Chapter 410

Su Manyao also, after much deliberation, decided to cooperate with the other party. Firstly, their two companies were originally a perfect fit.

Cooperating with the other party, their two companies will surely thrive.

Once the two companies cooperate, money will keep flowing into his account.

Moreover—

A senior from the other company, Su Manyao has known him for a long time.

The other party is a decent person.

Moreover, she also told him many things about that company, big and small.

The other party extended an olive branch to him, and Jiang Cheng agreed.

At present.

Su Manyao truly felt happy.

That being the case, she would think of celebrating a bit and would buy all these things to put on the table.

However, Jiang Cheng happened to have something come up, so he bought some beer, took just two sips, and who knew he'd get drunk, his head feeling as if it couldn't turn.

But it was only a little alcohol—how did he end up getting drunk?

He even swayed and collapsed into Jiang Cheng's arms.

"I'm telling you, I'm really happy, I really want to celebrate properly. But who knew that after just a sip or two of this drink, my head would start to feel fuzzy, I feel—" Before she could finish speaking, Su Manyao fainted.

Jiang Cheng: "……"

Looking at the woman in his arms, Jiang Cheng couldn't help but laugh and cry, almost being amused.

Su Manyao's appearance— the more he looked, the more he found her endearing.

Looking around, who else could be like Su Manyao, constantly making Jiang Cheng laugh all day?

Jiang Cheng's brows and eyes were gentle.

He slightly bent his waist, held Su Manyao in his arms, then placed her on the bed, after pulling up the blanket to cover her, he then went out, tidied the living room a bit, and also took a hot shower, after which Jiang Cheng leisurely returned to Su Manyao's side.

Su Manyao slept somewhat deeply.

【23> She (Su Manyao) slightly shifted his body, turning his head and tightly embracing Jiang Cheng's waist, his little mouth seemingly still murmuring, not knowing what he was muttering.

He slightly shifted his body, and as soon as he turned his head, he tightly hugged Jiang Cheng's waist, his little mouth seemed still murmuring, not knowing what he was muttering.

Jiang Cheng really liked such days.

He especially enjoyed it.

At least—

Such days had an especially relaxed atmosphere.

—

The next day, after Jiang Cheng woke up, he however received a message.

The company Su Manyao had just cooperated with yesterday, its boss had already fled with the money.

What remained was just an empty shell.

After receiving the news, Jiang Cheng looked at the woman still sound asleep in his arms, and couldn't help but start worrying for her. If Su Manyao found out about this after waking up, would she be furious to death?

Jiang Cheng felt heartache.

"In other words, last night's incident was actually a trap? Their goal was to lure Su Manyao into it, and after she cooperated with them, they would quickly dump all the stocks they held, and even run off with the company's meager funds?"

Upon hearing it, Jiang Cheng roughly understood what was going on.

Upon learning the full story, Jiang Cheng also didn't expect those people to be capable of such despicable, shameless acts.

How disgusting!

Jiang Cheng only felt these people were ill-omened, and he never imagined they could pull off such a brainless stunt. "According to our investigation, that's indeed the case!"

"The other party set up this trap from the start, just waiting for Su Manyao to jump in; when she did, they would quickly close their positions, and then—"

Su Manyao appeared to have earned ten million yuan last night, but in fact— today Su Manyao directly lost ten million!

Afterwards, there might be all sorts of other problems.

This time Su Manyao is truly down on her luck.

Upon hearing the news, Jiang Cheng's expression turned slightly grim.

"I understand; I'll discuss this matter properly with Su Manyao and then think again about other solutions." Jiang Cheng looked at Su Manyao still sound asleep, saw the corner of her mouth curled up in a faint smile while she slept, and at that moment Jiang Cheng only felt annoyed.

No wonder he felt last night that something was off; it turns out there was a reason!

Those guys went to great lengths, ultimately just to dig this pit for Su Manyao.

"You guys investigate where the other party is now; if you get any news, inform me, and if you find him, send people to arrest them first."

"After that, we'll wait until he and Su Manyao finish discussing, then we two can talk it over properly!"

The other party nodded.

His subordinate agreed with Jiang Cheng and then promptly hung up the phone.

!

He turned his head and began searching for the other party's information, then seeking their whereabouts.

Su Manyao hadn't woken yet; Jiang Cheng originally thought to wake her, but after thinking, he instead went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for Su Manyao.

Su Manyao usually wakes up on time, but perhaps because she drank a little alcohol last night, today her condition is noticeably worse than usual. Fortunately, Jiang Cheng had prepared her a hangover soup.

However, as soon as Su Manyao got up, she noticed the atmosphere was a bit off.

Su Manyao felt a little nervous.

She looked at Jiang Cheng, after taking a bite of food, she slightly lowered her eyelids, then furtively glanced at Jiang Cheng once, observing him closely the whole time. "Why are you being so sneaky?"

"I just feel you seem a bit odd today..."

Su Manyao carefully examined Jiang Cheng, feeling that compared to usual, tonight's Jiang Cheng indeed had many differences. This strange feeling kept spreading throughout his body.

She thought it over and over, but still couldn't figure out what was wrong.

"Do you have something important you want to tell me?" Smart Su Manyao already sensed something had happened.

Jiang Cheng wasn't hiding anything.

"Just this morning, I received news that the boss you collaborated with last night has run off with the money. Moreover, he has sold off all of his company's shares."

"At this point, you may have already lost a full ten million."

As Jiang Cheng's words fell, Su Manyao felt her whole body go limp, and she plopped down onto the ground.

He was a bit unwilling to believe it.

"How could that be?" Su Manyao forced a smile: "You're saying this just to fool me, right? How could this possibly be true? Besides, yesterday we were getting along so well, and we had made many plans for the future, but now you're telling me this... I don't want to believe it!"

He shook his head twice, looking unwilling to believe.

Jiang Cheng didn't continue explaining; instead, he pulled out his phone and laid all that information in front of Su Manyao.

"Take a good look yourself."

Su Manyao didn't want to believe him, but she didn't press further; however, the company's matters still needed to be properly handled.

The further she read, the heavier Su Manyao's mood became.

He never expected that the other party would treat him like a fool and deceive him! (End of chapter)
