    In the morning, Jiang Jingchen sent his wife to school and then went to work at Jiang Corporation.


    It was still early, so he did not go into the office building. Instead, he chose a nice cafe nearby and sat down elegantly for a cup of coffee.


    “How bad is the situation with the Song family?”


    Song Zhou had only revealed a few things to Tang Beibei yesterday. There were many things that he couldn’t say in front of her.


    Song Zhou said, “Old Master Song and Lu Huai couldn’te to an agreement, and Song Hai has disappeared. The people who took him were discreet and didn’t leave behind any clues. The Song family guessed that it was Lu Huai. There’s also a lot of evidence pointing to Lu Huai.”<div>

    “On Lu Huai’s end, when he heard about Song Hai’s disappearance, he even said that he would celebrate. He said that Song Hai hadmitted too many sins and that the heavens are punishing him.”


    “Our people also haven’t found out who took Song Hai. The perpetrator really hid things well.”


    Jiang Jingchen ordered a cup of coffee and reviewed several documents on his tablet.


    There was a time difference between his business overseas and in China.


    Mornings in China were just the right time to deal with any overseas documents from the day before.


    “Looks like this Song Hai has reallymitted many sins, or the Song family would know who took him.”


    Song Zhou was surprised. “Young Master, do you mean that Lu Huai didn’t kidnap Song Hai?”


    “I didn’t say that. It’s just a guess. Think about it, who would benefit the most from Song Hai’s disappearance?”


    Song Zhou thought for a few seconds before he said, “Song Hai caused Lu Linlin’s ident, so Lu Huai has every reason to take Song Hai. However, Song Kai would benefit the most from Song Hai’s disappearance.”


    Song Zhou was surprised. “Young Master, does Song Kai have something to do with Song Hai’s disappearance?”


    “Song Kai is smart. At this juncture, the Song family is busy fighting with Lu Huai. He just yed bystander and contacted Song Yan in secret. If he’s able to get Song Yan’s support, she would be his trump card.”


    “Song Kai getting Song Yan’s support is one way he could control the Song family. Song Yan puts profits above everything else. She has no reason to say no to such a mutually beneficial arrangement.”


    Jiang Jingchen seemed to have read something interesting when he let out a loud chuckle.


    “It doesn’t matter if Song Hai has been kidnapped. His death doesn’t make any difference in the scheme of things. Let’s just watch how Song Kai will turn the tables now. If he managed to control the Song family, we could take advantage of that.”


    “How?”


    Jiang Jingchen’s thin lips moved, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, like a sharp cold knife.


    He could kill without bloodshed.


    “I suddenly changed my mind.”


    Jiang Jingchen didn’t exin in detail and Song Zhou knew better not to ask.


    It was almost ten o’clock when Jiang Jingchen finished dealing with his businesses. He then sauntered to Jiang Corporation with Song Zhou to start their workday there.


    People at Jiang Corporation gossiped when they saw hime to work sote.


    The first young master of the Jiang family came to workte and left early every day. He brought his butler with him everywhere. He only knew how to y games and scold customers at work. He left all his work to his butler.


    He was not here to work, but for a vacation!


    Everyone was unhappy about this. Those who didn’t approve of Jiang Minng at first suddenly felt that Jiang Minng wasn’t so bad whenpared to the first young master of the Jiang family.


    Jiang Jingchen didn’t care about how they looked at him. He continued to y games at work. Sometimes when the cleaningdy came to clean up, he would chat with her. He was rxed and enjoying himself.


    Song Zhou put on his sses and worked quietly. He nced at his acting young master and scoffed at the people who were gossiping behind his back.


    Jiang Jingchen idled at work because he could.


    Only people who couldn’t were jealous and spent time gossiping about others.


    In school after ss, Tang Beibei and Ruan Qi discussed how they woulde up with a new dance.


    However, they couldn’te up with anything. They were ready to switch tasks in the hope that doing something else would spark their creativity.


    Fu Jin heard about their creative block and gave them a suggestion. “Why don’t you guys make a new video for your page. Managing your ount means creating new content to keep your followers interested.”


    Tang Beibei and Ruan Qi took his advice and prepared to shoot a video. Fu Jin suggested that since they were in school, they could pick a crowded ce.


    Shooting their video in a crowded ce? The two of them felt too embarrassed.


    Fu Jin said, “If you don’t even have the courage to dance in front of a crowd to let others know that you love dancing, why are you dancing at all? Dancing isn’t something shameful, so why should you feel embarrassed?”


    The words of a big shot always made people think deeply.


    The two of them threw away their inhibitions and did a folk dance at the entrance of the cafeteria.


    Immediately, many students crowded around them. They took out their phones, and some of them immediately recognized these dance vloggers.


    “Wow, they’re even more beautiful than in the videos.”


    “Are they really from our school? Such beautiful girls! Do they have boyfriends? Oh my god, their waists are tiny and they have such good figures!”


    “F*ck, I’m about to have a nosebleed. 1 think they are students of the Chinese Medicine. Hurry up and ask them for their WeChat ounts!”


    But some female students frowned. “They’re just showing off their figures here. What a cheap way to attract men’s attention!”


    “They are pretty, sure. Can’t they just focus on their studies? No decent girls will show off like this dancing in public!”


    “They look so cheap strutting about like that. That woman must have had stic surgery, but she doesn’t have a stic face. It’s quite well done.”


    Surrounding Tang Beibei and Ruan Qi were people who praised, criticized, even mocked. There were all kinds of voices.


    Tang Beibei wanted to give up when she heard some of thements, but she knew that they weren’t doing anything wrong and forced herself to finish the dance.


    Ignoring everyone’s gazes, the two of them packed their things and went to lunch.


    After shooting the dance video, they needed to edit it. Song Zhou used to help them with this. Ruan Qi looked at Tang Beibei and asked her to think of a way.


    What could Tang Beibei do? She could only contact Song Zhou and send the video to him for editing.


    Ruan Qi was the one who did this in the past.


    After receiving the video, Song Zhou dropped his work andunched the video editing software on his tablet.


    The phone on Song Zhou’s desk rang and disturbed Jiang Jingchen’s game ying. Jiang Jingchen knocked on his desk to remind Song Zhou but Song Zhou said, “Young Madam has sent me a video to edit.”


    Jiang Jingchen nced at his phone. He didn’t want to disturb Song Zhou who was helping his wife, so he picked up the call.


    The project and problem the caller mentioned were all Greek to Jiang Jingchen. Customer service also had its own lingo, which Jiang Jingchen cared nothing about.


    He just waited for the caller to finish his sentence before he hung up the phone.


    Song Zhou looked at Jiang Jingchen speechlessly.


    Wasn’t his cking off at work too tant? He had already picked up the phone. Couldn’t he wait for the caller to finish saying what he had to say?


    Jiang Jingchen was very calm. “He will definitely call back if he has a problem. If the system doesn’t send the call to you, someone else will pick up and solve his problem. You should focus on your video editing.”


    Song Zhou watched the two women in the video and smiled when he saw Ruan Qi.


    He could feel clearly that the two of them were much morefortable in front of the camera now, and their dancing had improved.


    He was happy for Ruan Qi.


    He worked quickly and finished editing the video. He didn’t send it to Tang Beibei but to another email address after some hesitation.


    He sent it to Ruan Qi.


    He felt that he was tempting fate.


    But he had been feeling terrible this whole time. He wanted to talk to her, even just for once.


    Ruan Qi replied quickly, and Song Zhou opened the email excitedly.


    “Received with thanks.”


    Her reply was polite and emotionless. Song Zhou let out a heavy sigh.


    His fingers tapped on the keyboard. He could type five to six thousand words in an hour when at work, but he wrote only three to four words after ten minutes, and he still wasn’t done.


    He typed and backspaced repeatedly until he ended up with only two words.


    “Good luck!”


    “Thanks.”


    Song Zhou was happy that she still replied to his messages. He stared at the screen for a long time before he sent another message..</font>
