Chapter 149 Shares in Hand
Seeing this, Zhou Qing put away the USB drive in his hand, bowed slightly to Jiang Jun, and looked extremely respectful.
"My mission is complete, Mr. Jiang, I'll be leaving now."
Jiang Jun clenched his fist, his lips trembling as if he wanted to say something, but watching Zhou Qing leave, he still didn't say a word. He lowered his head dejectedly and silently returned to his room.
Jiang Rao's cries still seemed to echo in his ears. He looked at the empty room, his head lolled to the side, and he fainted.
In the hospital, Xiao Jingchen, who had regained consciousness, looked down at Lin Ran on the bed. His pale face was devoid of color, and even his usually rosy lips were deathly white.
"President Xiao, Jiang Jun has arrived."
Zhou Qing lowered her voice, but even so, Xiao Jingchen still glared at her.
He frowned, covered Lin Ran with the blanket, and then turned and left the ward.
Outside, Jiang Jun looked more than ten years older than before, with his hair completely white. He also lacked his former energy when he saw Xiao Jingchen come out.
"Mr. Xiao, Rao Rao, she..."
"She was confused for a moment. Mr. Xiao, please forgive her. I will cover all of Miss Lin's medical expenses. Is that alright with you?"
Perhaps because he had lost his granddaughter, Jiang Jun was completely different from his usual arrogant self, and his meek and submissive demeanor was quite different from his usual appearance.
"Confused for a moment?"
Xiao Jingchen sneered, raised his eyes slightly, and tapped his index finger lightly on the table a few times.
“My wife is still unconscious in the hospital room. It turns out that in Uncle Jiang’s eyes, she was just confused for a moment.”
Despite the seemingly casual tone, Jiang Jun felt immense pressure, his back soaked with cold sweat.
"Pushing someone off a cliff is murder, and murder is punishable by death."
Jiang Jun clenched his fist, took a deep breath, and seemed to have made a decision.
“Mr. Xiao, if you are willing to let Rao Rao go, I am willing to sell you the shares I hold.”
"If you let us go abroad, we will never come back to China."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Jingchen's expression changed, and a deep light flashed in his eyes. He glanced at him casually but did not agree immediately.
"Let's talk about it when Lin Ran wakes up."
Jiang Jun was taken aback, then nodded, his expression much better than before.
He knew Xiao Jingchen well. Although he hadn't directly agreed, it was tantamount to him indirectly agreeing to his request.
I just hope Lin Ran can wake up soon.
Jiang Jun was unaware that after he left, Xiao Jingchen also left the hospital with Zhou Qing.
In the basement of the villa, Jiang Rao huddled in a corner, looking disheveled. The dim incandescent light above her head swayed, and unknown animals scurried around on the ground. Everything about her was unacceptable to this once proud young lady.
She hugged her legs tightly, muttering something in a trembling voice.
"I will never do it again, please help me, I will never do it again."
With a bang, the basement door was flung open.
Jiang Rao subconsciously looked up and caught sight of the man she once loved, which made her tremble even more violently.
"I'm sorry, I really know I was wrong, I'll never do it again, please let me go, sob sob..."
Xiao Jingchen walked over step by step, glanced at Jiang Rao who was no longer fully conscious, and his eyes were filled with undisguised killing intent.
He came once a few days ago after Jiang Rao was brought back, asking her how she managed to call Lin Ran out, but no matter how much he pressed her, Jiang Rao refused to say a word.
Later, no matter what Xiao Jingchen asked, Jiang Rao would only shake her head and apologize.
"Mr. Xiao, we still cannot obtain the content of that phone call."
Hearing this, Xiao Jingchen was not surprised at all. He stared at Jiang Rao for a long time, his eyes filled with deep disgust.
"Keep an eye on her and don't let her get hurt."
"Let's send her away after the share transaction is completed."
"Okay Mr. Xiao."
Xiao Jingchen turned and left the basement. He returned to the villa, washed himself thoroughly, and then went to the company.
Jiang Jun had been waiting in his office for quite some time.
He stared longingly at Xiao Jingchen, and when he saw that Xiao had come alone, a look of disappointment flashed across his face, and he seemed to age instantly.
"Mr. Xiao... Rao Rao, she..."
Having not seen Jiang Rao for several days, Jiang Jun was inevitably anxious, but after asking a few questions, he was interrupted by Xiao Jingchen's cold gaze and reluctantly shut his mouth.
Regarding the shareholding issue, someone from the company should have been brought in to witness it, but Xiao Jingchen didn't intend to reveal his hand so early, so he prepared a contract instead.
"This is the share purchase agreement, Uncle Jiang, please take a look."
Xiao Jingchen spoke in a calm tone, and even though the two had fallen out, he still addressed Jiang Shu as "Uncle" without changing his expression.
Jiang Jun looked at the contract, which wasn't very thick, but it felt incredibly heavy. He picked it up and glanced at it briefly, but there seemed to be no problem.
"When will Jiang Rao be able to come back?"
With trembling hands, Jiang Jun signed his name in the lower right corner of the document and pressed his fingerprint before mustering the courage to ask questions.
"Two days later, pack your things and go to the airport to wait. I will send someone to take you abroad, and Jiang Rao will be taken with you."
Having finally obtained what he had been dreaming of, even Xiao Jingchen had a faint smile on his face. He locked the documents in the safe, and when he looked up again, he found that Jiang Jun had not left yet.
He rubbed his hands together, looking somewhat uneasy.
"How is Jiang Rao doing now? Can I see her?"
Thinking of the crazy woman in the basement, Xiao Jingchen chuckled and tapped his index finger lightly on the table.
"Uncle Jiang, you know, there are some things I don't want to say a second time."
Despite the gentle tone, Jiang Jun felt a chill run down his spine, and he hurriedly nodded and left the company.
He cherished his granddaughter the most, but he never expected her to end up like this. He doesn't even know what happened to Jiang Rao now.
Jiang Jun hadn't gone far when he stopped, looked up at Xiao's building, and his cloudy eyes were filled with tears.
He had worked hard for half his life, and now his only wish was to leave safely with Jiang Rao. As long as they could leave, nothing else mattered; he only wanted his granddaughter.
Xiao Jingchen arrived at the hospital after finishing his business at the company.
Lin Ran remained unconscious. As he looked at her face, he kept recalling her smiling face at the beach a few days ago, and a bitter pain welled up in his heart.
The doctor said that the long coma was caused by a head injury and water inhalation, and there was no need to worry too much.
But seeing the once lively and cheerful person lying there sickly, how could Xiao Jingchen not worry?
The phone suddenly rang. Xiao Jingchen hurriedly pressed the mute button, glanced at Lin Ran on the bed, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that she hadn't been woken up. He then turned and left the ward.
