Jiang Yi watched Li Ping’s retreating figure, his brows furrowing slightly.
If it were in the past, his mother wouldn’t have said such things to him.
The words "decisive and ruthless" coming from her mouth felt strange to Jiang Yi.
"I think what the Chairman said is right. We should be decisive and ruthless when dealing with these people; we can’t be soft-hearted," Shen Lu said.
"Of course. Even if my mother didn’t say it, I know what to do!" Jiang Yi replied.
As it was getting late, Jiang Yi returned to his room.
The night passed without incident.
The next morning, after Jiang Yi got up, he walked out of his room and saw Shi Jin standing at the doorway, looking full of self-reproach.
"What’s wrong? Did something happen again?" Jiang Yi asked.
"I lost track of Jack!"
Shi Jin said helplessly, "Mr. Jiang, this is my mistake. I failed the task you assigned me. Please punish me!"
Jiang Yi couldn’t help but laugh.
"It’s not your fault!"
Jiang Yi smiled. "Although Jack is an idiot, the Old Jack behind him is no ordinary person. It’s normal that you lost track of him. Continue to keep an eye on Qiu Fang at Wan Hui Company to redeem yourself!"
"Okay!"
Shi Jin replied and then left.
As soon as Shi Jin left, Shen Lu walked over.
"You know about Old Jack?"
"How would I know? I just said that to stop Shi Jin from blaming himself."
Jiang Yi took a deep breath and said, "Although I don’t know about Old Jack, I can guess that this old fellow is not easy to deal with!"
"With so many mercenaries under him, he’s definitely not a simple figure. I’ll find an opportunity to ask the Dongfang family for help to investigate Old Jack’s background."
"Can the Dongfang family investigate clearly?" Shen Lu asked.
"Of course!"
Jiang Yi smiled slightly. "Don’t underestimate the Dongfang family’s capabilities. My sister’s matter was investigated clearly by the Dongfang family. If it were anyone else, they wouldn't have been able to figure it out."
As soon as Jiang Yi finished speaking, a servant ran over to inform him that Dongfang Mei had arrived.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yi went downstairs to the living room.
Dongfang Mei was sitting on the sofa, drinking tea. Seeing Jiang Yi arrive, she handed him a file.
She said, "Old Jack isn’t just an ordinary person. He’s from the Eagle Country. In his youth, he served in the military and attained the rank of Major General at a young age. Later, he was discharged for committing offenses, and then he started doing business."
"He has a very large trading company in the Eagle Country. After coming to our Huaxia Country, he started establishing companies and factories here!"
Jiang Yi was taken aback.
He was just about to ask the Dongfang family to help investigate Old Jack, but he didn’t expect Dongfang Mei to have already found out everything.
"Your speed is too fast!" Jiang Yi exclaimed.
"Old Jack’s background is not a secret at all; you can find it online!"
After Dongfang Mei finished speaking, her expression turned serious.
"You must be careful with this Old Jack. I found out that he has dealings with your uncle’s company in Huaxia Country, and their relationship is close. I suspect Old Jack was sent to Huaxia Country by your uncle, and Old Jack’s purpose is to deal with you."
Jiang Yi nodded.
He didn’t expect Old Jack to be connected to his uncle.
It was clear that Old Jack was his uncle’s man.
Jiang Yi had long suspected that his uncle wouldn’t give up and would definitely send people to Huaxia Country to deal with him, but he hadn’t expected it to be Old Jack.
Jiang Yi took a deep breath.
It was too coincidental that Old Jack’s son, Jack, had a conflict with him.
Perhaps it wasn’t a conflict; Jack might have deliberately used Xiao Xin as a cover to approach him.
"Our wedding date has been set. We’ll officially get married the day after tomorrow. I won’t see you tomorrow; we’ll meet again at the wedding!"
Dongfang Mei finished speaking, kissed Jiang Yi, and then got up and left the hall.
The wedding was the day after tomorrow, and Jiang Yi felt it was too soon!
"I saw the news just now. The matter of your marriage to Miss Dongfang has spread like wildfire. Almost everyone in the Beijing business circles knows about it!" Shen Lu said.
Jiang Yi’s brows furrowed slightly.
"This is supposed to be your big day, yet you look a bit unhappy," Shen Lu commented.
"I’m not unhappy; I’m worried!"
Jiang Yi looked at Shen Lu and asked, "If you were Old Jack, or my enemy, what would you do?"
Upon hearing this question, Shen Lu’s expression turned grave.
"You mean, Old Jack might make a move against you secretly during your wedding?" Shen Lu frowned and said. Su Dan Novel Network
"If I were Old Jack, I would do the same."
Jiang Yi sneered. "Choosing this time to make a move would greatly increase the chance of success and make it impossible to guard against."
"Don’t worry! You focus on your wedding. I’ll discuss it with Shi Jin and make thorough preparations. As soon as Old Jack’s men arrive, we’ll catch them all in one go," Shen Lu said.
"On the day of my wedding with Dongfang Mei, there will be many guests. Your few people won’t be enough!" Jiang Yi said.
"Then what should we do?" Shen Lu asked.
"We must eliminate this old fellow before my wedding with Dongfang Mei. Including today, I have two more days." Jiang Yi stated.
Shen Lu’s brows knitted together.
In Shen Lu’s opinion, this was impossible.
"This is very difficult to accomplish!" Shen Lu said.
"It’s not difficult!"
Jiang Yi’s lips curved upwards. "Qiu Fang is an old friend of Old Jack. Old Jack must know that I am someone from Wan Hui Company. He will use Qiu Fang to get rid of me, and I can take this opportunity to lure Old Jack out."
"This plan is indeed good! However, by doing so, we won’t just be dealing with Old Jack, but also Qiu Fang!" Shen Lu remarked.
"It’s alright! This matter is easy to handle!"
Jiang Yi smiled slightly.
Jiang Yi already had a plan in mind.
Just then, Jiang Yi’s phone suddenly rang.
He took it out and saw that it was from Qiu Fang’s secretary.
"As I suspected!"
Jiang Yi said, then answered the call.
"Jiang Yi, the boss wants to see you. He wants you to come to the company immediately."
The secretary’s voice came from the other end of the line.
Before Jiang Yi could speak, the secretary had already hung up.
Jiang Yi put away his phone and drove to Wan Hui Company.
Shen Lu also followed.
Shen Lu was very worried about Jiang Yi’s safety.
An hour later, Jiang Yi arrived at the entrance of Wan Hui Company. As soon as he got out of the car, he saw Qiu Fang’s secretary.
"You’re in trouble today; leave quickly!" the secretary whispered to Jiang Yi.
"Is Qiu Fang planning to make a move against me?" Jiang Yi asked with a smile.
"I’m not sure, but judging by the boss’s tone, he won’t treat you well today."
