Chapter 220 Jiang Ruan's Body Contains a Treasure Trove
"Okay." Jiang Ruan agreed without any hesitation.
"Then I won't bother you any longer." Qin Jiangye stood up, looking young and handsome. "Auntie, please contact me anytime if you need any information. I promise to tell you everything I know."
Jiang An did not respond to him.
It is clear that both sides are merely using each other.
Qin Jiangye didn't mind, and greeted Jiang Ruan with a smile: "Little cousin, I'm leaving."
Jiang Ruan: "..."
After watching him leave, Jiang Ruan asked more detailed questions about what had just happened: "Mom, why did they want to hurt you?"
Jiang An explained the shareholding situation to her.
Her child can buy back the shares at the original price, but she cannot interfere in any of the Qin family's affairs. Once Ruan Ruan is officially involved with the shares, she can no longer intervene or give advice.
Those people probably acted in the first place because they were afraid that Ruan Ruan would get the money to buy back the shares, and then Huo Zhizhou would manipulate things so that the Qin Group would fall into their hands.
"He harmed you for those few stocks? Aren't you his own sister?" Jiang Ruan couldn't understand.
"What's a younger sister?" Jiang An said indifferently to that family. "For the sake of profit, they can turn their backs on even their own relatives."
Jiang Ruan frowned.
I never imagined that my mother grew up in such an environment.
“But those stocks you mentioned are now worth hundreds of billions.” Jiang An said the most astonishing thing in the calmest tone, “They’ve increased more than a hundredfold compared to when I sold them.”
Jiang Ruan: "???"
Hundreds of billions?
She opened her mouth: "Then how much did you sell it for?"
“They felt it was inappropriate for a woman like me to hold such a high percentage of shares.” Jiang An’s tone was no longer emotional when she brought this up. “They used every means to pressure me, and I was too lazy to argue with them, so I just sold them.”
Jiang Ruan's feelings were a complex mix of emotions.
What did Mom go through behind that seemingly casual remark?
“Given their personality, they won’t let you get the shares so easily.” Jiang An knew them well. “Are you afraid?”
"I'm not afraid." Jiang Ruan felt no fear when she thought about taking back what originally belonged to her mother.
Jiang An placed his hand on the top of her head and gently rubbed it.
She had never let Ruan Ruan study business and finance. Besides the reasons she had told her before, the more important reason was that she didn't want Ruan Ruan to get involved with the Qin family. If she were to study business and finance, the Qin family would definitely resort to underhanded tactics.
She has enough money to ensure Ruanruan a comfortable and worry-free life for the rest of her days; there's no need to drag her into that kind of miserable and treacherous existence.
The results proved it.
They didn't actually do anything before.
But when he learned that she had transferred her assets to Ruan Ruan, he still took action because of that slight worry.
Since that's the case, she doesn't need to hesitate any longer and might as well take a gamble.
"Mom." Jiang Ruan really wanted to know something.
Jiang An: "Hmm?"
Jiang Ruan looked into her eyes: "What was Chairman Li doing when they were forcing you back then?"
According to Aunt Xu, her mother was probably dating him during that time. People in love, even if they don't provide help, should at least provide emotional support.
“Yes…” Jiang An hesitated at this point.
He's having affairs with other women.
He's making her wait for him.
She is planning to get engaged to someone else.
"Busy vying for power with his uncle." She rephrased it, not wanting Ruan Ruan to know those messy things, as they would only make her unhappy and bring her no benefit.
Jiang Ruan frowned.
Why do people all like to fight for power?
Ding-dong.
My phone rang.
Jiang Ruan picked it up and saw a message from Qin Jiangye: [Hi little cousin, this is Qin Jiangye. As your cutest, most handsome, and reliable little cousin, feel free to contact me with any questions.]
Jiang Ruan turned off her screen and didn't reply.
After waiting for half an hour without receiving any news, Qin Jiangye clicked his tongue twice and said, "My little cousin is really heartless."
Secretary Qin: "..."
Secretary Qin: "The old patriarch just called me and said he couldn't reach you."
Qin Jiangye: "It's muted."
Secretary Qin: "The old master will be angry."
"Impossible." Qin Jiangye dialed a number, and the moment the call connected, he called out in an exceptionally sweet voice, "Grandpa."
Old Master Qin remained silent.
Qin Jiangye had already prepared an excuse: "I just went to see my aunt and cousin. Tomorrow is my cousin's birthday. Would you like to give her a gift?"
Old Master Qin's attention was successfully diverted: "Tomorrow?"
Qin Jiangye: "Yes."
Sitting in the courtyard, Old Master Qin stroked his beard and began to think about what gift to give.
"If you don't know what to give, just give something expensive," Qin Jiangye suggested, his tone gentle and relaxed. "For example, a property, a manor, a cruise ship, or something like that. Even if your little cousin doesn't like it, she can sell it for money."
Grandpa Qin nodded.
That makes sense.
At the same time.
Li Zhishen was also preparing a birthday gift for Jiang Ruan.
When Huo Zhizhou learned about the gifts they had sent, a look of worry appeared between his brows.
Although he had given them the same gifts before, as Ruan Ruan's husband who hadn't been divorced yet, he couldn't give anything worse than what they gave him.
"Give the winery and island we bought recently to Ruan Ruan," Huo Zhizhou said, his thin lips slightly parted. "And send her all the limited-edition sports cars that came out this year."
Assistant Jiang: "..."
Assistant Jiang kindly reminded them, "The villa that Miss Jiang and her family bought can only accommodate six cars."
Huo Zhizhou: "Why don't you buy the property next door, expand it, and send it as a gift?"
Jiang, the special assistant, nodded.
That makes sense.
"Spread the word while you're preparing these things." Huo Zhizhou's calculations were swift and precise, his eyes dark and unfathomable. "Let Old Master Qin and Chairman Li know."
This is Ruan Ruan's first pot of gold in Haicheng.
We need to help her earn more money.
It has to be said.
His plan worked.
When Grandpa Qin and Li Zhishen learned what he had given them, they both began to prepare even more valuable gifts. They had only one thought in mind: as the child's maternal grandfather/biological father, they couldn't give anything worse than what a scumbag would give.
Jiang Ruan, the person involved, was completely unaware of this.
After Qin Jiangye left, she took Sui Sui to the new school to familiarize herself with the environment.
This school is located in the villa area and is one of the top three kindergartens in Haicheng. It provides two meals and two snacks a day, and the school bus service is very convenient.
"If you don't like the new school, just tell Mommy," Jiang Ruan said to Sui Sui on the way back. "Mommy will change it for you again."
Sui Sui nodded: "Mmm."
Jiang Ruan gently flicked his nose.
As if remembering something, Sui Sui suddenly spoke up: "Mommy."
Jiang Ruan: "Hmm?"
Sui Sui's eyes darted around: "Will Daddy come to celebrate your birthday tomorrow?"
Jiang Ruan was taken aback, realizing that Sui Sui hadn't seen Huo Zhizhou since moving to the new environment, and that they hadn't made any video calls to him during his hospitalization.
"If you want to see him, Mommy can..."
“If Dad is coming, you must invite Uncle Ye over too,” Sui Sui quickly said, stopping her from overthinking. “Otherwise, knowing his personality, he’ll definitely think you still can’t let him go.”
