16-year-old Wen Zhu suddenly gains the ability to see something called a "barrage," which tells her she's cannon fodder who's about to be abducted by human traffickers, have her org...
Chapter 178 Opening a Branch
Jiang Ailin received a call from Jiang Sulan.
His tone was filled with shock. "What? Mom, you were demoted? You're the chief physician, how can you be demoted just like that?"
Jiang Sulan was also furious, "Of course the mother and daughter don't have that ability, they must have hooked up with someone powerful.
The reason I called you this time was to ask you to find out what kind of background those two bitches have that allowed them to interfere with the military hospital. I don't believe that a single letter of accusation alone would attract such attention from the higher-ups. Even asking the Sun family for help would be useless."
Jiang Ailin said, "I understand."
She had already made up her mind, no matter who their backers were. Since her mother's plan didn't work, she would do it her own way.
Anyway, her boyfriend has been hanging around her a lot lately and always agrees to her requests, so she might as well ask Chen Guohua for help.
Jiang Sulan was still explaining on the other end of the phone, "Don't be impulsive. You are no match for them. Wait for your father to come back from his business trip and discuss it with him. Just do what I told you to investigate."
Jiang Ailin agreed, but didn't care in his heart.
What can't two country guys do?
It's just that her mother is too cautious and always uses roundabout strategies, but she still got into trouble this time!
If she were to say, it would be better to face it head-on.
"Did you hear that?"
Jiang Ailin replied perfunctorily, "Mom, I understand."
"Also, don't let your grandparents know that those two bitches are back. Keep it a secret. Don't tell them about my demotion either. I'll try to find my connections in the Sun family and see if I can reinstate you once the storm has died down."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Ailin immediately made an appointment to meet with Chen Guohua.
As soon as they met, Chen Guohua immediately put his arm around Jiang Ailin's shoulders, pulled her into his arms, and asked jokingly, "Little goblin, do you miss your brother Chen?"
Then he took the opportunity to touch her body.
This caused Chen Ailin to exclaim in surprise.
I subconsciously looked around and saw someone looking at me strangely. I quickly pushed him away.
"Stop messing around. I have something important to talk to you about. I'll talk to you later..."
As he said this, he pushed Chen Guohua away and pulled him to sit on a park bench.
Chen Guohua was still dishonest, but he had restrained himself a little.
"Come on, what's the matter with you, brother? Tell me."
Seeing that there were not many people around, Jiang Ailin did not stop his little actions and gave him some sweet treats.
She has always been well aware of this: men need to be kept in suspense.
How can you expect him to do things for you willingly without giving him some benefits?
So she let out a soft moan, then pouted and said angrily.
"Didn't I tell you before that my grandparents once took away the wrong child? After my mother found her, she did all sorts of bad things and was kicked out of the house!"
"I have heard of it, and then what?"
Jiang Ailin slapped his rebellious hand away and continued, "That adopted daughter of the Jiang family who was wrongly reported has now returned to Jing City with her daughter. I don't know what kind of backing she found, but she actually wants to take root in Jing City. Isn't that a slap in my mother's face?"
As for the fact that her mother had interfered with their store opening and led to her demotion, Jiang Ailin did not mention a word about it.
She is not stupid. What if Chen Guohua is afraid of wolves and tigers and is unwilling to help her after she tells him?
When Chen Guohua heard this, he realized that since it involved his girlfriend's biological mother, she might also be his future mother-in-law, so he had to take care of this matter.
I just don't know the other person's background.
"Don't worry, you're from a military compound, and your father is in the army, so what are you afraid of?
Besides, didn’t you say before that your childhood friends were all very capable? Especially that eldest brother, Brother Sheng. I’ve heard you say that several times. His father holds a high position in the government, and he’s doing well. If things really don’t work out, go ask your childhood friends for help!
Chen Guohua felt guilty for a moment.
After all, the so-called childhood friend is nothing more than him clinging to those "big shots" in other people's compound, being their younger brother and making himself familiar to them.
In fact, he was only a little familiar with one of them.
I got in through this relationship.
After Brother Sheng went to Ningcheng, he acted nice and tried to please them every day, and finally his relationship with them started to improve.
As a result, the last time I took Jiang Ailin to a gathering among brothers, there was an unpleasantness, and they didn't invite me these times.
How could he bring himself to say that?
But he couldn't admit that he was incompetent, so he raised his voice a little, "No need to ask for help, I can handle this. Isn't it just making it difficult for two women to survive in Beijing? It's easy as pie."
As he said that, he looked at Jiang Ailin, "Then what reward are you going to give me? We haven't been close for a long time..."
Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Jiang Ailin angrily pushed him and said, "Come to my house tonight. My grandpa is sick and in the hospital, and my grandma is taking care of him. There's no one at home. Come over tonight."
…
After Wen Zhu finished her breakfast, she didn't plan to go to the store. She wanted to find another store and open a bigger one. This one was just a small or medium-sized store.
When there are too many passengers, it becomes crowded.
I had originally planned to open a branch, so I told Jiang Qin and went to look for it.
Qian Jingsheng followed him everywhere.
Wen Zhu tried to persuade him to go back and be alone, but was rejected.
"I'll accompany you. It's okay anyway. Besides, I'm more familiar with this place."
As for the latter point, Wen Zhu really couldn't refuse.
So the two of them went to find a store together.
Then, Qian Jingsheng took Wen Zhu straight to the Housing Management Office.
Wen Zhu: ...
Didn’t you say you were more familiar with her?
However, based on the store information provided, Qian Jingsheng found an acquaintance and helped her screen out a batch according to Wen Zhu's request.
A moment later.
"All three meet your requirements. The store is large enough, the location is good, there are businesses nearby, and it's far enough away from the previous store. Do you want me to take you there for a look?"
Wen Zhu, who was a little skeptical at first, was now convinced. It turned out that the natives were better than an outsider like her.
As he spoke, he naturally took Wen Zhu's hand.
The acquaintance looked at the two people holding hands with a gossipy look on his face.
The smile was particularly gossipy.
Qian Jingsheng thanked him directly, "Thank you, I'll treat you to dinner later. I'll take my partner there first, so please keep these for me."
"No problem, no problem. This old classmate of ours must be kept for you. Bring your partner over to see it."
After the two left, the old classmate immediately started gossiping with his acquaintances.
"Ah, my classmate who's so cool is dating now. She's the tallest guy in our class at the time, the one who got specially recruited for outstanding grades. Her last name is Qian! His girlfriend is so beautiful, ahhh, what a perfect match!"
The two people who had just left the house naturally heard it as well.
Qian Jingsheng couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips.
I am proud of it.
To praise someone is to praise him.
Wen Zhu: It's over. This old classmate is a big shot. Now all his classmates know about it. Will he be embarrassed when we break up later?
Sighed.
Qian Jingsheng looked at her, "Why, are you unhappy?"
Wen Zhu shook his head, "No, I'm just not used to it."
Qian Jingsheng let go of her hand and said, "Then I'll hold your hand in private."
Then, like magic, he handed her a bottle of ice soda.
"Drink it. You won't get a heat stroke."
