"How's it going, President Jiang? Judging from your expression, what happened?" Qu Tao, oblivious to the danger, insisted on getting right in Jiang Zekai's face and kept asking.
Jiang Zekai was already fuming because he had been outmaneuvered by a little girl like An Ke. Since he had already confronted An Ke, Qu Tao, this pawn, was of little use to him. There was no need for Jiang Zekai to be amiable to him anymore. "Who do you think you are? How dare you yell at me?"
Jiang Zekai let out a heavy snort and then left without looking back.
Qu Tao was left standing there alone. He was slow to react and just stood there stunned. After a moment, he realized that he had been abandoned.
Qu Tao had an urge to faint on the spot. When he turned around, he saw An Ke standing at the office door, looking at him with a half - smile. His heart skipped a beat.
An Ke might have discovered his cooperation with Jiang Zekai, so he didn't dare to stay there any longer and quickly scurried back to his seat.
"Stop it!" Jiang Zekai returned to his company and whispered instructions to his secretary.
The secretary was slow to understand. "Ah, President, what did you say?"
"I said you can stop. There's no need to go after An Ke anymore!" Jiang Zekai said in a fit of anger, looking at his secretary impatiently.
Suddenly, he felt that everyone around him was so stupid. None of them were as smart and quick - witted as he was.
"Oh, okay." The secretary quickly agreed and then scurried away because Jiang Zekai's bad reputation was really intimidating.
"President, I think Miss An Ke may not need your help anymore!" While Fu Qing was keeping an eye on the online situation for An Ke, he noticed that those trolls had suddenly disappeared.
He had long known that those trolls were being instigated by someone. The fact that they withdrew so readily must mean that Miss An Ke had found the mastermind!
Fu Qing looked up at his own president. He was still waiting here for a chance to play the hero. It was really funny. But thinking of He Ting's brutality, he just secretly mocked He Ting in his heart.
He Ting frowned. Although he had missed the chance to be the hero saving the beauty, it didn't stop him from finding out the mastermind and protecting An Ke from risks.
"Fu Qing, help me find out who this mastermind is. Make sure he never gets another chance to hurt An Ke."
He Ting always thought about An Ke, but unfortunately, An Ke had no idea. Even Fu Qing felt it was a pity for him. "President, I've already found out that it was Jiang Zekai who did this, but it's possible that Jiang Man instigated it."
"Her again?" As soon as He Ting heard this, he immediately assumed that Jiang Man was involved. He was a bit annoyed. Once again, it was because of him that An Ke had been troubled.
An Ke was a person who hated trouble so much. If she knew the truth, would she still be willing to see him?
He Ting was a bit worried. He planned to go and see An Ke to explain things clearly. Just then, Yuan Ping's call came in, successfully interrupting He Ting's train of thought.
"Brother, take a look at who this is?" Yuan Ping's excited voice came through the phone. He Ting was shocked to see the figure in the video. It was actually Jiang Man.
Yuan Ping had taken action against Jiang Man. Did this mean that he had already obtained evidence of Jiang Man's crimes? He Ting's heart raced. "Okay, wait for me. I'll be there right away."
"He Ting, I've always suspected that someone was following me. Turns out it was really you!" Jiang Man sneered disdainfully. At this moment, this was the real her.
Cold and heartless towards the world, she didn't care about anything. There was no trace of emotion or humanity in her eyes. She was indeed a great agent, worthy of being personally trained by the Godfather.
"I know your purpose for approaching me. I don't blame you. I just want to know the truth about my father's death. Will you tell me?"
He Ting lifted Jiang Man's chin, sizing her up. His voice was deliberately sickeningly sweet, and his fingers unconsciously slid across her cheek.
Jiang Man shrank back instinctively. This was the first time she had seen He Ting like this. He gave her a very dangerous feeling that made her shiver.
Jiang Man looked at He Ting's hand clutching her shoulder in pain and managed to hold back another cry. "He Ting, I'll tell you. I killed your father with my own hands. If it weren't for that old man always stopping me, I would have succeeded long ago."
He Ting immediately let go. Sure enough, he had guessed right. Jiang Man was really the murderer. He took a step back. He had already sentenced Jiang Man to death in his heart.
Jiang Man laughed happily, thinking that she had managed to hurt He Ting. "What, He Ting, you coward. I'll tell you, your father died because of you. Or rather, you killed your father."
Seeing that He Ting's expression was off, Yuan Ping kicked Jiang Man unconscious with one kick and looked at him worriedly. "Brother, are you okay? Don't believe Jiang Man's words! You..."
He Ting had been through a lot. How could he be affected by Jiang Man's simple mind - game? Just then, he suddenly thought that the Godfather might have been lurking in the dark.
Maybe An Ke would be in danger.
"Yuan Ping, I'll leave this woman to you. I don't want to see her in this world anymore. Help me deal with her. Consider it revenge for me."
Yuan Ping naturally wouldn't refuse. "Brother, don't worry. An Ke will be fine. If you're worried, just go! I'll handle everything here."
"Why are you here at this time? Weren't you saying you had a lot of things to do before?" An Ke looked at Bo Jinnian, who had suddenly come to visit her at home, curiously.
Bo Jinnian waved the meal he had specially prepared for An Ke. "I was worried about you. If you don't welcome me, do you not welcome this delicious meal either?"
An Ke was amused by Bo Jinnian's words. "Okay, stop joking. Come in!"
"How's the investigation on the Godfather going?"
An Ke knew that Bo Jinnian had been investigating the Godfather. He had been away from home these past few days for this very reason.
Bo Jinnian nodded and sighed helplessly. "The person we thought was the Godfather might be his son. He took over the Godfather's position. The real Godfather is already dead."
"What..." An Ke couldn't believe it. Although she had sensed that there was something wrong with the Godfather, she didn't expect it to be like this. The Godfather was already dead?
She found it hard to believe, but this could explain why the Godfather's personality had changed so much. It was because they were two different people.
"Knock, knock... knock, knock..."
An Ke was a bit puzzled. Who could it be coming to see her at this time? "Who is it? Wait a minute. Bo Jinnian, go and open the door for me. I'll tidy up a bit."
