"You want to drop out of school?" Ye Nan's eyes widened in surprise.
"Shall we find a place to chat? I'm worried that Deng Lin and the others will see me here." Jiang Lingxue carefully pressed the brim of her hat.
"good."
The two found a restaurant, chose a remote location to sit down, and ordered some food. Only then did Jiang Lingxue take off her beach hat.
"After my father had an accident last time, he sent me back to the capital."
"I know that." Before leaving last time, Jiang Lingxue chatted with Ye Nan on WeChat. In addition to expressing her gratitude to him, she also said goodbye.
"After I left, my father carried out a large-scale purge of the forces belonging to the Jiang family in Zhonghai. The reason why something happened last time was because a traitor appeared in the family, Jiang Ming."
Ye Nan couldn't help but nodded after hearing this. He had told Jiang Wenyao about Jiang Ming before.
"Jiang Ming is a distant relative of our family. He is said to be a relative, but in fact he is basically not related by blood. He is from my father's hometown village."
"He joined our family in his early years, but because he had no education, he never joined the group. However, due to human kindness, and because my father thought this person was reliable, he was asked to take on part of the security work."
"After I had an accident last time, my father transferred him to Zhonghai and led several groups of people to protect my safety."
"But I didn't expect that he would be the one to betray my father's whereabouts in the end. Although his family was also being held hostage... but betrayal is still betrayal after all."
Jiang Lingxue sighed softly when she said this. She had always had a good impression of Jiang Ming. In fact, the Jiang family treated Jiang Ming very well. It would be a lie to say they didn't hate him.
"So you are worried that there are still..." Ye Nan suddenly realized.
"Yes, my father is worried that there are hidden dangers within the family. Moreover, the forces in Zhonghai have been complicated and fighting has been going on for the past month. He asked me to return to the capital to protect me in disguise." Jiang Lingxue explained.
Ye Nan nodded. In the past month or so, there have been constant earthquakes in Zhonghai. Two high-level officials were sacked for accepting bribes. Two local groups suffered a huge blow. The boss of one of the groups was arrested for allegedly stealing state funds and suspected of economic crimes.
Go in, last time Ye Nan heard Lao Ye talk about it, with a guarantee of twenty years, he would be in prison for a long time.
And if you pay a little more attention to these things, it is not difficult to find that they all have a certain relationship with Jiang Wenyao.
And this was also the result of the struggle between the two forces. If Jiang Wenyao was killed that night, it was likely that the Jiang family would be purged later.
This kind of thing is so normal and was common in Ye Nan's previous life.
Jiang Wenyao, suffering from the pain of his severed finger, sent his wife and daughter back to the capital for protection, and then made a big fuss in Zhonghai without risking his life, which almost made Zhonghai's senior officials miserable. It was only recently that it gradually calmed down.
Because of what happened before, no one dares to stroke Jiang Wenyao's tiger beard. Everyone knows that this tiger has a reason to go crazy now, so it's okay to let him go crazy for a while. If someone really messes with him at this time, no matter what
He will also bite off a piece of meat.
In addition, Ye Nan has also noticed recently that there are actually some things happening in the capital, which have not caused much waves, but there is also Jiang Wenyao's shadow behind these things.
The last kidnapping was not just caused by the local forces in Zhonghai. Jiang Wenyao's base was in the capital, and there were also many enemies in the capital who were involved. Naturally, Jiang Wenyao would not swallow his anger.
All in all, after all this hard work, the Jiang family's position in China Shipping has been established. At least recently, Jiang Wenyao has been frequently on the headlines of China Shipping, and the overall media trend is also moving closer to Jiang Wenyao.
Therefore, if Jiang Lingxue returned to Zhonghai under such circumstances, she would not be in danger again.
"Then why did you drop out of school?" Ye Nan asked again.
"After what happened last time, my father began to let me gradually take over some things in the family," Jiang Lingxue looked calm on her face, picked up the kuaizi and gently picked up a piece of meat and put it into Yin Hong's mouth.
"I also realized that a family cannot place all the burdens on one person's shoulders. Otherwise, that person will be too tired and too dangerous."
"So I will be quite busy these days, and the school can't keep suspending school endlessly. I might as well drop out of school. My academic qualifications are actually of no use to me anyway..." Jiang Lingxue smiled helplessly.
However, Ye Nan clearly saw a trace of reluctance in her eyes.
With Jiang Lingxue's character, she was willing to dress up and study in school before, so she must really like this kind of life.
Moreover, during the last visit to Tan Ming Canyon, Ye Nan could tell that Jiang Lingxue also liked several of her roommates very much.
Such pure friendship can never be found in the officialdom and workplace!
The former Jiang Lingxue was actually not enthusiastic about taking over the family. Although she had not talked to Ye Nanshen, she could naturally tell this with Ye Nan's eyesight.
This time, whether intentionally or forced, Jiang Lingxue began to take over the family business. This may be a good thing for the Jiang family, but it may not be a good thing for Jiang Lingxue.
This means that Jiang Lingxue will have to carry the Jiang family's 10,000-ton ship on the shoulders of a weak woman!
Ye Nan noticed that the circles under her eyes were slightly smoked, and she seemed to be a little tired. It must have been that the past month and a half was not as easy for Jiang Lingxue as she said.
You can imagine how difficult it is to use a woman's body to influence a big family!
Jiang Lingxue was smart, so she naturally read something from Ye Nan's eyes, and smiled casually,
"Okay, I'm fine. In fact, this is my responsibility. My mother is not in good health, so they only have me as their child. If I don't share the burden for them, there will be no one else."
"But you're just a girl..." Ye Nan sighed, "Is this kind of responsibility really that important?"
"Ye Nan, you don't understand," Jiang Lingxue sighed softly, "The Jiang family has reached its current position. It can move forward, but it is absolutely impossible to retreat. If you open a milk tea shop tomorrow, whether you lose money or make enough money,
You can withdraw from the store even if you have money, but not the Jiang family."
"If an emperor is tired of the life of indulgence, luxury, depravity, and intrigue tomorrow and wants to abdicate and become a carefree rich man, do you know what the final result will be?"
"I know..." Ye Nan also sighed, "The final result is that he will be killed because there are too many people who don't want him to live."
There was a trace of appreciation in Jiang Lingxue's eyes, "Yes, although it is not appropriate to describe the Jiang family as emperor, it is the fact that the Jiang family has reached the point where it is today and has made too many enemies. If we can't sail this big ship of the Jiang family to the end,
, then we can only sink to the bottom of the sea with it, and no bones will be left!"
