Xiao Ba had called the police, but before the police came, she saw the boss of Heng Cheng going away flushed with anger when she hurried to the reception room.
Xiao Ba stood at the door for a while, when these people left, and hurried into the room, only to see Ji Nuan sitting in the middle of the reception room, calm as if nothing had happened.
"Boss, are you all right?"
"I'm fine. Did you call the police?"
"Yes, I saw you stayed in for a long time, so I called the police in case something happened..."
Ji Nuan nodded."Okay, let them go to the police station, and the police will make a record. Then the government will know what they have done. They will be overawed and won't come to MN Group and caused trouble again."
Xiao Ba didn't quite get what she meant, but Ji Nuan didn't seem to be frightened at all. Thinking of all the things Ji Nuan had come across in London over the years and how she had always handled them perfectly, Xiao Ba knew her fears were unnecessary.
Two days later, the boss of Heng Cheng went to the government to plead for mercy and dared not make trouble for MN Group again. Soon Heng Cheng Company's branches in Hai City collapsed. Even Heng Cheng's boss dared not show up again, let alone his subordinates. MN Group was no longer harassed by the people from Heng Cheng.

During the weekend, instead of going to work, Ji Nuan cleaned the house by herself and went to the supermarket to buy some food and necessities. Then she cooked herself a delicious lunch at home.
She had done yoga for more than an hour in the afternoon and was finishing up on the floor when her cell phone rang. She rolled around on the carpet, right to the sofa, then sat up to pick up the phone on the end table.
"Hello?"
"Miss Ji, I'm Vinse." The man's voice came from the phone, accompanied by a sound of brakes."I've reserved the restaurant in advance. I'm free in the afternoon, so I came to pick you up."
Ji Nuan grabbed the phone, got up, and ran to the window. Sure enough, Mr. Vinse's car was parked downstairs.
"Didn't you say five in the evening? It's just after three." Ji Nuan glanced at the time.
"You've just come back to China. I remembered before you went back to China, you said you would move after resting for a while, didn't you? I came to see if you have anything to move." Mr. Vinse said briefly, "May I go to your home?"
From a distance, Ji Nuan saw the car door open, and Mr. Vinse, dressed in a suit, got out of the car. But instead of going into the apartment door, she looked up as if looking for which room Ji Nuan was in.
"Just a moment, I'll go downstairs."
Knowing that she didn't want him to go up to her apartment, Mr. Vinse sighed with a smile."What can I do to you in broad daylight? I want to see if you have anything to move, but you don't even want me to go up there."
"My apartment is a mess, and I can't entertain you now, " Ji Nuan said and directly hung up.
Seeing how flatly she refused, Mr. Vinse sighed with a smile and put the phone in his pocket.
Sure enough, ten minutes later, Ji Nuan was downstairs.
She just changed clothes but didn't wear makeup. Her shoulder-length hair was blown back, looking natural and beautiful. She was more beautiful without makeup than many women in the street with elaborate makeup.
"Women at your age usually go out on weekends to date or watch movies, but you shut yourself home on such a fine day. You haven't been downstairs till now today?" Mr. Vinse asked, smiling as he opened the car door.
"No, I went to the supermarket in the morning, but I only bought something and went home." Ji Nuan got into the car and said, "The restaurant you booked is supposed to open at five. You came so early, but my home is such a mess that it's not convenient to let you in. Are we just going to sit in the car talking for two hours?"
Mr. Vinse looked at her, smiling."If you agree, I'd love to chat with you in such a small space for as long as I want."
Ji Nuan looked at him and then looked away."We are going to the mall in the evening anyway. I know there is a good coffee shop there. I used to buy coffee there when I was working in the studio. Why don't we have a cup of coffee?"
"Okay."
"Okay, let's go then." Ji Nuan strapped herself into a safety belt.
"Have you decided where you want to move to? To a place near your office or some other place with good scenery and air?" Mr. Vinse asked as he smiled at her vigorous look and steered the car out of her apartment complex.
"I don't have time to think about that lately. It's enough to have a place to live. I still have to make time to go back to the Ji family to accompany my father, as for the move, although it was my plan, it has been nearly abandoned by me. I really have no time to choose a house."
"The dozens of villas built by BGY Group in the suburbs of the city are quite good. Shall I book for you the one with the best view?"
"No, thanks. Most of the buildings your company builds are large and built around the outskirts of the city. Although they have good air and are suitable for rich people, people like me who are too lazy to drive are suitable to live near the company."
"I have several apartments on the west side of the city. They have been renovated, but I haven't lived there. One of them is near your company. If you haven't decided where to move yet, you can move there."
"Thank you, but no."
"I won't charge you rent. If you say yes, I'll give all the keys and room cards to you so that even I can't get in. What you are afraid of?"
Ji Nuan smiled."I heard you came to Hai City because of BGY's job. You're not from Hai City. Why do you have so many houses in Hai City? The west side is a little more remote. Why do you have an apartment there?"
"If I tell you the truth, I'm afraid you will hide further."
"... Will I?"
Mr. Vinse stopped the car at the red light and turned to look at her."I knew when you were in England that you would come back sooner or later. I saw your office on the western side of the city, and I thought you might live around there one day, so I bought several nice apartments near your office. I hope that when you live in the neighborhood, I will also live there, and we can have a very coincidental encounter every day, and over time, you will be more accustomed to my presence."
