Urban Film and Television: Jiang Lai is the Top Choice

When Jiang Haokun saw Gan Jing arrive, he excitedly stood up and said, "Gan Jing! What brings you here?"

Yang Chu smiled and said to Li Yesheng, "Bring some stools over so they can sit down and talk."

Gan Jing glanced at Jiang Haokun and said, "So many things happened yesterday, of course I had to come and tell Yang Chu. Jiahe insisted on coming too, so I brought her along."

After Gan Jing and the others sat on the stools that Li Yesheng had brought, Peng Jiahe quickly ran to the swing and sat down.

"I didn't expect you to know how to enjoy yourself so much, Brother Yang!"

Yang Chu smiled and said, "If you like, come over often. It's not far from your house anyway."

"Of course I'm coming! Your house is much more interesting than my grandma's."

Yang Chu smiled but didn't say anything more. Instead, Gan Jing looked at Jiang Haokun and asked, "What brings you here today?"

Jiang Haokun sighed and said, "After you left yesterday, I thought a lot, but I still don't understand why you wanted to break up with me. So I came to talk to Mr. Yang today."

"Really? You warned them before, how dare you come here?"

Jiang Haokun said somewhat awkwardly, "My dad asked me to come and apologize to Mr. Yang!"

"So you're saying you didn't come to apologize? If that's the case, I don't think Yang Chu will accept your apology, since it wasn't your intention."

"No, that's not true! If we put everything else aside, Mr. Yang didn't do anything wrong. It's true that I was being a bit narrow-minded."

After saying that, Jiang Haokun took out the bank card that Gan Jing had given him yesterday and placed it on the table, saying, "We can't accept this thirteen million, Mr. Yang, you should take it back!"

Yang Chu glanced at the bank card, shook his head, and said, "This is what you deserve! There's no need to return it to me."

"If Mr. Yang insists on giving me this bank card, then there is no need for me to owe him a favor. If normal business transactions involve owing favors, then my Jiang family will have no place in Shanghai in the future."

As Yang Chu was deep in thought after hearing Jiang Haokun's words, Gan Jing looked at Yang Chu and said, "Haokun is right! You don't need to owe him any favors. All of this started because of me. I can't be the one to pay money and owe favors when I make a mistake!"

Gan Jing returned Yang Chu's earlier words to Yang Chu, leaving Yang Chu speechless.

Just as Yang Chu was about to nod in agreement, Jiang Haokun's phone suddenly rang.

Jiang Haokun didn't try to hide it from Yang Chu and the others. After answering the phone, he said, "Mom, what's up?"

"Haokun, something bad has happened! Your sister isn't doing well. She hasn't left her room since yesterday. I went in to check on her, and she was sitting there blankly, not moving at all. She won't say a word no matter what I ask. Please come back and check on her!"

"Okay, I'm going back now!"

Jiang Haokun glanced at Yang Chu, then looked at Gan Jing and the others and said, "My sister has run into some trouble, I need to go back and check on her."

In fact, Jiang Haokun had a rough idea of ​​what was going on with Jiang Lai, but he wasn't sure yet. If he asked Yang Chu to go with him, it might cause more trouble, so he didn't voice his guess.

We should wait until he goes back and checks things out before making any decisions; at worst, we'll just have to make another trip.

When Gan Jing heard that Jiang Lai had run into trouble, he couldn't help but glance at Yang Chu.

Gan Jing, for reasons unknown, smiled at Jiang Haokun and said, "Then you should go back and take a look!"

Jiang Haokun nodded and looked at Yang Chu, saying, "We'll talk about our issues later."

Yang Chu nodded and said, "Okay, take the bank card back! You're a businessman, I can't let you lose money."

Jiang Haokun nodded and put the bank card away again.

After Jiang Haokun left, Gan Jing looked at Yang Chu and said, "Aren't you worried?"

Yang Chu glanced at Gan Jing, closed his eyes, and said, "When she left, she said that we would be strangers from now on, and we would always admit it."

She did it to protect you!

"No need to say anything more! Since she has made her choice, there's no need to keep arguing with her."

"But……"

"There's no 'but' about it! Since she chose to protect me by abandoning me, I respect her choice."

Yang Chu's resolute decision left Gan Jing and Xu Li speechless.

Ultimately, no one is at fault in this matter; the only mistake lies in each other's choices.

If Jiang Haokun had chosen to tell Jiang Lai everything, none of this would have happened.

If Jiang Lai had chosen to face her family with Yang Chu, Yang Chu wouldn't have said those things today.

The four remained silent for a while. Suddenly, Xu Li asked Yang Chu, "If something really happened to Jiang Lai, would you still say such things? Would you still be so heartless?"

Yang Chu pondered for a while, then shook his head and said, "I don't know! I'm not an expert on relationships, nor am I a saint. I'm just an ordinary person with flesh and blood and feelings. If Jiang Lai is really in mortal danger, I will go to see her."

Yang Chu's words silenced Xu Li and Gan Jing as well.

Yang Chu is right. He's not an expert on relationships. They know what Jiang Lai did before. Jiang Lai used rejecting Yang Chu as a form of protection. If Yang Chu goes to see Jiang Lai now, wouldn't he be seen as a sycophant? Where would that leave Yang Chu's dignity?

Seeing the somewhat tense atmosphere, Peng Jiahe changed the subject and asked Yang Chu, "Do you have a place for me to stay? Could you arrange a room for me?"

Yang Chu glanced at Peng Jiahe and said, "It's not far from your grandma's house, why do you need a room? Besides, I don't really have that many rooms here."

Gan Jing looked at Yang Chu in surprise and said, "How is that possible! There are at least twenty rooms of all sizes, how could there not be enough room for everyone!"

Yang Chu, a wicked smile on his lips, looked at Gan Jing and said, "You think I'm just joking when I challenge Jiang Haokun to a duel?"

"Are you crazy? It was just a misunderstanding, there's no need to take it so seriously."

Yang Chu smiled and said, "Some things don't need to be taken seriously, but there are some things I have to take seriously. Besides, this is an opportunity for me to gain a foothold in Shanghai, given by Jiang Haokun. Why should I treat it as a misunderstanding?"

Gan Jing didn't quite understand Yang Chu's words and kept thinking about them.

Peng Jiahe asked Yang Chu, "What does this have to do with your room?"

Xu Li asked with some suspicion, "You're not going to have all the people you're using to deal with Jiang Haokun living here, are you?"

Yang Chu smiled and nodded, saying, "Pretty much! After leaving the teahouse that day, I hired twenty-five people. Now, only five people are left at home to clean, and the rest have gone out to work."
