Chapter 149: Not agreeing means refusing, not refusing means agreeing.

Jiang Nian's expression was a little strange.

Because he didn't expect that his breakthrough this time would be like this.

"Reality test?"

He muttered to himself, looking at the four big words deep in his mind, his brows furrowed.

Break and stand.

These four words are not difficult to understand.

Break free from today's constraints and forge a new path.

But here comes the problem.

"Am I in bondage now?"

Speaking of the matter, Jiang Nian feels that everything has been going pretty smoothly since he got the system.

The only obstacle I encountered during this period was my lack of understanding and the limitations of the system.

But this limitation was solved in the morning as his comprehension level increased to '5'.

Obviously, this is not the key to restrain Jiang Nian.

"It can't be this, can it?"

Jiang Nian lowered his head.

He thought of the first sentence of "The Sword of Exorcism": If you want to practice magic skills, you must first castrate yourself.

But I also feel that this is not realistic.

Because if breaking through the constraints requires cutting.

This problem emerged as early as when he first started practicing the "Bixie Sword Technique".

There is no need to abstain from sex or practice silent meditation.

"Damn it, there are so many roundabout ways, how can I understand this?"

Jiang Nian rubbed his eyebrows and felt a headache.

This is one of the major drawbacks of data-based martial arts training.

Although the speed of cultivation is very fast, as long as the proficiency is sufficient, a breakthrough can be achieved.

But if we get stuck in a bottleneck like we are now.

I really don't understand where the problem lies.

Thinking about it to no avail.

Jiang Nian simply calmed down and looked through Lin Pingzhi's memories, which he had read countless times, to find the answer.

However, he hadn't been reading for long.

"Teacher Jiang, you are here as expected."

A crisp voice came, interrupting Jiang Nian's thoughts.

He looked up and saw Xu Xinyuan walking up the mountain path and waving at him.

Seeing this, Jiang Nian collected his thoughts and said, "It's you. What's the matter? Do you want to talk to me about something?"

"Can't I come to you if nothing happens?"

Xu Xinyuan walked quickly to Jiang Nian's side, put her hand on Jiang Nian's shoulder, and said playfully, "Or is it that Teacher Jiang is hiding something and doesn't want me to know?"

Hearing this, Jiang Nian looked surprised: "You figured this out? Then I won't pretend anymore. To be honest, I want to hug you."

"Come on, I'll get a room now?"

Xu Xinyuan took out her cell phone and waved it at Jiang Nian.

Seeing this, Jiang Nian would have definitely found ways to reject her before.

Because he practiced the "Bixie Sword Technique", he could not break the rules at all. Once he broke the rules, all his skills would be lost and all his previous efforts would be wasted.

But now, this "Bixie Sword Technique" is about to break through.

The restrictions also disappeared, and Jiang Nian no longer had any worries.

"Hotel? No, we have to go down the mountain, which is too much trouble. I think this place is beautiful with clear water and green mountains, and few people are here. It's better to do it today than to wait for a day. Why not?"

Facing Jiang Nian's aggressive eyes.

Xu Xinyuan couldn't help but feel dazed.

Because she found that Jiang Nian seemed serious this time!

He's not kidding!

this.
“Gulp—”

Xu Xinyuan swallowed subconsciously.

I suddenly felt a little nervous.

"Teacher Jiang, isn't this a bit too hasty?"

"Is it careless? If I remember correctly, before this, you often said that you wanted to play in the mountains, right? Or are you afraid?"

Raising his hand to hook Xu Xinyuan's chin, Jiang Nian had a faint smile on his face as if he had seen through everything.

Xu Xinyuan can't stand provocation.

Seeing this, he immediately became unhappy and stiffened his neck: "Afraid? Who is afraid? I'm afraid that you will say nice things now, but in the end, you will make excuses in various ways when the time comes!"

"Why don't you try it now?"

"Just try it."

"Then come."

"you"

The argument between the two became more and more fierce, and the tension grew stronger.

The next moment, they were about to start a quick match to test each other's strength.

"Teacher Jiang, are you there?"

A voice came from not far away.

Interrupting the conversation between Jiang Nian and Xu Xinyuan.

At the same time, the hot atmosphere between the two of them dissipated directly.

"Is someone coming?"

Xu Xinyuan was startled and quickly straightened her clothes, pretending nothing had happened.

Jiang Nian frowned.

He thought to himself, who the hell is this person who would ruin his good thing?

He looked in the direction of the sound and saw footsteps getting closer in the distance. Chen Qiaoen entered Jiang Nian's sight.

"is her?"

Xu Xinyuan uttered a sigh, then sneered, "Ms. Chen, you are really annoying. Why do you follow me wherever I go?"

If it were any other time, after hearing Xu Xinyuan's foul language, Chen Qiaoen would definitely not be outdone and would have directly retorted.

But today, she just frowned, then quickly walked up to Jiang Nian, walked straight in, and asked, "Teacher Jiang, have you offended anyone recently?"

As soon as these words came out, Jiang Nian realized something and his eyes focused: "What's wrong?"

"My agent called me just now and told me not to get too close to you in the future. Teacher Jiang, is there something wrong with you?"

Chen Qiaoen was very confused.

What happened between her and Jiang Nian was almost public.

Her agent certainly knew.

Before this, regarding this matter, Chen Qiaoen's agent had always held the attitude that as long as no one was killed, it didn't matter if there were some scandals.

I don't care at all.

But today, he acted out of character and very seriously asked her and Jiang Nian to keep their distance.

The sharp contrast between the two made Chen Qiaoen feel very uneasy.

So I came here as soon as possible.

Hearing this, Jiang Nian said to himself, "As expected."

When Chen Qiaoen asked him if he had offended anyone during this period.

Jiang Nian guessed that this was probably related to the fact that he was banned by the investors of "Longing".

Now I know that Chen Qiaoen's agent directly forbids Chen Qiaoen from contacting himself.

Jiang Nian became even more certain of this.

Chen Qiaoen's company must have heard some rumors, so they came to give Chen Qiaoen a heads-up in advance.

This is to prevent Chen Qiaoen from being implicated by Jiang Nian when the investors of "Longing" are liquidating.

“What a great ability.”

"Before we even start to make any real moves, these people are already panicking."

"If they are officially preparing to attack me, then everyone around me will be scared away by them."

Jiang Nian sneered in his heart.

There was no trace of smile in his eyes.

He looked at Chen Qiaoen and said lightly, "I did encounter some problems recently, but it's not a big deal."

"Really?"

Chen Qiaoen didn't believe it.

"real."

Jiang Nian confirmed.

Perhaps for others, being banned by the capital is a matter of huge magnitude.

But in Jiang Nian's opinion, this kind of thing is not worthy of being made public.

Once he finishes the things on hand, he can easily get it done when he has time.

However, I guess few people would believe this.

Jiang Nian didn't waste any more words on this matter. He just changed the subject and asked, "Speaking of which, your company asked you to stay away from me. What do you think?"

If Chen Qiaoen nodded now.

Jiang Nian would never say anything more, let alone bother her.

After all, they have nothing to do with each other now.

Chen Qiaoen is free to do whatever she wants.

Upon hearing this, Chen Qiaoen showed a look of struggle on his face.

Because she didn't know what to do.

From a rational point of view, before she knew exactly what was going on, she should have listened to the company, distanced herself from Jiang Nian, and even cut off contact with him.

But from an emotional point of view, after spending more than three months together day and night, her feelings for Jiang Nian were very deep, and it was really hard for her to leave like this.

See her struggle.

Jiang Nian knew that she couldn't make a decision now.

So he patted Chen Qiaoen on the shoulder:

"It happened so suddenly, you probably aren't ready yet. Don't worry, think about it slowly. When you've made up your mind, you can tell me or not."

"No matter what, I respect your opinion and understand your choice."

In fact, at this time, Jiang Nian already had the answer in his heart.

There is a saying that goes, not agreeing is a rejection, and not refusing is an agreement.

When Chen Qiaoen was hesitating whether to listen to the company and stay away from Jiang Nian.

This actually means that Chen Qiaoen has already had this idea in mind.

The current hesitation is just a matter of weighing the pros and cons.

And once you weigh the pros and cons.

In fact, there is no suspense about this matter.

After all, no matter how much Jiang Nian fascinates Chen Qiaoen, he cannot bring any actual benefits to Chen Qiaoen, and it will be in vain in the end.

Obviously, Chen Qiaoen herself is also aware of this matter.

She lowered her head. "I'm sorry."

Jiang Nian waved his hand: "There's nothing to be sorry about. You don't owe me anything. Besides, this is an order from the company. You're just an employee. There's nothing you can do. Okay, is there anything else?"

Seeing his reasonable attitude.

The more Chen Qiaoen thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt.

She pursed her lips and said, "No, sorry, Mr. Jiang, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

After saying that, he seemed to be afraid to face Jiang Nian again.

Chen Qiaoen lowered his head and fled away.

I watched her figure go farther and farther away until it finally disappeared at the end of my sight.

Jiang Nian lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and then looked at Xu Xinyuan beside him: "What about you?"

"What am I?"

Xu Xinyuan asked.

"Don't play dumb. She's received the message and is not allowed to get close to me. Don't tell me there's no movement from your side."

"Okay, you figured it out, but I'm already standing here, so you should be able to see my attitude, right?"

Knowing that she couldn't hide it any longer, Xu Xinyuan stopped pretending and came clean.

Seeing this, Jiang Nian raised his eyebrows: "Aren't you worried about something happening?"

"Why should I worry? It's you who offended them, not me. If they really want to make an example of me, my boss won't be a pushover either." Xu Xinyuan said indifferently.

Jiang Nian couldn't help but sighed, "So you all have backgrounds, and I'm the only one who's single, right?"

"Emm, that's about right. You can understand it this way. Why, Teacher Jiang, are you envious?"

Xu Xinyuan looked at Jiang Nian and asked with a smile.

Jiang Nian shook his head: "Not really."

"Really or not?"

"You little brat, why would I lie to you about this?"

Jiang Nian was a little impatient.

If you, Xu Xinyuan, tell him that you make a lot of money, Jiang Nian might even be a little envious.

But he has a background, so why would he envy such a thing?

To put it bluntly, the background is restriction.

Just like Chen Qiaoen just now.

The company asked her not to get close to Jiang Nian, so she had to consider it.

I feel very uncomfortable because I am tied up in doing nothing.

Jiang Nian doesn't like this.

This is also the reason why he joined Yang Mi's team.

Not to mention much else, the very least, Yang Mi really can't control him.

Afterwards, Jiang Nian had a brief chat with Xu Xinyuan and then came down from the mountain.

Nothing beyond friendship happened between him and Xu Xinyuan.

After all, the Chen Qiaoen incident ruined Jiang Nian's interest completely.

I don't have the energy to continue messing around.

As for Xu Xinyuan, she was not naughty either. Instead, she went down the mountain with Jiang Nian obediently. They parted ways at the foot of the mountain and went back to their respective homes.

The next day, early in the morning.

Jiang Nian woke up from his sleep, but instead of going out to practice martial arts as usual, he turned on his computer and started searching on the Internet.

What happened with Chen Qiaoen last night kept him from sleeping well the whole night.

Of course, this is not because of Chen Qiaoen.

Jiang Nian is not so useless as to be unable to sleep all night because of a woman.

The culprit that caused his insomnia was the investor of "Yearning".

As a master who does not suffer any loss.

How could Jiang Nian tolerate the investors of "Longing" trying to mess with him?

This made him spend the whole night thinking about how to deal with them.

And after very careful thinking.

Jiang Nian could think of only one solution - offline private chat.

Admittedly, this is a bit too simple and too crude.

But this is the most effective way, no doubt about it.

After all, these people are the capitalists, and they have their eyes on the top of their heads.

Given their character, they definitely won't listen if you talk to them nicely.

In this case, it would be better to skip this step directly and let them taste the iron fist of three generations of poor peasants and workers.

And what Jiang Nian is looking for now.

This is the information of the investor.

This is not very difficult. You can find it quickly by looking through the end credits of "Longing".

"SUNSHINE VARIETIES LIMITED."

Jiang Nian repeated the name and then searched the Internet for the internal situation of the company.

This is also the biggest difficulty at present.

After all, there is no "Tianyancha" in this era.

Jiang Nian could only use the most stupid method, searching bit by bit through the information on the Internet.

The search lasted about five hours, until noon.

Jiang Nian rubbed his tired eyes and then sorted out the information of this group of people.

It must be said that it is worthy of being one of the oldest variety show investment companies in China.

The relationships inside are just like those of a set of Teddy Bear nesting dolls, one link after another.

There are more than 20 board members in public, and behind each of them stands a person.

And behind these people, there are people!

Although Jiang Nian was unable to tell whether the information he had collected so far was true or false.

But having this foundation is enough.

If the rest doesn't work, ask a private detective for help.

"But speaking of private detectives."

"I remember that Zhang Linyu was doing this before he became a manager, right?"

"Ask him?"

Jiang Nian thought about it, picked up his phone, and was about to send a message to Zhang Linyu.

However, before he could send out his message, Zhang Linyu's message came before him:

"Brother Jiang, hurry up, gather at the gate of Jinyun Xiandu, we're going to have team building!"

Seeing this, Jiang Nian: “???”
