Jian Jing knew what she was like in Fang Limin's eyes: a girl with a bit of temper and some ability.
He wants to use her, so he praises her, makes her happy and satisfies her vanity. At the same time, he threatens and warns her to make her follow the instructions and not act on her own.
To put it nicely, it is called a combination of kindness and severity, and to put it bluntly, it is not carrots and sticks. No matter which one it is, it seems to have succeeded.
During the investigation, she complained a lot, but still found the murderer and the groom and completed his instructions.
He thought he had her under control and saw through her.
So, when she pulled out the gun, he was not afraid, but pretended to be "weak" just to satisfy the man's teasing and pampering of the woman - look, the kitten has shown its claws, there is nothing I can do, I have to cooperate and pretend to be scared.
He was confident that everything was under control.
And Jian Jing had tolerated him until now just to destroy his self-confidence at his most proud moment.
In fact, she had stuffed all the bullets in the gun into the storage compartment, so even the darkest non-African would not be shot in the head.
Fang Limin doesn’t know.
If she fired the gun, his sense of control over her would disappear completely.
You think I'm just bluffing, no, I really know how to shoot.
You think I'm a principled messenger of justice, but no, if I go crazy I will really kill you.
You thought I was conquered, controlled, and seen through by you. No, no, no, you were deceived by me.
I am the one who sees it all.
I am the hunter.
The feeling of impending death at that moment was enough to eliminate all desires and destroy all self-confidence.
Damn, it’s you, an LS!
There was a knock on the door. The secretary said in a calm tone, but with a hint of caution: "Chairman, do you have any instructions?"
"Pour Miss Jane a cup of good tea." Fang Limin said with a slightly strange tone.
The secretary didn’t hear it: “Yes.”
Jian Jing smiled imperceptibly. Look, she had only just finished drinking a cup of tea.
The secretary quickly brewed some expensive tea, and as soon as he entered the room, the long-lasting tea fragrance wafted everywhere.
Fang Limin said: "It is this year's Mingqian tea."
Jian Jing understood. Although she didn't know much about tea, she knew that Mingqian tea was as valuable as gold. She said, "It smells strange."
"You are worthy of Miss Jian." Fang Limin regained his composure, "You are our family's benefactor. Thanks to you, Xiaoyan escaped the disaster."
"The groom is a lucky man." Jian Jing was polite and modest, as if she were an ordinary girl. Now, she no longer needed sharp words, "You are too kind."
"You are really young and promising," Fang Limin praised, then changed the subject, "Although my ability is limited, you saved a father's child. Is there anything I can do?"
Jian Jing nodded: "Yes."
Fang Limin said calmly: "What's the matter?"
"I want to find someone." She said slowly, "I wonder if you have heard of Master Tianqi?"
Fang Limin pondered.
Jane waited silently. He didn't say a word, and neither did she.
After about three to five minutes, Fang Limin said, "I have heard of this name. He seems to be a Feng Shui master with a little fame."
"How can we find him?"
Fang Limin said: "This person is very mysterious. He is only introduced by regular customers. It is not easy for you to find him."
"Even Chairman Fang has no solution?"
He smiled, picked up the teacup and sipped the fragrant tea: "You don't have to use the method of provoking. I said I would thank you, and I will definitely move." After thinking for a moment, he said, "How about this, I will ask your friends for you and see if there is any solution."
"Thank you in advance." Jian Jing achieved her goal and didn't want to stay any longer.
"Miss Jane, do you have any other requests?" he asked.
"Any other requests?" Jian Jing spread her hands. "You've already paid thirty million to save the groom. I don't think there's anything else you need to thank me for."
Fang Limin raised his eyebrows.
"The chairman doesn't think I'm doing two tasks and only getting paid for one, right?" she smiled.
He ordered her to run around all day long. Even if she was doing it for a system task, he had to kill her, otherwise he would feel uncomfortable being ordered around.
Fang Limin said: "Of course not, but the person I want ran away, you can only get 10 million."
Jian Jing looked him up and down. He was indeed a businessman. When it came time to be smart, he would not give up even a penny.
"I accept," she said.
The only way to relieve worries is to get rich quickly.
Although I spent 20 points of courage and 20 points of contribution today, the settlement given by the system was very generous.
[Task Name: The Secret of the Wedding (Completed)]
[Task Rewards and Penalties: 30 points of Courage + 10 points of Contribution (to avoid more casualties)]
[Note: Courage can be used to draw cards (normal), each time costs 5 points; Contribution can be used to draw cards (special), each time costs 10 points]]
If you do the math, I earned 10 courage points. The X-ray machine and storage card are also very useful, not to mention the revolver, which is a real surprise.
Well, it's definitely very good.
When your wallet is full, your mood will naturally improve.
When Kang Mucheng found her, he saw her talking to Lu Yu in a good mood.
Lu Yu was also very happy. His cousin's death was just a false alarm. The wedding ended in a thriller and the happy event did not turn into a funeral. It was really the best thing.
When the haze disappears, the instincts of living things begin to emerge.
Today, Lu Yu's mental changes towards Jian Jing were roughly like this: Another materialistic woman (disdain) → Good at pretending (old-fashioned) → A little interesting (not interested) → Totally different from what I expected (unexpected) → She actually despises me (but not angry at all) → It's rare to meet such a unique woman, it would be a pity to miss her (mating instinct activated).
In a nutshell: It smells really good!
Lu Yu was also a rich young man who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Inferiority and hesitation were not options in his dictionary. He was pursued by women before, so now he would naturally not delay when it comes to the ones he is interested in.
He began to chase.
I'm just not very proficient in the business.
"It's almost ten o'clock. Do you want to go for a drink?" He looked at his watch and thought of an activity he often did. "Let's celebrate our successful rescue of Xiaoyan."
Jian Jing: "I'm tired."
Lu Yu immediately changed his words: "Then I'll take you home."
"Mr. Kang will see me off." Jian Jing saw Kang Mucheng and asked quickly, "Are you leaving? I want to go home."
Kang Mucheng saw that she had no intention of keeping the appointment, so he said, "Yes, let's go."
Lu Yu did not give up, and said with a smile: "Boss Kang, please be kind and give me this opportunity to show your courtesy."
Kang Mucheng didn't respond and looked at Jian Jing.
She didn't look at him and urged Kang Mucheng: "Aren't you going?"
"It's a pity." Kang Mucheng said calmly, "Try harder next time."
Only then did Lu Yu give up.
After getting into Kang Mucheng's car, Jian Jing pulled up the lumbar cushion on the back seat and leaned back as if she knew the way. Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief and completely relax her body.
"You've been wandering around all day, what have you been doing?" Kang Mucheng asked, "Did something happen to the groom?"
Jian Jing couldn't help but look at him: "Why do you ask?"
Kang Mucheng sighed: "It's happened several times. I'm not blind."
In recent years, the children are no longer satisfied with staying at home and writing. Instead, they are keen to draw materials from real cases. When they encounter a case, they run around and cannot be stopped.
He couldn't help but say, "Murderers are extremely vicious. What if Wan Xiao gets hurt? If you want to use real cases, just read the news reports."
Jian Jing: "That's not the case."
"What's different?"
“Nowhere is different.”
Kang Mucheng emphasized: "It's very dangerous."
Then Jian Jing couldn't help herself and asked, "Where in this world is not dangerous?"
Not to mention the endless reports on the news, how many cases have happened to her alone? It's better than Mihua City. At least she didn't go through thousands of episodes in a year.
But as for the chance of winning, I never dared to think about it before.
"Don't worry about it. Actually, it's not that serious." Kang Mucheng said, "Like what happened today, if you had stayed with me all the time, nothing would have happened."
"I don't want to be a light bulb." She said, and then suddenly remembered, "Is that the bridesmaid?"
Kang Mucheng knew who she was asking and answered.
Jian Jing didn't ask any more questions.
Unexpectedly, after obvious hesitation, Kang Mucheng actually spoke: "She is my junior in college."
The melon is coming. Jian Jing's sluggish spirits are lifted again: "And then?"
Kang Mucheng said: "No more."
Jian Jing: “???”
But he talked about something completely unrelated: "You should know that I don't have a father."
Jian Jing thought carefully for a moment. Indeed, in her limited memory, she seemed to have never heard of or seen Kang Mucheng's father.
"He is..." She hesitated.
Kang Mucheng said calmly: "I don't know. My mother was born out of wedlock and raised me alone."
Simple and quiet: 0.0
Giving birth out of wedlock thirty years ago?! President Kang is so avant-garde.
"She never told me who her father was, and I never asked. Maybe she's dead, or maybe she's married." Kang Mucheng started talking, and then he realized that it wasn't as hard as he thought. "Although I don't think the absence of my father has any impact on my life, it is indeed an area I'm unfamiliar with."
Jane listened quietly.
He said, "At your age, you might think thirty is old, right?"
Jian Jing said: "If they don't die, everyone will be thirty years old."
Kang Mucheng laughed, but said, "That's what I thought when I was 20. I feel like I've become a father by the age of 30. Time flies by, and there's no such thing as something you have to do at any age. Family and marriage are not necessary for me, and I'm not in a hurry."
Jian Jing nodded: "That's good too."
Kang Mucheng couldn't help but glance at her.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Do you think I'm old-fashioned? Do you think people have to get married and fall in love?" she asked back unhappily.
Kang Mucheng couldn't help laughing, and found that this topic was not difficult to talk about. When he was willing to be honest with her, she was also willing to share her own views.
"Girls are usually more eager." He thought of Rongrong, how happy she was at the wedding today, her eyes sparkling, like a crowned princess.
Jian Jing disagreed and used Ji Feng's words: "Love affects my IQ."
Kang Mucheng: “?”
He was afraid that he was setting a bad example, so he said quickly, "I'm not sure."
Jian Jing refused to answer and looked at him: "Where's the president? Isn't she going home?"
Kang Mucheng: "I went to drink with friends."
Jian Jing: “…Great.”
I attended an event in the morning, and then flew back to China to attend a wedding. After that, I went out for a drink. I felt so energetic.
She couldn't take it anymore. After a while, her eyelids kept drooping and she was yawning from exhaustion.
Kang Mucheng: "Go to sleep if you want. I'll call you when we get there."
Jian Jing hummed, her eyelids closed instantly, and she fell asleep.
Kang Mucheng shook his head, pulled over, took a blanket from the back seat and covered her with it. Then he slowed down and drove slowly back to her home.
When we arrived at the place, I woke her up, accompanied her into the elevator, and sent her home. Only after making sure that no one was home did I feel relieved.
"Meow." Pudding came over and meowed at the toilet.
Kang Mucheng looked at it.
It looked at Kang Mucheng.
He turned and left.
Pudding circled around his feet: "Meow, meow, meow?" Aren't you going to clean up the poop
Kang Mucheng: "You have two toilets."
Pudding said aggrievedly: “Meow meow meow.” I like that one.
Kang Mucheng taught him a lesson: "Don't be so squeamish."
Pudding: “…”
Kang Mucheng was impartial and did not tolerate the cat's bad habits. He simply closed the shop and left.
When I got home, it was almost twelve o'clock.
"Auntie Wang, make some sweet soup." He said to the housekeeper, "My mother is drinking again."
Aunt Wang had worked at the Kang family for seven or eight years and was very familiar with the temperaments of the two customers, one big and one small. She immediately responded and went into the kitchen to get busy.
He asked, "Do you want to eat something to fill your stomach? We went out for drinks today, didn't you eat well?"
"Cook me a bowl of noodles and a cup of tea." Kang Mucheng said.
He took a shower, changed into home clothes, had a bowl of noodles in the restaurant for a midnight snack, then picked up his teacup, went into the study and started working.
At two o'clock in the morning, President Kang returned home, took off her high heels, and went straight to the kitchen to get soup.
Kang Mucheng heard the noise and came downstairs, staring at her and frowning: "How much did you drink?"
"Not much, just two cups." President Kang drank a bowl of hot soup, which was sweet and warm, and he felt relieved. "My son is so good. He knows to save me a midnight snack."
Kang Mucheng shook his head: "You should drink less."
"Drink for two more years while you're still young, you won't be able to drink anymore." President Kang blinked and said mysteriously, "By the way, let me tell you something. Someone turned herself in to the Public Security Bureau today, saying that Fang Limin wanted to kill her, and she took out some good stuff."
Kang Mucheng: "What?"
"Qili Bridge, do you remember it?" President Kang said, "Ten years ago, the bridge collapsed, killing more than 80 people and seriously injuring more than 100. It was a project of Fang Group."
Kang Mucheng took a deep breath.
"The stock market is going to plummet." President Kang's eyes were bright, not like a drunk at all. "Let's think of a way to buy the Fang family's Dream Building."
