Jiang Nuan knew he had asked her out for this matter, but there was no need to discuss work before eating.
Jiang Nuan picked up her chopsticks, picked up some preserved mustard greens from under the steamed pork belly with preserved mustard greens, and took a bite with rice. It was delicious. Preserved mustard greens were the best part of the dish, perfect with rice. After a few bites of rice, she looked at him casually.
Although Rong Yin appeared calm on the surface, he was already anxious and uneasy inside. He was afraid that Jiang Nuan would refuse him again.
He looked at Jiang Nuan with anticipation. Jiang Nuan thought for a moment and then said, "I agree to your fifty-fifty profit split."
Rong Yin smiled when he heard this, brighter than the sun.
With a fifty-fifty profit split, he could still make a fortune.
His peach blossom eyes swept over Jiang Nuan's nonchalant demeanor, and his heart instantly became restless. How could she be so calm?
How could she be so indifferent?
"Nuannuan, can I interview you? Why did you agree? What was your reason for agreeing?" Rong Yin was truly too excited. He had been delayed here for months for this project, but Jiang Nuan's agreement to a fifty-fifty split was worth it.
Jiang Nuan looked at his excessive excitement, recalling how someone had fainted twice because of his daughter and son. She replied to him somewhat helplessly, "I'll sign with you for the sake of money."
Damn it!
The power of money was truly amazing!
Immediately, Rong Yin's smile froze slightly. Wasn't he more charming than money?
The final outcome was that money conquered Jiang Nuan, and she had nothing to do with it.
"Nuannuan, try some of this steamed fish. It's incredibly delicious." Rong Yin was overjoyed and placed half a fish onto the bone plate in front of Jiang Nuan.
Jiang Nuan: "..." She raised her eyes and looked at the man in front of her who was getting carried away.
She said faintly, "Third Master Rong, is this where the bones go?"
Rong Yin smiled and said, "It's fine, these bowls and chopsticks are brand new. I asked the boss to buy new ones after I ordered the meal."
Jiang Nuan: "..." It was such a hassle to even eat a meal. Jiang Nuan didn't understand.
But looking at the steamed fish, which was as big as the sole of her shoe, Jiang Nuan was troubled. Although she really liked this dish, could she still eat other dishes after finishing this half fish?
She also really wanted to try that plate of lemon shrimp!
Rong Yin saw the look in Jiang Nuan's eyes and quickly moved the shrimp in front of her, smiling, "Nuannuan, it's good for girls to eat more shrimp."
Jiang Nuan glanced at him faintly, picked up a lemon shrimp, wow! It was delicious. The lemon flavor completely masked the fishiness of the shrimp, and it was both springy and tender.
"It's delicious!" Jiang Nuan had a fervent pursuit of good food. When she went to a strange city, she would always look for famous local snacks.
After eating, she felt very comfortable.
"Nuannuan, eat more if it's delicious." If she was happy after eating, he would sign the contract tonight.
This was the contract he had waited the longest for in his life, all because of the precise medicinal prescriptions in Jiang Nuan's mind.
Jiang Nuan's research could shock the world, yet she acted as if nothing had happened. This woman was so calm it made it hard to breathe.
He found such a person incomprehensible.
Jiang Nuan: "...Thank you, I'm eating!"
Elder Master Jiang lived in a well-located courtyard in the city. It was a two-and-a-half-story villa, with some low houses built around it, somewhat resembling a siheyuan.
In the garden, under the pavilion, on a beautiful root wood tea table, the water in the zisha teapot had already boiled.
He reached out and gracefully picked up the teapot to brew tea. The finest Biluochun emitted a faint fragrance.
He smiled slightly, picked up the teacup, and took a sip. The familiar mellow aroma filled his mouth.
He particularly loved Biluochun tea.
Before long, his special assistant Jiang Wei walked in hurriedly.
Jiang Wei was middle-aged, the son of the elder's comrade-in-arms. After his comrade sacrificed himself, his wife also passed away, leaving Jiang Wei alone and with no one to rely on. Jiang Beichen adopted him, and he had since become his right-hand man.
"Chairman, we haven't found Vicky yet, but today we learned that the third young master of the Rong family might be going to sign a contract with Vicky." That kid's movements were quite peculiar; his people actually lost track of him.
The person who seemed to be joking around was actually quite vigilant.
"Lu Jin Yue has been in Jinshi for a long time and might also be targeting Vicky. However, there's no news from Lu Jin Yue either." This Vicky was like a gust of wind. Everyone said she had returned to Jinshi, but no one had seen her.
The Lu family also operated in medical equipment and research, but it was not as large as the Rong family.
Lu Jin Yue had not returned. Although he had caused such an embarrassing incident, it could be considered cutting his losses in time.
The elder shook his head and said, "Jiang Wei, if you can't find her, then forget it. The biggest gain here is that I've found my granddaughter. As for business, we can take it slow."
"Even if Rong Yin finds Vicky, we still have opportunities to cooperate with the Rong family. Keep an eye on Rong Yin."
"Rong Yin is young and vigorous, arrogant and unrestrained. If he really signs with Vicky, he will definitely make some moves tonight."
"Okay, Chairman. What about Miss, should we have her come back?" Jiang Wei was very happy that the elder finally had family.
When his granddaughter was mentioned, the usually rigorous elder showed unexpected warmth.
"Not yet. It's almost the fifteenth of August. Nuannuan said she would come back to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival with me, bringing her three children. It will be quite lively then. Have the housekeeper prepare, clean the house thoroughly, arrange all the rooms upstairs, so they can stay close together, the mother and her four children. Also, instruct the kitchen to buy more fish and shrimp, and make some meatballs, which children especially like."
Jiang Wei smiled and said, "Okay, Chairman, I'll convey the instructions shortly."
Jiang Beichen beckoned him over and said, "Jiang Wei, come have a cup of tea before you go. You're very busy every day, and you rarely have time to have tea with me recently."
Jiang Wei didn't stand on ceremony and walked over to sit opposite the elder.
The elder picked up the teapot and poured him a cup of tea.
Then he asked, "Tan Wenbin is dead, and the clue is broken again. It seems the Yang family acted very quickly."
Jiang Wei also nodded: "Elder, Old Master Yang is making mistakes one by one. It will not be long before we bring down the Yang family."
The elder smiled and said casually, "It's just ridding the people of a menace! Even if their Yang family falls, those children who were harmed in the past, even if time allows, cannot undo the harm they suffered."
"Tan Wenbin is dead. Next are Jiang Shuo and Tan Xue in prison. You must keep a close eye on these two people. They both know what happened back then, and the Yang family will not let them go. Now, we can only find other clues from them." Jiang Beichen sighed slightly. Young people are always too impatient.
He understood Jiang Xingyu's intentions, wanting to help Nuannuan find her family quickly, but as soon as he started tracking them, the Yang family immediately detected the movement, leading to Tan Wenbin being directly killed.
