Chapter 992 - 1005: Getting Familiar with Wenshan Group’s Affairs
With An Ran saying "family," Liu Hu didn’t feel as awkward anymore.
Instead, he thought that even though he called An Ran "sister-in-law," he was actually several years older than her, and Captain Mu had entrusted her to his care, which meant he trusted him. From now on, no matter when, he had to respect this young sister-in-law as he respected Captain Mu, and care for her like family.
While eating, Liu Hu’s phone rang. After he finished the call on the balcony and returned, An Ran noticed his expression was strange.
"The Security Department called and said that the teacher named Wang Jiaqi has gone mad."
"Gone mad?"
This news was unexpected for An Ran. Although Wang Jiaqi had extreme ideas and somewhat obsessive behavior, everything else seemed normal. During their time in the countryside, she hadn’t shown any issues. Besides, she was a medical science teacher herself, how could she suddenly go mad?
"Yes, a psychiatrist has already examined her, and indeed, she’s gone mad," Liu Hu said as he sat down. "I heard that as early as when she got divorced, her mental state was already unstable. She had received some mental health treatment back then, and this time, her new and old problems surfaced together, and she’s completely gone mad."
"Ha," An Ran let out a cold laugh, "To think that someone who could conspire with the Qingfeng Town Health Clinic’s head to manipulate elderly patients’ medicines, and use her medical knowledge to attempt to assassinate me during my rehabilitation, I thought her mental fortitude would be much stronger, but it turns out she couldn’t handle the blow either."
An Ran felt no sympathy for Wang Jiaqi’s predicament, instead, she felt it was letting her off easy.
In the Empire, mental illness patients are not held legally responsible, so Wang Jiaqi’s upcoming days would involve her being transferred from prison to a mental hospital, wasting national resources on such people.
Just as he had only taken a couple of bites, Liu Hu’s phone rang again. After the call, Liu Hu’s expression became even stranger.
"What’s wrong? You’re not going to say that Shen Bin also went mad, are you?" An Ran joked.
"No, that wasn’t the case. The call just now came from the Mu Group Headquarters. Vice President Huo from Wenshan Group will come to the Guard Team shortly, and I’m supposed to meet him," Liu Hu said.
"Why is he coming to the Guard Team? Is it because of Wang Jiaqi’s matter? Some of the medicines that Wang Jiaqi and the Qingfeng Town Health Clinic head embezzled were provided by the Wenshan Group. No, if it’s about Wang Jiaqi, why did the call come from the Mu Group Headquarters?"
Watching An Ran mutter to herself, Liu Hu finally said, "It was Miss Mu who called. She said that during the summer break, you should familiarize yourself with the affairs of the Wenshan Group. Once you’re adept with Wenshan Group’s affairs, you’ll then be introduced to the matters of the Mu Group."
With a "pfft," An Ran sprayed out the mouthful of soup she had just drunk.
"What is this? Get familiar with Wenshan Group’s affairs? And also get familiar with Mu Group’s affairs? Did my sister say that?"
When she was initially asked to take over Wenshan, Mu Wanxin clearly said that everything would be handled by the main company, and she only needed to collect the money. How is it that in less than half a year, she regretted it?
Not only do they want her to manage Wenshan herself, but also take charge of Mu Group? How much does her sister trust her to let her handle such a large Mu Group?
"It was indeed Miss Mu who said it." Liu Hu looked at An Ran sympathetically and handed her the phone to confirm that the incoming call was indeed from Imperial City.
