Chapter 260: A Sealed, Warm Yellow Dream
When An Yimin came out of the kitchen, Jiang Yu handed over the gift she had prepared for him.
An Yimin looked at the exquisite package and asked, “Is this a gift for me?”
“Yes, see you like it.”
“As long as it’s from Yu Yu, I’ll like it.”
An Yimin felt a little warm in his heart.
Although it was a little strange for Yu Yu to address him as “you”, perhaps it was because Yu Yu felt that calling him “Uncle” would be too unfamiliar.
No matter, she was still that obedient child, Yu Yu.
Jiang Yu took the initiative to ask, “Can I take a look around the house?”
She wasn’t a curious person. When she had gone to Jiang Xingyi’s house previously, she didn’t wasn’t the one who wanted to take a look around Jiang Xingyi’s house. It was Jiang Xingyi who insisted on the house tour.
However, the place Jiang Yu was at now, this was where this body originally lived. She had replaced her and started at another place, she had never been here before.
Jiang Yu suddenly had the urge to look at this body’s old room.
An Yimin was stunned for a moment before he quickly said, “Alright, Yu Yu. Your room is just as you left it. I’ve only cleaned it once since you’ve been away and I was afraid that dust would settle on the furniture. I’ve covered everything with dust-proof cloths, I hope you don’t mind.”
An Yimin pushed open the door.
The curtains in the room were open and sunlight shone in. As An Yimin had said, the table and bed in the room were indeed covered with light yellow dust-proof cloths.
The entire room had a light yellow tone, it looked like the sun in the morning, giving off a warm scent.
Jiang Yu was a little surprised.
After she had transmigrated, no matter who she talked to, everyone had said that the original owner of this body had been an introverted and lonely little girl.
She assumed that the original owner’s room would also be decorated with a dark color. She hadn’t expected it to be the opposite. It was like the warm yellow dream of a young girl.
Now, at this moment, this dream seems to have been sealed.
Jiang Yu walked in, feeling like a ghost. She lifted the cloth on the table and saw the photo on the table. The young girl in the photo was smiling like a flower and did not know the outcome of her story.
She muttered, “Do you regret it?”
An Yimin stood at the door and did not hear what Jiang Yu said. He asked, “Yu Yu, what did you say?”
“Nothing.”
Jiang Yu exited the room.
She clenched her fists and said, “I need to go to the washroom please.”
An Yimin pointed the way and said, “It’s over here.”
Jiang Yu entered the washroom. She turned on the tap and slowly washed her hands.
Just now, it was the first time she had felt any emotion toward the original owner.
She only remembered what her little sister had told her about the story. She said that the original owner had done many things that could not be undone but Little Sister had not told her the details of what had happened.
So, what had happened to the original her?
What happened to her that made her put her life in such peril?
After Jiang Yu washed her hands, she turned off the tap.
She raised her head and looked at the face in the mirror.
It was really strange.
In real life, she had the same face as the original Jiang Yu
…
When Jiang Yu walked out of the bathroom, she heard An Yimin on the phone.
He said hesitantly, “Manager Lin, it’s the weekend today…”
Jiang Yu could hear that the voice on the other end of the line talking loudly. When she got closer, she heard the person on the other end say:
“I’m asking you to follow up on this project because I’m giving you an opportunity! Do you think this company is paying to keep trash like you around?”
“If you don’t want to do it, just say so. If you don’t appear in the office within the next hour, you can forget about working here!”
Chapter 261: Where Would You Like to Go, Boss
Then, the call ended.
As Jiang Yu walked up to An Yimin, she saw that he was bowing slightly while talking on the phone.
This was a subconscious reaction and it is enough to prove how bossy the person on the other end of the phone is usually.
Jiang Yu frowned.
When An Yimin turned around and saw Jiang Yu, he awkwardly squeezed out a smile and said, “Yu Yu, I have something to do at the company. I have to rush over immediately. I’m afraid I can’t stay and eat with you.”
Xun Shaorong shouted from the kitchen, “Hubby, come in and help me!”
An Yimin walked into the kitchen and soon Xun Shaorong could be heard shouting, “What?! You have to go into the company and put in more overtime? How many times have you gone back in the past month? You even slept in at the office last week. Aren’t you done with whatever already?!”
Then, no more sound came out.
Jiang Yu lowered her head and sent out a text message. Her expression was very calm.
When An Yimin came out of the kitchen, he saw Jiang Yu slowly sipping from her ceramic cup.
Just as An Yimin opened his mouth to say, “Yu Yu, I…”
“I’ll go with you.”
An Yimin: “Ah?”
“I called for a car and it’s already parked downstairs. Let’s get there earlier and settle it earlier.”
An Yimin was stunned. “Yu Yu, you’ll be so bored if you go there. You should stay here and rest.”
Jiang Yu said in an extremely calm tone, “It’s alright. I’ll go with you. It just so happens that I haven’t been to your company for a long time.”
In the end, An Yimin couldn’t convince Jiang Yu otherwise so he could only agree to bring her along.
Xun Shaorong felt that this was a good idea. When the time came, once she was done preparing the dishes, she could send them over. That way, neither of them would go hungry.
However, Jiang Yu said calmly, “You don’t have to worry, we’ll be back soon.”
Xun Shaorong and An Yimin did not take Jiang Yu’s words seriously.
When An Yimin and Jiang Yu arrived downstairs, they saw a car parked at the entrance of the residential area.
However, it was not a taxi.
This did not bother An Yimin. He thought that perhaps Jiang Yu had used some kind of ride-hailing app to call for a car.
Jiang Yu opened the door to the back seat and allowed An Yimin to get in first. Then, she got into the car and closed the door.
The driver in the front seat asked, “Where would you like to go, Boss?”
Jiang Yu looked up at him.
The young driver shrank away. It was over. He had blurted it out. Boss had clearly said to keep a low profile and not let this uncle find out. In the end, he had exposed himself.
However, An Yimin had not felt like something was wrong.
The fact was, he had ridden in a taxi a few times before. All the taxi drivers had addressed him as boss, it’s how they show respect to their customers. This was not strange at all.
An Yimin replied, “Shun-Ning Corporation, 12 Chang An Road, please.”
Jiang Yu did a pause when she heard the name of the company.
How could it be this name?
She had some impression of this name. That strange man that had appeared at the banquet, that was the company name that he had mentioned.
Jiang Yu’s face darkened.
It was no big deal to hear this name once but to hear it twice in such a short period of time? She felt like this was no coincidence.
She took out her phone and started looking up the company name. The first news that popped up was:
“A major reversal! Shun-Ning Corp. defeats Jiang Corp. and takes the reigns of the Oasis Project!”
Jiang Yu was stunned. Shun-Ning managed to defeat Jiang?
So, that other night, when Jiang Chenglang had left in a hurry, his reason was that something had happened in the company. Was this the reason?
Jiang Yu’s expression became cold. She began searching for more information from the web and quickly found another few articles. They said that there was a mole in the Jiang Corporation. The project proposal had been stolen and sold to Shun-Ning.
Chapter 262: Jiang Yu’s Underlings
When Shun-Ning got their hand on Jiang Corporation’s plans, they took the essence of Jiang those plans and changed them into their own.
On the day of the proposal, the Jiang’s people realized that their hard work had been stolen by another party. They had been caught off guard. Even though they had prepared meticulously, it wasn’t as good as Shun-Ning who stepped on their shoulders and refined the plan. Thus, they missed out on the project.
Another inside source also claimed that the Jiang Corporation was looking for a mole within the company. They had investigated the core members related to the project but they had yet to find anyone who had contact with Shun-Ning.
Nevertheless, everyone in the Jiang Corporation was suspicious of each other. No one could tell if the colleagues around them were spies or not. The progress of several projects had slowed down because of this.
Jiang Yu searched the IP address of the insider.
It was the address of an internet cafe.
She followed the post and hacked into the surveillance camera of the internet cafe. However, she discovered that the surveillance camera of the internet cafe had been under maintenance for those few days. There was nothing there.
Jiang Yu put her fingers to her chin. This was interesting.
This “insider” was obviously releasing this information deliberately.
She recalled that day, to the man who appeared to her at the banquet and said, “Miss Jiang, I hope we will continue cooperating in the future.”
Ah, so that was what it was.
Someone had dug a hole for her and was waiting for her here.
The driver in the front seat had secretly been observing Jiang Yu’s face. He saw Jiang Yu’s expression turn cold upon hearing the address.
Was there something wrong with this company?
Did Boss have problems with them?
Was there anything they could do?
Whatever order Boss gives, they would willingly do it!
The young man thought passionately. After peeking at the girl’s face through the rearview mirror, his thoughts ran away again.
Ah ah ah, even with such a dark expression, Boss was still so good-looking!
Today, when they learned that their boss needed a ride, they had all volunteered and ended up fighting for the spot for the chance to meet the boss. In the end, he was the one who had come out victorious, after winning the few rounds of rock, paper, scissors, he managed to win the honor of ferrying the boss.
The young man drove along happily. The feeling of being close to Bos was great!
Seeing Boss in person, she’s even more beautiful than the photos!
She was so talented. They all really admired her!
The phone in the young man’s pocket kept vibrating. He knew that the others were jealous of him and wanted to ask about the boss.
He was driving right now though, how could he multitask while driving?
Let them sit and wait!
The project they were working on was related to telecommunications. To put it simply, it was actually a smartphone.
Now, smartphones were already a booming market and once the world got used to the conveniences that smartphones can bring, it would further raise the demand for even better smartphones.
It was a struggle to meet the consumers’ needs but also make the operation simple, a user-friendly interface, and improve various functions on the smartphone. They’ve been working on solving this.
However, every company had its own R&D team, and now the current mainstay phone on the market contained chips and technology from other countries, very much praised by the market.
Domestic technology was currently inferior to foreign technology, and the R&D teams were mainly there to make improvements on these foreign technologies but this young man’s team did not agree with this approach.
Their dream was to have a smartphone that was exclusively China’s so that they could use that to spread China’s technological knowledge to the other nations and lead the foreigners to follow their example.
