On Monday, Ruan Qi wanted to go to school with Tang Beibei.
Ruan Qi felt like she was going to become an invalid if she stayed in bed every day.
Song Zhou wanted her to continue take leave to rest at home but Ruan Qi refused.
She said that her pregnancy wasnât showing yet and she could still attend classes.
Even if she had to take leave, it would be in the second half of the year. She couldnât fail the courses in the first half of the year, or she would have to retake them.
After sending the two girls to school, Jiang Jingchen went to the office.
When he arrived at Jiang Corporation, everyone was rushing around discussing rumors about the company in hushed voices.
âWill the company go bankrupt because of financial problems?â
âDonât joke around. Jiang Corporation is a big company. How can it fold just like that? Thatâs not realistic.â
âBut this matter has caused a huge commotion. Many mainstream media outlets are reporting it. There are even lawyers who predict that the head honcho of Jiang Corporation may get into a lawsuit this time.â
âThe chairman has absolute say in the company and is also the core of the companyâs management. If anything happens to him, the company will definitely be in trouble.â
Although everyone felt that Jiang Corporation was an established company with a glorious history for more than 30 years, things changed too quickly nowadays. Many large companies were gone just like that. Who could guarantee that Jiang Corporation would not disappear in a day?
Jiang Jingchen calmly went upstairs. After he got to his desk, he observed everyoneâs expressions.
He also answered the phone obligingly and answered some of the customersâ queries.
A customer asked about a loan and gave Jiang Jingchen some new ideas. After listening to the customer for a little while, Jiang Jingchen took out his phone and sent a message to Yang Hao.
The procedure that the caller described was a little complicated. Jiang Jingchen couldnât handle it, so he asked Wu Rui over to help.
Wu Rui walked over and took the phone from Jiang Jingchen. The customer had forgotten to repay a loan and didnât know how much to repay, so he asked the customer service staff to help check.
Wu Rui logged in using his employee account and checked the repayment amount. He was stunned for a few seconds before Jiang Jingchen reminded him that the customer was still on the line.
It was not strange for a big company to give out loans, but the interest⦠Wu Rui hung up the phone and went back to his desk.
Jiang Jingchen looked at Wu Ruiâs back and was very curious about who he was.
After a while, the employees gathered around and talked about how the court had sent someone over just now and took Jiang Xing and a few higher-ups of the company back with them.
âWhatâs going on?â
âI heard that itâs a financial crime. Someone has embezzled the companyâs money.â
âEh, itâs not embezzlement. The CEO has been sabotaged by the people from finance.â
âI heard that itâs about a new employee in finance, a young lady, who has just joined us for two months. She was molested by the head of the finance department. The young lady resigned angrily, but the department head didnât agree and even threatened her to sleep with him.â
âThe new girl is a high achiever and has a boyfriend who studied law, so the two of them sued the department head but were humiliated by him.â
âThese two are also ruthless people. In for a penny, in for a pound. They took the entire Jiang Corporation to court instead and exposed the companyâs financial wrongdoings!â
âSigh, if thereâs a problem with the finance department, thereâll definitely be a problem with our net cash flow. We are probably not going to get our salaries soon, right?â
Salary payments affected every employee, so everyone was very nervous.
If the company couldnât pay their salaries, it meant that the company was going bankrupt, and they would be unemployed!
Jiang Jingchen listened to their discussion and realized what move Yang Hao had made. He smiled.
Yang Haoâs tactics had improved.
He propped his chin as he watched the share price of Jiang Corporation, which had fallen quite a bit.
The effects of public opinion on the stock market was getting more significant nowadays. If Jiang Xing didnât have a good public relations team now, they would probably lose the battle.
He said to Yang Hao, âSpread more negative news about the company. When the share price of Jiang Corporation falls further, weâll start buying.â
Yang Hao replied OK. He had already asked someone to do that.
âMr. Chen, Jiang Xing sent someone to investigate me, but they were stopped by Wen Sangâs people.â
Jiang Jingchen replied, âOh? Then let Wen Sang walk to the front and pretend that the heir of the Wen family is going to take over the market.â
Yang Hao thought for a few seconds, understood Jiang Jingchenâs intention and laughed.
âMr. Chen, you are the most vicious person Iâve ever met.â
âThank you for the compliment. Communicate closely with Wen Sang. Give her what she wants.â
Yang Hao sighed. âWen Sang is like a leopardess. Mr. Chen, arenât you afraid that she will be greedy and devour me?â
Jiang Jingchen replied. âLeopardess? You are underestimating her! Itâs to your benefit if she wants to devour you.â
Yang Hao read the message several times to make sure that he was not mistaken.
He scolded Jiang Jingchen for being vicious and there it was.
He actually expected him to sell his body!
However, he was fine having a one-night stand with Wen Sang, but a relationship? Forget it.
Jiang Jingchen was vicious, but Wen Sang was also full of evil ideas!
In a classroom at school, Fu Jin patted Tang Beibei on the shoulder.
âBeibei, why did you miss training yesterday?â
Tang Beibei covered half of her face guiltily and said with a smile, âMy phone ran out of battery yesterday. I didnât see your message.â
âOh? 1 also sent a message to your husband. Your husbandâs phone was out of battery too?â
âDid you? 1 didnât know.â
Fu Jin lectured her with a long face. âI donât think your phone was out of battery. Youâre the one whoâs out of battery. Youâre taking your training lightly.â
âNo, no, Captain. I train very seriously.â
Fu Jin showed a video to her. âSomeone who trains seriously goes to an arcade to play games?â
âEh, how did you know?â Tang Beibei was surprised.
âA passerby probably recognized you and took a video. Someone in the team also told me that you played truant and skipped training to play.â
Tang Beibei rubbed her forehead. âWhoâs the snitch? How childish.â
Fu Jinâs elegant face was filled with schadenfreude. âItâs definitely an opponent of yours! Why? Are you unhappy that I caught you?â
âIâm not unhappy, Captain. I was wrong.â
Fu Jin knocked on her forehead. âMake up for your mistake if you did wrong. Iâll create a social media account for you guys in the next few days. You guys can post more videos to accumulate popularity. Youâll need it when the competition comes.â
Tang Beibei nodded repeatedly to show that she would comply.
After classes, Tang Beibei obediently followed Fu Jin to dance training.
When they walked past the flower beds, she saw that the begonias in school had all bloomed. She liked them very much and took out her phone to take a few photos.
Fu Jin looked at her photography skills and held his forehead in disdain.
He took her phone and said, âGo stand there. Iâll take a photo for you. The photos you took are quite embarrassing.â
Tang Beibei also felt that she didnât take good photos and posed obediently. But her pose was stiff, with one hand holding a flower, like how most old ladies would pose when taking a photo. Fu Jin laughed.
âBeibei, donât deliberately look at the camera. Relax and smile.â
âI, I donât know what to do if I donât look at the camera.â
She felt her entire body stiffen, her gaze blank, and her expression a little dumb. She didnât know how to pose.
âLook at that flower. Let me ask you, do you like to dance?â
Tang Beibei smiled. âYes.â
âDo you like studying?â
âYes!â
âDo you like Fu Jin?â
ââ¦?â
Fu Jin watched as the woman turned her head in a daze. She looked ignorant and innocent. Her clear eyes were like a lost fawnâs. She looked really cute.
âI was just kidding. Donât take it seriously.â
Tang Beibei heaved a sigh of relief and explained, âCaptain, youâre just a good friend. Donât confuse the boundaries.â
Fu Jin asked with a bitter smile, âAre you worried that Iâll keep pestering you?â
âNo, Iâm worried that my husband will be angry.â Tang Beibei puffed up her face. âItâs really difficult to coax him when heâs angry with me.â
Fu Jin licked his teeth as he berated himself for asking her such an idiotic question.
Meanwhile, a woman behind the two of them was taking a video of them with her phone..
