Chapter 183 She Will Never Be as Good as Xiao Leng
Chapter 183 She Will Never Be as Good as Xiao Leng
The sudden physical contact startled Noila Mo. Even though she didn't feel any disgust, she still pulled her arm away.
"Mr. Jiang, is there anything else?"
It’s President Jiang again…
The distant tone again made Jiang Baishen's heart hurt.
"What's wrong with you?" Jiang Baishen couldn't help but ask.
Noila Mo felt a surge of nameless anger in her heart. She turned around, suppressed her emotions, and replied as dignified and politely as possible: “If Mr. Jiang is okay, I still have a manuscript to finish, so I’ll go back first.”
Jiang Baishen wanted to speak up to stop her, but he found that he didn't even have the right to talk to her any more.
After hesitating for two seconds, he forced a smile, "...Okay, then don't be too busy, come earlier..."
"Brother?" Before he could finish his words, a girl's playful voice sounded behind him.
Jiang Baishen turned around and saw Jiang Manxi almost walking up to him.
Noila Mo also looked in the direction of the voice unconsciously, and was stunned for a moment.
Only then did she realize that the girl was Jiang Baishen's sister, the daughter of the Jiang family.
"Didn't I tell you to wait for me in the car?" Jiang Baishen complained.
"I won't." Jiang Manxi retorted coquettishly, and at the same time looked at Mo Yilan in front of her closely.
Is this the woman who can bring a unique light to her brother's eyes?
Even if she just casually put on a tweed coat over her pajamas, she couldn't hide her scholarly temperament. She was also quite pretty. Although she didn't look like someone from the celebrity circle, she looked like a very serious person.
However, she still prefers Sister Xiao Leng to be her sister-in-law compared to a strange woman.
After all, apart from being a nearly perfect human being, she also has a bond with her brother since childhood, and she is her brother's savior. How many people in this world can have such a bond?
Besides, Sister Xiao Leng is not married yet, so who can say for sure what will happen tomorrow?
"Who is this lady?" Jiang Manxi asked, her tone filled with a hint of wariness.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Baishen immediately introduced: "This is Mo Yilan, a reporter from Central China Television."
Then he looked at Noila Mo and introduced his sister, Jiang Manxi.
"I've heard of you a long time ago. Nice to meet you, Miss Jiang." Mo Yilan took the initiative to extend her hand, with a polite smile full of kindness.
Seeing this, Jiang Manxi also extended her hand and shook hands politely, "Hello, Miss Mo."
"Just call me Yilan, or Sister Yilan." Mo Yilan added for the first time, and she was even surprised when she said it.
After all, she is not a very outgoing person, but when facing this little girl, she unconsciously became much more kind.
Jiang Baishen felt miserable. It turned out she wasn't that cold and indifferent. Why was she so distant from him?
Jiang Manxi felt the other party's friendliness and kindness. She could feel that she had no aversion to this Mo Yilan, but the sense of crisis for her little sister Leng still prompted her to reply defensively:
"I think we don't have many opportunities to meet, so there's no need to be so polite."
As soon as the words fell, Jiang Baishen immediately opened his mouth in dissatisfaction and threatened: "Man Xi!"
And Noila Mo also understood what the other party meant, and felt a little disappointed, but she didn't intend to argue with the little girl.
"What's wrong, brother? Don't we still have to go find Sister Xiao Leng? Why are we wasting time here?" Jiang Manxi still had a proud look on her face and had no intention of admitting her mistake.
The three words "Little Leng Sister" hit Noila Mo forcefully, and her heart suddenly felt like it was submerged by a wave, and she felt uncomfortable.
Originally, she didn't think there was anything wrong with the other party's attitude, but considering the difference in the way they addressed each other, how could she not understand what the other party meant?
So she will never be as good as Xiao Leng, whether in Jiang Baishen's heart or in the hearts of Jiang Baishen's family.
forget it.
“If you still have something to do, go quickly and don’t delay.” Noila Mo said this indifferently, and without stopping, she turned around and resolutely walked back to her apartment.
Jiang Baishen was originally still wondering when they said they were going to see Xiao Leng? But when he saw Mo Yilan's back, he immediately fell into helplessness. Only when facing her, he always felt so powerless.
"Okay, brother, let's go." Jiang Manxi didn't care and went back to the car with a victorious attitude.
"..." Jiang Baishen was speechless, feeling that he should teach Jiang Manxi a lesson.
Why don't you ask dad to stop her driving?

The University of Tokyo is still brightly lit at night.
After Zeng Yichen received the time from Chi Tao, he came early and waited under the experimental building. He sat on the ladder in front of the building, sometimes looking up to look for Ji Ran's figure, and sometimes staring at the ground in a daze.
He didn't know if he could bear what was about to happen next.
He doesn't know what path his future life will take.
He even had no idea how to tell Ji Baobei about this later.
Oh...it's time to die.
While I was daydreaming, the roar of a motorcycle sounded from not far away.
His heart was surging and he looked up at the end of the road.
The familiar and handsome figure came into view and stopped in front of him.
"Ji Bao...Ji Ran." Zeng Yichen called weakly.
Ji Ran got out of the car, took off his helmet, and casually hung it on the handlebars. He walked straight towards the building without even glancing at Zeng Yichen. He just said,
"Go upstairs."
Zeng Yichen followed immediately.
"Professor Ji."
The security guard saw Ji Ran smiling as usual and then saw Zeng Yichen behind her. Just as he was about to ask, he heard Ji Ran throw out a sentence without even turning his head:
"Come back and ask me to sign again."
"Oh! Got it." The security guard replied and didn't ask any more questions.
Seeing this, Zeng Yichen followed Ji Ran closely, not daring to say a word.
This was the first time she personally brought him into the building. How impressive!
From the elevator to the corridor, it was eerily quiet except for the sound of footsteps.
Finally, he arrived at the office. Ji Ran opened the door, turned on the light, and sat down on the sofa.
Zeng Yichen followed in and closed the door on his own initiative. Then he looked at Ji Ran awkwardly, not knowing whether he should sit down.
"Go ahead. Tell me something." Ji Ran went straight to the point.
"Uh..." Zeng Yichen was a little overwhelmed by this straight ball, and he looked around unconsciously.
"There are no recordings and no cameras." Ji Ran reminded coldly, "This is an office in the research building. It's absolutely private."
"Um...ok...ok." Zeng Yichen scratched his head in shame, as if his inner thoughts were seen through.
"If you don't believe it, forget it, just go back." Ji Ran's patience gradually disappeared.
Although she really wanted to get some useful clues from Zeng Yichen, she could tell from what happened last time at Zeng's house that Zeng Yichen didn't trust her that much, so she was too lazy to force him.
"No, no! I trust you!!" Zeng Yichen explained hurriedly upon seeing this.
