Urban Film and Television: Jiang Lai is the Top Choice

Chapter 488 To Whom Can the Heavy Responsibility Be Entrusted?

Hearing Yang Chu's words, Jiang Lai said with some relief, "Luckily, I haven't found a suitable person to entrust this to. I haven't sent the jade carving out yet. If someone else takes it, it will be a huge problem. What about Jiahe?"

"What else can we do! Send someone to pick up Jiahe right now!"

Jiang Lai asked hesitantly, "Then... will it affect your plans?"

"Don't worry! It doesn't matter how many people come here, as long as they don't reveal that I'm not injured."

Jiang Lai nodded and said, "Understood! I'll call Jiahe now."

After leaving the ward, Jiang Lai called Peng Jiahe and asked him to bring the jade carving over.

Peng Jiahe was speechless when Jiang Lai told her to bring the jade carvings. "Those three jade carvings are obviously fake. Why would I bring them?"

"Stop talking nonsense! Just bring it over. I'll have someone come pick you up right now."

"Okay! Then... should we let Sister Guan know?"

Jiang Lai thought for a moment, glanced at the ward, and nodded, saying, "Let them come over together! We've taken advantage of them, so we should give them an explanation."

"Okay! I'll inform Sister Guan now and pick her up to go to the hospital together later."

"Row!"

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Lai went back into the ward and told Yang Chu about Guan Juer's upcoming visit.

Yang Chu frowned upon hearing this and asked, "What is Guan Juer doing right now?"

"This... I really don't know. Why don't you ask Jialuo to check?"

As soon as Jiang Lai finished speaking, Li Jialuo said to Yang Chu and Jiang Lai, "Miss Guan Guan is still an intern at that foreign company. She is expected to be promoted to a full-time position in a while."

Yang Chu glared at Jiang Lai speechlessly and said, "You're really bold. Guan Guan works for a foreign company, and you dare to give her the jade carving. If those foreign companies get the news, Guan Guan will be in danger."

Jiang Lai said somewhat embarrassedly, "I didn't think that much at the time. I only thought that there were a few outsiders who were sincere towards you, one was Guan Juer, and the other was Gan Jing. Since I couldn't contact Gan Jing, I could only leave it to Guan Juer."

"Then why don't you think of giving it to Xu Li?"

Jiang Lai turned her head away haughtily and said, "I can't trust Xu Li. Every time she comes to you, she's all about having a good time and doesn't recognize you once she's done her business. I can't trust her."

Yang Chu smiled and shook his head, not saying much. If Yang Chu were to entrust an important task to someone, he certainly wouldn't entrust it to Xu Li.

Compared to Xu Li, Guan Juer may be slightly less capable, but she is still trustworthy.

Xu Like, however, is different; her thoughts are not as simple as Guan Juer's.

Jiang Lai saw Yang Chu smile and shake his head without saying anything, so she assumed that Yang Chu was angry.

"What are you doing! It's just that I don't trust Xu Li, is it really necessary to get angry with me like this!"

"Which eye of yours saw me angry? I just think you did the right thing. If it were me, I wouldn't have entrusted Xu Li with such an important task."

"Then what were you thinking about just now?"

Yang Chu said with a wicked smile, "You really want to know?"

"Stop talking nonsense! Stop keeping me in suspense."

Yang Chu smiled and said, "Actually, I didn't think much about it. It's just that from your perspective, if you really want to entrust someone with an important task, who should you entrust it to?"

"Have you decided who to entrust this to?"

Yang Chu shook his head and said, "I really didn't expect that! Just like you thought of Gan Jing and Guan Juer, both of them are not capable enough. Even if we give them the jade carving, they simply cannot manage such a huge resource."

"If you had to choose, who would you pick?"

Yang Chu sighed and looked at Jiang Lai, saying, "If I had to make a choice, I would give the jade carving to Yufei."

After listening, Jiang Lai frowned and thought for a while before saying, "She has the ability, but she couldn't possibly manage such a huge amount of resources, and... I don't trust her either."

Yang Chu nodded and said, "You're right. Yufei is indeed not the best choice. She's not capable enough, and she's not entirely trustworthy. But there's one thing you haven't considered: Yufei knows how to be patient. After she gets the jade carving, she'll definitely go quiet and won't even use our resources."

Jiang Lai frowned and said, "What's the point of giving her the jade carving?"

"The greatest significance lies in its apparent meaninglessness. Many people know about our family's jade carving business. What do you think will happen if they can't find the jade carving?"

After thinking for a while, Jiang Lai said, "We certainly wouldn't dare to act rashly; at most, we'll slowly erode your assets."

"That's right. As long as the jade carving doesn't appear, they won't dare to make any rash moves. Everyone understands the principle of 'the nail that sticks out gets hammered down,' and what we lack most is time."

Jiang Lai nodded and said, "I see! I was thinking of giving the jade carving to Jiahe and letting Jiahe make a big fuss, but it seems I was wrong."

Yang Chu rolled her eyes at Jiang Lai and said, "You're still too impulsive. You need to be more thoughtful in the future."

Jiang Lai pouted and said, "Okay."

Jiang Lai and Yang Chu chatted for a while before Peng Jiahe and Guan Juer arrived.

As Jiang Lai walked out of the ward, she saw Guan Juer and Peng Jiahe rushing to enter the ward.

Jiang Lai quickly pulled the two of them back and said, "Alright, what are you going in for? Sit down first, I have something to ask you."

Peng Jiahe looked at Jiang Lai with red eyes and said, "Let go, I want to see Brother Yang."

Jiang Lai grabbed Peng Jiahe's hand and squeezed it hard, saying sternly, "Calm down! Yang Chu needs to rest right now. What if something happens because you're so emotional?"

Peng Jiahe sensed Jiang Lai's hint and glanced at Guan Juer, roughly understanding what was going on.

However, Peng Jiahe continued acting, saying, "Then when can I see Brother Yang?"

"Don't worry! I will definitely let you see him, but not now."

Peng Jiahe nodded and said, "Okay, I'll calm down!"

Jiang Lai saw that Peng Jiahe understood her hint and quickly changed the subject.

"What about the jade carving?"

Peng Jiahe nodded quickly, took out the jade carving from his bag, and said, "It's here!"

Jiang Lai opened the jade carving, looked at it, and said, "It's good that it's not lost."

Then Jiang Lai handed the jade carving to Li Jialuo and said, "Keep this jade carving safe for now. We'll decide what to do with it after Yang Chu wakes up."

After Jiang Lai learned what the jade carving represented, she quickly handed it to Li Jialuo, asking him to retract his previous order first.

If someone takes advantage of this gap to create another jade carving and issue some orders, that would be troublesome.
