Beixin Machinery Factory
Yang Chang sat in a chair behind his desk, dressed in a suit and tie, smoking a cigarette. Guo Xueyun, wearing a red and black shirt and dress, sat on the sofa, admiring the bracelet she had just bought.
"It's just a bracelet. Once the new product launches, you can have a big villa if you want!"
He looked Guo Xueyun up and down with an undisguised gaze, which finally settled on her chest. Only now did he realize that he had been too aloof before. There was such a seductive place in the world!
"Speaking such big words will only count when everything settles down. How many days are left until the interview?" Guo Xueyun raised her eyes, her gaze devoid of any emotion, only filled with desire for money and profit.
"It's the day after tomorrow. I haven't seen any movement from Jiang Wanqing yet. I guess she doesn't even know about our new product, which she's painstakingly preparing to contribute to her own factory, hahaha..."
He laughed loudly and took a deep drag on his cigarette. He used to scoff at the actions of the eldest son of the Du family, but now he had become another Du Heng.
"Knock knock knock..."
The loud knocking disturbed Yang Chang and Guo Xueyun's sweet dreams, and they looked impatiently at the door.
"Who is it? They have no sense of propriety."
"Enter!"
Zhang Jin rushed in, panting, his face filled with joy and excitement.
"Director Yang, great news! Fantastic news..."
"What good news? Tell me!"
Lately, everything has been good news, and Yang Chang has become numb to it. If something can't touch his heart, it's not good news. So at first, he was very calm, and even a little unhappy that someone would come and make a fuss about something so trivial.
"Something's happened at Jiang's Machinery Factory!"
"What?"
Yang Chang's eyes widened upon hearing this, and Guo Xueyun immediately stood up as well.
"What happened? What went wrong at Jiang's Machinery Factory?"
"News reports say that their production line had a problem, several employees were injured, and production has now been completely halted. It's estimated that things will be chaotic for quite some time."
After Zhang Jin finished speaking, Yang Chang laughed and clapped his hands, but Guo Xueyun remained serious and glared at him.
"Don't be too happy yet. Jiang Wanqing is cunning and resourceful. She's overly cautious, so how could she allow such a sudden accident to happen? Don't you use your brain? You just sent her the invitation, and she had an accident right after. What if she wanted to lower our guard so she could have a backup plan?"
Having fought Jiang Wanqing many times, Guo Xueyun has accumulated considerable experience.
After she finished speaking, Yang Chang frowned, his smile freezing.
"Then what do you suggest we do? Send someone to investigate?"
"Do we still need to send anyone? We have divine help."
She smiled and pointed to the top of her head. Yang Chang immediately understood, and the two exchanged a glance. He cleared his throat and told Zhang Jin to leave.
"Go out and continue to gather information."
"Yes, Director Yang."
Zhang Jin was quite perceptive; after he left, he closed the door. As soon as he left, Yang Chang and Guo Xueyun started discussing things.
"How about... we go take a look?"
"Hmph, let's go."
Guo Xueyun snorted condescendingly, raised her hand and waved it, just like the first time, and Yang Chang was once again led into a state of chaos by her.
The high-tech screen, which he couldn't describe, was displaying the current situation of the Jiang family.
The factory was in complete chaos. The workers had gone on strike and were making a scene in front of Jiang Wanqing's office, with Xiaoying standing outside to block them.
"Bring Jiang Wanqing out! She has to give us an explanation for this safety accident!"
"Yes! Pay compensation! Stop construction!"
"They said the factory would achieve great things under her leadership, but now it seems like it was all bullshit. Are they trying to take advantage of us uneducated people?"
"come out!"
"come out……"
Everyone was making a huge fuss, and Xiaoying tried to stop them while explaining.
"Please calm down, everyone. Director Jiang is already developing an emergency plan and will definitely give you an explanation."
"Hahaha……"
Upon seeing the scene on the screen, Yang Chang couldn't stop laughing, and Guo Xueyun also smiled and crossed her arms.
"It seems something really happened to Jiang Wanqing. This is truly a stroke of luck!"
"Hmph, she's finally got what she deserves. It seems even the heavens are on our side!"
Yang Chang had already envisioned the day he would become the dominant force in the Southwest business world, and his laughter grew louder. As for what specific countermeasures Jiang Wanqing was devising, he no longer wanted to know.
After the two left this chaotic place, Yang Chang's mood was visibly better.
"What goes around comes around, this time we're definitely going to win!"
"We must not let our guard down until the very last moment. Let's hurry up and prepare for the interview."
"I know, you don't need to tell me that!" Yang Chang waved his hand.
Jiang's Machinery Factory, Jiang Wanqing's Office —
Xiaoying had already persuaded the workers outside to disperse. As she pushed open the door to the office and opened her mouth, Jiang Wanqing made a shushing gesture towards her.
"Director Jiang, this..."
"You did a good job."
"Is there a mole in our factory? Why are you using this method..."
Jiang Wanqing waved her hand: "I can't say now, you'll know later. Go ahead."
"OK."
Xiaoying, filled with doubt, completed Jiang Wanqing's task and returned to her post. She called over the people who had organized the disturbance, settled a sum of money, and said nothing more.
That day, Jiang Wanqing returned home. Jiang Jianguo and Xue He, who had already seen the news, immediately inquired about her safety, and she said she was fine.
Then came Cheng Ran rushing home, and her daughter Nannan's worried inquiries.
"Mom, the news says you've had another accident..."
"Mom's okay. Have you finished the homework your teacher assigned? Go back and do your homework. Mom will explain it to you later, okay?"
Children are always sensitive, and Jiang Wanqing was genuinely worried about her. She gently comforted her daughter and finally persuaded her to go back to her room. Then she only faced Cheng Ran.
"What exactly is going on? The news reports..."
She looked into his eyes and shook her head slightly, a very small movement. If he didn't know her well enough, he probably would have pressed her for details before he felt at ease.
"It was just an accident, I can handle it, don't worry. I have to attend an interview with Beixin Machinery Factory in a couple of days, I won't let myself fall down."
She deliberately raised her voice to say these words to encourage herself. Cheng Ran frowned and hugged her.
"It's good that you're alright."
He sensed that she was hiding something, and since she wasn't saying anything, she must have her reasons. He simply patted her on the back.
"Don't keep me waiting too long, or I won't be able to resist digging into the truth myself."
She hugged him back: "It won't be long, it's time to wrap this up, and... I also want to know the truth!"
Is the truth he tells the same as the truth she tells? A hint of doubt flashed in Cheng Ran's eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.
"Just let me know if there's anything I can do for you."
She gently pushed him away, a slight smile playing on her lips: "Haven't we ever had a fight or a cold war yet?"
"Huh?" Cheng Ran asked instinctively in surprise.
