On the top floor of the Financial Building, Shang Shaojing couldn't help but have a dark cloud gathering between his brows after the phone was hung up.
This Jiang Li actually dared to hang up his phone?
It seems that Su Yinwan's disappearance has something to do with her!
Putting down his cell phone, he raised his hand and pressed the summons bell next to the table.
The moment the bell rang, the office door was pushed open, and a man in a suit and ties walked in.
"Is there any news?" Shang Shaojing's tone was a little cold.
The assistant lowered his head and said, "There is still no news about Miss Su, but my subordinates have found out that the last time Miss Su was seen before her disappearance was at a reception hosted by Jiang Yan, the young master of the Jiang family."
Hearing this, the sinister look on Shang Shaojing's face deepened.
One is Jiang Li and the other is Jiang Yan. What do these two brothers and sisters of the Jiang family want to do?
Perhaps thinking of something, Shang Shaojing tapped his fingertips on the table.
"If I remember correctly, today should be the engagement day between Jiang Yan and that young lady from the Qiao family, right?"
The assistant nodded, "Yes, Mr. Shang."
"Oh, in that case, let's give Master Jiang a small gift."

After changing all his clothes, Jiang Li set off back to Jiang's house.
Looking at the red-roofed villa shaded by green trees in front of her, she couldn't help feeling a little emotional for a moment.
After calming down, Jiang Li stepped forward and rang the doorbell.
After hearing the noise, a figure slowly walked out from the guard room next to him. He stared at the girl at the door for a long time before widening his eyes and saying:
"Eldest, eldest lady? Are you the eldest lady?"
At this moment, Jiang Li also recognized the person in front of her, Uncle Jiang, her father's man, but for some reason, he was now reduced to a security guard.
But she didn't ask too much, just nodded calmly, "Uncle Jiang, it's me."
Jiang Ye was even more surprised.
How does the girl in front of him look anything like what he remembers?
The shiny black hair is spread on the back of the head like silk, and the plain face is like the bright moon, so beautiful that it is a little distorted.
Especially the pair of almond eyes, which are clear and at the same time reveal a calm light that seems to have been washed away by the years, which makes people feel inexplicably at ease.
The eye-catching pink hair is gone, the heavy makeup on her face is gone, and the weird and various floral dresses are gone.
The whole person is like a rich lady from a scholarly family who walked out of TV, noble and elegant.
No, their eldest lady is originally a noble daughter.
Without having time to think too much, Jiang Ye quickly opened the door and welcomed the person in excitedly.
"Miss, you are finally home. You don't know that the past few months you have been away from home have made my wife very sad, and the young master -"
Jiang Li paused, and the image of a slovenly, carefree and dandy person suddenly appeared in his mind.
So she subconsciously asked, "What's wrong with Jiang Yan?"
Jiang Ye let out a long sigh and said, "It's a long story. You'd better go to the front office to check on the situation first."
At this time, the front hall was filled with people in three circles and three circles outside.
Mrs. Qiao, standing in the center, hugged her daughter and stared angrily at the beautiful woman in front of her.
"Mrs. Jiang, you must give us an explanation today. Jiang Yan's escape from marriage cannot be ignored. Your Jiang family cannot bully us ordinary people just because of your family's great career!"
"Yes, that's right. We, the Qiao family, are not easy to bully."
"You called us here just to make a fool of yourself, right? This matter must not go over like this!"
Seeing that the Qiao family was getting more and more excited, Mrs. Jiang's Lin Manru's face turned pale again and she hurriedly explained, "It's not about running away from the marriage. My son is not that kind of person. Don't worry, mother-in-law, this marriage is definitely planned."
"Ha, count? Then you should ask Jiang Yan to come out. You can't let my daughter be here alone and make everyone laugh, right?"
As she spoke, Mrs. Qiao quickly glanced at her daughter beside her. Qiao Shuang immediately understood and started to cry softly.
Lin Manru squeezed the wine glass in her hand anxiously, wanting to say something to comfort her future daughter-in-law, but she couldn't.
Mother Qin on the side saw this and quickly pulled her aside.
"Madam, this can't go on like this. You have to find a way to appease the Qiao family. You can't let these people watch the joke and ruin the Jiang family's reputation later."
Lin Manru nodded in agreement, then walked to Mrs. Qiao, her voice softened and softened, "My mother-in-law, it is true that I did not think carefully about this matter today. We can compensate you for your losses, and please do not leak this matter to the outside world.
To prevent the two families from getting into trouble in the end."
Mrs. Qiao snorted, "Compensation? Of course you have to compensate. My daughter has suffered such great injustice. Isn't it too much to ask for 5% of the shares of your Jiang Group?"
Lin Manru's face turned pale. She didn't expect that Mrs. Qiao would be so open-minded, clamoring for shares as soon as she came up.
But in the end, they did something wrong. She shouldn't have announced to the public that Jiang Qiao's family's engagement banquet would be held as scheduled when Jiang Yan was missing.
But Qiao Shuang is also the future daughter-in-law of the Jiang family, so what does her 5% share mean?
Gritting her teeth, Lin Manru was about to say yes when suddenly a clear female voice came from outside the door——
"No, I don't agree with the stock split."
Everyone looked around and saw that the originally closed door had been pushed open at some point, and a graceful girl was standing there against the light.
She was not tall, and was even a little thin, but she exuded an inexplicably powerful aura around her, which instantly silenced the noisy hall.
After being stunned for a moment, Lin Manru walked forward in surprise and joy, "Li Li? Is it you? Why are you back?!"
It's not that Lin Manru doesn't recognize her, it's that the girl in front of her has changed so much that she doesn't dare to recognize her.
No one around her recognized the girl's identity, especially Mrs. Qiao. After being interrupted by Wu Gu, she directed all her anger at this yellow-haired girl.
"Who are you? Why is a child interrupting when an adult is talking?"
"This is a matter between Mrs. Jiang and I. Why don't you say we won't divide the shares if you don't agree?"
There was a cold light in Jiang Li's eyes. He did not become emotional because of Mrs. Qiao's roar, but looked at the person from beginning to end indifferently.
For some reason, Mrs. Qiao's back suddenly felt cold when she was looked at with such eyes, but thinking that she was an elder after all, she immediately calmed down again.
"What are you asking? Why is this girl so rude?"
Jiang Li's voice was indifferent, "Who are you? Why do I have to answer your questions when you ask me?"
If you come up and talk nonsense without announcing your family name, this kind of person will be beaten out of the marquis' mansion with sticks.
That is to say, her modern mother's temperament is too soft, so she was completely manipulated.
Perhaps she felt that her daughter was too abnormal, so Lin Manru, who had recovered, quickly said, "Li Li, this is your brother's future mother-in-law, not someone else. You have to be polite."
Jiang Li's expression didn't change, "If you don't have Najib, don't invite someone, or don't have a wedding in the third week, what kind of in-laws do you think you are? In my opinion, mother should drive out this stranger who is causing trouble."
