Chapter 451 The truth is at hand
"Jiang Yao, do you really have to force me to this point?" The dark emotions in the depths of his eyes, like a cold pond, were simply intimidating.
Even the air became cold and condensed.
Everyone present held their breath unconsciously.
At this time, Li Beiting stepped forward and stood in front of Jiang Yao, looking at him with eyes as cold as ice blades.
The two sides' eyes met, and a strong murderous intent spread in their eyes.
When the atmosphere reached a stalemate, Jiang Yao stepped forward and shook Li Beiting's hand, saying without flinching, "You asked for this. If you hadn't bothered me, we could have lived in peace."
"..." Huo Yishen smiled strangely, "Okay, I understand what you mean."
This time, he did not continue to resist.
In the end, the position of the company's helmsman smoothly fell into Cheng Jianwei's hands.
After the meeting, she led Jiang Yao and the other person into the office.
The moment the door closed, Cheng Jian shrank his neck slightly, as if trembling, and said with a chill, "This Huo Yishen seems like a damp and perverted male ghost! That smile before he left was so weird. Yaoyao, you'd better be careful. I'm afraid he'll do something desperate."
Jiang Yao found it a little funny. "You should worry more about yourself. It's best to find some bodyguards. After all, you stole his power. Be careful that he will retaliate against you behind your back."
"That's true." Cheng Jianwei nodded seriously, planning to find a few bodyguards to protect her 24 hours a day.
"But thank you so much for supporting me today!"
She grasped Jiang Yao's hand, her eyes gleaming with gratitude.
The next second, her hand was pushed away, and Jiang Yao was embraced by Li Beiting. "It's just an equal exchange. Miss Cheng, please don't be so self-indulgent."
His tone sounded a bit disgusted.
Cheng Jianwei's mouth twitched fiercely, "Boss Li, you're not the one who gets jealous of men, but you also get jealous of women?"
"Who knows what you're thinking?" Li Beiting raised an eyebrow and said casually, "After all, some people may appear decent on the surface, but they may eat anything in private. Don't pass on your bad habits to my Yaoyao."
Cheng Jianwei was furious. "Yaoyao, look at him, how can he look down on others like this?"
She complained to Jiang Yao feeling quite aggrieved.
Jiang Yao smiled helplessly, "Alright, alright, just give in to him because he's my man!"
She said "my man" very naturally.
Li Beiting couldn't suppress the upward curve of his lips, and his eyes were filled with a bit of pride like the queen.
Cheng Jianwei's teeth were aching from the sourness.
Why are these two so annoying!
Are all men and women in love like this?
"By the way, how is your mother now?" Jiang Yao then took the initiative to ask with concern.
Mentioning this, Cheng Jianwei's expression brightened visibly. "After the successful operation, she recovered very well. Now she can get out of bed and walk with my support, and her speech has become clear."
Thinking that this was all thanks to the miracle doctor Li Beiting had invited, Cheng Jianwei felt a little awkward again. "Well, thank you too, Mr. Li."
"If you really want to thank me, you might as well give more benefits to Yaoyao. She gave you 6% of the shares, you should at least show some appreciation!" Li Beiting acted like a complete henpecked wife slave.
"You don't have to tell me that."
Cheng Jianwei snorted softly, turned back to his desk, and handed a brand new contract to Jiang Yao, "Yaoyao, I understand that you guys have helped me a lot, and I've gotten a great deal, so I will buy the shares you gave me at twice the market price!
In addition, from today onwards for ten years, I will give you 20% of the profits from all our collaborative projects."
Jiang Yao was a little surprised, "This is too expensive."
"Compared to your kindness in helping me, this is just a monetary reward, which is the least worth mentioning."
No one's efforts are taken for granted.
Just because someone doesn't ask for anything in return doesn't mean she can take it for granted.
Cheng Jianwei understood clearly that only by not losing money could they truly become friends.
Looking at her sincere eyes, Jiang Yao no longer refused.
"By the way, I have something to hand over to you."
Cheng Jianwei seemed to have thought of something, and then he took out a box from the drawer and handed it to her, whispering: "This is...my aunt, Ms. Cheng Peilan, asked me to pass it to you.
She said this is what you wore around your neck when you were a child. At first she thought my uncle bought it, but now she thinks it might have been left to you by your biological parents as a souvenir!
Jiang Yao was stunned when she heard this. She clenched the box in her hand with a complicated expression.
After leaving the company and returning to the car, Jiang Yao opened the box, which contained a golden safety lock.
It looks like it has been hidden for a long time, but it is still well preserved.
She touched the safety lock and shook it, listening to the crisp ringing sound, and her mood inexplicably calmed down.
"What's wrong?" Li Beiting's worried voice rang in his ears, "Is there something wrong with this safety lock?"
"No."
Jiang Yao couldn't tell what he was feeling.
She has no memory of this lock.
Just thinking back to what Cheng Peilan had said about how she had long suspected she wasn't her biological daughter, she felt mixed emotions.
After thinking about it, she decided to tell Li Beiting about it.
Li Beiting's pupils shrank. "You mean, she knew you were switched? But she pretended not to know!"
"I don't know what she really thinks now, but that doesn't matter anymore." Her feelings for Cheng Peilan had long been fading away bit by bit.
Li Beiting hesitated for a moment, then suddenly turned around and looked at her, "Yaoyao, there's actually something I haven't told you. It's the truth about your initial investigation..."
"What?" Jiang Yao's expression froze.
Li Beiting then told Yao Yuanxin the speculation he had heard from her earlier, "Later, I used the snake-shaped birthmark she told me about to investigate the woman who took you away, but I still couldn't find any clues.
I originally planned to go directly to Yao Yuanxin's mother to ask for more details, but I was afraid that you would blame me for taking the initiative without your consent."
He thought that no matter whether to investigate or who to start with, it still required Jiang Yao's consent.
After all, she is the one involved.
Jiang Yao was touched by what he said. "Silly boy, I really blame you! Since she already knew about it but kept it secret until now, it means that this is an important secret to Jiang Ruolan. Let's go to her house and ask her some other day!"
When she was taken away, her family was very secretive about it.
She was also afraid of opening up everyone's wounds and adding to their sadness, so she never asked.
Now that the problems are all exposed, perhaps by following this clue, we can find out the truth of that year.
Who on earth has such malicious intentions towards the Jiang family?
First her parents, and then even her baby was not spared.
Could it be related to the barren mountain laboratory that was investigated earlier?
