Free Web NovelChapter 771: Cannon Fodder in the Real World (17)
What is the significance of what Jiang Lai did?
Is she crazy?!
"Jiang Li, is there a possibility that the boss of The Lion Technology is me?"
"..."
The room fell silent.
There was no movement for a long time.
Jiang Qi and Jiang Che exchanged a glance, and in each other’s eyes, they saw a flash of shock and panic.
Then the two of them looked towards Jiang Li.
Jiang Li sat there, expressionless, but the tightly clenched fists and the gradually reddening eyes exposed the turbulent waves in his heart.
Jiang Lai sold her shares at a low price, allowing her own company to hold shares at a high price.
In this way, the shares she currently holds must exceed forty-four percent, nearly forty-five percent!
"We’ve covered almost everything in this meeting, isn’t it about time to announce the chairman?
Forget it, I don’t need any ceremony. Let me introduce myself to everyone again, lest some people are too senile to recognize the future big boss.
Hello everyone, my name is Jiang Lai, chairman of Wanlong Technology and successor of the Jiang Family.
In the future, please give me your guidance."
After saying this, Jiang Lai casually picked up the board members’ notes from the table and tossed them in front of Jiang Che.
"Take it, have a good look, brothers."
Jiang Lai left.
Leaving a room full of board members staring at each other in disbelief.
This wasn’t what was promised.
How did it turn out that Jiang Lai still holds the most shares!
Walking out of the conference room, Shi Yubai, who was waiting outside, stood up and followed next to Jiang Lai.
He didn’t say a word, didn’t ask a question, until they got in the car, Jiang Lai asked him.
"Aren’t you curious what I did in there?"
"Curious, so what did you do in there?"
"Your tone sounds like you’re trying to humor a child, forget it, you’re not curious anyway, I didn’t do anything significant."
Jiang Lai leaned back against the rear seat.
As she leaned back, she suddenly felt a warm sensation behind her head.
Turning around, Shi Yubai’s hand, without her knowing when it got there, was placed at the back, just in time to stably catch her head.
"This headrest is very hard, you could easily get hurt like this."
How considerate.
Jiang Lai said thank you and shifted her head a bit to the side.
"If there’s anything work-related that you need my help with, you can tell me."
"Hmm."
Seeing that Jiang Lai didn’t want to talk, Shi Yubai didn’t say anything more.
At this moment, the driver in the front seat reported through the intercom.
"Mr. Shi, there’s a car following us at the back." freёwebnovel.com
"Have the car at the back see who sent it."
After a while, the driver’s voice came back on.
"The people behind said that this car came out of Wanlong Technology Building, it should be a car from the Jiang Family."
Shi Yubai glanced at Jiang Lai, she still had her eyes closed as if napping.
He didn’t disturb her, just gave an order.
"We’re not going back to the main residence, head to the dock." ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
The car slowly veered off the main road, heading towards the coast.
Upon reaching the dock, after the driver got out and said a few words with the person in charge, everyone at the dock left quickly.
The surveillance cameras in the control room were all turned off.
At this time, the black car that had been following them realized something was amiss and was about to turn around, only to find itself blocked by two SUVs at the back.
Shi Yubai didn’t get out of the car, just rolled down the window and said.
"Just ask a few questions and you can let them go."
The opposite person nodded.
Then the driver got back in and continued driving towards the main residence via another route.
Jiang Lai was resting with her eyes half-closed when Little Buding’s deep voice suddenly came.
"The people in the car trailing you were all killed."
Jiang Lai slowly opened her eyes.
Little Buding said heavily.
"Shi Yubai just said to release them once they got the answers, but his people turned around and shot them."
"That’s underworld lingo, ’can let go’ means ’cannot let go.’"
"Then what would you say if you really planned to let people go?"
"He has never actually let anyone go, so his men have never encountered a second scenario."
Little Buding just felt a chill on his back.
"Jiang Lai, I think you should stay away from this kind of person, he looks so gentle and refined, yet he kills without batting an eye!
This is a society governed by law!"
Little Buding usually has a sharp tongue, acting fearless, but at his core, he’s just an ordinary person.
In his small world, he could watch movies about psychopaths killing people, but encountering such a person in reality, his first reaction was to urge Jiang Lai to run away.
Jiang Lai was much calmer than him.
"Save it, in this kind of business, who doesn’t have blood on their hands?
I don’t care what kind of person he is, it’s irrelevant to me, in that family, I only recognize Uncle Huang."
"I feel he treats you differently, of course, if he treats all women like this, then forget what I said."
Jiang Lai chuckled.
"Alright, don’t get hung up on a man.
Today I successfully defended my kingdom, let’s go back and have a drink tonight."
Little Buding was still a bit worried.
But seeing Jiang Lai so relaxed, he comforted himself.
Right, Jiang Lai is so formidable, there’s no need for her to fear a killer who doesn’t blink.
Moreover, Shi Yubai is Mr. Huang’s godson, practically family with Jiang Lai, so he wouldn’t harm her.
That’s fine, as long as Jiang Lai is okay.
Back home, Jiang Lai said she was a bit tired today, so she went back to her room.
The Chinese-style courtyard, though ancient and elegant, was fully equipped with modern facilities.
Jiang Lai asked the butler to bring some wine and help her get some crayfish.
Little Buding got excited as well.
Although he couldn’t eat, Jiang Lai would always open a bottle of wine and place it opposite her, as if Little Buding was drinking along with her.
Jiang Lai seldom felt lonely because Little Buding talked so much.
Even without watching TV or using her phone, they could chat back and forth.
Sometimes Jiang Lai didn’t need to talk, and when she was in a good mood, she would almost talk to herself and discuss with him.
Outside, Shi Yubai listened to Jiang Lai’s laughter from inside, the hand holding the food container tightened slightly.
He waited for a bit, and when he heard Jiang Lai’s speech getting a bit slurred, he stepped forward and knocked on the door.
"Who is it?"
"It’s me, Shi Yubai. I heard from Mr. Huang that you like pastries, so I brought some for you."
After a while, Jiang Lai opened the door.
Her face was very red, her gaze somewhat dreamy, and as she spoke, her tongue was already getting tied.
This body hadn’t consumed alcohol in a long time, and this time Jiang Lai drank quite a bit. Although her mind was still clear, she was a bit unsteady.
"Thanks, hand over the goods, you can go rest now."
Shi Yubai looked at her face, then glanced into the room.
"Do you have a guest?"
"What does it have to do with you?"
The man remained expressionless.
"Sorry for intruding then, here, be careful eating the pastries slowly."
After taking the pastries, Jiang Lai turned and left, then as she passed over the threshold, her foot lifted, she didn’t step over it, and then she was headed uncontrollably forward.
