“Oh, right,” Zhao Defu suddenly seemed to remember something and quickly said, “I remember last time we were followed by that idiot Sun Fuqiang, and ended up going straight to a disco. I wonder what Sun Fuqiang is thinking about us now.”
"He must be thinking of us as gigolos."
Jiang Shenglian replied without hesitation, "After all, your brother Sheng is so handsome, it's normal for him to think that way."
"You make a living off your looks, and you're so proud of it. It's truly enviable!"
Zhao Defu couldn't help but curl his lips, but his face was full of mocking smiles: "Now look what's happened, they've already started treating you like a gigolo. Just tell your eldest and second eldest sisters, and let's see how we explain ourselves to them!"
"Just explain it however you see fit!"
Jiang Sheng didn't think that much about it at all. Hearing this, he just pursed his lips and said, "Anyway, he was the one following us. If we say we came to the disco to attend a party with our classmates, wouldn't that lie be enough?"
“That makes sense,” Zhao Defu nodded in sudden realization. “Anyway, quite a few people from our school do come to that disco to have gatherings with their classmates. No matter what he thinks, my eldest and second eldest sisters will definitely believe us. On the contrary, if that idiot is following us, we can just turn the tables and make him furious!”
The two chatted and laughed all the way, but when they arrived at the school gate, they found that the third sister, Zhao Yiyan, was walking forward with Zhang Sicheng, chatting and laughing.
Seeing the two chatting and laughing, Jiang Sheng's expression instantly turned ugly.
This Zhang Sicheng is really like a leech, always finding a way to get close to Third Sister whenever he's not around. It's really hateful!
"I'm so angry! Why is that scumbag still bothering my third sister?!"
Zhao Defu angrily cursed, "He's a complete scumbag, yet he's always clinging to our Third Sister. It's a pity we don't have any evidence to prove that Zhang Sicheng is no good, otherwise, I would definitely be the first to kick Zhang Sicheng out of Third Sister's side!"
"Don't rush."
After his initial anger subsided, Jiang Sheng calmed down.
He patted Zhao Defu on the shoulder and said, "Since this guy seems so eager to get along with Third Sister, let's go up and say hello to her and see if he'll still feel comfortable staying!"
After all, he had grown up with Jiang Sheng since childhood, and as soon as Jiang Sheng said those words, Zhao Defu immediately understood what he meant.
"I understand what you mean, Sheng-ge. Let's go talk to Third Sister!"
The two exchanged a smile and walked quickly toward the school gate.
"Third Sister, what a coincidence! I never expected to see you here!"
Suddenly, Jiang Sheng's voice came from behind her. Zhao Yiyan turned around with a happy expression, looked at her little brother in front of her, her eyes crinkling with a gentle smile.
"Little brother, what a coincidence," Zhao Yiyan glanced at Zhao Defu and greeted him with a smile, "Did you just come back from outside the school?"
Jiang Sheng smiled and nodded, glanced at Zhang Sicheng standing next to Zhao Yiyan with a somewhat forced smile, and then subtly looked away.
"Yes, Defu and I went to the factory, but we found that business hasn't been very good lately."
At this point, Jiang Sheng sighed, a forced smile on his face.
"Let's not talk about such troublesome things. Anyway, it will be resolved soon. On the contrary, Third Sister, did you just come back from having dinner with Teacher Zhang?"
Faced with Jiang Sheng's words, Zhao Yiyan felt inexplicably guilty.
Even though she and Zhang Sicheng were just good friends, Jiang Sheng's question made her feel like he had seen through her.
"No, not really," Zhao Yiyan smiled and shook her head, unconsciously explaining to her younger brother, "It's just that it was a bit boring staying at school, so Teacher Zhang and I went for a walk outside."
"Oh, I see."
Jiang Sheng nodded, but before he could continue, Zhao Yiyan keenly grasped what Jiang Sheng had just said.
"Young man, you just said that your factory is having some problems. What exactly is going on? Is there any way to solve it?"
Sure enough, his third sister asked him that question.
Jiang Sheng shook his head helplessly, sighed, and said, "It's just a business matter. It's just a small cannery. Even if it's troublesome, it should be resolved quickly."
“Yes,” Zhao Defu quickly nodded in agreement, adding, “Anyway, with Uncle Sun and the others around, I think they’ll definitely come up with a better solution. Third Sister, don’t worry. We’ll go to the factory again in a few days, and we should be able to resolve the crisis then.”
The more the two of them said this, the more worried Zhao Yiyan became.
Looking at the smiles on the faces of the two people in front of her, she felt more and more that they were just putting on a brave face.
One is someone I watched grow up; he's not my younger brother, but he's more like a biological brother to me.
The other one is her younger brother's best friend, who is also the younger brother that the four sisters watched grow up.
Now that their factory is facing a crisis, how could Zhao Yiyan not be worried?
"Xiaosheng, all you ever do is offer me comforting words."
Zhao Yiyan said somewhat unhappily, "If the factory really encounters any problems, you must tell me. I'm your older sister. If I don't help you, who will?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Sheng felt a surge of warmth in his heart.
He knew that he was only saying this on purpose in front of Zhang Sicheng.
He also knew that his third sister would definitely stand by his side unconditionally.
Seeing his third sister do this in person now, he still felt a long-lost sense of emotion.
Jiang Sheng glanced at Zhang Sicheng again, whose smile was almost fading, and quickly waved his hand, looking troubled.
"Third sister, I know you mean well and I know you're worried about me."
"But we're still figuring out a solution to this, and we really don't want you to worry about it too!"
“Besides,” Jiang Sheng looked at Zhang Sicheng with some difficulty, “Third Sister, you just came back from a walk with Teacher Zhang. How can I bother you with something like this? Besides, you definitely have class tomorrow. Defu and I will think of a solution to this matter.”
“Yes,” Zhao Defu chimed in, “Anyway, with Uncle Sun and the others around, I’ll talk to my uncle about it later, and maybe we can find a solution.”
Although Zhao Defu said this, he clearly lacked confidence.
