Chapter 2151: Why Is She Completely Unaffected?
Jiang Mobai truly did not understand how he had managed to anger Su Kexuan to such an extent.
Su Kexuan, naturally, could not give him an answer right now.
If Jiang Mobai wanted to know the reason, he could only deduce it from the clues himself.
Once he managed to piece a thing or two together, perhaps the reason Su Kexuan had distanced herself from him all those years ago would surface.
Would it still be far off for the two of them to reconcile?
Jiang Mobai constantly comforted himself.
It was just that deep in his heart...
... there was a thick sense of unease.
Inside the Zhanlanguan, Qingkong's second solo exhibition was being held.
The scene continued to receive constant praise.
There were also many excellent works.
But if one were to ask which had the highest popularity...
... it had to be the photos of Jiang Mobai.
That handsome appearance made many girls' hearts flutter.
At this moment, several female fans were admiring the photos while exclaiming, "No matter how many times I look at them, I feel that Brother Mobai is devastatingly handsome!"
"This Qingkong is just too good at taking photos!"
"Exactly!"
"But then again, Brother Mobai on the racetrack is also very charming, full of hormones!"
"I really hope to see Brother Mobai return to the racetrack soon."
"Yes, yes!"
Several girls were chatting enthusiastically.
Yet they had no idea that the Brother Mobai they were longing for was standing not far from them.
Jiang Mobai wore a baseball cap, his arms crossed over his chest.
Jiang Motian, who was beside him, was also wearing a hat.
However, her hat was a bit cuter, with a fur ball on the very top.
The fur ball swayed as Jiang Motian turned her head to look at Jiang Mobai, teasing, "How does it feel to be complimented?"
"It doesn't feel like anything; what they like is the Jiang Mobai they've imagined, not the real me."
"Yo, your self-awareness is quite accurate; it seems you've matured quite a bit during this time."
The playful remark caused Jiang Mobai to glance at her sideways.
He asked, "Is your next sentence going to be that you are very gratified?"
Hmm...
Jiang Motian really had intended to say that.
But since Jiang Mobai had beaten her to it, she could only say...
"It's Mom who is very gratified!"
Jiang Mobai knew that Jiang Motian had changed her words on the spot.
He did not probe further, gave a light hum, and withdrew his gaze.
At the same time, someone recognized Jiang Mobai.
That person had been staring at him.
Once she confirmed his identity, she walked straight over.
Unlike the excitement of the female fans, this person was very calm, smiling faintly as she greeted Jiang Mobai: "It really is you; I almost thought I had recognized the wrong person."
The one speaking was Sui Xin.
Jiang Mobai looked at her and nodded slightly, which counted as a greeting.
Sui Xin pointed behind her and said, "I brought some friends to show you some support; these photos are truly taken well."
"Thanks, please feel free to look around."
"Mm, then I won't disturb you."
Jiang Mobai's attitude was very cold.
Sui Xin, however, did not mind.
After speaking decorously, she smiled at Jiang Motian as well, then turned and walked away.
Jiang Motian was stunned.
She murmured, "This Sui Xin seems like a different person."
The current Sui Xin was poised and completely natural.
She no longer had that crazy obsession with Jiang Mobai.
This was a good thing.
It was just that...
... can a person really change so thoroughly?
Jiang Motian felt suspicious.
Jiang Mobai, however, looked indifferent, saying, "Whether she has changed or not has nothing to do with me."
His attitude made Jiang Motian look up at the sky helplessly.
Then she complained, "Can you stop acting half-dead all the time?"
Jiang Mobai had been acting strange these past few days.
Even Jiang Baobao couldn't stand it anymore.
That was why Jiang Motian brought him out to clear his head.
To stir up Jiang Mobai's mood, Jiang Motian brought him to the Zhanlanguan.
She thought that if Jiang Mobai saw his own dashing photos, he might have a bit more vitality.
As it turned out, he was still in this state!
Actually, Jiang Motian also roughly knew the reason for Jiang Mobai's low spirits.
Pursing her lips, Jiang Motian opened her mouth to ask a question: "I wanted to ask you two days ago, what happened between you and Kexuan?"
"Nothing!"
When Jiang Mobai spoke, his voice was muffled.
And this was what "nothing" looked like?
It only proved that the problem lay with Su Kexuan!
But Jiang Motian did not press him.
Instead, she chatted as if making small talk, bringing up Su Kexuan: "We exercised with Kexuan yesterday, and she praised us for making great progress. I think this is what they mean by 'a great teacher produces a brilliant student'."
Jiang Mobai scoffed, "She was just coaxing you to make you happy, don't take it seriously."
"That's not true, Kexuan is very strict. If we don't do well, she really criticizes us and even makes us do extra training."
"Then... when she trains you, is she serious?"
"Not at all, we talk and laugh, it's very fun. Oh right, Kexuan even shared some interesting stories with us. Let me tell you..."
"No need, I don't want to hear it!"
Jiang Mobai interrupted Jiang Motian very irritably, while simultaneously turning his body away, with his back to Jiang Motian.
In a place where Jiang Motian could not see, Jiang Mobai was grinding his teeth.
These days, Jiang Mobai could neither eat nor sleep well; he was either researching what exactly had happened back then or thinking about how he had made Su Kexuan angry.
As a result, he was the only one suffering.
Su Kexuan had long since acted like nothing had happened!
Jiang Mobai felt aggrieved.
He also felt a bit of injustice!
However, just as Jiang Mobai was feeling indignant, he heard... laughter?
The laughter grew louder and louder, and Jiang Mobai could not help but turn his head to look.
Seeing Jiang Mobai looking at her, Jiang Motian hurriedly pursed her lips.
But even so, a shallow laugh still spilled from the corners of her lips.
"What is so funny about this!?"
"Sorry, it's just... you look like a child who hasn't gotten any candy!"
"Not only did I not get candy, I am clearly suffering!"
"But you are willing to suffer for it."
"I..."
Jiang Mobai's lips moved, but he was unable to refute it.
Seeing Jiang Mobai instantly deflate, Jiang Motian advised: "Since you have made your choice, be more composed."
"The things in my hands are a tangled mess, it's hard to be composed."
Mentioning this, Jiang Mobai felt a headache.
His fingers were still pressed against his temples, rubbing them.
Seeing this, Jiang Motian asked with concern: "I heard from Wanyi that he helped you look into some things. Are those things helpful to you?"
"They have some use."
"Then do you want me to help you brainstorm a bit more?"
Jiang Mobai did indeed want to find someone to share the burden with.
That person needed to be meticulous.
Jiang Motian was indeed a good choice.
But...
She was Jiang Mobai's younger sister.
A brother revealing emotional problems to his younger sister...
It was just too embarrassing!
Jiang Mobai hurriedly shook his head.
Jiang Motian asked in confusion: "Why can't I?"
"Because, it's hard to put into words!"
This answer made Jiang Motian narrow her eyes.
That look was full of deep meaning.
Jiang Mobai saw it and hurriedly corrected himself: "It's not as hard to put into words as you think!"
Look, Jiang Mobai had only said four words, and he was already acting awkward.
If he were to tell the whole story from beginning to end...
He would likely never be able to hold his head up in front of Jiang Motian for the rest of his life!
Therefore, Jiang Mobai steeled his resolve.
