Chapter 571: Train of Thought (Extra Chapter for Monthly Tickets)
Shang Kaiwen watched as Jiang Shaoqing was festooned in reds and greens during the awards ceremony on TV, receiving kind condolences and recognition from provincial and city leaders.
She felt a mix of complex emotions.
How could she, a well-informed person, not understand the insider information behind this?
The Jiang family’s luck was truly good.
If they had discovered it a bit later, the outcome of this matter would not have been so glorious; if a mine shaft collapse had happened with casualties, it would have affected countless people. In such a case, the Jiang Family would have been suppressed, and they would have suffered substantial losses at the very least.
Especially in such an accident, the primary person of responsibility would surely be investigated, and Jiang Family’s eldest, Jiang Shaoqing’s own father, would probably end up in jail.
That would have been a difficult time for the Jiang Family, and if their Shang Family proposed a marriage alliance or even offered financial support, they could climb up using the Jiang Family.
She was confident that if she married into the Jiang Family, within a few years, she could make it part of the Shang Family’s assets. She always remembered her grandfather’s words: she was indeed the last heir of the Shang Family of her generation—Bai Xiao didn’t count at all.
