The Mad Heiress Played Innocent, and the Third Master Fell Hard - Chapter 37

He leaned back lazily in his chair, raising an eyebrow. “You guys carry on, why are you watching me?”

Jiang Yaoan sat to his left, glancing at him sideways.

“Third brother has no objections?”

Jiang Yuhuai remained calm. “What objections could I possibly have? Isn’t this the result of the shareholders’ vote?”

Jiang Yaoan narrowed his eyes, as if trying to guess what he was thinking.

But who can truly see through what Jiang Yuhuai is thinking?

“Is there anything else you’d like to say?”

Jiang Yuhuai glanced at everyone in the audience.

Seeing that they were all silent, he stood up, buttoned up his suit jacket, and said, “Then the meeting is adjourned.”

Jiang Yuhuai opened the conference room door and strode out.

Jiang Dong quickly followed.

Jiang Yaoan remained seated, lost in thought as he watched the man’s departing figure.

He rested his elbows on the table, his fingertips lightly touching his lips, his eyes deep and unfathomable, lost in thought.

One by one, the shareholders left.

Only Jiang Yaoan and his confidants remained in the conference room.

The confidant asked in a low voice, “Second Young Master, you’ve changed your plans at the last minute. Are you planning to force Jiang Yuhuai to relinquish the CEO position during the board meeting?”

“Do you think I should force him to give up this position?” Jiang Yaoan asked, his expression unreadable.

“this……”

His confidants couldn’t immediately guess what he was thinking.

Jiang Yaoan suddenly stood up. “With Jiang Yuhuai’s ability to increase the market value of Jiang’s Group several times over, those old fogies on the board of directors won’t let him leave so easily.”

Who would turn down money?

“Then you don’t want to be the president of Jiang’s Group?”

Jiang Yaoan chuckled, “How could I not want to? He’s just an illegitimate child; sooner or later he’ll have to get out of this position.”

The confidant lowered his head, not daring to say a word.

…

Jiang Yuhuai walked into the office, sat down in the office chair, and casually flipped through the documents piled up to one side.

What happened to Danwon?

During the meeting, he had already noticed Jiang Dong distracted by his phone in the back.

Jiang Dong lowered his head. “A message came from Jiangxi saying that a guest has arrived at Tanyuan.”

Jiang Yuhuai hummed in agreement, without looking up, “And then?”

He held the custom-made fountain pen, his strokes powerful and vigorous, and in just a few seconds, a name appeared on the paper.

Jiang Dong paused for a moment, then said, “It was a female customer.”

Jiang Yuhuai paused in his signing and looked up.

“Wanwan’s friend?”

Jiang Dong was quite conflicted, “It seems to belong to Mr. Wang.”

Jiang Yuhuai: “…”

Jiang Dong added, “That female guest is Wen Ni, the president of Chenyan.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuhuai put down his pen, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, “You’re saying that Wang Shengye’s friend is Wen Ni, the president of Chenyan?”

Jiang Dong: “…Yes.”

Jiang Yuhuai remained silent.

After a long pause, he finally spoke, “Have you received a reply from Chenyan regarding the incense we contacted before that they customized?”

Not only do perfumes made from agarwood have a unique fragrance, but some also have a sleep-inducing effect.

Unfortunately, these effective perfumes are produced in very small quantities.

Moreover, it is not sold to the public.

This perfume is rarely seen even at auctions.

It can be said that it has a price but no market.

Jiang Yuhuai knew that Yu Guiwan had trouble sleeping. All the scented candles and essential oils in Tanyuan were made by foreign perfumers at great expense.

To achieve a noticeable effect, the dosage needs to be increased.

Lu Yichen has already said that her body is severely depleted and she absolutely cannot risk the effects of the medicine.

Therefore, he could only pin his hopes on Chen Yan.

Perhaps the chief perfumer named Blank can create a fragrance that will allow her to sleep peacefully through the night.

Jiang Dong lowered his head. “It’s my fault for being useless. Chenyan rejected our order.”

Jiang Yuhuai frowned. “You mean Shen Yan refused?”

“Yes.”

“Is it because you’re not satisfied with the price? Or…”

Jiang Dong thought for a moment and said, “Chenyan’s reply is that Blank doesn’t have time to take orders right now. I also heard that the orders Chenyan took for Blank haven’t been finished yet.”

If it were any other brand, those customers would have already turned sour.

Why would anyone willingly continue waiting?

Only blank space has this ability and charm.

Jiang Yuhuai pinched the bridge of his nose. “Continue to contact Chen Yan’s side. Let them raise the price as they see fit.”

Jiang Dong nodded, “Yes.”

…

evening.

The sound of a car could be heard outside the villa.

The butler went out. “Young Master.”

Jiang Yuhuai got out of the car, grunted, and stepped inside. “Where is she?”

The butler hadn’t had a chance to answer.

As soon as Jiang Yuhuai entered the villa, he saw the girl lying on the sofa.

He suddenly stopped and walked over quietly.

Yu Guiwan fell asleep leaning against the armrest of the sofa, with a cushion underneath her.

A tablet was on the coffee table, still playing music.

The clichéd dialogue echoing in the living room now had a surprisingly hypnotic effect.

The man’s expression softened slightly.

He had barely gotten close to her before he had a chance to do anything.

Yu Guiwan suddenly opened her eyes.

Jiang Yuhuai’s outstretched arm to hug her froze in mid-air.

The two stared at each other for a few seconds.

Yu Guiwan yawned lazily, “You’re back?”

Jiang Yuhuai hummed in agreement, withdrew his hand, glanced at the coffee table, reached out and tapped pause, exited the software, and turned off the screen.

“Did you just fall asleep?”

Yu Guiwan grabbed a cushion and hugged it to her chest, lazily propping her chin up with her hand, and mumbled, “No.”

She doesn’t fall asleep so easily.

I just closed my eyes to rest because my eyes were tired from watching TV for too long.

She never expected him to think she was asleep.

Upon hearing her answer, his eyes darkened.

Then he changed the subject, “I heard you had guests at home today?”

Yu Guiwan paused, picked up the cup on the table, took a sip of water, and then slowly replied, “Yes, he’s Xiao Ye’s friend.”

“How does Ono know Shenyan’s CEO?”

How would I know how he met them?

She rested her chin on her hand as she looked at him. “You’re very interested in that beautiful female CEO?”

Jiang Yuhuai remained calm, his gaze falling on her pale face.

“I’m only interested in you.”

Yu Guiwan: “…”

It’s not fun at all.

She looked away listlessly and drank her water absentmindedly.

Jiang Yuhuai added, “I just wanted to buy something from her.”

Yu Guiwan paused, then turned her gaze to the side, “Don’t you not wear perfume?”

He always carried the scent of sandalwood.

The scent isn’t strong, but it smells very nice.

A smile appeared in Jiang Yuhuai’s eyes. “So Wanwan pays so much attention to me that she even knows I don’t wear perfume.”

Yu Guiwan: “…”

Sometimes she really wanted him to shut up.

Jiang Yuhuai couldn’t help but rub her head. “Chenyan’s perfume has a calming effect.”

This also explains why he wanted to buy things from Wen Ni.

Yu Guiwan looked at him strangely, “You’re not thinking of buying this perfume for me, are you?”

“Hmm, is that not allowed?”

“…”
