“There’s still a week before the new product launch. This traitor will steal your core information before the launch. When the time comes, your opponent will be the first to hold the launch. Then… what are you going to do about it, CEO Zhou? You don’t want to lose the bet just like that, right?” Jiang Tong spoke in a manner that was neither fast nor slow. To deal with a proud and arrogant man like Zhou Jingyun, it was very important to have the upper hand. From the very moment she entered the door until now, Zhou Jingyun had been led by the nose by Jiang Tong.

Zhou Jingyun looked at Jiang Tong expressionlessly, his black eyes flickering.

“Ten million, and I’ll tell you who the traitor is.” Jiang Tong spread out her fair palm. She continued, “Of course, if you are generous and you’re willing to add another ten million dollars, I’ll tell you something about your brother. This matter… involves your brother’s safety. He… will lose his life…”

“Are you trying to scare me?” Zhou Jingyun pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses and looked at Jiang Tong darkly.

“No, no, no, I don’t need to scare you. After all, you’re a very stubborn man. Even your old man can’t make you do anything. I’m not stupid enough to threaten you,” Jiang Tong shrugged.

“You seem to know me very well.” Zhou Jingyun narrowed his eyes.

“Of course, I have to live up to my identity as an intelligence dealer. I know a lot of people,” Jiang Tong smiled.

“Is that so? Then, tell me what you know about me.” Zhou Jingyun rested his hands on the table and stared at Jiang Tong with a burning gaze.

Jiang Tong raised her eyebrows and asked, “Are you sure you want to hear this?”

Zhou Jingyun raised his hand and gestured, “Please go ahead.”

Jiang Tong twirled her hair and calmly said, “Zhou Jingyun, 27 years old. Founder, chairman, and CEO of Jingyun Fashion. You graduated from Stanford University. At 23 years old, you returned to China and founded the Jingyun Fashion Corporation. Your main business is selling perfume and high-end clothing. You’re currently worth around two billion dollars.”

Jiang Tong paused for a moment.

Zhou Jingyun sneered, “That’s it?” What kind of information was this? All these could be found by casually searching him up on the internet.

Jiang Tong shook her head slowly and replied “Of course, the information I have of you does not end here. You’re the eldest grandson of the Zhou family. The Zhou family made their fortune through marriage alliances. You were also subjected to this practice. When you were 23 years old, your family used the excuse that your mother was seriously ill to trick you into coming back from abroad. In reality, it was to deceive you to come back and get married. Your grandfather personally arranged the marriage for you to marry Shao Ying, the eldest daughter of the Shao family in Donghai. Your mother had always been partial to you. She didn’t want you to sacrifice your marriage for the family. That’s because your mother married into the Zhou family as a marriage alliance between the two families. As your mother’s family was accomplished, your mother still had some say in your family. But for some reason, even your mother stood on the opposite side this time. She hoped that you could marry Shao Ying, but you refused. Because of this, you had a big fight with your family. You even pointed at your grandfather’s nose and angrily scolded him for relying on women to make a living.”

At this point, Zhou Jingyun’s expression had already changed. He looked at Jiang Tong in bewilderment.

Jiang Tong smiled and continued, “You originally wanted to drop everything and leave the country, but your mother threatened you with her death. So in the end, you made a bet with Shao Ying. Both of you would set up a new company of your own, and the requirement was that the new companies had to be in industries that your families are not involved in. Both of you would rely on your abilities to grow the company. Whoever had the bigger company would win. Therefore, you founded Jingyun Fashion. If you lose this bet, you will have to accept the family arrangement to marry Shao Ying. If you win, you will have the freedom to marry whoever you want and no one will force you to marry again. All these years, you have worked hard and led Jingyun Fashion to create a new world in the industry. In the last couple of years, you even had a few girlfriends. However, these girlfriends eventually left you due to various circumstances. One committed suicide, and the other two… their families fell into ruin.”

Jiang Tong’s gaze swept across Zhou Jingyun’s dark face. Then, she continued, “Actually, all three of your girlfriends were fake. You used them to confuse Shao Ying and create a facade that you’re a very amorous person. But Shao Ying is a ruthless woman. She knew that these women had nothing to do with you, but she still got rid of them. Thus, this is the reason why you have no women by your side now.”

At this moment, Zhou Jingyun’s expression could be described as extremely intriguing. What Jiang Tong said was something that outsiders could not possibly know about. He stared at Jiang Tong for a long time before suddenly clenching his fists. A dangerous light flashed in his eyes.

“I know. With your personality, after hearing what I said, your first reaction would definitely be to kill me.” Jiang Tong directly pointed out the thoughts in Zhou Jingyun’s head.

Zhou Jingyun smiled cruelly and said, “Really? Since you know, you still dare to say all these?”
