"Master Wan, please!"
Jiang Guangming was brought into a luxurious villa. Along the way, Rong had covered his eyes, and only now was the blindfold removed. An old man sat there, staring at him like a hawk.
"Hello, Master Wan!" The old man was the same one Jiang Guangming had encountered in the hospital last time. After adjusting to the light, Jiang Guangming quickly greeted him.
"Xiao Jiang, what's this? Want to leave Ningzhou?" The old man continued to scrutinize Jiang Guangming, who stood before him with utmost respect.
Leave Ningzhou? Would I starve to death? You live in such a nice villa while I'm stuck in a shabby rental! Jiang Guangming silently cursed a few times in his heart but maintained a smile on his face.
"Yes, the old master is having a birthday soon, so I need to head back!"
"Oh, that's true. Your father is indeed celebrating his birthday. But there's still some time left. I think you don't need to be anxious about rushing back today!"
"Master Wan, do you have any instructions?" This was Jiang Guangming's second visit to this villa. The first time he thought it was a good thing, but now it seemed like the beginning of misfortune. He doubted there would be anything good this time either. This old man must have done countless unscrupulous deeds, which is why the exact location of the villa was kept from outsiders.
"I want you to join Jiahua Clothing Company as an executive and act as my informant there!"
What? Join Jiahua Clothing Company? I'm barely managing to avoid Jiang Jun; how can I enter his company? Besides, can I just waltz in?
Seeing Jiang Guangming's hesitation, the old man pressed further: "Not willing?"
"No, I'm willing! It's just... will Jiahua even want me?" Jiang Guangming replied cautiously.
"I'll make a call to Old Qin first; then you can ask them yourself! Since Jiahua Clothing Company has acquired your former Taiping Apparel Company, those old executives like you can still be useful. Moreover, with Lin Shihui gone, why wouldn't they welcome you?"
This old man either genuinely didn't know that Jiahua Clothing Company had changed hands or was pretending to be clueless! However, he might not have been aware of it since he had been elsewhere recently. Jiang Guangming didn't know how to respond and remained silent; he dared not speak the truth.
The old man took out his phone and dialed a number.
"Old Qin, it's Xiao Wan! Taiping Apparel has gone bankrupt and has been acquired by your Jiahua Clothing Company. The two original shareholders of Taiping Apparel—Lin Shihui has already jumped off a building. Jiang Guangming is at his wit's end and has come to me for help. Should I send him over to your Jiahua Clothing Company for a job? What do you think?"
Damn it, who’s begging you? Hearing him say that made Jiang Guangming furious inside but he couldn't show it.
Old Qin chuckled upon receiving the call. If it weren't for your meddling in our Southeast Province back then, how would things have turned out this way?
"Master Wan, since you've asked, I naturally can't refuse such a small matter. However, Jiahua Clothing Company has already been transferred to someone else; I can't interfere anymore! The new chairman is someone familiar with Jiang Guangming; let him handle it himself!"
"Oh? Thank you, Old Qin!" The old man turned to Jiang Guangming: "Jiahua Clothing Company has a new chairman now? Who is it?"
"It's Yang Zhao's son, Jiang Jun!" Jiang Guangming had no choice but to tell the truth.
"What? Yang Zhao's son—the young one? How did you all lose to him instead?"
This situation was indeed puzzling. What did Old Qin mean by transferring such a large company to a young person? And that young person was Yang Zhao's son!
"Someone must be helping him from the shadows!"
That made sense! Old Qin appeared to transfer the company to someone else, but in reality, he was manipulating things behind the scenes. This way, he avoided a direct conflict with me. The old man thought through this logic.
"Jiang Jun probably doesn't know the real cause of his father's death, right? He must never find out; otherwise... You should go to Jiahua Company. I'll have Rong take you!" The old man didn't care whether Jiang Guangming agreed or not.
In such a large family, the hired bodyguards also served as drivers.
Jiang Guangming had no choice but to cover his eyes again and get into the car, feeling anxious inside.
"Mr. Jiang, you seem troubled?" After leaving the villa for a while, Rong removed Jiang Guangming's blindfold and noticed his unease.
"Yes, I really don't want to go to Jiahua Company! There's an enemy of mine there, and I'm afraid of running into him!" Jiang Guangming deflected Rong's concern. However, it was true; wasn't he now an enemy of Jiang Jun?
"Don't worry, I'll go in with you and say we're relatives. Let's see who dares to bully you!"
Oh? That was a good idea. Since Rong could work as a bodyguard for the Wan family, he must be quite capable; dealing with Jiang Jun shouldn't be a problem.
"Alright! Thank you, Rong!"
When they arrived at Minghuang Tower, Rong got out of the car as well. After all, Master Wan hadn't said to return immediately; staying a bit longer wouldn't hurt.
Upon reaching the eighth floor, the receptionist politely asked, "Gentlemen, who are you looking for?"
"I'm looking for your chairman; this is my bodyguard!"
"Our chairman is available; you can go in!"
Jiang Guangming asked Rong to wait at the reception while he went to find Jiang Jun.
Upon seeing Jiang Guangming, Jiang Jun couldn't help but sneer: Hey, he came knocking on my door! Perfect timing for me to deal with him!
Although Lin Shihui hadn't mentioned Jiang Guangming by name, it didn't mean Jiang Jun was unaware. He found it somewhat strange that Lin Shihui chose not to say anything.
"Jiang Jun, could you arrange a position for me at Jiahua Clothing Company?" Jiang Guangming steeled himself and spoke up.
Jiang Jun closed the door and pressed down on Jiang Guangming's shoulder to make him sit down. He spoke slowly, "Uncle Ming, there are no positions available at Jiahua Clothing Company. Let me think... A cleaner at Dongsheng Company just resigned a few days ago; how about you take that position?"
An insult? The former 'President Jiang' of Dongsheng Company now reduced to cleaning? Wouldn't everyone in the company laugh their heads off?
"Jiang Jun, let me tell you! I'm not here alone today; I brought a bodyguard! If you don't treat me well, I'll have him take care of you and avenge my son!" Jiang Guangming exploded with anger. Rong was waiting outside; otherwise, he wouldn't have dared to raise his voice.
"Oh? You brought a bodyguard? I'm so scared!" Upon hearing this, Jiang Jun became intrigued.
"Yes. So tell me what position you'll give me; if I'm not satisfied, I'll have my bodyguard come in and talk to you!"
"I already said, I can only offer you a janitor position at Dongsheng Company!"
"Rong, come here quickly, this is my enemy, insulting me!" Jiang Guangming shouted as he opened the door towards the reception area.
Rong immediately rushed to the doorway. A smile appeared on Jiang Guangming's face as he prepared to enjoy the show.
"Ah, it's you!" Upon seeing Jiang Jun inside, Rong turned and ran. No way was he going to stick around; if he ran slowly, he'd end up in the hospital.
Damn, it turns out he's Master Wan's bodyguard. How did he end up as Jiang Guangming's bodyguard? Since Rong had already run off, Jiang Jun couldn't be bothered with him anymore; otherwise, no matter how fast he ran, it would still be too slow.
