Marrying a wealthy family for the second time, being spoiled by a paranoid childhood sweetheart

"Why didn't you look at the road when you walked?" Gu Chen was glad that he had chased out and breathed a sigh of relief to see Jiang Ru out of danger.

"Sorry, I was in a bad mood and didn't look at the road." Jiang Ru saw a car passing by her and she didn't know when she walked to the middle of the road. She was a little frightened.

"Is it because of my mom?" he asked.

Jiang Ru nodded and did not deny it.

"Am I not doing well enough, so your mother doesn't like me?"

When they were young, they were childhood sweethearts and neighbors. They had met each other a few times before. Gu Chen would often go to play with her, but she would always drive him out by Gu Chen's mother.

She had the impression that Gu's mother had never liked her since she was a child. At that time, her father was not in prison, and Gu's mother's attitude towards her was even colder. When they met for the first time after she grew up, she was still confronted sharply. What did she do wrong?

She knew very well that it was not because of her father's imprisonment, so what was the reason?

Two tears fell from Jiang Ru's eyes. Gu Chen reached out to wipe them away, feeling somewhat guilty.

Jiang Ru was unhappy because of her mother's affairs, and Gu Chen felt bad in his heart. He tried to comfort Jiang Ru: "It doesn't matter. Even if my family doesn't like you, I like you."

I like you... These words echoed in Jiang Ru's mind, making her heart pound like a deer.

What was he saying just now? Was he saying he liked her? Was he going to confess his feelings to me?

Jiang Ru did not refuse and was actually looking forward to it. She thought that Gu Chen would confess his feelings to her next. The atmosphere was ambiguous and her face was as red as an apple.

Seeing Jiang Ru's rosy face and the good atmosphere, Gu Chen tentatively kissed Jiang Ru.

His lips slowly fell on Jiang Ru's lips. At the critical moment, Jiang Ru thought that Gu's mother didn't like her, and she felt very uncomfortable. She could only avoid Gu Chen.

Seeing Jiang Ru's frightened reaction, Gu Chen smiled helplessly and just kissed her cheek, a light and ambiguous kiss.

"I'll walk you home."

Gu Chen sent Jiang Ru back to the apartment and went back himself. The two of them walked in silence all the way.

The ambiguous atmosphere was very strange, and even Jiang Ru didn't know what their relationship was now...

The next day, Jiang Ru returned to work and encountered Jiang Yanxin's picking on her early in the morning.

Jiang Ru didn't want to pay any attention to him at all. She focused on her work and said coldly, "I still have some documents to sort out. Get out."

"I'm here to kindly remind you how the cooperation with the Lin Group is going."

When Jiang Ru was in a bad mood, Jiang Yanxin asked her about the progress of the project. Jiang Yanxin knew that Jiang Ru had not completed the task, so she deliberately came to make fun of Jiang Ru.

"I'm already discussing cooperation, why are you bragging?" Jiang Ru was explaining in a very indifferent voice, not wanting to waste words with such a person.

"Don't forget, you promised me that if we can't achieve cooperation, you will leave the company."

Jiang Yanxin reminded Jiang Ru of the bet between them, her eyes were particularly proud, as if she was sure of winning.

"So what? I will definitely win. Prepare the position of vice president for me!"

Jiang Ru is determined to take the position of vice president and is very confident in herself. Becoming vice president is just the first step. She wants to take back the company bit by bit.

Jiang Yanxin felt like she had just heard a huge joke and said unhappily, "Humph, I heard you haven't even met Mr. Lin yet. You'd better pack up and leave."

"Isn't it the agreed time yet? I can still get the cooperation!"

Jiang Ru refused to back down. If she gave up now, all her previous efforts would be wasted. She would definitely find a way to convince Lin Chuan.

"If you don't have the ability, don't force yourself. The workplace isn't suitable for naive people like you. My time is limited, and you only have three days."

Jiang Yanxin sneered and didn't believe it, and continued to pressure Jiang Ru to give a final three days. There was originally a week left, but it was shortened to three days.

Jiang Ru retorted unconvincedly, "Isn't there still a week left?"

"The company attaches great importance to this project. Can you afford to delay it if you can't get it?"

Jiang Yanxin, however, confidently stated that speeding up the cooperation project was all for the company, and her face was very hypocritical.

Jiang Ru knew that arguing with the other party was pointless and completely unreasonable. She gritted her teeth and agreed: "Three days is three days. I will give you a satisfactory answer."

"Haha, I'm just waiting to see how you lose miserably."

Jiang Yanxin achieved her goal of putting pressure on Jiang Ru, and left Jiang Ru's office arrogantly. She was sure to win the bet.

Jiang Ru was confident and felt that only Mrs. Lin could be the breakthrough point. Now that time was shortened, she had no choice but to prepare to visit Mrs. Lin at the Lin family again.

But unexpectedly, she ran into Chen Qi. A month ago, Chen Qi got an important cooperation project by currying favor with Jiang Yanxin, and now he has been promoted to director. In order to suppress Jiang Ru, Jiang Yanxin specially found a reason to promote Chen Qi a few days ago, and now he has become a director.

Chen Qi had previously harmed Jiang Ru and thought he would be taught a lesson, but unexpectedly he was promoted instead. He became even more proud and was so happy that he almost lost his mind.

"You never imagined that I'm your boss now. How do you treat your boss? Why don't you serve him some tea and water?"

When he saw Jiang Ru, he showed off his power in front of her, saying that he was now Jiang Ru's boss, and even ordered Jiang Ru around without any shame.

She sat directly in Jiang Ru's office and really regarded herself as the boss.

But he didn't know that he would be promoted to director and was just used as a pawn. It was so pitiful and sad.

"I'm just a dog by Jiang Yanxin's side. Do you really think I'm your superior? Do you think you're worthy enough?"

Jiang Ru slapped the dog in the face and taught it a lesson, saying that a dog shouldn't bark in front of her.

The sound of the slap was crisp and loud.

Chen Qi was completely dumbfounded and confused.

"Why did you hit me? I am your boss now. What qualifications do you have to hit me? I demand that you kneel down and apologize. Otherwise, I will fire you."

Chen Qi covered his face in frustration, yet he still had the nerve to shout and ask Jiang Ru to apologize. He was simply shameless.

Before this, Jiang Ru had never handed over the evidence of the earrings to the police, and she allowed this troublemaker to do whatever he wanted in the company, just to make Chen Qi fall from a higher place.

I didn't expect that this woman actually regarded herself as a character. It's so ridiculous.

Jiang Ru sneered. Now was the time to expose Chen Qi's true face. She took out her earrings and retorted sarcastically, "You framed me before and pushed me into the river. That's already committed intentional homicide. I didn't give you face by handing over the evidence. Now it seems you don't deserve any sympathy at all."

Jiang Ru took out her cell phone and prepared to call the police. Chen Qi was frightened when he saw Jiang Ru was going to call the police. He lost all his arrogance and begged Jiang Ru desperately: "Please don't call the police. I can't lose this job. I can't go to jail..."

Jiang Ru's smile also turned a little colder. "Why didn't you order me around arrogantly just now? If you have the ability now, you can continue to be my boss. But how long can you remain my boss?"

There was no way she would let Chen Qi go, and now Chen Qi had to pay the price.

"I'm kneeling down to beg you, can you give me another chance?"

Chen Qi immediately knelt down and cried and begged Jiang Ru to let him go, his voice was so humble.

Chapter 96 Reaching Cooperation

"You no longer have a chance. Wait for the punishment of the law!"

Jiang Ru pushed Chen Qi away mercilessly and called to report it. She had no intention of letting Chen Qi off the hook for causing her to fall into the water.

Seeing Jiang Ru about to call the police, Chen Qi was anxious and helpless. He snatched Jiang Ru's phone and said excitedly: "You can't call the police!"

"You're a step too late. The police are on their way. Security, take her under control."

Fortunately, Jiang Ru had already prepared for this and she called the security guard to come and catch Chen Qi. Chen Qi wanted to escape, but he couldn't move.

At the critical moment, the police arrived at the scene. Jiang Ru directly handed the evidence to the police: "This pair of earrings is the evidence that Chen Qi framed me a month ago. Please take this woman away."

"You already had the evidence, why did you hand it over to the police only now?" The police looked puzzled.

The case of Chen Qi hiring someone to frame Jiang Ru has been delayed for a month because no evidence was found, but Jiang Ru did not respond. She did not expose Chen Qi in the Propaganda Department before because she was afraid that Chen Qi's case would affect the reputation of the department and she would not be able to fulfill her military order, so she tolerated it until now.

But she didn't expect that Chen Qi actually thought she was afraid of her and dared to show off in front of her. Of course she couldn't let him go.

Now that the military order has been fulfilled and performance has improved, there is naturally no need for Chen Qi. Jiang Ru found an excuse and smiled, "I found her today when I returned to the crime scene. Let's take her away quickly."

"Now that the evidence is conclusive, please come with us."

The police took the woman away directly. Chen Qi was unwilling to give up. He had finally been promoted and he absolutely could not be taken away like that.

Jiang Yanxin happened to be there too. Chen Qi knelt down and kowtowed to Jiang Yanxin: "Boss Jiang, I am yours. We have a close relationship. Please save me. I can't go to the police station. I don't want to go to jail."

"I have nothing to do with you. Don't try to be my relative. I don't know you. Police, please take this crazy woman away!"

Jiang Yanxin originally came to laugh at Jiang Ru, but she didn't expect Jiang Ru to expose Chen Qi on the spot. Now she couldn't protect Chen Qi, so the most urgent thing was to sever ties with her, so she directly and ruthlessly got rid of Chen Qi.

She can sacrifice her own pieces at critical moments, and she won't let anyone influence her!

Chen Qi only now realized that even though he had worked hard for Jiang Yanxin, he was just a chess piece that could be discarded at any time.

Chen Qi was always losing the argument. He refused to be taken away and, having gone a little crazy, attacked the police and ran away. "No one can take me away."

How could a weak woman be a match for the police? After finally breaking free, Chen Qi was easily subdued and taken away by the police again: "Take her away."

Chen Qi was taken away by the police and sentenced to three years in prison. Before being taken away, Chen Qi cursed Jiang Ru viciously: "Jiang Ru, you will not die a good death. Even if I become a ghost, I will not let you go."

Her eyes were full of hatred, but Jiang Ru didn't take it to heart at all and didn't care at all.

"Hey, assistant, help me investigate Mrs. Lin's movements."

After resolving Chen Qi's issue, Jiang Ru felt a lot more at peace. She didn't want to care about so many things. The most urgent thing now was to find Mrs. Lin as soon as possible.

We have already wasted too much time before, we must find Mrs. Lin as soon as possible.

Jiang Ru asked her assistant to investigate Mrs. Lin's movements, and Mrs. Lin's movements were soon discovered.

"I've already found out that Mrs. Lin goes to the beauty salon every week."

The assistant immediately handed over Mrs. Lin's whereabouts. After learning about Mrs. Lin's actions, Jiang Ru felt very surprised.

After Jiang Ru got the cooperation agreement, she couldn't wait to find Mrs. Lin, but was met with Jiang Yanxin's ridicule.

"Oh, I advise you not to waste your time. You will never be able to complete the cooperation. You should leave the company as soon as possible to avoid embarrassment."

Jiang Yanxin was so angry because Jiang Ru made her lose a chess piece that she gritted her teeth, so she said some unpleasant words to make Jiang Ru give up.

It's a pity that Jiang Ru is not the type to give up easily. She remained unmoved and curled her lips slightly: "It's not the agreed time yet, let's wait and see."

She simply ignored Jiang Yanxin and passed by her.

Jiang Yan gritted her teeth in anger, but there was nothing she could do. She could only watch Jiang Ru leave.

She secretly cursed Jiang Ru in her heart, hoping that Jiang Ru would not be able to complete the cooperation. She didn't believe that Jiang Ru could do what she, Jiang Yanxin, couldn't do!

Jiang Yanxin was still thinking proudly about how to kick Jiang Ru out of the company, but she didn't know that Jiang Ru had already found a way to make the Lin Group agree to cooperate.

Jiang Ru took the plan to negotiate with Mrs. Lin and met Mrs. Lin at the beauty salon she often visited.

"Mrs. Lin, what a coincidence! I didn't expect to meet you here."

Jiang Ru pretended that it was a coincidence and said that they just met by chance.

"You like coming here too?" Mrs. Lin covered her mouth in surprise.

"Of course, I'm tired from work, so I came here to relax and get some beauty treatments. Let's go together."

Jiang Ru deliberately tried to get close to Mrs. Lin, and the two of them entered the beauty salon together.

At the beginning, I didn’t mention the cooperation, but instead accompanied Mrs. Lin on a beauty project.

After the beauty salon, Jiang Ru took the initiative to suggest that she accompany Mrs. Lin shopping: "The weather is very suitable today, I will go shopping with you."

"Okay." Mrs. Lin usually interacted with many people, and she just happened to be short of someone to go shopping with.

"Let me carry it for you."

Mrs. Lin bought a lot of things, big and small, and Jiang Ru helped her carry them. Jiang Ru's hands were almost full.

"Don't you think it's tiring to accompany me shopping?"

Mrs. Lin asked in surprise, because she always bought a lot of things every time and could not stop once she entered the mall, so over time no one was willing to accompany her shopping.

"It's my honor to go shopping with Mrs. Lin."

Jiang Ru behaved humbly and in moderation, which made Mrs. Lin happy and she couldn't stop smiling.

"You have quite a good eye."

The two continued shopping. After a whole day, Mrs. Lin was finally moved by Jiang Ru's sincerity.

Mrs. Lin took off her sunglasses, looking very cool and casual: "Tell me, you didn't come here just to accompany me shopping, did you? You came here for cooperation, right?"

"Yes, our company really wants to cooperate with you. I wonder if Mrs. Lin can give us a chance?"

"Let's find a place to sit down and talk."

The two of them came to a cafe and sat down together. Coffee was not the goal, the real thing was to be able to reach cooperation.

Mrs. Lin admired Jiang Ru very much and seemed very satisfied with her. She commented, "Your character is indeed good, but I don't know what your company's work ability is like."

"As long as you cooperate with our company, your profits will be reduced by 30%."

Jiang Ru directly reduced her own profits and also wanted to reach a cooperation with Mrs. Lin.

She could make up the difference with her own profits, but she had to get the cooperation with Mrs. Lin.

"You've lowered your profit margins so much that you're really not making any money. Why do you insist on cooperating with our company?"

Seeing that Jiang Ru had already reduced the profit to the lowest level, Mrs. Lin was somewhat tempted. This was the first time she had a business that was sure to make a profit.

"Being able to cooperate with the Lin Group and increase our company's visibility is already the biggest profit."

In front of Mrs. Lin, Jiang Ru was very good at saying nice things and kept praising the Lin Group. Mrs. Lin was so happy that she didn't know what to do.
