"The young master of the Xu family is not someone to be trifled with. I wonder what will happen to Jiang Yuan after this."
“Jiang Yuan knows President Ji and Yang Cheng, so Xu Zhe and Han Wen shouldn’t dare to touch her.”
“Old Liu, you’re wrong about that. Jiang Yuan only knows them; they’re not close. If they were, why didn’t Ji Lü protect her when she was being cyberbullied? Don’t forget that Jiang Yuan was working at their subsidiary back then. If Ji Lü had been willing to help, Jiang Yuan definitely wouldn’t have been fired or kicked out of the company.”
“I just heard Madam Yang call Jiang Yuan her benefactor. If something happens to her, Ji Lü won’t help, but Yang Cheng will surely help her, right? And Xiang Xinyang, she seems to have a good relationship with Jiang Yuan. The Xiang family is known for spoiling their daughter, so she definitely won’t let it go.” The one called Old Liu spoke up.
Just because Jiang Yuan knows so many people, he doesn't believe Xu Zhe and the others would dare to touch her again.
“Yang Cheng can help, but... Yang Cheng is ultimately a scholar, not a businessman. He has never seen the dirty tricks of businessmen. How can he fight against Xu Zhe and the others? The Xiang family is indeed capable, but the Xiang family wouldn't be so stupid as to offend several families for the sake of one of Xiang Xinyang's friends.”
"If even brothers can abandon each other in a critical moment, what about friends?"
"Old Liu, you should know this better than I do, after all, you've been through it all."
The middle-aged man in front of him spoke, looking at Liu Xing meaningfully.
Liu Xing's expression changed slightly.
Noticing that Liu Xing's expression was not good, the man chuckled dryly, "Old Liu, I was just joking, don't be angry with me."
"Look, you've made it through now, and your future is bright," the man continued.
Liu Xing has two brothers; he is the eldest, and he has a younger brother.
The family originally had considerable assets, but after his father passed away, his brother plotted against Liu Xing in order to get a larger share of the inheritance.
Liu Xing was foolish; he believed everything his younger brother said and fell right into his brother's trap.
Not only did his brother take all his family's assets, but his brother also cut off one of his fingers.
However, Liu Xing is also hardworking and capable, with a strong sense of never giving up.
He didn't get discouraged after losing a finger, but started from scratch.
To date, the company is operating well and making a considerable profit.
However, his brother's situation will always be a hurdle he can't get over.
He didn't bring it up intentionally, but Liu Xing had already suffered a loss once, yet he still thought so highly of human nature, and he wanted to teach him a lesson.
If he puts aside his kindness and thinks of the world in a more negative light, he can avoid suffering a lot.
He also admired Liu Xing and genuinely considered him a friend.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have reminded him.
“Old Gao, I know you mean well, but… I still believe they will help Jiang Yuan.” Liu Xing looked at the middle-aged man in front of him and said, his eyes firm, insisting on his own idea.
"You're just so stubborn," the man said, shaking his head as he looked at Liu Xing.
"Excuse me, you two were just talking about the young master of the Xu family and Jiang Yuan? May I ask what's going on?" Just as the two were chatting, a rich, magnetic, and pleasant voice rang out. Liu Xing and the other looked up and saw Jiang Ningyuan blocking their way.
Compared to Jiang Ningyuan, they were like turtles, being shorter than him.
Damn it, what's the use of being so tall!
Jiang Ningyuan had a smile on his face, looking very approachable.
However, Liu Xing and the middle-aged man saw a hint of anger on his face.
Liu Xing and the middle-aged man exchanged glances, and Liu Xing briefly recounted to Jiang Ningyuan what had happened at the banquet before they arrived.
Jiang Ningyuan frowned slightly.
He sensed something was off when he and Liu Yu arrived. He initially thought it was just his imagination, since it was Jiang Yusi's birthday party and they should at least give the hostess some face.
Unexpectedly...
The troublemakers were the protagonist and her friends.
Since Jiang Yusi invited them, she must take full responsibility for it.
Letting them make a scene without intervening is tantamount to condoning their actions.
Jiang's mother and Jiang Yuanhao and others did not stop them, which shows...
They shared the same idea as Jiang Yusi: to embarrass Jiang Yuan.
That's roughly how it is.
“Mr. Jiang, we were just having a casual chat in private, please don’t take it to heart.”
The middle-aged man spoke.
They weren't the type to cause trouble; they could have easily let it slide and avoided offending anyone.
But after seeing Jiang Ningyuan's eyes, they couldn't help but confess everything.
Now, I feel a little regretful.
They didn't expect Jiang Ningyuan to talk to them or ask them questions.
"Did the two of you say anything just now?" Jiang Ningyuan asked, feigning ignorance.
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man understood the meaning and nodded repeatedly: "Hello, Mr. Jiang. I have long admired your name. I would like to offer you a toast."
After saying that, the middle-aged man raised his wine glass, clinked it against Jiang Ningyuan's, and then drank it all in one gulp.
Afterwards, the middle-aged man pulled Liu Xing away.
Liu Xing is an idiot, but he isn't.
After exchanging only a few words with Jiang Ningyuan, he could tell that he was no pushover.
As for his relationship with Jiang Yuan...
Ha, they personally gave gifts in front of everyone, and the gifts were porcelain dolls they made themselves. What kind of relationship could they be?
It's either unrequited love or mutual attraction...
No matter which one, he would help Jiang Yuan.
"Old Liu, it seems you were right this time," the middle-aged man said, looking at Liu Xing beside him.
"Old Gao, why are you pulling me away? I forgot to ask Mr. Jiang for an autograph; my daughter really likes him," Liu Xing said, somewhat displeased.
