Chapter 651: Promotion Canceled

Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor. Henyee Translations

To be able to meet an acquaintance after working for a long time, this was an indescribable fate.

However, this acquaintance seemed to be from a few years ago. He didn’t know

if he could still be called that in such a situation.

Nan Xuan stood at the door with the documents in his hand. He looked up and met the sloppy, arrogant, and domineering figure. Then, from his slightly familiar face, he found information about the other party in his memory.

Yu Liang.

If he remembered correctly, before the Nan family declined, this person often

curried favor with him.

Nan Xuan smiled and was about to greet him, but the other party beat him to it.

“Yo.” Yu Liang reached out and patted Nan Xuan s arm.

That force was not heavy, but it carried a hint of pushing. Nan Xuan could even

sense a hint of disdain and amusement in his gaze.

Yu Liang stood in front of Nan Xuan and raised his chin. “Why are you in such a state now?”

As soon as he spoke, he had ill intentions and a provocative tone towards Nan

Xuan.

Nan Xuan stood in front of Yu Liang without changing his expression. Even after he finished speaking, he casually curled his lips into a smile, not showing any intention of being angered.

This reaction was not what Yu Liang wanted.

“How can you stay in such a small company? You’re such a god, Eldest Young

Master Nan—”

Hence, he said, “How about this? Come and be my secretary. I’ll give you double

your current salary every month.”

“Based on our past relationship, what do you think?

It was clearly a respectful title, but when it came out of Yu Liang’s mouth, coupled with his tone, it suddenly seemed to have a different meaning, carrying obvious mockery.

At the mention of the past, Nan Xuan didn’t say anything. Instead, Yu Liang

had always been brooding over this matter.

Back then, when the Nan family curried favor with the Murong Family, countless people flattered the Nan family every day, hoping to hook up with them. At that time, it was the same for Yu Liang and Nan Xuan.

However, at that time, he was only the son of a nouveau riche. He was recognized as a country bumpkin in that circle. Not to mention getting Nan Xuan’s attention, no one was willing to look at him more than necessary.

Every time he wanted to go up and talk to Nan Xuan or chat with him, the other party would stand up and leave without looking back, as if he was deliberately embarrassing him.

Yu Liang was a petty person.

He had always remembered this matter and didn’t forget it today.

However, things had changed. Their identities seemed to have changed.

Looking at Nan Xuan, who was wearing a suit but couldn’t hide his temperament, the unpleasant emotions in Yu Liang’s heart surged even more.

It was like bubbling in a pot. The water that casually splashed out burned his heart and made him feel pain.

“Those things are all in the past.” Nan Xuan smiled casually.

However, Yu Liang was here. Now that he was standing here and looking at the expression of the leader beside him, if Nan Xuan still couldn’t tell that the Yu Liang in front of him was the team leader who had been transferred in, it would be a little too much.

The words of the two of them reuniting after a long time landed in the leader’s ears. After they finished speaking, the leader finally spoke.

■’Yu Liang, you can go out first. I have something to tell Nan Xuan.”

These words made Yu Liang listen. He turned around and nodded at the leader.

Then, he pushed the door open and left without even closing it.

After Nan Xuan turned and closed the door, he returned to face the leader’s thoughtful gaze. Deep inside, Nan Xuan felt that he seemed to see some imperceptible pity.

“How’s that project going recently?” the leader asked casually.

Nan Xuan took out all the information he had brought and placed it beside the

leader.

“I just came to report this matter to you.

“I went to the company today to see that our work progress is as usual. Our performance in the week after the endorsement is clearly more than twice as good as before…”

As Nan Xuan picked out a few important reports and placed them at the top,

his mouth was not idle.

“According to the effect of this endorsement, I think we can still cooperate with

the other party a second time.”

After the report, Nan Xuan added his suggestion at the end.

He couldn’t deny that he did this without any selfish motives.

Seeing that the collaboration was about to end, Nan Xuan no longer had a legitimate reason to go to the company and meet his Little Sister.

This was not the outcome he wanted. Moreover, to be fair, according to the results given by CG, Nan Xuan felt that the second collaboration was more than enough. It could even allow the company to take another step forward.

“Yes…”

The leader didn’t speak immediately. Instead, he casually flipped through the reports.

There was naturally no need to say anything about Nan Xuan’s work ability. Everyone approved of him, and the leader also thought very highly of him.

But…

After the leader retracted his hand, he crossed his arms in front of his chest and looked at Nan Xuan with a hint of sincerity.

“You’ve indeed done well in this collaboration project. I’ve seen your ability.”

As soon as he heard him say this, Nan Xuan didn’t need to think to predict which direction the topic would turn.

“Everyone has seen your contribution to the company during this period of time.”

“So after this cooperation, I’ll give you a break too. Rest a little. I’ll think about

the second cooperation.”

Nan Xuan didn’t listen carefully to the rest of the sentence.

However, when he walked out of the office, he was given a week’s leave by the leader. Then, he was asked to end this project as soon as possible and rest for a few days.

However, he didn’t mention the promotion at all.

Yu Liang’s extremely arrogant face couldn’t help but appear in Nan Xuan’s mind. Then, as if he had expected it, the smile on his face faded.

On the first day of rest for Nan Xuan, Yu Liang became the person-in-charge of the endorsement project and said that he would follow the subsequent work progress.

As for Nan Xuan…

The gray sky, coupled with dense clouds, made the originally beautiful scenery look gloomy and oppressive.

This color was really too gloomy, making one’s heart sink.

Nan Xuan stood alone on the balcony with his hands in his pockets, thinking about something. He didn’t say a word and just stood there steadily, looking out casually.

Nan Hao, who had just finished his internship at the law firm, saw this scene as soon as he pushed open the door.

“Big Brother?” Nan Hao called out to him. “Why did you come back early today?”

In the past, the last person to return every time among the three of them was Nan Xuan. He was strong at work and sometimes worked a few different part-time jobs. When Nan Hao found out, he couldn’t persuade him, so he didn’t say anything.

But today…

Nan Hao raised his hand and looked at the time on his watch. He realized that it was clearly only 6 p.m., and the sky was still blue.

“I came back early to rest.”

Nan Xuan turned around and smiled at his brother. “Why? You don’t want me to come back early?”

“How could that be?” Nan Hao shook his head.

Nan Hao threw his bag onto the sofa and found a place to sit.

“I can’t wait for you to come back and rest more, lest your body is too tired and you fall sick again..”
