Chapter 176 - First Class Scum
“Even if I did save this old woman, she won’t acknowledge the favour. Who knows, her attitude could become worse than before and torture you more? Why don’t we do it like this, bring me to see your mother,” Gan Song Bai suggested after some thought.
” There isn’t anything better than you being willing to take a trip there, but… Qin Zhi Xue doesn’t allow me to leave Hua Ning County at all. He executed his right as the family of the patient to reject all visits from outsiders, I can’t see her at all,” Xiang Jin anxiously explained.
Jing Yun Zhao pursed her lips, feeling like she wanted to do something to help this woman.
The company currently had a lack of manpower and while it was easy to recruit, the ones who had actual ability would number in few. If Xiang Jin’s words weren’t a lie, then if she could pull her under her wing, it wouldn’t be a bad thing.
However, she still hadn’t confirmed whether Xiang Jin truly had the ability, so Jing Yun Zhao wouldn’t speak about the matter of the company first.
With Xiang Jin’s explanation, Gan Song Bai didn’t have any options left. His anger and frustration could only be suppressed. Xiang Jin sighed again, “My father used to like to play with antiques and that’s how he got to know that Director Tang in Ning City, their relationship was very good too. Unfortunately, I’ve never met Director Tang and don’t have a way to contact him either…”
If she could come into contact with the Tang family, she would definitely try. At most, they would just reject her plea for help.
She remembered that her father liked to go to their house just to view and touch those good things, and when he returned he’d be very lively in telling her that their Xiang family couldn’t count as a large business, plus their wealth also couldn’t be compared to the Tang family. Father only went to the Tang House to satisfy his eye craving.
The corner of Jing Yun Zhao’s lips twitched; No novel or play lived without coincidences.
“The one you’re talking about is Old Man Tang Lin?” she still asked for the sake of confirmation.
“That’s right,” Xiang Jin nodded, stunned.
Jing Yun Zhao let out a heavy breath, “I can give you his contact number, but I can’t confirm that he’ll agree to help you, so many years have already passed after all. Whether he can still remember an uninvolved person like you is uncertain.”
Was Old Tang’s private number actually so easily gotten? Otherwise, how would Xiang Jin not have a single result to show for even till now?
Being told this by the young girl, Xiang Jin was dumbfounded, unknowing if it was all a lie.
Even Gan Song Bai gave her an astonished look, somewhat lost. When did this lass get to know of the top personnel in Ning City? And she even had his contact information?!
“R-really?” Xiang Jin’s heart felt as if it’d stopped beating.
“Why don’t I lend you my phone so you can contact him now? But I have a request,” she paused, “If Senior Tang is willing to help you, after you finish settling your family matters, look for this person. If he acknowledges you (r ability), you have to stay in his company. Can you do that?”
Jing Yun Zhao fished out a name card, printed on it was Bai Yu An’s contact information.
Jing Yun Zhao’s take to this was quite unexpected, causing great confusion for the other two.
Xiang Jin came back quickly enough since this matter concerned her mother and immediately nodded. In the next second, Jing Yun Zhao handed her phone over.
At this moment, Old Man Tang was relaxing as he drank his afternoon tea when he received a call. Seeing the caller ID display Jing Yun Zhao’s name, he couldn’t help feeling a little happy, just that the voice he heard belonged to a stranger when he answered the phone. immediately turned ugly.
The number of people he could call his friends were a mere handful and Old Xiang was one of them. Although many years had passed, he still put the comings and goings of their old relationship in his heart. After Old Xiang passed away, he originally intended to take care of the Xiang family for a while, but after a quick investigation, he found that Xiang Jin’s husband was quite capable so he let it go. So it turned out that it was all a facade?
