Chapter 1599: True Happiness

Liu Huamei’s car was a red Audi A4L, but this did not seem arrogant. It was reasonable for a rich daughter like Liu Huamei to drive a sports car and showed that she was actually a very low-key person.

“Director Liu, what will happen to the group’s work after you leave?” Jing Xiaolu couldn’t help but ask even though she thought that it was an abrupt question. It seemed that Liu Huamei intended to stay at Song Jiang permanently and didn’t plan to return to Jiangyan City, so wouldn’t it affect her work?

“The Finance Department is temporarily assigned to my elder brother, Liu Zhenan.” Liu Huamei smiled slightly, “Although I am still serving as the Financial Director, there are actually not many things for me to do anymore.”

“Ah?” Jing Xiaolu was startled but couldn’t figure it out. Why does it seem like Liu Huamei was promoted publicly but demoted in secret this time? While Liu Zhenan did not lose any power after being hit but instead took charge of the finance department. What the hell is going on inside the Jiangyan Group?

“Do you feel that I was promoted publicly but demoted in secret?” Liu Huamei saw Jing Xiaolu’s reaction and smiled. She knew what Jing Xiaolu was thinking.

“I do feel that way.” Jing Xiaolu did not try to hide it and nodded honestly.

“I have no choice since it’s my grandfather’s decision.” Liu Huamei shrugged, “However, it might not be a bad thing to come out and toughen up after all.”

“That’s also true.” Jing Xiaolu did not ask further as she felt that there were subjects best avoided in Liu Huamei’s words. These were personal matters, after all, and it was inappropriate to discuss publicly, “I wish that we’ll have a happy cooperation in the future!”

“Happy cooperation!” Liu Huamei laughed, “You don’t have to call me Director Liu anymore, just call me Huamei. We are on the same line now.”

“Okay, then Sister Huamei can call me Xiaolu in the future.” Jing Xiaolu agreed happily. Liu Huamei seemed slightly older than Jing Xiaolu, so Jing Xiaolu called her Sister Huamei.

“Okay, Xiaolu. I still don’t have a place to stay in Song Jiang. Can you, as the host, help me find a better hotel and book a room first?” Liu Huamei did not have a place to stay in Song Jiang. She didn’t know how long she would stay in Song Jiang this time, so she planned to book a room in a better hotel and stay there for a while.

” Hehe , it’s an easy task for me when it comes to hotels.” Jing Xiaolu laughed, “Song Jiang International Hotel is a subsidiary of our Ming Yang Company. I will just tell them to reserve a private room for you and the cost will be on us.”

” Oh? Your company has its own hotel business?” Lui Huamei was surprised after listening to Jing Xiaolu. She did not expect that Ming Yang’s business in Song Jiang was not small and they even had subordinate hotels. Lui Huamei had never seen any other companies under the Ming Yang Security Company when she investigated their background.

Jing Xiaolu guessed that Liu Huamei had previously investigated the background and asset structure of the Ming Yang Security Company when she saw Liu Huamei’s expression. Jing Xiaolu explained with a smile, “Sister Huamei, the Ming Yang Security Company, and the Ming Yang Entertainment Development Company are actually under the same management. The security company must be attached to the police station due to its special nature, so it looks like it has no connection with Ming Yang Entertainment on the surface. ”

“No wonder!” After listening to Jing Xiaolu’s explanation, Liu Huamei realized that she had underestimated the strength of the other party. “Since you are the hosts, I will make myself comfortable!”

“Just as you wish.” Jing Xiaolu also didn’t want Liu Huamei to be too estranged as both of them would be partners for a long period of time after all.

The power distribution of the Jiangyan Group had changed once Liu Huamei went to Song Jiang. Many bystanders went to Liu Zhenan’s side without prior consultation.

Liu Huamei was promoted publicly but demoted in secret. Liu Zhenan employed workers improperly but had still taken control of the company’s finance department. This result surprised many people.

Those people who were originally on Liu Zhenan’s side were proud at this moment. Liu Zhenan would definitely carry out a major cleanse in the company once he successfully got promoted. At that point, they would have a good opportunity to get promoted.

Those who were not on Liu Zhenan’s side felt danger now and were thinking about whether to join his side. Liu Zhenan’s right to speak in the Jiangyan Group had suddenly risen to a considerable level. Even his younger brother Liu Zheqiao, who had not dealt with Liu Zhenan before, also yielded and gave way to his superior strength.

Liu Zhenan gradually had the right to speak on the board of directors. Even Liu Hua, who was the president, had to start paying attention to his son’s opinions in many cases! There seemed to be a strange phenomenon happening at Grandfather Liu Jiangyan’s side! Grandfather Liu Jiangyan approved most of the suggestions put forward by Liu Zhenan, no matter if they were reasonable or not!

This unusual signal had led to many people, who were still hesitant, starting preparations to change sides…

In Song Jiang, a new escort company was officially established. The Ming Yang Security Company invested one hundred and fifty million yuan and accounted for fifty-one percent of the shares. The Jiangyan Group from Jiangyan City invested one hundred and twenty million yuan and funded the initial stage of the company’s staff training, and accounted for forty-nine percent of the shares.

It looked as if the Jiangyan Group had taken a big advantage, but this was a well-thought-out decision after Jing Xiaolu and Bao Sanli did some research. This unexpected opportunity had arisen from Liu Huamei’s dealings from within. Perhaps, this matter would still be in a deadlock if not for Liu Huamei. So Jing Xiaolu did not mind losing a little to Liu Huamei for good business performance.

Moreover, although the Ming Yang Security Company occupied a dominant position in the newly established company, it had never launched a similar business before. The initial establishment of the operation and escort teams had to rely on the Jiangyan Group’s recruitment and training.

The newly established company was named Mingjiang Escort Company with Jing Xiaolu as the executive president, Xu Xiaobin as the executive vice president, Liu Huamei as the investor director, and Bao Sanli as the Board Chairman.

Although Liu Zhenan had a stronger limelight in the Jiangyan Group, he did not make things difficult for Song Jiang’s branch. Liu Zhenan frankly approved Liu Huamei’s request for the secondment of the escort team and some trainers.

No one knew if it was because he thought that Liu Huamei could no longer pose any threat to him or because he did not dare do too much as Grandfather Liu Jiangyan was still there. In short, everything was doing fine. Everything went smoothly for the Jiangyan Group Song Jiang branch with Liu Huamei in charge.

This made the still nervous Xu Xiaobin relieved. He originally considered whether to leave the group for a while to lie low. After all, Liu Jifei had failed to become the deputy director of the finance department this time because of Xu Xiaobin’s matter.

Despite not taking the position, Liu Jifei was still a celebrity in front of Liu Zhenan so Xu Xiaobin was afraid that Liu Jifei would take revenge on him. However, Liu Jifei seemed to have disappeared and was not currently showing himself in public. He had not used Liu Zhenan to cause Xu Xiaobin any trouble.

Liu Zhenan did not voice any complaints about him being the executive vice president of the Mingjiang Escort Company. This made Xu Xiaobin wonder a little. Has Liu Zhenan really forgotten about it? Or does he not want to bother a nobody like me?

Anyway, all of these matters were moving in a good direction and Jing Xiaolu was finally relieved. She had completed such a large-scale cooperative business independently without Yang Ming. Although there were many twists and turns of events during this period and they had almost fallen into a big trap set by the other party, they fortunately turned peril into safety!

Otherwise, Jing Xiaolu wouldn’t feel good even if Yang Ming returned and did not say anything. Now, this matter had been completely solved by her own strength. Yang Ming would most likely look at her in a new light.

Jing Xiaolu narcissistically looked at herself in the mirror of the mobile phone screen as she sat in the spacious and bright office. Finally, she was not just a pretty face anymore. She could also help his career, but there was still a big gap between a woman who could help him a lot in his career and one that was inseparable to him. It seems that I still need to work hard!

She hoped that she could make Yang Ming realize that he really could not lose her one day. Jing Xiaolu knew that this would be her true happiness.

Chapter 1600: The Lancer Family’s Plan

It had been three days since Wang Songshan had left the Butterfly Family.

However, there was no news at all. Both Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan felt bad omens creep on their hearts.

Yang Ming had felt that something was wrong since yesterday. There should at least be some news no matter if Wang Songshan succeeded or failed, but there was none.

Although it was said that no news was considered as good news, this saying did not apply to Wang Songshan because he had carried the Butterfly Family’s unique communication equipment when he left. It could send warning or help signals to notify the family at any time from anywhere.

However, the family received no signals. This complicated the situation. The first possibility was that Wang Songshan had gotten caught unexpectedly before he could use the communication device to give warning. The second possibility was that the Lancer Family had a signal block set up nearby and no message could be transmitted.

Of course, the possibility of the second point was quite small because the Lancer family was a normal family. They could normally communicate with the outside world from within. It was impossible for them to set up some signal blocking systems. Moreover, the Butterfly Family communication device was similar to a satellite phone. The signal was transmitted via satellite, so the possibility of it being blocked was very small.

“Yang Ming, I’m a little worried about my dad…” Wang Xiaoyan frowned. She leaned beside Yang Ming and said softly.

Wang Xiaoyan was not the only one worried in the Butterfly Family. Fang Tian, ​​Wang Ruoshui, Butler Mu and others were also worried, but they all chose tacitly to not speak out. They were afraid that the two juniors, Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan, would worry.

Wang Songshan was a god-like being in the hearts of the Butterfly Family’s disciples. In their opinion, How could the family master be in trouble? However, things had turned out contrary to expectations. The entire Butterfly Family was filled with a gloomy atmosphere.

“What did the disciples in charge of the intelligence department say?” Yang Ming sighed and asked.

“I don’t know. I didn’t ask. Why don’t we ask our aunt and Butler Mu together?” Although Wang Xiaoyan was the Butterfly Family’s Miss, these family affairs were still in the hands of Butler Mu. Wang Xiaoyan had even less to worry about now that Wang Ruoshui had returned.

“Yeah, there might be news.” Yang Ming smiled and comforted her.

Wang Xiaoyan also smiled bitterly as she knew that Yang Ming was just comforting her. How would Butler Mu and aunt not notify me immediately if there was any news?

Fang Tian, ​​Wang Ruoshui, and Butler Mu all sat in the Butterfly Family meeting room. Excluding meal and break times, The three of them had sat there for most of the past two days. They were waiting for the family’s disciples to report the latest situation.

At first, Fang Tian and the others didn’t take it seriously. They thought that it was an easy and effortless task for Wang Songshan to sneak in and attack the prodigal young master Goode. However, all their hearts sank when there was no news for two days straight.

The initial confidence had faded away because things had become too strange. Wang Songshan was not the kind of person who disregards the big picture. He would contact the family regardless of success or failure when he arrived at the destination. However, this was not the case this time. It inevitably made people think of the worst outcome.

“Aunt, Butler Mu, is there any news from my dad?” Wang Xiaoyan pushed open the meeting room door. Chills crept upon her heart when she saw the gloomy mood on everyone’s faces. It seemed that most of her guesses had become reality…

“Not yet…” Butler Mu shook his head and smiled bitterly, “Yanyan, don’t worry. The family master is very skillful and nothing bad will happen…”

“Are there any special responses from the Lancer family?” Yang Ming asked about the Lancer Family instead of asking about Wang Songshan’s situation.

“No, according to the news from the disciples in charge of intelligence, the Lancer Family is madly taking revenge as usual on allies who did not help them when they asked for help. Many of these allies have now hidden and even their businesses are temporarily closed,” said Butler Mu.

Yang Ming couldn’t help but sigh slightly after listening to Butler Mu’s words, “It seems that Uncle Wang has no positive signs this time…”

Yang Ming’s words caused the meeting room to suddenly turn silent! Although everyone had thought of the worst scenario in their hearts, no one had ever said it because they did not want to believe that their thoughts were true as long as there was still a glimmer of hope. However, Yang Ming had said it and dispelled their only trace of illusion.

“Why are you so sure?” Fang Tian asked Yang Ming while looking at him. Fang Tian felt upset as he had not foreseen the uncertainty of his old friend’s life or death.

“If Uncle Wang had successfully killed Goode the Lancer family would definitely have had some sort of reaction.” Yang Ming slowly analyzed, “How would they still have the mood to take revenge on their allies if Goode was already dead? If Uncle Wang failed but successfully ran away, then it is impossible for the Lancer Family to not have any response too. They should focus on arresting Uncle Wang and should not have time to take revenge on those allies. So there is only one possibility based on the Lancer Family’s current reaction now. Uncle Wang should have been captured by the Lancer Family…”

“You mean, my dad was caught by someone from the Lancer Family?” Wang Xiaoyan asked in shock.

“This is the likeliest conclusion,” Yang Ming nodded and said, “But I think that Uncle Wang is not in a life-threatening situation. If they had really wanted to destroy us as they preached, the Lancer Family would have fearlessly killed Uncle Wang and published the news by now if he had really fallen into their hands.”

“Yang Ming has a point!” Butler Mu nodded after hearing Yang Ming’s analysis. “But if the family master has really fallen into the Lancer Family’s, why haven’t they released this news?”

“Maybe they haven’t figured out how to maximize the benefits yet,” Yang Ming sneered, “There’s an eighty percent chance that they want to use Uncle Wang as a bargaining chip, but they haven’t come up with an idea yet, so they have no need to make it public for the time being.”

Yang Ming had really guessed right. The Lancer Family really had these thoughts! Kevithan wanted to use Wang Songshan as a hostage and force him to make Wang Xiaoyan marry Goode, but Wang Songshan did not agree. So the Lancer Family had no choice but to let Wang Songshan consider it and they would release him whenever he arrived to a favorable conclusion!

The reason why they did not release the news of capturing Wang Songshan was that they were afraid that this move would attract a large number of Butterfly Family disciples to retaliate. There would be unavoidable casualties if more people were involved. Perhaps, it would really turn into an endless conflict between the two sides and it would not be as easy to undo this knot by then.

So in order to avoid this situation, the Lancer Family decided to hide the news until they came up with countermeasures. Anyway, it was best for them to continue as they were one day after the other. Maybe Wang Songshan would suddenly come round to the idea and everything would be solved smoothly.

It would not be too late to think about countermeasures by then even if Wang Songshan remained obsessed and did not come round to the idea. Anyways, it was absolutely impossible to release the news at this time.

“That is quite possible!” Butler Mu nodded. “So what should we do next?”

Butler Mu had long heard about Yang Ming’s extraordinary ability and unconsciously took him as their leader after he saw that the Buffon Family’s patriarch, Old Buffon, was actually Yang Ming’s disciple. He asked Yang Ming first in every situation.
