After Ji Shuli's interference, Ye Zhiwei was momentarily at a loss for words. Jiang Jianian gave Ye Zhiwei a deep look and then put the book away.
"You actually accepted it? This thing? I don't even know if my little cousin accidentally bought the wrong book and just gave it to you randomly. Why are you looking at this?"
Jiang Jianian glanced at Ye Zhiwei and said casually, "It was a gift from my girlfriend."
Ji Shuli choked for a moment. Although she also had friends who were in relationships and were controlled by their girlfriends, Ji Shuli never imagined that the arrogant and aloof Jiang Jianian could be controlled like this.
Ji Shuli couldn't help but sigh, patting Jiang Jianian on the shoulder. Sure enough, even if you build a good relationship with your brother-in-law, you can't turn the tables and sing songs of power. In the end, it's still your little cousin who has the final say.
Ye Zhiwei glared at Ji Shuli, but seeing that Jiang Jianian still obediently accepted her book and was even going along with her, she immediately became smug and said happily, "I'm just teaching Jiang Jianian about criminal law. What do you know, cousin?"
She also sat down at the table and began to drink milk.
Suddenly remembering something, Jiang Jianian asked, "Do you still have the cream puffs from yesterday? Want some?"
"You didn't finish the cream puffs!" Ye Zhiwei nodded immediately. "Of course we have to eat them!"
Having already drunk corn juice and eaten toast, fried eggs, avocado and bacon sandwiches, etc., I was very full and was preparing to go and prepare for the press conference requested by Ye Qingcheng when I unexpectedly heard that there were cream puffs too.
Before Ji Shuli could react, Jiang Jianian had already taken the cream puffs out of the kitchen.
"Why didn't you mention there were cream puffs? These look pretty good. You actually hid them away and only took them out when your little cousin came. Xiao Jiang, that's not very kind of you." Ji Shuli was incredulous.
Ye Zhiwei smiled at Ji Shuli, waving the strawberry chocolate cream puff in her hand and said with a smile, "Because he's my boyfriend."
Ji Shuli: ? ? ?
Ji Shuli: ...Then I'll leave?
Seeing the two people who were just in a slightly awkward atmosphere suddenly become all lovey-dovey the next second, Ji Shuli felt that she couldn't stand it anymore after being forced to eat dog food in this way.
He finally understood how couples could provoke people so much that he absolutely could not participate in their conversations anymore. This Xiao Jiang looked aloof, but he was a real dog. He had been a tool throughout the whole thing, and after using him, he was kicked out without any mercy. He couldn't even find anything to say about him.
Ji Shuli coughed loudly to signal the two of them to stop, and after coughing, he reminded Jiang Jianian again, "Xiao Jiang, I'm going to arrange the press conference. Don't forget that you have to attend the press conference with your uncle today."
Jiang Jianian nodded.
Ye Zhiwei became nervous after being reminded by Ji Shuli.
Seeing that Ji Shuli had left, Jiang Jianian also got up to change his clothes. However, he paused before leaving. Ye Zhiwei thought that Jiang Jianian would let her eat slowly, but she did not expect that he would come over and whisper in her ear before leaving: "I have accepted the book and I will read it carefully. Don't forget the reward I want. If you don't give it to me, I will have to get it in my own way. And I will charge a little interest."
Ye Zhiwei: Reward? What reward? When did she agree to that? She never agreed to his proposal.
She didn't even have a chance to refute him before Jiang Jianian left.
It seems like she subdued Jiang Jianian, but it was all a trap set by Jiang Jianian. So, he put all his efforts into her?
Ye Zhiwei couldn't help but complain in her heart, but since Ye Qingcheng's press conference was coming up, she naturally didn't bother him.
As soon as the news of Ye Qingcheng's upcoming press conference spread, reporters from various news media outlets began trying to find ways to gain access to the venue and question Ye Qingcheng.
Even Yu Jingchen, who hadn't completely given up, had a bad feeling, especially given Ye Qingcheng's high-profile attitude. He immediately contacted someone, guessing that his cooperative news media might be exposed. So, Yu Jingchen specifically paid money to cooperate with a small media outlet.
The young reporter was a recent graduate and a newcomer to the workforce. She was good-looking and had a respectable appearance. People with that kind of appearance wouldn't usually arouse suspicion. This was the person Yu Jingchen personally selected.
Before the young reporter went to conduct the interview, Yu Jingchen specially invited someone to sit in his office.
This reporter has a clean background and has always been a very dedicated journalist. She agreed to this job because she was short of money. Her younger sister had always wanted to be an actress and finally got into the Performance Department of Yenching University. Although it's not a specialized performance school, her sister taught herself everything without ever having a teacher, which shows she's really talented. She had scraped together the tuition fees for the previous academic years.
This time, a teacher from Yenching University is having an exchange program abroad. The performing arts department teachers gave the top ten students in the college a chance to sign up and go abroad together. The teachers will cover some of the accommodation and food expenses. However, after deducting the money provided by the teachers, there is still a lot of money left. My sister didn't want to give up this opportunity and signed up.
They worked during the summer vacation, but the money they earned was far from enough. The young reporter saw the younger sister come home at night and hide under the covers, crying quietly. The two sisters shared a room with each other in bunk beds. Perhaps afraid that her older sister would see, they cried very quietly.
The junior reporter always worked on orthodox news, pursuing truthfulness and covering a lot of content related to people's livelihoods. As a result, he never earned much money, and sometimes the special nature of his news even displeased his superiors, preventing him from getting promoted.
She didn't have much money. She spent most of it on installment payments for food and her camera, and even took out a loan. When she was desperate, the editor-in-chief pointed out a way for the young reporter, and she ended up with Yu Jingchen.
Seeing the young reporter's nervous expression, Yu Jingchen smiled and said, "Ms. Chen, you don't need to be so nervous. I really don't want you to do anything illegal or disorderly. I know you have the opportunity to interview Ye Qingcheng at today's press conference. I just want to ask you to ask a question in a factual manner."
"What's the problem?"
"Ye Qingcheng has stepped down from his management position at the Ye Group and is now grooming a successor. This successor is very young, still a college student. Of course, ability and age are not necessarily related, but I'm really puzzled how such a large company as the Ye Group could be so careless. It's one thing to choose someone young, but to make matters worse, he's the son of a murderer." Yu Jingchen smiled, his eyes narrowed. "When the time comes, you only need to ask him one simple question: 'Why did Ye Qingcheng choose the son of a murderer to take over the company?' These are all facts. If you have any doubts, you can search for the name Jiang Yanqiang on the document website. There you'll find the verdict in his father's case. I heard he's already been executed."
The reporter seemed quite surprised. She was still wondering if Ye Qingcheng was really sick when Yu Jingchen called her over and told her such shocking news.
After her initial shock, she asked Yu Jingchen with some confusion, "But even if he's the son of a murderer, if Ye Qingcheng chose him, he must be exceptionally capable and have a strong character. As long as those qualities are met, then even if his father committed heinous crimes, it has nothing to do with the son. Our journalism always emphasizes truthfulness, accuracy, and objectivity. This question itself is ambiguous, which is very unfair—"
“Ms. Chen.” Yu Jingchen interrupted the reporter in front of him, narrowing his eyes and sneering, “I’m paying you to do things for me, not to ask me these stupid questions.”
Without giving the young reporter a chance to explain, Yu Jingchen had already issued a dismissal order with a blank expression, "Alright, I don't need you to do anything for me anymore. Your editor-in-chief has already arranged someone else for me. You can leave now."
