You're dumping me, huh? Fine, then I'll just pick up the school beauty and make her my wif

"What do you think their goal is?" Jiang Che asked.

Lin Zhengyang pondered for a moment and slowly said, "I dare not make any wild guesses, but the fact that Zhao Guodong was able to obtain the 3 billion yuan infrastructure coordination rights for the Binhai New City project this time must be due to Zhou Yazhi's support."

"And what about Ye Yunjin..."

He looked up at Jiang Che and said cautiously, "One of Yingheng Capital's main businesses is acquiring the core assets of distressed companies."

Acquire core assets.

First, have Zhao Guodong create embezzled funds and embezzle funds in the Southwest branch to create a financial hole.

Then, through Zhou Yazhi, the 3 billion yuan project funds for Binhai New City were laundered out, further draining the branch company's cash flow.

When Jiang Sheng Group's headquarters discovers that the Southwest Branch is insolvent, Ye Yunjin will reappear as a white knight, acquiring the Southwest Branch's core assets at a low price.

It was clear that a small branch office in the southwest was not Ye Yunjin's ultimate goal.

Her target is Jiangsheng Group, located in Beijing!

Ye Yunjin wants to swallow up the Jiang family and make the entire country listen only to her Ye family!

Lin Zhengyang felt a chill run down his spine.

He used to think Zhao Guodong was just bold, daring to move the group's money out of the company.

But now, after hearing Jiang Che's explanation, he realized that what he had seen before was just a small crack on the ice.

What's truly hidden underwater is an entire iceberg.

"Young Master Jiang, I have some things here."

Lin Zhengyang then took out a stack of documents from his briefcase.

"These companies are the outsourcing enterprises that have had the most frequent interactions with the Southwest Branch in the past two years."

"Besides Ruichang Construction, Zhaofeng Engineering, and Heng'an Technology, there are four other small companies."

"They appear to be scattered across building materials, labor, and equipment maintenance sectors, but their invoicing dates, contract templates, and the branches where the receiving accounts are located all highly overlap."

Jiang Che took the documents and flipped through them page by page.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Zhengyang continued, "Also, Zhao Guodong doesn't usually use explicit terms like 'transfer' on the phone to reveal his true intentions; he uses code words."

"As for the code words... Zhao Guodong is a very cautious person and has never used the same code words twice. He always creates a new set of code words before each transaction."

"I've also kept relevant records. I'll organize them when I get home tonight and send them to you by tomorrow morning at the latest."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Che closed the documents in his hand, nodded, and said, "If there are too many, don't worry, take your time to organize them, and give them to me by next Monday."

Lin Zhengyang responded and put the documents into his briefcase.

"Young Master Jiang, there's one more thing."

Lin Zhengyang hesitated for a moment, "Zhao Guodong has been waiting for confirmation from Hong Kong recently."

"Confirm what?"

"I don't know the specifics, but from what he said, as long as Ye Yunjin agrees to provide an offshore account channel, the first prepayment from Binhai New City can be transferred immediately."

Offshore account access?

Once the 3 billion prepayment is deposited into an offshore account, it becomes very difficult to recover it.

Did Zhao Guodong say approximately when confirmation would be possible?

"No," Lin Zhengyang shook his head, "but I estimate it won't be long."

"Zhou Yazhi went to Hong Kong these past few days, and she was probably discussing this matter."

At this point, Jiang Che already had Lin Zhengyang in his grasp, and with Liu Anping's informants in Hong Kong, tracking the flow of funds was no problem.

But now that the operation is closed, only Zhao Guodong and Jiang Dahe can be caught, and Ye Yunjin can completely distance herself from the situation.

This is not what Jiang Che wanted to see.

"Young Master Jiang, should I report this to President Jiang?"

"No need." Jiang Che stood up. "You can proceed according to the original plan for now."

Lin Zhengyang was taken aback. "You mean...?"

"Continue to be Zhao Guodong's mole." Jiang Che looked at him. "Report to Shen Yi as usual."

"But……"

"Zhao Guodong wants to confirm, right? Then let him confirm."

Jiang Che said casually, "Just tell Shen Yi that I've given up investigating the Southwest Branch."

Lin Zhengyang was slightly taken aback, and opened his mouth, "This... will Zhao Guodong believe it?"

"Why don't you believe me?" Jiang Che retorted. "How long have I been interning at the company? It's perfectly normal for a student who just graduated high school to get discouraged and give up after two weeks of investigation without finding anything."

Lin Zhengyang remained silent for a few seconds.

Right.

In Zhao Guodong's eyes, Jiang Che was just a young man who had just come of age. How much patience and skill could he possibly have?

"But Zhao Guodong is a very suspicious person. He might not believe everything he hears from Shen Yi."

"So you have to keep acting." Jiang Che walked to the window. "The more afraid a person is, the more real they seem."

"Zhao Guodong will only think that you are still being held hostage by your son's illness and that 800,000 yuan transfer."

Lin Zhengyang lowered his head, looking at his slightly trembling hands.

There's really no need to act.

Because he was genuinely afraid.

She was afraid that Zhao Guodong would find out, she was also afraid that her son would get into trouble, and she was even more afraid that if she made a wrong move, she would lose everything.

"Lin Zhengyang".

Jiang Che's indifferent voice came from the window.

Lin Zhengyang looked up and heard Jiang Che say, "If Zhao Guodong suddenly contacts you, you must remember one thing."

"Please speak."

Jiang Che turned around and looked at his face: "You need to act hesitant and resistant, you need to be afraid."

"When he asks you to do something, first refuse, then reluctantly agree."

"This is more like the original Lin Zhengyang."

"Also, remember to find a way to make a backup copy of the accounts for the Southwest branch."

"In this way, Zhao Guodong will not only fail to discover any clues, but even if he wants to destroy the evidence at that time, it will be in vain."

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhengyang was secretly surprised.

He never expected that this young man, who had just started college, would be so meticulous.

"Okay, Young Master Jiang, if there's nothing else, I'll head back now." Lin Zhengyang picked up his briefcase. "I'll start working on the matter you assigned tonight."

"Okay, go ahead."

Lin Zhengyang bowed slightly, then turned and walked towards the door.

Just as Lin Zhengyang was about to pull the door open and leave the private room, he suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at Jiang Che.

"Young Master Jiang."

"What's wrong?"

Lin Zhengyang bowed deeply and solemnly: "Thank you for being willing to save my son."

……

Jiang Che returned to the villa at almost nine o'clock.

Only a floor lamp was lit in the living room, its warm yellow light spreading across the wooden floor and dispelling a small patch of darkness in the entryway.

Jiang Che called out to Su Qinghe as he changed his shoes.

Seeing that no one paid any attention to him, he guessed that his girlfriend was probably in the bedroom preparing to rest, so he went upstairs.

Sure enough, as soon as Jiang Che stepped onto the stairs, he heard faint piano music coming from the second floor.
