Molly was devastated by Hung Hing's heartless words, and disappointment welled up in her eyes.
"Is this what you really think?" Jiang Wanqing asked, looking at him.
"yes!"
Without even thinking, he gave an answer. The factory manager's assistant laughed even more arrogantly, looking at them coldly.
"Don't humiliate yourselves here. Everyone who can survive here knows how to adapt to the times. Only you guys are foolish! You're supposed to be students at Huada University, but you're worse than idiots!"
The factory manager's assistant used extremely insulting language, saying that if he couldn't have it, he would destroy it. This was probably at Zheng Yuan's behest. Jiang Wanqing gradually loosened her grip and looked at Molly.
"Let's go!"
“Wanqing…but he…” She looked at Hongxing with the last glimmer of hope.
She hoped he would see the error of his ways and stand on their side, but his gaze towards them remained unwavering.
"Didn't you hear that he doesn't want us to disturb his peaceful life? Let's go, there's no need to stay here any longer."
Between Hung Hing and Kong Wan Ching, Molly chose to leave with the latter, but her frequent glances back revealed her reluctance.
A struggle and repression flashed in Hong Xing's eyes. He felt a couple of pats on the shoulder, and the factory manager's assistant nodded at him.
"That's right, our Factory Director Zheng was right about you. Keep up the good work, and you'll definitely get a high salary and promotion in the future."
"Thank you, I will definitely work hard. I'll get back to work now." Hung Hing pointed to the goods that hadn't been unloaded yet.
"Okay, go ahead."
As soon as he left, the factory manager's assistant's eyes darkened, he gritted his teeth, and went to the back office.
After leaving, Molly still couldn't understand Jiang Wanqing's actions. After leaving the factory area, she thought for a moment and grabbed Jiang Wanqing's arm.
"Wanqing, what are you thinking about? Just now, it was clearly..."
"He could have held on a little longer. Hung Hing might have been too easily deceived. Should we take him away?"
"Yes...yes, he's definitely not that kind of person, although I don't know why this time..."
Molly pursed her lips, feeling her guilt deepen for some reason. It seemed that Hung Hing had fallen into Zheng Yuan's kind trap to avoid her, and because of her, Jiang Wanqing was almost manipulated. Thinking about it, her eyes involuntarily reddened.
Patting his back, Jiang Wanqing smiled and said, "Since you believe he's not that kind of person, then rest assured, okay? He won't go astray this time either."
Upon hearing this, Molly immediately looked up, her expression a mixture of surprise and joy.
"Really?"
"Okay, let's go. We've made things clear. Now it's up to him."
“Great! I knew it…” Molly clenched her fist and took a deep breath.
After glancing at the factory area behind her, Molly finally stopped hesitating and began to leave.
The factory site selection process was not interrupted by Zheng Yuan's interference. Jiang Wanqing turned around and actively looked for other locations. Of course, as expected, wherever they looked, that cunning man would choose that location. Relying on his power and connections, he did create a lot of obstacles for them.
But this made Jiang Wanqing even more diligent in finding addresses. Or rather, she used to have some limitations in her mind, but now she completely let go and searched, regardless of whether it was the city center or the suburbs, she would go and talk to them first.
Yue Shuzhen and the others all thought she had gone mad from the shock and tried to persuade her.
“I said, don’t bother working for nothing. You’ll end up with nothing. You might as well take a break for a while. Maybe he’ll just stop caring about us when he’s such a big factory manager. It’s not too late to start the factory business then.”
"Yes, Wanqing, don't put too much pressure on yourself. We won't blame you."
She shook her head, and a strange light flashed in her eyes. Whether it was an illusion or not, it seemed to give the impression that she was confident of victory.
"I have to go back now. The factory project will definitely be a success. Wait for my good news."
"Eh..."
She grabbed her things and left without giving anyone a chance to persuade her. Qin Meng watched her retreating figure with concern.
"well."
After Jiang Wanqing went downstairs, she didn't see Cheng Ran. Thinking that he must be a little late today, she walked out along the school path.
Little did they know, he had already arrived, only to clash with Zheng Yuan again at the school gate...
He rode his old-fashioned bicycle and saw a car parked outside the gate of Huazhong University of Science and Technology as soon as he arrived.
This was originally a very ordinary thing, but after taking a second look, he felt that the license plate was familiar. Upon closer inspection, it was indeed Zheng Yuan.
The two met face to face. Zheng Yuan got out of the car and, facing Cheng Ran's scrutinizing and unfriendly gaze, pushed up his glasses and greeted him.
"Comrade Cheng, what a coincidence!"
"Hmph, coincidence? I hope it really is a coincidence, but with your despicable and treacherous nature, a coincidence is probably impossible."
"I think you've misunderstood me. I'm just someone who loves talent, and I haven't done anything immoral. How can I bear your evaluation of me?" He spread his hands, looking both aggrieved and smug.
Turning black into white has always been his forte. Cheng Ran gritted his teeth, but restrained himself from taking action because it was at the school gate.
Just as he turned around, Zheng Yuan called out to him, "Comrade Cheng, please persuade Wanqing. She shouldn't be so stubborn. The conditions I've given her are absolutely the best. It's pointless to get stuck on things. Besides... I haven't gone all the way yet. You still have a chance."
"What exactly are you..."
"Cheng Ran!"
His steps were abruptly halted by Jiang Wanqing's calls.
She jogged toward her, showing wariness, disgust, and distance towards Zheng Yuan.
"Let's go home and talk about it."
She had nothing more to say to Zheng Yuan; even looking at him was too much for her eyes. She immediately pulled Cheng Ran away.
However, the other person shamelessly called out to her, strode up to them, and blocked their way.
"Wanqing, I know we didn't have a good time at the factory last time, but as I said, I'm willing to give you a chance. I heard you've been running into walls everywhere lately." As he spoke, he glanced at Cheng Ran and raised an eyebrow: "That means I'm the only one who can help you. What are you still arguing about?"
Is he telling the truth?
Cheng Ran frowned. He had heard from Jiang Wanqing that everything was going smoothly and that she had directly refused his help, but Zheng Yuan's words now stunned him.
"No, even if I hit a hundred walls, I will not give up as long as I have one chance to succeed."
"Hahaha...you're too naive."
Whether it's naive or not, we'll see.
Jiang Wanqing gave a strange smile, her fearless gaze seemingly genuine. Zheng Yuan's smile slowly faded, and before he could say anything more, the couple had already taken hands and headed home together.
"You'll come back on your knees begging me!" he gritted his teeth.
"yawn!"
As soon as she sneezed, Cheng Ran immediately put a coat on her, but he still looked a little unhappy.
"Don't push yourself when you shouldn't. You'll only exhaust yourself and not achieve your goal, which is a losing proposition."
"How do you know I didn't achieve my goal?" She tilted her head.
