Chapter 288: Taking the Shortcut First
Taking this into account, the private detective immediately went to surveil Huang Zhengming; as for the director's side, he likewise kept an eye on the other party.
However——
Upon learning of Huang Zhengming's affairs, the director's side became much more restrained.
He dare not act recklessly!
Now Huang Zhengming has become a street rat that all major companies still shout to beat and kill; no one is willing to cooperate with him.
Someone like him.
If he really cooperated with the other side, he feared that in the end it would truly be like lifting a stone only to smash his own foot.
To avoid trouble, he dare not act recklessly.
Fortunately, the previous attempts had not gone smoothly; otherwise, he feared that once things succeeded, Huang Zhengming's side would just happen to run into trouble, and if any of his deeds were investigated, who would then spare no effort to redeem them?
Better not!
Huang Zhengming was unwilling.
Unwilling to see success within reach, only to have everything destroyed utterly.
His eyes were full of bitterness.
In despair, he broke down incessantly.
He had thought everything would go smoothly, but in the end, what happened far exceeded all his expectations.
He snapped!
He snapped completely.
——
Su Manyao specially played host.
She summoned his brother and all his friends.
A group of people gathered together.
Everyone had heard about recent events.
Especially Su Peng, this guy was most worried about Su Manyao: "Older sister, are you unhurt? And this guy, did he protect you? If he didn't protect you, just tell me—I'll never let him off!" Su Peng said while gritting his teeth.
He glared at Jiang Cheng.
Even though he gets along well with Jiang Cheng, he had to admit——
He still found Jiang Cheng displeasing to the eye.
This guy, actually dares to covet his sister all day long?
Damn it!
He was really furious inside.
Even though so much time has passed, he still finds Jiang Cheng unpleasant.
Occasionally, when he feels like it, he throws sarcastic remarks at Jiang Cheng, mainly because he finds Jiang Cheng displeasing and wants to beat him up.
Jiang Cheng gave Su Peng a white-eye roll.
"You bastard, I think you've been itching for a beating lately, right?" Jiang Cheng rubbed his palms, stepped forward, and walked toward Su Peng.
Su Peng lifted his head and chest: "Did I say something wrong?"
"I'm saying this to protect my sister's safety!"
"If you can't protect my sister well, then get lost at once and let me, your younger brother, protect her." Su Peng felt he would be his sister's most loyal servant for life.
How could a woman as outstanding and beautiful as his sister end up with Jiang Cheng?
He was momentarily worried.
With his brows tightly furrowed, he couldn't help but sigh.
Hey!
Jiang Cheng rushed forward and grabbed Su Peng, slamming him to the ground: "I think you're like this because you've been too idle lately, with no one to beat you. Otherwise, you wouldn't dare speak so righteously to my face." Jiang Cheng was also angry.
This guy really dares to say anything!
He felt a surge of annoyance.
Su Peng, still unrepentant.
He spoke righteously: "I tell you, I will absolutely not yield to your fists!"
"I want to be my sister's most loyal servant!"
"If you let my sister suffer even the slightest injustice, I will never let you off!" Su Peng said this earnestly and righteously.
Jiang Cheng couldn't be bothered to argue with him.
After pinning him to the ground, Jiang Cheng stood up and dusted off his clothes.
"Can't be bothered with you!" Jiang Cheng said: "Look at your scrawny frame—you still want to protect your sister? Before protecting her, you should first train a bit, strengthen your physique a little, so you don't just make a fool of yourself here."
Jiang Cheng spoke bluntly.
He reminded, mainly thinking, don't let Su Peng just talk big from the sidelines.
The despised Su Peng: "……"
He just knew that Jiang Cheng was begging for a beating!
He gritted his teeth.
"Wait for me, someday I'll have trained my whole body into muscle, and then I'll knock you down with one punch."
Su Peng swung his fist.
Su Manyao glanced at him, seeing his somewhat foolish, childishly rowdy younger brother.
Hearing those concerned words from the other side, Su Manyao couldn't help but smile.
However.
!
Su Peng this guy has become more and more arrogant lately.
In front of Jiang Cheng, he actually dares to push his luck that much, and even started warning?
Su Manyao stepped forward, reached out and slapped Su Peng on the back of the head: "He's your brother-in-law; when you speak to him, be polite!"
His head instantly rang with a buzzing sound.
Su Peng incredulously jerked his head back, staring in shock at his older sister.
No!
They two are the ones who actually have a blood relation!
But his older sister just came up and gave him a slap—isn't that also too much?
"Sister!"
"You've never been willing to hit me since I was little, but now for an outsider you dare to hit me on the back of the head?" Su Peng felt wronged, mainly feeling that his sister actually went and beat him up for Jiang Cheng.
He's really too pitiful, isn't he?
He felt a moment of sorrow.
Just looking at that pitiful appearance, Su Manyao glanced and really felt disdain.
"Do you know your acting is terrible?"
Su Manyao was speechless.
He looked at him, trying to believe his acting, believing he was really injured. But the acting was too bad; he really wanted to believe, yet couldn't.
Su Peng: "..."
Have to say, such words really pierce the heart.
Every word left this younger brother speechless, and of course he also looked at his older sister ahead with a face full of sorrow.
This older sister is no longer the former older sister.
Now he unconditionally stands on Jiang Cheng's side, and he—
All that's left for him is to be bullied.
His interest immediately waned.
"I knew, in your hearts, I gradually became unimportant, lost status."
"If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have introduced you two; otherwise, when you two first got together, I should have tried every way to split you up—maybe then I wouldn't now be constantly daydreaming, under huge pressure!"
Obviously.
When he was little, he always promised his sister that in the future he would let her enjoy wealth and honor.
Whatever his sister wanted, he would buy it for her.
But by the time he grew up, he hadn't even graduated yet, and was preempted by that shameless Jiang Cheng!
This left him with no options now.
"Shut up!"
Su Manyao listened to these inauspicious words, glared at Su Peng: "Don't say whatever you want to me, you're talking nonsense; in a moment I'll beat you!"
"Also, what are you saying there?"
"Most importantly... you dare say anything? If you really curse us to split, do you think I wouldn't be the first to beat you to death!" (End of chapter)
