Mr.CEO Looks Exactly the Same as My Son!-Chapter 559: Not Making a Losing Deal
In the message box, there was a text from an unfamiliar number, sent at 3 PM yesterday.
She opened it, and there were only a few words.
"Target in action, outside the villa, monitoring."
After reading the message, there was no reply. She put the phone aside, lifted her gaze, and stared into Jiang Shihan’s eyes for a while before speaking, "You came to see me today? What do you want me to do for you?"
"To get your father out?" She curled her lips with a cold sneer, "You should know, if Uncle Jiang hadn’t done those things, how could he have been caught?"
Hearing his words, Jiang Shihan’s face turned a bit unpleasant. Although she knew this fact well, hearing him say it still made her feel somewhat uncomfortable...
However, she was now seeking help from others, so she couldn’t show a bad attitude. She suppressed her emotions and said, "No... I’m not asking you to get my father out."
"Then what is it?"
They locked eyes, and there was a silence for a full minute, "Could you... please save the Jiang Family?"
"Save the Jiang Family?"
He lightly fiddled with his nails and spoke nonchalantly, "You know, I am a businessman, I don’t make losing deals. By saving the Jiang Family, what benefit do I get?"
He stood up, propping himself with one hand on the table, looking down at her, "The Jiang Family is facing bankruptcy due to poor management; saving it now won’t save it forever."
He shifted his gaze away from her, unapologetically took off his suit jacket and hung it on the back of the chair, then walked over to the floor-to-ceiling window to look at the view outside.
Watching him walk to the window and ignore her, she felt a bit aggrieved for a moment...
After all, she used to be a wealthy young lady, and there was never a day she had to ask for help. If it were her old self, she would have turned and walked away upon hearing such words...
Yet her legs seemed glued there, and she lacked the courage to walk out.
If she wasn’t truly out of options, she wouldn’t have come here to humiliate herself. In the past few days, her uncle went to many places, seeking help from many people, but they all stood by and watched.
No one was willing to give the Jiang Family a hand, but this man was different. As long as he was willing to help, there would still be a chance...
She stood up and walked towards him, stopping about a meter away from Beichen Rui.
Speaking almost in a pleading tone, "Rui... could you, for the sake of our past engagement, help me this once?" 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
"As long as you’re willing to help, I’ll agree to whatever you ask of me in the future. I’m begging you, help the Jiang Family this once, okay?"
The man didn’t respond to her words, his gaze fixed outside the window, lost in thought.
Her hands clenched into fists, and seeing him unmoved, she felt a momentary urge to turn away and leave.
But in the end, she held on.
Just when she was about to hold on no longer, the man, who hadn’t spoken for a long time, lazily uttered a single word, "Okay."
Hearing his word, Jiang Shihan almost couldn’t hold back a cheer. With great effort, she controlled her emotions, covered her mouth, and her eyes involuntarily turned red around the edges.
She knew it; even if Beichen Rui was heartless, with the words being said this far, he wouldn’t stand by and do nothing...
She laughed through her tears, "Rui... thank you."
Beichen Rui turned around, gave her a faint look, his tone remaining utterly indifferent, "No, need."
He returned to his desk, sat down, pulled out a document from the computer, and without even glancing at her, said, "Ten days."
Jiang Shihan understood, he was speaking to her; when he said ten days... it meant that within ten days, the Jiang Family would be saved.
