Chapter 688: 431 Request Denied and Counter-Threatened: Furiously Denounce the Vile Act (3 Updates)

In the café

Shen Shuci and Liang Wenzhong entered the café, and because the man was carrying bags full of luxury goods, it was inevitable that they would attract a few extra glances.

"Nowadays in Beijing, there are so many rich people, with their hands full of luxury items," a man laughed. "Look at those two who just came in, isn’t that the man from the Liang Group, President Liang? Why would he appear here?"

"Carrying a handful of brand names, with a beautiful woman by his side."

Beijing is a place where dragons hide and tigers crouch. Although Liang Wenzhong wasn’t a particularly famous figure in Beijing, he was still known by quite a few.

At this time, the person sitting opposite the man, upon hearing Liang Group, couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow and glance over, his colorless eyes narrowing slightly.

Why would she be with someone from the Liang Family?

"You’re interested in gossip too, Group Leader Jiang?" the man laughed.

"Just taking a casual look."

That person was none other than Jiang Shiyi.

Left Bank Garden could be considered a location in the suburbs of Beijing. Some people who couldn’t afford houses within the inner rings purchased homes in the suburbs, and Jiang Shiyi was there today having arranged to meet a colleague nearby to discuss some official business.

He knew that Shen Shuci lived there but since they weren’t close, there was no need to disturb her. The reason why someone from the Liang Family would catch his attention was because he had heard that the senior Liang had gone to the old Jiang residence to give an apology.

Jiang Chengsi too had felt that the Liang Family’s apology was just for show, and although it was a shame they didn’t give face to his family, he had to consider his grandmother’s feelings. Feeling annoyed at the bottom of his heart, he complained a few words to Jiang Shiyi.

And, the reason for Liang Han’s fight that day was said to be because his father took a young lover, so...

Could it... have something to do with Shen Shuci?

How did she come to know Liang Wenzhong?

Logically, they were two unrelated people and it wasn’t working hours at this time.

"Group Leader Jiang, I heard that the Liang Group is preparing to collaborate with the Jiang Family, is it true? Do you have any insider information to share? If it’s true, the Liang Group’s stock will surely soar, and if I invest now, I might make a fortune."

It was just a joke from the man, and Jiang Shiyi didn’t take it to heart, instead picking up his coffee and glancing at the two people who had already found a seat not far away.
