After Xue Mei learned about this relationship, she became even more enthusiastic towards Aunt Wu. Even though she didn't eat meat herself, she would still try to make Aunt Wu happy with small gifts.
Aunt Wu has been a bit worried lately because her daughter-in-law is about to give birth and needs a lot of money.
Her son suddenly told her that he had recently gambled away a lot of money and asked her to send money back home as soon as possible.
Her salary was also limited; she had sent all her previous earnings back to them, and she didn't have much money left.
Xue Mei then suggested that she take all the valuables in the Yang family and sell them, since Yang Ziqiang wouldn't know anyway.
......
Yu Qi had only been recuperating for two weeks when his workplace summoned him back.
In August of last year, the Asian Games Village Office was officially established and began preparations for the Asian Games Village project.
By September of this year, after the Asian Games conclude, the entire Asian Games Village will undergo comprehensive construction, forming a large Asian Games Village community.
The office has confirmed the size of the Asian Games Village and the overall design drawings.
With the design drawings in hand, the office began to recruit construction contractors.
Because this project is large in scale and has a long duration, the requirements for the construction contractor are very strict.
Moreover, the office did not solicit bids for the project, but rather decided to recruit several contractors and have them follow its instructions.
In other words, the selected units become the objects of the office's allocation, and all the unit's resources must first meet the needs of the Asian Games Village, while other projects must give way to the Asian Games Village.
Despite the stringent conditions, the bidding was fiercely competitive.
Once selected, you'll have an advertising slot at the nation's largest sporting event.
No company wouldn't be tempted by such a lucrative opportunity that brings both fame and fortune.
Large construction companies from all over the country gathered in the capital to participate in this grand event.
As a representative, Jiang Wei personally participated in the field visits and development planning seminars organized by the office.
She has high hopes for the Asian Games Village project, not only to gain fame and fortune from it, but also to contribute to the strength of her country.
After several years of development, Fuqiang Group has gathered a large number of top domestic architects, as well as many returned overseas students and even designers from abroad.
She sets very high standards for anyone with talent.
The group's projects are located in major cities across the country, and Fuqiang Group has already gained a great reputation nationwide.
She was determined to win the Asian Games Village project.
On that day, she attended a board meeting at the group, and Wu Hao, as the legal director, also participated in the meeting.
After the meeting, Wu Hao did not leave immediately, but went to the chairman's office.
"President Jiang, there's something I feel I must report to you."
Wu Hao stood in front of his desk, staring intently at Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning sat in the boss's chair, leaned back, and crossed her arms. "Go on," she said.
Wu Hao is currently the group's legal director and is also responsible for the legal affairs of Xinchen Trading. It can be said that he knows the situation of several companies very well.
She trusted him completely.
Looking at the stunningly beautiful woman who was over thirty but whose face showed no signs of aging, Wu Hao felt a ticklish sensation in his heart, as if tickled by a feather.
“Mr. Jiang, I’ve never mentioned my parents to you, have I?” he suddenly asked.
Jiang Ning raised an eyebrow. "Aren't you and Wu Jing related? I think I heard them mention that your parents are in business."
Wu Hao nodded, "They were doing business in Hong Kong, but recently they've been taken into custody."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning leaned forward, becoming somewhat restless.
"What's going on? Tell me in detail. Are they in danger?"
Wu Hao's eyes immediately dimmed, and he recounted how he had obeyed the King of Hell.
It turns out that he went to university in Hong Kong with his parents.
During a business deal, the father's business fell into dire straits, leaving him heavily in debt and facing pursuit by a criminal gang.
It was the King of Hell who saved his father and got their business back on track.
At that time, his father let him intern at the King of Hell's company and promised to help him with some work of selling stolen goods.
As the business ties between Yama and his father grew closer, Wu Hao became almost completely subservient to him.
Later, Wu Hao returned to the capital and joined a law firm. His eventual success in gaining Jiang Ning's trust was the result of his meticulous planning.
You could say he was an undercover agent sent by the King of Hell.
"It's funny, I've never seen the King of Hell, only his back once. He was tall and broad-shouldered, and he really did look like a demon from hell."
At this point, Wu Hao fell silent, like a prisoner awaiting trial.
Jiang Ning stood up, walked over to him, crossed her arms, leaned against the desk, and looked indifferent.
"So, by telling me all this, you're revealing your identity in hopes that I'll rescue your parents?"
At this moment, Jiang Ning was only a little over a foot away from him, and he could clearly see the fine downy hairs on her face.
She was truly naturally beautiful. She wore almost no makeup, but her eyebrows were thick, her almond-shaped eyes were like stars, and beneath her delicate nose were cherry lips that always had a hint of honey.
His breathing quickened slightly.
"No, I didn't intend for you to risk your life to save my parents. I just don't want to become a puppet of the King of Hell."
He wanted me to botch the Asian Games Village project so that R&F Group could successfully replace Fuqiang Group and become one of the top ten construction companies in the country.
I don't want to do this!
Jiang Ning smiled faintly, "You know I've always trusted you. I never imagined that someone else would occupy such an important position, only to be a pawn in their game. How have you dealt with the King of Hell all these years? Why are you suddenly turning against me today?"
