Chapter 56 Don’t Make Dad Angry
Don't make Dad angry
Yu Yang's position was not far from Wen Ruan and the others, but not close either.
When he came in, there was only this one empty seat, so he could only sit here. He couldn't hear what they said, but he knew that the two of them were not having a very pleasant conversation.
I don’t know what Wen Ruan said, but Jiang Qingyan’s face looked very ugly, his brows were furrowed, and he looked gloomy and serious. His hands on the table were clenched into fists, and the blue veins on the back of his hands were clearly visible.
My phone rang. It was a message from Mr. He, [Is it over?]
Yu Yang was speechless, thinking that the food had just been served, how could it be so fast? Mr. He had to send a message every ten minutes to ask, he was really too impatient.
Yu Yang: [Mr. He, not yet.]
After sending the message, Yu Yang thought for a moment, then took a picture of Jiang Qingyan with his phone and sent it to He Zheng. [I don't know what Director Wen said to make CEO Jiang so angry.]
In the private room at No. 10 Jingwan Road, He Zheng clicked on the photo sent by Yu Yang and enlarged it.
Jiang Qingyan's depression and low mood can be seen even through the photo.
He Zheng knew very well how Wen Ruan could irritate people, because he had often been irritated to the point of pain in his heart over the years, and he wanted to beat him up, but he couldn't bear to do so.
So what did Wen Ruan say that could make Jiang Qingyan, a hypocrite who is the best at hiding his emotions, so angry?
While feeling secretly happy, He Zheng thought of Wen Ruan's words again.
——"Jiang Qingyan said there was something about Pan Rui. I'll go and listen."
About Pan Rui? Pan Rui is fine now, what could happen to him?
…
In the Chinese restaurant, Wen Ruan was too lazy to talk nonsense with Jiang Qingyan.
"What happened between He Zheng and me, whether I love him or not, or whether he's a good person or not, has nothing to do with Mr. Jiang. Mr. Jiang asked me to come here today to talk about Pan Rui. If Mr. Jiang brings up anything else, I have to leave."
Jiang Qingyan stared at her and sneered.
"I said He Zheng made you unhappy? Wen Ruan, do you really think He Zheng is a good person? When you stopped Chao Ce, Dong Chao and Pan Rui rejected Rong Li's second olive branch and turned around to sign with Feiding Investment."
He finally turned the topic to Pan Rui.
Wen Ruan put down his chopsticks and looked up at him.
Jiang Qingyan's expression was tense, his handsome face sullen. "It was He Zheng who built a bridge between Pan Rui and Feiding Investment. Did you know about this?"
Wen Ruan knew of course that it was she who asked He Zheng to save Chao Ce.
At first, she didn't know that He Zheng was looking for Fei Ding, because she left Haicheng after Rong Li's celebration banquet and had no time to worry about it.
Later, when Zhang Tongtong talked about this with her during a video call, she found out that He Zheng had introduced Feiding Investment.
Facts have proved that He Zheng was right.
After Feiding Investment signed Chaoce, as she had expected at the Rongli investment decision-making meeting, after the game was launched, with a little operation, Chaoce's market share soared.
Even better than expected.
Because Lingyi Technology was exposed in a scandal at the beginning of the year, Dong Chao, the founder of Fireworks Studio, became a victim.
Nowadays, people like to follow the trend, sympathize with the weak, and take advantage of the popularity. Mr. Zhao of Feiding Investment is an expert in manipulating public opinion. After his manipulation, Chaoce ushered in a small climax last month.
Pan Rui was also very capable. With the financial support of capital, he overcame another difficulty in the shortest time and just upgraded the strategy.
Feiding has already started warming up, and there will be another market surge soon. Some people on the Internet predict that Chaoce's market share will exceed Lingyi's previous hit product.
Wen Ruan didn't know why Jiang Qingyan brought this up, "What do you want to say?"
Jiang Qingyan: "Mr. Zhao of Feiding Investment is well-known in the industry for his shrewdness and focus on profit. He pursues maximum profit. He invested in Chaoce not to clean up Chaoce's mess, but to give Chaoce the best packaging and then sell it. Chaoce's next market peak will probably be in October, when the valuation will be the highest. He will definitely sell Chaoce."
Jiang Qingyan stared at Wen Ruan, with a repressed shadow in his dark eyes.
"He Zheng is such a smart person, it's impossible for him not to see that. If he really wanted to save Chao Ce, he would have many ways to help. He chose Feiding Investment on purpose. He wanted to let Chao Ce invite the wolf into the house."
"Wen Ruan, you insisted on stopping Chao Ce because you didn't want to ruin Pan Rui's dream. Fei Ding selling Chao Ce later would go against your original intention. You couldn't tolerate it then, but you can tolerate it now?"
Wen Ruan stared at him for a long time, clicked his tongue, and suddenly laughed.
"First of all, I don't know why He Zheng saved Chao Ce first and then tricked him, but don't put the blame of inviting a wolf into the house on He Zheng. He Zheng helped them introduce Feiding Investment and saved them at the most critical moment. That's good enough. You can't expect He Zheng to take care of them for the rest of their lives."
"Secondly, yes, my original intention was to help Pan Rui, and now I am helping him. If Dong Chao is smart enough to hold on to the controlling stake, no one can sell Chaoce, and then Pan Rui will not be affected."
"If Dong Chao can't hold on to Chaoce, then Chaoce will be sold at the highest valuation. Pan Rui will be a shareholder and will become rich overnight. As for the future... Dong Chao's inability to hold on to the empire he built shows that he is not capable enough. It would be better for Pan Rui to leave him sooner, go to a large company, or start his own business. Both have good futures."
Wen Ruan took a sip of tea and placed the cup in his hand on the table neither lightly nor heavily.
She raised her eyebrows and looked at Jiang Qingyan, with the corners of her lips curled up.
"Boss Jiang asked me out today. If he just wanted to say these things to sow discord between me and He Zheng, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed. I love He Zheng so much right now that I can tolerate whatever he does."
There was an unconcealable gloom and undercurrent in Jiang Qingyan's eyes.
He gripped his teacup tightly, his voice tight.
"Wen Ruan, I'm doing this for your own good. He Zheng's background has been made public, and he's destined to be trapped in the Yao family's quagmire. You shouldn't get involved. Wouldn't it be better for you to change your career and live a simple life? Why won't you just disobey me?"
"I know I've let you down, and I apologize. How can you calm down? What do you want? Tell me what you want."
Wen Ruan smiled, "You can't help me with what I want."
Jiang Qingyan stared at her, "You said, as long as you..."
"I want to sleep with He Zheng."
Wen Ruan looked at his eyes that were shattered with shock for a moment, and smiled, "I want to sleep with He Zheng, but you are not He Zheng, so you can't help me."
Bang!
The glass in Jiang Qingyan's hand shattered without any defense, just like the shattered light and shadow in his pupils.
…
After Wen Ruan left the Chinese restaurant, he followed Yu Yang to the parking lot.
On the way, she called Zhang Tongtong and asked her when she would return to Haicheng.
After overcoming the technical difficulties of Chaoce, Pan Rui took a rare half-month break. It happened to be summer vacation, so he took Zhang Tongtong and her daughter on a trip.
When Zhang Tongtong received the call, she was running towards the high-speed rail station with her daughter, and her voice was a little breathless.
"Go back now and get to the high-speed rail station right away."
Wen Ruan was shocked. "High-speed rail station? Didn't you drive there? Where's Pan Rui?"
"Don't mention him! He's still playing with his mom and nephew! I'll be back with Guoguo first," Zhang Tongtong said angrily. "It's hard to explain. I'll tell you when I get back. We're almost late for the bus."
Wen Ruan didn't ask any more questions, "What time will you arrive? I'll pick you up."
"Four o'clock."
It's already half past two. According to the time and distance, I have to leave the company within a few minutes.
Wen Ruan asked Yu Yang to take her directly to the high-speed rail station. "I'll ask for leave from Mr. He myself. After you drop me off, you can go back to your business."
The order Yu Yang received from his boss was: obey Director Wen's command in everything.
"OK."
After Wen Ruan got in the car, she sent a recording to He Zheng. She had recorded the conversation she had just had with Jiang Qingyan on her mobile phone.
Wen Ruan: [Remember to wear headphones and listen. By the way, ask Mr. He for a leave. I'm going to pick up Zhang Tongtong and won't be going to the company this afternoon.]
When He Zheng saw the message, he had just finished a dinner and was driving towards the Yao family's old house.
He asked the driver for headphones.
I listened to the entire recording from beginning to end. At first I was angry that Jiang Qingyan was trying to sow discord, but later I felt more and more satisfied.
——Now, I love He Zheng very much. I can tolerate whatever he does.
——I want to sleep with He Zheng, but you are not He Zheng, so you can’t help me.
He listened to the last part over and over again until the car stopped at the Yao family's old house.
He Meiju came out to greet him when she heard the news. Thinking that he had a bad temper, she came out to give him a few words of advice first. She had a bunch of words in her mind to persuade him not to cause trouble today, but in the end, none of them came in handy.
He Zheng was in a very good mood. He didn't give her a bad look when he saw her. He even raised his chin and greeted her actively.
"Isn't it hot outside? Come inside quickly."
He Meizhu's eyes widened, as if she had seen a ghost, and she didn't react for a long time, "Huh?"
Although his tone wasn't gentle, but! He cared about her? He actually cared about her? The sun rose from the west?
He Zheng ignored her and followed the housekeeper, who looked surprised but not revealing it, into the house. Yao Wei was waiting for him in the study. The housekeeper took him directly to the study, respectfully invited him in, and closed the door.
Yao Wei was sitting on the sofa, calculating the time and had just made tea. When he saw him come in, he pointed across.
"Come on, sit down and try the tea. It should suit your taste."
He Zheng stopped smiling as he came in, sat down opposite with his legs crossed, and went straight to the point.
"Let's get down to business. Do you want to hold me accountable for revealing Yao Man's dark past at the party, or do you want to talk about me recruiting Wen Ruan into Minghe?"
Yao Wei placed the teacup in front of him and gave the order directly.
"Manman is your biological sister after all. You shouldn't help outsiders bully her. She's at home now. You should apologize to her later. As for Wen Ruan, just quit. She can't stay in Minghe."
He Zheng: "What if I don't apologize and don't fire Wen Ruan?"
Yao Wei was twisting a string of black Buddhist beads in his hand, and his sharp eyes looked at He Zheng with majesty. The father and son were competing with each other and stared at each other for a long time.
Yao Wei sighed softly.
"He Zheng, don't always make Dad angry. You should know that if I get really angry, you won't be able to keep Minghe. I have plenty of ways to acquire Minghe."
He Zheng sneered, "Acquisition? Like Rongli Capital? I heard that Rongli Capital's predecessor was Zhenhua Capital. You forced the acquisition and even killed the founder of Zhenhua Capital. So? If I don't obey, you're going to kill me too?"
Outside the door.
When Yao Man heard that He Zheng had arrived, she went downstairs to settle the score with him.
As soon as I walked over, I saw Jiang Qingyan standing at the door of the study. He was holding a pile of documents in his hands, his face was gloomy, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
Yao Man walked over, "Qing Yan? What's wrong with you? Why don't you go in?"
