Chapter 89 You Guys Talk

• After leaving the hotel, Cheng Cheng hailed a taxi and headed home. On the way, she couldn't help but frown and think about what had happened at the hotel. Although Jiang Gu had shown interest in her appearance and body, he hadn't reached the point of losing his sanity. It was impossible to trap him by using seduction and then reporting him to the police for forcing her. He was too suspicious for that to work. Fortunately, she had never intended to manipulate Jiang Gu using such methods in the first place. Today's incident was just a test to see if Jiang Gu's suspicion was as heavy as she had thought. And sure enough, Jiang Gu didn't disappoint her. His suspicion was as heavy as his uncle, Zhao Qichen. She felt annoyed and confused. Everything seemed like a tangled mess now, which was very bad. It would take several nights of contemplation to sort out her thoughts. If someone could help her, that would be great. But she didn't want to involve anyone else because anyone who helped her at this time would be stepping into muddy waters. So, she had to rely on herself.
• Deng Yujiao still hadn't come back. Jiang Gu quickly sent her a message, apologizing and saying that he was too suspicious, asking her not to be angry. Cheng Cheng comforted him symbolically for a few sentences, then threw her phone aside. Using her own body to set a trap was the most shameful way for her to insult herself, but when she had no other means to attract prey except her body, she had no choice. She leaned on the sofa, gently rubbing her forehead with her hand.
• At the door, the doorbell rang. Cheng Cheng got up to open the door and thought it was Deng Yujiao coming back. When she opened the door, she realized it was Qiao Xing. Qiao Xing saw her and smiled apologetically, "Dr. Cheng, I didn't expect you to live here." Cheng Cheng smiled politely on the surface, but felt a chill in her heart. Zhao Qichen was away on a business trip and still remembered to have Qiao Xing come and check on her. He really cared about her. Qiao Xing handed her a red plastic bag and said, "This is a piece of freshly caught tuna from the sea today. It was sent by Mr. Zhao's friend. Mr. Zhao asked me to bring it to you. It's perfect for making sashimi." Cheng Cheng took it and thanked him. Qiao Xing asked if he could come in and sit for a while, and Cheng Cheng, not wanting to be rude, told him to feel free to sit. Qiao Xing walked in with a smile, just like before. After looking around and making sure no one was there, he asked, "Dr. Deng is living with you, why hasn't she come back yet?" Cheng Cheng finished placing the fish in the kitchen and brewed some tea before explaining, "She should have come back by now, but it seems like she's in a romantic relationship." When Qiao Xing heard that she was in a relationship, he didn't ask any further and just smiled. He didn't have any other business, he just came to see Cheng Cheng and bring some things. After confirming that Zhao Qichen's little darling wasn't sneaking around behind his back, he politely bid farewell.
