Jack was stunned!
Jiang Yi was also taken aback for a moment.
Old Jack was a cunning old fox; he had not only schemed against him but also against his own son.
If Old Jack hadn't spoken, everyone would have been fooled into believing he truly cared about Jack's life.
"If I rescue you, you will be quite a threat to me from now on!" Jiang Yi's gaze fell upon Old Jack.
"Do you intend to go back on your word?" Old Jack asked.
"I don't intend to go back on my word; I'm just stating it," Jiang Yi replied.
Hearing this, Old Jack's expression finally relaxed.
This was his only chance of survival. If Jiang Yi went back on his word, he would be completely finished; his life would surely be forfeit.
"Wait for my good news!"
After Jiang Yi spoke, he left the warehouse.
Outside the warehouse, he found Bai Sha and Hei Sha hiding and eavesdropping.
However, because Jiang Yi and Old Jack were not speaking very loudly, they hadn't heard everything clearly, only catching fragments of the conversation.
"Help me find a way to release Old Jack!" Jiang Yi said.
Upon hearing this, Hei Sha and Bai Sha immediately frowned.
They had not expected Jiang Yi to make such a request!
Their boss, Qiu Fang, had ordered them to guard Old Jack and his son. If Old Jack escaped the company, Qiu Fang would surely not let them off the hook, and their lives would be forfeit.
"Jiang Yi, don't push it too far!"
Bai Sha glared at Jiang Yi and said angrily, "It's already generous of us to let you meet Old Jack and his son. You actually want us to release Old Jack? Aren't you trying to get us killed? We can agree to other matters, but this one is absolutely out of the question!"
"Don't be angry!"
Jiang Yi smiled faintly. "I was just speaking casually. I know you definitely wouldn't agree to let Old Jack go!"
Hearing this, Bai Sha and Hei Sha displayed looks of displeasure.
They were unhappy that Jiang Yi was toying with them.
Jiang Yi glanced at them, then turned and walked towards the company's lobby.
Upon reaching the company lobby, Jiang Yi was about to look for Qiu Fang's secretary when he saw Qiu Fang's secretary coming down from upstairs and heading straight for him.
"Jiang Yi, you have too much nerve!"
The secretary finished speaking, pulled Jiang Yi into a corner of the lobby, and ensuring no one could hear, then said to Jiang Yi with a grave expression, "The boss said no one is allowed to see Old Jack and his son. The boss just gave the order, and you directly went to see Old Jack and his son. If the boss finds out about this, you'll be in big trouble!"
"Qiu Fang is already suspicious of me about many things, so it doesn't matter now!"
Jiang Yi replied.
Hearing this, the secretary slowly calmed down.
"How did you know I went to see Old Jack?" Jiang Yi asked.
"I've been the boss's secretary for so many years, and I could lose my life at any moment, so naturally, I have to arrange some of my own informants within the company!" the secretary said.
Jiang Yi smiled faintly.
This woman was quite smart.
"Does the boss know I met Old Jack?" Jiang Yi asked.
"The boss doesn't know!"
The secretary said, "I've already told my informant to keep quiet. If I don't let him speak, he definitely won't say anything carelessly. Don't worry."
"I came to find you just to remind you to be more careful with your actions and not to be so audacious. Wan Hui Company isn't a place where you can do whatever you want."
"Thanks!"
Jiang Yi said, then continued, "I'd like to ask for your help with something!"
"What is it?" the secretary asked.
"Find a way to persuade Qiu Fang to release Old Jack. I made a deal with Old Jack, and only by rescuing Old Jack will this deal be completed," Jiang Yi said.
"Don't even think about it!"
The secretary huffed.
"You should know very well that Old Jack and his son poisoned the boss and attempted to kill him. With the boss's personality, how could he possibly let Old Jack go!"
"I'm just a secretary, I don't have that much ability. You should find someone else. I can't help you, and I don't dare to help you. I might even lose my own life!"
"You're not just an ordinary secretary. Qiu Fang is suspicious of everyone now; the only person he still trusts is you!"
Jiang Yi said, then continued, "Tell Qiu Fang that Old Jack brought quite a few people with him this time to China. Old Jack has many accomplices in the capital. Killing Old Jack is useless; those accomplices will continue to target Qiu Fang."
"Only by releasing Old Jack can all his accomplices be lured out, and then they can all be caught in one sweep!"
"The boss is very smart; he won't believe it," the secretary said.
"He will!"
Jiang Yi raised an eyebrow.
"Don't forget, Qiu Fang is a very suspicious person. What he likes to do most is to eliminate all threats..."
"What you're saying has some truth to it, but it's still no," the secretary said.
Jiang Yi remained silent, took out a bank card from his pocket, and handed it to the secretary.
"What is this for?" the secretary asked.
"Since you're doing this for me, I naturally have to give you some benefits!"
Jiang Yi smiled faintly. "There's five million here. After the job is done, I'll give you another five million. You only have to say a few words to Qiu Fang to earn so much money; why wouldn't you?"
The secretary was tempted!
Over ten million was a considerable sum for the secretary.
If she received this ten million, coupled with the money Dongfang Mei had previously bribed her with, she would have a comfortable life for the rest of her days, and moreover, live a very extravagant life.
"It seems you're not interested in money, so forget it. I'll figure it out myself!" Jiang Yi said deliberately.
Then, Jiang Yi turned to leave.
"Wait!"
The secretary called out, "I can try, but if it's not successful, you'll still have to give me half the money..."
"Deal!"
Jiang Yi agreed and handed the bank card to the secretary.
"After this is accomplished, I will transfer the other five million to this card, making it ten million in total."
The secretary nodded and put the card away.
"You wait for me here. I'm going to see the boss now."
After the secretary spoke, she turned and walked upstairs.
Jiang Yi's lips curved upwards, and he sat on the lobby sofa, drinking tea while waiting for good news from the secretary.
As long as the secretary spoke to Qiu Fang as he had instructed, Qiu Fang would most likely agree to release Old Jack.
Jiang Yi had stayed at Wan Hui Company for such a long time, and he understood Qiu Fang's personality very well.
On the other side, the secretary had already arrived at Qiu Fang's office.
Seeing the secretary, Qiu Fang took a deep breath and said, "Jiang Yi, that kid truly has some skills. If it weren't for him, my life would probably be gone!"
"He does have skills!" the secretary said.
"After Jiang Yi completely cures the poison in my body, I must kill him!"
Qiu Fang revealed a sinister cold smile.
"I've suspected him for a long time. He's the one who poses the greatest threat to me. Only when he dies can I be at peace."
