Shi Jin smiled and shook her head. She did not care about Qin Fanya's situation, but Jiang Ning was different. She had lived under Qin Fanya's halo since she was young, and she seemed useless when compared to her.
Once there was a chance, Jiang Ning naturally would not let go of any chance to turn things around.
If she had to blame someone, she had to blame Qin Fanya for being too arrogant in the past and not leaving herself any connections.
Three days later, the mine in Country F was basically confirmed to have no problems. Shi Jin and Jiang Ning had arranged for trustworthy people to take over, and the two of them returned home.
On the way to the airport, Jiang Ning's phone kept ringing.
She took out her phone and hung up ruthlessly before setting it to silent mode.
She glanced at the caller ID and said, "It's all those higher-ups and shareholders. Ever since they found out about our mine, they wish they could eat every word they said back then. I'll see what they say when we go back this time."
Shi Jin laughed when she heard that. She could already imagine what Jiang Ning would be like after she returned to Hong Kong.
After this time, Jiang Ning had completely established himself in the Jiang family.
Hong Kong Airport.
The entire airport was already filled with people because of Jiang Ning and Shi Jin's return. Everyone was here to pick them up. Although there were friends and reporters among them, most of them were people who had missed an opportunity previously and were now kneeling and licking their boots.
Looking at the crowded mass of people in front of her, Jiang Ning exclaimed, "Did I bring too few security guards?"
"This way." Shi Jin was good at hiding from fervent fans. She grabbed Jiang Ning's hand and quickly walked to the side.
Halfway through, the mass of people followed.
Suddenly, Shi Jin's hand was grabbed. She looked up and saw that it was Fu Xiuyuan.
He was wearing casual clothes, a baseball cap, and a black mask. He had deliberately downplayed his own mark. Only when she raised her head and saw his face could his defined brows and deep eyes confirm his identity.
"Follow me." Fu Xiuyuan held Shi Jin's hand and quickly walked towards the safe zone.
Jiang Ning immediately followed.
A moment later, the three of them returned to the car, leaving a bunch of puzzled people behind.
"Heavens, I was frightened to death," Jiang Ning said as she patted her chest. "Why are there so many people?"
"Most of them are from your company," Fu Xiuyuan said coldly.
Jiang Ning quickly shrank her neck. Indeed, this was the trouble she had caused Shi Jin, but she was not at fault either. Was success not better than failure?
Fu Xiuyuan said coldly, "I've already gotten Song Fan to arrange for some people to go to the Jiang family to help you keep an eye on them. You're on your own."
Jiang Ning was immediately happy. Did this mean that Fu Xiuyuan had actually gotten someone to help her?
In that case, it would not be a problem for her to suppress the restless people from the Jiang family in a short period of time.
She was so excited that she was incoherent. "Master Fu, thank you. I was really out of my wits when I returned this time. It's great that you can help me."
Song Fan, who was driving, reminded kindly, "Why do you think Master Fu helped you?"
Jiang Ning smiled and hooked onto Shi Jin's arm. "Of course it's because I'm good friends with Shi Jin. If anything happens to me, Shi Jin won't be at ease, so Master Fu is afraid that I'll drag her down."
Fu Xiuyuan didn't say anything else, but the words "It's good that you know" were written all over his body.
After sending Jiang Ning off, Shi Jin and Fu Xiuyuan returned to the Fu residence.
Old Master Fu's face was clearly happy as he picked up the phone. "Aiya, you flatter me. Shi Jin is originally a child of the Li family. Like father, like daughter."
After hanging up, he gestured for the two of them to sit down.
"Grandpa, Shi Jin is tired. Let her go back and rest first." Fu Xiuyuan did not accept his invitation.
This was not a big deal to Shi Jin. She did not feel that there was any conflict between her and Qin Fanya.
Any competition for Fu Xiuyuan was just Qin Fanya's wishful thinking.
However, it was indeed good news.
In the afternoon, Shi Jin went downstairs to the courtyard to get her herbs and saw Qin Fanya sitting on the sofa.
Seeing Shi Jin, Qin Fanya stood up and greeted, "Shi Jin."
Her smile seemed to be as dignified and generous as ever, and her actions were impeccable. However, there were obvious dark circles around her eyes that even heavy makeup could not hide.
"Yes, Miss Qin." Shi Jin nodded.
Old Master Fu said, "Fanya, come and report to me about work. Shi Jin, do you want to hear it?"
Qin Fanya bit her lip on the spot.
Old Master Fu's meaning was too obvious. He was completely treating her as a staff member, not as one of his own like before.
"I won't trouble you, will I?"
"What's inconvenient about it? Sit," Old Master Fu said reproachfully. "The Fu family is also your family. You have to listen to work matters."
Only then did Shi Jin walk over. She was wearing light-colored lounge clothes and wide-legged pants, making her look casual and natural. Her hair was loose and smooth, and evey strand of hair was exquisite and flawless.
She sat down in front of Qin Fanya and poured her a cup of tea. "Miss Qin, please."
This was how a host treated her guests.
Qin Fanya clenched her cold palm and had no choice but to say, "I was entrusted by Grandpa Fu to go to Country F to do something. I didn't investigate accurately enough in advance, so I caused a huge loss..."
