When Jiang's father saw Cheng Yanzheng's expression, a hint of sympathy flashed in his eyes.
He's a man, and he's best at empathizing with other men.
Cheng Yanzheng is a good catch; if he puts his mind to it, he's sure to find a socialite heiress to marry.
If it weren't for the cooperative project between the two families, he wouldn't have married Jiang Tian, and he wouldn't have suffered such a heavy blow.
Who can accept that their wife already has a child with someone else?
Anyway, even the thought of it made Jiang's father unable to bear it.
"Yan Zheng, don't worry. I know this was the Jiang family's mistake. I'll give them another percentage point off the profit. Go back and talk to your parents properly, and tell them not to be too impulsive. Let's make money peacefully."
Cheng Yanzheng sat there blankly for a long time before raising his head. His voice was hoarse: "You know my parents' temper. If they find out this fact, they will definitely take their anger out on the Jiang family, and maybe both of our projects will have to be suspended."
Mr. Jiang became anxious: "The construction schedule is so tight, how can we just stop it? You should talk to your parents properly."
“I know. I'll tell them, so you don't need to worry about it.”
Cheng Yanzheng's tone was steady, which reassured Jiang's father.
"Have you gotten in touch with Gao Yaohong?" Cheng Yanzheng then brought up another matter.
Mr. Jiang nodded: "Yes, it was he who took the photos of Jiang Tian that made me decide to investigate. I never expected the truth to be so disgusting. I have truly let your family down."
“Uncle, you should know that the Cheng family’s assets have long been divided up, and most of them are currently in my hands. My grandfather forced my father to sign an agreement that, apart from the foundation’s portion, Gao Yaohong will not receive a single penny of the money.”
"But greed knows no bounds. While you were busy with your work, Gao Yaohong deceived your daughter, took her on a world tour, and started a relationship with her, all with the aim of becoming your son-in-law. He wants to enter the Jiang family's group, first swallow up the Jiang family, and then make an enemy of me."
Cheng Yanzheng's words left Jiang's father speechless: "How is this possible?"
“Nothing is impossible. Gao Yaohong has been planning all this for a long time. I had someone investigate him before. He currently has no assets under his name and got addicted to gambling after a trip to Macau. No amount of money can satisfy a gambler's addiction. He gave you this photo simply to take the opportunity to surrender to you.”
Having understood the unspoken meaning in Cheng Yanzheng's words, Jiang's father's face turned ashen.
"He lied to Jiang Ying? Jiang Ying's boyfriend who traveled the world with her was Gao Yaohong?"
"Yes. He also tricked Jiang Ying out of some of her money to pay off her debts. He said he was going to help her invest, but actually he couldn't pay off his gambling debts, so he rushed back to China."
"You bastard, I'm calling Jiang Ying right now!"
Cheng Yanzheng shook his head: "It's just treating the symptoms, not the root cause. If you're comfortable with this, leave it to me. I'll help you deal with Gao Yaohong. But you must keep your mouth shut and never tell Gao Yaohong that Jiang Tian has a child. He might use this as an excuse to attack the Jiang family and set a trap for you. These kinds of things are all too common in the business world."
Upon hearing this, Jiang's father thought it made perfect sense.
Many people set traps for others at first, then act as saviors later, completely fooling people.
Gao Yaohong sent him this photo, wasn't he up to something?
Compared to Cheng Yanzheng, Gao Yaohong is nothing. Father Jiang admires capable young people and has no liking for Gao Yaohong at all.
"In that case, I'll listen to you. What do you plan to do?"
Cheng Yanzheng's eyes were somewhat deep: "The Jiang family is holding back. I'll do some preparatory work first, and I'll also make arrangements with Jiang Tian's side. I'll stall my parents' side for now. As for Gao Yaohong, let's ignore everyone. Let him make his own moves first. Once he makes a mistake, I'll deal with him immediately."
Mr. Jiang agreed wholeheartedly: "Then I'll stop Jiang Ying's card later and have her return to China immediately."
Cheng Yanzheng did not express his opinion; he did not care about others.
Since the two had reached a consensus, Jiang's father parted ways with Cheng Yanzheng amicably.
Before leaving, he told Cheng Yanzheng to take revenge on Jiang Tian however he wanted, without worrying about saving face for him.
An unfaithful woman deserves to be torn to pieces.
After Jiang's father left, Cheng Yanzheng sat in his original seat and didn't move for a long time.
After finally calming down, Cheng Yanzheng called Jiang Tian, his hands still trembling slightly.
Unfortunately, no one answered.
Cheng Yanzheng turned off his phone, slowly stood up, looking extremely heavy-hearted.
"Assistant Du, book me a ticket to the United States."
Upon hearing Cheng Yanzheng's instructions, Du Baiwei's first reaction was that the president was in a bad mood.
But seeing his destination, Du Baiwei couldn't help but feel uneasy.
She knew that his wife had spent a lot of time in the United States.
She was professional and quickly replied, "Yes, Mr. President."
In the afternoon, Cheng Yanzheng boarded a plane bound for Country M.
Jiang Tian saw his call after picking up Jiang Tang from school.
She called the number back.
The call was not connected to Cheng Yanzheng.
Jiang Tian sent Cheng Yanzheng a message: "Is there something wrong? I just saw it."
Cheng Yanzheng, who had just gotten off the plane, turned on his phone and saw a message from Jiang Tian.
Without hesitation, he made the call.
"Hello." Jiang Tian's voice on the other end still carried a hint of laughter.
"I'm in the US now. Are you free? I'd like to come see you."
Jiang Tian hesitated for a moment: "Are you playing a prank on me?"
No, I'm at the airport.
Jiang Tian took a moment to react before saying, "Which airport? Wait a moment, I'll come pick you up now."
Cheng Yanzheng gave the name of the airport.
He knew that Jiang Tian was in this city.
About an hour later, Cheng Yanzheng met Jiang Tian, who had come to pick him up.
Jiang Tian looked very happy, her eyes smiling: "Why did you come here? Did you want to give me a surprise?"
Cheng Yanzheng tried to force a smile, but couldn't manage a single one.
"What's wrong? You seem to be in a bad mood."
"There are too many people here, let's find another place to talk."
Cheng Yanzheng tried hard to restrain himself and said to her.
Jiang Tian noticed that something was wrong with his mood, and the smile on her lips gradually faded.
"Okay, let's go to my place then."
Jiang Tian drove, and Cheng Yanzheng sat in the passenger seat. The two did not exchange a single word the entire time.
Cheng Yanzheng saw the house where Jiang Tian lived. It was beautiful and artistic, just like her personality.
Jiang Tian asked him, "What would you like to drink?"
Cheng Yanzheng shook his head.
When he arrived at her territory, Cheng Yanzheng did not feel constrained; he was just a little confused.
I feel very lost.
Why is this happening?
The two had a great relationship, a time-limited romance, a perfect experience.
But if your lover hides a major secret from you, can the relationship continue?
Can love last if trust is lost?
