Chapter 754: In a Bad Mood

He Yidu played a pair of eights before looking at Jiangsui. “Is the Sang Corporation’s research in your hands?”

Jiangsui had acted swiftly. The moment he annexed the Sang Corporation, he hired all of their company staff back and compensated each of them two weeks worth of salary to make up for the losses they incurred when the company was seized. This matter even trended on Weibo for a while with people singing praises of the new boss, even saying that he was an angel.

With the employees working hard, the halted projects got back on track in no time.

All of a sudden, He Yidu felt that Jiangsui had somewhat changed his initial impression of him—an ignorant and incompetent playboy. He sure acts pretty well. Just like that big boss playing games over there. The Sang Corporation’s most valuable research is probably in his hands.

Jiangsui nodded as he played a pair of nines during his turn. “You want to work with me, Brother Du?”

“Why do you think I asked you about it?” As He Yidu was not wearing glasses today, he exuded a wild vibe when he narrowed his brown eyes slightly. It was totally different from his usual friendly demeanor when he had his glasses on.

Actually, Jiangsui felt that Lu Chengzhou, He Yidu, and Qin Fang were all sly and cunning people. Afraid that he would not be able to deal with them, he cast a glance at Gu Mang, who showed no reactions as she concentrated on her game. Upon realizing that she seemingly planned to leave all the troublesome matters to him, he looked back at He Yidu. “Sure. Let’s talk about the contract tomorrow.”

“A seven.” Qin Fang tossed out a card. “Hey, it’s the first time Jiangsui is working with you. Don’t you bully him, He Yidu.”

As he spoke, he carefully lifted his chin in Gu Mang’s direction, silently hinting to him not to go dig his own grave. This left Jiangsui speechless. Why do they sound so awkward? Aren’t they just a few years older than me?

Without even batting her eyelids, Gu Mang’s fingers moved quickly and accurately across the screen. She was not paying attention to their conversation at all. From time to time, Lu Chengzhou would bow his head slightly to say something to her and she would whisper her replies to him lazily.

Nobody dared to disturb Gu Mang. After all, she was even more arrogant than Lu Chengzhou himself.

At around half-past nine, Lu Chengzhou stood up, ready to take Gu Mang back home. As he picked up Gu Mang’s bag, which contained her laptop and books, he told the rest of the party, “She still has classes tomorrow.”

Everyone thus headed downstairs with the couple to send them off. When the couple finally left, they returned to the private room and tossed the poker cards aside in favor of mahjong over drinks.

…

On the way back to Royal Garden in Lu Chengzhou’s car.

Having slept pretty late the night before, Gu Mang felt a little sleepy now. Thus, she closed her eyes and leaned on Lu Chengzhou, who placed a jacket over her.

As the streetlights were quite bright, Lu Chengzhou covered her eyes with his hand. “Just sleep.”

“Mm,” hummed Gu Mang tiredly as she pulled his other hand.

She did not manage to nap for long because her phone suddenly vibrated a few minutes later. Irritation flashed across her black eyes. Her phone was vibrating non-stop. With her lips pursed, she took out her phone and slowly sat straight up, the jacket slipping off her shoulders and onto her lap in the process.
