Ning Gang nodded. “I only found out when I saw the news online this morning. The people I sent to follow them these two days gave me feedback. I only know that Tan Ming has already signed a contract with Jiang Huai’s new entertainment company and is now the only artist under him.”

When Si Cheng heard this news, he pursed his lips tightly and narrowed his eyes. He told her what he had seen at the opening ceremony of the Tianqi branch that day. “Logically speaking, no matter how famous Jiang Huai is in the entertainment industry, he’s just an actor. How can he influence the decision of capital? But if it weren’t for him pulling strings, the only other possible card she could pull is the Tan family, who wouldn’t have the status to know Tianqi’s people.”

Ning Gang lowered his eyes for a moment and suddenly thought of something. He looked up and said, “If I remember correctly, Tianqi’s founder is the wife of the CEO of the Jiang Group. Tianqi handed the management rights to the Jiang Group more than ten years ago.”

Si Cheng widened his eyes slightly and looked at Ning Gang. “You think Jiang Huai is related to the Jiang Corporation?!”

The Si Corporation was also involved in the clothing industry. Although they were in the middle to low-end market, as the leader of the domestic clothing industry, they would always pay attention to Tianqi’s actions.

Ning Gang thought for a moment before replying, “It’s possible. Recently, I haven’t heard of any strategic adjustments to the market from Tianqi, and there haven’t been any changes in personnel. Under such circumstances, it can basically be ruled out as due to commercial factors.”

Si Cheng nodded in agreement. “Moreover, if it was really for commercial reasons, it would be impossible to invite a newbie like Tan Ming. I even carefully studied the clothes Tan Ming was wearing. It’s very similar to the design style of Madam Jiang, the founder of Tianqi. However, she hasn’t produced any designs for more than ten years. If it’s really her work, then this matter… is getting stranger and stranger.”

“Ning Gang, keep a close eye. Also, investigate Jiang Huai’s background again.”

Ning Gang nodded in agreement. Seeing Si Cheng’s frown, his slightly opened mouth finally closed again.

Si Cheng noticed that Ning Gang wanted to say something but hesitated. He asked curiously, “What’s wrong? If you have something to say, just say it. Is there anything you can’t say between the both of us?”

Ning Gang exhaled heavily and made up his mind again. He looked into Si Cheng’s eyes and said seriously, “Si Cheng, I want to resign.”

Now that he had started, it was not so difficult to continue.

Ning Gang took out a resignation letter and form from the folder in his hand and placed them on Si Cheng’s desk. “The company is running quite well now, and you’re handling things more and more skillfully, so I want to leave and do something myself.”

Ning Gang had entered the Si Corporation with him as soon as he graduated. Si Cheng had not recovered at first, but after hearing Ning Gang’s plan, although he was reluctant, he still chose to give his blessings. He smiled and said, “I knew you wouldn’t work for me for the rest of your life. Just think about it yourself. What industry do you plan to enter?”

Ning Gang realized that Si Cheng was not dissatisfied with him because of this. His emotions were complicated. “I haven’t decided yet. I’m still in the middle of researching.”

Si Cheng reached out and patted Ning Gang’s shoulder. He sincerely blessed him. “Good luck. Although all good things must come to an end, our relationship as brothers will not change. If you need any help in the future, just let me know.”

Ning Gang’s lips curled up slightly. He looked at Si Cheng’s black eyes and replied, “Okay.”

“There’s still a month before I leave. I’ll continue to complete the investigation and tracking. I’ve also been doing the handover for other things.”

Si Cheng nodded. He picked up a pen and signed his name on Ning Gang’s application form. He handed it to Ning Gang. “You’ve been in the Si Corporation for so many years. You know the process. You can handle the rest yourself.”

Ning Gang took the form and looked at his superior’s signature. He was filled with emotions. After putting the resignation application back into the folder, he thought for a moment and looked up at Si Cheng again. “Si Cheng, I saw with my own eyes how Tan Ming took care of you during the two years you were in a coma. To put it bluntly, even blood-related relatives might not be able to do better than she did. Sometimes, when you look at people with your heart, it might be more accurate than what you see with your eyes.”

“I know that you’ve been brooding over Tan Ming’s past, but I still want to say this because I don’t want you to regret it one day.”

Si Cheng looked at Ning Gang’s serious gaze and remained silent..
