Chapter 51 The Mouse Sees the Cat



Jiang Can was suddenly stunned.

Now, the moment she hears Fang Jinyang's voice, every cell in her body automatically switches to a state of readiness, and her eyes are fixed on him warily.

Fang Jinyang approached and, seeing her like this, couldn't help but smile slightly. His gaze first turned to An'an on the side, "You can go home now. Jiang Can, stay."

An'an had no choice but to leave first, glancing back at her anxiously as she walked.

Everyone knows Fang Jinyang's wicked intentions towards Jiang Can.

Leaving her alone like this, is there some kind of conspiracy going on?

An'an stopped at the company entrance.

During their last business trip together, as per company practice, employees were required to register an emergency contact with the company and their partner, just in case. She remembered that Jiang Can had registered her husband, Gu Mang…

An'an found Gu Mang's number in her phone's contacts, hesitated for a moment, and then sent him a message.

...

In the office, Fang Jinyang smiled maliciously at Jiang Can.

"You truly are worthy of being my junior from junior school." He looked her up and down. "The company has been trying to close the deal with the Bai family in Yangcheng for years, but you managed to get the sales plan through them in one go! Wow, you're really impressive!"

Jiang Can's expression was indifferent. "Did Manager Fang ask me to stay just to talk about this?"

"Of course not." Fang Jinyang cleared his throat. "I have a dinner party tonight, come along!"

Jiang Can gave him a disgusted look.

Fang Jinyang, however, remained nonchalant, grinning and laughing.

He knew Jiang Can hated these kinds of occasions, but he deliberately chose to use them to disgust her.

Since he can't have her, he'll let her be a stepping stone for him, something that can help him.

"Sigh, actually I didn't want to call you either," Fang Jinyang said with a sinister smile. "But what can I do? You're the only beauty in the company. Sometimes, a woman being too beautiful can really be a problem!"

"I'm sorry, I can't go," Jiang Can coldly refused. "My husband is waiting for me at home, I have to..."

"Go back and cook for him?" Fang Jinyang scoffed. "What, did I say your husband can't take care of himself?"

"Fang Jinyang, watch your mouth." Jiang Can glared at him. "Whether my husband can take care of himself or not is none of your business, but if you dare to provoke me again, he will beat you until you can't take care of yourself!"

Fang Jinyang's face darkened, and he said no more.

"Anyway, this dinner was specifically requested by General Manager Sun, and I'm just here to relay a message! If you don't go and offend the client, you won't have a place in the company anymore!"

After saying that, he turned and left. Jiang Can stared at his back with hatred, gritting her teeth.

After all, it involves my job, so even if I'm unwilling, I can only compromise for the time being.

So Jiang Can sent a message to Gu Mang, and then dragged her heavy steps toward Hengxing Hotel.

Upon entering the private room, one sees a handsome man sitting in the main seat, whose appearance rivals that of a top male celebrity.

Jiang Can was slightly taken aback.

I didn't get a good look at the Bai family building that day, but seeing it up close now, it really proves what An An said: he's even more handsome in person than in photos.

Bai Jingyuan was also surprised that Jiang Can would appear here.

When he saw her walking over, he froze, and after a brief moment of astonishment, a chill ran down his spine.

Just before he entered, Sun Teng and Fang Jinyang were already trying to curry favor with him, mysteriously telling him that he would be accompanied by beautiful women tonight.

But what if Master Huo finds out...?

Bai Jingyuan gasped, stood up abruptly, and stared intently at Jiang Can.

"You must be Young Master Bai?" Jiang Can nodded slightly. "My name is Jiang Can, and I work in the sales department."

"Oh, oh." Bai Jingyuan nodded hesitantly.

Sun Teng and Fang Jinyang smiled to themselves.

It seems even heroes can't resist the charms of a beautiful woman. With Jiang Can taking action, Bai Jingyuan will surely be thoroughly subdued!

"Xiao Jiang, what are you standing there for!" Sun Teng winked at her, "Hurry up and pour Young Master Bai some wine!"

Jiang Can walked helplessly to Bai Jingyuan's side, about to pour him some wine, when Bai Jingyuan hurriedly stopped her, saying, "No, no, no! Don't... don't be so polite..."

Several people were taken aback at the same time.

Bai Jingyuan chuckled awkwardly, beads of sweat already forming on his forehead, his hands awkwardly unsure of what to do with them.

Fang Jinyang then looked at Jiang Can: "Why don't you offer Bai Shao a toast?"

Jiang Can had no choice but to pour himself a glass of wine and drink it down as a sign of respect.

Bai Jingyuan's heart sank. How could he dare let his sister-in-law toast him? So he filled his own glass and gulped down three cups in a row.

"Let's not just focus on drinking!" Sun Teng said again. "Hey, Xiao Jiang, go get some food for Young Master Bai!"

But before Jiang Can could even pick up her chopsticks, Bai Jingyuan hurriedly called out, "I can do it myself! I wouldn't dare trouble Miss... Miss Jiang!"

Sun Teng frowned, sensing that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what it was.

Rumor has it that Young Master Bai is a womanizer and has seen many women. Even if he really has his eye on Jiang Can, there's no need for him to be this nervous, right?

But at this moment, he squinted as he observed Bai Jingyuan. Why was this young master, who was like a proud son of heaven, behaving like a mouse seeing a cat in front of Jiang Can?

Sun Teng and Fang Jinyang exchanged a glance, then made an excuse to go out for a smoke and left the private room.

Jiang Can had drunk that glass a bit too quickly. She wasn't a big drinker to begin with, and now that the alcohol was kicking in, she felt dizzy. So she looked apologetically at Bai Jingyuan and said, "Young Master Bai, excuse me for a moment."

"Okay, go ahead."

Jiang Can smiled, her steps unsteady as she walked out.

I wanted to go outside the hotel for some fresh air, but as soon as I turned the corner in the lobby corridor, I heard two people talking in hushed tones.
