Jiang Yansheng's heart trembled fiercely. She looked at Jiang Chu in surprise, frowned and asked, "What trouble did you get into?"
Why didn't she know?
Jiang Chu seemed to have caught her weakness. He sneered, threw a stack of documents that had been prepared a long time ago at Jiang Yansheng, and shouted sternly, "Take a good look at it yourself! I really don't know how you have the face to take your uncle's shares! "
Being hit by the neatly stacked heavy documents was as painful as being cut by a knife. Jiang Yansheng's face twitched, and she heard the thunderous roar of Jiang Chu.
"Give it to me!"
Jiang Yansheng clenched her fingers on the table. She gritted her teeth and looked at Jiang Chu fiercely, unwilling to give in at all. "It's in black and white. My name and Jiang Jin's are written on it. Why can you take it as you wish?"
She bent down to pick up the scattered documents on the ground, and the words written on them made her stop abruptly.
The core secrets of the latest musical instrument product developed by the Jiang Clan had been leaked. Now many groups had developed products with the same effect, which were widely sought after because of their good quality and low price. At this moment, the Jiang Clan's products had not even been advertised on the market yet...
It was suspected that the new spokesperson of the Jiang Clan was not the famous actor Jiang Yaru. Many die-hard fans of the Jiang Clan had lost the confidence to pursue them...
The Jiang Clan had suffered heavy blows one after another. This morning, the stock price had plummeted, and individual investors were complaining...
She blinked her eyes quickly, but the words written on the paper were still printed clearly.
It was not a dream.
It was true. The product that the company had not yet announced to the public had already begun to be copied.
The almost identical product that she had seen in the glass window of the shopping mall flashed through her mind. Suddenly, her heart felt as if it had sunk to the bottom of the sea.
Jiang Yansheng's fingers, which were holding the paper, couldn't help but tremble. She took a deep breath, as if she had seen something unlucky, and directly turned the documents on the ground upside down.
Forcing herself to calm down, she stood up and explained, "How can this have anything to do with my new spokesperson?"
Amei was a reliable person. She knew this very well.
Amei couldn't have done this. Besides, the report didn't mention that it was Amei who did it. Jiang Chu was probably angry and found someone to vent his anger on.
"Heh! You're still looking for excuses! " Jiang Chu pointed at Jiang Yansheng's face fiercely. He finally found a way to vent the anger that he had been suppressing all morning. "Last time when we were introducing our products, the woman you found broke in. Apart from her, did anyone else see the secrets of our company's products?"
"Even if I can't find out that she did it now, sooner or later, I'll be able to get hold of her!" The look in Jiang Chu's eyes was sinister. "Not to mention the endorsement that you and Yaru are fighting for, the whole product is ruined!"
"What's wrong?" Jiang Yansheng took a deep breath and said sarcastically, "We haven't found out who did it yet, but you can't wait to put the blame on me?"
Jiang Chu was so angry that he laughed. "Then tell me! Apart from the woman you found, the others are all senior executives of the company. Who else would be so reckless as to spread the secrets of our products? "
"Jiang Jin's matter has already caused a lot of trouble. You're also making trouble!" He slammed the table angrily. The two rows of senior executives sitting at the table all fell silent. They looked at Jiang Yansheng out of the corner of their eyes and could not help but condemn him.
It seemed that Jiang Chu's provocative words had easily shifted all the blame to Jiang Yansheng.
"Dad …" Jiang Yansheng smiled.
"Don't call me dad!" Jiang Chu walked out directly and stood in front of Jiang Yansheng. His eyes were full of undisguised disgust and anger. "You're a jinx in the company! You haven't done a single good thing until now! What do you want to do with so many shares? "
"Are you thinking about my current position?"
Jiang Chu coughed violently as he spoke. When he looked up and saw Jiang Yansheng, who was about to talk back with a faint smile on his face, he became even angrier. He did not notice that there were people sitting around him. Now, he just wanted Jiang Yansheng to bow down and admit defeat. "As long as I'm alive, you'll never be able to sit in this position!"
"How is that possible?"
"Dad, have you watched too many melodramatic TV series on TV?"
Jiang Yansheng looked down and said in a faint voice, which was in sharp contrast to Jiang Chu's voice, which was ten times more decibels. She pinched her hands hard behind her back, and when she looked up, her tone became sad with a sob. "I also know that my current position was given to me by Dad. I got it empty-handed, so I want to prove myself in front of Dad every day."
"I also want to prove to Mom in heaven that I'm not a useless person." She bit her lip. "Why is it that we're both Dad's daughters, but Yaru is full of praise for everything he does, while I'm a jinx? Sometimes I wonder if it's because Dad doesn't like Mom at all, that's why he would vent his anger on me. Is it because Dad likes Auntie Shen Lu more, that's why he's more biased towards Yaru … "
For the first time, Jiang Yansheng bit the bullet and added "Aunt" to Shen Lu's name. He was disgusted by his own tone, but Jiang Chu seemed to fall for it. He kept looking at her, and his eyes were full of shock.
"I want to get uncle's shares just to prove myself. I don't know why Dad would think so …" She pretended to be so sad that even Jiang Chu was stunned by her behavior.
When Jiang Chu met her eyes, he subconsciously looked away. "Of course not … of course not because of your mother …"
"But you've been in charge of the product endorsement from the beginning to the end. Now that such a big mess has happened, do you dare to say that you have no responsibility at all?" Jiang Chu took a deep breath. "No matter who it is, whether it's my daughter or even the person sitting in this position … your mother, I will treat everyone equally."
"In the business world, you can't make money by talking about favors. Do you know how much money the company has lost in just a few hours because of these two things? If I don't remove you from the Jiang Clan, what will the people under you say? What will the outside world say about our Jiang Clan? "
"Do you think you can make up for this with just a few words?"
Jiang Yansheng took a step forward and pleaded, "Dad, I'm sure that Amei didn't do this. Can you give me some time? I'll definitely investigate this matter thoroughly!"
Jiang Chu seemed to be persuaded by her words. He gritted his teeth and said, "Even if I give you time, you won't be able to find out. Last night, I've already sent people to investigate, but they all came back empty-handed …"
She looked at Jiang Chu with determination in her eyes. "I only need one week. Anyway, the information of the product has been leaked. Give me some time. If I really can't find any results, then Dad can directly remove me from the Jiang's." Jiang Chu nodded.
She didn't know if the condition Jiang Yansheng offered was too great, but Jiang Chu frowned and thought for a while and actually agreed.
Pushing open the door of the meeting room, Jiang Yansheng's heart was full of bitterness.
She never knew that Jiang Chu was so eager to pack up and leave the Jiang Clan!
He couldn't wait to pour dirty water on her head.
Holding the messy documents in her hands, Jiang Yansheng's eyes were dark and bottomless.
One week. Not only would she stay in the Jiang Clan, but she would also firmly take root in the Jiang Clan.
Did he want to get rid of her?
That was impossible!
Taking the elevator from the top floor, Jiang Yansheng gently pressed her slightly red eyes in the elevator mirror, which was half the height of a person. She laughed at herself in the mirror.
Obviously, the sadness just now was all faked.
Why did her heart still ache?
Why didn't she just treat Jiang Chu as a stranger?
What else was she asking for?
Leaning against the cold wall of the stairwell, she dialed Amei's number. The phone only rang once before it was quickly picked up.
"Amei …" Jiang Yansheng's voice was hoarse. Just as she called Amei's name, she heard Amei's sobbing voice, mixed with the sound of the wind.
"Yansheng, I really didn't do it!" Amei shouted into the phone and kept explaining, "I saw the news this morning. It was just an unknown spokesperson, but when I saw the product, I knew it was the one we filmed before. I really didn't do it. I really don't know what's going on …"
Ah Mei was a little emotional. As she spoke, she began to cry.
"I know it's not you." Jiang Yansheng breathed a sigh of relief.
She defended Amei because she believed in her character, but there was still a difference between hearing Amei admit that she didn't do it. Now, she felt more at ease.
"Don't worry, I've already explained it in the board meeting …"
Amei seemed to be wiping her nose. She sniffled loudly and said in a choked voice, "Is there a board meeting now? Are they blaming you because of me? I'm on my way to your company now. Can you ask them to wait? I'll explain it right away … "
Jiang Yansheng explained patiently, "No matter what you say to that group of people now, it's useless. Now that you're here in person, they've found a target to criticize. I'll go back first. Listen to me. I've already explained … "
The sound of the wind on the other end of the phone became louder.
Suddenly, there was the sharp sound of a car making a sharp turn. It was ear-piercing.
Jiang Yansheng was startled. She frowned and held the phone away from her. She pressed on her ears that were ringing. "Amei … Amei?"
There was only the sound of the wind on the other end of the phone. There was no anxious voice that replied to her.
She tightened her grip on the phone and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Amei, where are you now?"
The phone, which had been showing a call, suddenly hung up.
The red "Call Ended" on the screen was very glaring.
