Chapter 230 It’s all her

Liang Jing was also annoyed and pointed at Zheng Yuan, "You heard it, I tried to persuade him out of comradeship, but he didn't appreciate my kindness and turned around to threaten me. Lao Guan is waiting for us to get back together. You go and reply, I can't reply to this!"

Jiang Jingyan looked at his watch. There was still an hour before the meeting started. Fortunately, he had eaten halfway and didn't have to worry about wasting time.

"Jingyan." Zheng Yuan was at his wit's end, caught between the two, comforting one and persuading the other. "As you said, we'll help you convey this to the higher-ups, but you can't continue with what you're doing. I promise Sister Jing and I will find another solution. Let's each take a step back, okay?"

"No, once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back."

"Mr. Jiang is still being held in the provincial government! You have to think about him, right?"

Jiang Jingyan propped his fingers on the side of his face and said indifferently, "My father said that as long as I am still here, I don't need my son to clean up my mess."

Liang Jing was about to retort when her cell phone started buzzing in her pocket.

She took it out and said, "Look, look! Lao Guan is asking for my life, I really owe you!"

Jiang Jingyan remained unmoved and glanced at Zheng Yuan, "Is the bank progressing smoothly?"

Zheng Yuan frowned. "Shunli, there's a CEO named Ji who introduced several important clients to the bank. The informant can't get inside information for the time being. Have you heard of this person?"

"Ji Mingyin, he's involved in most of the shady industries in southern Zhou. Keep a close eye on him. I suspect Meng Hongwen has placed a significant bet on him. Furthermore, his lust is his fatal weakness."

Zheng Yuan wrote down the key information. "Don't worry about these. That's all for the future. Unless Meng Hongwen is pushed too far, he'll try to escape. I just want to catch Xu Jing quickly. The account she used to transfer assets is empty. The bank must have tricked her into splitting the funds and closing the loop of physical repatriation. They're actually trying to trap her and rob her."

"More than that." Jiang Jingyan stared ahead, his words shrouded in secrecy. "Don't forget, she has connections with the Yan family. Yan Baiqing will take over next week, and the Nanhong bracelet case will definitely be concluded before then. Xu Jing and Mr. and Mrs. Feng, the president of the Yan family, are all stepping stones for him to ascend to the top."

"They betrayed their own people?" Zheng Yuan was surprised. These wealthy nobles, especially those with family businesses as big as the Yan family, could suffer losses of hundreds of millions with just a slight mistake. They never made any public announcements about their internal fighting, otherwise, once the outside world was alerted, people with ulterior motives would take advantage of the situation. Yan Baiqing had made a big fuss this time and exposed the family's dirty laundry.

Jiang Jingyan patiently explained, "That was the former chairman of Yan's people, not his own."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liang Jing returned after answering the phone.

"What time does your meeting end?" She didn't address him, but was in a bad mood, almost gritting her teeth.

Jiang Jingyan looked at her and said, "Seven o'clock."

The city has a single project that requires cooperation with other provinces. Huasheng, as the main review unit, participated in the inter-provincial meeting to understand the rules of this project. He thought the chairman went to the group for this, but he did not find him directly. Instead, he waited quietly in the office. It is likely that his purpose is the same as these two people.

"The meeting is over, Lao Guan wants to see you."

"No time."

"This is an order!"

"Whose order?" Jiang Jingyan chuckled. "Bring me the documents. I work at Huasheng and cannot easily leave my post. This is the rule."

Liang Jing took a deep breath and suppressed his anger. "Lao Guan is in charge of personnel transfers. He has the right to remove anyone, whether it's the general manager or the chairman of Huasheng."

"Remove who, me?"

The man rubbed his lighter, the flame burst out, his eyes flickered, and he stared at the two people in fear.

"If Secretary Liang doesn't understand, let me remind you that I shouldered the turmoil at the bank in Zhounan, the losses recovered by the province, and the challenges facing Huasheng. I took all the blame for anyone I offended and the dirty water they threw at me. I have enemies everywhere, but I never needed my superiors to speak up for me. Now, I'm protecting my woman on my own, and you're bringing up the matter of 'removal'."

Zheng Yuan felt cold sweat on his back. In the past ten years, Jiang Jingyan had never been so arrogant as to boast about his achievements. He himself knew that if he really caused trouble, the province might tolerate him, but Jiang Zhongyi would also be angry, so he always kept a low profile. This was also what his superiors appreciated. There were people with courage and strategy, but only he, with his family background, strong personal skills and strict discipline, could fight his way out of the hands of those who held real power. Otherwise, if it was someone with weak will, he could make a mistake with revenge or sugar-coated bullets and become an enemy who knew the inside story. Wouldn't that be nurturing a tiger to harm himself?

But it was really unlike Jiang Jingyan to talk about his achievements openly now. Zheng Yuan finally understood that the "ruthlessness" he mentioned was not a joke.

Jiang Jingyan put out his cigarette, pushed the door open and got out of the car. Standing tall and broad, he stood before the two men with his hands behind his back. "Deputy Director Zheng, I'm telling you about Yan Baiqing's former secretary. Does that count as cooperating with your work?"

Zheng Yuan's face and neck felt hot. "Forget it."

He looked to the side again, "Secretary Liang, the province needs a bait. As Meng Hongwen's student, am I qualified to be one?"

Liang Jing stubbornly refused to nod.

"Whether you admit it or not, perhaps in your eyes, 'Jiang Jingyan's' future and reputation are very important to the province, but in my heart, you know what is most important." Jiang Jingyan paused. "Meng Hongwen once had close contacts with an engineering company in Zhounan. The boss of that company is the brother of another person involved in the Chen family's old case. If I hand over this witness, along with the clues I have secretly collected over the years about Meng's party abusing their power for personal gain, does that count as cooperating with your work?"

He spoke with great force, and the sunlight shone on the edges of his resolute face, making his aura seem particularly strong.

This was his biggest concession. Liang Jing compromised, "Forget it."

"Can I go to the meeting now?"

They moved out of the way.

Jiang Jingyan walked past with steady steps.

…

At night, Chen Qing learned to make soup according to the recipe in the restaurant.

There was a noise coming from the entrance. She couldn't get away and shouted, "I'm here!"

Sister Qin walked in and said, "No, Mr. Jiang, there is a package for you."

"Package?" Chen Qing wiped his hands, adjusted the heat, and took it to check.

After reading a line of words, she looked up and smiled, "It's music sheet. I'll put it back in the bedroom. Please keep an eye on the soup pot for me."

"Okay, go ahead."

Chen Qing clutched the edge of the envelope, went upstairs, and locked the bedroom.

At the same time, Jiang Jingyan entered the community from the small gate of the Imperial Mansion under the cover of night. Instinctively, he glanced at the side of the road but found nothing.

He had specifically investigated this area and found that the occupancy rate was not high, but the identities of the residents were sensitive in their own ways, so there were three unknown paths hidden in the community as a precautionary measure to avoid the media and private detectives.

Jiang Jingyan took a detour back to Building 3, stepped into the courtyard, and heard Chen Qing shouting.

His heart ached and he quickened his pace.

"What's wrong?"

Chen Qing ran out of the kitchen and jumped on him, refusing to get off. "The fish Sister Qin bought can even jump!"

"Why are you joining in the fun?" Jiang Jingyan held her in one hand and her slippers in the other, and carried her back to the sofa steadily.

The living room was brightly lit. Chen Qing's face was clean and fair, his eyes filled with bright light and shadow. "I want to show you my skills."

The man raised an eyebrow, held her upright, placed his palm under her hip, and pinched it teasingly, "Have you learned it?"

"It's not difficult. I was at the Luo family before, and Mrs. Luo and I cooked a big table for Mr. Luo's birthday."

"I underestimated you."

Chen Qing's eyes quickly swept towards the kitchen, and she quickly kissed him on the lips, then stood up. "I'm going to cook, you take a rest."

Jiang Jingyan looked at her, his smile growing wider. The fatigue he had felt outside was instantly gone, and his eyes and heart were filled with her.
