Chapter 460: Neurosis
Zhang Jingxin's sudden departure instantly brought the atmosphere in the conference room to freezing point.
Jiang Tiantong looked at Zhang Jingxin's back with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
Ever since she arrived at the British Empire last night, she had vaguely felt that Zhang Jingxin had some hostility towards her, but she had not expected that the other party's rebuttal to her was almost blind.
If she had a choice, Jiang Tiantong didn't want to use overly radical means to deal with Tang Yun's situation.
Before the meeting today, she had given the plan report to Warren to prevent this from happening, hoping to use Warren's reaction to persuade everyone indirectly. However, this method had little effect, and it could even be said to be far from her plan.
In fact, she proposed this plan and even traveled thousands of miles to come to the British Empire in person, not for any benefit, but because she didn't want to see Tang Yun ruined.
Although she always believed that Tang Shuo was not dead, she had to prepare for the worst.
She had no idea how Tang Shuo had persuaded the Burberry family before, but just because the Burberry family would sacrifice their own interests to help Tang Shuo, she could easily imagine that it must not be a fair and upright method.
However, the news of Tang Shuo's disappearance or even death could not be concealed for long. Once the news reached the Burberry family, Jiang Tiantong had no idea what would happen. The only thing she could do now was to take preventative measures and seize the time to complete Tang Yun's development as quickly as possible.
However, there was no way to explain this problem to others, and even the news could not be leaked out.
She had previously done some research on Zhang Jingxin and Yang Chen, and was also aware of their relationship with Tang Shuo. Logically, even if they had some objections to her plan, they shouldn't have raised them at this time.
What is the problem here? Is there something wrong with Zhang Jingxin herself?
"alright."
Although Jiang Tiantong was a little confused about Zhang Jingxin's behavior, she also knew that now was not the time to worry about it. She quickly sorted out the situation and then asked, "Who has any opinions now?"
It can be said that Jiang Tiantong’s dominance has given everyone a new impression of this seemingly cold boss. Who would dare to go up and seek death at this time?
Yang Chen frowned and looked at Jiang Tiantong, but he was extremely hesitant in his heart.
He and Zhang Jingxin had just clearly expressed their opposition, but Jiang Tiantong did not show any hesitation at all when rejecting Zhang Jingxin's opinion, which made him really worried about the effect his words would have.
To be honest, both Zhang Jingxin and Jiang Tiantong's opinions have their own merits and demerits, and he himself finds it difficult to choose between them.
The only good news now is that Jiang Tiantong did not force Zhang Jingxin to resign, and Zhang Jingxin only reserved his opinion. It seems that there is still room for improvement in this matter.
He was also very curious about why Zhang Jingxin had shown such a strong attitude today. This seemed quite different from his previous attitude.
"Since you have no objection, let's follow the new plan."
Jiang Tiantong said decisively, "The funding issue will be resolved in the next two days. Let's adjourn the meeting!"
While Yang Chen was still daydreaming, the meeting had already come to an end. Seeing Jiang Tiantong about to leave, Yang Chen immediately said, "Mr. Jiang, I want to talk to you."
Jiang Tiantong nodded and said, "Let's go to the office!"
Yang Chen simply packed up his things and followed Jiang Tiantong out of the meeting room.
He planned to help Zhang Jingxin explain temporarily to ease the atmosphere between Jiang Tiantong and Zhang Jingxin, and then find a way to persuade one of them.
Jiang Tiantong may not have the right to fire Zhang Jingxin, but going against the other party will not benefit Zhang Jingxin at all.
…
"Mr. Jiang, Mr. Zhang might have been a little too excited today, but he's definitely doing it for the good of the company." Yang Chen composed his words and said to Jiang Tiantong, "I think we should all talk about it and solve the problem first."
"This plan cannot be changed." Jiang Tiantong replied: "If he realizes his problem, you can ask him to come and talk to me. I will stay here for the time being."
"Well……"
Yang Chen mumbled a few times and sighed, "I understand, Mr. Jiang. I'll be leaving first."
"Well, go ahead." Jiang Tiantong nodded.
As soon as Yang Chen left the office, Li Yihe knocked on the door and walked in.
"Your attitude is a bit unfriendly."
Perhaps because they lived together last night, Li Yihe acted much more casually in front of Jiang Tiantong. As soon as she entered the room, she accused him, "Zhang Jingxin is a veteran of the company. You two should have a good talk."
"You don't understand these things, so don't get involved." Jiang Tiantong immediately cut Li Yihe off and asked, "Did you pass on the information I asked you to reveal?"
What do you mean by not understanding these things and still meddling in them?
Li Yihe was about to refute the other party's first statement, but after hearing the other party's question, he fell silent and replied aloud: "Not yet."
As if he was a little unsure about his answer, Li Yihe continued to ask, "How did my brother know about Tang Shuo's condition?"
After talking with Jiang Tiantong last night, Li Yihe is now very sure that Tang Shuo is not in any danger and is just doing something.
Although anyone would think this reason is too weak, it does not affect Li Yihe's thoughts.
"You actually already know the answer, right?" Jiang Tiantong asked.
“…”
Li Yihe was speechless. She didn't have any suspicions in this regard, but she was just a little worried, even though the probability was less than one in a million.
Tang Shuo had clashed with Li Ruiyi before, and she really didn't want to see it happen again. When it came to choosing between family and love, Li Yihe believed that few people could handle the relationship between the two.
After a moment of silence, Li Yihe said firmly, "I understand."
…
Private historic house.
Tang Shuo was now completely out of danger and could even get out of bed and do some simple activities. Even so, Harvey and the others continued to take turns guarding Tang Shuo.
It wasn't that Tang Shuo had some kind of domineering aura that forced them to submit. It was just that they hadn't seen any black men in a while and didn't dare leave without permission.
After lunch, Tang Shuo leaned against the head of the bed, flipping through a new newspaper, while Harvey and Billy sat at the table, having a heated discussion about a medical paper.
When Tang Shuo saw the report about Knight's tears in the newspaper, the corners of his mouth lifted unconsciously, and he murmured, "It seems that things are going very smoothly."
Snap...
The door of the room was pushed open, and the black man saw Tang Shuo reading a newspaper on the bed and said with a smile, "Are you awake?"
Tang Shuo had never actually seen the black man, but he was very familiar with his voice. He nodded and said, "Thank you for saving me."
"No need to thank me." The black man shook his head.
Harvey and Billy immediately greeted each other happily after seeing each other, saying, "You're finally here. He's awake now. We can go now."
The black man smiled and nodded, squinting his eyes and said, "Of course, but you must keep this secret."
"No problem." Harvey nodded immediately and said, "We won't reveal it to the outside world."
Seeing the black man's gaze, Tang Shuo suddenly jumped up from the bed, rushed to the black man's side in two quick steps, and grabbed the black man's big hand that was about to fall.
Harvey and Billy looked at Tang Shuo in confusion, wondering why the other party would act so violently.
However, all these doubts disappeared after they saw the black dagger in the black man's hand, and cold sweat broke out on their backs.
"Let them go." Tang Shuo took a breath and said.
He was not seriously injured, but his ankle, which was hit by the fire axe, had not healed. However, after seeing the black man's actions, he decided to stand up and stop him.
In fact, he had already guessed who saved him, but he didn't understand the purpose of the black man coming here.
If he had followed the wisest approach, he should have concealed his weakness and waited to understand the black man's intentions before responding. However, after he realized that the other party intended to kill the two doctors who saved him, he could no longer sit idly by.
Tang Shuo never considered himself a saint, so naturally he had no compassion to save people from suffering.
But he could say with absolute certainty that he was a human being, a person of flesh and blood. Perhaps he could show weakness to the enemy after they killed the two doctors, and then wait for an opportunity to kill them and leave.
But if things really develop to that point, Tang Shuo himself will not be able to forgive himself.
The black man looked at Tang Shuo in surprise. When he found that blood was flowing from the other's feet, he grinned, revealing a row of dazzling white teeth.
"Come with me!" The black man then put down his hand, turned around and walked out of the room.
Tang Shuo glanced at Harvey and Billy, nodded at them, and followed the black man out.
The ancient house is very large and was built in the Elizabethan era. The Gertrude Jekyll-style garden in the house focuses on color matching and varied designs, which looks very magnificent.
Even without considering the value of the ancient house itself, just estimating the land price alone, it is enough to surpass most houses in the world.
Tang Shuo had come out before when he just woke up, but he did not give the ancient house a complete tour.
After following the black man around for a while, the two finally arrived at the backyard of the old house.
"Wait a minute." The black man turned around and reminded, then walked straight to the middle of the garden in the backyard.
Tang Shuo could vaguely see a figure in the center of the garden, but he couldn't see clearly what the other person was doing.
Thinking of the other person's identity, Tang Shuo lowered his head and cursed, "Psycho!"
While the weather wasn't as cold as midwinter, it certainly wasn't sunny and warm, and the temperature was as low as ever. Furthermore, Tang Shuo couldn't think of any other explanation for this behavior, other than insanity, as he was standing in the middle of a bare garden.
After a while, the black man came over and said to Tang Shuo, "Follow me."
Tang Shuo nodded and followed the other party towards the center of the garden.
"You're awake." As soon as I reached the center of the garden, a greeting came out.
"Um."
Tang Shuo agreed, then smiled and said, "Thank you."
After seeing the other person's appearance, Tang Shuo still felt a little puzzled. Although he had already guessed the other person's identity, he still felt a little surprised to see him at this time.
Who would have thought that just half a year ago, the other party had been sending people to hunt him down, even putting him in danger several times. What made him even more amused was that there was a one-year agreement between the two of them.
"You must live for a year and then let me kill you." The sun said.
Tang Shuo shrugged and replied, "What if I kill you?"
"I couldn't ask for more." Taiyang replied with a playful look on his face.
Tang Shuo sighed with some regret and said, "But you saved me this time. What if I can't do it a year later?"
