After Becoming a Spare Tire, I Was Targeted by the Villain and the Male Lead at the Same Time

first person she thought of relying on was definitely Xu Chenghao – although Ruan Chenxuan was very jealous, he had to admit that if he had been taken care of for twenty years, he would also rely on this person.

 

But the problem was that after testing him, Xu Chenghao insisted that he had never seen An Rouyu and had no knowledge of the matter.

 

How could this be possible… An Rouyu didn’t have the ability to disappear so cleanly on her own; someone must have helped her.

 

Could it be Jing Yicheng?

 

Ruan Chenxuan suppressed his doubts and decided to talk to him another day to see how he would react.

 

Now that his attempts to probe had failed, he could only give up and turn to talk to Xu Chenghao about the project they were meeting for.

These days, the Jiang Group has split into two teams.
One was facing the Xu Group, telling Li Nian that someone was trying to intercept their deal and asking if they could cooperate, with various hints and price increases.
The other was facing the Ruan Group, telling them that the Xu Group had raised their offer and hoping that Ruan Chenxuan would also show sincerity and lower their percentage.

Sometimes people are like this – greedy and wanting to swallow everything at once, but they have to bear the risk of choking to death.

Ruan Chenxuan has had too many frustrating things these days and has completely lost patience.
He came this time to discuss the final steps of their cooperation with Xu Chenghao.

Naturally, Xu Chenghao was willing to cooperate.
After all, they were also busy, too busy to spare time to act and be abused.
It was completely self-inflicted punishment, and Li Nian had exploded several times.

So after the two discussed and ended their meeting, Xu Chenghao went back and announced in the meeting that they would give up cooperation with the Jiang Group because the Jiang Group was asking for too high a price.

Li Nian was the first to applaud.
God knows he was almost driven crazy by the people from the Jiang Group these days.
At first, they were coaxing him with kind words, but when their true colors were revealed, they became arrogant and dismissive.
They were like the emperor turning over the palace ladies with a strong sense of superiority when answering phone calls.

If he didn’t know that there was still a chance for them to be proven wrong, Li Nian would have exploded and smashed his phone long ago.

Fortunately, he finally saw the light at the end of the tunnel!

Li Nian raised his hand and said, “If Jiang’s family contacts us again, just leave it to me.”

Xu Chenghao nodded: “Okay, it’s all yours.”

Li Nian made a gesture of victory, looking forward to receiving a call from the Jiang Group as soon as possible.
They had been getting stronger one after another, and now it was time to see who was the real boss!

After a morning of meetings and appointments, when Xu Chenghao returned to his office area, it was already 2:30 in the afternoon.
He collapsed into his chair, exhausted, but before he could rest, someone suddenly appeared in front of him.

Xu Chenghao sat up straight: “What’s up?”

Jing Yicheng was silent for a few seconds before handing him a piece of paper: “Here’s the design you wanted.
Take a look and see if there’s anything that needs to be changed.”

“So fast.” Xu Chenghao eagerly took the paper and was stunned by the intricate internal structure.
He couldn’t understand it!

Jing Yicheng sat across from him, waiting for a response: “What do you think?”

Xu Chenghao frowned and stared at the paper for a long time before asking, “How is this used?”

Jing Yicheng pointed to the side: “You can connect it directly to the central management system.
Once you set the instructions based on your own needs, it will work on schedule.”

 

Xu Chenghao nodded with a look that suggested he understood but actually understood nothing: “Oh… what about the management system?”

Jing Yicheng: “It’s still in the development stage; it may take some time to complete.”

Xu Chenghao: “Oh, it looks good.”

Jing Yicheng: “If there’s no need for further changes, I’ll have them manufacture it directly.”

Xu Chenghao: “Alright.”

Anyway, he couldn’t understand it… To be honest, did they really need to show others the precise internal structure of this kind of thing? He thought that having the external shape was enough.

Xu Chenghao flipped through the paper several times before finding the mechanical design, taking a picture, and sending it to the designer for review.

Throughout this process, Jing Yicheng remained sitting across from him, his gaze calm and focused, with a rare seriousness.

Xu Chenghao looked up at him curiously and asked, “Is there anything else?”

Jing Yicheng replied seemingly casually, “No, not really… I just received a call from Ruan Chenxuan who suddenly came to see me and said he wanted to talk to me.
Can you guess what it’s about?”

Xu Chenghao packed up the paper and didn’t notice anything wrong: “It must be about An Rouyu, he came to see me too.”

 

Jing Yicheng said with a sigh: “I was wondering why he suddenly contacted me, turns out you two had already met.”

 

Xu Chenghao felt that there was more to the story and looked up at him for a few seconds before realizing that he had misunderstood.
He explained directly: “He actually contacted me to test me and see if I had hidden An Rouyu.
I denied it and didn’t say anything else.”

 

Jing Yicheng: “Is that all?”

 

Xu Chenghao: “That’s all.”

 

Jing Yicheng: “You swear on the chili?!”

 

Xu Chenghao: “…… en, I swear on the chili.”

 

Only then was Jing Yicheng satisfied and left.
He sent a message to Ruan Chenxuan when he returned to his office area, “Sorry, I’m not available to meet!”

 

 

The author has something to say: Xu Chenghao is the spokesperson for Chili pepper, and Chili pepper is the representative of Xu Chenghao’s sincerity.
