The night came as expected.

The dishes on the Jiang family’s dinner table are all Jiang Ximeng’s favorites.

Lin Meng would also take over her favorite food from time to time.

Jiang Mulin had been on a business trip for five days and just came back today, and went straight back to the old house.

"By the way, Dad, regarding the purchase of building materials for decoration, does the company have any other purchase directions this year?"

The decoration company under Jiang’s is managed by Jiang Mulin.

But the purchase price of pipes last year was not very good.

In addition to real estate, Jiang’s decoration company is also very famous and many people recognize it.

Of course, the main reason is not just that the designers are talented, but more importantly, the decoration price given by the Jiang family is reasonable.

They didn't raise the prices too much just because they are a big company.

In order to make the company more profitable, some materials are purchased in bulk.

The Jiang family has always purchased pipes from the neighboring province, which not only has a slightly higher price, but also has transportation costs.

With this price increase, the company's profits will naturally be reduced.

Jiang Ting picked up another piece of fish for his wife and frowned slightly, "Let's discuss it in the study later."

After listening to the conversation between the father and son, Jiang Ximeng blinked thoughtfully.

Then he asked casually, "Since Grandpa has known Mr. Zhou since childhood, why don't you buy pipes from the Zhou family?"

She only recently got to know the Zhou family and found out that their PVC can be made into pipes, which is also what the decoration company needs.

As soon as she finished speaking, the table fell silent.

After a long while, a low growl was heard.

"Who told you that grandpa knows Zhou Xiong?" Jiang Ting's tone was very bad, and there was a rare sharpness in his eyes.

Jiang Ximeng was startled and replied in a low voice: "No one else..."

There was indeed no one else. Although the photo I saw on Xiaonian’s Day was a bit old, it was not difficult to tell who the other two were from their outlines.

One is Grandpa Tan and the other is Grandpa Zhou.

That's why she was surprised. Since her grandfather and Old Man Zhou had known each other since childhood, why in the previous life, did Old Man Zhou join forces with people inside the company to try to disintegrate Jiang Corporation when the company was in danger?

"you!"

Jiang Ting didn't believe it. It was impossible for his daughter to pay attention to such matters. Someone must have...

"Okay, don't talk about Xiaoxi. It's my fault." Old Master Jiang, who had been silent, put down his chopsticks.

He stood up slowly, sighed, and went upstairs without saying anything else.

"Don't mention this matter again. Our family will not cooperate with the Zhou family. Do you understand?" Jiang Ting looked at his daughter and spoke sternly.

Jiang Ximeng didn't dare to say anything else. She didn't know that the two families had any grudges against each other.

However, what happened today also made her understand why the Zhou family did that in their previous life.

Because of the conflict between the two families, the Zhou family was not without reason, it was all premeditated.

Thinking of this, she nodded to Jiang's father.

"Okay, eat more." Father Jiang also put down his bowl and chopsticks and went upstairs.

"Xiao Xi, it's not easy for your grandfather to take care of our family's business. During this period, there were many frictions not only with his peers, but also with some other companies. Grandpa is old, and all we can do is not mention the people and things that make him unhappy, understand?"

Lin Meng patted the back of her daughter's hand and explained to her patiently.

"I……"

Jiang Ximeng felt extremely guilty.

She had always thought that the Zhou family targeted the Jiang family because of Zhou Ying.

It turns out that since my grandfather’s generation, they have evolved from friends to rivals.

She didn't mean to bring it up.

"Don't feel guilty. Just don't talk about it in the future." After comforting her daughter, Lin Meng went on to do other things.

Now only Jiang Ximeng and Jiang Mulin are left at the dinner table.

"Don't hang your head." Jiang Mulin rubbed his sister's little head.

After all, he worked in the Jiang family company. Although he didn't know about the grudge between his grandfather and Zhou Xiong, he was able to discover some clues over time and knew what to say and what not to say.

"elder brother."

Jiang Mulin swallowed the food in his mouth and responded, "Hmm?"

"You keep an eye on the Zhou family... I mean... what if they do something bad to the Jiang family?"

Jiang Ximeng scratched her fingers. In her previous life, the Zhou family only took action after something happened to their family members.

She wasn't sure whether any specific action would be taken now, but she thought that if she paid more attention she would not make any mistakes, so she said this to Jiang Mulin.

“I’ve never stopped paying attention.”

These words made Jiang Ximeng take a breath.

What this means is that when my grandfather and parents were alive in the previous life, they had always been in confrontation with the Zhou family.

After all, the Zhou family is still slightly inferior to the Jiang family and cannot do anything to the Jiang family.

Family members died one after another, and my brother was in a coma at that time.

Without anyone to compete with Zhou Xiong, they were able to disturb Jiang's shareholders.

How abominable.

It’s just that she is incompetent and can’t compete with him at all.

"Well, don't worry, it's nothing, just some 'war' in the market, it's nothing serious."

Jiang Mulin saw that she was worried, as if there was a dark cloud between her brows that would not dissipate.

He raised his hand and tapped her forehead, "Sister, you just need to live a happy life under our wings. Everyone in the Jiang family will support you."

Jiang Ximeng held Jiang Mulin's hand, blinked her sore eyes, and said, "Yeah."

"But brother, you have to keep an eye on them too, don't let them take advantage of you."

"Ah."

"Brother, eat more, these are all your favorites."

"Ah."

"Brother, you've been tired on your business trip, go to bed early."

"Ah."

"elder brother……"

"what happened again?"

"Can you leave me one chicken wing?"

Jiang Mulin: ...

-

After the weekend, Monday comes.

A big event happened on this day.

Xiaoyou ran away again!

She even sent a message before leaving, asking Jiang Ximeng if she wanted to make an appointment.

Jiang Ximeng: ...

She didn't dare to answer because a man was leaning against her desk. He was sitting so high up that he could see everything.

"Ha ha……"

Jiang Ximeng quickly smiled awkwardly at the man to prove her "innocence".

She didn't dare not explain. Tan Yan's eyes were so gloomy that tears seemed to come out of them, as if she had already run away.

Tsk!

She just ran away once.

How come he was sentenced to death for the first time?

"Ring ring ring..."

Before Tan Yan could say anything, Jiang Ximeng's phone rang.

"Hey……"

"Xiao Xi, have you seen Xiao You? Has she contacted you?"

Jiang Ximeng thought of the last sentence in Xiaoyou's message, [Don't tell your brother! ]

Without blushing or panicking, he lied, "No."

The person on the other end of the phone seemed very disappointed, and before hanging up, he added, "If Xiaoyou contacts you, remember to notify me first."

"cough……"

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Ximeng cleared her throat and poked the man next to her.

"Mr. Tan, can I take a leave?"

The advertising department has been making good progress recently, with some tasks completed ahead of schedule, and there has been nothing to do these days.

So...she wanted to go over and accompany Xiaoyou.

I also want to know how Jiang Mulin could make such a good-tempered person angry again!
