Chapter 2220: Ensuring Not to Alert the Enemy

~7 min read 1,365 words

Jiang Mobai said with a serious face, "Is even a casual remark of mine so funny? It seems you need to spend more time with me; it can relieve stress."

"Forget it, I'm worried my IQ will be affected by you."

After Su Kexuan finished speaking, she smiled and returned to her room.

As for Jiang Mobai, he hurriedly found a piece of reflective glass and looked at his face from left to right.

Finally, he muttered to himself in evaluation: "It's just easy to be handsome enough to faint; this face is truly perfect!"

Su Kexuan did not hear these words.

Otherwise...

She would definitely give him a huge eye-roll.

The next day—

Su Kexuan and Jiang Mobai went out after eating breakfast.

Because it was the morning rush hour, the road was a bit congested.

Su Kexuan took advantage of this time to look at new messages on her phone.

While Jiang Mobai looked out the window in boredom.

After watching for a short while, he narrowed his eyes.

"There's a car following us!"

After Jiang Mobai said this, he watched for Su Kexuan's reaction.

He had already made up his mind that if Su Kexuan felt afraid, he would immediately comfort her.

As it turned out...

Su Kexuan didn't even lift her head, and her voice had no fluctuation: "It's someone from the company, it doesn't matter."

Her reaction actually left Jiang Mobai stunned.

The next second, he furrowed his brows: "Why is someone from the company following you? Who is he, what are his intentions? Could he be harboring evil designs against you?"

Jiang Mobai's expression had already turned serious.

The questions also came one after another.

But Su Kexuan did not intend to answer them all; she only said vaguely: "He doesn't have the guts, rest assured."

Jiang Mobai was not reassured.

He also saw that Su Kexuan did not want to communicate about this matter with him.

Since that was the case...

Then he could only investigate it himself!

Jiang Mobai silently noted down the license plate number.

Then he tapped away on his phone screen.

Su Kexuan's peripheral vision caught Jiang Mobai's little movements.

She sighed softly.

Then she said: "The other party should be one of President Zhong's people; he has been looking for trouble with me recently, wanting me to hand over the actual management rights of the company."

Su Kexuan said this, wanting Jiang Mobai to stop meddling in this matter.

Who knew, things would go contrary to her wishes.

Jiang Mobai's tone was impatient: "Since that's the case, root this person out to prevent future trouble!"

"I am in the middle of rooting them out."

"Then do you need help?"

"No need, everything is proceeding in an orderly manner."

Jiang Mobai could see that Su Kexuan was indeed being orderly.

It was just that...

Wasn't she taking it too lightly?

People had already chased them right to their tails, and she still wouldn't give them a taste of their own medicine?

In any case, Jiang Mobai didn't understand.

His fingers still secretly touched his phone, preparing to continue sending messages.

Su Kexuan saw his movements, so she raised an eyebrow and asked: "What, don't you trust me?"

Jiang Mobai hurriedly sat up straight: "How could that be! I just want to help you check on this person again to see if any information was missed!"

"Doesn't that still mean you don't trust me?"

"No, no, no, this is called being prepared! What if I can find some useful information? Even if I can't, there's no loss, right?"

"But you will alert the enemy."

"I'm just checking information, I won't take action. I promise you, I will do what I say!"

As Jiang Mobai spoke, he raised his hand and pressed it against his heart.

The expression on his face was particularly innocent.

Staring at Su Kexuan's eyes, they were dark and moist.

He looked particularly like a...

Seal.

Being stared at by such a pair of eyes, it was truly hard not to soften one's heart.

Su Kexuan's firm heart was softening bit by bit.

Finally, she sighed softly and still compromised: "If you can't do what you say and ruin my plans, I will..."

"You can do whatever you want, I am at your disposal!"

Jiang Mobai promised with a look of grand heroism.

To appear even more heroic, he even patted his own chest.

Su Kexuan did not think this action was particularly heroic.

On the contrary, it was silly.

Glancing at Jiang Mobai again, Su Kexuan withdrew her gaze.

And her silence let Jiang Mobai know that this was tacit consent!

Happy!

This time, Jiang Mobai openly took out his phone to contact a friend.

In the gap between communicating, he reached out and fished a lollipop out of his pocket.

Then he stretched it out in front of Su Kexuan.

Su Kexuan glanced at it and said uninterestedly, "I'm not a child, I'm not eating that."

"Who says only children can eat them? Are you discriminating against adults?"

"Say whatever you want, anyway I won't..."

Su Kexuan was in the middle of speaking.

But she didn't expect Jiang Mobai to tear open the lollipop's wrapper and stuff it into Su Kexuan's mouth!

This jerk...

Su Kexuan glared at Jiang Mobai, her expression unkind.

Jiang Mobai, however, smiled like a little wolf dog and asked, "Isn't it actually quite tasty?"

"... It's average!"

"Average? Then I'll have one too!"

Jiang Mobai fished another lollipop out of his pocket.

He tore off the wrapper in a few quick motions and put it in his mouth.

"Mmm, such a fragrant watermelon flavor, delicious!"

Jiang Mobai said, revealing an intoxicated expression.

Su Kexuan did not understand.

It was just a lollipop.

Did it have to be this exaggerated?

But then again, eating the sweet lollipop while looking at the tedious messages on her phone, her head didn't hurt quite as much.

Su Kexuan relaxed her body.

Without her noticing, the brow that had been furrowing from time to time completely smoothed out.

Jiang Mobai noticed this small detail.

He curled the corners of his lips.

After looking at the message about President Zhong sent by his friend on his phone, Jiang Mobai's eyes became deep.

On the other side—

When President Zhong learned that Su Kexuan and Jiang Mobai had gone out together early in the morning, he was so scared he almost fell off his chair!

This could not be blamed on President Zhong for being surprised.

Although there had always been people watching Su Kexuan.

Ever since President Zhong began monitoring Su Kexuan, Jiang Mobai had not left the house.

So President Zhong had no idea that Su Kexuan and Jiang Mobai were living together.

Now he knew.

He was completely panicked!

A confidant stood next to President Zhong and asked anxiously, "President Zhong, what should we do now?"

"What else can we do? The plan has already started, it must be executed!"

"But the Li Family..."

"Didn't I say before? As long as Su Kexuan's reputation is ruined, the Li Family won't care about her!"

"I'm just afraid that if Su Kexuan's reputation isn't ruined... we'll be the ones in trouble!"

These words sounded truly ominous.

But... it wasn't impossible for it to happen.

President Zhong slowly calmed down.

He thought for a while with a grim expression, then narrowed his eyes, his voice dangerous: "It seems the plan needs to be accelerated!"

"This... isn't the company trying to secure investment? Can't we wait until the investment is in place before..."

"By then it will be too late! We must move the plan forward, disrupt Su Kexuan's arrangements, and make all the forces that originally supported her turn against her!"

President Zhong understood Su Kexuan very well.

She was a proud woman.

Facing a mess of a company, she could not possibly swallow her pride and beg the Li Family.

She would only use her own strength to turn the tide.

And when that time came, she would have no choice but to choose the company he recommended for investment.

And then...

A sinister grin suddenly appeared on President Zhong's face.
