"I didn't want to agree at first. The entertainment industry is chaotic. What if he cheated me and bribed the staff from me to take pictures of Jiang Li's cousin's private life? Similar things have happened in the entertainment industry before, such as paparazzi bribing the staff around celebrities to take pictures of celebrities changing clothes in private."
Qiao Nian raised an eyebrow and looked at him, his voice hoarse: "Continue."
Yao Yu seemed to be encouraged, and he mustered up the courage to continue, "Two days later, he contacted me again and said that he didn't need to look for an assistant like my cousin, because he had a candidate... Not long after, he sent me the person's information. I saw that it was just a staff member who was in charge of chores for my cousin, not a life assistant."
"I hesitated at the time and felt something was wrong. I even asked him, since you have found the candidate, why don't you contact the staff member yourself instead of looking for me."
"He told me that I'm a relative of the Jiang family, and if that staff member is discovered in the future, cousin Jiang Li won't really do anything to me, at most he'll scold me a few times. If they contact that staff member and they're discovered, it will be very troublesome to deal with, so they came to me."
Yao Yu now only felt regret. He regretted that he was stupid enough to be deceived like this. He looked at Qiao Nian and continued.
"…I didn't think too much about it at that time. Plus, they were generous and directly transferred 5 million to my account, and told me that the remaining 2 million was my hard work fee. I didn't resist the temptation."
Yuan Qing often talked about the relationship between the first and second branches of the Jiang family in front of him.
He knew that Qiao Nian had the best relationship with Jiang Li.
So as soon as Qiao Nian appeared in the KTV box, he knew that Qiao Nian must be looking for him, and was looking for him about Jiang Li's hospitalization.
"Cousin, cousin." Yao Yu was quite afraid of this cousin whom he had never met before. He always felt that Qiao Nian and Jiang Xianrou were different.
Jiang Xianrou likes to do things in a shady way.
Qiao Nian is the kind of person... you can ignore her, but if you really do, she won't even bother to play dirty with you.
His grandmother definitely doesn't have enough weight in Qiao Nian's eyes, and Yao Yu himself is quite timid.
He was so scared this time that he looked like he was about to cry. “I really didn’t know that they bribed that staff member to cut off the rope of coercion from cousin Jiang Li. It wasn’t until I saw the trending search on Weibo about my cousin being a big shot and absent from work that I realized something was wrong and called my dad again… I only found out that my cousin was in the hospital half an hour ago.”
Yuan Qing herself relied on her relative status to cling to the Jiang family for a living, and as for such a big thing as Jiang Li's hospitalization, she would at most go there by herself.
At best, take your son with you.
As for his grandchildren, their relationship with the Jiang family is even more distant.
She really wanted to bring Yao Yu to show up in front of Jiang Zongnan and Old Master Jiang more often, but unfortunately Jiang Li's hospitalization was not a happy occasion, and it was not appropriate for her to bring her whole family to the hospital to visit him at this time.
Yao Yu explained the whole story to himself, then took out his phone and wanted to transfer the money to Qiao Nian: "…I only spent a small portion of the 2 million. I didn't touch the remaining 1.95 million. I'll return the money to you."
The girl listened to him with half-closed eyes, her aura was very restrained. Her fair white fingers were placed on the sofa, tapping it intentionally or unintentionally, and she looked quite nonchalant.
It was not until Yao Yu finished speaking that she lifted her eyelids and looked over: "Do you still have that person's contact information?"
