Indeed, money still works. Wang can be considered trustworthy. Seeing that Jiang Wen and the others were no longer helping Zhang Jiao, he transferred the money over.
He then looked at the dumbfounded Zhang Jiao beside him, his voice with a hint of pleasure: "Did you see that? This is what you call reliance? It's not as useful as my money."
"You, you guys." Zhang Jiao looked at Jiang Wen and Li Mu in disbelief, her beautiful big eyes full of doubt and anger.
She didn't understand why the two people who had promised to protect her would abandon her for money. She had always trusted these two people so much, without even a hint of suspicion.
But this trust was shattered at this moment, and her heart turned cold in an instant.
"Why, why are you doing this..." Zhang Jiao murmured.
"We're not..." Li Mu wanted to say something, but Jiang Wen stopped him with a look.
His expression was complicated and somewhat anxious, as if he really wanted to go and help Zhang Jiao. However, without Jiang Wen's permission, he didn't dare to make any excessive moves.
"Haha, this scene is really good to watch. Is this what you dared to come here relying on? My lovely Ms. Zhang." Wang said, reaching out to pinch Zhang Jiao's cheek, only to be coldly brushed away by Zhang Jiao, who looked at him with disdain.
"Do you think you're so great just because you have a few stinky coins?" Zhang Jiao said coldly.
"The fact is that having money is great. Come with me, so you don't have to suffer anymore. As long as you listen to me obediently, your company will come back, everything of yours will come back. Now you don't have anyone you can rely on. You should think about it carefully."
Wang's words seemed to have moved Zhang Jiao. She gave Jiang Wen and Li Mu a final, despondent look, and said through gritted teeth, "I trusted the wrong people, I hate you!"
"Zhang!" Li Mu stepped forward anxiously, wanting to say something more, but Jiang Wen grabbed him and covered his mouth to stop him from speaking.
Wang walked out of the office triumphantly with Zhang Jiao. The sound of footsteps slowly faded away, until only Jiang Wen and Li Mu remained.
"Brother Jiang, this, why is this?" Li Mu said in a low voice, his eyes red. "We agreed to help her, agreed to support her no matter what. Why, why did we stand by at this crucial moment? Is it just for money?!"
Li Mu's voice grew louder and louder, and Jiang Wen could feel the unwillingness and anger in his heart.
However, Jiang Wen was not angry, but looked at Li Mu calmly and said, "That's four hundred million, don't you want it?"
"What are you talking about, Brother Jiang! I admired you so much! So, you would also sell your conscience for these vulgar things! I misjudged you, misjudged you!" Li Mu shouted loudly.
"Four hundred million, do you want it?" Jiang Wen asked again.
"I don't want it!! I wouldn't care even if it was four billion! I just want to be an upright person! To be worthy of my own conscience!" Li Mu gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and walked towards the office door.
Jiang Wen held his shoulder and said calmly, "Where are you going?"
"I'm going to save Zhang Jiao, I want to tell her. No matter what, I want to tell her that I will stand by her side!" Li Mu said sharply.
"Wang is very powerful, you will lose your life if you go," Jiang Wen added.
"Death is death! Although I don't have your supernatural powers, I don't want to be a coward!" Li Mu shouted at Jiang Wen with all his strength. He was so anxious that tears welled up in his eyes, and he kept trying to chase outside.
"Alright, stop making a fuss. Look who this is." Jiang Wen released his shoulder, and Li Mu staggered forward. Then he heard Jiang Wen's words and turned to look.
He saw Zhang Jiao, who should have left with Wang, standing in the office, covering her mouth and looking at him with tears in her eyes.
Li Mu's mind went blank for a moment, and the long-lost voice of Grandpa Yaogu came from his ear: "Boy, you do have some backbone. Grandpa Yaogu didn't misjudge you, hahaha."
"This, what's going on?" Li Mu looked at Jiang Wen blankly.
"Isn't it simple? She never left." Jiang Wen pointed at Zhang Jiao and smiled. He sat at the desk, took out a tea set from his storage bag, summoned a Samadhi True Fire with a snap of his fingers, brewed the tea at a suitable temperature, poured himself a full cup after the tea was ready, and quietly listened to Yaogu telling Li Mu everything that had happened.
After hearing these things, Li Mu finally came to his senses and looked at Jiang Wen with a guilty expression: "So, the one who left with that person just now was Lord Bai Jing?"
"It is indeed Lord Bai Jing, and only after she transforms can Wang not see through her," Yaogu said smugly.
"So why did you hide it from me?" Li Mu looked at Jiang Wen in confusion.
Just then, Zhang Jiao came over and stared at him affectionately, making him blush and turn his head away. Only then did she let out a light, bell-like laugh: "Because Brother Jiang said that if you knew about this plan, you probably wouldn't act so realistically. You are too easy for people to see through, so we kept it from you."
"I, you..." Li Mu didn't know what to say for a moment. His emotions were complicated, and he was also a little embarrassed when he looked at Jiang Wen again.
"I'm sorry, Brother Jiang, I, I said such harsh words just now," Li Mu apologized in a low voice.
"It doesn't matter, aren't these all your heartfelt words?" Jiang Wen joked. "The way you were just now was seen by Ms. Zhang."
"I, alas." Li Mu finally chose to give up defending himself. He calmed down and looked at Zhang Jiao seriously. "It's good that you're okay."
"I'm fine," Zhang Jiao said softly. "Actually, I agreed to this plan. The reason why Brother Jiang asked for money just now was to help me rebuild my company. He gave me part of that money to cover the losses of the company."
"I misunderstood Brother Jiang," Li Mu said guiltily again.
"Don't be so sentimental," Jiang Wen said slowly while drinking tea. "I will also take my share of the money, you didn't misunderstand me too much, I did covet the money."
"Ah?!" Li Mu was stunned again after hearing this.
Jiang Wen chuckled, shook his head, and looked outside. He ignored the interaction between Li Mu and Zhang Jiao, looked at the round moon in the sky, and thought that Bai Jing should have arrived at the other party's lair.
"I hope they can withstand the shock," Jiang Wen muttered to himself.
Just as he thought, the monster Wang drove Bai Jing all the way to the Wuye Consortium building.
On the way, he excitedly commented on human nature, saying that humans are not good people.
Bai Jing sat in the back seat, meditating and resting, too lazy to pay attention to a small monster like Wang. She was now afraid that she would accidentally slap Wang to death in the car. After all, Jiang Wen was still waiting for her to bring back useful information.
As for the monster Wang, he never noticed whether this so-called 'Zhang Jiao' had any problems, only thinking that she had been stimulated after being betrayed.
When they arrived at the Wuye Building, Wang got out and opened the car door, making a gesture of invitation to Bai Jing.
Bai Jing lazily crawled out, stretched, and glanced at Wang gracefully.
She stepped out of the car, her aura gradually rising. With one hand on her hip, she looked at the building and smiled, "Let's go, take me to see how much Chi Yao is left."
Wang was stunned in place when he heard this, and stuttered as he looked at Bai Jing: "You, what are you talking about? How do you know about Chi Yao!"
"Where did I hear it from? Hehe, look, who am I?" 'Zhang Jiao' smiled mysteriously, and her face began to change.
Then a huge fox head appeared, and those Netherfire-like blue eyes stared at Wang.
"Lord, Lord Bai Jing!" Wang collapsed on the ground and shouted in a broken voice.
