Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 732: Chapter 732: Old Master Loo’s Scolding

Old Master Loo was truly furious. After expending so much manpower, financial resources, and various connections to lift his son-in-law up, and now that he had risen to the rank of commander, not yet reaping any benefits from this position, he had already been slapped on the left cheek. With such an incident, how was he supposed to climb higher?

With Jiang Conghe and the Loo Family becoming inseparable and forming a unit, if he couldn’t ascend, neither could the Loo Family. That’s why Old Master Loo felt such annoyance.

”Father-in-law, what should be done now?” Jiang Conghe asked, taking a deep breath.

Old Master Loo glanced at him and said, ”What else can you do? Just do whatever those above you want you to do. The other party is not some low-ranking soldier, but a captain with a military rank.”

Jiang Conghe choked, his expression extremely ugly.

”The situation is tense right now, this setback, whether you like it or not, has already been suffered. You can only keep a cool head, don’t rush. Once you’re stable, a mere captain, can’t you handle him?” Old Master Loo added.

Jiang Conghe replied, ”Yes!”

”During this period, just keep a low profile and first deal with the problems at hand, especially Qingqing, who needs to be cured. As for Shufen, also offer a few words of persuasion. Whether she continues as a team director or not doesn’t matter, wait for this controversy to blow over, and then you can transfer her somewhere else,” Old Master Loo, with his hands behind his back, instructed.

”I understand. Qingqing has also come to terms with it and is actively cooperating with the treatment,” Jiang Conghe said, sighing with relief.

Upon hearing this, Old Master Loo’s brows furrowed slightly. He knew the child’s temperament, especially the Loo family’s temperament—would she be so compliant?

However, he never paid much attention to the affairs of young love. Having endured such a blow, it was good that she had come to terms with it. As for that Qi surname, hmph! There would be a day to deal with him!

”Qingqing is a good child; she was just misguided for a while. Now that things have come to this point, you shouldn’t blame her anymore. She’s still young and doesn’t understand much,” Old Master Loo always protected his granddaughter and said to Jiang Conghe, ”The child is already suffering from her illness; as her parents, you should show her more love and care.”

”Yes!”

With his hands behind his back, Old Master Loo paced back and forth in the study, his thoughts returning to Jiang Conghe, ”As for Director Wang’s future retirement, it will be either you or Ning Gang who succeeds him. Now that you have encountered this issue, even if you have lost a move, you must be cautious at all times, and not give him any more leverage over you.”

Jiang Conghe’s heart shuddered, ”Father-in-law, I understand.”

”Hm!” Old Master Loo was very satisfied with his attitude and said, ”Once this matter is over, you come with me to visit Gao Hongbo.”

Jiang Conghe was startled, ”Gao Hongbo? Isn’t he about to retire?”

”Don’t let his title as secretary fool you. When he was young, he saved Director Wang’s father,” Old Master Loo said with an indifferent glance.

Jiang Conghe was no fool and instantly grasped the key point, ”I understand. Thank you, father-in-law, for the comprehensive planning.”

Old Master Loo snorted, ”You are my son-in-law. If it weren’t for Shufen insisting on marrying you, I would not have agreed.” Thinking of the grievances his daughter had suffered before, he said, ”I heard that your son from before has come to see you?”

Jiang Conghe’s heart tightened slightly as he carefully replied, ”The boy came to show his filial piety.”

Old Master Loo sneered, ”That is to say, you intend to acknowledge him again?”

Jiang Conghe lowered his head, ”There’s no question of acknowledging or not acknowledging, he is of the Chiang family’s bloodline.”

Old Master Loo’s expression darkened as he said, ”As long as you know what you’re doing. Just don’t become the foolish Mr. Dong Guo, nurturing a wolf that could harm others and yourself!”

Jiang Conghe kept silent. While he felt very uncomfortable with his father-in-law’s reprimand, thinking to himself—what Mr. Dong Guo, what wolf—that was his son, Jiang Conghe’s son!
