Chapter 294 - 294 Two Choices
294 Two Choices
Wu Rong stared straight at Jiang Tong. Suddenly, she picked up her wine glass, raised her head, and finished the entire glass of wine. Then, she slammed the glass on the coffee table. She stared at Jiang Tong and asked her a question that many people had asked before, “Who are you?”
Wu Rong wasn’t a woman who would be on her guard just because she didn’t understand something. However, it was a different matter if something she didn’t understand was on the level of metaphysics. Once it was on the level of metaphysics, her guard would be meaningless!
“Who am I? Didn’t you check, Director Wu?” Jiang Tong asked Wu Rong with a smile. Wu Rong stared at Jiang Tong. The smile on her face had completely disappeared. She was not in the mood to pretend at all. She just couldn’t figure it out! Of course, she knew who Jiang Tong was and what her family background was. Wu Rong didn’t need to distinguish the truth from the lies, because after thinking about it carefully, she realized that no matter what Jiang Tong’s identity was, even if she had a powerful background, Jiang Tong couldn’t possibly know what she had just said! Jiang Tong even knew what Wu Rong had been thinking. How could Jiang Tong even know what she was thinking? Was Jiang Tong a fortune-teller? This was very metaphysical!
Wu Rong thought about it again. Jiang Tong had mentioned Shao Ying and Dong Yuan before. They had almost finished talking about this matter, but Jiang Tong had not said how she knew about it! Wu Rong had guessed that Jiang Tong had bribed someone in the Shao family, such as one of Shao Ying’s trusted aides, so Jiang Tong knew about it. But now, the more Wu Rong thought about it, the more she felt that the way Jiang Tong knew about it was beyond her imagination! Wu Rong took a deep breath and sat down slowly.
“Miss Jiang, you seem to know a lot.” Wu Rong revealed her usual gentle smile to Jiang Tong. She asked, “Then can you tell me what else you know about me?”
“A lot, which aspect are you referring to?” Jiang Tong asked with a smile.
“For example…” Wu Rong paused for a while and then continued with a smile, “Something that’s enough to send me to prison.” None of the businesses that had reached Wu Rong’s level were clean. This was the truth! Wu Rong was a vicious woman who hid daggers behind her smile. She had done too many things that could send her to prison! Jiang Tong had already mentioned the Dongfeng Fund. Wu Rong wanted to know what else Jiang Tong knew.
“Something that can send you to prison?” Jiang Tong’s smile was a little strange. Then, she said, “There are too many things. When you were dealing with the Song family, you stole their latest fashion design. Besides, the Song family had a few investors before they went bankrupt, but they didn’t dare to invest in them because of your tricks… and your competitors who were sent to prison all these years, some of them were caught by you, but some were set up by you, such as Zhao Nan, Jin Jun, Fan Lin…” Jiang Tong simply mentioned a few names. Then, she added with a smile, “By the way, you worked with Liu Tao three years ago and did a great job, but I think it’s better to do less of such things as manipulating stock prices. It’s too easy to get caught.”
Wu Rong still had a smile on her face, but it was a bit stiff. Her heart was already in a state of shock. Jiang Tong seemed to know everything! She seemed to unreasonably and illogically know everything! This was impossible! But Jiang Tong knew!
Wu Rong looked at Jiang Tong who was swirling the wine glass. Wu Rong was silent for a long time. Her expression gradually changed. First, she calmed down and her smile became natural. Then she looked at Jiang Tong with a very subtle expression. The reason why she asked Jiang Tong about ‘something that could send her to prison’ was to know if Jiang Tong had the ability to send her directly to prison, or to turn her into a state beyond redemption. Now she had gotten the answer. Jiang Tong could.
At this moment, Jiang Tong was extremely mysterious in Wu Rong’s heart. She had already been classified as a ‘strange person’! Therefore, for Wu Rong, there were only two choices left. One was to kill Jiang Tong, the person who would make her unable to sleep and eat in peace! Or pull Jiang Tong into her camp, or become one of Jiang Tong’s people! Develop an intimate relationship with Jiang Tong and make use of Jiang Tong’s abilities!
“Miss Jiang, let’s talk about the Shao family.” Wu Rong spoke again, but she changed the topic. She still wanted to know more information. She wanted to see if Jiang Tong really had some metaphysics ability to know everything and to be omnipotent.
Jiang Tong continued to talk. She mentioned Dong Yaozu’s opponent, the Dou family, and Qu Beiming’s weakness that she had told Zhou Anguo. She also talked about the pros and cons of the matter, but it was still in a very roundabout manner. She talked for more than half an hour.
