Chapter 1286: Ineffective Threats
“Especially your little a.s.sistant. It’s so funny. I only need a phone call to confirm whether her words are true or not, and she still wants to lie to me.”
“Xiao, you need to hire more beautiful and capable a.s.sistants, so they won’t use such tricks again.”
Jiang Li thought that she was worthy of the envy of smart people to use more sophisticated methods to deal with her.
Fu Jiuxiao did not know whether to laugh or cry as he pinched Jiang Li’s chin, forcing Jiang Li to look into his eyes. “Do you know what you’re talking about?”
“Yes, of course, I do.” Jiang Li nodded vigorously and said with a smile.
Fu Jiuxiao gently tapped Jiang Li’s forehead, bent down, and gently kissed her.
Jiang Li opened her arms and hugged Fu Jiuxiao. At the same time, she heard that Fu Ruofei came to the Fu Corporation to see Fu Jiuxiao.
Fu Ruofei came?
It must be for Meng Zhi.
Jiang Li thought that she had guessed Fu Ruofei’s thoughts. She sat up from Fu Jiuxiao’s arms, tidied up her clothes, and sat on the chair next to her.
Fu Jiuxiao returned to his usual cold and aloof self, and he invited Fu Ruofei to his office expressionlessly.
“If he asks us to help save him, don’t say anything,” Fu Jiuxiao said to Jiang Li.
Jiang Li shrugged her shoulders indifferently. “She hasn’t done anything to hurt me. Maybe we can let her go for now.”
Just like how she dealt with Fu Yunze.
If Meng Zhi wanted to find trouble with her again, she might have to resort to more ruthless means.
“That won’t do either,” Fu Jiuxiao said.
Jiang Li did not answer. She just looked at the office door and stared at Fu Ruofei who pushed the door open and walked in.
What would Fu Ruofei say?
Jiang Li could not imagine what kind of att.i.tude Fu Ruofei, who kept a low profile in the Fu family, would use against Fu Jiuxiao.
She was not afraid that Fu Jiuxiao would make things difficult for her, so she wanted to let Meng Zhi go. It was because after Meng Zhi’s plot was exposed, she did not cause any real harm.
If Meng Zhi was smart enough to copy Jiang Man’s way of acting to be pity and buying trending searches, she could temporarily get out of trouble.
Jiang Li’s thoughts were temporarily put away as Fu Ruofei appeared.
The moment Fu Ruofei saw Jiang Li, his expression twisted for a moment, but he quickly calmed down.
He was not Meng Zhi.
He would not blame everything that Fu Yunze did on Jiang Li. Instead, he would blame Fu Jiuxiao for leaving Fu Yunze to die.
After Fu Ruofei sat in front of Fu Jiuxiao, he first mentioned Fu Yunze and then Old Master Fu’s att.i.tude.
He talked for a long time, but he did not mention any important people, which made Jiang Li confused.
Fu Ruofei should plead on Meng Zhi’s behalf, right?
Why did he keep talking about other people’s affairs?
“If you have something to say, just say it.” Fu Jiuxiao’s voice was cold, and it carried a sense of impolite pressure. Fu Ruofei had to put away those useless words.
Fu Ruofei took a deep breath and said seriously, “Zhongtian and I are not having a good time. My wife has made mistakes, and my son is missing. I am especially helpless.”
He covered his face with both hands, and there was a strong sense of powerlessness.
Jiang Li, on the other hand, was a little emotional.
Fu Ruofei and Fu Zhongtian had played all the good cards in their hands to a pulp.
Fu Jiuxiao did not forbid them from working in the Fu Corporation. On the contrary, he arranged very good jobs for Fu Yusheng and Fu Yunze, but what happened in the end?
These two Young Masters were making trouble every day, and they had to make themselves look bad. Who could they blame?
“Your sister-in-law is stupid this time, but think about how hard it has been for me for so many years. I...” Fu Ruofei stammered, unable to speak.
He did not even dare to look into Fu Jiuxiao’s eyes.
Jiang Li clearly felt that something was wrong with Fu Ruofei. After looking into Fu Jiuxiao’s eyes, she asked softly, “The person that sister-in-law hurt is me. If I don’t agree to let her go, what can Xiao do?”
Her words were sharp.
Fu Ruofei seemed to be provoked and said, “They are right. You are a cold-blooded and heartless person. If you don’t think of a way to save my wife, I will transfer the a.s.sets of the foreign branch and make you lose...”
“You think you can transfer the a.s.sets of the company?” Fu Jiuxiao asked sarcastically.
Jiang Li had another question, and she blurted out, “Who taught you that?”
Eh?
They actually had different thoughts?
Of course, they were different.
Fu Jiuxiao had absolute control over all the a.s.sets of the Fu Corporation, both domestic and foreign. Not to mention the company’s a.s.sets abroad, Fu Jiuxiao would review any project that Fu Ruofei wanted to take away.
Fu Ruofei overestimated himself.
Jiang Li’s thoughts were completely different.
She did not know Fu Ruofei very well, but she knew that Fu Ruofei was a short-sighted person. He would not sacrifice all his a.s.sets just to save Fu Yunze and Meng Zhi.
There might be other stories behind this.
Fu Ruofei looked at Jiang Li fiercely. His face became very pale, and he felt helpless after being exposed.
His performance explained everything.
Jiang Li had guessed correctly.
She leaned back in her chair and listened to Fu Jiuxiao’s cold rejection of Fu Ruofei’s proposal. She would also discuss with Old Master Fu to take back all the administrative rights of Fu Ruofei’s branch abroad.
In the future, Fu Ruofei could only stay at home and get dividends. He would be like Fu Zhongtian and would no longer have any real power in the Fu Corporation.
If Fu Ruofei had a bit of boldness, he could also learn from Fu Yunze and made other investments. He would also make money.
