There was no point in arguing with him. Knowing that he was no longer usable, Jiang Wanqing was too lazy to deal with him.
She glanced at Cheng Ran, who, as her husband, immediately understood and headed straight for the desk and bookshelf.
"Comrade Cheng, you don't understand, don't..."
Jiang Wanqing pressed down on Yang Chang's hand, giving Jiang Yuan, who wanted to step forward to stop her, a warning look in her eyes.
"If I say he understands, then he understands. Anyone who dares to go up there is hiding something!"
One sentence silenced them both. Cheng Ran raised his eyelids and continued searching for the order contract on the table and bookshelf with a cold smile, but it was nowhere to be found.
He shook his head at Jiang Wanqing, then noticed that there was another locked drawer that hadn't been opened, so he gestured to her again.
"There's a locked drawer here."
"That is..."
Jiang Yuan hurriedly spoke, but was interrupted by Jiang Wanqing before she could finish.
"Take the key and open it!"
"The key... isn't with me," she said softly, her head down.
"Who has the key?"
After Jiang Wanqing asked, she didn't hear a reply for a long time. However, she caught a glimpse of Yang Chang's hand twitching out of the corner of her eye, and she understood. She then looked directly at him.
"Do you need me to do it?"
"No... Comrade Jiang, I don't have the key either. How about we wait for Comrade Yan to come back..."
He was drenched in cold sweat; Jiang Wanqing was clearly trying to kill him! He had to stay calm.
"Still bringing up Comrade Yan? Believe me, if I wanted to, I could send someone to bring her back right now and ask her what happened!"
She was furious. She felt like she was being played like a fool by the person she trusted. Did they really think she had no temper?
The atmosphere in the small office was oppressive and quiet. Yang Chang wanted to continue the stalemate, but Cheng Ran didn't give him a chance and went straight to search him.
He was shocked: "Comrade Cheng, this is illegal..."
"Compared to what you've done, breaking the law is probably more convincing!"
Cheng Ran glared at him, and Yang Chang closed his eyes, not daring to move. Soon after, Cheng Ran found the key in Yang Chang's pocket.
Without a moment's delay, Cheng Ran immediately used his key to open the drawer lock and found a document inside. He glanced at it; it contained a lot of data, which he figured was what Jiang Wanqing wanted. He then immediately handed it to her.
"Take a look and see if this is it."
She took it and carefully looked through it. After about fifteen minutes, she pinched a corner of the document and threw it in front of Yang Chang.
"This is all the trust I placed in you, and you've disappointed me terribly!"
"Comrade Jiang, is there... a problem with the order? I... I really didn't do anything."
Yang Chang was still struggling. As long as he insisted that he hadn't done anything, the order shouldn't show any obvious evidence. After all, he had tampered with it a little, even if he hadn't finished.
"Ha, you didn't do anything? Are you trying to tell me the workers outside are working themselves to the bone, but the factory doesn't have nearly that many orders, and I'm just seeing things?!"
Her voice was filled with anger, and Yang Chang swallowed hard, forcing himself to calm down.
"Hehe, Comrade Jiang, you don't know what happened while you were away. Some workers were slacking off, and the products they made were substandard. Our partners returned them and asked us to rework them, which is why we've been so busy."
"He really found a good excuse," Jiang Wanqing gritted her teeth and questioned coldly.
"Even at a time like this, you still think I'm a fool? Since you're not going to say anything, fine, see you at the police station!"
Upon hearing the words "police station," Yang Chang's eyes widened, and he could no longer maintain his facade, rising up in anger.
"Why did you take me to the police station?! I didn't break the law! Even if you go there, I'll still say the same things. You once said you trust those you employ and don't employ those you don't trust. I thought you, Jiang Wanqing, were so special. Turns out you're just like any other ordinary person! What are you pretending to be so high and mighty for! You took the initiative to come to me for cooperation, and now you want to kick me to the curb after you've used me? No way!"
He was desperate, and his usually refined and gentle image crumbled at this moment, allowing Jiang Yuan to slip away.
Seeing him go crazy, Jiang Wanqing remained silent, only waving to Cheng Ran.
"You stay here and watch over him. I'm going to my office to get something."
"good."
She went out, and Yang Chang also wanted to escape. Cheng Ran threw a pen, and the door was closed.
"You can run away, but you can't hide. You and the Northwest Group dared to sign such a huge order; there will be endless trouble in the future, won't there?"
"You...you all..."
"Us?" Cheng Ran sneered. "I misjudged you. When Wanqing got into trouble, even if I had taken the blame myself, it would have been better than letting you handle everything. You're the kind of person who's never satisfied!"
"What makes you think I'm insatiable!" Yang Chang waved his hand, his eyes red, and staggered. "All of this is what I deserve! Jiang Wanqing only provided the ideas and technology; I did everything else. I've been treated like a slave, and you want me dead just because I had a little selfishness? No way!"
Just as he finished speaking, Jiang Wanqing pushed open the door from the outside and handed Yang Chang a termination letter with ink still wet on it.
She said coldly, "I admit you've done a lot for me, so let's part ways amicably. I won't pursue the Northwest Group matter with you. The orders will be returned to your Beixin production facility. After today, you have nothing to do with the Jiang family anymore. Get out!"
This is a fair reward for her efforts over this period of time, so as to avoid accusations of her bullying others.
Yang Chang took the termination agreement, tore it to shreds, laughed loudly, and pointed at Jiang Wanqing.
"You're really something, crossing the river and then burning the bridge! I won't sign this damn termination agreement! You want me dead? Then we'll go to hell together... Ah!"
Before he could finish speaking, Cheng Ran pinned him to the ground.
"You have to sign, whether you want to or not!"
Jiang Wanqing glanced at the debris on the ground, then coldly turned her gaze to Yang Chang's face.
"You think I only prepared a termination letter? Either we go through the proper legal process and file a lawsuit, which you probably can't withstand the investigation, or... in short, let's part ways amicably. You'd better have some self-respect when I give you a choice, otherwise you've seen my methods. I can lift you to the clouds, or I can make you fall into the mud and never get out. Do you want to try what happened to the Du family?"
She never intended to threaten someone with such vicious language, but Yang Chang had indeed crossed her line. When reasoning failed, she had no choice but to resort to force!
Yang Chang's hand trembled visibly as Cheng Ran shoved a pen into his hand.
"Sign it now! Stop dawdling!"
The other person swallowed hard, picked up a pen, glared fiercely at Jiang Wanqing, and began to write.
"I will repay this humiliation a thousandfold in the future! Jiang Wanqing, you just wait!"
She didn't take him seriously, and his words were not worth her attention.
After he signed the papers, Cheng Ran personally dragged him out and ordered the security guards not to allow him to enter the factory area again.
"Isn't that Director Yang? Why was he thrown out by Director Jiang's wife?"
"I don't know..."
"There must have been a conflict, a dispute over the distribution of benefits?"
"Have you all forgotten how that guy surnamed Yang has been exploiting us lately? And you're still speaking up for him?"
