"What happened?"

The TV was on and the evening news was playing.

Jiang Chen held his mobile phone, and the chat box displayed Pei Yunxi's profile picture.

Given the special relationship between Shi Zhenhua and Pei Yunxi, I wonder how she would feel if she knew about this accident.

Like it?

Still feeling sad?

"There was something wrong with the paper, and my supervisor asked me to come back and deal with it. It's okay."

Jiang Chen typed out a text and sent it.

He knew that Pei Yunxi was not a talkative person, but he could not publicize such things to the outside world.

The display over there was typing, and then returned to normal. Before Jiang Chen could wait for the other party to reply, the doorbell rang.

Jiang Chen turned his head and looked at the door.

"Ding dong, ding dong, ding dong..."

It should be Shi Xixi.

He put his cell phone in his pocket, stood up, walked over and opened the door, but the person outside the door caught him by surprise.

"...Aunt Meng."

"Is it convenient to chat?"

Jiang Chen subconsciously looked around, but Shi Qianqian was nowhere to be seen.

"Please come in."

He quickly turned sideways and politely gave up his position.

Meng Meiling walked into the room.

Jiang Chen closed the door.

Although the first meeting was not very friendly, it is undeniable that this is a very strong and sensible woman.

Mount Tai collapsed before it but did not change color.

This is the true wealthy lady.

It's not something that actors on TV can perform.

Meng Meiling, who showed no sign of weakness, sat down on the sofa and looked at the TV.

Jiang Chen walked over, picked up the remote control on the coffee table, and turned off the TV.

"Although we haven't met many times, I think we are not strangers anymore, so I won't say it to be polite.

Meng Meiling spoke.

Jiang Chen nodded, "Aunt Meng, just say what you want."

Meng Meiling is indeed an extraordinary person. One leg is elegantly placed on the other leg, "I want to talk to you about Sissi."

Jiang Chen didn't speak in a hurry, looking at the woman who looked more like sisters than mother and daughter to Shi Qianqian, he made a gesture as if he was willing to hear the details.

"The Exotic Land Development of Vegetable-Growing Skeletons"

"You are a smart person. I shouldn't need to explain some things. I think Sissi has told you everything. Her father doesn't know when he will wake up. In this situation, I have to prepare for the worst."

"Aunt Meng wants Miss Shi to temporarily take over Director Shi's position?"

Jiang Chen, who could have remained silent, took the initiative to speak.

One sentence, three titles.

Meng Meiling's tone was condensed, and she looked at this young man with a somewhat strange look, as well as a trace of undisguised admiration.

"Sissi told me that there is no need for you to call me Miss Shi."

Jiang Chen was speechless.

What did the aunt say to her mother?

"You're right. You can hide it for a while, but you can't hide it forever. Before the news is exposed, a new manager must be introduced to stabilize the situation. This candidate must be Sissi."

Meng Meiling speaks out.

This is the highest level secret of Jin Hai. Logically speaking, the former mistress of Jin Hai should not tell it to an outsider like him.

"Aunt Meng, there is something I don't know whether to say or not."

"Xiao Jiang, we may have had some misunderstandings before, but now you should understand that when I tell you this, I don't treat you as an outsider."

Jiang Chen nodded, "Well, Aunt Meng, I'll be honest. I personally think that Shi Xiao...Qianqian may not be able to bear such a heavy burden now."

Meng Meiling said without changing her expression, "Do you think she is not capable enough?"

"She's still too young, and I'm afraid she's not mentally prepared to take over Jin Hai. I'm worried she won't be able to bear it."

Meng Meiling looked at him silently for a while.

Jiang Chen didn't try to guess what the other person was thinking. Based on his experience, he probably didn't have the ability to guess the inner world of a character like Meng Meiling, so he just stated his personal thoughts very frankly.

"Aunt Meng, it is urgent to elect a new person in power and stabilize people's hearts, but Sissi is not the most suitable candidate. I think the most suitable candidate should be Aunt Meng yourself."

"I?"

Jiang Chen nodded.

"Whether it's in terms of status or prestige, you are well-deserved. You can also give Sissy some more time to adapt."

"You really feel sorry for her."

Meng Meiling said softly, it was only then that her temperament seemed to really soften.

"You are right, but there is one thing. After all, my surname is Meng, not Shi."

Jiang Chen fell silent.

The other party was truly open and honest.

He actually said such things.

He didn't understand the internal structure of Jinhai, but thinking about it, he knew how could such a large business empire be so free from factional struggles for power and profit.

When Meng Meiling comes to power, regardless of whether she personally wants it or not, the forces led by Meng will definitely take advantage of the situation and rise. This is inevitable.

Unless she is willing to break with her family.

But is this possible?

She is not Shi Zhenhua. If she wants to stabilize Jinhai, she needs to rely on the "Meng family" like Meng Jiye.

So this is simply an unsolvable problem.

"The sea of ​​gold belongs to Sissi. No one can change this, and no one can change it. Therefore, this position must be taken by Sissi, whether she wants it or not."

Whether it is a father or a mother, they are equally doting on that aunt.

Jiang Chen sighed secretly, and at the same time, he was inevitably a little moved.

Sitting not far from him at this time was a pure mother.

"Aunt Meng talked to her? Did she disagree?"

Meng Meiling nodded, "That's why I came to you. I hope you can help me persuade her."

Jiang Chen was silent, he really didn't expect that the other party was looking for him for this purpose.

"Xiao Jiang, that girl may listen to you the most now. If you persuade her, she will definitely agree."

Jiang Chen was silent for a while, hesitating to speak, and finally gave a wry smile.

"Aunt Meng, I'm really in a dilemma."

"I see."

That position seemed glorious and prestigious, but at the same time it was also in dire straits.

If the aunt takes the initiative to sit on it, that's fine. It has nothing to do with her and she won't have any baggage. But if he pushes her up, that's different.

"Xiao Jiang, although her father has fallen, I, the mother, am still here. I won't let anyone bully her. It's just that she has to shoulder some responsibilities."

"Aunt Meng, can't there be someone else?"

Meng Meiling shook her head without thinking.

"No one can speak more effectively than you now, not even my mother."

"Aunt Meng..."

Jiang Chen seems to have something unspeakable to hide.

"I know what you are worried about. You can rest assured that I will no longer interfere in the affairs between you young people, but there is one thing I hope you can promise me."

Jiang Chen was caught off guard and subconsciously replied: "What's the matter?"
