Chapter 82: Chen Qing is missing (80 diamonds + more)
The report letter had a huge impact and rumors spread.
The Huasheng board of directors took advantage of the issue and refused to cooperate in their work.
With the opening ceremony of the summit approaching, Jiang Jingyan spent most of his time in the company chatting with the senior executives.
In the evening, there were a few knocks on the office door and it opened.
He stood up to greet her, "Why are you here?"
Meng Hongwen sat down on the sofa and said, "Mr. Jiang, please don't blame me for not having an appointment."
"Are you deliberately trying to tease me?"
"Washington wants to punish you. They've been sending letters of complaint after letter to me. Why haven't you made any move?"
His jurisdiction was in the south of the state. Some people in the city knew he was there and were willing to give him face, trying their best to suppress the matter. They also sent people to invite him out to persuade them. Otherwise, the matter would have been out of control before Jiang Zhongyi returned.
"Since ancient times, which loyal minister has not been criticized?" Jiang Jingyan laughed, "I'm a grown man, so what if I say a few words?"
When Meng Hongwen heard this, he realized that he was going to handle the situation coldly.
So he said seriously, "Huasheng can't touch you because the higher-ups are suppressing you. They are considering your past achievements, not giving you special privileges."
Jiang Jingyan brewed a cup of tea and handed it to him respectfully.
"Your father is not in the city, so it's not convenient for him to intervene right now. He can't intervene either. His principle is to sacrifice relatives for the greater good. Your mother's investigation has just ended, and you are here—" Meng Hongwen sighed, "Send that female student away."
Jiang Jingyan said in a gruff voice, "Even if we send her away, the rumors will still be there, which doesn't prove anything."
"Prove you're remorseful! A half-term demotion is the worst that can happen, but it's better than dismissal, right?"
"I don't regret it. It's not a mistake for a man to be unmarried or a woman to be married. How can I regret it?"
Meng Hongwen looked inquiringly, "When you were engaged to the Tao family, do you dare to say that you didn't have an affair with her?"
He kept silent, which was considered as his agreement.
"The engagement has just been dissolved, and there's been a disturbance involving a female student. The Tao family is already unhappy."
"I still have some unfinished business, so they have to keep their dissatisfaction to themselves." Jiang Jingyan dragged over an ashtray. "At worst, we can just stop interacting with each other."
"What nonsense! You're rebelling!"
"My father didn't stop me, so don't get angry."
Meng Hongwen was so angry that his voice became louder. "Your father definitely doesn't know when she started following you!"
Jiang Jingyan paused as he was dusting off his cigarette ash, his face gloomy.
Meng Hongwen took a look and was almost certain. "I'll give you two choices. Either send Chen Qing to another province, or you can ask to go there yourself. There's a vacant position in the Huasheng branch that's big enough for a Buddha like you."
"Since I took over Washington, the board of directors has tried every possible means to get rid of me. Don't you know why?"
"Without you, Mr. Jiang, Huasheng will not be able to move forward?"
"It can be turned." Jiang Jingyan crossed his legs, full of ruffian spirit, "It depends on how it is turned. When I'm not here, Huasheng is completely rotten."
Meng Hongwen didn't respond for a moment.
Jiang Jingyan's abilities are obvious to all. If his superiors did not trust him, they would not have given him such a big title and asked him to come down to rectify the situation.
This kid has a stubborn temper and there is nowhere to hide in front of him.
"Then let Chen Qing go." Meng Hongwen made the final decision, "You don't have time to deal with it, I will handle it."
"no."
"You must have both?"
Jiang Jingyan half-closed his eyes, his voice deep, "Could it be that someone is causing trouble, and I have to fulfill his wish?"
"No matter how the matter ends, why do we have to leave evidence behind?"
No matter what Meng Hongwen said next, Jiang Jingyan did not respond or refute.
Finally, he said in a deep voice, "Express your stance, whether you will or not."
Jiang Jingyan didn't raise his eyes, playing with the pen, "Continue, I will solve it myself."
Meng Hongwen came in angrily and left in angrily.
Lian Zhuo chased after him and was also scolded.
Early the next morning, Jiang Jingyan sent a car to pick up Director Zhang and prepare to leave for school.
"Aren't you going to the meeting?" Lian Zhuo said worriedly, "It's better not to meet Miss Chen for the next few days."
The man strode forward, "I promised her that we'll have the final performance today."
"Miss Chen won't blame you."
"What nonsense." He scolded.
After arriving at the school, the school leaders led them to the auditorium.
All the programs of the folk music department ended before Chen Qing took the stage.
Jiang Jingyan frowned and took out his cell phone to check the program list.
Chen Qing sent a message last weekend saying that he had an exam and was too busy to see him. Three days ago, he sent the performance schedule.
A strange feeling crept into my heart.
He stood up, strode out and made a phone call.
Just then, a group of students came out of the side door of the auditorium. He recognized one of them and pulled him aside to ask, "Where's Chen Qing?"
Yuan Hui was surprised. "Mr. Jiang? Chen Qing has taken leave, and the performance has been cancelled."
"when."
"The day before yesterday."
Jiang Jingyan rushed back to the Jiang family.
The servant came to greet her, "Madam is meeting guests in the greenhouse——"
He ran straight to the backyard, opened the door, and said with a sullen look, "Is that you?"
Mrs. Jiang glanced at him and said, "Have a cup of freshly brewed flower tea to relieve internal heat."
There were three other people in the greenhouse, the Xue family and the president's wife.
Miss Xue smiled shyly, her face flushed. "Aunt Jiang just told us about you going to high school."
Jiang Jing's tone was chilling. "You submitted the first letter of denunciation, and you're still sitting in my house."
Mrs. Jiang's expression suddenly changed and her eyes became sharp.
Mrs. Xue knocked over her teacup and stood up hurriedly. "Mr. Jiang, what are you talking about? Wanwan won't—"
Miss Xue on the side avoided her gaze, and Mrs. Xue pulled her arm in disbelief, "How could you do such a thing!"
Jiang Jingyan ordered them to leave, "Discipline your daughter and go back to your own home."
The noisy greenhouse fell silent in half a minute.
Mrs. Jiang smashed her teacup to the ground. "If you weren't so stubborn and allowed Chen Qing to harm you, how could the Xue family be so bold!"
"You forced the Xue family into marriage." Jiang Jingyan's tone was gloomy, and he controlled his temper. "I have told you many times that marriage is your own decision. Did you listen?"
"The result of you making the decision is that people will report you!"
"Not many people know Chen Qing's identity. The Xue family and Madam Yan have met. Who sent the letter of accusation that night? Who is it that harmed me?"
"Yan Weilan?" Mrs. Jiang ignored his rebellious attitude and stood up to curse, "I've tolerated her for decades. She thought I was a pushover!"
Jiang Jingyan's eyes were dark with shock, and he squeezed out a voice through his teeth, "Where's Chen Qing?"
She straightened up and held on, "Where she belongs."
"Yan Weilan is manipulating Madam Tao's nephew behind the scenes, and now she's instigating the Xue family. I'm spending my time luring her away from her, so do I have to be on guard against you as well? I'll ask again, where is Chen Qing?"
"Don't worry, that place is absolutely safe. Once the storm has passed, you can even bring her back naturally."
Jiang Jingyan was on the verge of exploding.
Mrs. Chiang looked him in the eye and refused to back down.
