I Repeated The Same Day For 500 Years

Chapter 75: Settled

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Four months after the car accident, the Jiao family had completely calmed down. Jiao You was completely fine because there was not enough evidence to prove that he was the mastermind behind the car accident. It was just that everyone had said so. However, there were some things that did not require evidence. Everyone just knew!

Jiao Qinglong’s father was still partial to Jiao You, but in fact, he was not biased to that extent. He was mainly thinking about the company. At that time, Jiao You had already been the vice president of the company for ten years, and Jiao Qinglong had just entered the company not long ago. Furthermore, he did not know how long his health would permit him to stay in the company. His position would eventually be handed over to his son. Would it be to his eldest son or his youngest son? He could only choose one because the two brothers would never manage the company together! In the end, he could only choose the older, more mature, and courageous eldest son, Jiao You. This was the reason why Jiao Qinglong had become like this. He could only lay low and endure patiently, waiting for an opportunity to turn things around!

In fact, Jiang Tong did not pay too much attention to Jiao Qinglong during the 500-year cycle. After all, he was too low-key and paid attention to his privacy. However, as Jiang Tong investigated more and more wealthy people in City Z, she gradually realized that these people seemed to privately be in contact with Jiao Qinglong! On the surface, there was no communication, and they would not appear together in any public places. However, they met many times in private, but there was no business contact. It was very strange.

Jiang Tong felt that something was wrong, so she investigated carefully. Then, she learned about Jiao Qinglong’s experience. Jiao Qinglong’s low-key and personal safety-conscious style greatly increased the difficulty of Jiang Tong’s investigation, and in the end, she was the one who violently kidnapped Jiao Qinglong and asked about these things.

“Hahaha...” on the other end of the phone, no one knew what Hong Tongfei said. Jiao Qinglong laughed loudly, then said, “Alright, alright, alright. How about this, if I have something to do, you can take a leave of absence from the production team and return to City Z as soon as possible. I’ll inform the director. Yes, it’s very urgent. I’ve accepted a cosmetics endorsement for you... It’s alright. We’ll just reject your previous one. I’ll compensate you for the penalty fee. Mhmm, alright, come... give me a kiss... so obedient!”

After Jiao Qinglong hung up the phone, he raised his head and smiled at Jiang Tong. “Hong Tongfei said that she booked the fastest plane ticket back to the country. Unfortunately, there’s no direct flight. She has to change planes and will probably arrive at midnight. How about it? I wasn’t just bragging to you, right?” As he spoke, he laughed out loud again.

It was settled just like that? Jiang Tong’s eyes flashed as she gave Jiao Qinglong a thumbs up. “Awesome!” Since Jiao Qinglong was so sincere, she should show him something. She could tell him some things about Jiao You.

In fact, according to Jiang Tong’s initial plan, she wanted to make a trade with Jiao Qinglong. Playing games was just a way to get to know him. Although Jiao Qinglong had kept many women, and he had also supported many female celebrities, the one he loved the most was Hong Tongfei, who had been with him for the longest time. Just the words said while playing games was not enough to make Jiao Qinglong call Hong Tongfei back from abroad. Jiang Tong had set a time for herself. Two hours. She wanted to settle the matter with Jiao Qinglong in two hours and use Jiao You’s information to exchange for Hong Tongfei to be Jingyun Fashion’s spokesperson! However, what Jiang Tong did not expect was that she had it settled in less than an hour. Otherwise, why would she say that Zhou Jingyun was an assistant!

The few words that Jiang Tong said to Zhou Jingyun during the short call directly let Jiao Qinglong know about her relationship with Zhou Jingyun. If it was not for that phone call, Jiang Tong felt that she would probably have to waste some more time with Jiao Qinglong before she could reach a deal. This phone call had achieved more than that. It had also completely changed Jiang Tong’s relationship and position with Jiao Qinglong. Hong Tongfei had the endorsement of other brands of cosmetics, and according to the rules, she couldn’t accept another endorsement of the same type from another company. If she accepted it, it would be a breach of contract and she would have to pay a loss! Although she had accepted the endorsements before she became famous, and the penalty for breaching the contract wasn’t too high, Jiao Qinglong had just said on the phone that he would pay for the penalty.

In other words, Jiao Qinglong had called Hong Tongfei back to represent Jingyun Fashion not with a hidden motive but to help Jiang Tong solve her problems. And while he was at it, Jiao Qinglong would have to spend money to solve this problem, but he didn’t ask Jiang Tong for money! This wasn’t something a normal businessman should do, and it wasn’t something he said he would do for a small favor... so why did Jiao Qinglong do it? Because he wanted to befriend Jiang Tong!
