That's right.
Grandpa Jiang also has an only son, who is 40 years old this year. He married into the family in City A some years ago and currently lives with his wife's family.
Back then, when Grandpa Jiang found Jiang Ning, he originally intended for his son and daughter-in-law to raise her.
Unexpectedly, neither her son nor daughter-in-law wanted to raise Jiang Ning, saying that hair grows on its own and children are born by themselves, and that no matter how much love someone else gives her, she can't truly raise another person's child.
But Grandpa Jiang couldn't bear to send the child to an orphanage, so he raised him himself until now.
"Okay." Jiang Ning nodded.
In the original owner's memory, she did not have a deep impression of her eldest uncle and aunt.
She lived with her grandfather in the countryside until she was fifteen. Her uncle and aunt would not return for several years at a time. Later, she came to City A with her grandfather and only saw her uncle and aunt once or twice.
After dinner, Jiang Ning continued assembling the computer, working until 9 p.m. before she finally had time to check her phone.
She opened WeChat and found that ten strangers had added her as a friend.
Jiang Ning then remembered the important matter at hand.
Jiang Ning clicked to verify and approved everyone's requests. She then created a small group chat and added everyone to it. Her first post was a self-introduction: "Hello everyone, I'm Jiang Ning. Looking forward to working with you all (handshake/emoji)."
[Hello Ms. Jiang, this is Amy. Please feel free to contact me via WeChat if you need anything in the future.]
【Hello Ms. Jiang, I'm Lucy...】
【Hello Ms. Jiang, this is Mei Jie…】
What followed was a round of self-introductions.
After greeting everyone, Jiang Ning sent the tasks that needed to be completed to the group chat, saying, "Just hand them in to me before 4 PM tomorrow. Thank you all."
At the same time.
Inside the cubicles on the third floor of the game room.
Amy swung her chair over to her colleague next to her. "Lucy, who exactly is this Ms. Jiang? Does she really have the ability to pull our company back from the brink of collapse?"
Lucy took a sip of her iced Americano, squinting her eyes. "It's really hard to say."
Seeing her two colleagues discussing this, Qinzi immediately leaned over and whispered, "Have you heard? General Manager Zhang and General Manager Li have terminated their contracts with our company. Not only are they gone, but even General Manager Xie from the 3A project department has been poached by the Cheng Group next door. I think our company is completely finished this time!"
Lucy and Amy stared wide-eyed at the same time, "What! President Xie is gone?"
Xie Huaijin was an extremely talented man, a pillar of the 3A project team. His departure is a fatal blow to both Jidong Games and Wang Shengli.
"Shh! Shh! Shh!" Kotoko immediately put her index finger to her lips. "Keep your voices down!"
Lucy swallowed hard. "Mr. Xie really left?"
Kotoko nodded. "Absolutely true."
Lucy sighed, "Our company still had a glimmer of hope, but with President Xie gone, it's completely hopeless! The job market is so competitive these days. If I lose this job, where am I going to find work partners like you?"
Amy looked at Qinzi with some suspicion and said, "This is too sudden. When I went to the fifth floor yesterday, President Xie was still working! Are you sure you're not mistaken?"
Qinzi looked around. "My best friend is President Xie's assistant, and she's the one who told me about this! Don't think it's sudden, even she was surprised. President Xie's departure came without warning. He was working yesterday, and this morning he suddenly called to say he wasn't coming! To be honest, our Chairman Wang is still lacking in tactics. When he poached President Xie, he should have signed a huge compensation agreement with him! Now look at him, he just packs his bags and leaves!"
Amy frowned slightly. "This President Xie is so disloyal. He just leaves like that. What is Chairman Wang supposed to do?"
"This can't be entirely blamed on President Xie. He's also working for Chairman Wang, and now that the company is failing, he can't put all his eggs in one basket." Lucy sighed. "I hope Miss Jiang can live up to Chairman Wang's expectations and reclaim the glory that belongs to our Jidong Games!"
Qinzi continued, "Come on, I advise you not to pin your hopes on Miss Jiang."
"Why?" Lucy asked.
Amy looked at her with curiosity as well.
Qinzi continued, "I happened to see Miss Jiang when I went to see Chairman Wang yesterday! Guess what? Miss Jiang looked very young, like a high school student. She was quite good-looking, the kind of person who could be a pretty face in the entertainment industry! I think Chairman Wang is just grasping at straws in his desperation."
How can a pretty face understand games?
Isn't this a joke?
Upon hearing this, Amy and Lucy instantly lost faith in the legendary Miss Jiang.
It seems so.
This time, I really can't save my heart!
The seventh floor.
Wang Shengli was standing by the window making a phone call.
Perhaps because he was too anxious, a layer of sweat covered his forehead.
Beep beep beep--
The call was answered very quickly.
"Hello--"
Wang Shengli got straight to the point, "Ms. Jiang, are you busy right now? I have something very important to tell you."
"Go on," Jiang Ning said succinctly.
Wang Shengli continued, "Our plan may have to be postponed. Xie Huaijin from the 3A project department has been poached by the Cheng Group, and I can't find anyone to replace him for the time being."
Finally, Wang Shengli couldn't help but curse, "That bastard Xie Huaijin, he's not even human! Back then, he was just a nobody who had just started playing games abroad. If it weren't for me, he wouldn't be where he is today! But he's so ungrateful, betraying me at this crucial moment!"
All the people knew was that Xie Huaijin was someone he had poached from abroad.
Little did people know that Xie Huaijin was just an unknown nobody abroad back then. In the early stages of his business, the two of them explored things together, and it was only through this experience that Xie Huaijin achieved his current success.
Because of their shared upbringing, Wang Shengli trusted Xie Huaijin implicitly, and the two treated each other like brothers. Therefore, he did not sign any agreement with Xie Huaijin, which gave Xie Huaijin the opportunity to betray him.
Wang Shengli grew angrier the more he thought about it, wishing he could stand in front of Xie Huaijin right now and beat that heartless ingrate to a pulp!
