Chapter 54
Fu Xian roughly understood what Jiang Shuiyun meant, "Miss, are you really sure you can do it?"
"Give it a try."
Jiang Shuiyun didn't like to make things too absolute, so after answering Fu Xian, she continued reading.
Fu Xian had a premonition that his expectations would come true. Looking at Jiang Shuiyun, who was focused on the computer, he didn't dare to disturb her. He sat down next to her and read through all the information that Jiang Shuiyun had printed out. Then he found paper and pen to make additional annotations. He couldn't be of much help in the professional field, but he could do what he could.
Jiang Shuiyun and Fu Xian were both busy with their own things, and the afternoon passed in the blink of an eye. It was already late after visiting Jiang's parents, and by the time they looked up again, it was already quite late.
Jiang Shuiyun rubbed her slightly sore eyes, stretched her arms and neck, and felt as if all the bones in her body were cracking. "It's already eight o'clock."
"It's getting late." Fu Xian also looked up. He had finished checking those people's information and dealt with some official business, and now he looked exhausted.
"I've finished reading it. I'll give you a result as soon as I get back."
Jiang Shuiyun knew that this information could not be taken out, so she could only rely on her memory to memorize it. She was still figuring it out, and the large amount of correct and incorrect information made her dizzy and it was really difficult. But fortunately, she was confident.
"Young Miss, you are truly the savior of Jianghe Group."
Fu Xian never imagined that the person who could turn the tide and save the collapsing empire would be the notoriously spoiled young lady. It's no wonder she's the chairman and his wife's child.
"I'm just giving it a try; I can't put all my hopes on this one thing."
Jiang Shuiyun always likes to have a Plan B, and this time is no exception. Although this matter is a bit tricky and it is difficult to find a solution, the principle still cannot be changed.
Fu Xian nodded in agreement, "Don't worry, Miss. Leave the investigation to me. As long as there's someone like that, the other party will eventually slip up."
"Yes, Mr. Fu, thank you for your hard work. Let's not alert them."
Jiang Shuiyun knew that Fu Xian was reliable and capable, so there was no reason not to use him. In any case, she wasn't familiar with Jianghe Group, so it was best to just hand it over to Fu Xian.
"Don't worry, Miss."
The two reached an agreement: Fu Xian would take Jiang Shuiyun home. While working, they didn't feel tired or hungry, but as soon as they got in the car, their stomachs started rumbling.
"Miss, why don't you finish eating before going back? It's already late anyway."
Fu Xian suggested that it was too late to send someone home hungry.
"That makes sense. Let's eat first and then go back."
Jiang Shuiyun didn't know if there was any food left for her in the dormitory, so she decided to solve her own hunger first. When she saw Fu Xian take out his phone to start giving instructions on preparations, she also took out her phone and glanced at it.
Because she was looking at highly confidential information, and because the area was isolated from the signal, Jiang Shuiyun turned off her phone. Now that she turned it back on, a barrage of messages started ringing incessantly, along with numerous missed calls.
Jiang Shuiyun thought something had happened, so she quickly clicked in to take a look. It was nothing serious; Jian Mang and the others had sent her a message asking if she wanted to go back for dinner or something.
These people were really thoughtful. Jiang Shuiyun edited a reply and sent it directly to the group.
[Jiang Shuiyun: My phone was off earlier. I'm eating out with friends, I won't be coming back for dinner. You guys get some rest, we need to get up early for training tomorrow.]
When Jiang Shuiyun selected to send the message, she chose the people she had been chatting with recently. After sending the message, she realized that she had sent the message from five people to six people. Scrolling down, she found that she had accidentally included Yi Jinbai in the message selection.
Jiang Shuiyun's chat with Yi Jinbai was still stuck yesterday. She wanted to retract it, but when she clicked on it, she found that Yi Jinbai's side showed "[The other party is typing...]". It seemed that Yi Jinbai had already seen it.
There was no point in withdrawing it then. Jiang Shuiyun waited for Yi Jinbai's message, which came shortly afterward.
[Yi Jinbai: Is it Shen Yunyi?]
Jiang Shuiyun's tone clearly indicated that she was speaking to the Miracle Team. In Yi Jinbai's memory, besides the Miracle Team, Jiang Shuiyun only had Shen Yunyi as a friend, and perhaps Gao Zhouzhou, but Gao Zhouzhou was currently in City B.
Upon seeing this, Jiang Shuiyun hesitated for a moment, glanced at Fu Xian, and realized that she hadn't told Yi Jinbai about her renewed contact with Jianghe Group, but she also had no reason to lie.
[Jiang Shuiyun: No, it's another friend.]
Yi Jinbai, who was far away in City B, was stunned when he saw Jiang Shuiyun's reply. He felt a little strange. Given Jiang Shuiyun's personality of rarely going out, what other friends did she know besides Shen Yunyi that would go out to eat with her so late?
It definitely wouldn't be Xi Rong, because if it were Xi Rong, Jiang Shuiyun would have directly told the Miracle Team that he was with Brother Xi, so who else could it be?
Yi Jinbai wanted to ask, but he was afraid that Jiang Shuiyun would think he was meddling too much, so he hesitated and finally gave up.
[Yi Jinbai: Get some rest.]
Jiang Shuiyun: Okay, you too.
After Jiang Shuiyun finished replying to Yi Jinbai, Fu Xian, who was standing next to her, asked her if she had any dietary restrictions, thus diverting Jiang Shuiyun's attention.
After the two finished eating together, it was almost ten o'clock when Jiang Shuiyun got into Fu Xian's car and returned to the villa. There was a light left on for her in the villa.
When Jiang Shuiyun walked into the living room, she saw Jian Mang still sitting on the sofa. "It's so late, aren't you going to rest?"
"Captain, I'd like to talk to you, is that alright now?"
Jian Mang stood up and spoke to Jiang Shuiyun with some seriousness.
“Sure,” Jiang Shuiyun sat down on the other single sofa. “What do you want to talk about?”
Jian Mang looked at Jiang Shuiyun and said, "Captain, I know you're exceptionally skilled. Playing games is a piece of cake for you, and you won't waste too much time on it. I heard from Brother Xi that you'll be leaving soon, is that right?"
Jiang Shuiyun knew without guessing that Xi Rong must have learned about it from Shen Yunyi. However, her own plans weren't exactly a secret, so telling them sooner rather than later wouldn't hurt.
"Yes, but I will stay with you until the end of this SWC, and then leave after we win the championship."
“Captain…” Hearing Jiang Shuiyun’s explicit admission, Jian Mang felt somewhat uncomfortable. “So soon? Perhaps the captain could take on a part-time role? It wouldn’t matter if you weren’t often in the team.”
"Swordlight, everyone has their own things to do and their own mission. I am very grateful that when I was desperate, the game gave me a transitional opportunity, but this is not my whole story. I believe in you all, and even after I leave, we will still be the best Miracle Team."
Jiang Shuiyun had always treated this as a job. At first, she hoped that this job could solve the problem of food and clothing for herself and Yi Jinbai, but now it was far from enough, so she could not stand still and had to make new choices.
Moreover, Jiang Shuiyun had always known that she and Jian Mang were different. They were driven by dreams, by passion, and by the fiery passion of youth, while she had never been like that.
Jian Guang remained silent for a long time, simply standing there with his head down. "In just one year, the Miracle Team has experienced great ups and downs, and has been reborn. But now the team is about to lose its captain again. What will happen to the Miracle Team?"
"I will arrange everything before I leave. I trust each and every one of you. Although Jiaoyang is young, he is a promising talent. You have always been the most reliable among these people. How can you panic at this time?"
Jiang Shuiyun stood up, patted Jian Mang on the shoulder, and said, "There will be a long time before we part ways. Don't think about these things. Focus on training and winning the championship. That's what you should be thinking about right now."
After saying that, Jiang Shuiyun pulled Jian Mang's arm and pushed him forward, "Go back and rest quickly, don't let him fall behind in tomorrow's training."
After chasing Jian Mang back to his own room, Jiang Shuiyun also returned to her own room. Leaving this place was only a matter of time. Jiang Shuiyun had already made plans. Although this would have some impact on the Miracle Team, she believed that they would not repeat the same mistakes, because people always have to grow.
Perhaps she had been studying the materials for too long and was too tired, because Jiang Shuiyun woke up late the next morning, which was unusual for her. She even missed breakfast. When she walked out of her room with a yawn, she saw that the five people had already started training downstairs very conscientiously.
Very pleased, Jiang Shuiyun let them train first, and then went back to her room.
Last night I promised Fu Xian I would get this certificate done as soon as possible. Plus, the competition is in less than a week, and I have to leave to record my next variety show in two or three days. Time is really tight.
Relying on her memories while comparing them with the evidence presented by the other party, Jiang Shuiyun became completely absorbed in her work once she started, and didn't even have time to drink tea.
This is not a simple matter. It requires not only theoretical reasoning and explanation, but also solid evidence, and must withstand the collective judgment of professionals.
Jiang Shuiyun easily loses track of time when she's working. It wasn't until Jiaoyang knocked on the door outside, reminding her that it was time for lunch, that Jiang Shuiyun finally looked up from her computer.
After such a long time, it's only just begun. Jiang Shuiyun shut down her computer, touched her remarkably flat stomach, and went out to eat.
Before Jiang Shuiyun had even finished her meal, she received a message from Fu Xian on her phone.
[Fu Xian: The results are in, and arrangements are already underway.]
Jiang Shuiyun was almost surprised that it would happen so quickly. She raised her eyebrows slightly and replied to Fu Xian's message. She knew that Fu Xian's next move would be pretty much decided after she finished this meal.
As expected, Jiang Shuiyun, before even finishing her cup of tea after the meal, let out a scream after eating the first thing, attracting everyone's attention.
"Trending! Trending! Look at the trending topics!"
Yao Yao Ling danced with joy, reminding the others to quickly check the trending topics.
Jiang Shuiyun had a premonition. She opened the trending topics and glanced at them. Fu Xian was indeed very willing to spend money. He bought trending topics as soon as he wanted, and he even bought two or three of them. These included his recent victory in the lawsuit, his counterattack against Qingge Group, which had framed Jianghe Group, and Jiang Shuiyun's successful lawsuit against that marketing account. Everything described in the articles was now clear, and the comments changed direction in an instant.

Chapter 55
"Captain, is this all true? This is unbelievable. Big companies would actually do these things, and in such a treacherous way."
After reading the news online, Viper looked at Jiang Shuiyun beside him and said, "But thankfully, you turned out alright, Captain. Now you won't be getting scolded online anymore."
"Captain, can you reveal some inside information? Jianghe Group was almost driven into bankruptcy before, was it just a case of playing dumb to outmaneuver them? Are they now launching a desperate counterattack, dominating the battlefield, and returning to their peak?!"
The Killing Apostle was equally shocked after reading the trending topic. He mysteriously approached Jiang Shuiyun and made some rather childish guesses, treating it like a revenge story from a fantasy novel.
Jiang Shuiyun shook her head. "There's really nothing I can reveal. I didn't know anything earlier than you."
"But Captain, you're the heir to the Jianghe Group! And the Jianghe Group's announcement says that after this matter is over, they will appeal the case involving Chairman Jiang and his wife for infringing on others' intellectual property rights. Captain, these are your parents! And once their innocence is proven, the Jiang family will be unblocked, and you'll be the eldest daughter of the Jiang family again!"
Jiao Yang, bewildered, took out his phone, looked at the latest announcement from Jianghe Group, and relayed it to Jiang Shuiyun.
As soon as Jiao Yang finished speaking, everyone's happy smiles froze for a moment. Yao Yao Ling looked at the message on her phone, then looked at Jiang Shui Yun, "Captain, are you still going to play games?"
They knew about Jiang Shuiyun's situation when she arrived. Now that the Jiang family is about to turn things around, there is no need for Jiang Shuiyun to stay here and train and play games from dawn till dusk.
Before Jiang Shuiyun could speak, Jian Mang, who already knew everything, interrupted the conversation, "Do you still want to win the championship? Go train."
The sword light took everyone away, and without even a rest, they immediately began training. However, the group was somewhat silent, and since Jiao Yang was the youngest, he couldn't help but ask a question.
"Brother Jianmang, is the captain really leaving?"
"Even if the captain really leaves, he will definitely lead us to win the championship before he leaves. Cheer up, are we kids? Can't we play the game without the captain? Are we that weak that we can only rely on the captain?"
Seeing the group looking dejected, Jianmang asked them in a deep voice.
"Of course not!" Viper was the first to retort. The others also understood. Everyone has their own path. Jiang Shuiyun has a path to walk. They may be reluctant to let go, but after the reluctance, they should cherish the last time they fight together, use the best results to say a perfect goodbye, and then continue to work harder on the path they love.
Seeing how seriously the others were training, Jiang Shuiyun knew that Jian Mang had already dealt with the matter, so she didn't go over to disturb them. Jiang Shuiyun went upstairs to her room, where she still had some unfinished work to do.
After stretching his fingers, Jiang Shuiyun turned on his computer and continued. It was no easy task to prove that the evidence presented by the other party was wrong based on existing theories and systems.
