Chapter 126 - 126 Third Young Master Troubled by Love
Everyone looked at Chu Jinchen’s figure walking over and kept sizing up his expression.
No one spoke.
Chu Jinchen pursed his thin lips tightly, his dark eyes deep and complicated. He was no longer as lazy and relaxed as before.
Anyone would think that Chu Jinchen was not in a good mood.
Qiu Yaohang nudged Ji Wenfeng beside him with his elbow.
He lowered his voice and reminded, “Don’t mention her later, understand?”
Ji Wenfeng made an ‘okay’ gesture.
Qiu Yaohang stood up and poured a glass of wine for Chu Jinchen. With a swing of his hand, he handed it to Chu Jinchen.
“Come! Drink!” he said loudly.
Then, he gave Ji Wenfeng and Wen Yu crazy looks.
Wen Yu and Ji Wenfeng also stood up and raised their glasses at Chu Jinchen.
“We won’t go home until we’re drunk tonight!” Ji Wenfeng said.
Only then did Chu Jinchen react.
He picked up his glass and clinked it with theirs.
Then, he looked up at Ji Wenfeng and asked in a low voice, “Did you send her home safely?”
Qiu Yaohang knew that something was wrong.
He had always wanted to avoid mentioning Shi Ran.
He did not expect Jinchen to self-destruct the minefield!
“Yes.” Ji Wenfeng hurriedly nodded.
“Alright,” Chu Jinchen replied and did not speak again.
He supported his head with his hand and only swirled the wine glass casually, his brows unconsciously furrowed.
As Qiu Yaohang drank, he glanced at Chu Jinchen from the corner of his eye.
No!
Something was wrong!
Jinchen did not look like he had just finished arguing at all.
It was more like he was troubled by love.
After thinking for a while, Qiu Yaohang still asked carefully, “Jinchen, tonight, you and Shi Ran…”
Before he could finish speaking, Chu Jinchen’s expression froze.
The rest of the words were stuck in his throat.
Qiu Yaohang did not know whether to talk or shut up!
How could a brother’s relationship be more difficult than his romantic relationship?
Just as everyone thought that Chu Jinchen would remain silent, he muttered, “What does she mean?”
Everyone was speechless.
“What do you mean?” Qiu Yaohang was stunned for a moment.
Could it be that Shi Ran directly told Jinchen that she liked Qi Le??
He looked at Chu Jinchen’s expression again.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was possible.
This was too much!
Qiu Yaohang’s heart immediately ached for Chu Jinchen.
Why was such a successful person in the business world experiencing so many bumps in love?
Qiu Yaohang was still imagining things.
Unexpectedly, Chu Jinchen said again, “When I approached her, she didn’t resist and even took the initiative.”
“What else?” Qiu Yaohang asked.
If nothing unexpected happened, there should be a ‘but’ next.
“So how does she feel about me?” Chu Jinchen frowned slightly.
Tonight, he kissed Shi Ran on impulse.
He could feel that she did not resist and even took the initiative to respond to him.
Could it be that Shi Ran…
Did she like him?
Qiu Yaohang did not understand and asked directly, “Didn’t you two quarrel tonight because of Qi Le?”
Chu Jinchen looked up and a smile appeared on his lips. “She said that she treats Qi Le as a younger brother.”
Qiu Yaohang: ???
Little brother???
...
So after so long, Jinchen and Shi Ran did not quarrel?
Moreover, from the looks of it, there seemed to be some new development in their relationship.
“So you were just wondering how she felt about you just now?” Qiu Yaohang asked.
“Yeah.”
Qiu Yaohang laughed dryly.
After all this time, the clown was actually himself!
“Why was she blushing at that time?” Qiu Yaohang thought of Ji Wenfeng’s words. “I thought you were fighting until your faces were red.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Qiu Yaohang suddenly paused.
Blushing?
Ji Wenfeng had already reacted.
He and Qiu Yaohang looked at each other and looked at Chu Jinchen.
...
Chu Jinchen was drinking wine and looked like he was in an extremely good mood. He was like a different person from when he entered.
He was in a good mood again?
“Sister Shi Ran’s face was red… Could it be the two of you… Hehe!”
Qiu Yaohang touched the index fingers of his hands and smiled ambiguously.
“Are you very curious?” Chu Jinchen raised his eyebrows, and the smile on his lips gradually became dangerous.
Qiu Yaohang shook his head vigorously. “How can that be? I just want to help you analyze it.”
As he spoke, he pretended to be deep in thought and rubbed his chin.
“With Sister Shi Ran’s personality, she’s very guarded. Since she didn’t resist your approach…”
Qiu Yaohang turned to Ji Wenfeng. “Wenfeng, what do you think?”
Ji Wenfeng: “?”
What did it have to do with him!
Shi Ran was his goddess, and he did not want to help the Third Young Master woo her at all!
Moreover! Which manager would help another man woo their artiste?!!!
Chu Jinchen’s gaze landed on Ji Wenfeng and he said lazily, “You’re her manager. What do you think?”
“I think that at the very least, she doesn’t hate Third Young Master. Moreover, from the looks of it, she should have some feelings for Third Young Master,” Ji Wenfeng said without stopping.
In the end, he still lost to the Third Young Master’s tyranny… Oh, no, his aura.
“Why don’t you just confess? Then you’ll know if she likes you or not,” Qiu Yaohang said with a wave of his hand.
“Now is not the time,” Chu Jinchen said slowly.
Even if he was different to her now, it was only limited to differences.
She probably could not figure out her feelings for him yet.
Being too aggressive would only be counterproductive.
“Then what do you think?” Qiu Yaohang poured himself another glass of wine.
“Let nature take its course. I’ll take my time.”
The corners of Qiu Yaohang’s mouth twitched. “Then why did you call us here to drink?”
Tonight, he ordered three dozen bottles of wine and wanted to get Jinchen drunk to resolve his worries.
Now, it seemed that he was the one who should be worried.
“I’m in a good mood.” The smile on Chu Jinchen’s face deepened.
He licked his lips.
Even the smell of alcohol was sweet.
The other three were speechless.
Why were they here to receive this dog food?
…
Shi Ran soon arrived at Fang Tongtong’s house. It was a small apartment of 30 square meters.
After Fang Zhou’s wound was bandaged, he fell asleep.
“Sister Ran, thank you so much for today. If not for you, Zhouzhou and I would really have died there.”
As Fang Tongtong spoke, her swollen eyes turned red again.
“I’m very happy that you looked for me immediately when you encountered trouble.” She rubbed Fang Tongtong’s head.
Fang Tongtong sniffled. “I didn’t expect them to be so arrogant. They actually dared to hit people!”
Shi Ran’s expression was solemn. “The Jade Hunter is too corrupt and dark. If possible, it’s better not to let your brother work there.”
Even Chu Jinchen was apprehensive of the Jade Hunter.
It could be seen how powerful the backing behind this nightclub was.
As a result, even the guests were so inhumane! The manager was also lawless!
“Sister Ran, we… can’t leave.” Fang Tongtong smiled bitterly.
“At that time, Zhouzhou signed the contract. The penalty for breach of contract was 100 million yuan. We can’t afford it at all.” Fang Tongtong lowered her head in despair.
“Why…” Shi Ran opened her mouth.
She wanted to ask why Fang Zhou went to work in the Jade Hunter.
However, every family had their own difficulties. She was just an outsider and could not ask too much.
“Tongtong,” she called out softly.
Fang Tongtong looked at her with teary eyes.
She raised a warm smile. “Anyway, if you need me for anything, you can look for me.”
She had always been generous with any help to her own people.
“Alright!” Fang Tongtong bit her lip and nodded in a choked voice.
It was almost midnight when she left Fang Tongtong’s house.
She did not ask Ji Wenfeng to pick her up and prepared to take a taxi back herself.
At this moment, a black business car stopped in front of her.
The car window rolled down and it was the face of an unfamiliar man.
He smiled and said in a gentlemanly and polite tone, “Miss Shi, can we talk?”
