Chapter 152 Using Four Ounces to Move a Thousand Pounds



Xu Jianian spoke his mind and directly arranged for the boss to buy one as well, before generously moving closer to Jiang Sheng.

"I'd like to visit your factory, is that alright?"

Jiang Sheng was somewhat surprised.

He had originally thought that, through the words he had deliberately steered him to say, Xu Jianian would ask him about their previous stalking of Zhou Changgui.

But to everyone's surprise, Xu Jianian blurted out such a sentence, which was quite unexpected for Jiang Sheng.

He paused for a moment, and before he could speak, Xu Jianian assumed that the other party wanted to refuse, and couldn't help but purse his lips.

"What, is it because of that little misunderstanding before that you won't even grant me this small wish?"

Jiang Sheng subconsciously shook his head: "No, you can go anytime if you want."

The girl in front of him had a faint milky scent, and because she was so close to him, that scent went straight into Jiang Sheng's nose.

By the time he realized what was happening, Xu Jianian was already smiling and nodding at him.

"That's good, thank you Jiang Sheng."

Jiang Sheng scratched his head helplessly, not understanding why he had suddenly agreed to the other party's request.

However, in the next second, recalling what Xu Jianian had said to him earlier, Jiang Sheng quickly realized what had happened.

"You just said that what happened between us before was all a small misunderstanding?"

If Xu Jianian really thought it was a misunderstanding, then it means that she didn't actually believe everything Zhou Changgui told her was true.

The difference between the two is significant. If Xu Jianian has even the slightest distrust of Zhou Changgui, it means that Jiang Sheng's offensive has already been half successful.

At this moment, Xu Jianian paused for a moment, then turned away with a somewhat unnatural expression.

"It's probably more of a misunderstanding, but that doesn't mean I completely believe what you're saying. Don't overthink it!"

Jiang Sheng simply smiled and didn't say anything more about Xu Jianian's stubbornness.

The fact that Xu Jianian didn't reveal that they were following Zhou Changgui already shows that in Xu Jianian's mind, Zhou Changgui wasn't very trustworthy.

It was simply out of respect for the teacher, and because Xu Jianian believed that the teacher would never lie.

Zhao Defu looked left and right, and then at Zhou Changgui's bewildered expression, he instantly understood.

He wasn't stupid; he immediately understood the meaning behind their conversation.

"Student Xu, you will definitely not regret trusting us!"

"Because we really have no reason to lie to you, after all, we're complete strangers. If it weren't for..."

Halfway through his sentence, Zhao Defu glanced at Zhou Changgui discreetly and quickly shut his mouth.

Anyway, we've gotten to know each other now, right?

As soon as Zhao Defu finished speaking, Xu Jianian nodded reluctantly: "I will personally verify whether what you said before is true or false. But before that, you are not allowed to refute anything I say, otherwise, I will definitely tell you everything!"

As soon as Xu Jianian said this, Zhao Defu and Jiang Sheng immediately understood.

Looking again at Zhou Changgui, who was still completely bewildered and knew nothing, the two nodded in agreement in perfect unison.

“No problem,” Jiang Sheng nodded, his words carrying a deeper meaning: “Anyway, the truth is the truth, and the falsehood is the falsehood. No one can turn black into white.”

While they were talking, the boss had already arranged for people to prepare all four computers.

As for Xu Jianian, she wanted to go to the factory with Jiang Sheng to confirm that what Jiang Sheng said was true.

So, Xu Jianian used the phone at the computer store to make a call home.

Upon learning that the computer her daughter had bought would be delivered soon, and that her daughter was going out for a while, Mrs. Xu readily agreed without even asking where she was going. She simply told Xu Jianian to come back early before hanging up the phone.

Having arranged everything, Xu Jianian, along with Jiang Sheng and Zhao Defu, glanced at Zhou Changgui not far away and smiled sheepishly.

"Teacher Zhou, since you're friends with Jiang Sheng's sister, why don't you come with us to visit the factory? That way, you can explain things to Jiang Sheng's sister later."

"Otherwise, what if what Jiang Sheng said is false? Wouldn't that cost a lot of money?"

Zhou Changgui had the same idea, but he didn't know how to bring it up.

At this moment, Xu Jianian took the initiative to say this, and Zhou Changgui quickly nodded.

"That's troublesome."

After saying this, Zhou Changgui realized that he seemed to have been a little too eager, so he smiled at the two of them to cover it up.

"Xiao Jiang, and... your classmate Xiao Zhao, I'm only doing this for your own good. I don't want you to spend your money on things you shouldn't. Please don't be angry."

These words sounded rather high-sounding, but Jiang Sheng was too lazy to say much to Zhou Changgui. He simply nodded slightly, his smile forced and insincere.

“It’s alright, we can understand Teacher Zhou’s concern,” Zhao Defu spoke slowly from the side before Jiang Sheng could even open his mouth, but his voice carried a hint of sarcasm: “After all, Teacher Zhou and Second Sister have such a good relationship, it’s only natural for him to help Second Sister care about Brother Sheng, right?”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Changgui looked somewhat embarrassed, but more than that, he didn't know how to respond.

As for Jiang Sheng, he quietly cast an approving glance at Zhao Defu.

Not bad. This person, who usually seems a bit unreliable, can be quite eloquent when he speaks.

At the very least, Zhou Changgui is now speechless.

To be honest, in this era where women's reputations are particularly strict, if Zhou Changgui really admitted so readily that the two had a good relationship, it would mean that his relationship with Zhao Xuehui was extraordinary.

Even if Zhou Changgui were incredibly stupid, he would never do such a thing in front of Jiang Sheng. After all, doing so would not only fail to achieve the desired result, but would also backfire.

Zhou Changgui's expression wasn't very pleasant, but this was the only time he could subconsciously refute him.

"I'm just a good friend of Xuehui, and Xiao Jiang, you spent more than 30,000 yuan. Any of Xuehui's friends would definitely not just stand by and do nothing."

Jiang Sheng glanced at Zhou Changgui with some surprise at his seemingly effortless reply, not expecting him to respond in that way.
