Chapter 358: Treating Life as Nothing
hermos on the table and said in a flustered and cautious voice.The two remained in their original positions, as if no one had heard her.Zhou Miao swallowed nervously, her legs turning to jelly as she..."It's normal for drug launches to be delayed, this is responsible for all patients, why call it indirect murder" He Hanchuan asked rhetorically.
This sentence was like a basin of cold water, drenching Xiang Wan from head to toe. Even her blood turned cold.
He, like Old Master He, doesn't regard human life as precious at all...
"If you have something to ask, just say it straight. Don't beat around the bush." He Hanchuan raised an eyebrow slightly and wanted to reach out to wipe the sweat from her forehead.
But when he touched her forehead, she instinctively moved away.
He withdrew his hand and said nothing, just stared at her.
Towards Evening evaded his gaze, her heart pounding rapidly, "I didn't want to ask anything, I just felt that if Old Master He died like this, it would... be a little scary."
He didn't speak.
She looked up and met his gaze. His eyes were deep and fathomless, like a whirlpool, as if they would draw her very soul into them.
It's like...he saw right through all her thoughts.
In a daze, Xiang Wan felt that the man before her at this moment overlapped with the image of Old Master He. Under his gaze, she felt weak in her limbs, her palms sweating, and even her lip trembled uncontrollably.
Just when she thought He Hanchuan would ask her what was wrong, he withdrew his gaze, "Mrs. Xiang passed away, you're too nervous."
"...Hmm." Xiang Wan wiped the sweat from her palm on the blanket, suddenly at a loss for words.
He waited for a while, but didn't hear her say anything else. His eyes dimmed for a moment. He stood up and buttoned his shirt, which had come undone from running. "Rest well, I'm heading back to the company."
She didn't want to tell him, and he didn't pressure her.
This can only prove that he wasn't good enough for her, at the very least not good enough to make her completely trust him.
Yuao-wan mumbled incoherently, her mind racing with guesses about whether he had seen through her thoughts. By the time she came to her senses, he was gone, leaving her alone in the ward.
For some reason, her heart suddenly felt empty and unbearably heavy.
-
After returning to the ward, Jiang Qingran received a call from the newly appointed CFO of the Jiang Group.
This director had previously led her, almost like a mentor, and the two have always had a good relationship.
"Qingran, I just received some good news: Apparently, Mr. Liu and the others wanted to have a good talk with the Xiang family, making Mr. Liu the new chairman. But for some reason, the talks fell through!"
"Now Mr. Liu has made it clear that he will sell all of his shares in the Xiang Group, as long as the price is right, he will make the deal!"
"He has 25% in his hands. If we take it, and then form an alliance with Mr. Li and Mr. Wang, saying that the Xiangshi Group is within our grasp wouldn't be too much! What do you think, shall we do this"
Xiang Jia only had 35% of the shares in Xiang Jianguo's hands, which was far from absolute control.
If the Jiang Group takes Liu Dong's shares and unites with others, they will have more voting power than Xiang Jian Guo.
Jiang Qingran was very moved, but she didn't make a decision immediately.
Even if Mr. Liu agreed to sell at a low price, 25% of the shares of the Xiang Group is not a small amount. The Jiang Group couldn't come up with that much money for a while.
"Qinger, think about it. Now that the Jiang family and Lin family are suppressing you, it's because your previous bad reputation dragged down the stock price and caused the Jiang Group to evaporate billions out of thin air!"
"But if you buy Xiangshi Group shares at a low price now and sell them at a high price later, not only can you make a big profit for Jiangshi Group and win back the hearts of the elders."
"On the other hand, while I still hold shares and have a say, I could make several wrong decisions to create chaos for the Xiang family group. It's a win-win situation, isn't it"
Current circumstances make Jiang Qingran feel anxious, and the CFO's proposal seems very friendly from every angle.
She was indeed moved, but her rationality still told her not to make such a hasty decision.
"Such a big thing, it's impossible for me to just do it with my mouth. You have to give me some time to consider."
The CFO didn't push hard, "That's reasonable. But you better make a decision soon, after all, there's more than just you who wants shares from Mr. Liu's hands. The more competitors there are, the higher the price we'll have to pay."
"Well, I understand." Jiang Qingran then asked about the company's recent financial situation and some major policy issues, then hung up the phone, rarely showing a slight bit of entanglement.
Since those "negative news" about the Xiang family came out, several good projects of the Xiang Group have been snatched back by the Jiang Group.
And after her suicide, there were fewer people who scolded her, and they all went to scold Xiang Wan instead. The stock price of the Jiang Group rose twice and then stabilized growth.
She also subtly told her father and grandfather that she had arranged all of this, hoping they would see the benefits and allow her to return to the company.
But they didn't say a word about it, and even after she committed suicide, all they did was visit for a while and then nothing more...
The longer this goes on, the harder it will be for her to go back to the company.
Jiang Qingran bit her lip, thinking of the director's proposal, her heart began to race again.
Logic told her that she absolutely couldn't be rash in such a major matter, but emotionally, she couldn't control the excitement and exhilaration surging through her.
If this succeeds, even if her father and grandfather disapprove of her returning to the company, she can go to those shareholders of the Jiang Group and talk about it!
As long as she can bring them enough profit, they will welcome her back to the company more than anyone else!

He Hanchuan got into the car, but he didn't start it.
He lowered his eyes, carefully recalling from when things started to feel off with A-Wan, and what she had said and done during those times.
Beep —
Beep —
The sudden vibration of a cell phone.
He Jianchuan picked up his phone, glanced at the caller ID, and answered.
"General He, I've called Qingran as you instructed. Based on my understanding of her, she's an ambitious person who can't stand being exiled like this. For the sake of returning to the company, she will definitely follow your plan." A woman's voice came from the other end of the phone.
He lightly tapped his fingers on the steering wheel. "I heard that General Zhou is Qingran's master, and that you two have a very good relationship. How can I know you haven't plotted against me with Qingran"
"President He is joking," said General Manager Zhou. "I'm a practical person, I listen to whoever can bring me more and greater benefits."
He smiled lightly, “Doing this, aren't you afraid Qingran will be heartbroken”
"She's like me, she should understand. I've worked hard at Jiangshi Group for so many years, besides the meager salary, nothing else. What I did is understandable." said General Manager Zhou.
