After Switching Bodies, the Mad Overbearing CEO Takes Over the Entertainment Industry-Chapter 216 - 213: As Expected, An Ungrateful Wolf
Chapter 216: Chapter 213: As Expected, An Ungrateful Wolf
Tiantian fell silent after hearing Qu Rong’s pleading "please," and so did Qin Jiangsheng.
He had always known Qu Rong to be bothersome, but it was fine in front of friends, making a fool of oneself in front of one’s own people. Yet, Qu Rong had the nerve to act up in front of Tiantian.
She gave him a straight look as if asking, "Why would you hire such a person to drive? Isn’t it too hot in the car every day?"
Qin Jiangsheng contemplated quietly and suddenly became somewhat obedient, "This was arranged by the old man, I wasn’t really willing." He paused, then added, "I usually don’t get along with him, we barely talk."
Tiantian: "..."
She chuckled lightly, "What about that time he asked you to go to the bar? His familiar tone made it sound like you’ve been there hundreds of times with him."
Qin Jiangsheng looked up, puzzled, "Oh right, I almost forgot if you hadn’t reminded me, he’s definitely up to no good, just wanting me to spend money. Qu Rong, you don’t need to come tomorrow."
Qu Rong: "..."
He got fired just like that in a matter of a few sentences?!
His face darkened in an instant, "Young master?! Are you serious?"
"I am a good student, a good person, don’t corrupt me." frёewebηovel.cѳm
"..."
666.
He’s making it very clear!
Qu Rong clenched his teeth, wanting to expose Qin Jiangsheng’s two-faced nature in front of Tiantian.
But eventually, seeing him smiling loyally at Tiantian, with a spineless demeanor, Qu Rong gave a resigned smile and let it go, who could blame him for favoring his "younger brother".
But he still admired Qin Jiangsheng, who was supposed to help Tiantian connect with Bai Tingyu, yet ended up drawing her to himself. He didn’t know how to explain this to Mo Jiu, especially since this mission had been issued before he left the organization.
Mo Jiu was always harsh on those who failed to complete their tasks.
After careful consideration, he decided to stay away from Qin Jiangsheng, pretending he knew nothing. If Mo Jiu asked, he’d have an alibi. Perhaps Qin Jiangsheng thought the same; Qu Rong felt he had guessed right.
He cleared his throat and continued, shamelessly asking, "Miss Tiantian, could you help me ask her? I can’t reach her."
"What if she refuses?"
"If she refuses, I’ll stop asking, plus she’s so kind, she definitely won’t reject her true fan."
Tiantian clicked her tongue, took out her phone, and snapped a photo of his side profile, capturing a clear outline.
Qu Rong, unable to block while driving, expressed frustration, "Why are you taking a sneaky photo?"
"If I don’t show Sister Chenxi what you look like, would she agree to meet a stranger?"
Qu Rong held back his comments, then resignedly said, "Alright, alright, go ahead..."
Tiantian sent the photo and explained the situation. A second later, He Chenxi replied, [Nope, I hate greasy men!]
Well...
That’s a very firm rejection.
"I told you Sister Chenxi wouldn’t meet you, she just won a court case and is busy," Tiantian said, shaking her phone to show him the result.
Qu Rong, a bit disappointed, said, "Okay, thanks, Miss Ji."
Tiantian: "..."
The car stopped in front of Tiantian’s villa, and she went inside before Qin Jiangsheng’s car left.
Ji Weinan was waiting at the wrought iron gate, and upon seeing her return, he eagerly asked, "Did Qin Jiangsheng just drop you off?"
Tiantian glanced at him, "None of your business."
"You’re my sister, how could I not care!"
"You’d better mind your own business. I don’t need you to worry about me."
Ji Weinan: "..."
Just then, Ji Qilin came walking by with a tea cup, saw Tiantian, and asked with a gentle smile, "You’re back, how did it go?"
Tiantian gestured with an OK sign, "Got it."
Ji Qilin chuckled, "I guessed as much. Are you hungry? Dinner’s ready, just waiting for you."
Tiantian walked up affectionately, hooking her arm through his, and smiled at him, "Big brother, you trust me that much? You thought I’d definitely make it?"
He raised an eyebrow, his eyes full of affection, "Of course, you’re my sister, amazingly talented. If she didn’t hire you, she’d really be mistaking a stone for a pearl."
Tiantian was genuinely surprised by Ji Qilin’s attitude, especially since the last time in the car, when she mentioned Shen Zhiyi, he had sternly defended her, telling her to listen and not meddle.
Such a drastic change had happened in just a few months.
The plot really was twisting oddly.
"Hehe," Tiantian chuckled, "By the way, Sister Shisheng mentioned she invited you to join KI two years ago, and you turned her down."
Ji Qilin was taken aback, then helplessly said, "Two years ago I was focused on researching anti-cancer agents, I wasn’t interested in heart medication, we just weren’t aligned."
