"I can't stop it!" Jiang Yi said.
"You have to find a way even if you can't. We are already struggling to deal with Ye Yanran. If she also gets involved with Changsun Hao and has the Capital Business Association help her, wouldn't we have even less chance of winning?"
Dongfang Mei's expression became even more solemn.
The more Dongfang Mei thought about it, the more worried she became.
Jiang Yi couldn't help but laugh.
"What are you laughing at?"
Dongfang Mei said, "This matter is of great importance, and I'm not joking."
"Your worries are unnecessary. Let alone a mere Changsun Hao, even if the entire Capital Business Association helps Ye Yanran, Ye Yanran won't be able to defeat us. Don't worry! I have a way!"
Jiang Yi said, "If it really doesn't work, I'll just say a word to Changsun Xiong. As long as Changsun Xiong warns the people of the Capital Business Association, no one in the Capital Business Association will dare to help Ye Yanran."
A hint of worry still showed on Dongfang Mei's face.
Just then, Li Ping returned.
Seeing this, Dongfang Mei quickly got up to pour Li Ping a glass of water.
Li Ping took the glass, glanced at Dongfang Mei, and then withdrew her gaze.
She sat on the sofa and said to Jiang Yi, "I saw the news today that Changsun Hao made a scene at the Royal Hotel, causing a lot of discussion. You were there, what exactly happened?"
Jiang Yi recounted the whole incident.
After listening, Li Ping's expression began to turn serious.
"You're too reckless. Changsun Hao is the son of Changsun Xiong, the president of the Capital Business Association. With such a big incident, Changsun Xiong will definitely not let it go."
"Don't forget, our Tiansheng Group still relies on the Capital Business Association for help. If we lose their support, Tiansheng Group will surely struggle," Li Ping said.
"It's fine!" Jiang Yi said.
"How can it be fine?"
Li Ping frowned and said, "The entire capital is discussing Changsun Hao now. Changsun Hao has become the villain in everyone's mouths, his reputation is completely ruined. Moreover, even Changsun Xiong is being discussed."
"I had already informed Changsun Xiong before dealing with Changsun Hao. He won't fall out with me over this matter," Jiang Yi explained.
Hearing this, Li Ping breathed a sigh of relief.
However, Li Ping was still a bit worried and said to Jiang Yi and Dongfang Mei, "How about this! You two take some time to go see Changsun Xiong, explain the situation clearly, and apologize to him."
Jiang Yi shrugged.
Even if he went to apologize, Changsun Xiong wouldn't dare to accept it.
Besides, the entire incident was initiated by Changsun Hao provoking him, and it had little to do with him.
Even if an apology was needed, it should be Changsun Xiong apologizing to him.
"You must listen to me this time!" Li Ping said with a frown.
"We'll go apologize tomorrow!" Dongfang Mei said quickly.
Dongfang Mei didn't want to upset Li Ping over this matter, and she was also a bit worried.
"And you?" Li Ping's gaze fell on Jiang Yi.
"Alright, I'll apologize!"
Jiang Yi said helplessly.
"I'm asking you to do this for your own good. Changsun Xiong is the president of the Capital Business Association and manages the entire business community in the capital. We can only get along with him, not have any conflicts with him."
"You rarely handle company matters, so you are not attentive to many things, and you wouldn't know that you must maintain good relations with such important figures!"
Li Ping continued, "Take a simple project for example. If we have no connections in the Capital Business Association, it's very difficult to secure a project. But it's different when we have connections."
"The other party will even proactively approach us to discuss projects, and the procedures for projects that should take a month can be completed in one or two hours because of connections in the Capital Business Association."
Li Ping said a lot.
Jiang Yi naturally understood these principles.
However, he felt that an apology was completely unnecessary.
As long as he opened his mouth, Changsun Xiong would listen to him, no matter what the matter was.
Just like when Xiao Xin went missing before.
As soon as Jiang Yi spoke, Changsun Xiong immediately dispatched people to search for Xiao Xin everywhere.
"Mom is right, we need to consider the consequences carefully in the future," Dongfang Mei said.
Dongfang Mei, in order to maintain a good relationship with Li Ping, directly sided with her.
"You are Jiang Yi's wife. From now on, you keep a closer eye on Jiang Yi and don't let him act recklessly," Li Ping said.
"Mm!"
Dongfang Mei nodded quickly.
"By the way, when I was negotiating a project today, I passed by a jewelry store and bought a necklace. This necklace isn't suitable for someone my age, so I'll give it to you!"
Li Ping said, handing the box containing the necklace to Dongfang Mei.
Dongfang Mei was a bit stunned!
Last time, Li Ping had just given her a bracelet, and now she was giving her a necklace.
"What, you don't like it?" Li Ping asked.
"I like it. I like any gift that Mom gives me."
Dongfang Mei quickly accepted it.
Seeing that it was getting late, Li Ping went back to her room to rest.
After Li Ping left, Dongfang Mei opened the box.
She saw a very exquisite necklace inside. The necklace was worth a fortune, at least over a million yuan.
Dongfang Mei was very happy.
"It seems Mom really likes me. She's already given me gifts twice!" Dongfang Mei said with a smile.
Then, Dongfang Mei put on the necklace and asked Jiang Yi, "Is it beautiful?"
"Beautiful!" Jiang Yi said.
"Is it as beautiful as the one Ye Yanran wore at the Royal Hotel today?" Dongfang Mei continued to ask.
Jiang Yi was a bit speechless.
Dongfang Mei had brought the topic back to Ye Yanran, even comparing wearing a necklace to her.
"It's more beautiful than Ye Yanran's!" Jiang Yi said helplessly.
"That's not what you truly think. Your face was full of reluctance when you spoke just now. You must be saying that to make me happy."
Dongfang Mei knitted her brows.
Jiang Yi didn't know what to say.
Dongfang Mei had also become so calculating.
"I'm tired!"
Jiang Yi said and walked straight towards the room.
Dongfang Mei quickly chased after him, "Tell me the truth, who is more beautiful..."
The next morning, Jiang Yi woke up early.
Jiang Yi planned to buy some cigarettes. As soon as he reached the villa entrance, he saw Dongfang Xun.
Dongfang Xun was sleeping on the stone steps at the corner of the wall.
He looked very disheveled, clearly having spent the night there.
"Cough, cough..."
Jiang Yi coughed lightly.
Dongfang Xun was startled awake by the cough. He opened his eyes, saw Jiang Yi, and was momentarily stunned. He quickly got up from the ground.
"Jiang Yi, help me!"
Dongfang Xun said to Jiang Yi with an imploring look.
"You have already severed ties with us, yet you come here to beg for my help. This is a bit unreasonable," Jiang Yi said indifferently.
