Chapter 279: The Partner Ran Away

"I'm not worried about you; what I'm most worried about right now is that the other side's methods are too dirty. If you go up against him, you don't have his shamelessness, you don't resort to any means, I'm afraid you'll suffer a loss."

"Su Manyao's words also combined an analysis of the actual situation."

"Huang Zhengming now, in order to achieve his goal, has resorted to some unscrupulous means."

"He's like this…"

"Su Manyao only felt that this person was terrifying!"

"He, who resorts to any means, now for the sake of winning, what wouldn't he do?"

"He has reached the point of madness."

"With such a mad person, one must still be cautious in all matters."

""Who says I can't bring myself to act shamelessly?" Jiang Cheng chuckled: "Although to some extent I indeed can't match him, but do you think I'm really afraid of his actions?""

""Moreover, I've sent people to monitor his every move; any slight disturbance, I can detect it immediately, and I have dedicated people reporting to me. You say... can the other side really pull it off?""

"Jiang Cheng wasn't panicking."

"He said he wasn't worried, and he truly wasn't."

"Currently, the private detective has clearly stated that he will do his utmost to help him."

"Also."

"In fact, he had already planted two people with the director earlier."

"He knows this is wrong, but it's also to prevent the singer he arranged from meeting with the director or Huang Zhengming in their sordid, shameless discussions and suffering an accident."

"Just as they were discussing, someone sent Jiang Cheng a message."

""The director has begun.""

""He found Lin Xinyuan, and it seems he's still holding something in his hand. He's the director, smiling obsequiously, just afraid...""

"The thing in his hand is poisonous!"

"This director really went to great lengths!"

"Doing this, he's undoubtedly sending himself to prison."

"Just because he bears a grudge against Jiang Cheng, he likes to use such methods—people can really be terrifying!"

""I understand.""

"Mei Qiguan was practicing."

"He was striving to make himself stronger, more formidable."

"Seeing the director, he was slightly startled, a bit surprised."

""Director, how do you have time to come see me?" He had a faint smile on his face, his gaze soft as he fixed it on the man before him."

"But for some reason, today the director appeared much more restrained than usual."

"His complexion looked very off!"

"Mei Qiguan was puzzled; he also kept Jiang Cheng's words in mind, and after noticing something amiss, he remained in a relatively cautious stage."

"The director walked up to him and patted his shoulder."

""Your ability, kid, is quite strong!""

""I didn't expect you to still be this formidable? Truly, you've stunned me badly!" His eyes clearly showed appreciation."

"He indeed looked like he really liked Mei Qiguan."

"But the smile at the corner of his mouth carried something strange, making his whole demeanor different."

"He was a bit…"

"Not quite right!"

"Mei Qiguan heightened his vigilance, feigning calm."

""Director, I still have many things to practice here… Otherwise, why don't you go rest first? I'll keep practicing, what do you think?""

""I see you practicing at least eighteen hours out of twenty-four each day; aren't you tired, don't you need rest? Your voice has been a bit hoarse the past two days.""

""If you keep going like this, you might ruin your voice for tomorrow's competition—what then?" He spoke bluntly, outwardly showing great concern for Mei Qiguan."

"But as the old saying goes, 'Who offers flattery without cause? Either a spy or a thief!'"

"This guy is clearly off."

""Nothing's wrong!""

"Mei Qiguan's eyes were full of fervor."

"He was full of confidence in this match."

"He believed his future self would certainly stand out. He also dared to strive, to become the champion of this match."

""Director, if there's nothing else, I'm going to go improve my abilities now; I'll leave first, okay?" Everyone says they're leaving; the director surely can't forcibly keep them, right?"

"That director's complexion wasn't very good."

"For a moment, he gritted his teeth."

"Unfortunately, he ran into this situation; he could only endure it, with no other recourse."

""Okay!""

"He nodded and said, ""Then go practice well; I won't disturb you here.""

"Jiang Cheng had warned Mei Qiguan that those people inevitably harbored some resentment toward him, and they were likely to vent that anger on him."

"What he most needs to do now is avoid too much contact with the director and them, to prevent trouble."

"Mei Qiguan listened attentively to Jiang Cheng's reminders."

"He would frequently find excuses for himself and then keep his distance."

"At that time."

"!"

The director's expression grew increasingly awkward.

He was so angry he couldn't bear it.

He simply couldn't figure out why… this guy could be so cautious.

It left him with no way at all.

He tried several methods, but he just couldn't get into this guy's body.

Moreover—

His plan could not proceed smoothly.

Thinking of this, his expression gradually twisted a bit.

He was very unwilling to accept it.

But what if he refuses to accept it?

Finally, he left, feeling a bit irritable.

After the others left, the gas canister then told Jiang Cheng what had happened, letting Jiang Cheng's side not worry about him; in fact, he had plenty of ways to punish the other party, and it was clear the other party had no chance of scheming against him.

It also left some people pitiful; he thought up a bunch of methods, finally—

Instead, he made a mess of things.

He felt annoyed inside, but could only endure, then forcibly suppress these flames.

Jiang Cheng called repeatedly to confirm, knowing he was fine, and finally let out a sigh of relief.

"As long as you're okay."

At the same time, something even more disgusting happened.

That very day.

The company brought over a very bad piece of news.

A partner ran away!

Upon hearing it, Jiang Cheng was slightly startled.

This, he obviously hadn't anticipated; he was a little surprised.

"Speak clearly."

"Our funds had just been transferred to the other party's account, and the next second they chose to block us, and we directly fled with the money." The manager who said this was frightened into a cold sweat; faced with this situation, he momentarily made everyone feel lost.

How are people nowadays getting more and more outrageous?

We agreed to cooperate, but the other party just turned and ran?

Does he not even regard their country's law?

Surely he doesn't think he can really escape with that sum of money?

The manager was also speechless.

He simply couldn't figure out how he suddenly ended up with such a shameless thing.

He inevitably felt some resentment in his heart.

After encountering this, he immediately called Jiang Cheng.

This matter was his responsibility.

After confirming repeatedly that the other party had no issues, he then told Jiang Cheng and thought about cooperating with them.

So what happened?

The other party is just so casually toying with him, right? (End of chapter)
