Xie Wenkai pursed his lips and waited for Jiang Tong’s next words with both anticipation and fear.
Jiang Tong chuckled and continued, “Apart from this call, I will also contact other people. I will let you take over the power of the Xie family as soon as possible and become the CEO of the Six Blessings Corporation. I will let you not only have the final say in the company, but also in the family. I will let your mother bow down to you and stop controlling you. She will even start to fear you. She will understand that she can no longer control you and that you are powerful. She can only accept her fate and give up on trying to control you. As for your father, he should be very pleased and proud of you,” said Jiang Tong. She leaned back on the chair and shook her phone again. “Choose. These two options.”
Xie Wenkai was in a daze, and so was Zhou Jingyun. Both of them felt that the second option Jiang Tong mentioned was like a fairy tale!
“Xie Wenkai, please choose. Your fate is in your own hands,” Jiang Tong said to Xie Wenkai and then waited for Xie Wenkai’s answer with a smile.
Xie Wenkai was still in a daze. He moved his fingers slightly, then raised them and showed two fingers hesitantly. He looked at Jiang Tong and said, “The… second option, is it okay?” He hesitated when he chose and asked Jiang Tong. The main reason was that the second option was too difficult, and he felt that the results Jiang Tong mentioned were impossible to accomplish.
“Of course,” Jiang Tong smiled, then pressed the call button and put the phone to her ear. Before Zhou Jingyun could say anything, Jiang Tong dialed the number. He opened his mouth but didn’t say anything, then he walked to Jiang Tong’s side and sat down. He tilted his head to eavesdrop. In fact, he wasn’t eavesdropping anymore. He was listening openly. Jiang Tong didn’t care about Zhou Jingyun. He could listen if he wanted to. It would be a miracle if he could hear anything.
Perhaps it was because of Zhou Jingyun’s actions, Xie Wenkai also stood up and walked quickly toward Jiang Tong. He leaned on Jiang Tong’s shoulder and listened to the phone from another angle.
These two men were really… Jiang Tong looked at Zhou Jingyun and Xie Wenkai speechlessly. She asked, “Do you want me to put the phone on speaker? Won’t the two of you be tired trying to listen like this?” At this moment, the phone was picked up after two beeps. Jiang Tong didn’t have time to put the phone on speaker mode and immediately directed her attention to the phone call.
“Hello? Who is this?” The person on the other end of the phone asked. It was a man with a deep voice.
“Have you been dreaming recently? Have you been dreaming about Liang Dong in the Northern Wing Warehouse?” Jiang Tong asked calmly. The phone suddenly went silent. Even the sound of breathing was gone. Then there were some soft background noises. It seemed that the person holding the phone was walking quickly, and it sounded like the phone was rubbing against his clothes. It seemed like he hid the phone and walked quickly. This lasted for more than ten seconds. Then, it suddenly became quiet again. It was especially quiet. There was no background noise. It would only sound like this in a closed space. Perhaps the man holding the phone hid in an empty room.
“Who are you?” The deep voice appeared again. He lowered his voice with some nervousness.
“Bai Guanjie told me to tell you that you’ve made a lot of money in the past few years, right?” Jiang Tong said lightly.
“You! Who exactly are you!” The man on the other side of the phone was anxious. Jiang Tong raised her left hand and looked at the time on her watch. It was almost five o’clock in the afternoon. “See you in Spring Breeze Teahouse’s Four Seasons Spring private room in an hour.” After saying that, Jiang Tong hung up the phone.
The call had ended. Jiang Tong and the man had only exchanged less than ten sentences.
Zhou Jingyun sat up straight and looked at Jiang Tong expressionlessly. Xie Wenkai also sat up straight. Jiang Tong raised her hand and patted Xie Wenkai’s back. Xie Wenkai then stood up and looked at Jiang Tong expressionlessly. Both of them had heard the content of Jiang Tong’s call and knew what Jiang Tong had said to the other party. However, the call ended just like that. Only a few sentences were exchanged between them. What did that mean? They could not understand what Jiang Tong’s conversation with that man meant at all. The content was too little, and they could not analyze anything at all. There were only two names mentioned in total, and there was also a warehouse name. What the h*ll was that phone call?
The second option that Jiang Tong had mentioned before was to make Xie Wenkai the person who would be in charge of the Xie family and the Six Blessings Corporation. Then, Jiang Tong made such a call? And the phone call only consisted of a few words?
