Chapter 94
Jiang Xiaomi had originally wanted to call for help, but as soon as she pulled Brother Gu out, she heard his brother spread rumors. Brother Gu was a gentleman, okay? When had he ever hit a woman?
However, Gu Jiangkuo, who was slandered, was not angry at all. Instead, he was overjoyed. He turned to Jiang Xiaomi and said, "Thank you for pulling me out. I owe you a favor."
Jiang Xiaomi: “?”
Then, he saw Brother Gu pick up the bucket of purified water at the corner of the stairs as he went downstairs, carry it in one hand and walk quickly downstairs, walk up to Jiang Nuo, and then smash the 40-pound bucket to the ground, right at his cousin's feet. The floor made a muffled sound, and his cousin's little grandson was so scared that he cried out "Wow".
Gu Jiangkuo: “…”
But my cousin was also stunned. She picked up the child without even breathing heavily. Then she looked at Jiang Kuo, a young man of nearly 1.9 meters tall with broad shoulders and long legs. He really had a fierce look on his face.
“What is this?”
Then, in front of his cousin, Gu Jiangkuo put his arm around Jiang Nuo's waist and said, "Hello, cousin, I'm Nuo Nuo's boyfriend. I'm sorry I didn't have time to say hello to you because I was changing the water. What were you talking about?"
Cousin: “…”
It seems that Jiang Nuo did not lie. Her boyfriend seems to have a bad temper, is strong, and a little stupid. He doesn't even give face to his elders. She is not afraid of gentlemen like Mr. Jiang and Jiang Nuo, but she is really afraid of this unreasonable young man.
Later, my cousin never mentioned introducing a partner again, and she didn't even accept the red envelope from her grandson. She just took the child and ran away.
Jiang Xiaomi was amazed.
Jiang Xiaomi raised her thumbs and said, "Brother Gu is awesome! Every year when my cousin comes, there's always trouble. Even my dad can't control her, but you managed to stun her with just this bucket of water! It's you! Some people just can't be reasoned with! As long as I have no morals, no one can kidnap me!"
Gu Jiangkuo: “…………”
Gu Jiangkuo gave his teammate a look that said, "Please shut up!" and quickly tried to make amends: "Nuonuo, was my acting convincing enough? I'm not usually like this. You know me. I'm very respectful to the elderly and the young. I'm a very polite person."
Jiang Xiaomi rolled her eyes and evacuated the scene without a care in the world, muttering, "How come Big Brother Gu is like a mad wolf in front of outsiders, not caring about his image at all, but turns into a domesticated dog in front of Jiang Dami? Look at him, he's about to shake his tail off. Tsk tsk tsk tsk, I can't do this when I find a wife in the future."
Brother Gu ignored him and continued to shift the blame: "Jiang Su just came to me and said that someone downstairs was bullying him. I thought, you are brothers, bullying him is the same as bullying you, so I hurried out to check it out. I was a little impulsive, but I didn't embarrass you, did I? You're not angry, are you?"
Jiang Nuo laughed and said, "How could that be? You saved me a lot of trouble."
In the past, this cousin would always stay away for most of the day, and Lao Jiang was always more embarrassed than him. He would also feel guilty for not finding a job for his relative and would give her a red envelope of several thousand yuan as compensation.
This time, the problem was solved without him having to do anything himself, and Young Master Jiang was happy to have a few hours of peace.
"Let's sit down for a while," Jiang Nuo said, "Let's talk to her. My waist and legs are sore from standing."
Gu Jiangkuo replaced the 40-jin bucket with the water dispenser in the living room with one hand before sitting down next to Jiang Nuo. As soon as he sat down, his temperament became inexplicably weak, with a touch of melancholy that was almost like Lin Daiyu. After a moment of silence, he handed the phone to Young Master Jiang: "Everything is sorted."
Jiang Nuo: “?”
Jiang Nuo took the phone and saw that the page was stuck on a WeChat message.
The sender was Yu Min, CEO of Boyo Co., Ltd.: [Mr. Jiang, Happy New Year! I heard the temperature has dropped in Yanlin, so please keep warm. I had originally planned to have dinner with you before the holiday, but a business emergency has forced us to postpone it. Let's meet after the New Year. Happy New Year! Yu Min and his family wish you all the best and a smooth and prosperous New Year. [Rose][Rose].]
When Gu Jiangkuo saw this message, he almost deleted it. What was wrong with this Yu guy? Everyone else was sending those festive group messages, but he was the only one who stood out. And you're still trying to stay warm? City A is even colder. How could you not freeze to death?
Jiang Nuo didn't reply immediately after reading it. Instead, he asked thoughtfully, "What do you think he meant?"
Gu Jiangkuo blurted out: "No good intentions." When this man saw Nuonuo for the first time, his eyes almost popped out. Sure enough, he was still thinking about her for so long.
I really want to dig out his eyeballs.
"I think so too," Young Master Jiang echoed. "We fueled the public opinion that caused Shengchen's stock to plummet, and the timing of the share withdrawal was very delicate. Yu Min is a seasoned fox, so it's impossible for him not to guess what role we played in this."
Gu Jiangkuo's true nature showed up again, and he sneered, "Why should we be afraid of him? So what if Boyao is a veteran in the financial market? Shengchen's stock price has been plummeting. Simply throwing money at the market to save it would be too costly. They can't afford it, and they can't wait. But we have plenty of time."
Jiang Nuo also laughed, his eyes filled with admiration. "Right, you've hit the nail on the head. They're playing with the capital market, and we're waiting for the future of the company. We're not on the same wavelength at all. Boyue won't just invest in one stock. Once the funding chain breaks, they won't be able to recover their investment in other stocks. They won't do that."
"It's like a game of cards. We're playing with all our cards open, revealing all our schemes, but they can't do anything about it," Jiang Nuo murmured. "But since the outcome is already decided, and the Jiang family and him are done with each other, why did Yu Min still invite me to dinner?"
They say there are no permanent enemies or friends in business, only permanent interests. Could it be that he has other business to discuss with me? At this time?
Mr. Jiang found it unbelievable.
Gu Jiangkuo then righteously said, "Yu Min is too cunning and has no moral bottom line. He helps celebrities cheat ordinary people out of their hard-earned money, and he also helps foreign countries short-sell Chinese companies to profit from it. Look at how harshly he's been criticized online. Don't even get involved with people like him. We can't let him ruin the brand image that our Jiang Group has worked so hard to establish!"
Jiang Nuo: “…” What he said was true, but why didn’t he realize before that Gu Jiangkuo had such a strong sense of justice?
Gu Jiangkuo seemed to be able to hear his inner voice and added, "It's not that I have a sense of justice, but I have a certain degree of business sensitivity. If Yu Min ever proposes to cooperate with Jiang Corporation, we must be cautious!"
Although Gu Dajiang's attitude was strange, President Jiang also agreed with this view.
After laying the groundwork for so long, Gu Jiangkuo finally got to the point: "So when he invites you to dinner, it's best to take me with him."
"..." Young Master Jiang suddenly understood and looked at Gu Jiangkuo speechlessly.
Gu Jiangkuo cleared his throat and sat upright, avoiding his boyfriend's gaze. "I'm mainly worried that you'll fall for his tricks and damage the company's interests, so I'm keeping an eye on you."
...Okay.
The disease caused by vinegar essence cannot be cured overnight.
However, to cure an illness, one must address both internal and external factors. Besides forcing him not to get jealous, one must also provide him with a sense of security. Mr. Jiang thought for a moment and said, "I was afraid you'd find dealing with relatives boring, so I didn't invite you before. If you don't mind the trouble, how about you accompany me to social events starting tomorrow? I'll also take this opportunity to introduce you to my family."
