"You useless thing, even as the chairman of Jiang Corporation, you can't even decide on a villa.
I just won't move, what can you do about it!"
Jiang Tian's wife, Tan Ting, was a third-rate star.
Her family background wasn't very good, to begin with, but after marrying Jiang Tian, she stopped pursuing an acting career.
In Jiang Tian's words, his wife's beauty was something he wanted to enjoy all by himself.
This Tan Ting, she was also obsessed with supporting her brother, and she had given Jiang He's villa to her own brother and her parents to live in.
So now, asking them to move out was not going to be easy.
Jiang Tian said with a smile, "My dear, don't make a fuss. After this cooperation is over, I'll let you all move back in.
The situation is a bit special right now, just let your brother and parents move to our big villa instead, it's equally nice."
"I just won't!"
Tan Ting was always petulant, because Jiang Tian always doted on her, especially since she was ten years younger than him.
Now Jiang Tian was already in his fifties.
And Tan Ting in her forties, but she looked particularly young due to good maintenance.
She wasn't less beautiful than Liu Xin, just without Liu Xin's abilities.
"Slap!"
Jiang Tian suddenly lost his temper and slapped Tan Ting across the face, saying, "Why can't you be a bit more sensible.
I've pampered you too much over the years, and you've become even more ignorant of your place.
How can you have no insight at all!"
"You! You hit me?"
Tan Ting was stunned.
"Move out immediately, it must be done by today, and make sure all your belongings are cleared out.
Otherwise, don't blame me for not being considerate of our marital relationship.
Jiang Dong, you handle this."
After speaking, Jiang Tian turned around and drove away.
Jiang Dong sighed and said, "Mom, don't blame Dad, it's all because of Liu Xin and her daughter.
They're making such unreasonable demands with the backing of President Zhang from Zhongjiang Industrial.
We can't afford not to agree.
Otherwise, we'll have no more good days ahead.
But rest assured, I won't let that mother and daughter off easily."
Jiang Tian, who had left, was also furious. He had never hit his wife before.
But he did because of this matter, and he even knelt down to apologize.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he felt.
"Hmph, you Jiang Meng want to hold a press conference? You want to have a banquet?
Fine, I'll make sure you're embarrassed at the press conference!
I'll make you bear all the expenses of the banquet, and see if you won't lose face!"
He snorted coldly; now, this was the only way he could think of to annoy Jiang Meng.
He didn't dare to be too aggressive.
Otherwise, if the business deal fell through, he couldn't afford it.
He picked up his newly changed cell phone and dialed a number: "Hello, is this Journalist Chen?"
...
Night had fallen!
Looking at Xiao Chen lying on the floor, Jiang Meng couldn't fall asleep for a long time.
Even though they had only known each other for two days.
But the uncle had saved her life and even helped her and her daughter get some revenge.
He seemed like an angel sent from heaven.
How could such a person be bad?
She had never liked anyone before, but this time, she was truly smitten with Xiao Chen.
Apart from being a bit older and somewhat untidy, the uncle didn't seem to have any other faults.
"Uncle, maybe, maybe!"
Jiang Meng ultimately couldn't speak her mind and covered her head with the blanket, her face blushing with shame.
"Jiang Meng, oh Jiang Meng, how can you be so shameless, to actively suggest that the uncle come up to sleep?"
"Mengmeng, go to sleep early. We have to go to the company tomorrow," Xiao Chen's voice called out.
Jiang Meng didn't say a word, pretending she was already asleep.
Xiao Chen smiled, this silly girl really seemed like a cute child in his eyes.
The night passed without incident.
In the morning, Liu Xin had already prepared breakfast.
While eating, she nudged Jiang Meng lightly and whispered, "How about it, did you do as mom said?"
"Ah, Mom! We're eating!"
Of course, Jiang Meng didn't know what Liu Xin was referring to.
She felt shy again.
The just-twenty-year-old had not yet experienced that kind of taste.
So, she really didn't know what to do.
Liu Xin gave Jiang Meng a look and then suddenly turned to Xiao Chen, who was gobbling down his food, and said, "Xiao Chen, don't just focus on eating, there are some things a man should take the initiative to do!
Do you understand?"
Xiao Chen could feel that his mother-in-law completely accepted him now.
So, it was probably time to slowly reveal his identity.
Revealing it all at once might be too much for the mother and daughter to handle.
Better to take it slowly.
Xiao Chen vaguely agreed and quickly changed the subject, "Mom, I'm taking Mengmeng to Jiang Corporation today.
Please call in sick for me at Zhongjiang Industrial with President Zhang and arrange for someone to move the stuff to the villa.
Jiang Tian called to say that it's already been vacated."
"I've just started my new job, isn't it bad to ask for leave on the second day?" Liu Xin was somewhat concerned.
"No worries, I'm drinking buddies with Zhang Qi, that kid has to give me face," Xiao Chen said with a laugh.
"You, always telling tall tales, last time you said you were drinking buddies with Boss Chen.
Now it's President Zhang?
Just how many drinking buddies do you have?
Are they all big bosses?" Liu Xin said, unamused.
"Cough cough, maybe I remembered wrong, not drinking buddies, we were in the army together," Xiao Chen said with a cough and a laugh.
"Forget it, whatever you say. Anyway, I don't have much to do today, and President Zhang said he'd go to Jiang Corporation himself to sign the contract.
I don't think there will be a problem with taking a day off," Liu Xin conceded.
Liu Xin didn't want to press further; she believed Xiao Chen would tell them when he was ready.
After breakfast, Xiao Chen drove Jiang Meng to Jiang Corporation.
Liu Xin called in sick for him.
And really, President Zhang didn't even ask why; he just agreed and even offered to send a couple of people to help move.
Liu Xin said there was no need; she had already called a moving company.
Now, she wasn't exactly poor.
By securing the deal for Jiang Corporation, she made a million from Jiang Tian.
Though there wasn't much left after paying Jiang Meng's medical bills.
Still, she could afford to hire a moving company.
After getting paid next month, there would be no worries.
"Uncle, there won't be any danger, right? You made Jiang Tian and his son kneel.
They will definitely hold a grudge against you. Let's just stop here; I'll go by myself," Jiang Meng said with some concern as they neared Jiang Corporation's office building.
"No problem; they, they can't bother me!" Xiao Chen said with a smile, driving directly to the entrance of Jiang Corporation's office building.
Inside the office building, the atmosphere in the spacious reception hall was a bit uneasy.
The journalists arrived at the time specified by Jiang Tian.
But they had already been waiting for a full half-hour.
And still, there was no sign of Jiang Meng, the main character.
Even the journalists with good temper were becoming impatient at this point.
Impatience naturally led to grumbling.
"Hmph, this new General Manager is so arrogant, making us wait for half an hour without showing up."
"That's right, it's totally improper. Don't they know our time is also valuable?"
