CHAPTER 426: CHAPTER 426

Jiang’s Old Mansion——

Jiang Tairan was sitting in the main seat, staring intently at Jiang Guosheng and Jiang Weiwei, and asked coldly:

"Feng Mian told me that our car company’s veteran engineers have collectively left, and now only a few greenhorns fresh out of school are fumbling around in the company. Is this true?"

Jiang Dinghai and Jiang Fengmian stood to one side, coldly watching Jiang Guosheng and his daughter.

After graduating from university, Jiang Fengmian went straight to work for Jiang’s.

He had originally thought that the special management position for the vehicular project would be his.

After all, he was the only one among the Jiang family grandchildren currently working at Jiang’s!

But then Jiang Weiwei, the parachuted newcomer, snatched what he had almost gotten his hands on.

Jiang Fengmian was extremely irritated, feeling that he couldn’t even hold his head up in front of his girlfriend Yu Zhiqi.

Jiang Fengmian even made a fuss with Jiang Dinghai, asking his father to oppose this unfair treatment.

But Jiang Dinghai said, "It’s no use opposing it this time; the old man is compensating the big house family. If you really want this position, just keep an eye on Jiang Weiwei. When she makes a mistake, tell the old master."

Right, Jiang Dinghai knew that Jiang Tairan had caused Jiang Weiwei’s disgrace and felt somewhat guilty about it.

So this time, in terms of position arrangements, Jiang Tairan would not treat Jiang Weiwei harshly.

Even if others opposed and caused a commotion, it would only make the old master displeased.

It’s better to wait until Jiang Weiwei makes a mistake, then expose her wrongdoing to the old master.

In this way, the old master’s guilt toward Jiang Weiwei would be replaced by anger, and their second house wouldn’t earn the old master’s displeasure for making a scene but rather praise for uncovering the wrongdoing.

Maybe the old master would give Jiang Weiwei’s position directly to Jiang Fengmian?

As Jiang Dinghai had expected, Jiang Weiwei, who had no actual experience, quickly caused a mess in the company.

Jiang Fengmian was astute, casually mentioning the state of affairs when Jiang Tairan brought over new tea.

This led to Jiang Tairan’s furious outburst...

Jiang Guosheng coldly glanced at Jiang Dinghai and Jiang Fengmian in the corner, knowing it must have been these two who were playing tricks.

But as things stood, Jiang Guosheng knew that covering up for Jiang Weiwei now would only drag himself down.

Jiang Guosheng then revealed how Jiang Weiwei, not knowing how to run the business, had dismissed Shao Qiongzhi and the other veteran engineers.

Jiang Tairan was naturally furious: "More trouble than help! Do you know how many years the company took to cultivate those veteran engineers? You just joined the company and you dismissed them all?"

"Grandfather, I know my mistake. In the future, I will consult more with you and dad before making any decisions. Please, give me another chance!"

Jiang Weiwei quickly admitted her fault, hoping that Jiang Tairan would not pursue the matter further.

But Jiang Tairan said, "Enough! I gave you a chance, and you’ve endangered a team of senior engineers. If I give you another one, I’m afraid you’ll bankrupt me!"

Jiang Weiwei was about to speak; she had finally obtained this position, how could she be dismissed over such a trivial matter?

If Shao Qiongzhi and others found out, they would mock her behind her back.

But before Jiang Weiwei could speak, Jiang Guosheng hurriedly whispered to her: "Weiwei!"

Jiang Weiwei quickly looked at Jiang Guosheng and saw him staring at her coldly, signaling her not to speak anymore.

Jiang Weiwei understood that Jiang Guosheng hoped she wouldn’t confront Jiang Tairan any further, lest he too get dragged down.

But Jiang Weiwei was unwilling.

This position was her compensation for being tormented by that dead fatty for an entire night!

How could she accept it just disappearing into thin air?

But Jiang Tairan didn’t even wait for her response before he said to Jiang Fengmian, "Fengmian, you will take over the role in special project management. Remember to learn from Weiwei’s experience!"

Jiang Fengmian and Jiang Dinghai quickly exchanged a look before Jiang Fengmian hurriedly replied, "Thank you, Grandfather. Fengmian will definitely learn from her experience and consult Grandfather and Uncle before making any important decisions."

Jiang Tairan nodded in satisfaction.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Weiwei asked him, "Grandfather, if Fengmian takes over special project management, what will I do?"

Jiang Tairan gave Jiang Weiwei a cold look: "You’re not cut out for this! You don’t need to come to the company anymore! The piano competition semifinals are starting soon, aren’t they? You better focus on practicing your piano, and wait for Grandfather to find a good family for you to marry into."

Jiang Weiwei felt her heart sink to the bottom.

Emperor City, Yunfeng Camping Area––

After learning about Jiang Moxi’s camping trip, Fu Youhan drove to Yunfeng Camping Area that very day.

On the way there, he was quite worried that Jiang Moxi might change her mind and not show up.

But upon arriving at the camping area and seeing Jiang Moxi setting up her tent, his last bit of unease vanished.

Jiang Moxi was dressed in a light blue tracksuit, with her long hair simply tied into a high ponytail, presenting an image of slim grace and vibrant energy.

Fu Youhan quickly approached her, fixating on Jiang Moxi’s beautiful profile, "Xixi, is this your tent? It’s quite big, let me help you set it up."

Turning around, Jiang Moxi saw Fu Youhan.

He was dressed in a black tracksuit with matching sports shoes, his eyebrows sharp and his presence imposing.

This was a noticeable contrast to his usual business-suited, authoritative CEO demeanor.

It made Jiang Moxi take a second look at him unconsciously.

Indeed, even though they were now separated, Jiang Moxi wouldn’t deny Fu Youhan’s handsome looks and exceptional physique were one in a million.

Especially in that area...

Well, disregarding the disastrous end to their wedding, Jiang Moxi felt she hadn’t been short-changed in their time together.

"Xixi, you..." Seeing Jiang Moxi staring at him absentmindedly, Fu Youhan got excited, almost seizing the opportunity to step forward and embrace the person he yearned for day and night.

But as soon as he moved, Jiang Moxi immediately averted her gaze, "No need, thank you."

"Xixi, tents are difficult to set up, and besides, your wounds probably haven’t fully healed yet. Setting up tents could aggravate them."

Fu Youhan was about to continue persuading her when suddenly Si Lin’s voice came from inside the half-assembled tent.

"I’ve got her tent covered, there’s no need for the overzealous Third Master Fu to help."

Fu Youhan’s expression tightened subtly and he quickly turned to look at Si Lin crawling out from the tent.

Si Lin was dressed in a black and blue color-block sports jacket, holding tent pegs in his hand.

Fu Youhan’s gaze turned cold as ice.

"Why are you here?"

Fu Youhan had thought that today would be a chance for him to be alone with Jiang Moxi at the camping event, where he was sure to find an opportunity to clear the air between them.

But Si Lin’s sudden appearance caught him off guard.

"Of course it’s because Xixi invited me over," Si Lin said, his face full of provocation in the sunlight.

Fu Youhan’s gaze turned dark and deep. After a cold glance at Si Lin, he looked back at Jiang Moxi.

"Xixi, did you really come with him?"

But before Jiang Moxi could answer, Si Lin added, "Could it be false? We’re even sharing a tent tonight!"

Instantly, Fu Youhan’s eyebrows sharpened with anger, "Xixi, is that true?"
