Campus Ace Girl
Chapter 884: Oh, the Project? It’s Signed with the Bo Family
Bo Xichen chuckled, "Probably!"
"Little uncle, you’re shameless." She pouted on his back, playfully.
After a while, Gu Anxi softly said, "I’ll go to the little restaurant to get you some food."
While speaking, she put down the documents in Bo Xichen’s hand and pretended to be fierce, "Stop looking, you’re just reading files all day."
Bo Xichen chuckled, "Do I not have the freedom to work now?"
"Half of you belongs to me." She said dominantly.
Little uncle Bo found it quite amusing, reached out to pull her into his lap, patted her hair, pinched her cheek, and then slowly said, "I remember I put in my best efforts. If madam is dissatisfied, she could just say so."
Shameless!
Gu Anxi ran off.
Bo Xichen chuckled, looking back at the documents, he was studying the Huaer Laboratory project, needing to catch up from the beginning...
Just as Gu Anxi left, King Jingyao came to the hospital but didn’t go directly to see Lin Hua, instead, he went to Chen Ming’s ward first.
Mother Chen, after the initial surprise, was quite straightforward, "Mr. Wang, you’re here to see Miss Lin, right?"
King Jingyao’s face turned half-black.
Although Chen Ming was honest, having been by his side for a long time, he knew exactly what he meant, glanced at his mother, and then said to King Jingyao, "Thank you, Mr. Wang, for coming to see me. Perhaps you should also see Miss Lin since I heard from Anxi that she’s not in high spirits and might need the comfort of familiar friends."
Old Wang gave an approving glance at Chen Ming and then said, "Yes, given such a big incident, and being a girl, Lin Hua has always had it smooth sailing, she hasn’t experienced anything like this."
On this note, Chen Ming sent his mother out and said to King Jingyao, with some hesitation and recklessness, "Mr. Wang, the Feng family, especially the main branch, has issues with Miss Lin. Being a clever person, you surely know why, so..."
He was a person filled with a sense of justice, and after much thought, he finally asked, "Do you plan to marry Jiang Chaoge or Miss Lin?"
King Jingyao was quite surprised, not expecting Chen Ming to have such insight, he rubbed his nose and sat on the sofa, then looked at Chen Ming.
Chen Ming looked steadily back.
After a while, Old Wang smiled, "Why so serious? It’s just concern between old friends, nothing about marrying or not marrying. Besides, isn’t Lin Hua with Feng Sheng? Talking about this now would just bother people."
Chen Ming, straightforward and honest, said, "Mr. Wang, if you don’t mean it, please don’t provoke Miss Lin. It’s already tough for her with the Feng family."
King Jingyao’s face darkened a little, "What’s so tough about it? This isn’t Lin Hua’s fault, and besides, Lin Hua and the Feng family won’t have anything to do with each other in the future."
Although Chen Ming’s EQ wasn’t particularly high, he picked up on some hints from King Jingyao’s words and didn’t dare to overstep, so he kept quiet.
King Jingyao apparently wasn’t upset with Chen Ming but rather with the Feng family.
Feng Sheng’s incident saddened the Feng family, but why wouldn’t Lin Hua be sad too? They silently conducted their affairs without letting Lin Hua attend, which is essentially denying Lin Hua’s status. Lin Hua would probably feel quite cold-hearted upon realizing this.
Old Wang, a person with a tender heart for women, naturally showed immense sympathy when visiting Lin Hua, without crossing boundaries, he gently comforted her and took care of the Lin family in various ways.
His care didn’t bother the Feng family, as after all, she hadn’t married into their family yet, but when the news reached Jiang Chaoge, it was undoubtedly a massive shock.
Initially, Lin Hua had withdrawn from the battlefield, as she was engaged, but when Feng Sheng had an incident, and Lin Hua became single again, King Jingyao’s efforts for Feng Sheng made Jiang Chaoge uncomfortable and a bit awkward.
She got anxious about King Jingyao’s potential interest in Lin Hua and made inquiries, finding out that, fortunately, Mr. Wang only went to the hospital once and stayed only ten minutes, with no further contact afterward.
Jiang Chaoge was relieved, and she poured all her efforts into pleasantly surprising King Jingyao, essentially turning into the typical ’girl chasing guy.’ King Jingyao didn’t ignore her, they had meals and attended concerts together, but didn’t progress further. She grew anxious and casually mentioned the billion-dollar project led by Wang Jingchuan.
Upon this mention, Old Wang wiped his hand, leaned back in his dining chair, and smiled, "Why didn’t you mention this earlier, Chaoge?"
Jiang Chaoge felt a sinking feeling inside but maintained a casual demeanor, "Why, Jingyao?"
Old Wang showed a regretful appearance, "Wang Jingchuan has always been in charge of that project, right? Last time, when the Old Lady said to give it to the Bo family, I wasn’t pleased."
Jiang Chaoge nodded, "Yes, given your current relations with the Bo family, it’s indeed unsuitable."
King Jingyao laughed coldly, "The annoyance lies with Wang Jingchuan."
Jiang Chaoge’s heart skipped a beat, "What’s up with him?"
"He went to work for Cloud He Group, didn’t Xiao Jiang know?" King Jingyao looked surprised, then he started to scold furiously, "When he left, I checked into it, and wow, Wang Jingchuan really is quite skillful, having gathered quite a few resources over the years. I underestimated him, and by the time I realized, the project had already been signed with the Bo family, so I’m telling you that it’s too late now."
These words, with some truths mixed with falsehoods, convinced Jiang Chaoge somewhat. But she hadn’t expected Wang Jingchuan to boldly join the Bo family, especially since the one most at odds with Mr. Wang now would be Gu Anxi.
King Jingyao was so angry that he wanted to curse, "Wang Jingchuan, that ungrateful brat, the reason I didn’t want him anymore was that he previously had dealings with Gu Anxi, they were in the same boat. Don’t let his honest appearance fool you, he’s very shrewd, and probably long discontent with me as his superior. Fine, he’s gone now, peace of mind for me, consider that project as severance!"
