Those who originally wanted to see Nan Zhi make a fool of herself all s.h.i.+vered in fear. Their heads bowed down in trepidation at the thought of their careless words.

They did not know who Mu Sihan was exactly. However, they knew that he was someone not to be trifled, with since he could make the Zhou family be on the brink of bankruptcy within mere minutes.

President Lee thought about President Zhou’s pleas when he was thrown out. Sucking in a deep breath, be grit his teeth and stood up. He was the first. Taking the microphone he bowed deeply to Nan Zhi. “Miss Nan, I was blind to offend you. I’m sorry!”

After President Lee apologized, several old CEOs who had joined in the hooting stood up and apologized as well.

Nan Zhi stared at Mu Sihan’s wide and slender back as she stood behind him. She suddenly felt that he was like a tall and huge mountain. Biting her lips tightly, her bright eyes were covered in a thin layer of moisture.

Being protected by someone like this was something she had not felt in a very long time.

All along, she had thought that she was already strong enough to not need to be protected by anyone. When outsiders pa.s.sed out their judgement and humiliated her, she let the words flow past her, not letting herself take them to heart. That was because she already long learnt to not be upset or angry by unimportant people.

From the moment she had chosen to give birth to Xiaojie, she had already prepared herself to face all sorts of derogatory remarks.

However, she did not expect Mu Sihan to run out and retain her dignity. She felt a tightening in her chest and an overwhelming warmth sprout from within.

Nan Zhi walked forward and tugged Mu Sihan’s sleeves lightly. Her voice was soft. “Thank you, Young Master Mu. However, the sponsors meeting hasn’t ended yet. Let’s not take it further after they apologize…”

Nan Zhi’s slender and fair fingertips touched his palm accidentally when she tugged his sleeve. A slight numbness and he held her small hands domineeringly before she could retract her hand.

In comparison to her small one, his hand was large and strong. One by one, he curled his fingers around her dainty hand.

Nan Zhi’s heart thumped. She tried to take back her hand. However, he was not willing to release his grip and resisted her in his usual domineering way.
