After Transmigrating Into A Cannon Fodder Scum A… Eh? ABO - Chapter 45
Before the alarm clock rang, her biological clock instinctively woke her brain. Qi Mian answered the phone the first second it vibrated and clicked to turn it off.
“It’s seven o’clock…” She mumbled sleepily after looking at the screen. The after-effects of last night’s indulgence appeared at this moment. In order to make it to her nine o’clock class, she still had to get up. When she stepped over Fu Nanxuan, who was still asleep, her brows suddenly furrowed and a painful expression appeared on her face.
She usually had a coach to guide her, paying attention to core and limb exercises, but the soreness of her thigh muscles from overexertion was more obvious than doing five sets of squats plus forty-five minutes of TRX suspension training.
Qi Mian remembered that last night she sat unrestrainedly on Fu Nanxuan’s body, her thigh muscles moving up and down continuously for nearly twenty-five minutes, her buttocks were tense and clamped something tightly from beginning to end, almost making her cry.
Her cheeks suddenly turned red. She couldn’t even stay in the room any longer, and hurriedly rushed to the bathroom to wash her face and tidy up.
Perhaps it was because of a guilty conscience or shyness, she tidied herself up in just twenty minutes, but she didn’t forget to leave a message on Fu Nanxuan’s phone saying that she was going back to class first, and what time it would end.
Qi Mian saw that she was sleeping soundly and didn’t want to wake her up.
Knowing that Fu Nanxuan was sensitive and delicate, if she didn’t leave a word, she didn’t know what she would think again.
On the way to the subway station, she passed a pharmacy. Qi Mian walked past it, then turned back and went to the counter to inquire about Omega-specific birth control pills. After listening to the pharmacist’s explanation of how to use them, she neatly paid the bill and left.
Yesterday Qi Mian went to Fu Nanxuan’s place temporarily, so she didn’t bring her textbooks or anything, and they were still at home. She needed to go home first to pack up before going to school.
When she changed her clothes, she touched the glands on the back of her neck that were bitten and marked by the Alpha for the first time, which were still a little swollen and painful, and realized that she had forgotten to buy ointment just now.
She originally just wanted to talk to her from the perspective of a substitute contract, but encountered Fu Nanxuan’s susceptible period and out-of-control pheromones, and took the initiative to be marked to appease Fu Nanxuan, but ended up making her cry.
She couldn’t bear to admit that she was Qi Mian, and then the two of them went to bed. The progress was so fast that she was still a little unable to recover.
But compared to ointment, what was more important was birth control pills.
After taking them according to the pharmacist’s instructions, it was already eight thirty. Fortunately, she lived close to the school, so she hurriedly took her schoolbag and went out to school.
Fu Nanxuan woke up more than an hour after Qi Mian left. Instinctively reaching out to hug her, but touching an empty space, her sleepiness suddenly dissipated, and a look of panic appeared in her eyes.
She only thought that everything last night was a dream, and Qi Mian didn’t appear at all. It wasn’t until she picked up her phone and saw Qi Mian’s message that she felt relieved.
Now that the person had left, she was not in the mood to rest. After washing up, she answered a few work calls, all of which were asking her about the possibility of investment projects. After the company’s business grew steadily, she delegated the review work to her subordinates, but the few investment projects when M&F was just founded were so amazing that there were still many people who came to her through connections.
After processing the emails, she sent a message to Qi Mian, waiting for her to finish class to pick her up for dinner. She quickly received a reply from the other party: “Okay, boss. Love”
Fu Nanxuan smiled involuntarily, only finding Qi Mian very cute, using this way to remind them of the substitute contract between them. Just as she was about to reply to the other party, the screen popped up a call notification, showing that Jiang Hua was calling. The smile suddenly disappeared.
“Hello,” Fu Nanxuan answered the phone with a slightly cold face.
“Ms. Fu, hello,” Jiang Hua on the other end of the phone was a little nervous and a little proud.
“Mr. Jiang, is there anything?” After Fu Nanxuan told him to contact the secretary if he had anything last time, the progress of the Jiang family was handled by the secretary and sent to her. Fu Nanxuan had been following up and roughly knew that Jiang Du had no way out now. This time Jiang Hua called directly, probably wanting to cooperate with her to add fuel to the fire.
“In the last land investment case, after the bidding failed, several projects did not go smoothly, leading to increased costs. Now the family is very dissatisfied with Jiang Du’s management and wants to pull her down.” Jiang Hua is the most likely candidate to take over besides Jiang Du, and the two are inherently at odds. Jiang Du’s recent management problems are not small, making Jiang Hua’s voice to take over louder, and the family elders who support Jiang Hua are also operating in secret.
The land investment case handled by Jiang Du was not only to create momentum for her as a successor, but also related to whether the Jiang family’s Yufeng Group could take it to the next level and become the largest development group in the area. A lot of resources were invested in the early preparations. It was originally a sure thing, but at the last moment it was taken down by a competitor, making all the investment go to waste at once.
This led to considerable dissatisfaction with her within the family, questioning her ability and qualifications. Although the head of the family, their grandfather Jiang Yao, did not speak, he had already promoted Jiang Hua to the position of vice president a few days ago.
“Then congratulations to Mr. Jiang for having the opportunity to become the heir.” Hearing what he wanted to express, Fu Nanxuan greeted him without changing her face. She didn’t quite look down on Jiang Hua, who could sacrifice the interests of the family for his own personal gain. But this also gave her an opportunity to take advantage of.
Jiang Hua smiled triumphantly, and then pretended to be polite and said, “Not yet, I have to wait a little longer. I heard that Jiang Du has rumors of selling stocks recently, and grandpa is very angry.”
“Is there such a thing?” Fu Nanxuan’s voice expressed surprise, but her face, which the other party could not see, was actually without waves. Yesterday, she received a report from the secretary showing that Jiang Du had already contacted many people privately.
Earlier, Jiang Du was the designated heir and performed well, so Jiang Yao transferred some shares to her early on. This time, the investment case suffered a lot of losses. The early expenses, public relations, manpower and material resources were still a small amount. If this land development case is not won, Yufeng’s scale is destined to lose to its competitors.
Jiang Hua knew that Fu Nanxuan and Jiang Du were classmates, and originally held a hostile attitude towards Fu Nanxuan. But since Fu Nanxuan took the initiative to contact him and asked him to cooperate, several cases he handled were successfully concluded, and his weight in grandpa’s eyes became heavier and heavier. From the initial doubts to the current trust in Fu Nanxuan.
But he is not a fool, and it is impossible to tell the other party the complete internal decision-making of the family. He only vaguely revealed the rumors that were circulating in the market. Jiang Hua was also afraid that Fu Nanxuan was just acting, although the other party said that she had a grudge against Jiang Du.
But the matter has reached its current state, and Jiang Du’s downfall is already a foregone conclusion. Jiang Hua is not afraid of Fu Nanxuan turning against him.
“But Jiang Du has 15% of the shares in her hand. If she really sells them, it will be very risky for the Jiang family’s management,” Fu Nanxuan said.
“Grandpa has already contacted her through her parents to come back.” Jiang Hua said with a smile. “She dare not sell it.”
Just after hanging up the phone with Jiang Hua, Jiang Du happened to call in. Fu Nanxuan answered the call, and before she could even exchange greetings, the other party said very anxiously: “Nanxuan, do you know the person in charge of Infini Investment Capital? Can you help me introduce them?”
“I know IIC’s Leo, what’s wrong?” Fu Nanxuan opened the wine cabinet, picked out a bottle of red wine from two years ago, opened it, and poured it into a glass. After asking unhurriedly, she took a sip.
“I want to sell 10% of the shares of Yufeng in my hand.” Jiang Du’s voice was a little heavy. “But it needs to be acquired according to the current transaction price.” Jiang Yao asked her parents to contact her to return to the main family, definitely to ask her to hand over the shares. But she was very unwilling, thinking that there must be something fishy in it otherwise, how could she lose to Danhai Group? Once the shares are handed back, she will really have no power to recover.
So she wanted to sell some of the stocks in her hand for cash and invest it in her wholly owned company. But after looking for many people, the prices they offered were not very good, and in the end, she could only come to contact Fu Nanxuan.
IIC is also a shareholder of Yufeng, owning 15% of the shares. When it suddenly appeared at that time, it once aroused the vigilance of the Jiang family, but the other party always appointed representatives to attend the board meetings, and did not express much opinion on the company’s governance. Coupled with the fact that the Jiang family’s shareholding accounted for 45% and was still the largest shareholder, they were slightly relieved.
Jiang Du had mentioned the investment case to Fu Nanxuan, so Fu Nanxuan did not show surprised emotions, and Jiang Du did not find it strange. The other party was no longer the high school student who was at the mercy of others, but the head of a company with excellent performance in the overseas investment market. She had never understood Fu Nanxuan before, and now she could not see through her even more.
“I know, I will go to your place recently. I will talk to Leo, and I will contact you when I have news.” Fu Nanxuan shook the wine glass, watching the dark red liquid flow. After listening to the other party thank her a few times, she hung up the phone.
She sent a message to Leo: The big fish is hooked, it’s time to start closing the net. She also notified the secretary to contact Georgeson Company to proceed according to the previous proposal.

The drowsiness that had lasted all day finally reached the time when class was over. Qi Mian originally wanted to leave directly, but Xiang Hailan grabbed her and refused to let her go. “You haven’t replied to my messages much these days. Tell me, do you have another dog!”
Qi Mian didn’t want to lie to Xiang Hailan, but the matter between her and Fu Nanxuan was difficult to explain. It was not only complicated, but the entire process of getting to know each other was incredible. So in the end, she only said: “Didn’t my dad have a case? He asked me to help out, so I’ve been busy these days and haven’t replied to you much.” She signed a substitute contract with Fu Nanxuan, which recorded that she would invest in her father’s company, which could also be considered a kind of help in another sense. Qi Mian thought with great flexibility.
“Is that so? Okay then. You go and get busy. Be sure to find me to go out to eat when you have time.”
Qi Mian replied that she knew, and hurriedly went home. Fu Nanxuan was too good-looking, too conspicuous, and too imposing. Not wanting to be noticed, she asked Fu Nanxuan to wait at her house.
When she got downstairs, she saw Fu Nanxuan sitting upright on the long chair in the flower bed by the door, her expensive outerwear and sharp aura out of place in this ordinary neighborhood.
She walked forward with a bit of amusement, lowered her head and asked her: “Ms. Fu, why are you sitting here? If I make you unhappy, are you still willing to invest in my father’s company?”
Fu Nanxuan had already seen her, but inexplicably wanted to wait for her to take the initiative to walk towards her, so she did not move.
It was not until Qi Mian stood in front of her and heard her say this that she reached out to her, her tone slightly teasing: “How the contract is to be executed, and to what extent, depends on your sincerity.”
