Lu Yuan choked.
She didn’t expect Jiang Chenglang to give such a reason.
So, he was so cautious of her because he was afraid of upsetting Jiang Yu?
If Lu Yuan hadn’t caused him to lose two big contracts in a row and suffer a reputation crisis, he wouldn’t have treated her and Jiang Yu so differently.
Even if Jiang Chenglang was closer to her, he wouldn’t have acted so openly in front of Jiang Yu. Moreover, he had never said such things before!
Lu Yuan suddenly felt a little angry.
However, it was just a small change in her rebirth. Jiang Wan, who was in her teens, had never played with her before. Now, it might not be the case.
Lu Yuan sorted out her thoughts and said with a smile on her face, “As expected, you dote very much on Little Sister. How you treated me in the past, now that your feelings have shifted to Jiang Yu, it’s even worse.
“Aiya, I’ve made Director Jiang unhappy again, haven’t I? After all, I mentioned the word ‘little sister’ in front of you again…”
Jiang Chenglang nodded and said, “Indeed. For example, there’s a word called ‘your younger sister’. It’s a derogatory term when it’s related to you or comes out of your mouth.”
Lu Yuan: “…”
D*mn it.
Was Jiang Chenglang also so mean when he was insulting others?
It had been a long time.
Her expression was a little broken, but Jiang Chenglang continued, “What’s the matter? Hurry up and say it.”
The smile on Lu Yuan’s face could no longer be maintained.
She simply threw away her calm appearance and said with a cold face, “Okay, then I’ll be straightforward. In the will, apart from saying that you will help me keep the shares, it also says that you need to maintain the market value of the Jiang group without letting it fall into decline.
“If the market value of the Jiang Group drops at the time that Director Jiang hands over the shares to me when I become an adult, I have the right to refuse to accept it. Moreover, I need you to bring the market value of the Jiang Group back to its original state. Director Jiang, you haven’t forgotten about this, have you?”
Jiang Chenglang didn’t care at all. “I haven’t forgotten. You came here to remind me of this old man’s trick of making me work for you?”
“Yes,” Lu Yuan said, “Since I’m going abroad, there must be a deadline, right? Two years is enough for President Jiang to run the company and bring it back up to scratch. You don’t want to work for me for so long, do you?”
She tilted her head, “I know. President Jiang must have other thoughts now, such as opening another company and becoming his own boss. Otherwise, with your talent, how could you be willing to marry someone else? Especially… an illegitimate daughter like me, who is despised by others.”
When she said this, there was no trace of shame in her eyes and she was calm and composed.
Jiang Chenglang’s expression was restrained.
He felt that Lu Yuan seemed to be different in some way.
Lu Yuan let go of her hand and placed her hands on the armrests on both sides of the chair.
“In order to make our cooperation pleasant, I have to trouble you to send me the information about the Jiang Group on a regular basis so that I can understand the development of the Jiang Group. It’s also much more convenient for me to take over the Jiang Group immediately after I come back from abroad. Are you okay with that?”
Jiang Chenglang was a little surprised that Lu Yuan directly raised her request.
Jiang Chenglang said, “Sure.”
Lu Yuan stretched out her hand and raised her eyebrows. “Then, I’ll have to trouble you to give me the latest financial statements of the Jiang Group now.”
Jiang Chenglang didn’t say anything and asked someone to send over the financial statements.
After receiving the information, Lu Yuan was ready to leave.
However, when she got up, she suddenly thought of something and said while holding the information, “President Jiang, do you feel that I’m a lot more straightforward this time?”
Jiang Chenglang: “No.”
Lu Yuan: “…”
Why? Jiang Chenglang wasn’t answering the questions as she had imagined!
Although Jiang Chenglang didn’t follow the routine, Lu Yuan still continued, “I think there must be a moment when President Jiang has the thought that he has never properly met his stepsister, right?”
She said slowly, “You really don’t know me well enough, but are you sure that you know your good sister Jiang Yu well enough? Perhaps she has two faces as well?
“After me, you can still trust others so easily. You’re indeed amazing, Director Jiang.”
There was no one else who could be so self-deprecating as her.
Jiang Chenglang was not bewitched by her. He said firmly, “Xiao Yu is different from you.”
Lu Yuan: “Oh? What’s the difference?”
Jiang Chenglang: “I don’t need to tell you that.”
Lu Yuan chuckled. “Maybe the person in your heart right now is the person in your heart. Director Jiang, you have to know that women are always good at disguising themselves.
“Of course, you don’t have to believe what I’m saying. After all, I have a criminal record. The current me might also be a disguise? But…”
She changed her tone. “Could it be that after Jiang Yu returned, you realized that there were so many differences between her and the information you investigated and didn’t suspect anything?”
Jiang Chenglang replied, “That has nothing to do with you.”
Lu Yuan raised the ends of her eyes and said straightforwardly, “You’re feeling guilty.”
She turned around and walked toward the door.
“That’s all I have to say. Goodbye, Director Jiang.”
…
After Lu Yuan left, Jiang Chenglang took out the information that Rong Qi had prepared for him.
On the information, he even made some notes and marked some…
The current Jiang Yu was indeed different from the information in there.
He couldn’t deny that he had his suspicions, but the paternity test report wouldn’t be fake. If Jiang Yu was real, she must be his biological sister.
That day, when he was at the An family, he had thought of going over to An Yimin to verify some of the information, but because Feng Linbai was present, it wasn’t convenient for him to ask.
The next day, when he heard Feng Linbai asking An Yimin a question, he suddenly gave up on this idea.
He only needed to know that Jiang Yu was his biological sister. Everything else wasn’t important.
For so many years, the Jiang family had mistreated Jiang Yu. She didn’t owe anyone anything.
As for him, he trusted Jiang Yu.
The difference between her and Lu Yuan was that she had never bothered to disguise herself. She also didn’t want to rely on anyone independently.
When he saw Jiang Yu interacting with the An couple, there was only one thought in his mind.
He wanted to become her family.
He wanted to become a family that could protect her.
…
At the same time, at the Feng Corporation.
Ke Yanbin passed the information to Feng Linbai, “Master, I’ve checked. When Jiang Yu was young, there was indeed no one called brother Xiao Bai by her side. There wasn’t even a person of the opposite sex that was close to her, let alone a person with the name ‘Bai’.”
“Master, could it be that… you’ve Misheard?”
In Ke Yanbin’s imagination, could it be that the master had found an imaginary enemy for him, but deep in his heart, he was unwilling to build this imaginary enemy, so he gave him his own name so that he would feel better?
After all, the information wasn’t fake. There really wasn’t such a person.
Feng Linbai frowned, resolutely said, “Impossible. You know how my hearing is..”
