Chapter 80 The Truth
Jiang Yan looked ahead with his eyes wide open and spoke in a flat voice.
"You're a smart one."
But, if it were just like this...
Gu Miaomiao clenched the contract in her hand and asked again.
"Could it be that you already knew Wang Jingchi's feelings for Wu Yiran, so... this is just a trick?"
Jiang Yanbai spoke sarcastically.
"I'm just a heartless person, how could I have anticipated all this?"
Gu Miaomiao placed her hands on her knees, with her fingertips curled up.
He said he had no heart.
But he clearly came to stand up for Wu Yiran.
It seems that he has a sharp tongue but a soft heart.
As soon as this thought came to her mind, she ruthlessly suppressed it.
impossible.
How could Jiang Yanbai be so kind?
She raised her eyes, and her gaze became sharp again.
"You're using Wu Yiran's scandal to blackmail Wang's contract, right?"
The corners of Jiang Yanbai's lips, which had just been raised, straightened instantly.
He scoffed.
"Since I am this kind of person in your heart, what else is there to say?"
After that, there was no conversation along the way.
Soon, the car stopped at the door.
The two went directly to Wang Jingchi's office.
Pushing the door open, Jiang Yanbai spoke first: "Boss Wang, are you busy?"
"We shouldn't have disturbed Mr. Wang by coming here uninvited."
As he spoke, he naturally pulled the chair in front of the table and sat down, crossing his legs, his aura fully released.
Gu Miaomiao also sat down next to him and put the contract on the table.
Wang Jingchi turned half a circle in the leather seat, his movements a little stiff.
He raised his hand and gently pushed the pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his nose, and a vicious look flashed in his eyes behind the lenses.
"Of course not."
His voice was a little hoarse.
"Besides, I have something to talk to you about."
Gu Miaomiao tapped the table with her fingertips and her eyes fell on Wang Jingchi's face.
"Boss Wang wants to see us, what's going on?"
Wang Jingchi leaned forward with a cold look in his eyes.
"Are you setting me up? The online media is flooding with opinions, all directed at me. I don't believe you're not behind this!"
He gritted his teeth, his voice filled with anger.
Jiang Yanbai smiled.
"If Mr. Wang hadn't been doing those shameful things himself, how could he have been caught on camera? Besides, didn't you check if there were any cameras around before you took action?"
He leaned lazily back in his chair, looking as if he was enjoying a good show.
Gu Miaomiao sneered in her heart.
It turned out that Jiang Yanbai never showed mercy to anyone.
She wanted to see how serious this dog-eat-dog fight would get today.
Wang Jingchi was breathing rapidly, his chest heaving violently, and his face turned ashen with anger.
"These are issues that should be handled by your PR department! If you can't handle them, I'm terminating my contract with you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, before Gu Miaomiao could react, Jiang Yanbai had already taken the blue contract away from her hand.
It fell heavily in the middle of the table with a loud bang.
"Isn't it me who should be telling you this?"
He had a deep voice and every word was precious.
Gu Miaomiao glanced over and felt that this man was ruthless from head to toe.
The poor little thing that was at the mercy of others before is now filled with only hostility.
She was a little confused. Who was he helping?
Or will no one be spared?
Wang Jingchi glanced at the contract and snorted in disdain.
"Are you trying to pull some stunt again? Threatening me with benefits, right? Do you think I'll back down like that?"
The corners of Jiang Yanbai's lips curled up slightly, and the curve was extremely dangerous.
"The contract clearly states that if your group's brand effectiveness declines due to any reason on its own, we can unilaterally terminate the cooperation at any time, and you will be fully responsible for the liquidated damages."
After he finished speaking, he pushed the contract in front of Wang Jingchi and touched the cover with his index finger.
"Don't play dumb. Look carefully. This is your signature, and it's an official document stamped with the company's red seal. There's no room for falsification."
The room fell silent, with only the rustling of papers and the man's heavy breathing as the sounds continued.
"When was this clause added?! Why didn't anyone inform me?!"
Wang Jingchi stood up suddenly, his eyes bloodshot as he stared at Jiang Yanbai, as if he was going to pounce on him and tear his face off in the next second.
Gu Miaomiao frowned slightly and subconsciously looked at Jiang Yanbai.
She remembered that a supplementary meeting had indeed taken place, but the content... could it have been secretly changed by him?
How many tricks does this man have up his sleeve?
Jiang Yanbai was calm and composed, playing with his pen and speaking slowly.
"You signed and sealed the supplementary agreement yourself at the meeting. Is there anything else you can deny?"
His tone was calm, yet breathtaking.
After randomly flipping through several pages of the contract, Wang Jingchi finally spotted the small print. He froze for a moment, then angrily slammed the document back onto the table.
"This is a trap!"
"I'm going to sue you!"
"tell?"
Jiang Yanbai raised his eyebrows and sneered.
"You are welcome to file a lawsuit at any time, but it is recommended that you ask a lawyer first to find out who is in breach of contract and who should pay the compensation in this situation."
Wang Jingchi still asked with concern: "When did it happen?"
Jiang Yanbai raised the corner of his mouth and his eyes were cold.
"It doesn't matter when this happened. You just need to know that you should pay us two million in liquidated damages according to the contract."
Wang Jingchi tapped his fingers on the table, making a dull sound.
"It's only two million, how much did I think it was? At worst, I'll just compensate you."
He looked up at Gu Miaomiao with resentment in his eyes.
"I only lost two million. How much did you lose? Miss Gu should know this clearly, right?"
Gu Miaomiao chuckled, a hint of irony appearing on her lips.
She slowly withdrew her gaze.
"Of course I know, but the truth behind the Angel Wings incident will also be made public."
Wang Jingchi's face darkened and he stared at Gu Miaomiao with fierce eyes.
"You dare?"
Gu Miaomiao stood up straight and looked over without any retreat.
"Do you think I dare? I was just worried about the contract between you and Mr. Jiang before, so I couldn't use it. Now I have the opportunity."
Her tone was calm as she finished this sentence.
Over the years, she had grown accustomed to being pushed to the forefront. Since there was no way out, she could only advance cautiously and trample everyone under her feet.
Wang Jingchi gritted his teeth and slammed the table before standing up.
"What do you want to do? Let me tell you, my Wang Group is so powerful, why would I be afraid of a secretary like you? If you dare to threaten me, I will definitely make you live a life worse than death!"
Gu Miaomiao stood up slowly and confronted him.
She raised her head slightly and looked into the man's scarlet eyes.
"I just want everyone to understand the truth behind those touching stories. There's nothing wrong with that, right?"
The anger in his chest burned even more fiercely, but he had nowhere to vent it, and a low growl got stuck in his throat.
Jiang Yanbai leaned lazily on the back of the chair, one hand on the armrest, and looked at the two of them as if he was watching a show.
His eyebrows raised with interest.
