Chapter 2197: Really Not Putting Anyone at Ease

Although tempted, Jiang Mobai did not show it.

He feigned calmness and said, "I can arrange for someone else to do this."

"Who could you find? Su Kexuan's friends? They would definitely stand on Su Kexuan's side and wouldn't help you."

"Or perhaps find Su Kexuan's employees? You might not get any information and end up exposing yourself instead."

"So you see, after thinking it over, only I am suitable. It just so happens that Su Kexuan has been coming to the factory very frequently lately; it's a god-given opportunity!"

Sui Xin kept promoting herself.

She hoped to break through Jiang Mobai's defenses.

But Jiang Mobai remained silent...

Sui Xin pursed her lips and had no choice but to take a risk, changing her approach: "Of course, I want a little reward for doing this."

She had bet correctly.

This time, Jiang Mobai responded: "What reward?"

"My stepmother is bringing my younger brother to this Hospital to see a specialist. I came here today to book an appointment with the specialist. But the slots are all full, so I wanted to ask... can we have a mutually beneficial arrangement?"

Sui Xin asked cautiously.

She was also very uneasy.

But she didn't wait long before she got Jiang Mobai's answer: "Fine."

The expected answer made Sui Xin's eyes light up.

She immediately thanked him: "Thank you so much! Don't worry, I will actively help you pass on information!"

"Watch your mouth, and don't say things you shouldn't. Also, don't call me; send a message if there's something."

"Understood, I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation!"

Jiang Mobai did not respond again.

He leaned over to sit in the car and then drove away.

Toward Sui Xin, Jiang Mobai was cold from beginning to end.

Yet Sui Xin was already satisfied!

Having achieved her wish, she was so happy she almost screamed on the spot!

As for Jiang Mobai...

He felt he had been impulsive to actually cooperate with Sui Xin.

However, he did not regret it.

At this moment, he kept feeling that the project Su Kexuan failed to secure had something to do with him.

Jiang Mobai...

Wanted to do something to make up for it.

On the other side, Su Kexuan did not yet know that Jiang Mobai was doing something dangerous.

As for the lost project, it didn't have much to do with Jiang Mobai.

It was because Su Kexuan had laid out her plans too late.

In some matters, being one step late means being completely out of the game.

Although Su Kexuan was disappointed, she would not dwell on it.

Business is business; if it doesn't shine in the east, it will shine in the west.

She would just find another project.

However, inside the company, it felt as if a hornet's nest had been poked.

It gave Su Kexuan a bit of a headache.

Fortunately, it was not difficult to handle.

Negotiating another deal would immediately shift the focus.

Su Kexuan began working overtime to screen for suitable new projects.

In the end, she set her sights on a newly established cultural media company.

Su Kexuan struck while the iron was hot and invited the person in charge to meet and discuss details.

But the person who met Su Kexuan at the coffee shop...

Was Li Xingyan.

Seeing Su Kexuan silently pursing her lips, Li Xingyan explained: "A newly established subsidiary."

"Alright then, as expected of you, truly blooming everywhere and developing in all aspects."

Su Kexuan said with a joke and then got down to business.

She said: "Since we are old acquaintances, let's skip the opening pleasantries. This is the cooperation proposal; take a look first."

Li Xingyan liked this way of cooperating very much.

Direct and efficient.

He was also very careful when reading the proposal.

If there was anything unclear, he would ask without shame.

Through the questions and answers, Li Xingyan understood the entire proposal.

After hesitating for a few minutes, Li Xingyan looked up at Su Kexuan: "Not bad, we can sign."

Su Kexuan knew that Li Xingyan was decisive in his actions.

But this time...

Wasn't it a bit too decisive?

Su Kexuan raised an eyebrow slightly and asked him: "Not going to negotiate the terms?"

"No need."

"That doesn't sound like your style."

Li Xingyan is a businessman who places great importance on profit.

Once a project reaches his hands, he is certain to maximize the profit.

Yet this time, he didn't fight for even the slightest bit...

It's suspicious.

Su Kexuan stared at him with suspicion.

And Li Xingyan accepted her gaze with composure.

In truth, the reason he could come today was because of Jiang Mobai's request.

Li Xingyan already knew about the absurd things Jiang Mobai had done.

And he also knew he wanted to make amends.

It just so happened that Su Kexuan's project was sent to the newly established company.

Li Xingyan then went with the flow, considering it a way to help his younger brother make amends.

But Li Xingyan was also clear that if this reason were spoken aloud, Su Kexuan would absolutely reject this cooperation opportunity.

Therefore, Li Xingyan changed his reason: "Having a reliable collaborator is much better than being overly calculating."

"Just because of this?"

"What else could it be for?"

Li Xingyan and Su Kexuan looked at each other, and neither of them avoided the other's gaze.

A moment later, Su Kexuan smiled first.

Then she said: "As expected of someone who is about to become a father, your perspective has become much more far-sighted."

"Alright, stop acting coy after getting the advantage."

"Hey, it's not easy to get an advantage from your hands; don't tell me I can't gloat a little."

"Have you gotten few advantages?"

Li Xingyan gave a light hum.

In his heart, he knew that Su Kexuan had given up on probing.

Regardless of whether she believed the reason he gave, the cooperation between the two could continue.

Li Xingyan's goal could also be considered accomplished.

With one worry resolved, Li Xingyan felt a bit more relaxed.

He saw that the coffee on the table had not been touched, so he reached out to take a sip.

But his cell phone suddenly rang.

Li Xingyan's fingers, which were on the cup, turned to pick up the phone instead.

Because he was in a good mood, his tone was slightly lighthearted when he answered the call: "What's wrong?"

Compared to the calm Li Xingyan, Jiang Motian on the other side of the phone was in a rush: "Brother, are you busy right now?"

"Not busy."

"Then hurry and come to Mobai's racing team!"

Jiang Motian's attitude made Li Xingyan put away his relaxed demeanor.

He asked: "Why go to the racing team?"

"It's like this..."

After that previous Friendly Match, Jiang Mobai's excellent performance had spread.

Jiang Mobai's former opponents did not want to see him make a comeback.

So they sent people to keep an eye on him.

And with this watching, they discovered that a special car would drive into the racing team every so often.

This group of people felt this car was suspicious, so they took advantage of a management loophole in the racing team to sneak in and investigate.

As a result, they caught a glimpse of Jiang Mobai undergoing electroshock therapy.

Jiang Mobai's pained expression and the sight of him covered in electrode pads made them feel as if they had found a treasure.

Just as this group was about to sneak a photo, they were discovered by people from the racing team.

The two sides began to confront each other.

One side said the other had trespassed and was acting without honor.

The other side said Jiang Mobai's rapid improvement in results was due to using underhanded methods.

The two sides argued back and forth, and it even turned into a physical altercation.

And as the key figure, Jiang Mobai had no intention of explaining at all.

He only wanted to beat people up!

Whoever talked nonsense, he would beat them up!

The racing team had no choice but to lock him and the doctor in a room first.

Then Wang Zi contacted Jiang Motian, wanting her to come and persuade Jiang Mobai to calm down.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly turned heavy, and the air seemed to freeze.
