Chapter 293

"Am I asking for too much?" Ye Jinghuai asked her.

Not really.

Ye Jinghuai noticed that An Nuan suddenly fell silent.

He smiled faintly at the corner of his mouth.

As if feeling a bit desolate.

He stood up from the sofa and said, "I'm going to bed."

It seemed like he was feeling a little... uneasy.

An Nuan pursed her lips.

She looked at Ye Jinghuai's figure and asked him, "Is it that important?"

Ye Jinghuai turned around to look at her.

"For a man, are those things really that important?" he replied.

An Nuan frowned.

"It's important when it concerns Miss An," Ye Jinghuai emphasized each word.

So, what Ye Jinghuai meant was... it's only important to sleep with her.

There would be some ripples in his heart.

An Nuan just stared straight at Ye Jinghuai's departing figure.

Clearly born into a prestigious family.

Clearly attracting attention from all directions.

Why did he give off a sense of loneliness?

It was as if he had never received any love since childhood, growing up all alone.

This man...

He's truly perplexing.

But she seemed... already captivated by him.

The next day.

When An Nuan opened her eyes.

The person beside her was already gone.

Usually, Ye Jinghuai doesn't wake up this early. Did something happen today?

Or did she really upset him last night?

He's being too petty.

An Nuan felt a little annoyed as she pushed aside the covers and got out of bed. At that moment, she saw a note on the bedside table.

She reached out and picked it up. It read, "I have something to attend to, take care. Ah Huai."

Who cares if I miss you!

But at that moment, a smile that she couldn't help appeared on her lips.

Ah Huai.

Those close to him called him Ah Huai.

An Nuan controlled her fluctuating emotions, put down the note, and went into the bathroom to freshen up.

After applying light makeup and changing into a formal business attire, An Nuan had breakfast and headed to An Corporation.

As she entered the office.

An Nuan had just sat down.

Luo Si reported on the work, "General Manager An, there's a senior-level meeting at ten o'clock this morning. The Chairman's secretary specifically reminded me early in the morning to inform you to attend."

"Did they mention the topic?"

"No, they only said that you must attend."

"Okay." An Nuan nodded, then casually asked, "Bring out the marketing plan for Hua Tan International as soon as possible."

"Yes." Luo Si nodded. "I've already urged the marketing department, and the latest deadline for submission is before Wednesday this week."

"Okay." An Nuan responded.

"Does General Manager An still want black coffee?"

"Thank you."

An Nuan turned her attention to work. Luo Si prepared a cup of black coffee for An Nuan and a cup of warm water for Hu Feng before leaving the office without disturbing them.

It always felt like when General Manager An was working, she genuinely ignored everything else and was very focused.

At ten o'clock in the morning.

An Nuan entered the senior-level meeting room.

To her surprise, An Xiao and An Hao were also present.

She calmly sat in the corner and waited for the meeting to begin.

An Yanyuan sat in the center and spoke directly into the microphone in front of him, "Today, we called this senior-level meeting with a simple purpose, which is to verify the flag that An Nuan set for the company when she joined!"

An Nuan smiled faintly.

So, her father couldn't wait to give her recognition.

An Nuan had made a promise in front of all the senior executives. "Secretary Wang," called An Yanyuan, addressing his personal secretary.

"Yes, Chairman," the secretary understood and quickly projected the documents onto the screen.

Everyone looked at the performance report displayed on the large electronic screen.

"These are An Nuan's achievements since joining the An Corporation three months ago," An Yanyuan said, "and they have exceeded her initial commitment."

Suddenly, applause filled the room.

An Nuan smiled calmly in response.

"The An Corporation has always been driven by competence, which is why I have a proposal regarding An Nuan's position," An Yanyuan said with seriousness and a strong presence. "Previously, An Yankun, my elder brother who managed the marketing department of the An Corporation, is currently in prison due to certain matters. I believe everyone here is well aware of the situation, so I won't go into detail. However, his work has been overseen by the acting CEO, but ultimately, the CEO has his own responsibilities and can only afford to dedicate limited time and energy to it. Therefore, I propose that An Nuan assume this position as the Senior Vice President of the An Corporation, responsible for managing all marketing activities."

The words had a surprising effect.

Even An Nuan was taken aback.

It was a sudden leap of five levels, more exaggerated than the recognition Ye Jinghuai and the others had received.

Whispers began to fill the room.

After all, An Nuan was only 22 years old.

Throughout history, the Northern Wen Country had never seen a 22-year-old female CEO, especially not in a company ranked among the top 100 globally and top 10 nationally.

If this news were to spread, they would surely become the subject of ridicule.

"I disagree!" An Hao suddenly spoke up in a loud voice. "My father is in prison due to some issues, and he indeed cannot manage the An Corporation anymore. But even so, it's not An Nuan's turn to take over. She has only been with the company for three months and has achieved some results, but no matter how great her contributions may be, they are not significant enough to qualify her for this position. Uncle, what you're doing seems a bit self-serving."

An Yanyuan's gaze shifted to An Hao.

An Hao seemed convinced that he was making a valid point.

He refused to accept An Nuan taking over as the Senior Vice President of the An Corporation.

He found it ridiculous that An Nuan could simply claim the position when his father had to wait until he was almost 40.

"So, who do you think is more suitable then?" An Yanyuan asked An Hao.

"Anyone but An Nuan," An Hao bluntly replied.

Of course, he couldn't recommend himself either.

Even though it was natural for him to inherit his father's business, since no one else volunteered, he couldn't bring himself to ask his uncle to give him the position.

"What makes An Nuan unsuitable?" An Yanyuan questioned An Hao.

Just as An Hao was about to respond, An Yanyuan said, "Is it because of her age? Just because she's only 22 this year, does that mean we should deny all her abilities? Tell me, when faced with challenges like the Guangming Tower or the Huatan International project, who among the talents at the An Corporation didn't feel helpless? Who didn't try to distance themselves from such situations? An Nuan managed to turn around two of the most difficult projects of the An Corporation from losses to profits within just three months. Who can say she isn't capable of handling a higher-level position?"

With a tone that brooked no dissent, the atmosphere in the room instantly fell silent.

At least half of the people were convinced by what was said.

After a few seconds of deadlock, someone started to echo, "I support An Nuan being appointed as the Senior Vice President of An Corporation. I believe that young people should be given a platform to unleash their full potential."

"I support her too. An Nuan has achieved remarkable results in such a short period of time. I'm sure she will continue to surprise us in the future."

"I also support..."

The voices of support grew louder and louder.

An Nuan never expected to receive such recognition.
