Chapter 2129: Don't Waste the Opportunity I Gave You

~7 min read 1,285 words

Su Kexuan did not answer him, but merely nudged her elbow backward, and Jiang Mobai automatically fell silent.

Afterward, she explained to Qingkong with a calm expression: "Complaining is one thing, but I said he wouldn't do such a thing, so he won't!"

"Can you vouch for him?"

"I can!"

Qingkong suddenly raised an eyebrow.

Then, he softened his attitude: "Fine, for your sake, I'll let him off today. But I'll give him a week at most; he must resolve this matter!"

A week?

Jiang Mobai felt this was a slight against his abilities.

His head grew hot, and he corrected him: "A week is too long, five days is enough!"

As soon as the words fell, the two people over there glared at him in unison.

But the reasons for their glares were different.

Su Kexuan felt that Jiang Mobai did not know the depth of the situation.

He hadn't even grasped the full situation yet, and he was already blurting out five days; what would he do if the time came and it wasn't resolved?

As for Qingkong, he felt that Jiang Mobai's clever brain was a fake!

He had already told Jiang Mobai that he was creating an opportunity for him, so why didn't he know to ask for a few more days to have more contact with Su Kexuan?

The two people's dissatisfied gazes left Jiang Mobai a bit dumbfounded.

He also felt a bit lacking in confidence and asked tentatively: "What's wrong?"

"Nothing," Su Kexuan had already adjusted her emotions, and then said, "Five days it is. Now, let everyone exchange the information they know."

On Qingkong's side, there was nothing to exchange.

He was like a tool, having been splashed with dirty water for no reason.

But on Jiang Mobai's side, there was plenty to say.

And after listening to his sharing, Su Kexuan said firmly: "That reporter has a problem! And that missing letter... give it to me, I will send it for inspection."

"I brought the letters, I have both of them on me!"

Jiang Mobai rummaged through his pockets.

Then he placed the two letters on the table.

But of these two letters, one was folded neatly.

The other, however, was crumpled into a ball.

Seeing Su Kexuan frowning at the crumpled paper, Jiang Mobai said a bit awkwardly: "Uh... I was emotionally agitated for a moment."

Su Kexuan made no comment.

She unfolded the paper ball and said: "I'll have a friend check it in a while, as for the reporter..."

"I plan to ask Xie Wanyi for help; his information is more well-informed!"

Hearing Jiang Mobai's suggestion, Su Kexuan did not object.

But Qingkong had a question to ask: "You two, haven't you suspected that model?"

That had certainly been suspected.

And Su Kexuan had already taken action.

She said: "The moment the incident happened, I already contacted that model's agency."

"What did the other side say?"

"They were just playing tai chi, saying they didn't know what was going on either, and that the model was frightened, just crying, and her emotional state was very bad."

It was indeed playing tai chi.

Jiang Mobai complained indignantly: "She was the one causing trouble, yet she's still playing the victim! I think that company is in on it with her too!"

"The company's attitude is very ambiguous, but to say they planned it... they wouldn't dare, after all, no one dares to offend the Li Family."

Qingkong retorted: "You say they wouldn't dare to offend them, but didn't they still drag Jiang Mobai into it?"

This...

Su Kexuan was silent for a moment, then looked at Jiang Mobai: "Have you offended anyone recently?"

Before Jiang Mobai could speak, Qingkong snapped his fingers: "You also think the other party is targeting Jiang Mobai, right!"

Qingkong felt he had found an ally.

But Jiang Mobai refuted this idea of his: "I've been recuperating, who could I have offended?"

"What about romantic debts?"

"I haven't had much contact with the opposite sex since I returned to the country, oh, the female model I met at the shooting site that day, she barely counts as one!"

When Jiang Mobai spoke, he was a bit sulky.

His attitude wasn't great either.

But it reminded Su Kexuan.

Afterward, her gaze drifted between Qingkong and Jiang Mobai.

Qingkong was frightened by her scrutiny.

He rubbed his arms and negotiated: "Say something, looking at people like this is a bit scary."

Su Kexuan followed his lead and began to analyze: "This incident calculated both of you into it, and both of you had disputes with that model..."

Jiang Mobai understood something, and he hurriedly said: "So we still have to start with this female model!"

"That's right, let's continue to investigate following this clue."

Jiang Mobai nodded, feeling the strength in his body stirring.

He decided, once he found the mastermind who dared to plot against him...

They must be taught a harsh lesson!

After Su Kexuan finished speaking to Jiang Mobai, she instructed Qingkong, "As for your side, work needs to be paused."

"Fine, it just so happens I can go film the local customs and culture of this city."

Qingkong really likes to film while walking.

In this process, it brings him many surprises.

It also allows him to settle down.

It's just that...

His reaction made Su Kexuan look sideways at him.

She asked, "Are you not anxious at all?"

Anxious about what? Qingkong felt his work had been too busy lately, so pausing for a while suited him perfectly.

But Su Kexuan's probing gaze...

Qingkong did not tell her his true thoughts.

Instead, he urged, "I'm just shifting my focus; and as for you two, you promised me five days, so you must keep your word."

"Understood. You be careful these next few days too, and if there is any new information, contact us in time."

"Mm."

"Then get some rest."

Su Kexuan left after saying this.

Seeing this, Jiang Mobai prepared to follow.

But he was grabbed by Qingkong.

Jiang Mobai frowned and asked, "What are you doing?"

"In these next few days, be a bit sharper, and don't waste the opportunity again!"

Waste the opportunity...

In this instant, Jiang Mobai understood everything!

Then he was filled with regret.

Watching his sudden realization, Qingkong gave a soft hum: "Your reaction time is truly long enough, but since things have reached this point, just perform well."

"Rest assured, I definitely won't let down the opportunity you gave me!"

Jiang Mobai patted his own chest and went to chase after Su Kexuan.

Qingkong followed the momentum to the doorway and looked off into the distance.

With Jiang Mobai's inconvenient legs and feet, he certainly wouldn't be able to catch up to Su Kexuan.

However...

If someone were to deliberately slow down their pace and wait, then Jiang Mobai could still clumsily catch up.

Having seen the truth clearly, Qingkong curled the corners of his lips.

Inside the tea room, two women sat around a rustic tea table.

A pot of hot water was boiling on the table.

Along with the "gurgle-gurgle" sound, a puff of steam rose up.

From within the steam, a fair hand reached out, took hold of the pot handle, and skillfully brewed a cup of hot tea.

Su Kexuan pushed the hot tea toward the female model sitting opposite her.

At this moment, the female model's face was pale.

She looked like she was indeed in a bad state.

But this incident had caused her fame to soar.

She went straight from being a moderately famous model to the top of the trending search list.

She thanked Su Kexuan and held the cup with both hands.
