Chapter 2051: Don't Want to Be Neighbors With Him

When the man spoke, his expression was sincere and his attitude humble.

If one hadn't seen his actions that day with their own eyes, it would be very easy to believe his "advice."

But Jiang Mobai would not believe it.

He narrowed his eyes, a cold and stern aura radiating from his body: "Her reputation is bad?"

The middle-aged man did not sense the danger and continued to smear Su Kexuan: "Yes, a beautiful woman who can make a name for herself in the business world so quickly—what does that tell you?"

"I don't know, you tell me."

"Oh, it means these things were definitely exchanged for with her body!"

"Heh, did you see it?"

"Well, no, I just heard..."

"You dare to take hearsay and spread it around as the truth? Didn't your family teach you that trouble comes from the mouth?"

At this very moment, the man finally realized that something was wrong.

But...

It was too late!

Jiang Mobai snorted coldly: "If they didn't teach you, I'll teach you!"

As he spoke, he raised his fist, ready to smash it into the other man's face!

But in a flash, someone gripped his wrist.

It was Xie Wanyi!

Jiang Motian, meanwhile, yanked the middle-aged man's collar from his other hand.

Everything happened too fast.

The middle-aged man was still shaken.

He stared blankly at Jiang Motian.

Then he heard her say: "Su Kexuan is my, Jiang Motian's, friend. Everything she has achieved today is thanks to her own ability!"

"... Yes."

"You spread rumors that Su Kexuan's conduct is questionable, and since she has collaborated with my older brother many times, aren't you implying that my brother's conduct is also questionable?"

"Ah? I, I didn't mean that!"

"When it comes to spreading rumors, it doesn't matter if you meant it or not, as long as I feel satisfied saying it!"

The man groaned inwardly.

He was also very puzzled as to how he had provoked this pair of siblings!

Jiang Motian reached out to warn him: "I have already remembered you. If I hear anyone spreading rumors about Su Kexuan again, I will come to settle the score with you!"

"Ah? That's unreasonable! If others talk nonsense, it shouldn't be counted against me!"

"Then start with yourself and clear Su Kexuan's name!"

"This..."

Seeing this guy keep blathering on, Jiang Mobai shouted: "Why waste words with him? Just beat him up!"

"Oh, isn't it just clearing Miss Su's name? That's what I should do. I'll go right now. Everyone, excuse me!"

Fearing that Xie Wanyi wouldn't be able to hold Jiang Mobai back, the man hurriedly promised.

Afterward, he hugged the wall and carefully slipped away.

Seeing the man get into his car, Xie Wanyi finally let go of Jiang Mobai.

Jiang Mobai shouted toward the direction the man left: "Scum, coward!"

After shouting it out, Jiang Mobai felt a bit better.

But...

When he turned his head, he found that Jiang Motian was silent, just staring at him gloomily.

This made him feel a bit uneasy.

He glanced to the side.

Jiang Mobai immediately looked at Xie Wanyi as if he were a savior: "Brother-in-law, your movements are agile enough; I didn't even feel you approach!"

Xie Wanyi smiled faintly: "I was rude just now."

"Oh, why be so polite? Let's spar another day!"

"Jiang Mobai, you're confused! If this blows up, you'll be banned from competing!"

Jiang Motian finally spoke up.

Knowing he couldn't escape, Jiang Mobai hurriedly self-reflected: "Got it, next time I beat someone up, I'll cover my face."

This reflection of his...

It would have been better if he hadn't reflected at all; Jiang Motian felt a headache coming on.

Xie Wanyi continued to join in the fun: "Or you could come to me; I have ways to teach him a lesson without leaving a trace."

"Oh, Brother-in-law, teach me now!"

"It's just..."

"You two!"

Jiang Motian suddenly shouted, small flames burning in her eyes.

Jiang Mobai waved his hand, soothing her: "The matter is resolved, why are you still so angry?"

"Really resolved?"

As Jiang Motian said this, she suddenly leaned close to Jiang Mobai.

Jiang Mobai was startled by her and hurriedly took half a step back.

Then he asked uneasily, "What are you doing?"

"Tell me, why did you want to cause trouble for that man?"

"You just heard the reason, didn't you? Besides, you also intimidated that man."

"I intimidated him because he was spreading rumors about Su Kexuan, but I wouldn't stalk him or cause him trouble so blatantly; that's too stupid!"

As the words fell, Jiang Motian blinked.

Subsequently, she felt she had an epiphany: "You... you didn't intentionally leave your identity unhidden, did you? Why? Do you want Su Kexuan to know?"

Jiang Mobai hurriedly denied it: "What nonsense are you spouting? I am someone who doesn't change his name when he walks or his surname when he sits!"

Is that so?

Jiang Motian held a skeptical attitude toward this.

Rolling her eyes, Jiang Motian changed the subject: "Sui Xin asked me to go shopping this morning, and she happened to mention Su Kexuan."

This time, Jiang Mobai was clearly panicked.

He furrowed his brows and asked, "Sui Xin didn't talk nonsense, did she?"

"Oh my, Sui Xin said a lot of things. Which aspect are you referring to?"

Jiang Mobai's lips moved.

But he said, "Don't try to trick me!"

Xie Wanyi chuckled.

He shook his head and muttered, "Both of you are harboring your own little secrets; can't you just sit down and have a proper talk?"

"There's nothing to talk about. Right now, I just want to send Sui Xin away as soon as possible!"

Xie Wanyi asked him, "How is the house hunting going?"

"I've found quite a few, but she isn't satisfied with any of them. I feel like she's just making excuses!"

No need to think about it; this is certain.

No matter how good a house Jiang Mobai finds, Sui Xin can always find a reason not to move.

And in times like these, reverse thinking is needed.

Xie Wanyi then said, "If it doesn't work, you move out. If you aren't at home, she naturally won't have any reason to stay."

Huh?

This is a good idea!

Jiang Mobai's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

But speaking of moving out to live...

Jiang Motian offered a suggestion: "I heard there's a place for rent downstairs from Kexuan's. Should I ask for you?"

Jiang Mobai knew that Jiang Motian's purpose in mentioning Su Kexuan at this moment was not pure.

But this condition was too tempting...

Jiang Mobai lifted his chin slightly and said with a bit of feigned arrogance, "Then... go ahead and ask?"

No sooner said than done.

Jiang Motian was seen taking out her phone and dialing Su Kexuan's number.

Soon, the call was answered.

Jiang Mobai pricked up his ears to listen:

"Kexuan, has the place downstairs from you been rented out yet? Not yet? I see. It's like this, my brother wants to rent a place outside. Hey, which brother could it be? Mobai... Oh, I see."

Seeing Jiang Motian suddenly hang up the phone, Jiang Mobai asked in confusion, "Are you done talking? You just hung up?"

"Yeah, as soon as Kexuan heard it was you who wanted to rent the place, she said she didn't want to be your neighbor."

Jiang Mobai's eyes widened immediately.

Clearly, he was angered, and he spoke hysterically: "What did I do to her that she won't be my neighbor?"

"Well... she said you attract bad romantic luck and it's easy for you to clash with her career path."

"Pfft—"

Xie Wanyi really couldn't hold it in and burst out laughing.

Jiang Baobao looked at the man in front of her, her heart feeling as if it had been pricked by a needle.
