Starting by picking up a female fan, he swept through the martial arts world.

Chapter 127 Bai Zhaoli: I watched you get into her car

office.

Gu Manzhi hid the documents behind her back and half-reclined on the sofa, looking like a dignified lady who had been bullied, but her eyes were full of provocation when she looked at Jiang Lang.

Jiang Lang leaned forward slightly. Even though he wasn't particularly close to Gu Manzhi, he felt a strange sense of guilt, as if he were a lecher.

Light makeup.

Red lips.

There was also a slightly disheveled purple formal suit.

Everything exacerbates this feeling of bullying.

He coughed lightly and sat up straight: "What price do you want me to pay?"

Seeing him sit up straight, Gu Manzhi couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. However, she still sat up, moved closer to Jiang Lang, placed her slender, fair hand on the back of his hand, and said with a hint of resentment, "Brother is so wary of me, even using words like 'price'?"

Jiang Lang felt her hand was smooth and cold, making him want to dodge, but he resisted the urge to move and just smiled and said, "I misused my words. What do you want me to do? As long as it's within my ability, I will do my best."

"That's definitely within your capabilities."

Gu Manzhi smiled gently: "I wouldn't want to make things difficult for you."

Jiang Lang felt he couldn't take it anymore: "Then just say it!"

Gu Manzhi bit her lip lightly: "I want to go get some coffee later, will you come with me?"

"good!"

Jiang Lang nodded emphatically.

Gu Manzhi chuckled: "It's just having coffee, why does it feel like we're going to the execution ground?"

Jiang Lang: "————"

Gu Manzhi folded the document and put it into Jiang Lang's jacket pocket. In the process, she inevitably got a little closer, so she took Jiang Lang's arm and gently leaned on his shoulder: "Are you unhappy today?"

"Is there?"

Yes! I can feel it.

"All right."

"Is it because of Miss Bai?"

"no!"

"Really not?"

"No, it's not!"

"Um----

Gu Manzhi nodded gently: "Miss Bai can't even resolve your little unhappiness; she's really an unfit girlfriend!"

Jiang Lang: "————"

Gu Manzhi gave him a reproachful look: "If only you could protect me the way you protect her someday. But it's okay, I should thank her. If she were really perfect, I wouldn't have had the chance to get close to you."

Brother, if you're ever unhappy in the future, you can come to me anytime.

I don't have a princess complex; I can make you happy anytime.

Jiang Lang:

I can't take it!

I really can't take it anymore!

Gu Manzhi chuckled lightly: "Then let's set off now. You can tell me about the things I need to be careful about at Qida University."

Jiang Lang quickly stood up: "Okay!"

Si Hong didn't know whether she should be happy or not.

Things went quite smoothly.

But it seems I didn't play any significant role.

I wonder if Jiang Lang will hold me accountable for this favor.

Fortunately, it's alright.

No matter what, I did put in the effort. Even if I didn't get any credit, I still put in the hard work, which is better than doing nothing at all.

Speaking of which, this kid has quite a bit of luck with women.

Gu Manzhi————

The Shangjiang Chamber of Commerce is gaining more and more influence in Yunjin, and many forces want to get in touch with Gu Hongsheng.

I used to think that Gu Manzhi was just a marginal character, at most a link between Lin Fang and Gu Hongsheng.

But now it seems—

If it were just a connection, how could Gu Manzhi have taken over the shares of Longxi Group in Qida so quickly?

I need to assess Gu Manzhi's position within the Longxi clique and the Shangjiang Chamber of Commerce.

If they can get in touch with this connection, the Si family's business will truly be revived.

Whether or not the relationship with Jiang Lang has improved by then, or to what extent it has improved, will be a secondary issue.

This guy has really good luck with women.

Just thinking about these things...

Si Hong couldn't help but smile, preparing to go home and get a beauty sleep.

As a result, the smile quickly froze on his face.

Because she just happened to see a familiar figure rushing towards her.

Bai Zhaoli, who had been walking somewhat hurriedly, quickly regained her composure as a well-bred young lady upon seeing Si Hong: "Aunt Si, are you off work?"

Si Hong's heart skipped a beat as she suddenly realized that Bai Heng's beloved daughter was actually her stepson's real girlfriend.

broken!

A bead of sweat immediately appeared on her forehead, but she could only force herself to remain calm and greeted him with a smile, "Zhaoli, what brings you here?"

Bai Zhaoli smiled faintly: "I came to see A-Lang. I just went to Teacher Su's place, and Instructor Zhou told me that you took him to visit the new board member. I was thinking that I haven't seen you in a long time, so I thought I'd come and chat with you. Oh? Where's A-Lang?"

Si Hong panicked a little and quickly explained with a smile, "Ah Lang! I had some miscellaneous tasks on my hands, and after visiting the new school board member, I asked him to handle them for me. Young people need to train themselves properly. You've come at the right time, why don't you join me for afternoon tea? A new batch of tea leaves just arrived from Qingmai Domain—"

Bai Zhaoli immediately sensed something was wrong. Not long after the incident with the Special Operations Department, even if the atmosphere in the Jiang family had eased, it shouldn't have reached the point where Si Hong could casually order Jiang Lang around to do chores.

Moreover, he had heard Jiang Lang say that the Jiang family was just making do, as long as they didn't become a laughing stock in front of outsiders.

Something feels off.

She smiled apologetically and said, "Then I'm truly blessed. When I'm less busy, I'll definitely try Auntie's cooking. I'm going to find Ah Lang now!"

As he spoke, he stepped aside, preparing to continue walking towards the school board building.

Si Hong's heart tightened, and she instinctively wanted to stop her, while frantically trying to find the right words in her mind.

Before he could even speak, he found Bai Zhaoli standing there, looking completely dazed.

She had a bad feeling and quickly turned her head to look. Sure enough, she saw a handsome man and a beautiful woman walking out of the hall.

The girl had bright eyes and white teeth, and a charming smile; her gaze never left the young man.

Although there were no intimate gestures, it was as if they couldn't wait to tell everyone about their relationship.

As soon as they stepped out of the lobby, the two got into the car together, and the car drove away quickly.

Si Hong: "————"

Bai Zhaoli:

The atmosphere fell silent for a moment.

Seeing Bai Zhaoli trembling and breathing heavily, her pretty face turning pale, Si Hong felt a chill run down her spine.

Even though she had handled many public relations crises, she had never encountered such a difficult situation.

Don't panic!

Last time, Ah Zhu was two-timing, but I managed to resolve that too.

She tried her best to calm herself down.

But it was soon discovered that the two things were not comparable.

The girl in front of me is very smart, and she is Bai Heng's daughter. There is no comparison between her in terms of intelligence and status.

Oh no!

"Aunt!"

"what?"

"Didn't you say Ah Lang went to help you with chores?"

Bai Zhaoli tried her best to remain calm.

Si Hong's lips trembled slightly: "Ah, yes! I asked him to show the new school board member around Qiqi University. Zhao Li, do you know that new school board member?"

Bai Zhaoli lowered her head slightly: "Of course I know you, how could I not?"

Si Hong:

——"

Bai Zhaoli looked up and forced a smile: "Alright! Since A Lang is busy, I'll find a time when he's not busy to come over!"

After saying that, he turned and left.

Although he tried his best to keep his steps steady, his back view still looked extremely disheveled.

Si Hong stood still.

Like sitting on pins and needles.

Rumors are on the back.

Such as knuckles in the throat.

"Bang!"

Bai Zhaoli sat in the passenger seat, and the door closed a bit loudly.
