Jiang’s Treasure 175: Chapter 175 Mrs.
Jiang’s Treasure In the hospital, Zhong Yue and the old man confird a few things.
After making sure everything was correct, Ouyang Jiuzhang signed his na and stamped his personal seal.
Zhong Yue put away the docunts and said, “Old man, after you are discharged from the hospital, I will accompany you to the notary office.”
Ouyang Jiuzhang looked at Su He and said, “Let’s do it on Monday then, girl, you co along too.”
Upon hearing this, Su He nodded, “Okay, I got it.”
Zhong Yue said a few more words, then left.
Su He didn’t stay long in the hospital room either, as the old man soon sent her away.
Outside the hospital room, Xiao Si chased after Su He and asked, “Younger sister, are you really Old Mr.
Ouyang’s mysterious disciple?”
Su He did not deny it, “Yes, what is it?”
Xiao Si’s eyes sparkled upon hearing her words.
He then said, “Can you sell this year’s work to ?”
He had always wanted to collect her works, but unfortunately, could never get his hands on one.
She only produces one piece per year, and he had no idea how long he would need to wait.
But now it’s different, he could take so shortcuts.
However, at the next second, he heard Su He say, “No.”
The light in his eyes dimd much, “Younger sister, given our good relationship, could you please do this favor?
No matter the price, I won’t argue.”
Then he added, “As long as it’s within my affordability, I can accept it.”
Although he was not lacking money, compared to her husband who was imnsely wealthy, he was indeed short of funds.
Su He glanced at him indifferently, “It’s not that I’m not willing to give you a shortcut, but I don’t have any works this year.”
“Why?”
“Busy, no ti.”
“…”
Xiao Si wanted to say sothing more when he was given a cold look by Jiang Yan nearby.
That look seed to say, “Stop bothering my wife!”
“…”
Lou Family.
Lou Ruozhi was in a state of panic after being unable to contact soone.
anwhile, the Lou Family’s funds faced problems again.
The last shock had greatly weakened the Lou Family.
The operations of the Lou Family had been gradually recovering, looking like they were getting back on track, but trouble struck just at this critical juncture.
The new project had just started when the investors began withdrawing their funding, and several of them made the sa move.
Especially the largest investor, DK Group, had proactively approached them for investnt right after the Lou family t with trouble.
Once DK Group’s funds were injected, the Lou Family felt almost resurrected, and then one after another, new investors sought cooperation with them.
Lou Guohui certainly knew it was because of DK Group’s influence.
Although DK was a newcor, its strength was comparable to any major company, and it was the most capable of competing with the Jiang Family.
However, the mastermind behind DK was too mysterious, remaining unknown to date.
Initially, when DK invested in the Lou Family’s projects, Lou Guohui, though tempted, had reservations and investigated before confidently collaborating with DK.
But now—
A major problem had arisen, and the first to withdraw was the DK Group.
Without any notice, they pulled out their funds.
In Lou Guohui’s office, the assistant knocked on the door and entered with a solemn and worried expression.
“Chairman, we contacted the project manager from DK.
They said this was a directive from their superiors.
Also, they said they would pay the contract breach penalty as usual, but will no longer participate in any projects of the Lou Family.”
The assistant stood in front of the desk, head bowed, reporting uneasily.
At this, Lou Guohui’s face turned ashen.
They preferred to pay the breach penalty rather than continue investing, which certainly indicated so unknown hidden issues.
But what exactly had gone wrong?
Additionally, according to his earlier investigations, DK Group had never before withdrawn investnts without reason.
Even if there were reasons, they were directly communicated, but in his case, there were none!
Lou Guohui felt a sinking feeling, as though this was a huge trap capable of burying the Lou Family underground!
Seeing him silent, the assistant cautiously asked, “Chairman, what should we do now?
The board will soon find out.”
Once the board found out, the consequences were unthinkable.
Already dissatisfied due to a previous financial crisis at the Lou Family, the board mbers might band together to impeach Lou Guohui, putting his chairman position in peril.
Though Lou Guohui held a significant share of the Lou Family, the board would surely question his managent skills.
Having been in business for many years, Lou Guohui considered himself a crafty old fox in the industry, but he had never expected to fall into such a situation.
After a few seconds, Lou Guohui, with a grim face, said sternly, “You go out first, let think.”
The assistant, hearing this, hurriedly left.
Soon after, Lou Guohui picked up a phone on the side and made a call.
Just as Lou Ruozhi, preparing to leave the house, her phone rang.
Answering the call, she first spoke, “Hello, husband, I was just about to co find you.”
Despite being furious for a long ti after the scandal involving him and An Xiao erupted, she knew deep down that her heart still loved him.
Thus, their relationship had considerably eased recently.
After so many years as husband and wife, growing up together, Lou Guohui knew her thoroughly, “What’s wrong?
Did sothing happen?”
He hadn’t had a chance to check the latest reports on Jiang Yan yet.
Lou Ruozhi spoke with a hint of urgency, “The news about his critical illness is false, and it’s possible that the rumor about him is also false.”
Otherwise, his thirtieth birthday had passed several days ago with no issues arising.
If that rumor was false, then why had he concealed it for so many years, and for what reason?
Lou Guohui knew who she referred to.
After hearing this, he was startled.
Jiang Yan isn’t sick?
“What’s going on?”
Then he asked sternly.
“Husband, do you think he might have found out about the past events?”
“It’s impossible!
Anyone who could know about those past events is no longer around.”
He knew this, and so did Lou Ruozhi, but…
Lou Guohui then continued, “He was so young then, how could he possibly know about those things?
Don’t get flustered just because you see him safe and sound.”
Then he asked again, “How’s that matter progressing?”
As long as Lou Ruozhi got that money, even if they pulled out their investnts, there was still hope for the Lou Family.
Hearing his words, Lou Ruozhi spoke softly, “I can’t reach Mr.
Luo.
I’ve called him several tis, no one answers.”
Just after she finished speaking, Lou Guohui spoke harshly, “No matter what, we must find him!
There can be no errors in this matter!”
He realized his tone was a bit too harsh, imdiately corrected himself.
His tone softened slightly, he sighed and said, “Xiaozi, I’m sorry, I was too anxious just now, I didn’t an to, I…”
When Lou Ruozhi heard his sigh, she sensed sothing was wrong and automatically ignored his strict and not-so-nice tone from earlier.
“Is there another problem with the Lou Family?”
Currently, it seems only trouble within the Lou Family would cause him to sigh like that.
Lou Guohui didn’t hide it from her and gave a rough explanation.
Lou Ruozhi didn’t expect such a thing to happen; after all, the Lou Family was her family’s property, and naturally, she didn’t want to see anything wrong happening to it.
…
After leaving the hospital, Jiang Yan and Su He headed back to the Jiang Family Mansion.
While they were on the road, Su He’s phone rang.
She glanced at it.
It was from Zhou Yixing.
She thought he was rushing her for the data and imdiately said, “Sorry, Young Master Zhou, I can give you the data by Monday, if nothing unexpected happens.”
Originally, she planned to settle his matter today, but sotis plans can’t keep up with changes.
Zhou Yixing didn’t expect her to be so straightforward.
He chuckled over the phone, “Don’t worry, I’m not rushing you.
I said I’m not in a hurry.
Are you alright?”
He said this and ended with that question.
Su He did not imdiately catch his aning.
Zhou Yixing, hearing no response, added, “The car that exploded outside the law firm, wasn’t that yours?”
“How did you know?”
She rembered Jiang Yan instructed soone to keep it under wraps, and the police also cooperated and didn’t release any information about it.
Zhou Yixing explained, “I ran into so trouble today, went to the criminal police team, and t an old friend there, who told about it.”
Su He instantly understood that the old friend he ntioned was Xing Siyang, knowing they were good friends.
“I’m fine, just a pity about my car,” she lanted.
Zhou Yixing laughed, “Are you short of money?”
Not to ntion her own wealth, the man listed as her spouse is even wealthier.
Su He said, “It has nothing to do with lacking money; after all, nobody’s money cos from being blown in by the wind.”
In short: Earning money is not easy!
Zhou Yixing chuckled softly, “Alright, if you help with this matter, I’ll gift you an extra car, with no price limit, pick whatever you like.”
Su He was sowhat surprised, “Since when has Young Master Zhou been so generous?”
“I’ve always been quite generous, but the condition for my generosity is seeing whether the other person is worth speaking up.”
During their conversation, Jiang Yan by her side heard every single word.
The man did not interrupt her conversation with Zhou Yixing and kept looking ahead from start to finish.
However, anyone clever could feel a sour chill spreading inside the car.
The driver, Jiang Feng, and the co-driver, Fei Xu, only felt a chill on their backs but dared not say more.
At this point, Su He remarked, “There’s no need to trouble Young Master Zhou to spend the money, especially since I have a husband who is wealthy beyond asure.
He earns so much money, not spending it would be a waste of his hard work.”
“…”
Right after she finished speaking, the man looking forward continuously, his lips inadvertently curled up slightly.
Then, he felt a warm touch on the back of his hand as a soft hand laid over his.
Following this, he imdiately responded by holding her hand, interlocking their fingers.
Su He probably talked with Zhou Yixing for a few more minutes, but their conversation shifted to financial investnts before she hung up.
“Why are you looking at like that?”
After hanging up the phone, she realized that Jiang Yan was staring at her.
“Mrs.
Jiang, aren’t you trained in dicine?”
Su He blinked her peach blossom eyes, and quickly understood why he had asked this.
With a curve of her red lips, she responded, “Who says that being trained in dicine ans you can’t study other fields?”
Jiang Yan slightly squinted his eyes and pinched the palm of her hand, saying, “It seems, I have really underestimated Mrs.
Jiang.
You’ve kept your talents well hidden.”
Su He smiled sweetly and said, “That’s right, soone like is a rare treasure, perhaps only encountered once in a thousand years.”
While saying this, she quirkily raised her eyebrows, “But having been discovered by President Jiang shows your prowess too.”
While complinting herself, she did not forget to include him as well.
The people in the front rows turned a deaf ear to the conversation in the back seats.
Apparently, the usually aloof Young Madam can be quite humorous at tis, even making jokes about Master.
Despite today’s events, Su He seed entirely unaffected.
If it were so other girls, they would likely be crying uncontrollably by now.
…
At three in the afternoon.
In the study of the Jiang Family Mansion.
Jiang Qi stood upright before the desk and said, “Master, Mrs.
Lou has secretly sent people to find Luo Hong.”
“And the companies that invested in Lou Family’s projects have also pulled their funding.”
After the first financial crisis at Lou Family, Jiang Yan had people invest in Lou Family’s projects under the na of DK Group, knowing that a single financial crisis wouldn’t be enough to bring down Lou Guohui.
But even he can’t withstand a second crisis.
As for Lou Ruozhi seeking Luo Hong, it’s regarding a sizeable inheritance left by Mr.
Jiang which has been untouched.
Although this inheritance was left for Lou Ruozhi, it has a condition—that she must be the madam of the Jiang Family.
But as she chose divorce and left the Jiang family, she forfeited the money.
This money had been set aside for her during Mr.
Jiang’s life, as he worried that should he pass away, at least he could leave her sothing to ensure she had no worries for her later life.
Lou Ruozhi knew this money existed, but she didn’t consider it much back then.
Moreover, the Lou family wasn’t lacking the funds to support her.
Now, however, tis have changed.
The condition was added by Mr.
Jiang after he found out Lou Ruozhi had connections with Lou Guohui.
After much contemplation, he decided to add it through the lawyer.
Just then, coinciding with the rumor of his “not living past thirty,” Lou Ruozhi began eyeing this inheritance.
Or perhaps, she had been eyeing it for a long ti.
She had been contacting Luo Hong in secret; Luo Hong was Mr.
Jiang’s forr lawyer, and he has always kept the docunt for the inheritance.
“Find a suitable ti and have Luo Hong take the initiative to et her,” the man spoke in a low, cold tone.
“Tell Luo Hong to inform her if she wants the money, she should divorce Lou Guohui.”
Does she not love this man dearly?
Then, let’s see how devoted this couple really is!
Jiang Qi was montarily stunned and then responded, “Yes, I will relay the ssage to Mr.
Luo.”
He asked, “That, Master, if Mrs.
Lou actually agrees to the divorce, will she really be given the money that the old master left?”
Although he knew that Master had no particular kindness towards those with the surna Lou, he still thought it better to ask clearly to avoid misunderstandings later.
Jiang Yan narrowed his deep black eyes and said solemnly, “Didn’t my dad also leave a condition?
What I added is just another condition.”
In an instant, Jiang Qi understood.
No matter what, the Lou Family wouldn’t be able to receive that money.
He was just seeking revenge for the old master.
Sotis, to revenge soone, you don’t need to act hastily, but rather let it stew slowly, leaving a more profound impression.
