Top beauties: Beijing bigwigs gathered at Shura Field

Chapter 112 Telegram & Request for Help

In the evening, Shaw Group Building.

As the afterglow and the crescent moon blend together, the scenery outside the floor-to-ceiling windows is rich in color, but the atmosphere inside the huge chairman's office is serious and deserted.

After Jiang Yan reported the important progress of various departments in recent days, he handed the document to be signed by the chairman himself to the man at the desk for approval, but did not leave immediately.

When Shao Ting raised his eyes, he saw his hesitant expression and his brows furrowed slightly.

"If you have anything to say, just say it."

The man's deep and sharp voice hit his eardrums. Jiang Yan immediately tensed his shoulders and said briefly, "Sir, I want to confirm with you whether Miss Jiang will come tomorrow. Do you need to make any preparations?"

It took him a whole day to digest what Shao Ting had said last night about asking Jiang Wan to come to the group building, but in the end he still couldn't understand what the man meant.

Jiang Yan really couldn't tell whether it was just to ask Miss Jiang to come, or to keep her by his side, or to arrange a position in some department for her to learn.

If it were in the past, he might have simply regarded it as a visit to the group, but after these two days, Jiang Yan could almost conclude that the man should have more than just this plan.

Otherwise, what was the point of having Jiang Wan come here? Was it just to see and see?

Shao Ting never does such meaningless things, nor does he let others do them.

It is very likely that I will have to keep it by my side.

But if this is the case, the relevant departments must of course make different preparations based on Jiang Wan's specific identity here, so this still needs to be clarified.

Jiang Yan has been with Shao Ting for several years, and it is rare for him to have such a hard time guessing a man's thoughts.

Shao Tingze frowned imperceptibly, and after a moment's silence, just as he was about to speak, the cell phone on the table suddenly vibrated.

He half-closed his eyelashes and directly clicked on the pop-up message window.

[Jiang Wan: Mr. Shao, I'm sorry, I probably won't be able to come to Shaw Group tomorrow.]

Shao Ting stared at the line of words for a few seconds before he suddenly pulled his lower lip and turned off the phone. His tone was so cold that Jiang Yan, who had no idea what was going on, broke out in a cold sweat.

"No need to prepare, she won't come."

Jiang Yan almost thought he had heard it wrong.

Miss Jiang actually dared to stand up Shao Ting?

But even though he was full of questions, Jiang Yan didn't have the courage to ask any more questions at this time.

He tried his best to control his expression, said okay politely, and turned to leave the office.

But at this moment the man suddenly opened his lips and said, "Wait."

Jiang Yan quickly stopped and the next moment he saw his husband... picking up the phone again.

His eyebrows jumped, and he didn't dare to look at it any longer. He lowered his head and waited for instructions again.

In fact, Shao Ting was originally really disappointed and planned not to give her any more chances, but soon his mind uncontrollably flashed through the girl's clear and excited eyes when she heard the news last night.

The surprise in those eyes didn't seem fake, and the tone he used whenever he mentioned that he wanted to work for Shaw Brothers in the future didn't seem fake either.

What kind of thing is so important that it can make her change her mind directly...

He opened his phone again and glanced at the sentence, and a slight ripple finally flashed across his dark eyes.

This girl has a very fragile personality to begin with. She felt upset and aggrieved twice in a row because of his words. If he never gives her another chance, she doesn't know what will happen to her.

That's it.

Shao Ting finally clicked the enter key and replied with a message.

[What do you mean by should? Please make it clear. ]

Not long after this message was sent, Jiang Wan called directly.

Shao Ting paused, then pressed the answer button.

Soon, the girl's familiar soft and lingering voice came from the other end.

"Mr. Shao."

She called him softly, and her tone somehow seemed to be endearing.

Shao Ting hummed softly and did not respond.

Of course Jiang Wan knew he was in the wrong, so his voice became even softer.

"I have my reasons, please don't be mad at me, okay?"

Her tone was a little muffled, and it lingered directly in her ear through the phone, but it made her sound a little aggrieved and innocent.

The cold aura around Shao Ting had dissipated a little, but his tone seemed indifferent.

"what reason?"

This time there was silence on the other end.

I don't know how long it was before I finally heard the girl's faint voice mixed with trembling.

"I did tell you that I probably can't come because something unexpected happened to me and it's very likely that I won't be able to resolve it tomorrow."

Having said this she suddenly paused for a few seconds, and when she spoke again her voice was so low that it was almost inaudible.

"I'm busy now, please forgive me."

"Dudu..."

She hung up the phone.

Shao Ting was silent for two seconds, and when he opened his mouth again, his eyes were already extremely dark.

"Check where Jiang Wan is now. I want the exact location."

Before the phone was hung up, a man's low growl was clearly heard from the other end, angry and harsh.

Even if I didn't hear clearly what was said, it was enough to judge that Jiang Wan was in a bad situation at the moment.

Shao Ting never believed in so-called coincidences.

This call was either intentional or planned.

Or, it's a call for help.

*

Jiang Wan certainly knew that this phone call would definitely arouse Shao Ting's suspicion afterwards, but she was betting on a man's suspicion.

What she didn't want was for Shao Ting to think that she called him unintentionally and by chance.

She just told him plainly that she was in trouble.

And just as she expected, Mu Lin was talking about the fifth floor, but in fact he had been waiting on the first floor for a long time.

The exterior of this so-called notorious unfinished building has long been dilapidated, with walls covered with cracks, some of which have even fallen off, revealing the steel bars and concrete inside. The surroundings are becoming increasingly dark, and a desolate atmosphere is everywhere.

Walking into this building is already Jiang Wan's limit.

The man with the horrible scar covering almost half of his face was standing not far away, staring at her with a gloomy face and extremely cold eyes.

"Jiang Wan, answer me, who were you calling just now?"

"Was it the two men during the day, or did you call the police?"

His chest heaved violently and his voice was hoarse and almost piercing.

Seeing that Jiang Wan was just looking at him quietly without saying anything, he suddenly sneered again.

"Do you think I'm scared? I haven't done anything to you yet. You came here voluntarily. Even if I really go in, I will still keep an eye on you after I come out."

"Jiang Wan, don't ever think of getting rid of me in your life."

What he said almost sent chills down one's spine.

However, Jiang Wan raised a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his lips.

"So, why did you want me to come see you? To listen to your crazy talk?"

Mu Lin's eyes grew darker as he listened, but the angrier he got, the more silent he became.

Jiang Wan is still the same, weak, vulnerable, gentle and kind in front of everyone.

This was the case in front of the two men last night, and in front of the two men during the day. But to him, she always spoke coldly and wanted to stay away from him.

But he just became more and more obsessed with her like a masochist, and even during those years in prison, his mind was still full of her.
