Chapter 190: Your Apology Is Worthless

Wen Nan’s face turned pale when she heard the man’s threat.

“I didn’t mean it that way. 1 just wanted to chat with Beibei, but she was so hostile that 1 lost control and said some words. 1 didn’t do it on purpose. I’m sorry, Mr. Chen.”

Jiang Jingchen let out a casual chuckle.

“Wen Nan, your apology is worthless.”

Wen Nan panicked and pleaded, “Mr. Chen, I really just said those things to Beibei in a fit of anger. I didn’t mean to betray you. You asked me to move out of the villa and I obediently moved out. Mr. Chen, please believe me.”

Jiang Jingchen put down his book, took off his mask, and took a sip of coffee.

Wen Nan’s eyes widened in surprise when she saw him take off his mask in public and there were no scars on his face.

“Mr. Chen, you’ve stopped disguising yourself?”

“You’ve already let my secret out. There’s no point disguising anymore.” Jiang Jingchen’s tone was filled with disdain as he put down his coffee.

“Song Zhou, get me another cup of coffee. This one’s too bitter.”

Song Zhou was surprised. “Young Master, didn’t you prefer bitter coffee?”

Jiang Jingchen rested his chin on one hand and replied unhurriedly, “People change. Before I got married, some people thought they could bully others just because 1 didn’t call out their little tricks.”

There were women who tried to get close to Jiang Jingchen when Wen Nan treated him in the past. But they were all chased away by Wen Nan, in her capacity as his girlfriend.

At that time, he indulged Wen Nan’s behavior because he didn’t want to be bothered by women.

However, he was married now, yet Wen Nan continued with her bullying behavior and even made a few mistakes. She was just asking for a lesson!

Song Zhou glanced at Wen Nan and said respectfully, “Okay, 1’11 get you a different coffee.”

Jiang Jingchen looked at Wen Nan and asked, “How much did you tell Jiang Minglang about me?”

“No, no, 1 swear, I didn’t say a word, Mr. Chen.” Wen Nan raised her hand.

“Really? You’ve been hanging out with Jiang Minglang for so long and you didn’t say a word about me?”

Wen Nan replied, “No, 1 know why Jiang Minglang cozied up to me, and I also know that you want to deal with him, so why would 1 tell him about your plan?”

She knew that Jiang Jingchen was a cold man. If she couldn’t get his support, she could only ask Jiang Minglang to help.

She also knew what Jiang Minglang was up to. Once she told him about Jiang Jingchen, she would be worthless to him, so she couldn’t tell him.

“It’s best if you hadn’t said anything. Wen Nan, you know how powerful I am. It’s just a simple order if 1 wanted you dead.”

Wen Nan nodded respectfully. She had seen with her own eyes how Jiang Jingchen had asked Song Zhou to take care of people. She was terrified of him.

“I know. I wouldn’t dare.”

“Mr. Chen, then, about the Wen family, will you…”

Jiang Jingchen glared at her coldly and Wen Nan quickly shut up, feeling depressed.

His expression clearly showed that he wasn’t going to help her. He had gone crazy because of Tang Beibei.

“Wen Nan, you should know your place. Don’t touch things that you shouldn’t.”

Wen Nan understood. He was warning her not to provoke Tang Beibei, which made her even angrier.

She used to be the only woman by his side but since Tang Beibei appeared, the situation had completely gone out of control. She could not accept the stark difference and hated Tang Beibei even more.

“I understand, Mr. Chen.”

Song Zhou brought over a fresh cup of coffee but Jiang Jingchen stood up and said, “Give the coffee to Wen Nan. From now on, we’ll have nothing to do with each other.”

Wen Nan felt bitter. She looked at the cup of coffee and was in no mood to take it.

“Mr. Chen, why do you like Tang Beibei? I’m no worse than her.”

Jiang Jingchen looked at her condescendingly. “Huh? What does my wife have to do with you?”

“No matter what, I’ve taken care of you for a few years. You know long ago that I liked you. Why won’t you accept me?” Wen Nan asked indignantly.

Jiang Jingchen replied, “Maybe it’s because you’re too ugly?”

“Your face is so disgusting that 1 can’t take it. You’re disgusting!”

Since she mentioned that she had been by his side for a few years, she should know his personality well. She was just asking for humiliation when she asked such a question.

Wen Nan was boiling with rage when the man she liked humiliated her like that.

But she wouldn’t act impudent to his face. She could only hold back her tears and watch him leave.

Jiang Jingchen had derogated her today. She would make him regret what he said today when she had power!

Jiang Jingchen got into the car and said to Song Zhou, “Tell Jiang Minglang about my meeting with Wen Nan and throw in some scandals about Wen Nan.” “Alright, I’ll contact Yang Hao.”

“Tell Yang Hao to be careful. Although Jiang Minglang is stupid, it doesn’t mean that there aren’t smart people around him.”

After all, Jiang Minglang held an important position in the company. There must be some smart people around him. The reason why the Jiang Corporation could become so big was not because of any specific leader but because of the management system of the company.

“I’ll remind Yang Hao. However, this kid is also very cunning.”

“Yes, I know. I’d give him top recognition if he took down Jiang Corporation!”

Song Zhou contacted Yang Hao. Yang Hao was so busy that he couldn’t help but complain when he heard Song Zhou’s request.

“Since Mr. Chen is so free at home, can he help me with some work? I’m so busy that 1 don’t even have time to sleep!”

Song Zhou rubbed his nose. His young master had indeed been idling recently but if they wanted him to work, they would have to give him something. Otherwise, he would spend all his time studying how to pamper his wife.

“Get someone to mail it over. Make sure the package is well-disguised. No one can find out that we are in contact. Mr. Chen’s identity can’t be exposed yet.”

“Don’t worry about that. Mr. Chen is the most cunning fox I know. Even if something went wrong with his plan, it’s not going to be me.”

Yang Hao couldn’t help but added, “By the way, can you find an opportunity for me to meet the young madam?”

Song Zhou cleared his throat. “You should focus on your work. It’s useless thinking about a woman who’s not yours.”

Song Zhou hung up the phone and went back to Jiang Jingchen and told him fawningly, “Young Master, you’re in a good mood today, so you should reward yourself with some documents. Yang Hao said he couldn’t understand them, so he asked you to take a look.”

“Are you trying to trick me into working? I’m not in the mood.”

Song Zhou was anxious. “Then what are you in the mood for? Young Madam has already gone to school. Aren’t you bored in the villa alone?”

Jiang Jingchen’s face darkened, and he sneered. “Me bored? I’m busy thinking about my wife. How can I have the time to read those documents? I’m not free!”

Song Zhou was so angry that he wanted to yank off the steering wheel. He wanted to wake up the man who used to work day and night.

“Young Master, think about it. You’ve started having sex with Young Madam, you may have a baby soon. If you work now, you can earn more money to buy milk powder for the baby.”

“Also, it takes quite a bit of money to take good care of Young Madam. The weather is turning cold, and you’ll have to buy new clothes for Young Madam. That’s another expense of unknown amount.”

Song Zhou tried to persuade him with head as well as heart, hoping that the young master would heed his advice.

Jiang Jingchen smiled when he heard Song Zhou mention baby. “Leave the documents in the study, but before I get to work, 1 must go get my wife some early winter clothes..”
