Chapter 178: Chapter 179: Mockery (2)_1
“I think I’m going insane! The age-old iron tree has finally blood! There’s actually a woman in Liang Chen’s car!” As he said this, Cong Rong suddenly leaned in, reaching out his hand towards Jing Haohao in the car. “Miss, hello, I’m called Cong Rong. I’ve been friends with Liang Chen since we were little. It’s a pleasure to et you.”
Jing Haohao’s heart pounded nervously. She only dared to keep her head down without even glancing at Cong Rong. She extended her hand to shake hands hastily with him.
Cong Rong’s mind was completely fixated on wanting to see what this woman in the car exactly looked like. Hence, he rushed to greet her. He had no idea this woman wouldn’t even look at him once.
Cong Rong’s heart instantly itched like it was infested with ants. He said, “Miss, I’m greeting you out of sincere goodwill. Your curt response and unwillingness to even lift your head is really disrespectful!”
Jing Haohao kept her head down and said, “I’m sorry.”
Seeing Jing Haohao still refusing to lift her head no matter what he says, Cong Rong turned to Liang Chen and said, “Can you control your woman a bit? Give
so face. It’s setting
up for embarrassnt.”
Liang Chen scoffed, not minding Jing Haohao’s disrespect towards Cong Rong at all: “What stage are you thinking of getting down from when you’ve never been on one?”
“Is this a case of the wife taking the husband’s lead? Oh, it’s the other way around… Liang Chen, this isn’t right. You have a girlfriend, a huge matter like this and you didn’t even ntion it. Look at the situation now; I can’t even get a glimpse of your girlfriend, and you’re even siding with her and putting
down. That’s really not cool!” As Cong Rong said this, he pulled out his phone. “Here’s what we’ll do. I’ll book a table at Drunken Fairy Building, let’s go there tonight and have a gathering. I can take the chance to get to know your gorgeous and heavenly girlfriend.”
“Sure, tonight, my treat.”
“Great.” Hearing this, Cong Rong imdiately got ready to make a phone call.
The always silent Shen Liangnian, who had been standing next to him, suddenly spoke: “I have sothing on tonight. I should head back first. Have fun, you two.”
“Co on, with Liang Chen finally having a woman, you should join
for this spectacle.”
“No, I really have sothing on tonight.” Shen Liangnian waved his hand, looked at Liang Chen and said, “I’ll take off first.”
“Then I won’t hold you back.” It seed there was no difference to the usual Liang Chen, as he nodded to Shen Liangnian.
Shen Liangnian didn’t say anything. He only snuffed out the cigarette in his hand and, as he turned, his gaze fell on the car window.
The car window was fitted with a reflective film―you couldn’t see inside from the outside, but you could glimpse outside from inside. Jing Haohao distinctly saw the suppression in Shen Liangnian’s eyes. It made her blood run cold. Her hand automatically tightened its grip on her dress hem. Just when she thought Shen Liangnian might call her na, he turned around and left.
After Cong Rong managed to book a table and inford Liang Chen about the room number, he excitedly got into his car parked up front, stepping down on the accelerator and drove straight to Drunken Fairy Building.
…
It was only after Cong Rong’s car has disappeared from their sight that Liang Chen said to Jing Haohao inside the car, “Aren’t you getting out?”
Only then did Jing Haohao bend down and step out of the car. “I’m not feeling well. I’d like to go ho first. Please go ahead and have dinner with Mr. Cong.”
“Haohao, don’t pretend I’m a fool. You’re not feeling well, and yet you were still going about this afternoon with Nanny Lin?”
