The Genius Sweetheart of the Abstinent Goblin Boss
Chapter 103 It's you, Xiao Leng, who clings to me more
Because Chi Tao had informed the security in advance, Jiang Manxi went up smoothly.
Chi Tao had just finished calling Jiang Baishen to reschedule the discussion meeting and was writing it down on Ji Ran's schedule.
"Hello!" Jiang Manxi suddenly appeared at the office door.
Chi Tao looked up and saw that it was Jiang Manxi. She smiled warmly and greeted him, "Here you are, little one..."
Before she uttered the word "guzi", Chi Tao suddenly realized that since there was no hope for Mr. Xiao Jiang, she shouldn't call him that.
So she changed her words and said, "Manxi."
Jiang Manxi didn't notice it at all. Her whole attention was on the empty chair behind Ji Ran's desk. She pouted a little disappointedly and said:
"Why didn't Miss Leng come to work?"
Chi Tao pursed her lips: "Your sister Xiao Leng doesn't have to come to work every day."
Jiang Manxi shrugged helplessly, "That's right. For a genius like Xiao Lengjie, even if she's just listed, I guess many prestigious schools will be vying for her."
Chi Tao nodded silently to show his agreement.
Suddenly remembering today's business, Jiang Manxi immediately ran to Chi Tao's side with great interest, and leaned on the table. She leaned closer and lowered her voice in a sneaky manner: "How is it! What information did you find out this morning? "
Chi Tao pursed her lips and glanced at Jiang Manxi guiltily, "Em..."
Seeing her like this, Jiang Manxi immediately had a bad feeling: "Sister Xiao Leng and that man... have made any progress?"
Chi Tao scratched his arm helplessly and nodded weakly.
Jiang Manxi felt as if she had been struck by lightning. Was her sister-in-law really going to be taken away by someone? ! !
She stood up and exclaimed: "How far have they come?! Is there still a chance to break them up?! Didn't you say last time that she was just in the first stage? There must be a way to get her off the stage!"
Chi Tao silently shrank under the chair and shook his head weakly.
Jiang Manxi's brows were twisted to the point of breaking, "Is that man clinging to Miss Xiao Leng? He's pestering her!"
Chi Tao helplessly held his forehead, "It seems... it's your little sister Leng who clings to me more..."
"How is this possible! How could Miss Xiao Leng be so clingy with her personality?!" Every cell in Jiang Manxi's body couldn't accept it.
"So..." Chi Tao spread her hands helplessly, "Even your little sister Xiao Leng can become clingy, which doesn't explain the problem."
"But..." Jiang Manxi was still unwilling. She couldn't even imagine the scene of Sister Xiao Leng's beautiful, cold and ruthless face turning into a little bird...
"Wait!" She suddenly realized a question, "You said it looked like?? You saw it?!"
Chi Tao scratched her neck. She had eyes, so of course she saw it: "Yes~"
"That man was at Sister Xiao Leng's house early in the morning?!" Jiang Manxi exclaimed again.
"Uh..." Chi Tao was stunned. It turned out that they were talking about this. If her brother-in-law was a ghost, then he would probably be at Professor Ji's house at any time, not to mention in the morning.
"Did you go first or did he go first?" Jiang Manxi lowered her body and asked nervously.
When Chi Tao heard this question, she knew what she wanted to ask. She sighed and advised, "Oh, Man Xi, let's just give up!"
When Jiang Manxi heard her say this, she realized that the man was there first.
That means they were probably together last night...
Combined with Chi Tao's attitude today, this is a complete rebellion.
Jiang Manxi suddenly burst into tears, she muttered in frustration: "You don't even call me 'sister-in-law' anymore..."
Seeing her like this, Chi Tao quickly stood up, patted her on the back, and said soothingly:
"Oh, Manxi, don't be like this. We should still focus on Professor Ji's intention, right? She really likes... that man. She is really happy when she is with him. The happiness on her face is something I have never seen in all the years I have known her."
Jiang Manxi felt a little relieved when she heard this, but she was still unwilling. She pouted and sobbed, "Is that man... really that good?"
Chi Tao nodded heavily at her.
Qi Mu is incomparably handsome, has top-notch temperament, is gentle and considerate, and the look in his eyes when he looks at Professor Ji is full of love. His cooking skills are comparable to those of a Michelin chef, and the key is that he can protect Professor Ji in all aspects.
Apart from not being a human, I can't really find any flaws in him.
But he was killed by a villain, it was not the man's fault nor was it his fault.
Jiang Manxi frowned and bit her lip, her face full of reluctance. It was obvious that Chi Tao, who had been as active as she was in trying to match up Xiao Leng and her brother, had changed her attitude and given up completely. Even if she was unwilling, it seemed that she had no choice but to accept reality...
After a while, she walked out of the research building with a look of despair and headed towards her car.
"Oh..." Jiang Manxi sighed and got into the car.
I thought today would be a big step forward in my plan to pursue my sister-in-law, but I didn't expect it to be completely aborted.
Just as I was about to start the car, I raised my eyes and saw a familiar camouflage jeep.
Jiang Manxi's heart skipped a beat. After hesitating for a few seconds, she turned off the engine, got out of the car, and walked towards the jeep diagonally opposite.
Looking at the man in the driver's seat slouching over the steering wheel, her eyes darkened and she reached out and knocked on the window a few times.
The person in the car visibly twitched, then he suddenly raised his body and turned to look out the window.
When Zeng Yichen saw that the person coming was Jiang Manxi, he was visibly stunned at first, and then the expectation that had been flickering in his eyes was instantly extinguished.
Jiang Manxi saw it very clearly, and her heart suddenly felt as if it was being squeezed hard by a huge hand.
Zeng Yichen rolled down the car window and greeted politely, "Miss Jiang."
Jiang Manxi looked at his face, which was forced with a smile, and was full of haggardness, dark circles under his eyes, and sloppy stubble. He seemed like a completely different person from the proud and high-spirited man he was before. Her heart ached as if it were being stabbed by needles.
"Second Master Zeng, are you okay?" she couldn't help but ask with concern.
Zeng Yichen's eyes froze, and he turned his head evasively: "Yeah."
Jiang Manxi bit her lip and said, "Don't wait."
Zeng Yichen was stunned for a moment, but did not look back, as if he was still deceiving himself, "I have to wait... It's all my fault. I broke her heart, so she won't forgive me and doesn't want to care about me..."
Jiang Manxi couldn't bear to listen any longer and couldn't help but interrupt loudly, "Wake up! She's not such a stingy person! She just doesn't like you!"
Zeng Yichen turned his head suddenly, his eyes quickly turned red, as if his self-esteem was pierced, and he yelled: "She likes me! Otherwise, why would she attend my birthday party? Why would she be sad and disappointed because of me?"
Jiang Manxi's eyes instantly turned red with grievance, but she couldn't answer his question. However, she could say loudly and confidently:
"She already has someone she really likes! But it's not you!"
Zeng Yichen gripped the steering wheel tightly, his lips trembling. He smiled disdainfully, "Oh, are you trying to say that she likes your brother?"
Jiang Manxi was hurt by the smile on his face, "He's not my brother..."
