Chapter 221: Position

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Chen Chens company was also a software company and had been monitoring the development of this industry. Chen Chen called to talk about Tan Jings matter.

Chen Chen said on the other end of the phone, Second Brother, s.h.i.+ Xiao has already taken action, but I think Tan Jing doesnt seem to have any intention of stopping. I think he wants to destroy Yuan An before s.h.i.+ Xiao finishes him off.

Li Ci was considered Chen Chens superior, but because of Li Cis ident.i.ty, he couldnt work in any company. Therefore, it wasnt appropriate to call Li Ci chairman or general manager, but he couldnt call her by his name either. In the end, Chen Chen thought of a compromise.

Li Ci was the second eldest in the family. He had an elder sister, who was Li Rans mother. Hence, Li Cis subordinates called him Second Brother.

After Li Ci changed the transparent red liquid in the wine gla.s.s and finished the remaining red wine in one gulp, he sneered and said, Hes overestimating himself. If he stops now, his company will still have a chance. If he wants to fight head-on, he will be dead meat.

Chen Chen didnt quite understand. Second Brother, the Tan family has always been neutral. The Jiang family and the s.h.i.+ family have never stood on each others side. At most, they have a closer relations.h.i.+p with the Xu family. Why do so many things seem to be targeting the s.h.i.+ family recently? First, s.h.i.+ Xiao got drunk in No Mans Land, so he had no choice but to marry Yuan Shu. Then, when s.h.i.+ Xiao disappeared, many people tried to use Yuan Shu to directly attack the s.h.i.+ family. Isnt it obvious that theyve already started to take sides?

Li Ci said calmly, Perhaps he didnt just start taking sides now, but he already had a stand?

Baffled, the person on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment.

Li Ci continued, It seems that some people cant hold it in anymore and cant wait to make this secret move public.

Chen Chen was puzzled. You mean that the Jiang family has already started to take action?

Li Ci felt dubious and worried. This was only the first step of the Jiang familys plan against the s.h.i.+ family. If they exposed their position without hiding anything, how many trump cards would the Jiang family have in the future? Moreover, these cards were probably more powerful than Tan Jings.

As he was thinking about it, the door to the second floor behind him opened, and a dim yellow light suddenly appeared. Then, a groggy voice said, Uncle, its so dark in the room. Why didnt you turn on the lights?

After Li Ci turned around and looked at the corridor on the second floor, he saw that Li Ran was standing in front of the door as she rubbed her eyes sleepily.

Li Ci said into the phone, Well talk about the rest tomorrow. Im hanging up now.

After hanging up, he put his phone on the sofa beside him and turned to look at Li Ran, who was slowly walking downstairs.

Li Ci asked, Why did you suddenly get up?

Li Rans voice was very soft and it was obvious that she was still groggy. 1 was thirsty, so 1 got up to find some water to drink.

After hearing this, Li Ci poured her a gla.s.s of warm water. When she approached, he handed it to her. Dont drink too much water, or you wont have a good sleep at night.

After Li Ran took a small sip, she put down the cup. Why arent you asleep yet?

Li Ci rubbed Li Rans head dotingly. 1 was about to sleep and planned to check if you had kicked the blanket away, but you came out.

Li Ran curled her lips. How can my sleeping posture be that bad?!

Li Ci didnt comment, but he didnt bicker with her in the middle of the night, since he was afraid that if they bickered, she wouldnt be able to fall asleep. Its not bad. You have the best sleeping posture.

Li Ran nodded in satisfaction and got up to go upstairs. When she reached the door, she suddenly stopped and leaned against the corridor as she said to Li Ci downstairs, Uncle, you were on the phone with Chen Chen, right? Was there a problem with the software company?

Li Ci froze for a moment before replying, Its fine. You dont have to worry about it.

Li Ci had never hidden his business matters from Li Ran. Furthermore, he knew that Li Ran wasnt interested in these things, so Li Ran only had a rough idea of his business. However, Li Ran didnt know about the operations behind the scenes or the infighting..
