Chapter 327: I'm worried about you

He had thought Jiang Cheng was merely looking into a bit of information, and that a little pressure would make him stop what he was doing.

Who could have imagined that this guy's temper would be far more stubborn than he expected? As soon as he started, those bits of information just kept getting deeper.

If he let him continue investigating, the consequences would be more than he could bear!

He had finally reached this point with great difficulty, watching his days grow more glorious. He finally enjoyed the feeling of having one hand cover the sky, being flattered and fawned over by those people.

However——

Jiang Cheng's appearance could very well destroy those little bits he had in his hands! How could Tao Taiping not worry?

He could be scared to death!

His subordinates dared not be negligent in the slightest, all flattering and fawning.

A group of people kept nodding.

"Okay, boss, we'll handle this right away. Rest assured, we'll definitely settle the matter you assigned."

"Although Jiang Cheng is arrogant, he currently lacks the ability and qualifications to stand on your head and show off."

These people spoke through gritted teeth, their faces looking rather unpleasant.

They bowed and scraped before Tao Taiping, making promises. That obsequious demeanor—needless to say, they were total lackeys!

Seeing their attitude, Tao Taiping nodded in satisfaction. However, he had strong objections regarding Jiang Cheng; even though these people flattered him to his face, he irritably said, "Stop nitpicking, get on with what I told you to do!"

"If you keep dragging this out, who knows when it'll be resolved? Isn't this just causing me more trouble?" He looked furious, glaring at them with a fierce stare.

He reminded his subordinates: if you're going to handle it, do it quickly!

If you keep hemming and hawing, nobody will solve the problem.

If Jiang Cheng keeps getting stronger, he's doomed!

He fears that any problem might arise midway with all the power he holds.

Thinking of this, Tao Taiping's face darkened. He scowled, impatiently continuing his arrangements: "You few, hurry up and handle it for me."

"Especially lately, keep an eye on Jiang Cheng's actions at all times. If there's the slightest hint of movement, remember to inform me immediately!"

His breathing grew hurried as well.

Jiang Cheng this guy is far more formidable than he imagined!

He had thought this guy lacked any ability, but now he sees he was too careless! He actually believed Jiang Cheng had no capability, and even if he acted arrogantly, he couldn't possibly topple him.

Who would have known that behind him were so many big shots helping out? Word has it that a few days ago, those big shots summoned him, a group sat down for a meal, and discussed how to deal with him.

Thinking back, he had deliberately tried to curry favor with one of those big shots, hoping to improve relations and maybe discuss some cooperation—that alone would have been quite good.

But the other party turned him down as soon as he approached, saying they didn't want to collude with him, didn't want to be like him, docking those artists' wages.

What does "to dock" mean?

He's clearly earning money through his own abilities!

Earning money with his own labor—could that possibly be wrong? As for them, when they could exploit, they say they won't, and I don't know if they're stupid!

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got, the more he wanted to tear Jiang Cheng limb from limb. If it weren't for Jiang Cheng, he wouldn't have spent so much money or mobilized so much force to deal with him.

Spending money on this is utterly wasteful!

But——he truly dares not be careless!

Just thinking that Jiang Cheng might have dug up a mountain of evidence against him makes him panic.

Especially a recent cooperation where a leak occurred during the period; by the time he reacted, days had passed, and to patch that loophole he'd need at least half a month to gradually resolve the issue.

As things stand now, he fears Jiang Cheng might uncover this point. If Jiang Cheng really investigates it, what can he do here?

Worried sick, Tao Taiping felt utterly annoyed. Thinking that Jiang Cheng was secretly plotting so many ways to topple him made him furious.

Speechless!

That guy——

He's doing it on purpose, right?

Intentionally opposing him just to show off his own prowess?

During the period when Tao Taiping's face was grim, Jiang Cheng had already gathered more and more evidence, most of which came from the people around him who were helping him.

With this evidence, Jiang Cheng wanting to topple his opponent and ruin his reputation is a perfectly normal matter.

However, Jiang Cheng also has a bit of ambition; he doesn't want to be unable to topple them in one go!

If it can't be settled in one strike, he fears that guy might make a comeback at any time. Once their grudges accumulate, that guy will surely rack his brains, using every dirty trick imaginable to deal with him!

So——

To ensure this matter is foolproof, Jiang Cheng feels he needs to be a bit more cautious. He must handle it properly, must devise a way to topple the opponent in one fell swoop—only then can he completely resolve the opponent!

As soon as Jiang Cheng voiced his idea, Su Manyao immediately agreed.

!

Su Manyao has always endorsed Jiang Cheng's approach.

Whether in the past or now, every time without exception.

Su Manyao firmly stands with Jiang Cheng because they're now on the same rope, and also——

They are themselves a couple.

If Su Manyao didn't stand with Jiang Cheng, where else would she stand?

"If we can get more evidence and settle him in one go, then we won't need to worry anymore about him making a comeback."

"Come to think of it, that wouldn't be a bad thing either!" Su Manyao said while nodding, stepping forward and gently pinching Jiang Cheng's cheek.

"You know, I've always believed in you." Su Manyao's smile turned radiant, especially when she laughed, it was bright and sunny.

Jiang Cheng swept Su Manyao into his arms: "Borrow your lucky words!"

"With you here, I also feel this matter will surely go smoothly." Having Su Manyao by his side, Jiang Cheng felt his whole self relax.

After all——

As long as Su Manyao is present, Jiang Cheng will only feel that his whole body is filled with power.

Just those minor characters, their abilities—how formidable could they possibly be? At most they can be arrogant for a few days; later, when faced with solid evidence, each and every one will have to kneel and beg for mercy.

"But I'm worried he'll take revenge on you." Su Manyao frowned slightly, "His methods are so ruthless; if he finds you……" (End of chapter)
