Chapter 205: These Things Can’t Even Fill Me Up!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Inside a conference room at Jiang Corporation…
When Jiang Jingchen arrived, Old Master Jiang was still in a meeting.
Jiang Jingchen sat in the conference room and drank tea. After waiting for almost an hour, Old Master Jiang still hadn’t turned up.
Song Zhou was angry. Old Master Jiang was doing this on purpose to intimidate the young master!
Song Zhou cleared his throat. Jiang Jingchen looked up at him and smiled lightly.
He exhibited no emotion at all. It was just a polite expression that became his habit in the business world.
Song Zhou understood. He poured the untouched tea into the trash can and took the teacup out. He went outside and walked around the office. When he came back to the conference room, there was still no sign of the old master, Jiang Xing.
He brought fresh tea back to the conference room and said in a low voice, “Jiang Xing is not in a meeting. He’s stalling for time.”
Jiang Jingchen was not surprised at all. “Yes, the people who kidnapped my wife just called and asked me to save her. He should be here soon.”
At this moment, footsteps were heard outside the door. Song Zhou saw Jiang Xing walk in. Behind him were two lawyers in formal attire, with lanyards bearing Jiang Corporation employee IDs around their necks.
Jiang Xing entered with a cold face and sat down immediately, like a high and mighty emperor. The two lawyers introduced themselves. “First Young Master, we are in-house lawyers for Jiang Corporation. We will manage the legal procedure for your mother’s inheritance.”
Jiang Jingchen nodded casually. “Then tell me, what’s in her inheritance?”
The two lawyers glanced at Jiang Xing, who nodded. They then sat down and began to explain the contents of the inheritance to Jiang Jingchen.
The two of them spoke about multiple properties and businesses owned by Jiang Corporation, but they did not mention anything about shares of the company.
Jiang Jingchen listened quietly and nodded from time to time.
The two lawyers were almost done when they said, “First Young Master, here are…”
At this moment, Jiang Jingchen’s phone rang.
Jiang Jingchen answered the call and heard the caller say, “Jiang Jingchen, if you don’t want anything to happen to your wife, you’d better hurry up. Don’t think 1 don’t know that you’re still at Jiang Corporation. Listen to me, quickly leave the office and get over here!”
Jiang Jingchen scratched his ear and put his phone on speaker.
“What did you say? Say that again?”
“Don’t play any tricks, and don’t even think about signing any documents. If you don’t want to see your wife’s corpse, come over immediately and bring 50 million yuan as ransom to get her back!”
“Wow, 50 million yuan.”
With an anxious expression, Jiang Jingchen opened the documents on the conference room table.
“What documents? I won’t sign anything, please don’t hurt my wife. But you need to give me time to raise the money. I’m a poor young master. How am 1 able to fork out 50 million yuan to save my wife?”
As he spoke, he picked up a pen and signed the documents on the table. His expression was not worried at all. Song Zhou, who was a bad actor, couldn’t even bear to watch.
But the young master was an Oscar-worthy actor in Song Zhou’s eyes. And he knew that Jiang Jingchen was acting.
Jiang Jingchen was extremely fast. During the short conversation, he had already signed ten agreements to receive extremely valuable assets.
Jiang Jingchen looked up at Jiang Xing and said, “You heard it too. My wife has been kidnapped. I’ll need money to pay her ransom. Give me 50 million yuan.” “How is your wife kidnapped?” Jiang Xing questioned.
Jiang Jingchen pointed at his phone. “Ask them. You guys kidnapped my wife, right?”
“Cut the crap. Stop wasting time if you want to save her. Bring us the money. If you are not here in an hour, it will be your fault that your wife loses an arm or a leg!”
“Ahhh! Hubby, save me.” A woman terrified voice sounded.
Jiang Jingchen quickly said, “Okay, okay. I’m coming. I’m raising the money now. You…”
After the kidnappers hung up on him, Jiang Jingchen put down his phone and asked the two lawyers, “Are these agreements legally enforceable after 1 signed them?”
“First Young Master, only after they are stamped.”
“Then hurry up and stamp them.”
Jiang Jingchen pushed the documents over to the lawyers when they wanted to ask him why he wasn’t running out to save his wife who had been kidnapped.
“Hurry up, don’t delay my wife’s rescue. If anything happens to her, it will be on you!” Jiang Jingchen threatened coldly.
The two lawyers looked at Jiang Xing and waited for him to nod before they began to stamp the agreements.
The agreements were being stamped with the seal of Jiang Corporation. The two of them worked quickly, and very soon, all the agreements were legally enforceable.
Jiang Jingchen handed the agreements to Song Zhou and asked Jiang Xing, “Will you give me 50 million yuan?”
“It’s to save your wife, so yes.”
It was just 50 million yuan. To the huge Jiang Corporation, it was a drop in the ocean.
Jiang Xing swiftly signed a check for 50 million yuan and handed it to his son.
Jiang Jingchen took the check and said, “I’m not paying you back this money.”
“You don’t have to pay me back. Just take your inheritance and get out of my face.”
Jiang Jingchen sneered and held up the check. “Thank you for your generosity, but I’m afraid 1 can’t get out of your face. After all, my mother told me that I’m also a shareholder of Jiang Corporation.”
“Nonsense!”
Jiang Xing was furious. “I’ve already given you so much. Jiang Jingchen, don’t be greedy.”
Jiang Jingchen sneered and took out a USB flash drive from his pocket.
“This USB drive was found in my mother’s belongings. There’s a video of my mother in which she said that 1 own shares of Jiang Corporation!”
Jiang Xing stared coldly at the USB drive. He didn’t expect the incompetent and stupid Hao Yi to have a backup plan.
“You and she have also signed some notarized documents. I know that you have those documents, but my mother also has copies of them and a video of the notarization process.”
“My mother has even listed all the assets in her inheritance. If you don’t give me what’s rightfully mine, I’ll hire the best legal team in the world to file a lawsuit against you!”
“Jiang Jingchen, where did you get these things? You forged them, didn’t you? What notarized documents? This is all nonsense!”
Song Zhou was also very surprised. He saw how calm his young master was before this. He did not expect him to have such a trump card.
A trump card that he didn’t even mention to his closest butler.
Song Zhou knew that Jiang Jingchen was a schemer, but he didn’t expect him to go so far.
He admired Jiang Jingchen, but he was also afraid of him.
It was too scary to be this man’s enemy!
Jiang Jingchen chuckled. “Jiang Xing, has my mother ever seen you act so shamelessly?”
Before Jiang Xing could answer, Jiang Jingchen added, “1 would think so. After all, when my mother was pregnant with me, you slept with her best friend!” “You bastard!” Jiang Xing was furious. He raised his arm to slap Jiang Jingchen but Jiang Jingchen was no longer an innocent child, who was lost after his mother passed away and got pushed around by them.
He grabbed Jiang Xing’s arm with a wicked smile.
“I’m a bastard but I learned it from you.”
“Jiang Xing, I’m returning the favor you did back then when you schemed against my mother!”
Jiang Jingchen flung his father’s hand away in disgust and flipped through the documents Song Zhou was holding. And then he said, “In order to omit my shares of Jiang Corporation, you’ve specially given me a lot of good things.” “Do you think I’m a country bumpkin who has never seen the world? That I’ll quietly accept the good things you’ve given me and walk away contented?”
“1 would probably believe you when 1 was seventeen.”
“Now, these things can’t even fill me up!”
Jiang Xing wanted to strangle Jiang Jingchen to death!
