Chapter 121 Who is the Fool



Jiang Youjia wanted to argue at first, but being watched by Xie Qian, he couldn't even say the words of denial!

——Xie Qian understood everything, but he was just too lazy to explain things clearly.

——Explaining everything like this shows that Xie Qian is angry.

Jiang Youjia has been a child of other people's families since he was young.

His mother Guo Xia, who teaches at a provincial key school, has strict requirements for him, and his father Jiang Xuekun, who works at a publishing group, teaches him by example. The family atmosphere of the Jiang family is serious yet open-minded. Intellectuals pay the most attention to being decent in doing things. Jiang Youjia grew up in such a family atmosphere and went abroad to study and develop his gentlemanly demeanor.

Jiang Youjia knew he was an elite among his peers. His family's support gave him a higher starting point, and coupled with his personal efforts, he thrived at work. Marrying Lin Lin further boosted his confidence... However, Xie Qian was watching him silently at this moment. The confident Jiang Youjia felt flustered and embarrassed. He lost his composure in the stare, turned his gaze away, and sighed heavily.

"Alas, I didn't expect you to hate the Zhao brothers and sisters so much. When I mentioned your recent 'entrepreneurship' in front of Zhao Dong, Zhao Dong immediately couldn't help but go to the night snack street—"

Jiang Youjia felt something was not right when he spoke.

Although he told Zhao Dong about the matter, he intended to use Zhao Dong's hand to "save" Xie Qian.

But I just told Zhao Dong this morning, and Zhao Dong took action in the evening. Isn’t that too proactive?

Zhao Dong was not so attentive to his friend.

Thinking of his wife Lin Lin's evaluation of Zhao Dong, Jiang Youjia spoke even less confidently - if Wen Ying was scheming and deliberately pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger to get close to Xie Qian, then Zhao Dong's utilitarianism was laid out on the table, and it was too obvious, exposed in front of Xie Qian.

If Zhao Dong had done nothing, even if Xie Qian accidentally saw him in the night snack street, he would not pay special attention to him, let alone express his disgust as bluntly as he did now!

Being watched by Xie Qian, Jiang Youjia had no choice but to bite the bullet and make amends: "...Anyway, I will talk to Zhao Dong and make things clear."

Xie Qian nodded: "Thank you, brother-in-law. I'll rest first. I won't tell my cousin about this."

Telling Lin Lin would be of little use except causing the couple to quarrel.

Judging from the current situation, Xie Qian will have to stay at the Jiang family until the end of summer vacation. He will see the Jiang family members every day, and Xie Qian doesn't want to make the atmosphere too awkward.

Apart from this incident, Jiang Youjia has not found any other problems for the time being. Xie Qian is unwilling to destroy the relationship between Lin Lin and Jiang Youjia!

After hearing Xie Qian's assurance, Jiang Youjia breathed a sigh of relief.

"Just take a rest. I'll take care of this."

Jiang Youjia did not give Xie Qian a perfunctory response.

Xie Qian clearly stated that he didn't like the Zhao brothers and sisters deliberately getting close to him, so Jiang Youjia's plan of "driving away the wolves and chasing away the tigers" was not very effective... But this made Jiang Youjia even more wary of Wen Ying.

Zhao Dong was an adult after all, and his overly utilitarian behavior immediately aroused Xie Qian's disgust.

Wen Ying, despite her young age, is better at hiding her thoughts than Zhao Dong. She should not be underestimated!

Jiang Youjia came out of Xie Qian's room, and Lin Lin asked him:

"What does Xie Qian want to talk to you about?"

"Secrets between men cannot be shared with you... Go to sleep first, I'll go out and make a phone call."

Lin Lin looked at Jiang Youjia's back and snorted: What secrets between men? She saw that Jiang Youjia was feeling guilty. No matter what Jiang Youjia did, as long as Xie Qian didn't suffer any loss, it would be fine.

Anyone who thinks Xie Qian is young and wants to interfere with his life is doomed to be disappointed!

Lin Lin did not expose Jiang Youjia because she knew that Jiang Youjia had no ill will towards Xie Qian.

Jiang Youjia was seen through by his wife, but he didn't realize it at all. He thought Xie Qian and Lin Lin were stupid, and in the eyes of these two siblings, he was even more stupid.

Jiang Youjia ran to the study, closed the door and made a phone call.

The phone was picked up after ringing twice. Not only was Zhao Dong not asleep, he also sounded quite energetic.

"Youjia——"

"What did you do at the night snack street today?"

Jiang Youjia interrupted Zhao Dong's small talk, "How old are you? You can't even do such a small thing. Go ahead and go to the night snack street. You were even discovered by Xie Qian. He just came to talk to me and said he didn't want to be disturbed... Forget it, just pretend you didn't hear what I said before and don't get close to Xie Qian!"

Zhao Dong was confused.

What did you do at the night snack street?

Didn't he just take his sister Zhao Qian to the night snack street to recognize his competitor's appearance? Even if Xie Qian saw him, he wouldn't have such a big reaction, right?

Zhao Dong carefully recalled the experience he and his sister Zhao Qian had at the night snack street. He had never had any direct contact with Xie Qian, so there was no chance of him being disliked by him!

Zhao Dong wanted to explain, but Jiang Youjia didn't listen and hung up the phone.

Zhao Dong listened to the busy tone on the phone, feeling not only annoyed but also humiliated.

Jiang Youjia, this country bumpkin!

Why didn’t you dare to be so arrogant when you were abroad?

At that time, it was Zhao Dong who took Jiang Youjia out to play. Jiang Youjia was like a country bumpkin. He was timid when going to the bar and was laughed at by others. It was Zhao Dong who kindly helped Jiang Youjia integrate into the local Chinese circle.

Now things are good. Jiang Youjia feels that Chengdu is his home. The Zhao family has returned to China to develop. Zhao Dong asked Jiang Youjia for help in two matters, and Jiang Youjia became nervous.

Jiang Youjia is like this, and so is Xie Qian. They are young, but they break many rules.

If Zhao Dong didn't have anything to ask for, he would have deleted Jiang Youjia's phone number right now. Whoever wants to serve him can go ahead and serve him. Zhao Dong doesn't want to serve anyone anymore!

"What's wrong?"

A pair of arms wrapped around Zhao Dong's waist from behind and moved up to his upper body. His charming voice was tinged with the aftertaste of pleasure.

Zhao Dong brushed away the mischievous little hand and said to the woman behind him, "You should pack up and leave."

The woman was surprised.

Seeing that Zhao Dong didn't seem to be joking, the woman became angry, got up from the bed, and called Zhao Dong a bastard while putting on her clothes.

After the woman slammed the door and left, Zhao Dong lit a cigarette.

While puffing out smoke, Zhao Dong suddenly smiled.

Does Jiang Youjia really think he is just a lackey?

Zhao Dong quickly adjusted his mentality.

Even if Jiang Youjia didn't tell Zhao Dong about this, he had already made plans. Jiang Youjia just asked him to start taking action in advance.

Now that Jiang Youjia says he wants to cancel it, how could Zhao Dong listen!

Zhao Dong no longer cared whether Jiang Youjia would be happy or not. Compared to the help he could get from the Xie family in the future, Jiang Youjia's father Jiang Xuekun, who was the president of a publishing group, was nothing. Having said that, Zhao Dong approached Xie Qian for profit after all, not to make enemies. Xie Qian was disgusted with him now, and it would be difficult for Zhao Dong to appear in front of Xie Qian in a short time. He had to pin all his hopes on his sister Zhao Qian.

The next morning, Zhao Dong called Zhao Qian over and gave her some instructions.

Zhao Dong asked Zhao Qian to humble herself.

"The more precious something you want, the lower your standards should be. When you accomplish something that others can't, outsiders won't delve into the process; they'll only see the glamorous results. At that point, you're the big winner, and all the hard work and grievances will be worth it!"
