Chapter 186 - 186: Such A Captivating Dancer
Jiang Minglang thought that Yang Hao must be quite capable and have his ways to be able to sit on the upper echelons of a listed company.
Moreover, it would not be good if someone found out that he had personally dealt with Jiang Jingchen.
“Okay, but I would like to test your ability first. Help me deal with an immediate matter related to Jiang Jingchen.”
“The man downstairs?” Yang Hao asked.
“Yes.”
Yang Hao chuckled. He had on gold-rimmed glasses and the mannerisms of a typical elite. He was also highly educated and very smart. It would be quite interesting to see what kind surprises he would bring.
“No problem. It’s a small matter.” Yang Hao went downstairs calmly. “I’ll go deal with it now.”
Jiang Minglang was quite perplexed over how he should deal with the matter, but Yang Hao’s tone was so relaxed that it made him even more curious about what he would do.
Yang Hao went downstairs, thinking that he was the one who told the men that Jiang Minglang was the one who hired them to deal with Jiang Jingchen. He was also the one who sent these men to Jiang Minglang as a gift after discussion with Song Zhou. It was already his plan to come here and deal with this matter, and use it as a bargaining chip to get into bed with Jiang Corporation.
However, he had also been thinking that Jiang Jingchen was too quick-witted. He was also very strategic and had tricks above as well as below board. He made everything look so easy.
A person like this would have been an emperor in ancient times, if not one of the highest-ranking officers who steered the country.
In less than half an hour, Yang Hao came back upstairs and told Jiang Minglang that everything had been settled and the fat man would never appear again.
Jiang Minglang had already watched the surveillance video and saw how Yang Hao handled the situation. He was very generous, decisive, and efficient when he solved the problem by throwing money at it. He was a badass.
He looked at the man’s humble smile and thought to himself that he had seen enough of the business world to know that people who always had a smile on their faces and a neutral attitude were capable of the most terrifying things. He had been quite wary of Yang Hao.
He was the kind of person akin to a poisonous snake lurking in the dark. If one was not careful, one might be swallowed whole.
“Thank you, Mr. Yang Hao. However, I am very curious. Why did Mr. Yang Hao help me?”
Yang Hao explained unhurriedly, “Although CJ is a big company overseas with plenty of cash but the Jiang family is a prestigious one in the country, a local tyrant.”
“There are three young masters in the Jiang family. The first being Jiang Jingchen. You are the second young master, and the third young master is still studying abroad.”
“I’ve met the first young master, Jiang Jingchen, abroad. He was a quiet and somewhat gloomy man. I felt that he wasn’t someone easy to get along with. Moreover, he had been recuperating for so many years and knew nothing about managing a business. Even if his legs had recovered, he’d still be useless in the Jiang family.”
“You’re holding an important position in the Jiang Corporation now and a suitable business partner. Of course, 1’11 help you.”
“Young Master Minglang, don’t worry. I see this as a win-win situation. It’s my honor to help you get rid of some trouble in exchange for a business partnership.”
Jiang Minglang was rather impressed with Yang Hao, who had investigated him behind his back and knew his plans. He then silently watched him execute those plans and offer to help him solve problems when he encountered difficulties.
This way, he would have something to use against him. The two of them were bound together; they had little choice but to work together.
“Since Mr. Yang Hao is so sincere, then I look forward to working with you in the future. Once I’ve secured my position in the Jiang family and have full control of Jiang Corporation, your status in the country will also be solidified.”
“Then, I look forward to our shared successes.” Yang Hao shook his hand.
Yang Hao and Jiang Jingchen continued their business discussion. They talked about the rules of cooperation, or to put it bluntly, terms and conditions that would be part of their partnership contract.
Since both parties had the intention to partner up, they didn’t make things difficult for each other and the negotiation went smoothly.
Yang Hao left the magnificent building that housed Jiang Corporation. He got into the car and drove some distance before he called Song Zhou.
“The show is halfway done, and things are progressing well.”
“You’ve worked hard. We still need you to hold the fort. Godspeed you will be the next Oscar Best Actor.”
Yang Hao and Song Zhou had been friends since young. When Yang Hao heard Song Zhou’s teasing, he couldn’t help but laugh. He took off his glasses and revealed his chiseled face with mixed race features.
“Who is the Best Actor this year?”
“Is there any doubt? Of course, it’s Young Master. He coaxed himself a loving wife with just a little acting, can you?”
“… I can’t say that 1 can. But you’ve seen so much of their lovey-dovey. Are you inspired to get in a relationship too?” Yang Hao teased.
A smiling face appeared in Song Zhou’s mind but he shook his head and said, “I’m not in a relationship but I do feel that it’s quite interesting to have a cute woman by my side. 1 can’t chat with you anymore. I should go update Young Master.”
Song Zhou paused for a few seconds before he continued, “About Wen Nan’s situation, can you drop Jiang Minglang a hint and tell him that Young Master used to trust that woman, but she has been dishonest. She has schemed against my young madam time and again, making my young master very unhappy.”
“You always talk about your young madam. I’m really curious what kind of fairy your young master married that he loved her so much.”
“Well, Young Madam…”
Song Zhou thought for a few seconds and continued, “She’s pretty, adorable, ambitious, a top student, and such a captivating dancer. When you get a chance to meet her, you’ll know how precious she is!”
Hearing Song Zhou’s high praises for Tang Beibei, Yang Hao became even more curious and really wanted to meet her.
Song Zhou hung up the phone and went upstairs to update Jiang Jingchen about Yang Hao’s progress. Jiang Jingchen nodded briefly and frowned, like he was troubled.
“Young Master, is something bothering you?”
“How would you get a woman to that thing with you?”
Song Zhou thought in his heart, if the young master was referring to sex, he was very sorry.
If he knew how, he would have found himself a girlfriend already!
Jiang Jingchen glanced at him and felt that it was silly of him to ask such a question.
But he felt that Tang Beibei had opened the door, but they still hadn’t moved to the next base. He felt really frustrated.
He had been married to his beautiful wife for so long and she was ready to learn about sex, but his flirting had totally backfired.
“It’s almost time. Let’s pick up my wife from school.”
In school, Tang Beibei had been in a daze all day while she attended classes. When classes finally ended, she slumped over her desk listlessly, hoping to catch up on sleep.
Ruan Qi found it strange when she saw Tang Beibei’s limp body.
She was always full of energy and seemed to never run out of energy when she studied.
“We just stayed up late to watch a movie last night. Are you that tired?”
Tang Beibei rubbed her forehead. “This is the first time I went to bed at 2 a.m. and woke up at 6:30 a.m. I have a headache now and feel weak all over.”
Ruan Qi reached out to feel her forehead. “Don’t tell me you’ve caught a cold? After all, you’ve had a shock last night and it was quite cold with the wind chill last night.”
“Maybe.”
Tang Beibei sighed. “I’ll go buy some medicine just in case. I don’t want to pass my cold to my husband.”
Ruan Qi clicked her tongue and accompanied Tang Beibei to the pharmacy. She bought some cold medicine and drank it immediately. They were just about to go back to school when they ran into a woman Tang Beibei didn’t want to see.
“Beibei, long time no see. Can we chat, please?” The woman smiled gently..
