Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

No man would say that he didn’t have any career ambition at all.

However, looking at the situation at home, Nan Xuan still chose to silently accept the compensation projects handed over by the leader and added a sum of money to his bank card as a backup fund in an unexpected situation.

This could be considered as accepting the leader’s arrangements.

“Team Leader, I feel that the person who parachuted in recently is just an empty sh.e.l.l. He doesn’t have any ability at all. He’s inferior to you,” a team member said secretly while working, defending him.

Nan Xuan’s expression didn’t change. “Do your job well and don’t gossip.”

“Alright, alright—” The team member dragged out his voice, although his thoughts didn’t change because of this.

Nan Xuan had already restrained himself from thinking too much. After all, the situation had already been settled. The treatment of this company was not bad. As long as they didn’t step on his bottom line, he could accept the current situation.

However, just as he was about to convince himself, a report to the leader’s office stopped him.

“It’s been a week since the second round of the collaboration was given to you. Why hasn’t there been any movement?” The leader asked.

Right on the heels of that, Yu Liang’s casual voice sounded. “I feel that the previous price is unreasonable.”

“In any case, there’s enough time. If we suppress it a little more, we can save a lot of costs for the company.”

From Yu Liang’s tone, he knew that he definitely didn’t take this matter to heart. The sloppy way he stood beside the leader made him frown.

“…Take note of it.” The leader’s tone was indulgent but also warning.

Yu Liang didn’t think much of it. “We’re the ones with the initiative. Will she choose to not earn our money?”

“However, I think… those artistes from their company suit my taste.”

Nan Xuan couldn’t stand these words anymore. He simply raised his hand and knocked on the door, interrupting the voices inside.

“Come in.” The leader’s voice came from inside.

Nan Xuan walked in with a straight face. He forced himself not to look at Yu Liang beside him and placed the report in his hand in front of the leader.

He reported in a low voice, “This is the results of this quarter.”

“Alright, I understand. The two of you can leave first.” The leader waved his hand, having no intention of continuing the conversation with Yu Liang in front of Nan Xuan.

Yu Liang shrugged indifferently and followed Nan Xuan out of the office.

There was a long corridor back from the leader’s office. One could tell at a glance if there was anyone there.

Seeing Nan Xuan walk out, Yu Liang suddenly spoke behind him.

“You were the one who started this project, right?”

Yu Liang took half a step forward and blocked Nan Xuan’s path. “It’s not a good thing to carry personal feelings to work.”

“I don’t understand what you’re saying.” Nan Xuan returned his gaze, his tone calm.

“Forget it.” Yu Liang sneered. “I’m not a real idiot. The money you offered is clearly too high.”

“Forget it, it’s fine if you don’t admit it. In any case, I have to take back the money you gave away bit by bit.”

Yu Liang deliberately lowered his voice and looked at Nan Xuan with his arms crossed calmly. “I’ve obtained permission. I can do anything I want in this.”

Thanks to Nan Xuan, the effect of the previous cooperation was not bad. Therefore, after the project fell into Yu Liang’s hands this time, he took the initiative to look for him and wanted to take a sip of the soup.

In that case, it was not impossible to use some extraordinary methods.

Nan Xuan understood what he meant and immediately frowned. “You—”

“The project is in my hands. I can do whatever I want,” Yu Liang said and left.

Even if he didn’t say it, it was not like Nan Xuan couldn’t guess.

If Yu Liang used the convenience of their previous collaboration to do something to his Little Sister’s company…

Nan Xuan returned to his seat, still thinking about this matter uneasily.

“Team Leader? Team Leader?” The colleague beside him waved his hand in front of Nan Xuan’s eyes. “Why do I feel that you’re distracted?”

Nan Xuan remained silent.

After separating from Yu Liang, he had been thinking about what the other party had said.

He kept feeling that Yu Liang might do something out of line. After thinking about it and feeling that it was not appropriate, he simply went to look for the leader and told him about this.

“…Nan Xuan.” However, after the leader heard Nan Xuan’s words, he misunderstood.

“What Yu Liang does is his idea. Just do your own thing.”

The leader was clearly on Yu Liang’s side. “Besides, it’s just an entertainment company. If they don’t want to cooperate, we can force them to cooperate. It’s not a big deal.”

“I heard from Yu Liang that she’s a female boss. That’s easier—”

Just hearing the words of the leader at the beginning, Nan Xuan subconsciously clenched his fists.

“Then, you mean…” This was the first time he had interrupted the leader’s speech so presumptuously.

The leader frowned. He felt that Nan Xuan was very incompetent today, so his tone became heavier.

“In short, go about your business. Don’t worry about the cooperation.”

At this point, if Nan Xuan still didn’t understand, he would be a blockhead.

The leader’s words traveled from his ears to his heart, but it attracted another surging emotion. It made Nan Xuan suddenly feel as if his feet had taken root. He didn’t take a step and still stood stubbornly in place.

“I don’t agree,” Nan Xuan said.

He was fine, but when he heard that the leader had tacitly agreed to Yu Liang’s plan to attack Murong Qiao, he would never let this happen.

The leader was also a little angry. “You have no right to speak.”

“Return to your post, Nan Xuan. Don’t make me say it again.”

“Return?” Nan Xuan repeated.

He looked up and met the leader’s gaze. An idea suddenly appeared in his mind and he blurted out.

“There’s no need to return.”

“I’m resigning.”

Nan Xuan had to admit that this was an impulsive decision. However, even if he said it out loud, he didn’t have any regrets after packing up his work desk and going home for the entire night.

As long as he thought that something might happen to his Little Sister’s company, but he was helpless to change anything, Nan Xuan fell into an abnormal silence.

Because he resigned on impulse, he brought the few things he had in the company home.

But today, he was not the first to return home. Instead, it was Nan Jin, who had not appeared much recently. It was rare for him to appear.

“What are you…”

As soon as the door opened, Nan Jin saw the cardboard box in Nan Xuan’s hand and the things inside. Needless to say, he could tell what had happened.

“Yes, I’ve resigned.” Nan Xuan calmly told the truth.

Nan Jin frowned and didn’t say anything. He reached out to take the things from Nan Xuan and walked in.

“It’s good that you resigned. You’ve always been under so much pressure. I was worried that something would happen to you.”

After experiencing so much outside, Nan Jin had matured a lot after returning this time.

“You can rest at home during this period of time. In any case, I can earn money now and take care of the family.” Nan Jin explained his plan.

Ever since he became popular as a supporting actor in a web drama and gained some popularity, the resources were not as scarce as before. In addition, he was quite hardworking in his acting skills. There were also many scripts that were quite suitable for him.

“…I have other thoughts.” Nan Xuan pondered.

After this incident, he had a clearer understanding of himself.

He still didn’t have the strength to completely protect his Little Sister.

No matter how hard he worked, it was impossible for him to get another job with a higher position.

But… what if he set up his own company?
