Chapter 261: Where Would You Like to Go, Boss
Then, the call ended.
As Jiang Yu walked up to An Yimin, she saw that he was bowing slightly while talking on the phone.
This was a subconscious reaction and it is enough to prove how bossy the person on the other end of the phone is usually.
Jiang Yu frowned.
When An Yimin turned around and saw Jiang Yu, he awkwardly squeezed out a smile and said, “Yu Yu, I have something to do at the company. I have to rush over immediately. I’m afraid I can’t stay and eat with you.”
Xun Shaorong shouted from the kitchen, “Hubby, come in and help me!”
An Yimin walked into the kitchen and soon Xun Shaorong could be heard shouting, “What?! You have to go into the company and put in more overtime? How many times have you gone back in the past month? You even slept in at the office last week. Aren’t you done with whatever already?!”
Then, no more sound came out.
Jiang Yu lowered her head and sent out a text message. Her expression was very calm.
When An Yimin came out of the kitchen, he saw Jiang Yu slowly sipping from her ceramic cup.
Just as An Yimin opened his mouth to say, “Yu Yu, I…”
“I’ll go with you.”
An Yimin: “Ah?”
“I called for a car and it’s already parked downstairs. Let’s get there earlier and settle it earlier.”
An Yimin was stunned. “Yu Yu, you’ll be so bored if you go there. You should stay here and rest.”
Jiang Yu said in an extremely calm tone, “It’s alright. I’ll go with you. It just so happens that I haven’t been to your company for a long time.”
In the end, An Yimin couldn’t convince Jiang Yu otherwise so he could only agree to bring her along.
Xun Shaorong felt that this was a good idea. When the time came, once she was done preparing the dishes, she could send them over. That way, neither of them would go hungry.
However, Jiang Yu said calmly, “You don’t have to worry, we’ll be back soon.”
Xun Shaorong and An Yimin did not take Jiang Yu’s words seriously.
When An Yimin and Jiang Yu arrived downstairs, they saw a car parked at the entrance of the residential area.
However, it was not a taxi.
This did not bother An Yimin. He thought that perhaps Jiang Yu had used some kind of ride-hailing app to call for a car.
Jiang Yu opened the door to the back seat and allowed An Yimin to get in first. Then, she got into the car and closed the door.
The driver in the front seat asked, “Where would you like to go, Boss?”
Jiang Yu looked up at him.
The young driver shrank away. It was over. He had blurted it out. Boss had clearly said to keep a low profile and not let this uncle find out. In the end, he had exposed himself.
However, An Yimin had not felt like something was wrong.
The fact was, he had ridden in a taxi a few times before. All the taxi drivers had addressed him as boss, it’s how they show respect to their customers. This was not strange at all.
An Yimin replied, “Shun-Ning Corporation, 12 Chang An Road, please.”
Jiang Yu did a pause when she heard the name of the company.
How could it be this name?
She had some impression of this name. That strange man that had appeared at the banquet, that was the company name that he had mentioned.
Jiang Yu’s face darkened.
It was no big deal to hear this name once but to hear it twice in such a short period of time? She felt like this was no coincidence.
She took out her phone and started looking up the company name. The first news that popped up was:
“A major reversal! Shun-Ning Corp. defeats Jiang Corp. and takes the reigns of the Oasis Project!”
Jiang Yu was stunned. Shun-Ning managed to defeat Jiang?
So, that other night, when Jiang Chenglang had left in a hurry, his reason was that something had happened in the company. Was this the reason?
Jiang Yu’s expression became cold. She began searching for more information from the web and quickly found another few articles. They said that there was a mole in the Jiang Corporation. The project proposal had been stolen and sold to Shun-Ning.
