The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life

Chapter 1684: Chapter 683: The So-Called ”Truth” (3)

He had no plans for this birthday, and even deliberately avoided contact with them, so everything seemed to be explained.

Jiang Qingkui and Ding Yi looked at each other in silence, no longer in the mood for confrontation, or rather, it was not the time yet.

The pressing matter at hand...

”First, find Zhou Wang.”

Ding Yi said lightly, ”If he thinks that escaping can solve everything, then I’m really disappointed in him!”

After speaking, Ding Yi took out his phone and turned around, not sure who he was contacting.

Jiang Qingkui did not respond, but immediately picked up the landline on the table and started contacting the group’s security room. After all, Zhou Wang left from the company, and everything should be traceable under surveillance...

As the two busily searched for Zhou Wang’s whereabouts, there was suddenly some commotion outside the office.

”President Qi, President Qi, Mr. Jiang is receiving guests inside, you cannot...”

The office door was suddenly pushed open, and a woman with golden-framed glasses and a mature, cold charm strode in, followed by Assistant Chen, who failed to stop her in time.

The woman who walked in was none other than Qi Jiayi.

Jiang Qingkui’s ”list” of the three most threatening women was now complete.

”President Qi?”

Seeing Qi Jiayi’s unexpected presence, Jiang Qingkui momentarily suppressed her many emotions, gesturing for Assistant Chen to leave and then spoke out in surprise.

After formally taking over the Hong Kong Island branch, Qi Jiayi’s current full title in the company is ”Vice General Manager of Wangzhou Group, Legal Director, General Manager of Hong Kong Island Branch.”

She replaced Xu Wenqian, who was also a vice general manager, becoming the nominal second person in the group, with real power second only to Jiang Qingkui.

But adhering to the ”two kings cannot meet” principle, Qi Jiayi mainly operates in Hong Kong Island currently, and the key is that if she were to come to the group, she should have notified beforehand.

”Mr. Jiang, I want to know what happened to Mr. Zhou... I can’t contact him.”

Qi Jiayi seemed to be in a bad mood as well, asking straightforwardly as soon as she entered.

”Ha, just check online and you’ll know.”

Jiang Qingkui wasn’t surprised upon hearing she came for this issue, but merely responded with a cold laugh.

Qi Jiayi was taken aback and, after glancing at Ding Yi and Jiang Mo in the office, sat on the sofa and took out her phone.

During the process, Qi Jiayi’s expression kept changing, sometimes realizing, sometimes confused, sometimes disdainful, and sometimes frowning in thought.

After an unknown amount of time, Qi Jiayi looked up, ”Something’s not right.”

”What’s not right?”

Jiang Qingkui was too lazy to maintain superficial courtesy with Qi Jiayi and continued to sneer, ”Do you think this is all fake? You should know what kind of man Mr. Zhou is.”

Qi Jiayi heard the hidden sarcasm in Jiang Qingkui’s words, but she had no intention of retaliating, just shook her head and said:

”I mean something’s not right... Just over an hour ago, Mr. Zhou sent me a message. I saw it just now because I was busy with work... The gist of the message is that Mr. Zhou hopes I can handle various emergencies in the group during his absence, mainly in legal affairs. He also said that a formal authorization document would be sent to me via email...”

Jiang Qingkui said indifferently, ”What does that prove?”

”Mr. Jiang, don’t you think this ’entrusting’ tone is unusual? Even if he anticipated online rumors, would mere gossip make him want to quit?”

Jiang Qingkui frowned. Earlier, she was immersed in negative emotions, but now she also sensed something was amiss.

Indeed, with Zhou Wang’s carefree nature, he couldn’t possibly be troubled by these rumors.

”Email? Wait a moment...”

Recalling Qi Jiayi’s words, Jiang Qingkui suddenly thought of something.

She quickly went to the desk again, turned the screen back on, and opened her email.

Sure enough, at the top of the inbox, there was an email sent ten minutes ago, with the sender displayed as ”Yunshangyun Law Firm’s Magic City Headquarters.”

Jiang Qingkui hesitated for a moment before opening the email.

”Dear Ms. Jiang Qingkui, entrusted by Mr. Zhou Wang... granting Ms. Jiang Qingkui decision-making power over major affairs of the Wangzhou Group, authority to convene board meetings, and exclusive authority over personnel appointments... Please click the link below to sign the electronic contract.”
