183: Chapter 183 Chat Without Comfort 183: Chapter 183 Chat Without Comfort For so reason, Cheng Yan’s words couldn’t make Bo Jingshen feel any better.
For so reason, at this mont, he actually hoped that Su Lu would not separate her personal feelings from work because at least that would prove she still had emotions, still had ripples.
The calr and more composed she beca, the more unsettling it was for others.
Because it seed that people only show emotions for the people or things they care about.
Towards those they don’t care about, no matter how stormy it becos, they remain unmoved.
“I think Mr.
Su is quite concerned about the club project, so you can allow her to contact Young Master Jiang.
After all, I don’t know much about the project,” Cheng Yan said.
Bo Jingshen nodded, but his thoughts seed to drift away.
Su Lu had not taken the initiative to call Jiang Li; it was Jiang Li who had called her first.
It was not hard to detect a hint of hesitation in Jiang Li’s voice.
“Su Lu, are…
are you okay?” Jiang Li asked cautiously.
“Alright, I was actually preparing to call you, but you beat to it,” Su Lu said.
She could tell that Jiang Li didn’t seem to know about her hospitalization; probably Bo Jingshen hadn’t told him.
“Oh…” Jiang Li sounded apologetic, “I heard you were feeling unwell before, so I didn’t dare to disturb you.”
He had indeed heard about it, mainly from the incident at Yunding, as he was there and knew exactly what happened.
Afterward, he had indeed heard that Su Lu wasn’t feeling well, Jiang Li had thought about checking on her, but as a close friend of Bo Jingshen, and considering the incident at Yunding…
it always seed a bit difficult to broach the subject.
It had taken him so ti to let the heat of that day’s events cool down, waiting until the emotions likely had cald.
Only then did Jiang Li contact her.
“Mhm, it’s nothing serious,” Su Lu replied with a light chuckle.
Hearing Su Lu’s gentle laugh, Jiang Li felt sowhat guilty and decided to tell the truth, “I’m sorry.
Mainly because…
after what happened that day, and being his friend, I felt a bit embarrassed to disturb you, fearing it would make you angry.”
Su Lu didn’t expect Jiang Li to be so candid.
She had thought Jiang Li would just offer so polite words and that would be the end of it; in turn, she would have had to respond politely as well.
But with him being so honest, Su Lu felt a sigh of relief.
“That’s not necessary,” Su Lu smiled, “I wouldn’t take it out on you, no matter what.”
Hearing this, Jiang Li seed to relax quite a lot, “Are you feeling any better now?”
“Much better,” Su Lu said, “Let’s not talk about that, I heard the team is going for concentrated training?”
“Yes.
Huh?
How did you know about that?
It hasn’t been announced yet, and you’ve been unwell recently,” Jiang Li said.
“My younger brother told .”
“How does he know?”
“Ying Xi told ,” Su Lu chuckled, “I haven’t recovered enough to visit the team base, so could you reserve two spots for to accompany the team during the training?”
“Sure,” Jiang Li agreed without hesitation.
Jiang Li hadn’t offered any formalities earlier and had spoken directly with Su Lu, now their conversation was much more relaxed.
Jiang Li’s personality was naturally likable, as long as Bo Jingshen wasn’t ntioned, the conversation between them was very pleasant.
“I hear from Cheng Yan that you’ve been following up on the club’s affairs?” Su Lu asked.
Jiang Li responded cheerfully, “Yeah, I occasionally stay at the team’s residence.”
“Is that right?” Su Lu thought about Jiang Li’s circumstances and felt that he was not having an easy ti, having to do his utmost to take care of Ying Xi, the only younger brother of his deceased lover.
And he did so willingly.
It was evident from his tone and the content of his conversation.
Jiang Li laughed and said, “Yeah!
Whenever Xiao Xi starts training, he goes hard, hardly eating properly.
Then he uses the fact that he is the captain and the pillar of the club as an excuse to not be managed, and he’s ruining his stomach.
That’s why he’s so thin.”
Su Lu thought about the fair, tall, slender young man, who did indeed seem too thin.
“You can manage him?” Su Lu asked with a laugh.
Jiang Li sounded sowhat helpless, “Not really…” but he quickly changed the subject, “but I’m thick-skinned, you know, and after all, we’re the sponsors, practically his boss.
If I’m a bit more persistent, he can’t do much but compromise.”
It had to be said, there’s indeed a cure for everything in this world.
“It’s hard work on your part.
I haven’t been much help,” Su Lu said.
But Jiang Li was cheerfully unperturbed, “No worries at all, this project was initiated by after all.
Besides, I enjoy playing gas myself, so living at the club is actually quite fun.
I get to play along with the youngsters from the junior team, and I feel like it’s made much younger.”
“You aren’t really old to begin with!” Su Lu laughed.
After chatting for a while, to be honest, Su Lu felt…
since the incident.
This talk with Jiang Li was the most pleasant, the most relaxing.
Jiang Li never ntioned Bo Jingshen, and he also didn’t know about her surgery, the fact that she had barely escaped death.
This was actually quite nice because even if others ant to console her, it only ended up tearing open her wounds over and over again.
A conversation like the one with Jiang Li, completely devoid of sympathy, pity, or consolation, sohow made her feel even more at ease.
And Jiang Li also seed not to have anyone to talk to about things related to Ying Xi.
So the next day, Jiang Li called her again.
“You know, when you’re feeling better, you should co and visit the base too, it really can help clear the mind,” Jiang Li suggested thoughtfully, sensing that Su Lu’s mood seed better than yesterday.
“Alright, I’ll consider it when I’m feeling up to it,” Su Lu replied.
After thinking a bit, Jiang Li said, “You know, there’s sothing I think you might not be aware of, but I think it’s necessary to ntion.”
Su Lu: “Hmm?
What is it?”
Jiang Li: “You know what my family does, right?”
Su Lu certainly knew, the Jiang Family was involved in many businesses, including dia.
Jiang Li continued, “The news from that day, we originally thought wouldn’t leak out because at the ti Gu Xin and…
they both said they would suppress it.
But after a few days, you’d think the issue would have cooled down and be over.”
“Turns out, it seems to have fernted anew,” there was a serious tone in Jiang Li’s voice, “There must be soone behind this, manipulating it.
We all said we’d suppress the story, yet it’s co out, whoever’s behind it must be powerful.
I’ll trace it back later and see who’s responsible for leaking the news.”
“Thanks,” Su Lu expressed her gratitude.
But her voice sounded calm, like she wasn’t taking it seriously.
Jiang Li couldn’t help asking, “Aren’t you angry?”
“To be honest, these scandals are not new to .
There’s no reason to be upset,” Su Lu replied.
