Chapter 245 Chaos
The room was engulfed in a heavy silence, thicker than the tension in the atmosphere.
Wang Minghua’s eyes unceremoniously glanced around and he fixed his gaze on the uneasy Fu Xiaolan. Meanwhile, Fu Xiaolan was just staring at Jiang Yue, waiting for her to speak up.
Jiang Yue had her legs crossed and was tapping at the table in front of her, her eyes squinting at Fu Xiaolan. A habit that she did when she was in a deep thought.
"Tell me..." she began. Jiang Yue’s gaze was cold, freezing, she tried to keep it light are futile. "From the start."
Fu Xiaolan took a deep breath at Jiang Yue’s words. "It was Li Qiang. He was the one, who approached me years ago. He told me that he can give me the revenge that I have wanted against the Fu Family. In return..."
"What?" she asked, impatience lacing her voice.
"In return, he wanted me to cause chaos to the Fu Family and attempt to turn the board members against the Fu Family: against Fu Yi and Fu Jin to be exact."
"Why would he do that?"
"How should I know? I only met him thrice." he shrugged. "Okay, maybe four times. Still... he never said anything and I did not ask."
Jiang Yue just stared at him before she gestured him to continue.
"So, I um... I got close to Wang Minghua and... Ummm... nothing has really happened man. I was just ... you know. You are not my type." he said awkwardly at Wang Minghua. "Okay, that’s not the point. So, I wanted you to know about my existence, so I deliberately let you hear my conversation at Wang Minghua’s office," he said.
"Then, I contacted someone to cause chaos inside your company..."
"Who told you that I own Moon Corp?"
"Li Qiang. He arranged everything, including Fu Jin’s secretary." he answered.
"So why... did you leave some traces? Why have you let me find you?"
"I don’t know." he shrugged.
"I don’t believe you."
"That’s the truth," he said.
Jiang Yue glared at Fu Xiaolan. However, before she could say anything, Wang Bolin went inside the room,
"Was it Li Qiang?" she immediately asked, her gaze never leaving Fu Xiaolan. Although Fu Xiaolan fought with them, Jiang Yue still did not trust him.
Fu Xiaolan was the type of person, who was capable of hurting his own family. Though his grudge runed deep, Jiang Yue was still not comfortable with trusting him.
And Jiang Yue wanted to play it safe. She would rather be wary of him now and regret for trusting him later, than trust him now.
"Yes, They said Li Qiang wanted the USB" Wang Bolin answered directly.
"Why does he want the USB?" she asked Fu Xiaolan.
"I wanted to get it first instead of Li Qiang."
"Why?"
"I wanted to know what does he want from the Fu Conglomerate," he answered. "He obviously wanted to cause chaos and confusion. Divide and conquer. But, I still don’t know why. I don’t know why he hates Fu Jin and his family."
Jiang Yue did not respond to Fu Xiaolan’s words. Now, she was curious about the contents of this USB. Yet, she could only wait for Fu Jin to tell her everything. She let out a long sigh as her mind started wandering around.
Li Qiang... Li Qiang... what did he want from the Fu Family? Why did he hate Jiang Yue and Fu Jin?
"One more thing," Jiang Yue gave her focus back to Fu Xiaolan. "Why are you trying to act against him now? What happened? Did he tried to kill you?"
Fu Xiaolan nodded. "Thanks to you and your brilliant mind, I have failed my mission, and I was deemed useless."
"And for Li Qiang, ’Useless’ is just another word for liability. And ’liabilities’ should be immediately eliminated." he added, his words seemed to turn the environment a lot colder, than what it used to be.
Then, the door burst opened as Fu Jin strode towards Jiang Yue and pulled her into a tight hug.
