Shen Li, who got the feedback from Shao Boqing, was worried again. Facing these two stubborn guys, he really didn’t want to care about the stupid thing between them. However, Jiang Kaiwei was his close friend. He couldn’t watch Jiang Kaiwei become muddle-headed. He also didn’t want the Gu Group to really be split up and sold off by Jiang Kaiwei. Since Shao Boqing couldn’t persuade Gu Nianbin, he had to make a try to persuade Jiang Kaiwei.

Since the business battle began, he rarely went to Jiang Kaiwei’s office because he had to avoid arousing suspicion. So when Zhu Li saw him, she immediately stood up and greeted him, “General Manager Shen.”

“Is your boss here?”

“Yes.” Zhu Li immediately picked up the phone. But Shen Li walked in directly. Then Zhu Li put the phone down, but her heart was uneasy. The boss had said that he did not want to see anyone. Now that she let General Manager Shen enter without reporting to him, would she be scolded because of this?

The boss was in a very bad mood these days. Every time she entered the door, she seemed to enter a cold hole. It was so cold that she shivered. Now, she went to the office as rarely as possible, being afraid that she might get into trouble when the boss was not in a good mood.

When Shen Li pushed the door open and entered, he saw Jiang Kaiwei putting a document into the drawer. He laughed and said, “No need to put it away. I’m not here to spy on you.”

Jiang Kaiwei’s expression looked gloomy. He looked at Shen Li with a dark gaze. “What’s the matter?”

“Can’t I come to see you if you are alright?” Shen Li only smiled mischievously. “I haven’t seen you for a long time. I miss you!”

Jiang Kaiwei’s face was still cold. “Now that you have seen me, you can leave.”

“Hey, why are you like this?” Shen Li sat down casually on a chair. “I came to see you out of good intentions, but you ask me to leave! It’s not the way you treat me!”

“Go back to where you came from. I don’t have time to entertain you.” The more Jiang Kaiwei spoke, the more impolite he became.

Shen Li sighed. He knew that Jiang Kaiwei was not in a good mood and had no patience. It was not the time now to talk about that matter. But since he was already here, he had to say something to remind Jiang Kaiwei.

“Kaiwei,” Shen Li became serious. “You don’t have to chase me away. I’ll leave after saying what I want to say.”

Jiang Kaiwei raised his hand to look at the time. “Alright, I’ll give you five minutes.”

Shen Li rolled his eyes. He accepted it. In any case, he did his best and could only leave all the rest to God. He didn’t beat around the bush but got straight to the point. “Kaiwei, I know why you want to destroy Gu Nianbin. Isn’t it because he is going to marry Xia Xiaowan? You should make things clear. Your target is Xia Xiaowan, not Gu Nianbin. You completely put the cart before the horse. I understand your temper. You are not trying to hurt anyone on purpose. It is just that things have come to this. One wrong move will forfeit the whole game. You should learn to accept fate. If you continue like this, it will only make things worse. Will Xia Xiaowan stay with you even if you defeat Gu Nianbin?”

Jiang Kaiwei kept looking at the watch on his wrist. “There are two minutes left.”

“You.” Shen Li was exasperated, but could not do anything to Jiang Kaiwei, so he could only persuade kindly. “I think it would be better for you to change your attitude and take the initiative to show your goodwill to Gu Nianbin. Maybe Xia Xiaowan will change her opinion of you. Then perhaps it will be possible that you can rebuild your relationship. Kaiwei, it’s better to make friends than foes. The Gu and Xia families are long-time friends. If you take on Gu Nianbin, the Xia family will definitely take action. Don’t forget that Xia Nanze still has our Jiang Group’s shares in his hands. If you buy in the shares of the Gu Group and he sells out his shares to Gu Nianbin, the Jiang Group will be scarcely comparable to the Gu Group at that time. You should know in your heart which is more important. Don’t get penny-wise and pound-foolish! Kaiwei, listen to my advice and stop!”

“Your time is up.” Jiang Kaiwei clapped with a cold face. “What a wonderful speech, but it’s not to the point at all. You should tell me how to defeat Gu Nianbin faster. Is it useful to say those words? I’m sorry, I’m in a hurry. When you leave, close the door for me.”

As he spoke, he took a document from the drawer and put it into the briefcase before leaving in a hurry.

Looking at his back, Shen Li was so angry that he punched the leather chair, “Damn it, why did I put my nose into the business of others?”

Jiang Kaiwei sat in the car and rubbed his temples. Ever since the announcement of Gu Nianbin and Xia Xiaowan’s marriage was released, he had been feeling the throbbing pain in his temples. It was as if something that had been imprisoned suddenly awakened and was clamoring to come out, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.

Before he could figure out why Xia Xiaowan stayed in the sanatorium, the news of her marriage was released. He was so angry when he saw the news. Why was she so hasty? Couldn’t she wait for him to figure it out first?

Humph! He would stop her from getting married if she wanted to do so. He unleashed heavy punches. If Gu Nianbin had to focus on his own affairs, how would he have time to care about the marriage? This time, Jiang Kaiwei made up his mind. He would not stop it until he totally defeated Gu Nianbin!

He would fight to the end. He would also find out the truth. When the driver parked the car, he took the briefcase and strode into the Xia Group’s building.

Since he could not get an answer from Xia Xiaowan, he came to Xia Nanze. Anyway, he must find out the truth.

In front of the president’s office, Xia Nanze’s secretary stopped him. “I’m sorry, Mr. Jiang. The boss won’t see you as you didn’t have an appointment beforehand. Please go back!”

Unlike other bosses, Xia Nanze had a male secretary. Although he looked gentle and refined, he was tall and mighty. It seemed that there wasn’t much hope for Jiang Kaiwei to force his way in.

Jiang Kaiwei threw the briefcase onto the secretary’s desk. “Look carefully. I am Jiang Kaiwei, the president of the Jiang Group. Xia Nanze is a shareholder of my company. Do you think I need to make an appointment to see him?”

Although the secretary was experienced, he was still a little timid in front of Jiang Kaiwei. The Jiang family was the richest in City G, and Jiang Kaiwei was even described as arrogant, domineering, and extremely conceited. If he offended Jiang Kaiwei, he would naturally not have a good end. He frowned in embarrassment and said, “Mr. Jiang, please don’t be angry. The company operates in line with regulations. Don’t make things difficult for me. How about I report to the president first and see if he has time to see you?”

“Alright, I won’t make things difficult for you.” Jiang Kaiwei sat down on the sofa and lit a cigarette with his legs crossed. While smoking, he narrowed his eyes and watched the secretary call Xia Nanze.

After a while, the secretary put down the phone, and the expression on his face became more awkward. “I’m sorry, Mr. Jiang. The president has no time now. How about you…”

Jiang Kaiwei waved his hand. “He doesn’t have time, but I do. I will wait for him here.”

The secretary secretly complained in his heart, “What is this? You can wait outside if you want to wait. If people see you sitting here, what will they feel? If this gets out, Xia Nanze will be blamed for being arrogant and rude!”

More importantly, this Mr. Jiang clearly came with ill intentions. His expression was extremely chilly, seeming to cause the temperature in the office to drop by several degrees.

Just as he was thinking about how to send this Jonah away, the internal line rang. It was a call from Xia Nanze. He hurriedly picked it up. After answering with “Um” or “Ah”, he said “Yes”.

After hanging up the phone, the secretary relaxed and made a gesture of invitation to Jiang Kaiwei. “Mr. Jiang, the president invites you in.”

Jiang Kaiwei snorted. “Does he have time now?” He threw the cigarette butt into the ashtray, got up, and entered the room with the briefcase.

Xia Nanze sat in the big office chair and looked at Jiang Kaiwei with a gloomy expression. “Mr. Jiang doesn’t come here for nothing. Tell me, what’s the matter?”

“Alright, I won’t beat around the bush with you.” Jiang Kaiwei strode over, opened the briefcase, took out the document inside, and threw it on Xia Nanze’s table. “I want to hear your explanation about this!”

Xia Nanze picked it up and looked at it. His face turned ashen and he directly threw the document at Jiang Kaiwei. “What the hell do you mean?”

“Tell me the truth.” Jiang Kaiwei didn’t dodge it, and the document hit him and fell to the ground with a bang.

He bent down and wanted to pick it up. But Xia Nanze had already arrived in front of him and kicked him over. Xia Nanze’s fierce expression made him shiver. “What truth? What truth do you want to know?” Before Jiang Kaiwei could get up, Xia Nanze pressed Jiang Kaiwei from above with his knee and sat on Jiang Kaiwei. Xia Nanze waved his hand and punched Jiang Kaiwei. “If it weren’t for Xiaowan stopping me, I would have beaten you up. It’s good that you come to me today!”

Jiang Kaiwei was not weaker than Xia Nanze. However, he was beaten down before he could prepare himself, and Xia Nanze’s punches were so hard, so he was unable to fight back for a while.

When the secretary heard the noise outside, he pushed open the door and shouted in surprise, “Boss!”

Xia Nanze did not even raise his head as he shouted, “Close the door and don’t let anyone in!”

The secretary had never seen this scene before, so he quickly closed the door obediently. The less he knew about this kind of thing, the better.

Taking advantage of the time when Xia Nanze was speaking, Jiang Kaiwei finally found an opportunity to exert force on his knee, and then rolled away. He jumped up from the ground and spat a mouthful of blood on the ground. He widened his eyes and glared at Xia Nanze. “It’s fine if you want to fight, but make it clear to me first!”

Xia Nanze sneered, “I don’t need to tell you.” As he spoke, he waved his fist and pounced again.

Jiang Kaiwei took the attack and shouted, “Why don’t you tell me? Why did Xia Xiaowan stay in the sanatorium? Where is the child?”

Xia Nanze was furious. “You still have the face to mention the child!” His attacks also began to lose the rhythm. He hugged Jiang Kaiwei and rolled on the ground. Then he grabbed Jiang Kaiwei’s neck with one hand. “Stop mentioning the child again!”

Jiang Kaiwei’s neck was pinched to the point that his face was red and his eyes bulged out. The difficulty of breathing made him instinctively force Xia Nanze’s hand off, but he continued to shout, “Why can’t I mention it? I find it strange. Since the child was gone, why does she still want to marry Gu Nianbin? If she is a bitch, why do you just watch and not stop her?”

“She will be a bitch if she stays with you!” The veins on Xia Nanze’s forehead popped out as he roared, and he almost went crazy.

Jiang Kaiwei’s eyes rolled up for being pinched so tight, and his voice weakened. But he was persistent. “Why, why did you say this? Could it be, uh… that child is…”

“Don’t say it!” Xia Nanze shouted and punched Jiang Kaiwei in the face.

Jiang Kaiwei tilted his head and instantly fainted.

Xia Nanze gasped for breath. He slowly got up from Jiang Kaiwei and kicked him hard. Then he sat down on the sofa and lit a cigarette with his hand trembling.

He wished he could kill Jiang Kaiwei to vent the anger in his heart. Every time he saw Xia Xiaowan going mad in the surveillance room, he had this idea. However, when Xia Xiaowan regained her composure, she always begged him sadly. She seemed to weep with blood when saying these words. “Brother, don’t go to him. If you go to him, I will die!”

When Xia Nanze saw Xia Xiaowan still threaten to suicide even when she was in such a circumstance, he didn’t know if she was afraid that he would be hurt or that he would hurt Jiang Kaiwei, but he could only promise her with tears in his eyes that he would not seek revenge on Jiang Kaiwei.

But this time, Jiang Kaiwei came to him, so he couldn’t be blamed.
