Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 1720: Chapter 1721: I Was Always the Bait

Chiang Qing has entered the country!

Ning Ge squeezed time out of her hectic schedule to meet Bai Ying, and heard this news from her.

She took the photos Bai Ying handed over and glanced at them. They were surveillance shots taken at the airport immigration area, black-and-white, not very clear, but Ning Ge recognized her at a glance.

There were a few more photos, all pulled from the surveillance system. Looked like Bai Ying had used some of her tech.

“The rest of the background info hasn’t been dug up yet, this is all I’ve got in outline. For Chiang Qing to be able to latch onto Shen Rong, it should be through her grandfather,” Bai Ying pushed over a kraft envelope and said, “On the surface the two of them don’t have any dealings at all. Even when the Loo Family collapsed, this Shen Rong never stepped out. But I found that, right before the Loo Family went under, they vaguely seemed to have mentioned Shen Rong to the family. As for the specifics, that’s unclear.”

Ning Ge opened the file bag and skimmed through at ten lines a glance. This file was basically a detailed rundown of Shen Rong’s personal abilities and preferences, who he favored most, and some things that couldn’t see the light of day. But as for his relationship with the Loo Family and Chiang Qing, there was barely anything.

“Was it this Wang Guanghua who made the introduction?” Ning Ge saw a line of information and asked.

Bai Ying took a sip of hot coffee and said, “You can’t really call it an introduction, at most I’ve heard that this Wang Guanghua once sought out Shen Rong.”

Wang Guanghua was also a tycoon in the business world, and he had drinking-circle ties with Gao Hongbo. So was it because of that, that Chiang Qing went through him, and then Wang helped her find Shen Rong?

If this setup holds, then that means Chiang Qing had long known of Shen’s existence, she just couldn’t get to him. She went through Wang, and that’s how it worked out.

Whether that’s the case, ask around and you’d know. However, as Ning Ge kept reading, her brows knitted together.

Wang Guanghua died of a myocardial infarction.

Looking at the date, it was only a few days apart from Gao Hongbo’s death. That was a bit too coincidental, wasn’t it?

“Isn’t this way too much of a coincidence?” Ning Ge pointed at those words and looked at Bai Ying.

Bai Ying glanced over and said, “That’s what I found. At the drinking sessions between Wang and Gao, Chiang Qing had shown up too. She even went along with Gao’s wishes and entertained Wang.”

So the two of them doing some kind of deal in private would be perfectly normal.

Hearing this, Ning Ge immediately felt a little sick.

“Anyway, whatever Shen Lu might have had going on in the past, the one tied to Shen Rong now is Chiang Qing,” Bai Ying said. “Shen Rong is said to be extremely decisive and ruthless in his methods, moves fast, knows how to steer clear of danger and grab the upside, and he’s very cautious. So you’d better take it easy.”

“You think I need to be afraid of him?” Ning Ge raised an eyebrow.

Bai Ying choked, then glared and said, “Even if you’re not afraid, why get yourself covered in stink?”

“If he doesn’t come mess with me, you think I’d go sidling up to him?” Ning Ge snorted. “But I do want Chiang Qing to poke the hornet’s nest a bit, so I can see where Shen Rong’s bottom line is.”

“You’re not planning to use yourself as bait, are you?” Bai Ying straightened up.

“No, I’m bait by default.” Ning Ge wagged her finger. “I’ve always been bait. As for whether Shen Rong and Chiang Qing bite, we’ll just have to see.”

“But this Shen Rong, he’s got that kind of business, he’s got the means, and he’s touching black…”

Ning Ge pointed at a line in the file and said, “The Shen Family wants to push into the mainland market. On this point alone, we can get a grip on how to act.”

Outside the country, maybe she couldn’t really do much to Shen Rong and his people. But if their family wanted to break into the mainland, then it would be a different ball game. This file would be quite useful against him. She’d have to study Shen Rong’s weak spots in detail later.
