Chapter 717 Traces of the Otherworld
Jiang Cheng strode over there, wearing a well-tailored suit, and he looked a little calmer than in the original world.
He looked at Lu Xuexi, but he didn't ask who bullied Lu Xuexi right away as Jiang Xuxu remembered. He scanned the situation in front of him and asked,
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Xuxu stood up and said directly,
"This lady stole my phone and refused to return it. Because we asked her to return it, she felt wronged."
Jiang Xuxu's tone was very flat and straightforward. Although what he said was true, the result of omitting some information was to express one meaning -
your sister is going crazy.
Jiang Cheng obviously felt that this logic didn't make sense, and subconsciously looked at the phone that Lu Xuexi was holding at his side.
A trace of resentment flashed through Lu Xuexi's heart, but when she faced Jiang Cheng, she looked innocent and concerned,
"No, it's because she was searching for things about the Jiang family on her phone. I was worried that she would do something bad to you, so I asked her. If you don't believe me, just look..."
"Xuexi."
Jiang Cheng didn't wait for her to finish, and spoke directly, "This is not a reason for you to take someone else's phone. Give the phone back first."
Lu Xuexi's expression was a little unbelievable when he heard this, and then a flash of embarrassment quickly flashed across his face. He gritted his teeth and obediently returned the phone to Jiang Xuxu.
Jiang Xuxu was a little surprised, not only by Jiang Cheng's first reaction, but also by Lu Xuexi's attitude towards Jiang Cheng.
In the original world, Jiang Cheng was mindless in protecting her, and Lu Xuexi had always accepted everything and controlled Jiang Cheng's emotions.
But now, Jiang Cheng seemed to have a brain, and Lu Xuexi's attitude towards Jiang Cheng was more cautious and flattering?
It seems that after Lu Xuexi in the other world lost the system, the relationship with the Jiang family was no longer the same as in the other world.
Jiang Xuxu was thinking this in her heart when she saw Jiang Cheng suddenly turn his gaze to her,
"I've returned the phone to you. Now you can tell me in detail why you secretly searched for news about my family?"
He narrowed his eyes, as if he wanted to see through Jiang Xuxu,
"Are you a gossip reporter?"
Jiang Xuxu: ...
Wen Ruo couldn't help but burst out laughing. Seeing several people looking at her, she immediately said,
"I'm sorry, it's mainly because I couldn't help it. After all, this is the first time I heard that chasing stars would be questioned in public." As
she spoke, she looked at Jiang Cheng and Lu Xuexi with a faint smile on her face,
"Personally, I think you two are a little too nosy. You really have too much free time."
Lu Xuexi, Jiang Cheng: ...
This time, not only Lu Xuexi, but Jiang Cheng also had a flash of anger on his face, but soon, he endured it again.
He warned himself of his status as a member of the Jiang family, and not to bother with these irrelevant people.
So, he glanced at the two of them coldly, sneered, and suddenly waved for the restaurant manager to come over.
The manager had heard the argument here a long time ago, and knew who Jiang Cheng was, so he immediately stepped forward.
Jiang Cheng whispered a few words in his ear, and soon, the manager walked up to Jiang Xuxu and Wen Ruo, and said politely,
"I'm sorry, both of you, in order to ensure the dining quality of the restaurant's patrons, I hope you can choose other restaurants to dine."
Jiang Xuxu: ...
She wants to take back her evaluation of Jiang Cheng's brains.
Jiang Cheng is still that Jiang Cheng.
This is the rhythm of the restaurant refusing to receive them if they disagree.
Although the manager said it politely, it means to drive the customers away.
Jiang Xuxu glanced at Jiang Cheng coldly, and suddenly wanted to give him another monthly card for the sweeper experience.
Unfortunately, spiritual power cannot be used in this world.
Then we can only use some physical means.
Although the process will be more troublesome, she really wants to beat someone up now.
Wen Ruo didn't speak immediately after hearing the manager's words. After sending a message on her mobile phone, she stood up slowly and looked at Jiang Cheng.
"Because of a little quarrel, the restaurant is going to drive away customers. The upbringing of the Jiang family has broadened my horizons."
Jiang Cheng was arrogant and said,
"This has nothing to do with my identity as a member of the Jiang family. I am just a friend of the owner of this restaurant and I have made some small suggestions to the restaurant."
"Oh." Wen Ruo said, "Then I have a suggestion too. You shouldn't mind, right?"
When Wen Ruo said this, not only Jiang Cheng didn't understand, but the manager next to him also looked puzzled.
But he soon understood.
Because he received a call from the owner's mother.
The manager listened to the explanation of the boss's mother. He was a little bit unbelievable at first, then he looked at Jiang Cheng with embarrassment. Finally, he hung up the phone with a look of despair.
Turning his head and meeting the gaze of Jiang Cheng and others, the manager, with a sweat on his head, stuttered to Jiang Cheng,
"Mr. Cheng, how about... you..."
Before the manager could speak, Jiang Cheng interrupted him coldly with an unprecedented gloomy tone,
"You'd better think it over before you speak!"
The restaurant manager almost cried, "Mr. Cheng, please don't embarrass me."
Jiang Cheng's face was very ugly.
He is the young master of the Jiang family. If he is asked to leave the restaurant, he will become the laughing stock of the second generation in the circle tonight!
He couldn't help but look at the two people in front of him. He was sure that he didn't know these two women.
But what made the manager not even care about his face...
"What do you mean?"
Jiang Cheng looked at Wen Ruo with a gloomy face.
Jiang Xuxu was also a little surprised.
Does Wen Ruo have another identity in this strange world?
Wen Ruo smiled at Jiang Cheng again, and that smile inexplicably carried a hint of an elder looking at a younger person.
"You are good friends with the owner of this restaurant, and I am also good friends with the mother of the owner of this restaurant. So, I am your elder."
Jiang Cheng's cheek muscles twitched slightly, and he was obviously angry at this "elder" who was not much different from him in age.
Lu Xuexi obviously did not expect things to develop in this way.
Obviously, she could get rid of her anger tonight by just kicking the person out of the restaurant.
Why now... the people who are about to be kicked out of the restaurant have become her and Jiang Cheng?
Jiang Cheng naturally couldn't be "kicked out" like this, and he was about to say something, but suddenly, the mobile phone in his pocket rang.
He subconsciously took out his mobile phone, and the moment he saw the caller ID, his originally gloomy face suddenly changed. He
subconsciously stood up straight with a serious expression.
"Uncle... I have a dinner date today. OK, I'll go back to the company now."
After saying that, he hung up the phone, not caring about the face issue any more, and said to Lu Xuexi,
"Xuexi, uncle just called, I have to go back to the company to deal with some work, I can't have dinner with you tonight, I'll ask the driver to take you home."
Then, regardless of Lu Xuexi's pale face and disbelief, he turned around and walked out directly.
Lu Xuexi was left standing there in embarrassment.
The restaurant manager didn't have too many scruples when dealing with this person, and Lu Xuexi was directly asked to leave the restaurant.
Jiang Xuxu was a little surprised when he saw the two people leaving one after the other.
It seems that Jiang Cheng in this world doesn't care so much about Lu Xuexi?
If it were the original Jiang Cheng, how could he leave Lu Xuexi and go?
Wen Ruo spoke from the other side and asked directly,
"Do you think they are different from the ones in the original world?"
Jiang Xuxu nodded, "Yeah."
But she vaguely guessed the reason.
Sure enough, Wen Ruo said,
"Because Jiang Yucheng in this world has no heirs."
Jiang Yucheng in this world is not married and has no descendants.
But as the head of the Jiang family, he has the responsibility to train a qualified successor for the Jianghai Group.
So after a certain age, Jiang Cheng and Jiang Han began to learn and handle the affairs of the group under the forced intervention of Jiang Yucheng.
Even because the Jiang family only has these two adult grandsons left, Jiang Cheng and Jiang Han subconsciously regard each other as competitors. The two of them are fully committed to the affairs of the group, and naturally they don't think so much of Lu Xuexi.
In the original world, because Jiang Huai was an excellent heir from the beginning, both Jiang Yucheng and Old Master Jiang were more willing to let the other children develop freely.
Because of Jiang Huai's non-existence, Jiang Cheng and Jiang Han escaped the fate of being entangled with Lu Xuexi.
The track of the other world will not stop because of the disappearance of a certain person.
Jiang Xuxu couldn't tell what that feeling was.
She just missed Jiang Huai a little at this moment.
