Chapter 414: Repaying the 18 Years of Raising
"I won't help you anymore."
Cheng Peilan's answer was beyond Xu Yueyao's expectations.
"I owe you this for taking the bullet for you. From now on, I won't help you with anything you want to do. But I hope you'll think twice before you act. You finally escaped prison, so don't make mistakes that you'll regret."
The mention of imprisonment completely infuriated Xu Yueyao, "Why?! You've been able to support Jiang Yao for eighteen years, providing her with good food and drink, and giving her so many benefits, yet you're only willing to compensate me for these few years. You're being biased, this isn't fair!"
Cheng Peilan wanted to say that what she gave to Xu Yueyao was hundreds of times more than what she gave to Jiang Yao.
Moreover, when Jiang Yao left the Xu family, he took nothing with him.
But she finally stopped explaining because she knew that no matter how much she explained, Xu Yueyao would not accept it.
"I'm tired and want to rest."
She said and closed her eyes.
Xu Yueyao was filled with hatred, so much so that her internal organs ached.
But in the end, she suppressed her anger, turned around and left the ward.
Anyway, Cheng Peilan was just a tool and had no ability.
She still has one last supporter.
She went straight home, and when she went upstairs, she saw her father Xu Cong'an sitting in the study, looking worried and sad, and she didn't know what he was thinking about.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?" She hurried in and asked with concern.
Xu Cong'an came back to his senses, "Yaoyao, you're back. Is your mother okay?"
"She is no longer seriously injured. But you, why do you look so bad? Did something happen in the company?" Xu Yueyao asked tentatively.
Xu Cong'an smiled bitterly. "There were some problems with the company's project. We're short of funds now. I tried to ask your uncle for help, but he refused to help. It's obvious that he wants to see my Xu family fail!"
Originally, he wanted to ask Cheng Peilan to help plead for mercy, but she happened to encounter a robbery and was injured at this time. If he asked her to go now, he might be blamed by the Huo family.
That's why he is so distressed.
"Dad, don't worry. Can you tell me the details? Maybe I can find a way!" She comforted him calmly.
Thinking that Xu Yueyao is now a well-known female entrepreneur and has opened a small company under her name, Xu Cong'an has more trust in her and briefly explained the situation.
When she heard the last part, a cunning gleam flashed in her eyes.
"Dad, this problem is actually very easy to solve." She raised a confident smile on her face and whispered a few words into his ear.
Xu Cong'an was a little surprised after hearing this, "Is this really possible?"
"You can try the method I taught you..." Xu Yueyao gave him some advice.
Xu Cong'an listened to her advice carefully.
…
The next day, Xu Cong'an calmed down and went to Jiang Group to ask for a meeting with Jiang Yao.
But the assistant told him: "Sorry, Miss Jiang is not in the company. If you want to see her, you need to make an appointment in advance."
On weekdays, Jiang Yao focuses more on the laboratory. The company is supervised by her uncle and others, so she doesn't need to worry too much.
"Just tell her that I am her adoptive father and ask her to come and receive me in person. I have something important to discuss with her." Xu Cong'an's attitude was still very proud.
The assistant hesitated for a moment, and finally called Jiang Yao.
After hanging up the phone, she put on a polite smile and said, "Mr. Xu, Miss Jiang said she would come in half an hour. Let me take you to the reception room to wait."
Xu Cong'an was very satisfied with the result.
Just as Xu Yueyao said, Jiang Yao is still soft-hearted and nostalgic.
In this case, you can make good use of it.
When he arrived at the reception room, the assistant made him some top-quality coffee and was very polite from beginning to end.
Her attitude also represents Jiang Yao's attitude.
Xu Cong'an benefited greatly from this.
After waiting for less than twenty minutes, Jiang Yao arrived at the reception room.
Pushing the door open, she looked at the man sitting on the sofa drinking coffee leisurely. Her eyes flickered and she winked at her assistant, indicating that she could go out first.
After the assistant left and closed the door, Xu Cong'an put down his coffee and said sarcastically, "Miss Jiang is really so pompous now. It's really not easy to see you!"
Jiang Yao sat down across from him with an expressionless face. "Just be frank. You must be looking for me for more than just catching up on the past, right?"
Xu Cong'an was a little unhappy with her attitude, but thinking about the ultimate goal, he endured it and said, "I came to you to discuss a business deal with you."
"Business?" Jiang Yao raised an eyebrow. "Why do you think I would negotiate with you?"
Xu Cong'an said confidently, "Just because I'm your adoptive father, and just because the Xu family raised you for eighteen years! All the money spent on your food, clothing, education, and so on, is worth at least hundreds of millions. Otherwise, would you be so successful today and have achieved so many research results?"
Jiang Yao found it funny.
But he didn't refute it, and then asked: "So?"
"So now it's your turn to repay me. My company is facing some funding problems and is in urgent need of financing."
Xu Cong'an got straight to the point and stated his intention. "I want to discuss a cooperation with you. As long as you help me through this difficult time, I will no longer use the favor of raising me as an excuse. You and the Xu family will be clear of all grievances and write off everything. How about that?"
Jiang Yao looked at him steadily after hearing this.
After so many years, she didn't expect the Xu family to use this trick to morally blackmail her.
However, if the eighteen years of upbringing could be repaid with money, that would naturally be the best.
"As long as I pay this money, will your Xu family promise not to bother me?" She confirmed to the other party again.
"That's right!" Xu Cong'an nodded seriously. "You are the daughter of the richest man now, after all. It's not too much to ask for your help just this once!"
After a while, Jiang Yao finally spoke, "Bring out the contract so I can see it."
Xu Cong'an was delighted and immediately took out the document and handed it to her for inspection.
Upon opening it, I saw that Xu was recently doing building materials business and had already invested in several engineering projects.
Xu Cong'an's current request is for Jiang Yao to sign a supply chain financing agreement to help them through their difficult times, and he promised to give her a high return.
There seemed to be no problem with the contract, but Jiang Yao still thought about it for a long time. "Give me three days to think it over, and I'll give you an answer."
"One day at most!" Xu Cong'an bargained with her, "Jiang Yao, I hope you will not let me down for Peilan's sake."
After saying that, he turned and left the reception room.
Not long after, the door was opened again, and this time it was Li Beiting who walked in.
"How about it?"
Jiang Yao didn't say much and handed the document to him directly.
Li Beiting opened it and read it, frowning slightly. "He's definitely trying to trick you. I'm afraid this money will be wasted and will probably be swallowed up by them."
