohan projected the data sheet on the screen.

Yang Haining: "This is the correct market share forecast, you can see for yourself."

Someone questioned: "Director Ruan, you are the director of the marketing department. Didn't you find any problems with the previous data?"

Ruan Mohan replied indifferently: "First, with my rank, some core data are out of reach, only Mr. Jian and Mr. Jiang know."

"Secondly, timing is the first factor when making a market. The calculation of market share is related to the timing of product launch, cost, logistics and transportation costs, export process, etc."

"The previous share calculation is the result of our daily meetings and the joint efforts of various departments, and it is not the marketing department's ability to make decisions."

Everyone stopped talking.

What Ruan Mohan said is true.

Yang Haining: "Once the dream of taking off is broken, I know you are very disappointed."

"However, at least you are still sitting here firmly, listening to the music is still there, and you will not be demoted or reduced in salary."

"Which is worse than listening to bankruptcy?"

******

Listening to the rooftop.

Ruan Mohan stood by the railing, smoking a cigarette.

The weather in early July, the sky is high and the clouds are wide, the bright sun just hasn't hit the rooftop directly, revealing a rare coolness.

A little bit of wind moved Ruan Mohan's long light brown hair, and the dense smoke drifted from his fingers, swirling away with the wind.

An elegant voice sounded behind Ruan Mohan: "If I were you, I would quit smoking."

Ruan Mohan didn't look back.

She knew it was Karen Jiang.

Jiang Kailun walked to Ruan Mohan with a smile: "There are many ways to relieve stress in the world, such as yoga, food, and there is no need to choose the one that is harmful to the body."

Ruan Mohan glanced at her: "Just like you, like an AI, taking care of your body without flaws, like treating a precision instrument?"

Jiang Kailun smiled: "Director Ruan, don't you usually do the same?"

"It's just you, you don't always seem to do things very thoroughly."

"Meticulous care of the body, but leaving the flaw of smoking."

"I wanted to be ruthless with all my heart, but I left Jian Shuo as a loophole."

Jiang Karen asked, "Is she your flaw?"

Ruan Mohan smoked a cigarette, nodded without hesitation: "Yes."

Jiang Karen smiled.

She stood side by side with Ruan Mohan, raised her head slightly, and looked at the wind and clouds in the sky.

"Using Yang Haining's authority, have you found the point where the data went wrong?"

"Ah."

"Aren't you going to sue me?"

"I thought about it." Ruan Mohan took a puff of cigarette lightly, without looking at Jiang Kailun: "But I followed the data and found out that the data you provided has its roots."

"You have even prepared the papers in academic journals. If you sue you, it will only be a wrong citation, not falsified data."

"I have known for a long time that there will be no mistakes in your every step."

"You praise me too much." Jiang Kailun smiled: "For example, Jing Xian and I didn't win the battle of listening, did we?"

Ruan Mohan smoked a cigarette indifferently: "For you, this step is also counted."

"You have already calculated that this may happen."

"Your biggest back move is Jian Shuo."

Jiang Kailun's sable eyes overflowed with satisfaction: "Director Ruan, you are really smart."

"I am more and more satisfied with you."

"Yes, it's Jian Shuo." Jiang Kailun said: "Madam Yang is so old, no matter whether she can pass the gate of hell this time, she is listening, how long can she last?"

"If Jian Ming's ability is mediocre and not worth entrusting, then with Jian Shuo's character and ability, is it worth entrusting?"

"After Mrs. Yang has been around for a hundred years, what should I do about listening? Mrs. Yang will not fail to think of this. Then, has Jingxian, who has shown her ambition and strong ability to control the situation this time, become her only choice again? "

"The more Jian Shuo is messed up, the better she looks quiet and demure."

Ruan Mohan smoked lightly and didn't speak.

Jiang Kailun's smile deepened: "For example, Director Ruan, I guess according to you and Mrs. Yang, no, Mr. Yang's original plan, today is to let Jian Shuo appear in front of the reporter together."

"Why...she didn't show up?"
