Ning Xingruo’s heart suddenly trembled while she was speaking eloquently.
Tianci’s thoughts appeared again!
So it really wasn’t an auditory hallucination before!
“An Muyue isn’t even comparable to one of my fingernails?”
“I’m the perfect fiancée in his heart?”
Instantly, flowers bloomed in Ning Xingruo’s heart with joy.
So the young master of the Wei Family, her fiancé, was not actually as disgusted with her as he appeared to be.
So deep down, he valued her this highly.
Ning Xingruo looked at Wei Tianci with sparkling eyes, feeling as though all her suffering had finally come to an end and everything had been worth it.
The frustration she had suffered earlier because of An Muyue instantly vanished without a trace.
[Hey, what’s going on here? Big Sister, you’re giving a speech right now. Why are you looking at me so affectionately?]
[My current mission is to secretly love An Muyue while treating you with disdain, okay? If you keep acting like such a lovestruck fool, I won’t be able to hold back.]
Wei Tianci quickly shook his head and deliberately put on an unhappy expression.
“What was wrong with you earlier? Why did you bully An Muyue at the Police Station?”
“Don’t you know she’s the woman I deeply love?”
[Sorry, Xingruo.]
[According to the script, I can only act indifferent toward you until I get killed by the protagonist Ye Fan and exit the stage.]
[Sorry. I love you.]
Ning Xingruo’s delicate body trembled violently.
Her lively eyes instantly became watery as happiness completely filled her heart.
With a trembling voice, she said, “Tianci, you’re also the man I love most!”
Crash!
Everyone present was so shocked that their jaws nearly hit the floor.
Did CEO Ning even hear what Young Master Wei was saying?
He was literally blaming her for bullying the other woman!
So why was she still looking at him with such affection?
Good heavens!
With her pride, shouldn’t she have stormed off angrily instead?
Something was clearly wrong with her state of mind!
Wei Tianci paused awkwardly before continuing with a cold face.
“Hmph. Unfortunately, I don’t really have feelings for you. Only An Muyue can move my heart.”
The male and female executives on the deck instantly changed expressions in shock.
Young Master Wei truly wasn’t giving CEO Ning any face at all!
He was humiliating CEO Ning publicly in front of everyone!
What woman could possibly endure that?
[Damn it, these words really go against my conscience. Looking across all of Zhonghai, can there even be another woman more beautiful and charming than Ning Xingruo?]
[What does An Muyue even have to compare with her? It’s like comparing a tiny shaman to a grand sorcerer. The name Ning Xingruo itself is synonymous with devastating beauty.]
[Sigh. If only this damn mission didn’t exist. Then I wouldn’t have to pursue An Muyue or be hated by the protagonist Ye Fan.]
[Wouldn’t it be wonderful for me to just loaf around and live off my Xingruo?]
Ning Xingruo stared blankly at Wei Tianci as tears streamed from her eyes.
They were tears of overwhelming joy.
Unable to hold herself back any longer, she suddenly lunged forward and tightly hugged Wei Tianci in her arms.
Choking with emotion, she declared, “Tianci, as long as I’m here, I won’t allow anyone to bully you!”
“I said it!”
“I, Ning Xingruo, said it!”
She hugged him tightly, her chest pressed so firmly against him that it visibly deformed.
Wei Tianci inhaled the intoxicating fragrance surrounding her and coughed twice awkwardly.
“Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing? I’m going to shout for help.”
He looked at Ning Xingruo as if doubting his own life.
Her behavior today was far too strange.
The crowd present was also completely dumbfounded.
Was CEO Ning really so deeply in love with Young Master Wei that she didn’t care about anything else anymore?
Ning Xingruo looked at Wei Tianci through her tears before smiling brightly.
Meanwhile, she quietly analyzed the thoughts she had just heard.
“Tianci is being forced to complete a mission where he pursues An Muyue, and eventually he’ll be dealt with by the so-called protector Ye Fan, ending in a miserable fate.”
A sharp killing intent flashed through Ning Xingruo’s eyes.
“Ye Fan? The protagonist?”
“So what if you’re the protagonist? Even if you were heaven itself, what of it?”
“For the future between Tianci and me, I’ll fight against fate itself if I must.”
As the strategy meeting neared its conclusion, Dao Lei, the head of the group’s security department, distributed a stack of documents.
“CEO Ning, Young Master Wei, this is tomorrow’s press conference schedule. Please review it.”
Wei Tianci casually flipped through the materials in his hand.
The 3.0 version of the antihypertensive medicine was Tianxing Group’s flagship product.
The moment it debuted, it would explode like a king bomb.
Every other pharmaceutical company’s 2.0 version would instantly fall an entire generation behind.
[But who would’ve thought that for the sake of winning An Muyue’s affection, the protagonist Ye Fan, the mighty Dragon Emperor himself, would actually turn into a thief?]
[He successfully steals the top-secret formula for the antihypertensive medicine, causing Tianxing Group to make a complete fool of itself at the press conference.]
[And after losing the formula, the group falls into irreversible decline.]
[Honestly, it’s better to finish the plotline early so everyone can just go home and find their own mothers.]
Wei Tianci casually tossed the documents onto the table in front of him, crossed his arms, and closed his eyes to rest.
Meanwhile, massive waves were surging through Ning Xingruo’s heart.
What?!
That so-called protagonist Ye Fan would actually commit such shameless theft and directly steal the group’s formula?
What an absolute bastard!
The development of the 3.0 antihypertensive medicine had consumed enormous manpower, material resources, and money from Tianxing Group.
If the formula were stolen, the loss would be unbearable.
Tianxing Group was the love nest belonging to her and Tianci!
She absolutely would not allow anyone to destroy it like this.
Not even heaven itself could stop her!
Immediately, she slammed the schedule document onto the table and said calmly, “Dao Lei, haven’t you noticed that there’s a massive flaw in the security arrangements?”
Dao Lei froze before hesitatingly replying, “CEO Ning, I arranged everything according to the previous conference procedures. What exactly are you referring to?”
Ning Xingruo coldly ordered, “Increase the protection level for the formula by another ten times. The moment the cruise ship docks, go arrange it immediately. There must not be a single mistake.”
Dao Lei replied gloomily, “CEO Ning, this time I hired the top security company in all of China. Even the safe key is being personally carried on my body. Nothing can possibly go wrong.”
[Nothing can go wrong my ass. The problem is you.]
[Tomorrow’s the press conference, yet tonight you’re still going to some ridiculous ballroom party.]
[Ye Fan gets you drunk, steals the safe key, secretly duplicates it, and by the time he finishes everything, you’re still sleeping like a dead pig.]
Outwardly, however, Wei Tianci chuckled lightly.
“Xingruo, I also think Minister Dao knows what he’s doing. We don’t need to worry about this.”
After hearing that, Dao Lei immediately revealed a grateful expression.
Young Master Wei understands me!
Ning Xingruo glanced at Wei Tianci strangely before turning back to Dao Lei.
“Minister Dao, I received information that you’re planning to attend a ballroom party tonight?”
Her sharp eyes locked onto him.
“There’s bound to be drinking and entertainment at such a party, right? Yet you’re carrying the safe key with you at all times. How exactly are we supposed to feel reassured?”
Dao Lei’s expression changed drastically.
CEO Ning’s intelligence network was terrifying.
She even knew about this?
He awkwardly replied, “CEO Ning, I won’t mess things up. I’m famous within the company as the King of Alcohol. Even 3 or 5 kilograms of strong liquor isn’t a problem for me.”
[King of Alcohol my ass. Ye Fan is a Qi Refining Realm Dragon Emperor. While drinking, he can literally force the alcohol out of his body using inner energy. You think you can compete with him?]
[You’re just a little brother.]
Wei Tianci smiled faintly.
“Xingruo, Dao Lei used to be one of my followers. I know he possesses the bearing of a hidden genius. I trust his ability to handle things.”
“Our group has already held at least 8 or 10 press conferences before, and every single one ended perfectly. You don’t need to be overly worried.”
“Enough. I approve this plan. There’s no need to strengthen the security level further.”
