CHAPTER 352
After the call with Li Fengjin, Bai Renxiang was relaxed and calm. She picked up the office phone on one side of her desk and placed a call a toss Xia Xinyi.
Ring!! Ring!!
Ring!! Ring!!

"He-Hello, boss," a noting voice came from the other line.
"What took you so long to pick up the phone?" Bai Renxiang asked with furrowed brows.
"I am sorry, boss. I just came from the task you had given me," Xia Xinyi said as she slumped down on her chair.
"Alright. So didn\'t you see him? What did my grandfather say?"
"Luckily, I saw him before he left the company. So I quickly rushed up to him and told him that you wished to talk to him urgently. He agreed. He should be in your office any moment from now.
Just as she finished saying that, old man Jiang knocked and opened the door to Bai Renxiang\'s office.
"Ye is here. Thank you, Xinyi. You can carry out your normal work," Bai Renxiang said.
"Okay, boss."
"Hey, grandpa. I had thought you had left the company since after the meeting," Bai Renxiang stood up and approached her old man for a hug.
"I move around for a bit. Oh, my precious pearl. Things are being hard for you. I am sorry," Old man Jiang said as he hugged her back.
"It is nothing grandpa. This is just a phase that will pass."
Pulling away from the hug they walked to the mini parlour in the office and sat side by side on the couch.
"Who told you how to say wise words like that?" Old man Jiang asked.
"What do you mean grandpa? Are you saying that I am not wise?" Bai Renxiang asked with a pout.
"Oh, no. I dare not, sweetie. My bad."
"Well, it was Jin who told me that today," she said.
"Jin?" Old man Jiang appeared to be confused.
"Li Fengjin."
"Oh! Yes... So, you have started calling him Jin. I bet that beat would be on cloud nine hearing you call him that," old man Jiang scoffed while Bai Renxiang blushed a little.
"So, he called?"
"Hmm," Bai Renxiang nodded. "He heard what is happening to the company. So he called to check up on me and we discussed for a while," she answered.
"He cares. That is good," the old man nodded in approval. "So, what do you want to talk about? I was told by your assistant that it is urgent."
"Yea. It is," Bai Renxiang adjusted on the couch so that age was now facing him.
"Is something wrong?"
"Yes and no. As I said, Jin and I were discussing the issue at hand."
"Okay."
"We both had the same thought. And that us that someone in or outside the company is the cause of this. That us someone must have secretly put that chemical into those products," Bai Renxiang explained.
"Okay. That is very very possible. Good thinking. So, who do you guys think it is? Anyone in mind?" He asked.
"Yes. Well, I think it is Jiang Bojing," Bai Renxiang replied.
"Jiang Bojing? That sly fox?"
"Yes," she nodded.
"Hmm. That can be but does he have that guts to do something like this. I mean he knows very well the consequences of his actions," old man Jiang said with a stern gaze.
"I know. But I think he is the only one that literally hates me and this company is you. When I fired him, he looked like he would get back at me for revenge," Bai Renxiang told him how she felt that day.
Old man Jiang weighed the facts of this. It may be true. After all, he has been fighting for Juang Corporation for almost his whole life. Since he did not get the CEO position, he may not want anyone to get it.
And if anyone eventually does, he might do something crazy.
"But, Jin said I should not jump to conclusions just yet," Bai Renxiang\'s voice brought the old man out of his thoughts. He looked t her.
"He suggested that since do not have anyone who could possibly want to get back at me except Jiang Bojing, I should ask about you."
"Okay. What about me?" Old man Jiang asked.
"Grandpa, when you used to head this company... During your reign, uhm did you have any kind of enemy? Like a rival or someone who just hates you or stuff like that. Do you remember any?" She asked.
"Hmm. Back then, when Jiang Corporation was still young, it thrived under my reign. Our business\' growth was rapid and great. So, we were envied. It was normal though."
"Yeah."
"Jiang Corporation did so well that our success shut every jealous person up. Those company that was trying to surpass us, competitive with us... We gave all of them a long gap in the race. But there was this company..." Old man Jiang paused.
"Yes. What company?"
"Hils on for a second let me think. Uhm, was it, QT Fashion World? No, it can\'t be them... Oh, yes. I know it now. LT Corporation. Yes, that is it," he nodded in confirmation.
"Okay. LT Corporation. I think I have heard of that company. It is just another large business but lower than us, right?" Bai Renxiang asked.
"Yes, yes. And that is why that man hates me down to his guts," old man Jiang revealed.
Bai Renxiang just listened carefully to everything her grandfather said. She did not want to miss any important details.
"Back then founder of that company and I were long-time rivals since high school. I think towards the end before we entered the university. His name is Lin Tian-yu."
"Lin Tian-yu," Bai Renxiang mumbled the name. It felt familiar. "Wait, he is still the CEO of LT Corporation," she said.
"Oh, really? Well, that guy was very very competitive. He hated anything second. He would always want my position in school and even in the university because I was known to be the best."
