Chapter 8 The Yang Family's Project

Beep, beep, beep!

After waiting for about ten seconds, Liu Xinlan's cold voice came from the other end of the phone: "Jiang Chenfeng? Why are you looking for me?"

Jiang Chenfeng felt a surge of joy, as if he had found a savior.

[Great! It seems only this Iceberg Stupid Woman can clear my name! As long as she voluntarily admits that I took the opportunity to get her drunk and attempted to take advantage of her, then Su Yanran will definitely despise me and agree to call off this engagement!]

"What did you say?"

Liu Xinlan's tone was filled with anger.

Jiang Chenfeng was stunned for a moment and instinctively replied: "I didn't say anything?"

"You didn't?"

Liu Xinlan realized belatedly that she must have heard Jiang Chenfeng's inner thoughts.

Although she didn't know what Jiang Chenfeng was trying to do, she definitely could not let him get his way!

"Miss Liu, it's like this! Could you please tell them what happened at the hotel earlier? Just tell them clearly, point by point, how I got you drunk and tried to take advantage of you!" Jiang Chenfeng said.

He deliberately turned on speakerphone and looked at Su Yanran and Old Master Su, waiting for them to hear the story and show expressions of disgust and disdain toward him.

"Take advantage of you?"

Liu Xinlan said indifferently: "Did that happen? Why don't I remember such a thing occurring?"

Want me to do as you, Jiang Chenfeng, say? It's simply wishful thinking!

Jiang Chenfeng was dumbfounded and hurriedly said: "Miss Liu, it's been less than an hour, how could you have forgotten? An hour ago, I invited you for a drink, didn't I?"

If he didn't remember clearly that he had indeed gotten Liu Xinlan drunk, even Jiang Chenfeng himself would have suspected that his memory was faulty.

How could Liu Xinlan not remember something that clearly happened?

"We did!"

"Were you drunk?"

"I was!"

"Did I help you to the hotel suite?"

"You did!"

"Then did I try to take advantage of you?"

"No, you didn't!"

Jiang Chenfeng's mentality was on the verge of collapse. With a ferocious expression, he gritted his teeth and asked: "Since I was the one who helped you into the room, doesn't that mean I was trying to take advantage of you?"

Liu Xinlan answered as if it were natural: "Of course not! I actually want to thank you for helping me to the room to rest after I got drunk."

"..."

Jiang Chenfeng clenched his fists tightly, feeling as if he had encountered some incredible, bizarre event.

Great! Now it's even harder to clear his name!

"Besides thanking you, I also want to apologize to you. That Lin Tian is my personal Bodyguard, and he actually disobeyed my orders and insisted on framing you, a good person." Liu Xinlan said.

"Miss Liu, I'm hanging up now..." Jiang Chenfeng hurriedly hung up the phone.

If he continued talking, he was really worried that Liu Xinlan would praise him into a hero.

Old Master Su and Su Yanran exchanged a look, revealing gratified smiles. Old Master Su said: "Little Jiang! Even that girl from the Liu family praises you as a good person, what are you still trying to deny? I remember that girl from the Liu family is an iceberg, she doesn't give any man the time of day. For her to personally praise you is enough to show just how good your character is!"

Su Yanran nodded in agreement: "Grandpa is right! I was one-sided before. I listened to other people's evaluations of you and instinctively thought you weren't a good person. Now it seems you are definitely an out-and-out good person, and you are also very humble and low-key!"

[They're crazy, they're all crazy! That Iceberg Stupid Woman is crazy too; she really wants to kill me!]

[Better make a run for it! If I stay here any longer, I'm afraid Old Master Su will decide on the wedding date today!]

Jiang Chenfeng dared not stay any longer. He put on a smile that looked worse than crying and said: "Grandpa Su, Miss Su, I think there's a misunderstanding about this, I'll explain it to you later! My dad told me to go home early, so I won't stay any longer."

"Sigh..." Old Master Su raised his hand, wanting to ask Jiang Chenfeng to stay.

But Jiang Chenfeng left as if fleeing, not giving him any chance to stop him.

After Jiang Chenfeng left, Old Master Su looked at Su Yanran and said: "Yanran, did you mean just now that you don't want to call off the engagement with Little Jiang anymore?"

Su Yanran smiled slightly: "Not for now!"

"Really? Actually, Grandpa has thought it through. Since you don't want to do it, Grandpa doesn't want to force you. You mentioned to Grandpa before that you wanted to call off the engagement with the Jiang Family..."

"Just pretend I never said what I mentioned before!" Su Yanran interrupted.

Old Master Su didn't understand why Su Yanran's change was so drastic, so he could only nod and agree: "Alright!"

...

Having escaped the Su Family, Jiang Chenfeng panted, covered in sweat, as several messages flowed through his mind.

"Congratulations to the host for successfully passing a plot segment. Rewarding the host with double the physical fitness and 50 billion in cash!"

Jiang Chenfeng felt a surge of power enter his body, blending into his limbs and bones. This feeling of being filled with power was truly very comfortable.

With his current physical fitness, he should be able to take five punches from the protagonist without dying, right?

As long as he continued to survive one plot segment after another, he would sooner or later grow to the point where even the protagonist couldn't kill him. When that time came, it would be the moment for him to fight back!

Before he truly rose to power, Jiang Chenfeng felt that he still had to bide his time and develop cautiously.

Ring, ring!

The phone rang. Jiang Chenfeng took out his phone and saw it was his father calling, so he immediately answered: "Dad! I've already visited Old Master Su and am now preparing to go home."

"Hmm! I also called Old Master Su, and he said that girl Yanran has changed her opinion of you. It seems you didn't disappoint me after all!"

"Changed her opinion? I'm done for!" Jiang Chenfeng felt a wave of despair.

"What are you 'done for'? You rascal, strike while the iron is hot. Keep performing well and strive to make them look up to you! There's a project the company needs to discuss tomorrow; you go and talk it over for me!"

"A project?"

"Yes! You should settle down and put your energy into your career! This project is a collaboration with the Yang Family. If you can secure it, it will be of great benefit to our Jiang Family, do you understand?"

"So I have to go?" Jiang Chenfeng's face was bitter, and he said helplessly.

"Of course you have to go. Talk it over well. If you succeed in this project and make that girl Yanran completely change her opinion of you, your marriage will be set!"

The Yang Family's project?

Is it that technology project?

Jiang Chenfeng thought of the third plot segment, which was developed from this technology project.

According to the original plot, the Jiang Family and the Yang Family were to collaborate on a project. The Protagonist Lin Tian would cooperate with the Yang Family's second young master, Yang Zirong, to prepare to gang up and swindle the Jiang Family, but in the end, even the Yang Family suffered heavy losses.

Simply put, it was Lin Tian and Yang Zirong setting a trap to swindle the Jiang Family, which ended up causing the Yang Family to suffer a heavy blow as well, almost leading to their bankruptcy.

In the end, Lin Tian stepped in to save the Yang Family and won Yang Shuyue's heart.
