Chapter 24 Chapter 24 It's like she's going to eat me
"What do you mean by daily use?"
Jiang Chongyan frowned slightly, recalling that every time he passed by the shelves, he seemed to see a large number of different kinds of things.
If you want to buy something for her, you have to know which one she wants.
Unexpectedly, after asking this question, the evil woman turned pale, but still stared in surprise.
"Master, have you never bought sanitary napkins?"
"Your previous girlfriends never asked you to buy it?"
“…”
Jiang Chongyan met her gaze coldly.
She pursed her lips and didn't answer.
?
So you really haven't bought one for your girlfriend?
Xin Tong opened her mouth and shook her head. Another straight man with no knowledge of physiology and hygiene.
Xin Tong's stomach started to ache again and she had no strength to do anything.
She was too lazy to think about what Jiang Chongyan's cold glance just now meant, and waved her hand listlessly.
“Just buy whatever you want!”
"I'll just make do with it. I'll be leaving soon."
Thinking of Jiang Chongyan's mysterious look, who usually kept strangers away and kept to himself, Xin Tong added another sentence.
"I know you dress up beautifully every day and wear different perfumes. I can tell you like to be clean."
"Don't worry. I'll compensate you with a brand new sofa and blanket later. You can pick whatever you want, I'll pay for it."
...What Jiang Chongyan wanted to say was blocked again.
His chest heaved, and he could only let out a breath and walked out the door with a sullen face.
…
Buy whatever you want.
That was the order he had received.
Jiang Chongyan's tall figure stood silently in front of the colorful shelves.
A shopping guide stood out next to him.
"Handsome guy, buying this for your girlfriend?"
"Will you buy it?"
"Do you need an introduction?"
The other party asked three questions in a row.
Jiang Chongyan has always been afraid of trouble. He speaks and acts decisively. He doesn't care about being misunderstood and is too lazy to waste extra energy.
He lowered his head and hummed, answering all three questions.
The salesperson began to give a flowery introduction. Jiang Chongyan listened with his eyes downcast, and he probably understood everything.
There were five categories: day products, night products, panty liners, tampons, and sleep pants. He was too lazy to choose and simply grabbed the most expensive brand of each. Finally, he left the supermarket with a giant bag.
Passing by a milk tea shop on the side of the road, he paused for a moment and then stopped.
Having never bought this thing before, he stood there and looked at it for a few seconds.
After his calm eyes swept over a series of dazzling words such as "Matcha", "Ice Cream", "Grass Jelly", "Green Milk", etc., he finally stopped at the last two words.
"Brown sugar".
It should be the same thing as brown sugar.
The clerk watched as a tall, burly man approached. His brows were cold and sharp, his medium-length, light-blond hair cascading to his shoulders, and his silver earrings dazzled. The young clerk's legs trembled with fear, and she even scrutinized the man's arms to see if he had a blue dragon or white tiger tattoo.
The next second, I heard the man say expressionlessly,
"Brown Sugar Bobo Thick Milk Pearl Ginger Cream."
After saying that, he paused again.
"I want it hot."
…
Jiang Chongyan returned home carrying a lot of bags. As soon as he entered the door, he heard a woman's unbearable roar coming from inside.
Frustrated, a little mute, delicate, and very angry.
She was screaming his name in despair.
"Jiang Chongyan!"
Xin Tong was thrown to the ground, with her upper body pressed by the Chinese native dog and her lower body pressed by the golden retriever.
The people were barking, and the dogs were barking too. One person and two dogs couldn't live in peace, and the whole house was in chaos.
The two dogs smelled the blood and became very excited, jumping towards her thighs.
She was pressed to the ground and tried to block with her hands in panic.
"Take care of your horny dog!"
*
Even when she sat in the passenger seat of Jiang Chongyan's car, Xin Tong still looked listless, holding the milk tea in her hand.
"What are the names of your two dogs?"
After a while, the man's calm voice was heard.
"The golden retriever's name is Coke."
"The Chinese native dog is called Sprite."
Xin Tong snorted.
"Such a refreshing name, and such a sexy personality."
"As soon as you left, it was like you were on an aphrodisiac. You went straight to my thighs, drooling all over my legs, as if you wanted to eat me up."
As soon as he finished speaking, he received a cold glance from the man in the driver's seat next to him.
"Again, it's a dog's instinct to get excited when it smells blood. It has nothing to do with lust."
He sneered, his words hinting at something.
"I think these words are quite suitable to describe yourself."
“Don’t push others by your own standards.”
…describe herself?
"It's like taking an aphrodisiac. I'm going straight in... and my mouth is watering... like I want to eat... it."
Xin Tong choked for a rare moment.
The unexpected incident that happened this evening after Jiang Chongyan rescued him in the square quickly emerged in his mind.
Indeed, a perfect match.
Every scene fits.
When Xin Tong thought of this, the hot and scorching feeling under her body at that time immediately emerged in her mind.
Her eyes were wandering, and she was stealthily glancing at the lower body of the cold-faced King of Hell next to her.
He was wearing dark trousers today. The material was stiff and loose, and the fabric wrinkled at the base of his thighs as he sat down.
Why wear something so baggy? You can't even see any outline.
Pretend to be reserved.
Xin Tong stared without blinking.
This guy's face is not to be mentioned, his legs go weak just by looking at him.
Height 188cm, top of the top.
She had a slender waist, long legs, broad shoulders, and a large frame. Every time he approached her, the shadow he cast was enormous, with a sharp sense of oppression and aggression, tightly covering her.
She had thin subcutaneous fat and a low body fat percentage. Years of dancing had given her a stable core, and a thin layer of muscle that looked good and was strong. When he first met her on the second floor of Yu Chengjin's villa, it was as easy as hugging a cloud.
The most worth savoring is the hand.
The forearm muscles are stretched and powerful, and their shape is extremely obvious when exerting force. The long, winding blue veins under the skin extend all the way to invisible places.
The fingers are slender, the calluses on the palms are obvious, the nails are trimmed neatly and roundly, and they often wear rings.
A yellow storm blew up in Xin Tong's mind.
Arthur, please take a seat.
…
She had been acting as Doraemon for a long time, staring intently, when suddenly the whole car braked suddenly. She was caught off guard and leaned forward, then was pulled back by the seat belt, and her back bounced twice on the seat.
"What are you doing?! You're driving without looking at the road!"
She yelled, her voice still a little coquettish even though she was angry.
Meeting the man's calm eyes.
He seemed to be smiling, but Xin Tong felt a chill down her spine for no reason.
The peeking was discovered.
Xin Tong was also extremely thick-skinned. Feeling guilty, she withdrew her gaze and began to look out the window in an attempt to hide her mistake.
Outside the car window is the autumn night of Wucheng.
This is the most comfortable season in this coastal city. Summers are hot and humid, winters are cold and damp, but autumn is the only season. July is hot, leaves are falling, and stars are visible in the distant sky.
Xin Tong is a local and grew up in this city.
The bustling city, the streets and alleys.
The summer here is too sunny, the winter is too cold, only the autumn—
Seasonal memories, as a teenager, of gleefully pulling out a new dress and eagerly running out the door to take selfies with my friends. The hem of my skirt billowed behind me like the golden sycamore leaves fluttering along the streets of Wucheng in autumn.
She likes autumn best.
In a blink of an eye, she is already 22 years old.
The lights were dim, and the neon lights of the city flashed across the car window.
The medium-sized space in the car fell into silence.
A lukewarm evening breeze blew across my face, softly and gently.
Just like the 21 years she had spent in this city before, the wind blew her long hair in front of her chest, causing her black eyelashes to tremble slightly.
But today, at this moment, the small, scattered worries of adolescence had perfectly ended in Wucheng's 18th autumn. As people grow older, their worries become more serious and profound. On the 22nd autumn day, she and this man, whom she had known for only a week, boarded the same car, bound for the same destination.
The black car sped forward, carrying two people temporarily bound together. Like a drop of water flowing into the ocean, like a flame born from red phosphorus, it melted into the endless black autumn night of the city.
The same wind also slowly blew the light golden hair on the man's temples.
*
"I thought," Xin Tong broke the silence, "I was going to call the police alone, and you wouldn't come with me."
A few seconds later, Jiang Chongyan said in a cold voice,
"I saved you, so I have to go as a witness."
"Since we're going, taking you with us is just a matter of convenience."
Xin Tong nodded, indeed.
He was involved in the latter part of the incident and is a key witness. He will likely be called in to cooperate with the investigation later, so it's better to come clean now.
She looked out the window and murmured.
"So is Zhang De and He Xiangrong."
"If they want to take revenge on me, there are so many ways to do it, but why do these people choose to drug and rape me?"
She was really confused and really didn't understand.
"Is it because my reputation is too romantic and always linked to ambiguous affairs?"
After a few seconds, Jiang Chongyan's faint voice came from the side.
"It's none of your business."
"Just because you're a woman."
"These men have no sex appeal, low IQ, and use all their emotional intelligence to please the male superiors. In their eyes, women are tools and objects, without brains or value, only erotic significance."
"They are so despicable, so disgusting, and so self-righteous. They think women's greatest use is reproduction and sex, so their greatest revenge on women is to make them lose their virginity, and ideally, have it known to the public, doubly humiliating them, making them consider themselves dirty and live under the heavy weight of criticism forever."
He was driving, the wind blowing through the window across his angular profile.
He suddenly sneered.
"I was raised by my grandma."
"I can't stand this kind of mean man the most."
"He crawled out from under a woman's legs, was raised by a woman, and finally stepped on the woman and took away her world."
The light turned green. He stepped on the accelerator.
"But this trick won't work on you."
He paused, his tone was rarely gentle, and he spoke in a low voice.
“That’s a good thing.”
Xin Tong looked at him blankly.
"Jiang Chongyan."
She called his name, "This is the first time you've praised me."
The man was a little choked.
He looked straight ahead, holding the steering wheel, and remained silent, not even looking at her in the passenger seat.
A few seconds later, Xin Tong heard a very light "hmm".
It was very soft, but Xin Tong heard it clearly.
An inexplicable feeling came over me. Light and airy.
"You have good taste. I accept it."
Xin Tong snorted and turned to look out the window.
She looked at the tall buildings outside the window, then at the kittens on the roadside. Finally, she looked at the car window and saw through the reflection the corners of her mouth that had already been raised.
…
Xin Tong still remembers looking at the time when she woke up on the sofa in Jiang Chongyan's house.
It had been nearly an hour since she escaped from the car.
If they couldn't find her after searching for a while, they would probably immediately inform He Xiangrong, who was waiting in the villa. Nothing had been done yet, so there was plenty of time to destroy all evidence. If the police really came, they could simply deny it.
Xin Tong expressed his guess with a sad face.
"What else can we do now? If he really destroys the evidence and refuses to admit it, there might not be anything we can do to him."
"not necessarily."
The man shook his head.
"These are just your guesses. Don't make assumptions about things that haven't happened."
Jiang Chongyan placed his right hand on the steering wheel and turned it to the bottom.
"In street dance competitions, in addition to individual battles, there will also be group battles."
"If you want to win, you need to know who on your team is good at what element, and when a specific element appears, send out the corresponding member."
His voice was light, and his slender fingers gently moved down the steering wheel, finally tapping slowly.
"Want evidence?"
"The executive you mentioned was forced by He Xiangrong to do something, but was actually unwilling to do it."
“Maybe that’s the breaking point.”
Xin Tong blinked, and suddenly an epiphany came to her.
She immediately took out her cell phone and started checking Gao Zhengguang's employee information.
But when I turned to the end, it was basically just contact information and personal resume, without any valuable breakthrough points.
Come to think of it, the company's employee system only contains dead information and absolutely no details of life.
Xin Tong pondered for a while.
Then I called Quan Li directly and asked,
"How much do you know about Gao Zhengguang?"
The other party was stunned for only two seconds, and then immediately said, "Wait a moment, I'll get back to you."
The call ended. Xin Tong held up the phone and waited.
Sure enough, ten minutes later, Quan Li called back and clearly stated various information, including Gao Zhengguang's wife's company, children's school, home address, and even where his children were attending cram school today.
"There's little turnover among the company's senior management, and veteran employees at the same level know each other well. So, I just found out privately from other senior executives. They spoke in a casual tone, explaining that it was about gift orders for the company's annual meeting, and your name wasn't mentioned."
...Xin Tong didn't know what to say anymore.
No words could describe her feelings at the moment. Her urge to get more gold coins reached its peak, and she immediately transferred 8888.
After thinking for a few seconds, afraid that Quan Li would not accept it, he sent another transfer of 8888 to her, with the note "Red envelope, voluntary gift. You must accept it, or I will fire you if you don't [threatening little cat head]", and then he put down the phone with satisfaction.
Seeing that the cram school mentioned on the phone was about to end, Xin Tong searched for the address of the cram school. The black car turned around and drove forward.
*
When the alarm clock rang to pick up the children from school, Gao Zhengguang was at home, hurriedly packing his things, ready to take his family and run away.
But when he arrived at the door of the cram school to pick up the child, he unexpectedly saw Xin Tong, the daughter of the group boss who was supposed to be unconscious and unable to move and whom no one had looked for anywhere else, standing in front of him with a normal expression, as if she had come back to life.
Gao Zhengguang knew that everything was over.
His face turned pale and he sat down on the ground.
…
"He Xiangrong's relatives thought your escape wasn't a big deal, that you wouldn't have gotten far if you'd been drugged. But when we searched the square for half an hour and couldn't find you, I knew something was wrong."
"I wanted to inform He Xiangrong, but they were reluctant because they were afraid of being scolded by He Xiangrong."
"On the phone, they kept covering up the facts and shirking responsibility. They told He Xiangrong that they would definitely find him. They said that he had been drugged and that he couldn't get far. They would definitely bring him back today."
"He Xiangrong has lost his mind. I've worked with him for almost ten years, and I've never seen him so crazy. His body is broken, and he doesn't care about anything anymore. He just wants to kill you and get revenge on you. He has made such a big plan, and he is determined to take you back to that villa. Even now, all the people, equipment, and medicine in the villa have not been evacuated. He won't cry until he sees the coffin, and he has been waiting for us to take you back."
"He's crazy, but I'm not. I know you must have run away. This whole thing is likely to fail."
"So I found an excuse to separate from those people and wanted to come back to pack my things. But my wife said that the child was still in class and the cram school also had student and parent information. If I left early, it would be obvious. That's why I was delayed for a while."
"I didn't expect..." He smiled bitterly, his face pale, and didn't say anything else.
His wife was crying breathlessly beside him.
"Aren't you a company executive? Don't you earn nearly a million dollars a year?"
"How could you ruin your good job like this? My child is going to junior high school next year, and I just barely managed to get that key student spot. I have mortgages, car loans, and money for the elderly and children. There's nothing I can't afford. If you go to jail, what do you want us to do?"
Gao Zhengguang sat on the ground as if his soul had been sucked out.
The next second, he suddenly raised his head and stared at Xin Tong.
The look in his eyes was so strange that Xin Tong blinked and felt a chill on her back for some unknown reason. She took two steps back involuntarily.
But unexpectedly, at that moment, Gao Zhengguang struggled to get up and rushed straight towards Xin Tong!
The distance between the two was close, and he was extremely fast, rushing in front of Xin Tong in a few seconds.
Xin Tong's eyes widened instantly, she didn't react at all, her feet rooted to the ground.
At this moment, her arm was suddenly held by a big hand.
Then he was pulled back, staggered a few steps, and fell into a tall embrace.
Driven by inertia, she nearly fell. The man's arms were strong, and she was pulled around. Her face was facing his chest, and the moment her cheek brushed against his coat, her nose was filled with his faint scent.
Her fingers frantically pinched the hem of his shirt, trying to keep her balance in panic.
When she raised her head again in confusion, she could only see the man's sharp jawline and the light golden hair hanging down on his temples.
Jiang Chongyan held her in his arms with his left hand, turned around and stood between her and Gao Zhengguang, and the next second he raised his right foot and kicked her hard.
His movements were decisive, efficient, and powerful, without any hesitation.
With one kick, Gao Zhengguang was forced to kneel on the ground and rolled half a circle before stopping, falling to the ground with a scream.
Jiang Chongyan said nothing, took two steps forward and raised his foot to kick again.
Gao Zhengguang's wife screamed nearby. He paused, his shoes scraping against the ground with a dull thud.
"You...you are the one from the square..."
Gao Zhengguang fell to the ground, his eyes wide open as he stared at the young man in front of him. Tall, with blond hair, he was unmistakable.
So that's how it is. It turns out that Xin Tong disappeared right under their noses.
Gao Zhengguang looked up in panic, meeting Jiang Chongyan's cold, downcast eyes. He wanted to ask, "Who are you?" but when the words reached his lips, he felt that they were meaningless.
He coughed twice and lowered his head dejectedly.
When he raised his head again, he was already in tears and began to repent.
*
With Gao Zhengguang as a witness, everything that followed went smoothly.
When the police came to the door, He Xiangrong was indeed sitting in the villa openly waiting for Xin Tong to be kidnapped.
Quan Li stumbled over, and Xin Tong rarely saw her so flustered. Her face was filled with self-blame. She hadn't considered this when Xin Tong asked her for the employee information. It was such a big deal, and she, the CEO's secretary, had only just learned about it now.
They had hired the best legal team in Wucheng, and with witnesses and evidence, even He Xiangrong had confessed. Most importantly, the victim was the daughter of the Morikawa Group.
Everything went smoothly after that.
In the conference room of Morikawa Group's headquarters, Xin Tong finally met his father.
In the week since she returned to China, she had hardly had any direct communication with He Chuan except for the time when she announced her intention to acquire Kelly at the Empire Hotel.
The father and daughter finally got to see each other, but they didn't expect it to be because of something like this.
Xin Tong handed He Chuan all the documents the police had verified, and even included a list of accusations filed by over a dozen female employees, including Ji Ning, the marketing manager, and an intern who had been with the company for less than a year. All of them had been sexually harassed by He Xiangrong to varying degrees.
After numerous accusations, He Xiangrong was finally removed from his position.
All of his former subordinates were laid off in large numbers, and the entire Kelly senior management was almost completely replaced, resulting in many vacant positions.
He Chuan looked unhappy and stared at her.
"With He Xiangrong gone, a large number of people are missing."
"Don't forget, you've only been here a week. The entire company doesn't rely on you to run."
"Do you understand the business of managing a company?"
Xin Tong snorted and raised his chin.
"I don't understand, but someone does."
"I just need to pay salaries to those who understand."
The next second, she turned around and said loudly in front of all the senior executives in the conference room,
"I am now appointing Ji Ning, the Marketing Manager, to be promoted to CEO of Kelly Company."
