Chapter 2165: Who Exactly Is That Person
The two of them walked up to an exhibition stand, chatting while looking at the exhibits.
Because there were quite a lot of people around, neither of them noticed that not far away, someone was listening to their conversation...
Jiang Mobai was quite conflicted.
As a member of the Li Family, he enjoyed the influence brought by the family.
But he did not want others to see only the power of the family.
And he even less wanted his own brilliance to be completely drowned out by the family...
Jiang Mobai was lost in his own thoughts.
In his ear, he heard Li Xingyan suddenly mention his name.
This made Jiang Mobai immediately prick up his ears.
"I heard you invested a sum of money in Mobai's racing team?"
"Yes, although the Second Young Master was injured and hasn't returned to the racetrack for a long time, I have a premonition that the Second Young Master will have a boundless future!"
The other party skillfully buttered him up.
Although very enthusiastic, it was also very insincere.
Li Xingyan didn't take these words to heart at all.
After the other party paused, he asked in a leisurely manner: "Who acted as the go-between?"
That Li Xingyan could ask this way meant he already knew something.
The investor understood what kind of temper Li Xingyan had.
If you speak properly, then it's fine.
If you deliberately lie to him...
I'm afraid it could really tick this person off.
The investor didn't dare to take the risk, but he didn't reveal Su Kexuan either.
He just said vaguely: "It was indeed introduced by someone; this kind of cooperation is mutually beneficial, there's no need to force an answer."
"What, this person doesn't want to reveal their identity?"
"Mr. Li truly has eyes like torches, you guessed it right away!"
The investor was a little worried that Li Xingyan would keep asking.
If he insisted on getting a result...
Then things would be a bit difficult to handle.
Nine times out of ten, he would still have to say Su Kexuan's name.
But Li Xingyan ended this topic.
This made the investor breathe a sigh of relief.
Jiang Mobai, hiding not far away, frowned instead.
He had thought it was Li Xingyan operating in the shadows that kept the investment coming.
As it turns out, it wasn't Li Xingyan?
And Li Xingyan didn't even know who that person was?
Jiang Mobai was confused.
Just at this moment, Jiang Mobai heard a burst of arguing.
Li Xingyan heard it too.
He looked over in the direction of the sound and happened to see several Security Guards and a manager standing in front of an exhibition stand.
The person in charge of the stand asked with a flushed face and thick neck: "Our paperwork is complete, on what grounds are you suddenly making us leave!"
"We discovered a safety hazard here; asking you to leave is also for your own responsibility."
"Fine, since there's a safety hazard, then put up the seal, and no one should be allowed to use it!"
"That wouldn't look very good; we will handle it properly."
"How will you handle it, by using someone else's advertisement to handle it!"
The event manager's expression changed.
Come to think of it, this time it was indeed a lapse in the exhibition organizer's work.
They had first signed a contract with Su Kexuan, and later designated this place as an exhibition area for another brand.
When interests conflicted, the event organizer could only choose one of the two.
Because Su Kexuan's strength was weaker than the other party's, she became the sacrificial lamb.
But the people under Su Kexuan refused to show weakness.
One by one, they stood there with cold expressions, not giving an inch.
Li Xingyan watched for a while nearby and guessed the cause and effect.
He called Su Kexuan and asked: "It seems like there's a bit of a mess on your end, do you need help? Oh, alright then."
After saying a few simple words, Li Xingyan hung up the phone.
He put his phone into his pocket.
At the same time, he tilted his head slightly and said to the person hiding behind him: "Aren't you curious how Su Kexuan is going to solve this?"
Jiang Mobai was curious, of course.
But he was even more curious... how did Li Xingyan discover him?
Jiang Mobai fidgeted for a moment, then walked over with a fake smile and said: "Your eyes are quite useful."
To this, Li Xingyan gave a light hum, which counted as a response.
"Um, when did you discover me?"
"At home."
To think it's this early!?
Jiang Mobai raised his eyebrows in surprise.
Because Wei Yangyang is currently pregnant, the young couple still lives at the Li Family Villa to better take care of her.
However, Wei Yangyang loves to sleep in and does not eat breakfast with everyone in the morning.
Wei Yangyang's breakfast is basically always delivered to her room by Li Xingyan personally.
And today, when delivering breakfast, Li Xingyan spotted Jiang Mobai acting suspiciously nearby.
Li Xingyan immediately kept a watchful eye on him.
Now, by using a small trick, he had caught him red-handed.
Jiang Mobai did not want to resign himself to his fate so quickly; he was still struggling in vain: "Actually, I was just curious and came here to take a look around."
Curious?
Just taking a look around?
Li Xingyan smiled and said nothing.
But the meaning expressed in his gaze was very clear:
I'm just watching to see what else you can make up!
Under that stare, Jiang Mobai's shoulders gradually slumped.
His psychological defense could no longer be maintained.
Finally, with a light sigh, Jiang Mobai admitted defeat.
With his eyes fixed on the ground, he asked a question in a muffled tone: "Do you... also know about the matter between me and Su Kexuan?"
"I know."
Li Xingyan's reply was simple and direct.
Yet it sounded very irritating to Jiang Mobai.
He muttered gloomily: "Sure enough, there are no secrets in this world!"
"If you can't keep your own mouth shut, don't blame others for spreading the word."
"Hey, no... is that any way to comfort someone!"
"Comfort you? How did you see that I was comforting you? Your eyesight is bad and needs treatment."
Jiang Mobai was already in a bad mood to begin with.
After being unceremoniously retorted by Li Xingyan, he felt even more depressed.
But seeing the noisy exhibition booth over there...
Jiang Mobai brought up the real business: "Don't you need to go over there and help out?"
"No need, Su Kexuan is already on her way and should be here soon."
"What, she's arriving already!"
Jiang Mobai was startled.
He subconsciously wanted to leave this place.
But after walking only a few steps, he realized that Li Xingyan was also following him as he left.
Jiang Mobai had to stop: "You're leaving too?"
"Otherwise?"
"You have to stay and help Su Kexuan handle the trouble!"
"Not necessary, she said she can handle it herself."
"Hey, Su Kexuan has always liked to act tough; it's better if you stay to be safe!"
"If you want to stay, then you stay."
Li Xingyan turned to leave after saying that.
Seeing this, Jiang Mobai simply blocked his path with his body and frowned: "How can you be so cold and heartless? Aren't you two friends!"
"Well, you two still have your old flame."
A single sentence left Jiang Mobai speechless.
His face turned purple from holding it in.
After grumbling for a while, he muttered reluctantly: "It's precisely because of that that it's inconvenient for me to show my face. Hey, you stay, you stay, consider it me owing you a favor!"
While speaking, Jiang Mobai completely blocked Li Xingyan's path.
It looked very much like he would lie down if he didn't agree.
Li Xingyan was speechless.
But fortunately, in the end, he did not insist on leaving.
Having gotten his way, Jiang Mobai put on a smile again.
He even took the initiative to pick up a promotional flyer to fan Li Xingyan, saying as he fanned: "This is cooler!"
"Stay further away from me, and I'll be even cooler."
"Fine, fine, fine, I'll listen to everything you say!"
Jiang Mobai's attitude was exceptionally good.
At the same time, his eyes darted around, preparing to hide immediately the moment Su Kexuan appeared so that the two of them wouldn't run into each other.
Li Beijue's expression darkened instantly; he stared coldly at Jiang Baobao, his voice sounding as if it were squeezed through his teeth: "Say that again?"
【118】 Li Beijue's expression sank in an instant; he stared coldly at Jiang Baobao, his voice sounding as if it were squeezed out from between his teeth: "Say that again?"
