Chapter 262 Dispelling Evil Qi
Jiang Ran spoke calmly, yet every word she uttered hit the nail on the head.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuechen's eyes darkened, and his expression became inscrutable. He knew that what Jiang Ran said was true.
Even if I manage to resolve the current troubles, who can guarantee that the collateral branches won't overstep their authority and try to seize power in the future?
Seeing his hesitation, Jiang Ran sighed inwardly and then whispered to persuade him, "You are the only heir of the Jiang family. You are qualified and capable of managing the company well. This incident was just an accident. You were tricked by someone who didn't know what was good for you. It's impossible to guard against such a thing."
"So you feel no remorse. Besides, I don't understand company management, nor do I know how to make good use of people."
"If I really become the president of Jiang's Group, those people who are eyeing this position will have nothing better to do than focus on my mistakes."
His words also carried a hint of self-deprecation.
Whether she was originally suited for this or not, the capable should take the lead. There's no need for her to insist on trying to get a piece of the pie, which would only cause her a lot of resentment.
Seeing that she understood things clearly, Jiang Yuechen's eyes flickered slightly, and he also began to reflect on the feasibility of his suggestion.
His brow furrowed slightly, a hint of hesitation flashing across his face: "But I..."
“No buts.” Jiang Ran raised an eyebrow and interrupted directly.
Then, he looked at Jiang Yuechen with a serious expression, his eyes darkening slightly, and said in a low voice, "Although I am not good at running a company, I do have a way to cure your chronic illness."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuechen's expression froze for a moment. After realizing what he had said, his pupils contracted sharply, and he exclaimed in surprise, "What did you say?!"
His tone was full of disbelief.
He had been disabled since childhood and had sought out many famous doctors both at home and abroad, but to no avail. He had already given up all hope, but Jiang Ran's sudden words still made him unable to suppress the excitement in his heart.
Seeing his surprise, Jiang Ran smiled slightly and slowly said, "If your body is healed, why would you need to step down?"
"Those people who are jumping around recklessly will have to shut up eventually."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuechen's eyes flashed with surprise. He hadn't expected Jiang Ran to be able to see the situation so clearly.
Although he held a high position, those behind him could not find fault with him, so they would make sarcastic remarks about his health, and the influence of the Five Elements made him feel ashamed.
"Can...can it work?" Jiang Yuechen's eyes flashed with anticipation, and when he spoke again, he was surprised and even stuttered a little.
"I'm 90% sure," Jiang Ran said slowly, then pursed her lips and explained, "I've been keeping this in mind for a while now. I've been observing your surroundings and your internal condition recently, which is why it took some time."
"As for the remaining 10%, it depends on whether you cooperate."
After speaking, Jiang Ran looked at Jiang Yuechen with a smile in her eyes, raised an eyebrow, and asked, "What do you think?"
Jiang Yuechen knew Jiang Ran's abilities, and from the moment she said those words, he completely trusted her. His eyes suddenly lit up, and he couldn't hide his excitement as he softly agreed.
The two hit it off immediately, and Jiang Ran went to the company that very day to take a stroll around and carefully observe the feng shui of the surroundings.
When the employees saw her sudden visit, they assumed she was coming for an inspection and all became extremely alert.
After Jiang Ran left, everyone looked at each other, a look of surprise flashing across their faces.
"Is this the legendary Miss Jiang?" someone asked in surprise.
"Didn't you see President Jiang accompanying you? Who else has such influence?"
People started discussing it.
Back in the CEO's office, Jiang Yuechen immediately asked, "Is there a problem?"
Jiang Ran's expression was cold and she nodded slightly before slowly replying, "There is a sharp corner of a building facing the company's main entrance, which is considered inauspicious. Furthermore, there is also exposed water, etc."
"A series of such incidents combined are most likely to result in bloodshed."
Jiang Yuechen listened to her talkative speech, his face full of doubt, but he understood her last sentence.
Just as he was about to ask, Jiang Ran's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "To resolve the company's feng shui problems, we may need to undertake major renovations. However, for the time being, we can place a copper gourd or the Five Emperors Mantra in an auspicious location to counteract the recurring crises caused by the Heavenly Slash Sha."
"As for the home, you only need to prepare a Taishan stone according to local conditions, which can ward off evil and calamity."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuechen nodded repeatedly, then called his assistant in and gave him some instructions.
When his assistant saw that he had suddenly become superstitious and acquired such metaphysical items, a look of surprise flashed across his face, but he did not ask any further questions.
After he left, Jiang Yuechen's eyes flickered slightly, and he suddenly chuckled softly.
Jiang Ran looked puzzled and turned to look at him, only to see him slowly say, "If this had happened before, and someone had told me that the feng shui was bad, I would have thought he was a charlatan!"
"I never imagined that I would have to rush to find a solution now."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ran's lips curled up slightly, and she echoed, "Times have changed. Even if it's just a little bit beneficial to your health and fortune, we should try our best."
"Hmm." Jiang Yuechen nodded slowly, then looked hesitant and asked, "Aran, where did you learn these skills? I thought you were just faking it, but I didn't expect you to actually have something!"
As he spoke, his face was full of surprise.
When Jiang Ran saw him suddenly ask why, she pursed her lips slightly and casually explained, "It was a coincidence..."
Seeing that she was unwilling to say more, Jiang Yuechen did not ask any further questions.
"Oh, right!" Jiang Ran hurriedly interrupted his thoughts, then changed the subject and whispered a reminder: "Besides the evil energy in the surrounding environment, your legs have been weak for many years, and the yin energy has accumulated in one place, so I have to use acupuncture to help you expel it."
Her words were cryptic, and Jiang Yuechen assumed that Yin Qi was nothing more than dampness, but he never expected that Jiang Ran was actually referring to malevolent energy.
His health was deteriorating, which had to be taken seriously.
"Okay." Jiang Yuechen replied in a low voice, and then slowly took off his shirt as Jiang Ran instructed. It was the first time he had been naked in front of a woman, and a blush flashed across his face. He felt a little uncomfortable.
Jiang Ran, however, did not care at all. She gently twisted the silver needle, and spiritual energy surged and gathered in her hand, with a wisp of silver light condensing on the needle.
Then, with a slight flick of his wrist, he directly stabbed at the acupoints on his body.
Jiang Yuechen felt a warm current flow through his body as the silver needles were inserted, coursing through his limbs and bones, changing the yin energy in his body, and making him feel comfortable all over.
Jiang Ran's expression was cold and stern. She raised the needle and lowered it, and it took her fifteen minutes to finish the acupuncture treatment.
As the needles were removed, I felt my hands go weak and my whole body felt powerless; a look of exhaustion flashed across my face.
While it is said to be acupuncture, the real purpose is to use spiritual energy to expel the evil energy from the body.
The spiritual energy was consumed too much in a short time, and the body could hardly support it.
Jiang Yuechen, however, felt refreshed and invigorated. Turning his head, he saw that Jiang Ran's face looked unwell, so he quickly stepped forward and asked softly, "Ran, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ran waved her hand and casually replied, "It's nothing, I've just been busy all day and I'm a bit too tired."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuechen's face flashed with guilt: "It's my fault. If it weren't for your running around for me, this wouldn't have happened..."
Jiang Ran sensed that he was about to continue apologizing, so she quickly changed the subject and interrupted him: "It's okay. Let's get back to the point. Don't forget to consecrate the things I just mentioned after you buy them. Only after consecrating them can you avoid the invasion of evil spirits."
"Okay." Jiang Yuechen nodded slightly and replied.
Jiang Ran felt a wave of fatigue wash over her. After giving a few brief instructions, she excused herself and said she had to leave. Jiang Yuechen wanted to call the family doctor to examine her, but she interrupted him, so he had no choice but to send the driver to take her home.
Throughout the journey, Jiang Ran kept her eyes closed, feeling somewhat dazed. She didn't know how much time had passed, but she heard the driver's low voice reminding her.
"Miss Jiang, we've arrived."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ran suddenly opened her eyes and replied in a low voice, "Okay, thank you for your hard work."
After saying that, she got out of the car. Her legs went weak and she stumbled. She looked for support and saw the driver's worried expression. Jiang Ran waved her hand and explained softly, "It's nothing, my leg just went numb."
Upon hearing this, the driver did not suspect anything and watched her enter the main hall before driving away.
Jiang Ran felt weak and powerless due to the excessive damage to her spiritual power. Her consciousness was also somewhat confused. After struggling to walk back to her room, she collapsed onto the bed. Her head was dizzy and her vision went dark as she fell into a coma.
Si Zuochen and Si Youlin stayed at the old house to visit the old man. Si Yanxiao heard from the butler that Jiang Ran had returned, but she was nowhere to be seen.
