Xinwan massaged her temples and took a deep breath. "I read some information last night. Is his name Li Jun?"
"Yes."
"Does he usually perform well in the company?"
"Actually, Mr. Jiang treats him very well. I've asked around about Li Jun's work and he's a very honest person. That's why Mr. Jiang likes him a lot. He's been working at Jiang Corporation for more than seven years. He started from the bottom and has a good reputation in the company. Mr. Jiang also admires him. He's been in charge of several projects and has never encountered a problem like this."
Lawyer Wu paused for a moment, then said awkwardly, "Miss Tong, it's precisely because of this that it's tricky. If Li Jun's image was too bad, then it would still be acceptable, but in this situation, if I were the judge, I would definitely side with his testimony."
Xinwan felt a headache coming on. "I understand. Can I see my father now?"
"Miss Tong, how about this? I'll arrange it for you tomorrow."
After Mr. Wu left, Xinwan went to the 22nd floor. She knew that Jiang Youyi's office was on that floor.
The secretary was still at work. When she saw Xinwan, she looked surprised. However, Xinwan said that she was just there to take a look and didn't need to pay attention to her. The secretary knew that she was Jiang Youyi's daughter, so she naturally didn't stop her.
Xin Wan had never entered this office before because she felt that everything here did not belong to her. Moreover, in the depths of her heart, she was somewhat repulsed by this place.
She walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and gently placed her hand on the glass. She looked down at the busy street below. From this height, she felt as though she was standing at a height that no one else could reach. She looked down at the ordinary people below with an insufferably arrogant gaze.
It was no wonder that successful people nowadays who had some ability would move their offices to above the 20th floor. And in such a huge office, there would definitely be a huge floor-to-ceiling window. This kind of feeling was probably called "a sense of accomplishment."
However, the sense of accomplishment was also a kind of disguised "desire" because the human heart would never be satisfied.
It was because of this height that she had thrown herself at Wen Han-woo without any feelings back then. It was also because of this height that her father was now locked up inside. It was also because of this height that people who stood on it could no longer come down, because if they fell from such a height, they would definitely be smashed to pieces.
Perhaps she really shouldn't be so arrogant and think that her father was so unbearable. In fact, how good could she be?
Humans were selfish and greedy, but in order to protect their loved ones, sometimes doing things that they didn't want to do might not be a bad thing.
Xinwan's mind was in a mess. She had all kinds of thoughts, but in the end, she felt like she had been slowly pulled out of a cage that had locked her up for more than 20 years.
In the past, she had a kind of suppressed resistance towards Jiang Youyi in the depths of her heart, but now, she felt that she seemed to be able to understand her father's difficulties and understand what "life" was. She thought that perhaps she really shouldn't be so willful as to abandon everything here and return to the United States.
She liked to draw very much, but she knew that her father was after all old. Now that he encountered such a situation, there was no one around him that he could trust. No matter how much she despised all of this, didn't she still rely on all of this to get to where she was today?
Perhaps she really should give up her so-called ideals and help her father manage this company.
Xinwan's thoughts were interrupted by a phone call. She took out her phone and looked at the caller ID. She was so scared that she didn't throw her phone away.
— — Li Ruoying?
How could it be her?
Thinking about the three words that she had saved, Xinwan quickly recalled that day at the hospital, Li Ruoying said that she wanted to accompany her when she came to check on her wound, so she saved her phone number.
But at that time, Xinwan really thought that she wouldn't take the initiative to call her, so she just said it. She didn't expect that in less than two days, she would really call her.
Hearing the phone ringing without any intention of stopping, Xinwan took a deep breath and picked it up.
"Miss Li?"
"Xinwan."
Xinwan.
Li Ruoying did help her in the past, but Xinwan was a very cautious and stubborn person. It was difficult for her to change her initial impression of someone she didn't like very much, so she didn't even want to pretend to be nice to Li Ruoying in the past. But now, she felt very uncomfortable that she was being hypocritical.
"Miss Li, why are you suddenly calling me? What's the matter?"
"Xinwan, you don't have to be so polite. Calling me Miss Li is a little too formal. Actually, I don't have anything else to say. I just know that something happened to your family, about your father …"
"Oh, it's nothing. It should be able to be resolved." Xinwan didn't want to talk too much about her father, so she stiffly interrupted Li Ruoying.
Li Ruoying replied with an "Mm," then asked carefully, "Xinwan, I'm so sorry. Maybe you don't think my words are very nice? Actually, I'm just like that. I don't have any bad intentions. I called you today because first, I wanted to ask about your father because my brother knows someone in the economic investigation department. Second, I accidentally touched my wound when I took a shower last night. It hurts a lot right now, so I have to go to the hospital. If it's convenient for you, come with me. I'll tell you about your father while I'm there. "
Xinwan opened her mouth, but Li Ruoying's "reasonable" and "warm" words made all her words stuck in her throat. For a moment, she didn't know what to say.
Li Ruoying was very good at seizing the opportunity. She immediately said, "Then I'll wait for you at the hospital entrance. Goodbye, Xinwan."
Although Li Ruoying knew someone in the economic investigation department, Xinwan still didn't want to meet Xinwan alone. She felt strange. Before she left the company, she called Xiao Youran and told her the whole story. Xiao Youran slapped her thigh and said immediately, "Damn it. Let me see if it's a person or a ghost. Which hospital? I'll be there in a moment. "
After about half an hour, Xinwan's car arrived at the hospital parking lot. As expected, Xiao Youran's car had also arrived. The two got out of the car, greeted each other, and immediately entered the hospital together. When she saw Li Ruoying, Xinwan maintained a very professional smile on her face. Her sharp eyes noticed that the woman sitting opposite her stiffened for a moment.
"Xinwan, this must be your friend, right?"
Li Ruoying tightened her grip on her bag and forced a smile. "Why did you come together?"
Xinwan introduced, "This is my best friend, Xiao Youran. Youran, this is Miss Li. You must know her."
Xiao Youran chuckled and immediately stepped forward. She stretched out her hand and said, "Miss Li, of course I know her. It's a pleasure to meet you. Actually, I'm also helping Wanwan assess the situation. Now that her father is in trouble and she's out of her wits, I have to keep an eye on her."
Even if Li Ruoying wasn't extremely smart, it was impossible for her not to understand the meaning behind Xiao Youran's words.
Moreover, she already felt a little guilty. A trace of darkness flashed across the depths of her eyes, but she quickly concealed it and immediately said, "Miss Xiao, you're so considerate. Actually, I know about Xinwan's father's situation. I heard it from my family this morning. You know that our Li Family is also a business. This kind of news spreads quickly. However, I don't think it's that difficult to deal with Xinwan's father's situation. If there's someone we know, we can still find out. "
Li Ruoying spoke casually as if money could make the world go round. However, Xinwan didn't have much confidence in her heart. She knew that the root of the problem was actually Li Jun. However, since Li Ruoying was speaking, she naturally listened to her.
"Here, Xinwan. This is the phone number."
Li Ruoying took out a piece of white paper from her handbag. A person's name was clearly written on it, and below it was a string of numbers. She said, "Actually, I don't know much about business either. However, my brother is quite knowledgeable and knows a lot of people. Of course, he didn't let me get involved in this matter. I don't know anything in the first place. However, people in this circle come and go like that. Xinwan, you definitely understand. Keep this number for now. If there's really no other way, you can call this number and say that someone asked you to find him and ask him for help. If he really does help, your father's situation should be solved. "
Xinwan looked at the string of numbers suspiciously. Her beautiful brows gradually knitted together.
What did this mean?
Giving her a name, a number, and asking her to find him. Such a vague meaning. Could it be that she wanted her to sell her body?
Xinwan had thought of this point. Naturally, Xiao Youran had also thought of this. Xinwan was too embarrassed to say it out loud. Xiao Youran's mouth was quick, and she couldn't help but say, "Miss Li, what do you mean by this? Giving a number, don't tell me you want our Wanwan to sleep with someone and ask for help later? "
Xinwan hurriedly pulled Xiao Youran. "Youran."
"Why are you pulling me? I didn't say anything wrong. Miss Li, you're also a person of status. Why do you like to hit someone when they're down and pimp them? "
Xinwan, it was one thing for her to dislike Li Ruoying. However, this was a public place after all. Xiao Youran was outspoken. She was afraid that her friend would offend Li Ruoying. She used to think that this woman wasn't scheming, but she was quite scheming. However, at this moment, she held this phone number as if she was holding a hot potato.
It was as if she really felt that she had underestimated Li Ruoying.
"Miss Li, my friend …"
"It's fine."
