Desire possesses, unable to escape from the palm of my roommate's uncle

"The Pei family kid said, you want to see me?"

Not long after Jiang Qingyan sat down in Jianxueli, an old man with white hair and a reddish-brown Zhongshan suit walked in with a cane.

Jiang Qingyan stood up, nodded and greeted: "Hello, senior. I am Jiang Qingyan, the current CEO of Shihe Capital."

"Haha," the old man said, although he was in his seventies, he was in good spirits and spoke with full energy: "I recognize you, Jiang Qingyan. Who in J City doesn't know you?"

Jiang Qingyan shook his head: "Senior, you are too kind. I am just an ordinary businessman."

"If you were just an ordinary businessman, why would I come to your appointment and have a meal with you?" The old man's words were full of praise for Jiang Qingyan.

But Jiang Qingyan remained unmoved. She was neither complacent about being affirmed by her superiors nor worried about being flattered.

He just sat at the table and served the old man a cup of tea.

"What is this...?" The old man took a sip, thinking it would be some famous and fine tea. However, after tasting it, he found that although the tea was sweet and mellow and could be considered a fine product, it was not something that was worth buying.

"This is newly harvested tea from the suburban project," Jiang Qingyan said calmly. "Snowflake tea is usually only produced in the south, but we've introduced new planting techniques, improved the environment, and taken advantage of the greater temperature difference between day and night in the north to grow a new tea with a sharper aroma."

Hearing Jiang Qingyan mention the suburban project, the old man remained calm and took another sip of tea.

When all the dishes were served, Jiang Qingyan introduced them to the old man one by one. The two of them had a pleasant conversation, but Jiang Qingyan never mentioned the purpose of his visit, which made the old man, who had been upright all his life, a little uneasy.

After he was about eight-tenths full, he put down his chopsticks and said, "Qing Yan, I think I know why you're here."

Jiang Qingyan finally waited until he expressed his opinion first, and he put down his chopsticks calmly after hearing it.

He had good food and drink here, but Fu Miaoxi was suffering somewhere. To Jiang Qingyan, the pain was no different from being tortured to death by slicing.

"But I've been retired for many years, so I really can't help you."

Jiang Qingyan was very good at cultivating his Qi, and his expression was completely calm. "Old gentleman, you misunderstood. Although I have something to ask of you, it is not about those cases."

"Oh? That is?"

The old man didn't quite believe it. Although he was retired, he was still sharp-eyed and sharp-eared. He knew that Jiang Qingyan had made a big fuss in X this afternoon for one person, which shocked the top leaders. Many people were worried that their interests would be damaged, and planned to take the opportunity to bring Jiang Qingyan down.

Today, undercurrents surged behind the tranquil J City, with a lot of capital and power wrestling underneath. At the center of this huge vortex was the calm and intelligent Jiang Qingyan in front of him.

"I wanted to thank my predecessor for speaking up for me on the suburban project."

The old man looked a little puzzled.

Jiang Qingyan continued, "I heard that the reason why the senior praised our project is because among the many proposals, Shihe's plan is the most beneficial to people's livelihood."

When this was mentioned, the old man stopped hiding his feelings and said, "That's right."

He sighed, "Things that benefit the people will flourish, while those that harm them will perish. I despise those superficial projects. What I want is tangible benefits and long-term business."

"Those people nowadays, ah." The old man also had a bad temper. "They're always thinking about cutting costs, thinking about pocketing the money, and hoping for something good to happen. In the end, the bold ones become corrupt officials, the timid ones become mediocre officials, and the ones who are neither good nor bad end up running away halfway through their work."

"You are different. A gentleman has his own way. You can accomplish things."

Jiang Qingyan shook his head: "But what I'm after is not just the benefit of this moment and this place."

He stated his purpose: "Let's be frank. I'm inviting you to a banquet today because I hope you can help introduce me to someone higher up."

"There are differences between officials and businessmen, and there are still areas where I am unable to reach them."

The old man looked shocked: "You...you want to see that person?"

Jiang Qingyan nodded with a dull expression, obviously not thinking that his request was outrageous.

"You're already incredibly powerful in J City. Even if those guys want to take advantage of you, they'll never be able to shake your foundation. Why take such a risk?"

"Hands and eyes that can see through everything?" Jiang Qingyan laughed at himself, "Senior, you must have heard of this story, right?"

"The Zhou emperor had nine tripods. The king of Chu asked about them. His intention was not to obtain the tripods but to protect the whole world."

"If I endure this anger today, who knows how much more anger I will have to endure in the future?"

His tone was leisurely and his eyes were indifferent, but every word struck the old man's heart, shocking him so much that it made him re-evaluate the high-spirited young man in front of him.

"Okay," the old man put down the cup. "Since you have the courage to say this and the ability to do so, I will help you."

"But you have to show some sincerity. Otherwise, even if I introduce you, the person may not necessarily meet you."

Jiang Qingyan took out his phone, opened a document, and pushed it in front of the old man: "Don't worry, senior, this is my sincerity. I am the only one in this world who can accomplish this."

"Boss!" Li Zhen was waiting outside Tangli Cottage, and immediately followed Jiang Qingyan when he saw her come out.

"Our people have basically surrounded the area, but there are so many places inside that we still haven't found Miss Fu."

Li Zhen said bitterly, "Besides, there are traffic controls in many places on the street right now. It's obviously to hinder our movement."

"Our people can't get in, and they can't get out either." Jiang Qingyan had anticipated this: "As long as Fu Miaomiao is still in J City, it's fine. Once they take her out, I'm really not sure what they will do to Fu Miaomiao."

"Don't worry, boss. We've got that area cordoned off like a bulletproof barrel. Also, a few banks have started to disrupt our funding chain. Luckily, we have enough cash in our account to last us through the year-end settlements. I just don't know if there will be any unexpected events."

"If Shi He's funds are insufficient, let Chen Jue use our underground account to make up for it. It will only take a few days and it will be enough for the turnover."

After Jiang Qingyan dealt with these things, he fell into unprecedented anxiety.

"What should we do now?" It was already ten o'clock in the evening, and Li Zhen was also feeling headache because there was no news from Fu Miaoxi.

"Oh, boss, there's some bad news. Si Chen's phone is turned off. I wonder if he knows we're investigating him."

Jiang Qingyan sighed: "They must have known that among the people they kidnapped, there was someone very important to me."

"Fortunately, as long as I can hold on and don't show any signs of decline, they won't dare to do anything to Fu Miaomiao."

"So can today's thing be accomplished?"

Jiang Qingyan nodded: "Yes, but it will take time, maybe one day, or maybe two days."

He looked at the passers-by leaning on each other on the roadside, his face frosty: "If Fu Miaomiao can't hold on and something happens, none of the accomplices will be able to escape."

On the other side, Fu Miaoxi was almost unable to hold on.

After Si Chen brought her back to their laboratory base, she changed her clothes, had her blood drawn, and underwent a series of gynecological examinations as required.

Everything was going well, but when they learned that her period had just passed, several people dressed as doctors discussed it and decided to force her to ovulate, otherwise she would not be able to finish her work in time.

After just a few injections of ovulation-stimulating injections, Fu Miaoxi already had symptoms of nausea and vomiting, and she was also forced to take a bunch of medicine, which made her feel uncomfortable all over.

Just when she thought she only needed to endure the torture and wait for Jiang Qingyan to come, the people in the base suddenly received a notice that someone was investigating the case.

"Fuck, someone said we kidnapped someone we shouldn't have, and they're investigating. They told us to be careful."

"Who?"

"Isn't that the one who was recently brought back?"

"**!" The person who seemed to be the head of the base saw Fu Miaoxi still in the medical room, so he went up and slapped her in the face. The slap was so strong that blood began to flow from the corner of Fu Miaoxi's mouth.

"That's what you little bitch caused, right?"

Si Chen wanted to stop him, but in the end he just backed down and gave up.

"Just wait. When you're well again in a few days, I'll vaccinate you first. Even if you're rescued, what can you do?"

"Throw her to Room 3. There's no heating in that room. I'm going to make her suffer."

The doctor stopped him and said, "If you're planning on getting pregnant, you still have to keep warm, otherwise the quality of your eggs won't be high enough."

The leader's eyes rolled. "Put a heating pad on her belly. Don't you have one? Hahaha, it's the one that those women couldn't stand the heat from a few days ago."
