Chapter 480 The Longer the Time, the Deeper the Love
"Yaoyao, are you okay?" Li Beiting walked up to her worriedly, saw that her face was pale, and held her hand.
In front of the man, Jiang Yao could no longer pretend to be indifferent.
She briefly explained what had just happened, her eyes filled with worry, "I don't know why grandpa is unwilling to tell the truth about what happened back then, but I believe he must have his reasons.
But my uncle and his family didn't get any explanation, and ended up parting ways on bad terms. I'm afraid this will turn into an irreversible situation."
"How could that be?" Li Beiting put his arm around her shoulders and said as they walked out, "Your uncles are all reasonable people. They won't turn against your grandparents over this. After all, they've been family for 20 or 30 years."
Having said that, Jiang Yao was still very worried.
Online public opinion is intensifying, and if no clarification is made, it will have an irreversible impact on the company's reputation.
As if sensing her anxiety, the next second, Li Beiting suddenly took out his cell phone and handed it to her, "Take a look first."
Jiang Yao lowered his head to look, and after a moment he showed a look of shock.
It turned out that Mr. Li actually stood up on behalf of the Li Group and publicly expressed his support for Mr. Jiang, and guaranteed his trust in him based on their decades of friendship.
Afterwards, various people of status and position, including Mr. Qin and Mr. Lu, who had even retired long ago, expressed their support.
Hot searches followed one after another, leaving netizens stunned.
"Oh my god, this Mr. Jiang is so popular! He can actually get so many people to stand up and speak for him!"
"These wealthy chaebols are always very proud! For the sake of their company's reputation, they won't easily take sides. Today is really an eye-opener."
"If only one person spoke up for him, it wouldn't be a big deal. But if more than a dozen high-ranking officials lowered their status and stood up to clarify his case, then I have to doubt whether he was slandered."
"That's right! If you really destroyed someone's family, is it necessary to adopt their children and treat them well, letting them grow up to be successful, just to wait for them to take revenge on you in the future?"
"That's right. How could a truly ruthless person let a tiger go back into the mountains?"
In just a few hours, public opinion reversed again, and Mr. Jiang was finally no longer being smeared one-sidedly. Many people felt that there must be a hidden story behind this.
I want to continue watching!
Jiang Yao's heart was shaken. He looked up at Li Beiting, his eyes twinkling with stars. "It was you who asked Grandpa to help, right?"
Li Beiting chuckled, "It's not all my fault. Our two families are old friends. Now that grandpa is being slandered, how could grandpa just sit back and do nothing?"
Jiang Yao was still very moved.
She knew that if Li Beiting hadn't been instigating this, public opinion wouldn't have reversed so quickly.
He knew that what he cared about most was his family, so he always helped her to the best of his ability.
"Beiting, I..."
"There's no need to say thank you." Li Beiting interrupted her next words with a gentle look in his eyes: "If you really want to express your gratitude, then kiss me."
Jiang Yao hooked her arms around his neck without hesitation and leaned over to kiss him.
The kiss was passionate and devoted.
People's feelings will become cold after being in love for a long time.
But she found that the longer she spent with Li Beiting, the more she loved him, and she even became unable to extricate herself from him.
Li Beiting closed his eyes, gently tapped the back of her head, and responded to her kiss tenderly, as if to soothe all the anxiety in her heart.
…
Online public opinion has been brought under control for the time being, but the Jiang family is still significantly affected.
Jiang Yao then heard from her assistant at the company that her uncles had not been to the company for several days and that her father was currently struggling to control the situation.
But this is not a long-term solution.
Jiang Yao also tried to contact them, but none of the calls went through.
If my grandfather doesn't explain this matter clearly, there will inevitably be a gap in the hearts of my uncles before the investigation is thorough.
Jiang Yao wanted to help but was unable to do so, so he could only take advantage of his free time to go back to Jiang's.
When she knocked on the door of the top-floor office, the person inside said, "Come in."
She pushed the door open and saw Xiao Zhengrong sitting at his desk without even raising his head, concentrating on the official business at hand.
"dad."
Xiao Zhengrong didn't look up until he heard a familiar voice. "Yaoyao, why are you here? Come and sit down."
Jiang Yao walked over obediently and sat down on a chair opposite. "Dad, I've heard that you're the one maintaining most of the business now. My uncle hasn't been back to the company for a week. Can you still hold on?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhengrong sighed helplessly and put down the pen in his hand.
"Yaoyao, don't worry too much about me. After all, I have managed the entire Xiao Group before, so I have experience in this area. Although the task is a bit heavy, it is not something I can't handle."
But at this point, he frowned slightly and asked with concern: "The most important thing right now is the dispute between your uncles and your grandfather. Hasn't the matter been clarified yet?"
Jiang Yao shook his head.
Xiao Zhengrong asked again: "Then do you know what's going on behind this?"
"Dad, actually I don't know either. I only know that grandpa took in my four uncles because they had no other relatives suitable to take over. As for those entanglements, grandpa didn't want to say more." Jiang Yao looked a little depressed.
Xiao Zhengrong couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
After a moment's silence, he suddenly spoke tentatively: "Yaoyao, is it possible that your grandfather can't clarify the matter because he did some things he shouldn't have done in order to achieve his goals, so he can't tell the truth to your uncles..."
"That's impossible!"
Jiang Yao denied it without a second thought, "Dad, are you doubting Grandpa? He's not that kind of person at all!"
Xiao Zhengrong quickly tried to appease him: "I'm just stating a possibility, not trying to convict the old man..."
Jiang Yao calmed down a bit after hearing this. "I know you have this suspicion because you lost your memory and only spent a short time with Grandpa. But please trust my judgment. Grandpa is a good man. He would never do anything that would harm the world."
Seeing her determined look, Xiao Zhengrong stopped making malicious assumptions, "Okay, just treat it as my own petty thoughts! Anyway, you don't have to worry about me from now on. I will take care of the company's affairs!"
Just focus on resolving the issues with your grandpa and uncles. I hope our family can be together happily again during the Chinese New Year!"
Her father's last words gave her great encouragement, "I understand. I will try my best to find out the truth."
It was getting dark when she came out of the company. A cold wind blew past outside the house, as if pouring into her heart, making her heart become cold and heavy.
That night.
The employees and security guards had all left Jiang's, and the building was dark and silent.
Until footsteps were heard, and the elevator was taken all the way to the company's archive room where important secrets were hidden!
