Urban Film and Television: Jiang Lai is the Top Choice

After answering the phone, Yang Chu asked, "Who is this?"

"Hello, are you Mr. Yang?"

"I am! And who are you?"

"Hello Mr. Yang, I am Kong Kong's father. My daughter has offended you. Please be lenient and take her there to apologize."

Upon hearing that it was Kong Kong's father, Yang Chu pondered for a moment and then agreed.

After all, Kong Kong was different from Qu Xiaoxiao and the others; she didn't provoke Yang Chu much.

When Kong's father heard that Yang Chu had agreed, he immediately told Yang Chu about another matter.

"It's like this, the fathers of the children who were with Kong Kong that day also came to me, wanting me to take them to apologize to Mr. Yang. I don't know what Mr. Yang's intention is?"

"There's no need for you to come over and apologize. Just have the property management send the apology over to us."

When Kong's father heard Yang Chu say this, he understood what it meant; it simply meant that he didn't want to see them.

"Understood, Mr. Yang! I'll inform them right away. Should my daughter go and apologize to Mr. Yang?"

Yang Chu was somewhat surprised by what Kong's father said, but he quickly understood what it meant.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Kong had a thing for giving away his daughter, and quickly said with a smile, "No need, I'm not interested in your daughter."

After saying that, Yang Chu hung up the phone and then dialed Li Yexi's video call.

"Focus on dealing with the Qu and Yao families; we don't need to worry about the others."

"Good sir!"

"Isn't the Qu family trying to get the endorsement for GL air conditioners in D country? I'll do some work on that. You just need to seize the opportunity and secure the project that the Qu family needs."

"Understood! We've already started contacting the project managers at the Qu family's company. I estimate that Qu Xiaoxiao's father will transfer the projects soon."

"Alright, since you know what to do, I won't waste any more time. You guys get on with your work!"

After hanging up the video call, Jiang Lai looked at Yang Chu and said, "There's no need to go to such extremes! It was just a verbal exchange."

Yang Chu shook his head and said, "I have to be ruthless! I don't even have a foundation in Shanghai right now. If I don't go all out, I won't even have the chance to put down roots in Shanghai."

Jiang Lai was about to excitedly ask Jiang Haokun for help, but the words caught in her throat. She sat down on the sofa dejectedly and said, "Then you figure it out!"

Yang Chu smiled and pulled Jiang Lai into his arms, and Jiang Lai obediently rested her head on Yang Chu's shoulder.

Yang Chu sighed and said, "I know you're planning for my future, but there are some things that have to be done. If we don't do them, we won't even have a future."

Jiang Lai leaned her head on Yang Chu's shoulder and looked at him, saying, "Then why don't you ask my brother to help you?"

Yang Chu said with a wicked smile, "Because I still need to step on your brother to get to the top. If I owe him a favor now, I won't have a chance to get to the top!"

Jiang Lai stared at Yang Chu's face for a long time, then suddenly sat up, pointed at Yang Chu and said, "So! You've been plotting against my brother from the very beginning, haven't you?"

Yang Chu shrugged and said, "What do you think?"

How could you do this? I've been with you all this time, how can you be so heartless?

Yang Chu chuckled and said, "Alright, stop looking like a wronged woman. I was indeed scheming against your brother, but he had no choice but to be schemed against. I told you last time about the four major groups' plans to target the Jiang Group. Even if I didn't step on your brother to get ahead, the four major groups would still benefit from it, so it's better for me to benefit. Your brother and your father understand all of this, otherwise why would they let you stay with me all this time?"

Jiang Lai lowered her head and pondered for a while, and then she understood what was going on. If the Jiang Group was targeted by the four major groups, it would definitely be divided up by them. However, if Yang Chu took over the Jiang Group at the right time, it would not only prevent the four major groups from benefiting, but also allow Yang Chu to make a name for himself in Shanghai. It could be said to be killing two birds with one stone.

Having figured this out, Jiang Lai said somewhat dejectedly, "So, the Jiang Group can't be saved?"

Yang Chu thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "It's hard to say. Even if we can save it, it might cause serious damage."

"Can't you help my brother?"

"If your brother hadn't warned me, helping him wouldn't be out of the question, but now I've already challenged him to a duel! If I help him now, wouldn't that be tantamount to bowing down to him?"

"How could that be! You helped my brother, and he's more than grateful to you!"

Yang Chu smiled and shook his head, saying, "Let's talk about this later! I will do my best to protect the Jiang Group."

In truth, Yang Chu didn't really intend to take over the Jiang Group. At most, he'd acquire its catering business; as for the rest, he'd see. He was being considerate, especially since Jiang Lai had been clinging to him lately!

Just as Jiang Lai was nestled in Yang Chu's arms watching, Yang Chu posted Qu Xiaoxiao's videos on various websites, and even sent them to the headquarters of GI Air Conditioning in Country D, with special mention of who the female protagonist was and the itinerary of the GI Air Conditioning delegation.

Jiang Lai slapped Yang Chu's chest in annoyance and said, "You're really mean! You could at least blur my face!"

Yang Chu said with an awkward laugh, "I just forgot, didn't I? Anyway, it's already been sent out, so it's fine if it wasn't censored!"

Just as the two were joking with each other, the property management staff brought over Kong Kong and his friends' apology.

Yang Chu looked at the items on the table, smiled, and shook his head, saying, "I thought they would just give me money directly! I didn't expect them to be just some collectibles."

Jiang Lai looked at the items on the coffee table and said, "Don't be so ungrateful. Most of the things here are hard to buy even with money. Yuan blue and white porcelain, chicken blood jade, glass-type jade, these are all good things."

Yang Chu smiled and stroked Jiang Lai's hair, saying, "If you like it, you can take it with you when you leave."

"Don't give me that! These things aren't for me, I don't want them."

Just as the two were deeply in love, there was another knock on Yang Chu's door.

Jiang Lai said irritably, "Your house is certainly lively."

Yang Chu laughed heartily and said, "When you're poor, no one cares even in the bustling city; when you're rich, distant relatives come calling even in the deep mountains. Doesn't that say it all? We're rich now too."

"Get out of here! You're really shameless."

Yang Chu opened the door with a smile, but his expression immediately changed.

Seeing that Yang Chu opened the door without saying a word, Jiang Lai quickly asked, "Who is it? Why aren't you coming in?"

The person outside the door also heard Jiang Lai's voice, their expression changed drastically, and they made a gesture to leave.

But Jiang Lai walked to the door and saw the person who had come in.

"What are you doing here? Are you looking for Yang Chu or me?"
