Ning Ge rushed to Joy Soon Loy Restaurant with a look of urgency on his face, sweeping over to Cheng Su like a gust of wind: "Where is he?"
He looked around but didn’t see that playboy scoundrel anywhere.
"Who are you looking for?" Cheng Su asked, puzzled, and then it dawned on her, "Are you asking about Chiang Tian? He’s gone!"
"He’s gone just like that?" Ning Ge frowned and then scrutinized her, "He didn’t do anything to you, did he!"
Cheng Su scoffed, "This is my turf; what could he possibly do to me? Besides, I think he’s a bit of a dimwit."
"Don’t be negligent. Even if Chiang Tian isn’t smart, he’s no fool. Tell me, what did he come here for?" Ning Ge asked as he sat down.
He hadn’t caught the whole conversation on the phone but heard her say that Chiang Qing’s brother, Chiang Tian, had come knocking, scaring him into thinking Chiang Tian was here to cause trouble, so he hurried over.
Cheng Su repeated the conversation, and said, "See, isn’t he a dimwit? I think his sister is not right in the head, and neither is he. I really don’t understand how this family’s brains work?" They are all eccentrics.
Ning Ge, however, shook his finger and said, "You shouldn’t underestimate him. Chiang Tian is known in Capital’s circles as a notorious playboy. He has played with countless women, good or bad, and there aren’t many he has set his sights on that he hasn’t gotten. And don’t be fooled by his messy ways; when it comes to business, the kid has some brains. Even though his transportation company started with the help of his external family, it’s running very smoothly."
Cheng Su’s brows raised, "So, you mean he was just playing dumb in front of me?"
"I don’t know if he was pretending to be dumb, but there’s a saying you know, right?" Ning Ge looked at her, "Good people don’t come uninvited."
"Is he really here on behalf of his sister?" Cheng Su’s face darkened, "When will they ever stop bothering me!"
"That’s why I told you to stay away from Chiang Qing. She’s crazy, and now you understand. I don’t believe for a second that her brother’s visit was something Chiang Tian didn’t know about. It’s very likely she’s the one who sent him!" Ning Ge analyzed.
"Come here for what? It can’t be like what he said, coming to hit on me?" Cheng Su said sarcastically, "What do they take me, Cheng Su, for? Just because they have no shame, do they think I am as shameless as they are?"
It was ludicrous. What made Chiang Qing think that by pointing her brother her way, Cheng Su would really get hooked?
She really wanted to confront Chiang Qing and ask where she got such self-confidence from.
"That’s the cleverness of Chiang Tian, real and fake, hard to distinguish. Even you can’t guess his true intentions, and doesn’t that concern you?" Ning Ge said lightly, glancing her way, "Maybe that kid is still smug about it!"
"Pfft! What a joke. Why would I care? I’m not three years old to be swayed by anything he says!" Cheng Su rolled her eyes.
"If you can’t figure it out, then he has already won one over on you. Anyway, you shouldn’t interact with Chiang Tian. If he comes to you talking about business again, tell him to come to me," Ning Ge said coldly.
"No way. Even if he really wants to collaborate with us, I would never dare. Who knows? He might stab me in the back at any moment. It’s not worth it over a bit of money. I don’t care for it!"
Cheng Su was extremely repulsed and even more irritated. Whatever game this sibling duo was playing, they both disgusted her and made her nauseous.
"Mhm, leave this matter to me," Ning Ge said, stroking his chin.
That little bastard Chiang Tian, not staying put in Capital and stirring up trouble, what is he up to? Is he itching for a beating or what?
