Chapter 590 - Wanted to Chase Jiang Yu Out of the Research Institute

“Now, get the security guards to chase her out as soon as possible. We don’t want to embarrass ourselves here!”

Kong Zhihui ordered, “Don’t lower the image of our research institute. Don’t just let anyone come in. What will other people who have important matters to attend to think? Do they think that we don’t do our jobs and don’t do anything with the money they give us?”

These words were a little too harsh.

Especially after Kong Zhihui finished speaking, she glanced at the man on the sofa.

She seemed to have some impression of this person.

Moreover, he was wearing a custom-made coat. One look and one could tell that it was expensive. He must have some status in Beijing.

Kong Zhihui’s expression softened. “I’m sorry for making a fool of myself.”

Jian Hanshen spread his hands and said indifferently, “It’s alright. Take your time. Don’t worry about me.”

He even looked at the watch on his wrist and said casually, “Dr. Jiang’s morning meeting should be over soon, right?”

Kong Zhihui’s eyes narrowed.

Jiang Yu yawned.

She really didn’t expect that she would encounter such a troublesome matter even though it hadn’t been easy for her to come to the research institute.

She could only blame Jiang Jingnian for being too charming.

When An Yimin was in the hospital, Jiang Jingnian would wander around the hospital from time to time, attracting a lot of young ladies.

Moreover, Jiang Jingnian’s friendly attitude made An Yimin say something like, “If I had a daughter, I would marry her to Dr. Jiang.”

Jiang Yu: ??? Wait a minute.

Later, An Yimin also realized that he had said something wrong. Moreover, after he found out that Jiang Jingnian was Jiang Yu’s second brother, he shut up for a long time and did not dare to Look Jiang Jingnian and Jiang Yu in the eye.

Jiang Yu took out her phone.

She had somehow attracted a barking mad woman. It was better to let the person in question handle it.

She dialed Jiang Jingnian’s number.

Kong Zhihui sneered, “Why? Are you calling your family for help?

“That’s fine. After all, a child has encountered a problem and can’t solve it by herself. She can only seek help from her family. Isn’t that right, child?”

Kong Zhihui was not worried.

She was a guest of influential families in the capital, such as the Qin family and the Feng family.

Because people were old, rich, and powerful, they hoped to live longer. Who would refuse to deal with a doctor with superb medical skills?

Except for the Jian family.

When she went, Old Master Jian was already sick in bed. The new head of the Jian family did not come out to see her. Later, Old Master Jian’s illness became more serious. She was not confident and did not go back.

However, she also knew that the Jian family did not have a daughter, and the relatives of the other families were nothing to her.

Therefore, even if this little girl was a rich second generation, she was just an ordinary family member and did not account for much.

On the sofa, Jian Hanshen crossed his legs leisurely. When he saw Jiang Yu make a call, the interest in his eyes intensified.

…

In the meeting room.

The meeting was almost over. Just as Jiang Jingnian was about to say a few simple words to end the meeting, his phone rang.

When he saw the number, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he picked up quickly, as if he was afraid that the other party would hang up.

Jiang Jingnian still had a smile on his face. “Why are you calling me?”

Even his voice was gentle.

Although Dr. Jiang’s expression was usually warm, it was still very different from this moment.

There was always a sense of alienation in his friendliness. In fact, he kept a certain distance from everyone. But now, the joy at the corners of his eyes and brows was unmistakable.

Everyone was guessing who was calling.

Could it be…Dr. Kong?

Dr. Kong had not come this morning. Could that be such a possibility?

Someone said something on the other side. When everyone saw Jiang Jingnian, they saw his expression instantly darken and heard his voice fall. “Who wants to chase you away?”

Everyone: ??? Hmm? There was someone who wanted to chase Dr. Kong away?

Jiang Jingnian: “I’ll be right down.”

Everyone: !!! Is Dr. Jiang going to save the damsel in distress?!

They looked at Jiang Jingnian and hastily said, “The meeting is over.” Then, they hurriedly left.

Although everyone wanted to watch the show, they didn’t dare to follow Jiang Jingnian openly.

…

On the other end, Jiang Yu hung up the phone.

Kong Zhihui said disdainfully, “Do you think we have the time to wait for you to find someone?”

Jiang Yu said casually, “He’ll be here soon.”

Kong Zhihui said nonchalantly, “No matter who you call, kid, it’s useless for me to tell you the truth. It seems that you still don’t know the status of our research institute in Beijing. I don’t blame you for your lack of knowledge, but after today, you’ll know what a ridiculous mistake you’ve made.

“It doesn’t matter. These things will happen to you when you grow up. You’ve learned a lesson in advance, and we won’t charge you for your tuition. You’ve earned it.”

Kong Zhihui’s tone was so proud that it seemed like it was overflowing from her words.

Jiang Yu counted the time in her heart.

One minute was enough to go from upstairs to downstairs.

If he didn’t make it here in one minute, why would she invite him to make potstickers? She could just do it without him.

Kong Zhihui was still talking, “Why have you lowered your head and don’t dare look at me? Afraid? It’s not too late for you to regret it now. There’s no need to make things too ugly…”

Jiang Yu suddenly looked up. “Are all older women as long-winded as you?”

Kong Zhihui blurted out, “Of course not. Wait… Who are you calling long-winded? Who’s old?”

Jiang Yu: “I’m talking about you, Auntie.”

Just as Kong Zhihui was about to flare up, there was a ‘ding’ from the elevator.

Following that was the sound of hurried and powerful footsteps.

Kong Zhihui raised her head subconsciously and saw a tall man with long legs and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses walking over quickly with a cold look on his face.

She called out, “Jingnian, why did you come down?

“Did you come down to pick me up when you found out I was here?”

Jiang Jingnian looked at her coldly.

Kong Zhihui had been with Jiang Jingnian for a long time, but she had never seen such a cold look in his eyes.

Her heart skipped a beat, and she whispered, “Did something happen? Why do you look so scary?”

Jiang Jingnian curled his lips, but the smile didn’t reach his eyes.

He said coldly, “I came all the way here to pick you up? Do you think you’re worthy?”

Kong Zhihui was stunned.

Why… Would Jingnian say such a thing?

How could Jiang Jingnian say such cold words?

She bit her lip. “Jingnian, what’s wrong? Did the meeting today not go well?”

Yes, that must be the case.

Jingnian was angry because she was absent and others had gossiped about her.

Kong Zhihui blamed herself. “Jingnian, I’m sorry. I took a leave of absence this morning and didn’t help you.

“I promise you that I won’t take a leave of absence again. Even if I had stayed up all night doing research, I will not miss any meetings and make things difficult for you. Don’t be angry with me, okay?”

Jiang Jingnian clenched his hands and shook his head slightly.

“It seems that you have a misunderstanding about me and think that I have a good temper. You are terribly mistaken..”
