Chapter 483

Zhang Zong turned and left, not daring to stay at the company.

The assistant turned and truthfully reported Zhang Zong's matter to Jiang Cheng; seeing Zhang Zong's determined expression, he felt something odd, but since it had nothing to do with him, he didn't pursue further.

"Boss, I can tell from his expression that something's off; you'd better be extra careful on your end!"

The assistant on the other end of the phone, also worried about Jiang Cheng, kept reminding him.

Upon hearing the news, Jiang Cheng also felt curious—what scheming was Zhang Zong planning this time?

This guy is definitely up to no good!

Judging by his past behavior, this guy is certainly not someone who gives up easily!

Perhaps…

Who knows what little tricks he's cooking up now!

For someone like him, Jiang Cheng felt he should still be a bit cautious.

So as not to be taken in by him.

"I understand, go rest; you don't need to worry about this side." If that guy really had designs on him, Jiang Cheng had countless ways to deal with him—teaching such a scoundrel a lesson would be a breeze.

Jiang Cheng said it indifferently.

"Okay."

…

After hanging up, Jiang Cheng turned and headed home.

Su Manyao answered a call saying it was a company boss who wanted to discuss matters concerning the Su Family's company.

At that time.

He found it unbelievable!

But after hesitating a moment, he still decided to go out.

"A company executive wants to meet me to discuss something; I happen to have some free time—why don't we go out and talk first? Then we can have a late-night snack together outside. What do you think?" Su Manyao knew her impromptu plan wasn't proper, but hearing that the boss was capable and moreover was Zhang Zong from a certain company…

If Su Manyao remembered correctly, this Zhang Zong had indeed been cooperating with their family for many years.

So…

Su Manyao wanted to meet him.

However…

Jiang Cheng frowned slightly upon hearing the name Zhang Zong.

"Are you sure you really want to see him?" Jiang Cheng seemed unwilling to meet him; at least now he held a strong opinion about that guy.

Jiang Cheng couldn't be bothered to expose the dirty deeds that guy had done behind the scenes.

Who would have thought that a turn of the head would directly connect him to Su Manyao?

That guy is truly despicable!

Seeing Jiang Cheng's face grow worse, the puzzled Su Manyao was a bit at a loss.

"What's wrong?"

"I feel your condition seems a bit off lately—could it be that you've been overworked recently and need rest?" Su Manyao's eyes full of concern, ultimately not wanting to see Jiang Cheng hurt.

Since taking over the family company, Jiang Cheng's workload has increased, often leaving him frazzled by all sorts of matters.

Today he rarely got to come home, but because Zhang Zong contacted him, therefore…

Su Manyao still had to go over there.

"How about this: I'll go over there first, you rest at home? That Zhang Zong is a friend of our family, having cooperated for many years—we certainly shouldn't neglect him."

Su Manyao also, out of respect for their long-term cooperation, definitely couldn't treat him poorly in attitude.

"No need to go."

Jiang Cheng said: "Recently I've discovered he's also cooperating with other companies, and moreover taking defective goods from those companies to deceive consumers."

"But because these tactics were exposed recently, they can't continue. I thought he'd restrain himself and stop his harmful behavior, so I hadn't exposed him yet—unexpectedly, when he came over, he directly demanded I compensate ten million."

"He keeps insisting these problematic items came from our company and should be our responsibility—why would I want to meet someone like that?"

"I refused all his requests; he likely went to seek help elsewhere, but no one would assist him, so—left with no choice—he came back to us today, waited all day, insisting he knew his mistake and wanted to discuss, but I believe giving him an opportunity would only make things worse."

"For such a person, I really don't want to give him any pleasant looks."

What's the point of giving him a pleasant look?

What is he? After this, Jiang Cheng finally saw his true colors.

When faced with such a scoundrel, refuse if you can.

In short, Jiang Cheng doesn't want to waste his time on such a person.

Su Manyao, hearing this, still felt somewhat incredulous.

"You mean he's urgently seeking me now because… his dirty deeds have been exposed? Finding himself helpless, he came to you for help, but you refused, so he pinned his hopes on me, hoping I could help?"

"That's pretty much the meaning."

"In short, this guy has many behavioral issues; I don't recommend meeting him at all, let alone discussing cooperation."

"You're not an idiot—why would you believe his deceitful talk? And with someone like him, if you can avoid cooperation, do so; working with him is just wasting your time!"

Jiang Cheng currently holds a strong opinion.

He never expected that guy could be so shameless as to approach Su Manyao.

"But I didn't expect him to be so brazen as to rush over to you—this really exceeded my expectations."

"However, my advice is not to seek him out; dealing with someone like him is just a waste of time!"

"Then I now suspect he might be secretly collaborating with your Uncle Lin."

Jiang Cheng currently lacks solid proof to confirm any connection between them, but their relationship is definitely not simple!

Jiang Cheng's words made Su Manyao angrier the more she thought about it.

I'm really pissed off!

I trusted him like that, and as a result, he treated me like a big sucker?

In his eyes, is my trust just the first thing? Consequently, he's now stringing me along like I'm an idiot—I really can't stand it! Su Manyao now, ah, is about to die of anger.

I originally wanted to meet the other party, but now it seems there's absolutely no need to meet them!

If he really agrees to the other party, even agrees to meet them, or if their cooperation continues, in the end he'll lose face and suffer from yin and yang!

It's even possible that he'll bring all kinds of trouble to Jiang Cheng.

The more she thinks about it, the angrier Su Manyao gets. (End of chapter)
