Li Yu said with a cold gaze, “We can’t be careless.”

The assistant didn’t dare to say much and could only nod and say, “Yes, Sir.”

Although the assistant found it hard to believe that Jiang Ling’er had grown so formidable, he had faith in his young master’s judgment.

Li Yu emphasized, “No one is to harm Jiang Ling’er from now on, not even Li Yan. Anyone who attempts to harm her will be swiftly dealt with.”

Though Li Yu’s tone remained composed, his words carried an air of authority and inviolability. He made it clear that no one should dare to disobey his orders.

The assistant promptly agreed and left the room.

When Jiang Jun returned home, it was already in the afternoon.

Upon entering his bedroom, Jiang Jun immediately switched on his computer, accessed his email, and downloaded the contents of the email he had received earlier.

He carefully inspected the email and was delighted to find that none of the information about Bai Xue was missing. Only a few minor dirt on Jiang Ling’er had been lost.

Jiang Jun felt relieved. The memories with Bai Xue were irreplaceable, and he was grateful that they were still intact. As for the information about Jiang Ling’er, it wasn’t fabricated, so he didn’t feel any loss. The 10,000 yuan he had paid for the data recovery was well worth it.

After confirming that Bai Xue’s information was safe, Jiang Jun’s mood lightened. As he gazed at Bai Xue’s innocent photo, he unintentionally reminisced about their past moments together.

After an indeterminate amount of time, a knock on the door interrupted Jiang Jun’s thoughts. Annoyed, he asked, “What’s the matter?”

The butler’s voice came from outside the door, “Young Master, Master and Madam are waiting for you in the living room. They would like you to join them.”

Upon hearing that his parents were looking for him, Jiang Jun’s spirits lifted, thinking they might be here to help him. He replied, “Alright, I’ll be there in a moment.”

Jiang Jun kissed the photo on his computer screen and then headed downstairs.

When Jiang Jun saw his parents, he greeted them cheerfully, “Dad, Mom, what brings you here?”

Lin Lin observed Jiang Jun’s demeanor and couldn’t help but feel angry that he showed no remorse at all.

Jiang Hua furrowed his brows. Disappointed by Jiang Jun’s apparent lack of distress, he questioned, “What are your future plans?”

Jiang Jun, feeling indignant, retorted, “Dad, why are you asking about that?”

Jiang Hua’s expression soured, and he responded unhappily, “Let me ask you, what are your plans for the future? Have you thought about how you’ll support yourself? What do you mean? You’re already 30 years old; shouldn’t you know what to do?”

Jiang Jun, feeling affronted, argued, “Dad, are you implying that I’ll definitely lose the bet?”

Jiang Hua couldn’t believe his son’s insolence. He wanted to reprimand Jiang Jun but managed to restrain himself. Instead, he inquired, “Even if Ling’er doesn’t make it to the top three, do you think you can stay at home and do nothing?”

Jiang Jun was flabbergasted and shouted, “Dad, what do you mean by that? Even if 1 haven’t made significant contributions to the company, I’ve worked hard! What do you mean by ‘do nothing’? You may think you’re accomplished, but Grandfather hasn’t handed the entire company over to you! Doesn’t that tell you something?”

Jiang Hua was utterly exasperated. He glared at Lin Lin and accused her, “See, this is the son you’ve been spoiling all these years!”

Jiang Jun glanced at Lin Lin, who remained cold and did nothing to defend him. Jiang Jun felt disappointed that he couldn’t win her support. He retorted, “Dad, if you’re dissatisfied with me, just say it to me directly. Why are you blaming Mom?”

Jiang Hua sarcastically remarked, “Ha… Now you know how to be filial? When you slapped your mother, did you consider her your mother?”

Jiang Jun felt at a loss for words.

Jiang Hua continued, “For a woman unrelated to you, you even raised your hand against your own mother. I was simply stating the facts, and you have the audacity to challenge me?”

Jiang Jun stammered, “Dad, how did you find out about that?”

Jiang Jun glared at Lin Lin, unhappy that she had apparently shared such a trivial incident with Jiang Hua. He felt that Lin Lin was being petty.

Jiang Hua said seriously, “Do you think I’m blind? You think I didn’t see the swelling on your mother’s face?”

Although Jiang Hua no longer had any love for Lin Lin, seeing Jiang Jun’s attitude really made his blood boil.

Jiang Jun:”…”

Jiang Hua added, “If Ling’er ranks in the top three this time, your mother and I have decided to give you 100,000 yuan each. You can figure things out on your own.”

Jiang Jun had initially assumed that his parents had come to support him, but now it seemed they were actually preparing to send him away.. Jiang Jun widened his eyes in disbelief and exclaimed, “What? Just 100,000 yuan? Is this how you’re getting rid of me? I’m your son!”
