Chapter 2267: Giving Him a Little Gift
Rubbing her arm, Li Moning complained to Su Kexuan with a look of disgust: "It's just dating, why has my second brother become so clingy?"
"He has always been very clingy."
"Really? I never noticed before!"
"Maybe he hid it well."
"So that's how it is."
Seeing the two of them chatting again as if no one else were around, Jiang Mobai furrowed his brows and shouted: "You're ignoring me again, aren't you!"
Su Kexuan said helplessly: "I am already placating you; it's you who are unsatisfied."
"Your placating has no sincerity at all!"
"Then what would count as having sincerity?"
Jiang Mobai's eyes darted, and he was about to open his mouth to say something.
But remembering that Li Moning was still there, Jiang Mobai closed his lips again, turning instead to wink ambiguously at Su Kexuan.
Su Kexuan immediately understood Jiang Mobai's little intentions.
Jiang Mobai was young and vigorous, and he was very good at wearing people out in bed.
If she let him have his way, Su Kexuan wouldn't be able to handle it.
But since Li Moning was still here, Su Kexuan couldn't say much, so she could only mumble: "Let's talk about it later."
"Then I'll take that as a yes!"
Su Kexuan looked at Jiang Mobai silently, telling him to stop while he was ahead.
Jiang Mobai, however, kept smiling, pretending he didn't understand.
Li Moning, on the other hand, really didn't understand.
She asked: "What kind of riddles are you two speaking in?"
Jiang Mobai didn't explain either, only saying with a smile: "Little kids shouldn't go around asking about things."
"Don't you dare call me a little kid!"
"Alright, alright, you're not a little kid, you're a big kid."
"You..."
"Fine, I'll go back to cutting fruit for you all!"
Jiang Mobai's mood improved instantly, and he hummed a tune as he went to the kitchen.
Li Moning complained to Su Kexuan with puffed-up cheeks: "Second brother is so annoying, you shouldn't pay attention to him either!"
Not pay attention?
Then this guy would just get even worse.
Su Kexuan felt a bit helpless and shook her head with a smile.
Soon, the fruit was cut and brought over.
Li Moning was already annoyed to begin with.
Looking at the poorly arranged fruit, she immediately became critical: "Why is it cut so messily?"
"Little girl, you should be grateful you have something to eat!"
"You have a girlfriend now, you can't just slack off, otherwise how will you take good care of Sister Kexuan?"
"Yo, are you actually lecturing me now?"
"I just can't stand it! Big brother takes such good care of sister-in-law at home."
Li Moning's nitpicking made Jiang Mobai lose a bit of face.
Su Kexuan helped smooth things over: "I don't need to be taken care of."
"Whether you need it is one thing, whether my second brother can do it is another."
Li Moning's words were very reasonable.
Jiang Mobai even began to reflect on whether he really hadn't taken good care of Su Kexuan.
Fortunately, he quickly snapped out of it.
Then he realized that he had actually been influenced by the little girl!
How embarrassing!
Luckily, no one noticed Jiang Mobai's oddity.
He was still able to put on a show and crack a couple of jokes: "Alright, those romance novels you read before didn't go to waste."
"Don't bring up the past, I only read profound books now!"
"Profound? You and that word don't even belong in the same sentence."
"That's your prejudice; I'm a very deep person now!"
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're the deepest of them all."
Jiang Mobai couldn't be bothered to nag with the little girl anymore; he poked a piece of watermelon and fed it to Su Kexuan.
Come to think of it, this watermelon was actually quite sweet.
Su Kexuan was just about to let Jiang Mobai have a taste too, when she heard a knock at the door first.
They all assumed it was the takeout they had ordered.
But when they opened the door...
They saw a delivery person placing a large box on the ground.
After having Jiang Mobai sign the delivery confirmation, the delivery person left.
"What is it, being this big?"
Jiang Mobai muttered, and was about to unpack the delivery.
But Su Kexuan suddenly called out to him: "Wait a moment!"
Jiang Mobai stopped his movements and turned back to look at Su Kexuan.
Su Kexuan had already turned her expression serious, and she knitted her brows as she asked: "Is this a package you bought?"
"No, I haven't bought anything recently."
"I didn't buy anything either, so... don't touch it!"
Jiang Mobai heard what Su Kexuan was being wary of, and for a moment, his own brows were also tightly knitted.
Just as the three people in the room were staring at each other over the box, the racing team manager called Jiang Mobai.
"Mobai, have you received the items?"
"Items?"
"Didn't you say earlier that you needed a few car parts? I contacted the factory for you, and they manufactured them overnight and sent a batch to you."
So, it was parts in this box...
Jiang Mobai let out a sigh of relief.
After exchanging a few more pleasantries with the manager, Jiang Mobai hung up the phone.
Su Kexuan had already heard the conversation between Jiang Mobai and the racing team manager.
She knew she had overthought things, so she said: "Sorry, it was a false alarm."
"It's never wrong to be careful, but as for Chu Tiankuo, it certainly won't be a false alarm."
As Jiang Mobai said this, a smug expression appeared on his face.
However, he quickly reined in this trace of smugness and pretended that nothing had happened.
But could Su Kexuan let him get away with fooling her?
She stared at Jiang Mobai without blinking and asked: "What did you do?"
Jiang Mobai immediately put on an innocent expression: "I didn't do anything."
"Then what you just said..."
"Oh, I meant that since Chu Tiankuo has done so many bad things, he will definitely face retribution!"
This guy was acting too deliberately, and Su Kexuan raised her eyebrows slightly: "Do you think I'm a three-year-old child? Retribution, even if there is retribution, it must be what you added onto him!"
"I..."
"It doesn't matter what you did, but you cannot hide it from me; it makes me very passive."
Under Su Kexuan's increasingly serious stare, Jiang Mobai could only choose to tell the truth: "Actually, I just sent a few 'little' gifts to his house to make his life a little less monotonous."
When Jiang Mobai spoke, the smile on his face was a bit evil.
At the same time, on the other side of the ocean—
Chu Tiankuo looked at the toads running all over the room, and his face turned green.
The servants found nets to catch the toads.
But these things looked clumsy, yet their movements were very agile.
Moreover, they were slippery, and after catching them for a long time, they hadn't caught many.
Instead, the catching attempts forced the toads to hop all over the room.
Chu Tiankuo felt that whatever these toads touched became dirty.
Just as Chu Tiankuo's expression became increasingly ugly, he felt something brush across the top of his foot.
He lowered his head to look...
Chu Tiankuo immediately roared: "How are there snakes too!?"
Hearing his shout, the servants felt their scalps go numb.
Snakes were even more troublesome than toads.
And there was no telling if they were poisonous!
If things went poorly, some might have already run into the courtyard!
The servants were miserable.
Finally, after a long time, the disgusting things were cleaned up.
Although Chu Tiankuo did not catch them himself.
His nerves were highly tense, and his breathing was rapid.
His entire appearance was very disheveled.
He hadn't been this disheveled in a long time, and in his anger, he grabbed a servant at random and gave them a fierce beating.
Afterward, he shouted at the others: "Are you all pigs? How could you let these things run into the house!?"
