Chapter 1737: Absolutely Must Not Be Soft-Hearted
Everyone just listened to these words casually and didn't take them to heart.
Because Jiang Motian was bickering with Jiang Mobai, she seized the opportunity to add: "You're always participating in competitions, but I haven't seen your world ranking move up much."
This sentence... was a bit stinging.
However, before Jiang Mobai could give a response, Li Moning spoke first: "Compared to last year, it did move up five spots."
"Five spots? That's really not easy. Then keep working hard and see if you can rank first in your lifetime!"
When Jiang Motian said this, her face was full of playfulness.
It was clear that Jiang Motian was in a very good mood at this moment.
She was radiant.
This version of her was not quite the same as before.
In the past, even when Jiang Motian was smiling, there was more or less gloom in her eyes.
And these changes...
Should have been brought to her by the man by Jiang Motian's side.
Sigh, that's why they say humans need love.
Love can make people happy.
It can also make people cast off their sorrows.
Without love, like Li Xingyan, one would live like an old man.
Thinking of Li Xingyan, Jiang Mobai shifted his gaze.
Then he asked: "When will Big Brother find a girlfriend?"
Li Xingyan said expressionlessly: "When you stop finding girlfriends, I will find a girlfriend."
"Ah, do you have to be so harsh on yourself? Are you going to be lonely for the rest of your life?"
When Jiang Mobai said this, he used his hand to steady the table.
And this movement made the table shake, causing the phone that was standing upright to tilt at an angle.
With this tilt, the view on the screen shifted.
It was only then that everyone discovered there was actually a woman in the room.
The woman was only wearing a men's white shirt.
Discovering that the camera was aimed at her, she immediately avoided it.
Such a scene made Xie Wanyi narrow his eyes slightly.
Li Xingyan couldn't help but retort: "You really don't know how to exercise restraint."
Jiang Mobai straightened the phone and added: "One must enjoy life to the fullest while one can."
"Hmm, I can see you're enjoying yourself, but we are not enjoying ourselves at all. Do you know how much trouble the false information you passed on last time caused us?"
Jiang Mobai already knew that the person he had found was a fake.
Regarding this matter, Jiang Mobai was also very self-reproachful.
At the same time, he was also completely baffled: "Wuyou Hall has a pretty good reputation, so how did they stumble this time?"
His words were transmitted to this side of the phone with perfect clarity.
For a moment, no one spoke.
Finally, it was Xie Wanyi who first broke the silence: "Who introduced Wuyou Hall to you?"
"A friend of mine."
"Are you still in contact with this friend?"
"No, we met during a competition, drank and chatted, and then went our separate ways."
So...
It was just a drinking buddy!
The Li Family felt somewhat helpless.
And Jiang Mobai was already accustomed to such looks.
He was actually more curious about Xie Wanyi.
So he asked: "Why ask these things?"
"I saw many trophies here and think you are very remarkable, so I wanted to learn a bit more."
Li Xingyan rolled his eyes upon hearing this reason.
He thought to himself, he's started feeding people sweet talk again!
But this sweet talk was very effective on Jiang Mobai.
He was seen smiling as he issued an invitation: "I feel like I can really talk to you! When we have a chance to meet, I'll teach you some driving techniques!"
Jiang Motian knew Xie Wanyi's ability, so she said: "Wanyi is also very good at driving, it's like he can fly, so rather than you teaching him, it's more like an exchange."
"Is that so? Then when we meet, we can race!"
Race?
Jiang Baobao frowned and then asked: "Do you race often?"
Uh...
Jiang Mobai hurriedly brushed it off: "Just kidding, I couldn't actually do that kind of dangerous thing. Um, you guys continue your meal, see you later."
Jiang Mobai took the opportunity to hang up the phone.
And the Li Family continued their meal.
Only...
Li Xingyan fell into deep thought.
He had been investigating the mastermind behind the scenes these past few days.
However, there had been no progress.
But just a moment ago, Li Xingyan suddenly wanted to try a different approach.
He... was prepared to start with Jiang Mobai!
After the meal, the sky had turned completely dark.
Li Xingyan moved away from the crowd and went to the terrace alone to get some air.
Here, as long as the weather was good, one could look up and see beautiful stars.
Li Xingyan stood there with his hands in his trouser pockets, silently staring at the starry sky.
After a short while, he heard footsteps behind him.
Li Xingyan turned his head and, without any surprise, saw Xie Wanyi.
"Do the women around Jiang Mobai change frequently, coming and going?"
Xie Wanyi's question was something Li Xingyan had not expected.
Regarding Jiang Mobai's personal affairs, he did not want to say much, so he just gave a grunt of acknowledgment.
"Then he should be a little more careful."
Li Xingyan agreed, saying: "We have reminded him many times; we are also afraid he might catch a disease."
Xie Wanyi was taken aback.
He immediately emphasized: "I meant, be careful of the women around him."
Only then did Li Xingyan sense the subtext in Xie Wanyi's words.
He looked to his side and asked: "What exactly are you trying to say?"
"I have an impression of the woman who appeared beside Jiang Mobai just now; I have seen her in the Organization before."
Upon hearing this, Li Xingyan immediately furrowed his brows: "Is that someone from Wuyou Hall?"
"You could say that."
You could say that?
Xie Wanyi had given the same answer not long ago.
And the last time he said it like that...
Li Xingyan said cryptically: "Is this also a private force kept by some important member?"
"Yes."
Li Xingyan immediately let out a cold laugh.
These bastards, they previously arranged a fake Xiaoshi to be by his sister's side, and now they have planted their own people beside Mobai...
It is simply going too far!
Li Xingyan clenched his fists, his eyes looking as if they were spitting fire.
As for his heart... he was considering how to torment these bastards!
At this moment, Xie Wanyi asked a question: "Have you still not been able to find any information on the mastermind?"
"No!"
"I see that your father does not seem to be intervening in this matter."
"That is indeed the case; I want to handle it myself!"
"But as it stands, the investigation will involve some past events, and I think it would be more focused if your father were involved."
As his voice fell, Xie Wanyi handed Li Xingyan a USB flash drive.
Li Xingyan glanced at it but did not take it, instead asking: "What is this?"
"Information on members within the Organization who might be keeping private forces; go and investigate it, perhaps you will gain something."
Hearing this, Li Xingyan's expression relaxed.
Afterward, he took the USB flash drive.
This thing was small and had no weight to it.
But Li Xingyan knew that the content inside carried immense weight!
Now, Xie Wanyi had actually handed these things over to him so easily...
Li Xingyan could not help but ask: "Does this count as betrayal on your part?"
"That depends on how you look at it; in my view, it does not, because your investigation will not harm the innocent."
"Then what if the mastermind is among them?"
"If they are punished, it is what they deserve; he dared to touch Tiantian and scheme against her family, so he is my enemy!"
Jiang Baobao looked at the man in front of her, her heart feeling as if it had been pricked by a needle.
