Chapter 15: Chapter 15: It Turns Out That He Came_1
Ren Chuqing answered the phone.
"Chuqing, let's meet up. I'm planning to give you that research manual of yours," Jiang Huai's voice came from the phone.
"Sure, where do we meet?" she asked.
On her manual, there were quite a few contents that were her private research, not part of the company's product research.
Jiang Huai gave her the address.
Today, Jiang Huai had chosen a private room in a members' club for their meeting.
To Ren Chuqing's surprise, Jiang Huai's index finger was also braced with a splint.
However, she didn't care about Jiang Huai's situation and simply asked, "Where is the manual?"
"I've brought the manual, but about the cooperation with GGK Capital, I hope you can return to the company to continue being in charge of it," Jiang Huai said.
Ren Chuqing sneered, "Jiang Huai, I've already resigned. You want me to come back to the company to take charge of the GGK Capital matters now, what do you think I am?"
Jiang Huai frowned, but thinking of Qin Jingzhi's attitude, he gritted his teeth and said, "You can name any conditions, feel free to do so."
"No matter the conditions, I won't return to the company," she replied coldly.
Jiang Huai's face grew even more embarrassed, "Ren Chuqing, if you would agree to take care of this matter, I can give you 10% of the company's shares!"
She smiled calmly; this company was one she and Jiang Huai had founded together, and she had been in charge of the two most important departments, research and development, and sales. Yet now, Jiang Huai spoke of these 10% shares as if he was bestowing charity upon her.
"No need. Keep the shares for yourself, just give me my manual back!" she said.
"If you don't agree, then don't even think about getting the manual back. I could release the contents of the manual under the company's name, and even if you sue, you probably won't win. After all, the contents were completed during your tenure at the company," Jiang Huai threatened.
Ren Chuqing looked at him coldly, "It turns out you're more despicable than I imagined!"
Jiang Huai felt awkward, but for the cooperation with GGK, he couldn't care less about his pride!
"As long as you're willing to agree, of course, I wouldn't do such a thing!"
"Do whatever you want, but if you really do release it in the name of the company, you'd better be prepared for the consequences. Your company might just be completely ruined!" Ren Chuqing finished speaking and left the private room straight away!
Jiang Huai hurriedly chased after her, "Chuqing, wait..."
But before he could finish, his words were interrupted by another voice, "Jiang Huai, save me!"
Jiang Huai turned his head to see Su Yuer standing not far away, surrounded by several men, one of whom was even wrapping an arm around Su Yuer's waist and tussling with her.
And the man holding Su Yuer, Jiang Huai knew him; he was someone he couldn't afford to offend in City Yan.
Jiang Huai quickly approached with a smile and said, "Young Master Wang, this is my girlfriend Yuer. She came looking for me. Please allow me to take her with me."
"Girlfriend? Shouldn't your girlfriend be Miss Ren?" Wang Shaoquan's lustful gaze fell on Ren Chuqing.
Ren Chuqing frowned; she had met Wang Shaoquan before. He had harassed her when talking business with the Wang Family before, but hadn't succeeded!
She heard that this club also had shares owned by the Wang Family.
That's why, his current harassment of Su Yuer had gone unnoticed by the club's waiters.
"How could I lie to Young Master Wang? I've already broken up with Chuqing. Yuer really is my girlfriend," Jiang Huai hurriedly said.
Wang Shaoquan laughed loudly and said to Ren Chuqing, "Ren Chuqing, if only you had known today's troubles, you should have stayed with me from the beginning, right?"
"Too bad, I don't want to stay with anyone," she said as she stepped forward, intending to leave.
Wang Shaoquan raised his hand, and the people beside him immediately blocked Ren Chuqing's path.
Wang Shaoquan said to Jiang Huai, "Jiang Huai, my buddies and I are drinking here today and we need someone to accompany us. Between your ex-girlfriend and current girlfriend, choose one to take with you. The other will stay and drink with us!"
Although he was talking about drinking, anyone knew that the one who stayed would likely experience something disgusting.
Jiang Huai's face turned white as he met Su Yuyu's pitiable gaze. Although Ren Chuqing was tied to the cooperation with GGK, Yuer had been the one Jiang Huai yearned for all these years!
Now that Yuer had finally become his girlfriend, he had sworn to protect her!
Wang Shaoquan could not be offended, so now, there was no choice but to sacrifice Ren Chuqing!
"Chu Qing, I'm sorry, uh... could you entertain Young Master Wang for a bit?" At that moment, Jiang Huai couldn't even bring himself to look at Ren Chuqing.
Ren Chuqing wasn't at all surprised by Jiang Huai's decision; in her heart, there wasn't the slightest ripple. So, it really meant she had stopped loving Jiang Huai, hadn't it?
Wang Shaoquan's laughter echoed in her ears, "Looks like Miss Ren can only join the boys for a drink today."
"Jiang Huai doesn't have the right to make choices for me," she said coldly.
"What, giving you face and you don't want it, are you really forcing us to get physical?" Wang Shaoquan's face darkened as he reached out to grab Ren Chuqing.
Ren Chuqing flung her bag at Wang Shaoquan and turned to escape.
But suddenly, a pain shot through her ankle, the injury from saving Xiao Yuan from a car accident had not fully healed.
In the blink of an eye, Ren Chuqing was caught by Wang Shaoquan.
"Hold her down for me, I don't believe I can't handle this woman today!" he barked.
Immediately, someone pinned Ren Chuqing down.
A lascivious smile spread across Wang Shaoquan's face as he poured a small bottle of liquid into Ren Chuqing's mouth, "Since you're so unwilling, then I'll make you beg for me!"
A sinking feeling hit Ren Chuqing; she could guess what the drug was.
She struggled fiercely; she had to escape no matter what!
As Wang Shaoquan's hand reached for her, she instinctively bit down!
"You bitch, let go!" Wang Shaoquan cried out in pain.
But she didn't let go, biting down hard, with a burning heat surging through her body and the taste of blood filling her mouth!
Wang Shaoquan hit her relentlessly, and the men with him struggled to pull Ren Chuqing away.
Her body was in pain!
The pain, along with the heat, grew more intense, and it seemed like her reason was slipping away.
At this moment, all her will was focused on keeping her bite locked in.
Could she die? Would she die here?
She had thought she still had a year, but it turned out she could die right here!
If she died, would Ah Qing be sad for her?
In her peripheral vision, Ren Chuqing caught sight of Jiang Huai, standing stiffly not far off, holding Su Yuyu tightly in his arms.
The man who had once said he would protect her, who would care for her, now held another woman.
Was there anyone left to protect her? Probably not, there probably wasn't such a person anymore!
Just as Ren Chuqing was about to pass out from the pain, suddenly a voice rang out!
"Stop!"
Ren Chuqing was startled; that voice...
She released her bite and desperately turned her head toward the sound... A familiar figure appeared in her blurred vision.
And Jiang Huai, who had been standing aside, fixed his gaze on the figure rushing over, his pupils suddenly constricting.
That person was...
