Chapter 297: Sealing the Heart and Locking Love
"How, how could that be!" Jiang Haozhe felt guilty and hurriedly explained, "Actually, this is a project assigned to your fourth uncle, but he's been very depressed recently. It might be because of relationship problems. I was worried that he might fall through if the situation got bad, so I specifically asked you to check it out!"
Jiang Yao was startled when he heard this. As expected, his attention was diverted by his fourth uncle's condition. He couldn't help but ask worriedly, "Is he in a very bad condition?"
"Yeah, ever since..." Jiang Haozhe paused for two seconds, "Anyway, I haven't seen him so depressed in a long time. I'd like to ask you to keep an eye on him and cheer him up."
"Okay." When it comes to the physical and mental condition of his relatives, Jiang Yao takes the lead.
After his uncle left, Jiang Yao called Shu Ya.
The call was connected shortly after it rang.
"Yaya, how have you been recently? Has your stepfather given you any trouble?" she asked with concern.
"He does want to make things difficult for me, but I have more people on my side in the company. I've been fighting openly and covertly with his nephew for a few rounds now, and I have the upper hand for now, but we can't be careless. I'm still looking for their weaknesses."
Shu Ya's attitude has become much more mature than before, and she is no longer as unbridled and ostentatious as before.
"Yaoyao, I'm planning to quit the entertainment industry. The company is too busy, and I can't take care of both. It's a pity that the movie with your second uncle didn't get broadcast, and I didn't leave a classic masterpiece in the film and television industry to fulfill my dream of becoming an actor."
After all, this is a dream I have been pursuing for more than 20 years. It would be a lie to say that I don’t have regrets.
Jiang Yao felt a little distressed, "Yaya, don't be discouraged, there will be opportunities in the future. If you are too busy, why don't I help you..."
"Not for now. I know you still have a lot of research to do! If I really can't handle it, I will ask you for help." Shu Ya couldn't rely on her all the time.
Jiang Yao didn't force it, but cautiously asked about another matter, "What about your relationship? Have you made a choice between you and my two uncles?"
Shu Ya was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then she said softly, "I won't choose either of them. I just want to completely break away from the past and arrange a marriage according to my mother's advice. As for both of them, I have already severed ties with them."
Jiang Yao's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.
She is planning to seal her heart and lock away her love!
My best friend seemed to have grown up overnight.
But is it really a good thing to make such a choice and suppress one's true feelings?
"You are so free and easy, but my fourth uncle is living a life of drunkenness and dreams every day..." Jiang Yao deliberately exaggerated a bit.
Shu Ya's tone changed when she heard this. "What's wrong with him? Doesn't he hate being bound by marriage? Doesn't he just want to have fun? What does he mean now? Who is he showing off to?"
She complained dissatisfiedly, but at the end, her voice lowered, "Is he okay now?"
After all, I have known her for so many years.
Jiang Yao could hear the worry in her voice through the changes.
It seems that Shuya still cares about her fourth uncle very much.
In this case, she can't just sit there and wait for death.
"Whether it's good or not, you can find out by asking yourself. As your niece, I can't ask too many questions. Let's leave it at that for today! I have other things to do."
After saying that, she hung up the phone without waiting for Shu Ya to ask any more questions.
The words Shu Ya wanted to ask were stuck in her throat. Her heart felt like it was being tickled by a kitten and she couldn't calm down.
Jiang Yao looked at the phone screen with a cunning glint in his eyes.
The next afternoon, she made a professional plan and went to the business event with Jiang Jinghe.
Fourth Uncle was in much better condition than she had imagined. Although there were some bruises under his eyes, he looked pretty good. He looked very elite in his suit and tie.
While waiting for the partner to arrive, Jiang Yao took the initiative to ask, "Fourth Uncle, have you contacted Yaya recently? I don't know how she's doing over there."
Jiang Jinghe's eyes dimmed slightly. "She doesn't want to see me. How can I know her situation?"
Jiang Yao had to give him a few words of advice, "Fourth Uncle, you can't give in when it comes to love. Yaya is facing a difficult situation right now. She's surrounded by wolves and faces many dangers. You know her character well.
If you stop yourself because of one or two rejections, you will definitely regret it in the future!"
Jiang Jinghe's heart trembled, as if he had been enlightened, and his eyes brightened a little, "Yaoyao, what do you think I should do?"
He humbly asked for advice, and Jiang Yao was naturally happy to give him some advice.
"To pursue someone, you need to be thick-skinned. All you have to do is keep getting closer to her and make your feelings known to her. If she has even the slightest affection for you, she will definitely relent."
Just like Li Beiting's feelings for her, it is because of his persistence that her feelings for him grow deeper and deeper.
Besides, in her opinion, Shu Ya should have a good impression of her fourth uncle.
Jiang Jinghe seemed touched by her words, "I understand what to do."
In any case, the final result can only be determined after trying.
Jiang Yao nodded with relief. The two of them agreed that as long as he went after her, Jiang Yao could help with assists.
After everything was discussed, the partners also came to the reception room.
The other party was a big boss in his forties or fifties. When he saw Jiang Yao, he only thought she was a secretary.
He didn't take her seriously, just shook hands with Jiang Jinghe and planned to start discussing cooperation with him.
The next second, he found out that it was the young girl opposite him who was talking to him. He was immediately surprised and disdainful, "You want to talk to me?"
Jiang Yao wasn't angry about this, but replied calmly, "Yes, Mr. Yin. I'm responsible for the design of the plan for this joint development project..."
Mr. Yin on the opposite side didn't take it seriously at first, but he became more and more shocked the more he listened. After she finished speaking, he completely abandoned his previous contempt and was completely convinced.
"Young people are truly formidable. Miss Jiang is so young yet so quick-witted. I'm very pleased that she came up with such a plan."
In the end, the two parties successfully reached a verbal agreement.
"I'll ask my secretary to bring the contract over right away."
Mr. Yin sent a message.
Not long after, a petite and pretty girl walked in from outside with a contract in her arms.
The moment they saw her appearance clearly, Jiang Yao and Jiang Jinghe were both stunned.
The secretary in front of her was none other than Ji Wanqing, whom she met when she was abroad.
She disappeared after she designed to "dizzy" herself.
Later, Li Beiting also sent people to investigate, but they couldn't find this person in the big foreign company at all. It was as if she appeared out of thin air. They even suspected that her name was fake.
The clue is temporarily broken.
Jiang Yao never thought that he would see her in the country.
