Chapter 244 Lu Junyan really doesn't love her
As Jiang Ning was pinned against the wall, she saw the calm yet burning rage in Lu Junyan's eyes.
"You would have died on that construction site long ago without me. Is this how you repay me?"
Lu Junyan's deep, magnetic voice rubbed hard against Jiang Ning's eardrum.
Jiang Ning knew that, given Lu Junyan's temperament, he wouldn't just sit idly by after the extraordinary shareholders' meeting.
“I have already shown you leniency… Otherwise, before proposing your removal, I should have worked on those minority shareholders and united them; it might have been possible to remove you from office.”
Jiang Ning was telling the truth, and Lu Junyan was well aware of it.
It is obvious that Jiang Ning's purpose in convening this extraordinary shareholders' meeting was not to remove him, but to restrict his control over the company's cash flow.
In other words, Jiang Ning wasn't targeting him at all.
Instead...
"Do you really have to be so ruthless?"
Lu Junyan asked, frowning.
"Are you really going to drive Qingxue to the brink of despair?!"
Jiang Ning's shoulder was hurt by Lu Junyan's grip.
Lu Junyan was staring at her intently.
Jiang Ning did not avoid that sharp gaze.
She saw blame in Lu Junyan's eyes.
But more than anything, I felt a deep sense of guilt.
It was Lu Junyan's guilt towards Chu Qingxue.
Jiang Ning remained silent for a long time before letting out a cold laugh.
"You should question your beloved Chu Qingxue."
"Jiang Ning, the person who harmed you is Fu Xinyue..."
Jiang Ning forcefully broke free from Lu Junyan's grasp.
"Lu Junyan, is there any point in deceiving yourself?"
"What?"
Lu Junyan was taken aback. He saw Jiang Ning slightly raise his chin, his expression serious and full of pressure.
"Fu Xinyue identified Chu Qingxue before she was imprisoned."
"But the police found no evidence."
"So you think that after Fu Xinyue went bankrupt, she was reduced to working as a waitress and delivering food. Where did she get the money and connections to hire help? And how did she manage to hook up with Zhao Yuhai?"
"..."
"Lu Junyan, you just don't want to admit it. You don't want to admit that your first love, your white moonlight, is actually a sinister and vicious murderer!"
Jiang Ning's roar seemed to be a wake-up call for Lu Junyan.
She saw Lu Junyan close his eyes.
This was the first time she had ever seen such a painful and conflicted expression on Lu Junyan's face.
It's for Chu Qingxue...
That expression... was shown for Chu Qingxue...
The hatred that had been entrenched in Jiang Ning's heart suddenly turned into a sense of powerlessness.
Jiang Ning didn't want to get angry with Lu Junyan.
The angrier she gets, the more it seems like she still cares about Lu Junyan.
However, Jiang Ning really had a hard time controlling his emotions, especially when Lu Junyan defended Chu Qingxue time and time again.
That day, after Lu Junyan left the hospital, she lay on the hospital bed thinking for a long time, unable to fall asleep.
She wondered, why did Lu Junyan save her time and time again?
If you really don't love her and have no feelings for her at all, why bother?
Later, she figured it out.
Lu Junyan truly doesn't love her.
Saving her... was merely an act of atonement for Chu Qingxue's sins, a form of compensation for her.
After all, Lu Junyan had done things like compensating Chu Qingxue in order to help her before.
Jiang Ning firmly believes that every time something happens to her, the mastermind behind it is always related to Chu Qingxue.
evidence?
She didn't.
But unlike Lu Junyan, she wouldn't deceive herself by saying it wasn't Chu Qingxue who did it without solid evidence.
Jiang Ning was willing to trust his intuition.
They are more willing to believe the clues provided by Zhong Cheng.
When Zhong Cheng told her that he had accidentally discovered the connection between Chu Qingxue and Qian Dazhi, Jiang Ning understood that Chu Qingxue had secretly helped Qian Dazhi kidnap her.
Later, Fu Xinyue was repeatedly made a scapegoat, which was also due to Chu Qingxue's machinations behind the scenes.
Fu Xinyue had made her identification very clear when she was about to die, but she was struggling to find evidence.
Jiang Ning admitted that Chu Qingxue was smart enough.
Or perhaps Chu Qingxue's helpers are cunning enough.
Since the police can't catch Chu Qingxue, then she'll send Chu Qingxue to hell herself.
The CD company that supposedly absconded with the money actually belonged to her.
It was Zhong Cheng who helped her register the shell company.
This new mineral vein tender from Country C was a trap she set for Chu Qingxue from beginning to end.
Lying in her hospital bed, watching Chu Qingxue walk step by step into her trap was more nourishing than any medicine.
Making Chu Qingxue completely bankrupt and burdened with huge debts is not easy.
Because Chu Qingxue's backer is Lu Junyan.
Therefore, Jiangning made multiple preparations this time.
The reason for conducting the mineral vein bidding was that it was closely related to Chu Qingxue's job, making it easy to arouse her interest and lure her in.
On the other hand, the demand for funds is enormous.
As it turns out, Lu Junyan really dotes on Chu Qingxue, taking a full 1.5 billion yuan in liquid funds without hesitation.
However, just in case, Jiang Ning also had Zhong Cheng hack into the chip factory and force the chip production to stop.
Furthermore, by threatening Lu Junyan with his status as a shareholder, they could force him to sign a fund supervision agreement. In this way, Lu's family would be unable to repay Chu Qingxue's debts, and what awaited Chu Qingxue would be an abyss of no return.
When Lu Junyan opened his eyes again, he saw Jiang Ning's cold, smiling face.
This face made Lu Junyan feel a moment of unfamiliarity.
"Jiang Ning, actually I..."
"You don't need to take advantage of my kindness."
Jiang Ning coldly interrupted Lu Junyan.
"You've saved me time and time again... just to make up for the harm Chu Qingxue caused me..."
When Jiang Ning said those words, she saw Lu Junyan's eyes widen and his disbelief grow stronger.
"Ultimately, the person you're helping isn't me, but Chu Qingxue..."
"Jiang Ning, why would you look at me like that?"
"Otherwise, how am I supposed to see you?"
Jiang Ning stared intently at Lu Junyan.
"Do you think you should let Chu Qingxue go just because you saved me?"
"..."
"I'm telling you, Lu Junyan, Chu Qingxue is definitely dead this time!"
After making those harsh remarks, Jiang Ning left the office without looking back.
In the office, Lu Junyan pressed his burning stomach.
It hurts so much...
Lu Junyan slowly sat down, supporting himself on the desk.
For a moment, he couldn't tell whether it was a stomachache or a heartache.
turn out to be……
Jiang Ning has always thought this way about him.
He saved Jiang Ning's life several times, which Jiang Ning saw as compensation for Chu Qingxue.
Lu Junyan was in so much pain that his face turned deathly pale, his breathing became rapid, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.
"Since you're thinking so deeply..."
Suppressing the pain, Lu Junyan muttered to himself:
"Why don't you think about it again..."
He knew that Chu Qingxue was bidding for the mining rights of a new mineral vein in Country C, but CD Company, as a surveying and appraisal company, had little experience and reputation in Country C.
However, the government of Country C only issued the survey report from Company CD.
If he had known about this, he wouldn't have blindly bid.
He could have easily given Chu Qingxue a heads-up.
But he didn't.
He heard that Jiangning was also interested in the bidding and had raised nearly 1 billion yuan from Mo and Yuan.
However, he sent people to investigate and found that the news was true, but the funds had not been touched. In other words, Jiang Ning did not really want to raise funds from the Mo and Yuan families, but just wanted others to think that she had raised funds.
A possibility gradually became clear in Lu Junyan's mind.
