Ah Zhong's expression turned somber as he watched Jiang Jian and Ling Wei interact.
His thoughts drifted to his own past, to the promise he made to Jiang Jian's father.
Protect Jiang Jian at all costs.
Ah Zhong's loyalty had never wavered, but recent events tested his resolve.
Jiang Enterprises faced a mysterious threat, one that targeted Jiang Jian's reputation.
Ah Zhong received cryptic messages, hinting at a traitor within the company.
As he investigated, Ah Zhong's suspicions fell on Victor Li's allies.
Meanwhile, Ling Wei noticed Ah Zhong's distraction.
"Is everything okay?" she asked.
Ah Zhong's mask slipped, revealing a glimpse of concern.
"Just company politics," he said.
Ling Wei's intuition told her otherwise.
That evening, Jiang Jian summoned Ah Zhong to his office.
"Ah Zhong, I trust you," Jiang Jian said.
Ah Zhong's eyes locked onto Jiang Jian's.
"I'll always protect you, CEO."
.....
Ah Zhong's investigation led him to a shocking discovery.
The mole was none other than Emily, a junior marketing executive.
Hired by Victor Li, Emily had been feeding him confidential information.
Ah Zhong's expression turned cold as he reported to Jiang Jian.
"Emily is the mole, sir," Ah Zhong said.
Jiang Jian's eyes narrowed.
"Summon everyone to the conference room. Now."
The meeting was swift and ruthless.
Jiang Jian confronted Emily, his voice icy.
"Your betrayal will not be tolerated."
Emily trembled, denying nothing.
Victor Li's influence was exposed, and Emily was escorted out.
Ling Wei's PR team sprang into action.
"Official Statement: Jiang Enterprises blacklists Emily for corporate espionage."
Netizens erupted in outrage.
"Oh no, he made a big mistake! He'll never find a job in the capital again."
"Being blacklisted by the Jiang's is the worst. Even a strip club won't employ you."
Victor Li's face turned red with rage.
"This isn't over, Jiang Jian."
Jiang Jian's response was calm.
"You should have stayed out of my business, Victor."
