Chapter 2101: You Are Only Making Things Worse
Jiang Motian gave a vague answer, which made Jiang Mobai let out a soft hum.
However, he did not press for details, but instead leaned on his crutches and walked away slowly.
Jiang Motian stared at his back, unable to help muttering, "This guy, why has he suddenly become so deep?"
Thinking of the news online still fermenting, Jiang Motian walked back into the house and picked up her phone.
She had wanted to see the follow-up to those news stories.
But she didn't know until she looked; once she did, there was truly all sorts of talk online.
It was a real mixed bag.
Jiang Motian didn't look for long before she felt a headache coming on.
She wondered how the people involved would feel if they saw it.
At this moment, Jiang Motian really wanted to call Su Kexuan to show some concern.
But after hesitating for a moment, she gave up.
Su Kexuan was a workaholic.
She was surely busy working at this very moment.
If Jiang Motian found her now to talk about these messy affairs, it would only affect her mood.
So...
She would talk to her another time.
Jiang Motian patted her cheeks and decided to attend to her own business first.
And after Jiang Mobai returned home, he also began to busy himself with his own business.
It was just that he was busy in silence, without letting anyone see a hint of what he was doing.
For the next two days, he didn't stir up any commotion either.
The only time he went out was to go to the racing team.
His quietness made Jiang Motian feel that something was abnormal.
In the end, she was the one who took the initiative to find Jiang Mobai and asked, "Aren't you going to ask me how my communication with Kexuan went?"
Jiang Mobai lifted his eyes from a book and looked at Jiang Motian.
Then he replied, "If you want to say it, you will naturally tell me, just like now."
Jiang Mobai's composed appearance really looked like Li Xingyan.
But the two of them had different personalities.
Seeing the same expression on Jiang Mobai's face... it just felt strange.
Jiang Motian knitted her brows slightly and said, "Mobai, be normal."
"I am very normal," Jiang Mobai closed the book and urged, "Let's talk about the real business first."
Jiang Motian pursed her lips and then said, "Kexuan has already started investigating, and Wanyi is helping out too; I believe the culprit will be caught soon."
"And what about Sui Xin?"
Sui Xin's situation was very tricky.
If they went too easy on her, it would have no effect. If they went too hard, what if she did something desperate?
Jiang Motian got a headache just thinking about it.
Fortunately, Su Kexuan had already found a direction to solve the problem.
To put Jiang Mobai at ease, Jiang Motian gave a brief explanation: "Kexuan has arranged a counterattack, and it will show results soon."
"What specific means?"
"This... I didn't ask in detail."
"You didn't ask, and you didn't help?"
"……Yeah."
Jiang Motian lied.
She knew at least something about Su Kexuan's plan.
But the plan was still confidential, and she couldn't reveal too much to Jiang Mobai.
And her secrecy made Jiang Mobai mistakenly think she was unreliable.
He frowned and began to criticize: "Aren't you her good friend? Why did you let her fight alone?"
"I wanted to help too, but Kexuan didn't need it."
"Just because she didn't need it, you stood by and watched? Since when did you become so stubborn!"
"This has nothing to do with being stubborn; acting rashly would only be a hindrance! Anyway, I trust Kexuan; she'll be fine!"
Jiang Motian truly believed in Su Kexuan.
Her eyes were filled with the light of trust.
And Jiang Mobai was truly frustrated.
He couldn't help muttering, "Such a good opportunity, just wasted for nothing! Really..."
"Ah, what did you say?"
Jiang Motian hadn't heard clearly what Jiang Mobai said, so she asked.
But Jiang Mobai didn't repeat it; he just turned his back to Jiang Motian and leaned against the sofa.
Then he said sullenly, "Nothing, I'm tired, I'm going to rest for a while."
Jiang Mobai's behavior made Jiang Motian feel baffled.
However, there was one thing Jiang Motian was very clear about: this guy was sulking with her!
A person with a broad mind would not sulk with someone for no reason.
Especially with his own younger sister.
And Jiang Mobai's behavior made Jiang Motian feel...
This guy has stayed at home for too long, and his heart has become narrow!
Jiang Motian felt this was a bad sign.
In order to nip this sign in the bud, Jiang Motian proposed a suggestion: "How about I take you out for a spin?"
"No need. If I want to go out, I will go myself. I'm not a child."
"But the way you're sulking, isn't that exactly what a child would do?"
"I'm not sulking, I'm just tired, tired!"
Jiang Mobai's tone was gradually rising.
Especially those last two words, which sounded a bit exasperated.
Seeing this, Jiang Motian quickly said, "Alright, alright, alright, then I won't bother you, you rest."
After speaking, Jiang Motian helplessly walked out of Jiang Mobai's bedroom.
Closing the door behind her, Jiang Motian stood outside the door and sighed softly.
"Tiantian, did I just hear Mobai shouting?"
Jiang Baobao happened to be passing by and, seeing Jiang Motian, asked with concern.
Jiang Motian quickly composed her emotions and replied, "Him? He's a bit angry."
"Everything was fine, why would he be angry?"
Hmm...
Jiang Motian hadn't figured out how to respond to her mother.
As it turned out, Jiang Baobao deduced the "truth" herself: "This child Mobai has been moody lately, and I don't know which word might upset him."
Jiang Baobao assumed Jiang Mobai was angry because of his own emotional state.
Although this reason was a hundred thousand miles away from the truth.
It happened to help Jiang Motian out of a tight spot.
Jiang Motian quickly went along with her mother's words and continued: "Once Mobai's injuries heal and his mood is no longer suppressed, he can return to normal."
Jiang Motian's comfort didn't have much effect.
Jiang Baobao sighed: "But after his injuries heal, he will return to the racetrack, and my heart will have to be on edge again."
She did not approve of Jiang Mobai continuing to race.
Unfortunately, Jiang Mobai did not intend to change careers.
Every time the mother and son discussed this topic, they would part on bad terms.
Jiang Motian also knew that her mother had a knot in her heart, so she guided her: "Take it slow, maybe one day Mobai will come around."
Actually... Jiang Motian only said half of what she meant.
She still had a sentence in her heart that she didn't say out loud.
And that sentence was: Maybe one day Mom will also come around and stop hoping for Jiang Mobai to retire...
Jiang Mobai in the room did not know about the conversation between the two people outside the door.
At this moment, he was staring at his phone.
Over the past two days, Jiang Mobai had used his own methods to suppress the negative comments about Su Kexuan on the internet.
He thought the matter would gradually subside.
But starting this morning, the criticism regarding Su Kexuan had actually made a comeback!
The more Jiang Mobai looked, the more restless he became.
Then, at a certain moment, he lost control.
"Damn it, which bastard is deliberately targeting Kexuan! Let me find them, I'll definitely skin them alive!!"
Jiang Mobai was aggressive, his eyes cold.
But he also knew that just losing his temper was useless.
So he ordered himself to calm down.
Afterwards, Jiang Mobai contacted someone.
The other party was a network expert.
It was precisely with his help that those bad comments had decreased so rapidly.
