Kapitel 29: An Ignored Stinky Tofu
After Leng Jin gave the waiter a look, the waiter cleared the dishes away immediately. After the table was cleared up, Leng Jin's thought cleared up too.
Even though he knew that Dong Manman was outspoken, he hadn't expected her to be this outspoken! An Qi was quite lucky to have such a good friend around her all the time.
As a matter of fact, Dong Manman was right. He did recognize An Qi when she had first appeared. So, once he got off the plane, in addition to going to the company and meeting the old shareholders, he'd also notified Dong Manman of tonight's meeting immediately.
Leng Jin gradually returned to his senses following the shock that learning about An Yufei had given him. Now that he had made up his mind to pursue An Qi, he would not be discouraged by the fact that she had a child.
"Dong Manman, do you mind if I talk to Miss An Qi in private?" Leng Jin asked after seeing An Qi press her lips together and remain utterly silent.
"Uh..." Dong Manman secretly stuck her tongue out at An Qi after glancing at her, as if to say… Sorry, I seemed to have screwed things up again!
Looking at Dong Manman's guilty face, An Qi knew that she had good intentions. Before matching her up with Leng Jin, she'd brought up the existence of An Yufei in advance. Otherwise, if she'd waited for the two to confirm their relationship and had then told him about it, he would probably have left her, and he might have even felt cruelly tricked!
But, Dong Manman couldn't help but think to herself at this moment... Could this girl please stop making decisions by herself? I mean… Her liking stinky tofu doesn't mean that others will fight for it with her! Of course, it's somewhat unkind of me to compare Leng Jin to stinky tofu!
"QiQi, should I go?" Dong Manman asked, as she saw that An Qi's eyebrows had been knit together for the past few minutes, while Leng Jin's gaze was boring a hole into her from behind.
An Qi nodded. "Yes, you can go, as I trust that Mr. Leng has a good character."
When Dong Manman felt that she had her friend's blessing, she grabbed her handbag and rushed to the stairs, but when she was only halfway there, she thought of something and walked back, while digging through her handbag. When she came back to An Qi, she quietly handed her something under the table as she shouted at her, "Qi Qi, don't forget to call me when you get home!"
Then, she disappeared into the crowd. When An Qi returned to her senses, she looked down at the item. It was pepper spray!
"Haha, that Dong Manman!" she laughed as she help up the pepper spray.
Leng Jin just shook his head and stared at the pepper spray, while An Qi suddenly used her other hand to cover up the pepper spray before smiling in embarrassment. "She is just used to protecting me, especially ever since my accident. Please don't take anything she says or does to heart, including what she said about my daughter just now. Currently, I have no intentions of finding a boyfriend in the near future!"
The light in Leng Jin's eyes dimmed upon hearing this, but he soon recovered and asked her, "Oh? Would you mind telling me why?"
An Qi sighed. "I don't mind, but the story's too long and dramatic. I'm afraid you will fall asleep halfway through it!"
"Waiter, please open another bottle of the same wine." With a snap of his fingers, Leng Jin spoke to the waiter in his enticing voice, while swirling the wine inside his glass.
The waiter responded immediately, and the red wine was quickly brought over. Leng Jin raised his glass to touch An Qi's, while a tempting smile appeared on his face. "Do tell! We have plenty of time…"
Opposite Strolling Through Paris, the broker having just completed the biggest deal of the quarter.
Leng Yuchen had just bought the building, and the moment the commission arrived, the sales broker was so happy that he couldn't wipe the smile off of his face. After all, this was a direct cash transfer, and such direct buyers were rare to come by!
"The first thing you have to do after receiving the money is dismiss the guard downstairs!" After Sheng Jie received the text message confirming this news, he gave instructions to the real estate broker.
"Yes, I'll do that." The broker's head was nodding like a woodpecker's. "That guy should have left long ago, but he refused to leave. I heard that he was a soldier in the past. He is very careful all the time, and he has a horrible temper."
"Is that it? Maybe he's homeless... We'll show him what happens when he offends Boss Leng!" Sheng Jie said.
The broker nodded, then turned around and ran downstairs in a hurry. Sheng Jie then turned to Leng Yuchen, who was close to the telescope, and began to shamelessly ask for credit and praise. "Boss Leng, are you satisfied with what I have done?"
"Do you know that, from the moment I bought this building, the boy downstairs became my employee?" Leng Yuchen asked as he held up his telescope. Sheng Jie could not see his expression, but judging from his voice, Sheng Jie could feel that his facial expression must be ice-cold.
"Naturally," Sheng Jie replied softly.
"Think about it... After a few years of comfort and success, the Leng Group has almost forgotten all of the past heartache of being forced to restructure a few years ago. Just this afternoon, in front of your eyes and mine, a spy was uncovered in the security team!" Leng Yuchen exclaimed, while he put down his telescope.
He then blinked his eyes as Sheng Jie's big face suddenly appeared in front of him, causing the cold expression on Leng Yuchen's face to become even colder. He raised his arm slowly, pointing in the direction of Strolling Through Tokyo, and said, "I seriously suspect that there must be some connection between the arrival of An Qi, the emergence of Leng Jin, and the recent instability in the company. But, An Qi's safety must remain the top priority regardless, do you understand?"
Sheng Jie nodded his head. Then, as if he had just experienced a sudden enlightenment, he said, "Yes, I understand! That is to say, we won't take any actions before we can find out who wanted to harm An Qi. Is that what you mean, boss?"
Leng Yuchen reluctantly raised his telescope again as he replied, "Well... You're half right..."
Half? As Sheng Jie looked at Leng Yuchen, he could vaguely see a woman, who looked like An Qi, holding a wine glass and toasting a tall and straight silhouette.
Sheng Jie's adrenaline surged as he thought... This woman is not satisfied with having just Boss Leng! What else could she possibly want?
