Chapter 2268: Worries from a Sister

~7 min read 1,315 words

The housekeeper was trembling with fear.

He hung his head and explained uneasily, "The package delivered by the courier—I thought it was yours, so I placed it in the storage room. I didn't expect the box to be broken, and the things inside to have escaped..."

"I don't want to hear excuses! I only know that if there were a bomb in this box, I would certainly be dead today!!"

Chu Tiankuo's roar made everyone in the room shiver.

The housekeeper also knew that it was his own dereliction of duty that had caused the chaos, so he hurriedly admitted his mistake: "I'm sorry, sir. No matter what is received in the future, I will definitely check it carefully!"

"You still want there to be a future? If you can't find out where the things came from today, none of you should expect to get off easily!"

Chu Tiankuo's angry roar made the servants' faces look even worse.

But fortunately, the housekeeper had already sent people to investigate when the incident occurred.

At this moment, he had already grasped the key information: "The one who sent the courier package is Su Kexuan's boyfriend, the second young master of the Li Family!"

Boyfriend...

Chu Tiankuo muttered these three words.

Then he suddenly revealed a ferocious smile: "If he wanted to hide his identity and act anonymously, it would be impossible to be discovered so quickly. It seems this second young master of the Li Family is declaring war on me!"

"Then... what do you intend to do?"

"Since he likes to play so much, I'll play a good game with him!"

Chu Zhu revealed a sinister smile.

His laughter became increasingly piercing, making the servants terrified.

It could be foreseen that that second young master of the Li Family would definitely be in for bad luck.

But it was also fortunate that this person was exposed, successfully diverting the master's anger.

Otherwise...

Everyone today would not have escaped this disaster!

Early morning, Li Family—

After breakfast, Jiang Motian prepared to go out to the Art Studio.

While going downstairs, she saw Li Moning sitting on the sofa fiddling with a camera, so she stopped and chatted with her for a moment: "A newly bought camera?"

"Yeah!"

"But the model you just bought doesn't seem as good as your old one."

"The new camera is for photography class. If I take a camera worth over a hundred thousand, it'll be a bit out of place, so I bought a cheaper one."

Li Moning's explanation made Jiang Motian suddenly understand.

But this photography class...

Jiang Motian asked: "Is it a photography class arranged by the school?"

"Yeah, it only started this week, and the instructor is someone you would never expect!"

As Li Moning said this, she revealed a mysterious look.

Looking at her lively appearance, Jiang Motian couldn't help but curl her lips, then took the opportunity to ask: "Who is it?"

"Qingkong!"

This answer indeed surprised Jiang Motian.

She raised her eyebrows slightly and asked: "Qingkong is very busy, how could he go to your school to teach?"

"Because Sister Kexuan helped."

This answer still surprised Jiang Motian.

And beyond the surprise, she was also a bit unsettled.

After thinking about it, Jiang Motian decided not to go to the Art Studio first.

She wanted to find Su Kexuan to talk!

But after arriving at Su Kexuan's company, Jiang Motian was unable to see Su Kexuan immediately.

Because Su Kexuan was too busy.

Jiang Motian waited for quite a while before she could wait for her in the conference room.

"What a rare guest." Su Kexuan said, sitting opposite Jiang Motian with a smile.

The long wait had already left Jiang Motian with no patience.

So she didn't lay any groundwork and went straight to the point: "I heard that Qingkong is going to teach a photography class to Momo and the others, is that really true?"

"Yes."

"And you were the one who contacted him?"

"That's right."

Confirming there was no misunderstanding, Jiang Motian asked anxiously and puzzledly: "Why help with this favor?"

"I asked, and the school did need a photography teacher who could teach. Since Qingkong wasn't busy, I just helped out."

"But regarding Momo..."

Jiang Motian's words were not finished.

But Su Kexuan understood what she meant.

She patted the back of Jiang Motian's hand and comforted her: "You shouldn't treat Qingkong like a monster. You know, in matters of feelings, blocking is not as good as guiding."

"So... you also feel that Momo has ideas about Qingkong?"

Su Kexuan did not hide it and nodded gently.

Her action added a few more shades of worry to Jiang Motian's face.

However, Su Kexuan did not think Jiang Motian needed to worry.

She continued, "Let Momo have more contact with Qingkong, and she will discover that the two of them are not a good match; that enthusiasm will naturally fade."

"What if it doesn't fade?"

"Momo is also a proud girl; if she waits for a response for too long, she surely won't be able to keep it up."

Jiang Motian thought about it and felt that what Su Kexuan said made sense.

However...

Her eyes turned, and she asked, "Should we say something to Qingkong and have him cooperate?"

"Cooperate?"

"Yes, when Qingkong is with Momo, he could restrain his charm. If he could deliberately show a side that Momo doesn't like, that would be even better!"

The more Jiang Motian spoke, the more reliable she felt it was, and her eyes even gained a bit of luster.

Su Kexuan, however, shook her head: "I also considered your suggestion, but I worry that if Qingkong finds out about this, he might very well go abroad directly to avoid suspicion."

"Isn't that even better?!"

Although Jiang Motian did not doubt Qingkong's character.

But if the cooperation went poorly, it could very well backfire.

But if Qingkong disappeared from Li Moning's life, wouldn't all the problems be solved?

Su Kexuan saw her thoughts from Jiang Motian's expression.

Immediately, she gave her friend a reminder: "If Qingkong leaves suddenly, then this affection will become a lingering regret in Momo's heart. If it's serious, she might even close off her heart and miss out on future romance."

"This..."

Su Kexuan's words were something Jiang Motian hadn't considered.

For a moment, she didn't know what to say.

Seeing Jiang Motian's brows tightly furrowed and her whole body tense, Su Kexuan patted her shoulder and advised, "Relax a little, and give Momo some trust."

Jiang Motian let out a long breath.

Then she murmured, "Actually, I didn't take this matter to heart at first, but seeing this girl less and less able to hide the feelings in her eyes, I only then slowly started to worry."

"It's okay to have feelings; affection is not a flood or a wild beast. After experiencing it personally, one will grow a lot."

Su Kexuan's unhurried words caused Jiang Motian to look over.

She couldn't help but tease, "I remember before, you didn't have this kind of outlook. How come after being with Mobai, your values have changed?"

"Have my values changed? I don't feel that way."

"They have changed, and quite a bit at that!"

Jiang Motian was about to say something more.

But Su Kexuan kept having calls coming in.

Taking advantage of the gap while Su Kexuan hung up the phone, Jiang Motian stood up: "Alright, you get busy first."

"If there's anything, call me again."

"There shouldn't be anything for now. I just hope Qingkong doesn't have any ideas about my sister, otherwise... I'll make him regret it!"

Jiang Motian's threat made Su Kexuan shake her head helplessly.

As for Qingkong...

Li Beijue's expression darkened instantly, and he stared coldly at Jiang Baobao, his voice sounding as if it were being squeezed through his teeth: "Say that again?"
