The manga department manager knew that the two of them were family, and this matter could be considered a family matter, so it was not easy for her to find out. “Then why don’t we make an appointment? I’ll treat you. How about the restaurant downstairs?”

Jiang Xinxin glanced at her and knew that she was the manga department manager. She thought that it would be better to make use of this opportunity to learn more about the manga department from her. She agreed readily and the two of them walked together.

“Let me tell you something. Don’t tell anyone else.” The manga department manager seemed to have been holding it in for a long time. She carefully approached Jiang Xinxin and said in a low voice, “I suspect that there is a problem with the copyright purchase of some manga. You also know that the manga department has a large number of books coming in and out. This way, there is money coming in and out! It’s normal for comics to be good and bad. Most of us would choose some better comics to help publish, but there are always some very trashy books in the company that need to be bought at a high price. If it’s one or two books, it can be said that there’s something wrong with the eyes of those idiots in the copyright department, but there are some books that haven’t been reviewed by us at all.”

“For example, the previous battle manga. The plot was clearly very repetitive and the quality of the manga was not particularly good, yet it had spent a ridiculously high capital. It was even much higher than the popular girl’s manga, “Here Comes the Wind,” that we had signed previously! “The strangest thing was that the flow of the real book was particularly chaotic. It did not even enter the final stage of the review. It was not even delivered for publication. I don’t know where it came from.”

Jiang Xinxin pretended not to care and listened to her complaints, but in her heart, she took note of this matter. After she went back, she went to look for the vice president who had helped her in the meeting today, she told him straightforwardly, “I found a lot of problems when I compared the results today. I think it’s necessary to let the financial department check the accounts.”

“Really? What’s the problem?” The vice president was very enthusiastic at the beginning, however, after seeing that it was about the comics department, he went around bringing up other topics and started to evade Jiang Xinxin’s concerns. “About this matter!” Manager Jiang, you know that our company has been quite busy recently. I’m afraid there’s no time for the finance department to check this account book now. Why don’t we wait for some time and I’ll let them check it again.” He continued, “Is there anything else?”

Jiang Xinxin knew that this matter could not be resolved so easily. She repeated it again, trying to convey to him the importance of this matter. In the end, the vice president was also a little annoyed. “Manager Jiang, in theory, the copyright department’s matters are not under the management of your creative arts department. I said that I’ll get someone to look into it. The matters in the company are far from being as simple as you think. If there are any problems in the future, just bring up the process discretely. Don’t be so rash and open your mouth.”

Having said that, Jiang Xinxin knew that Jiang Qian must be behind this matter. It was futile for her to continue to struggle with this vice president. She turned around and left, but she did not expect to meet Jiang Mingzhu at the door.

Jiang Xinxin did not hide it and said with a cold smile, “I didn’t expect you to still like eavesdropping. I wonder what you heard? Have you found something that interests you?”

Even if she wasn’t in front of Jiang Qian now., Jiang Mingzhu still looked as delicate as a lotus flower. “I didn’t hear anything. I just heard my sister asking about the finance department. Sister, you just need to do your own work well. The finance department’s matters are handled by other people. Do you not trust father?”

Was she deliberately digging a hole for her? Was he still mocking her for being nosy? Ordinarily, if Jiang Xinxin had heard this person mocking her like this, she would have been furious and would have retorted. However, she was not angry this time. Instead, she said, “I didn’t say anything bad about my father. This is our family’s business. Shouldn’t I say anything if there’s a problem? Even if I’m being nosy, it’s not my sister’s place to lecture me. You know what I’m like. Since I was young, if you touched my belongings, I would give you a hard time.

“Don’t tell me that all these years, you haven’t suffered enough to learn your lesson?” Jiang Xinxin asked.

“You!”

Jiang Xinxin ignored her and left. She did not call Secretary Chen until she could not see Jiang Mingzhu. She felt that it was necessary to tell Lu Yuanzhi about this. It would be more beneficial for their partnership. However, after the call was connected, Secretary Chen said that Lu Yuanzhi refused to pick up the call and that he was not in the company at the moment.

“If you’re in a hurry, Miss Jiang, you can make an appointment for the meeting room in three days. President Lu will have time by then,” Secretary Chen said in a faraway tone..
