Chapter 102: Money Worship and the Wheelchair Boss 18
Jiang Tingxu carried the sleepy Cha Jiu back to the room.
A servant who passed by saw him, bowed his head and greeted him silently, not daring to make a sound to wake the person in the master's arms.
There was no strange expression on his face.
Almost everyone in Jiang's residence knew about the relationship between Cha Jiu and Jiang Tingxu.
Except Jiang Chen.
Cha Jiu opened his eyes dazedly and found the surroundings a little strange. He muttered, "Where is this?"
"This is my room." Jiang Tingxu kissed her long eyelashes and said in a low and doting voice: "Sleep peacefully."
The familiar scent of cedar came, and Cha Jiu closed his eyes again.
Before she fell into a deep sleep, she seemed to hear Jiang Tingxu say something.
"The Ye family will come over tomorrow to discuss Jiang Chen's engagement."
Is that so?
That's really what I'm looking forward to.
Cha Jiu curled the corners of her lips slightly and fell asleep in An Xin's embrace.
…
The next day.
The Ye family's car drove slowly into the gate of the Jiang residence.
Even though they drove the most luxurious car in the family, it still looked a bit shabby in this manor-style private residence that was as luxurious as a castle.
Ye Nian'en looked around at the surrounding buildings and magnificent gardens, feeling both emotional and happy.
It turns out that the gap between the rich can be so big.
But it doesn’t matter, when Jiang Chen comes to power, these things will all be hers.
The smile on Ye Nian'en's face became even happier, and she positioned herself as the future hostess.
Uncle Chen greeted the Ye family with a professional smile.
"Mr. and Miss Ye are waiting for you in the living room."
Father Ye didn't know Uncle Chen's identity in the Jiang residence and thought he was just an ordinary servant.
So he walked past without even looking back, without even reacting.
On the contrary, Ye Nian'en heard from Jiang Chen that Uncle Chen was an elder of the Jiang family and was highly regarded by Jiang Tingxu.
But no matter how much he is valued, he is just a servant.
"You must be Uncle Chen." Ye Nian'en smiled and said, "There will be many opportunities to meet each other in the future. Thank you for your care."
Having said that, she handed over the coat in her hand.
On the one hand, she said nice words to curry favor with him, and on the other hand, she asked Uncle Chen to hang up his coat to remind him of his identity.
Uncle Chen has been in Jiang's house for so many years, and he has seen all kinds of monsters.
He smiled, did not take the coat, walked directly in front of the Ye family, and led the way to the living room.
Ye Nian'en's expression froze slightly.
Jiang Chen walked past her and asked concernedly, "What's wrong?"
Ye Nian En forced himself to smile: "Uncle Chen... doesn't seem to like me very much."
"How could that be?" Jiang Chen frowned, "Uncle Chen is a very nice person, he and Ye Qinghuan get along very well, and you shouldn't think too much."
Ye Nian'en was choked.
She didn't realize that she was giving herself a reverse eye drop.
Ye Nian'en followed Jiang Chen into the living room.
Jiang Tingxu sat in the main seat. Ye's father was slightly bent over, chatting with him in a low voice with an apologetic smile.
Although he was sitting in a wheelchair and his eyes were very gentle, the pressure of a superior was lingering around him, and even Ye's father, who was standing, looked very small.
He was like a calm and fearless chess player. Everyone present was an insignificant chess piece, allowing him to decide life and death, honor and disgrace.
Apart from……
Everyone was being careful with their words and actions, except for Cha Jiu, who was sitting next to Jiang Tingxu with a carefree attitude, crossing her legs, holding a plate of strawberries and eating them leisurely.
Very comfortable.
Ye Nian'en deliberately put her hand into Jiang Chen's arm in front of her.
Cha Jiu ignored it completely. She picked up a strawberry and ate it, a drop of juice flowing down her fingers.
Jiang Tingxu saw it in the peripheral vision, and naturally took out his handkerchief, took it and wiped her fingers one by one.
Cha Jiu also accepted his "service" generously.
The ambiguous interaction between the two was undisguised, as if no one was around.
Jiang Chen looked at them in shock.
The Ye family was also stunned.
The Jiang family was silent.
Uncle Chen and Mingcheng stood by calmly.
Today it was finally their turn to calmly appreciate other people's jaw-dropping expressions.
It took Jiang Chen a long time to come back to his senses: "Mr. Jiang, Ye Qinghuan..."
"It is very impolite to address an elder by his first name." Jiang Tingxu warned calmly, "Miss Ye will be my wife in the future. Jiang Chen, your adoptive mother, you should treat her in a more polite manner."
"Adoptive...mother" Jiang Chen almost squeezed out these two words from between his teeth.
The most shocked was Ye Nian'en.
Her hands were shaking slightly.
How could this happen?
When did Cha Jiu hook up with Jiang Tingxu?
She used all means to get an engagement with Jiang Chen, but in the blink of an eye, the person she hated the most turned out to be her... future mother-in-law.
No, can this world be any more absurd?
As for Ye's father, his mood was very complicated.
On the one hand, he vaguely sensed that Cha Jiu seemed to know something, but he was not sure.
He was afraid that she would get close to Jiang Tingxu and secretly take revenge on the Ye family.
But on the other hand, relying on the identity of Jiang Tingxu's father-in-law, he could almost become a superior person in Beijing.
This is Jiang Tingxu.
The current actual person in charge of the Jiang Group!
Even if there are ten, no, a hundred Jiang Chens, they are not as good as one Jiang Tingxu!
Fortune and wealth are achieved through risk, and greed still outweighs fear.
Father Ye began to propose the project he had long coveted.
"Mr. Jiang, I heard that the Bihai City project is looking for companies to participate in the investment recently. I wonder if the Ye family can have this honor and benefit from it."
Cha Jiu leaned back on the sofa, watching with interest the servile look of Ye's father who was groveling for profit.
She had discussed this matter with Jiang Tingxu.
There is no need to expose Yunqi's identity in a hurry to avoid alerting the enemy.
Cha Jiu wanted to throw Jun into the jar, so that Ye's father would watch as the things he had worked so hard to obtain for many years were destroyed by his own hands.
Jiang Tingxu knew Cha Jiu's plan, but agreeing to it readily might arouse suspicion.
So he pretended to be embarrassed: "It is not easy for the Ye family to participate in this project."
Ye's father asked why.
Jiang Ting's preface: "Everyone knows that Bihai City is a new city project jointly developed by the Beijing Municipal Government and enterprises. Although it is a stable profit, it requires a large amount of financing, has a long construction period, and a slow return. That is why Jiang's Group, as the leading group, has joined forces with powerful investors to participate."
"Ye's funds are too small, and your business is very dependent on working capital, so you can't participate in this project at all."
Jiang Tingxu told the truth.
Ye's father also knew it, but he was reluctant to give up this good opportunity.
"Mr. Jiang, we are not greedy people. We just want to use this project to develop the company and give Qinghuan and Nian'en's families more confidence." Father Ye hypocritically sold his two daughters.
Jiang Tingxu seemed convinced and said helplessly: "Then what is your maximum investment amount?"
Ye's father was overjoyed and immediately gave a number.
Jiang Tingxu shook his head.
Ye's father was stunned. This was already two-thirds of Ye's liquid funds.
Jiang Tingxu directly stated the lowest financing amount.
Father Ye hesitated: "This..."
Ye Zhiyuan whispered in his ear: "Dad, this investment amount is too high. Even if we take out the entire Ye Group and my company's liquid funds and convertible assets, it is still far from enough."
At this time, Cha Jiu added fuel to the fire: "I object, Mr. Jiang, this project cannot be done with the Ye family. If the funds are returned too slowly, then the Ye family will go bankrupt within a year. I also have a stake in the Ye family, and I will not allow such a risky investment."
Ye Zhiyuan also disagreed. It was the first time that he and Cha Jiu stood on the same front.
Ye Nian'en was also very excited about this project.
She was worried at first whether it was a trap set by Cha Jiu, but now seeing that the other party was so reluctant for Ye’s company to participate in the project, her worries dissipated a little.
So she agreed with Ye's father: "It doesn't matter if the funds are slow to return. The company can operate with debt for a period of time. But if we rest on our laurels, Ye's will be swallowed up by other capital in the future."
Ye Nian'en smiled at Cha Jiu and said, "Sister, you can't be short-sighted when running a company."
According to the agreed routine, Cha Jiu pretended to be dissatisfied, while Jiang Tingxu scolded her.
"Well, it's not your turn to interfere in the company's operations."
Cha Jiu closed her mouth and continued to eat her strawberries quietly.
Ye Nian'en looked a little disdainful.
It seems that Jiang Tingxu doesn't love her very much.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have refuted her in front of so many people and not given her any face at all.
Uncle Chen looked up at the ceiling, extremely impressed by the acting skills of Mr. and Miss Ye.
Who was it that worked overtime for twenty minutes without taking a break last night, thus making Miss Ye angry, and she had to coax him with soft words all day long?
He didn't say.
Mingcheng didn't say anything either.
Mr. Ye wanted to say something, but was interrupted impatiently by Jiang Tingxu.
"Okay, you guys should discuss this matter among yourselves." He instructed Uncle Chen, "Take the guests to the restaurant."
Father Ye could only put the matter aside for the time being.
When everyone turned around and walked towards the restaurant, Cha Jiu quietly stuffed a strawberry into Jiang Tingxu's mouth.
"Is it sweet?" she whispered in his ear.
Jiang Tingxu's eyes were full of smiles: "Very sweet, was my acting good just now?"
