Chapter 1025: 725 People’s joys and sorrows do not communicate (Thanks for the tip!)_2
"You must be joking. Where would I dare to do that? I just hope that Miss Fang will allow me a bit more time."
Lou Jingjiang was actually somewhat perplexed as to why the other party had sought him out.
Given the Fang Family’s strength, wouldn’t it be much simpler and more efficient to utilize the power of official channels?
"Time, how much time do you need?"
"This..."
Lou Jingjiang hesitated and said with difficulty, "According to what you’ve described, Miss Fang, those people might be foreigners. Without concrete assurance, it’s not easy to act rashly against foreigners, otherwise it could easily cause unnecessary trouble..."
"Slap!"
Fang Ai suddenly slammed the table.
"Lou Jingjiang, are you completely disregarding my words? I’ve told you that no matter who it is, I want them controlled immediately! What does it matter if they are foreigners?! No matter who it is, I will make them regret being alive in this world!"
"Miss Fang, I understand."
Lou Jingjiang bowed his head submissively, "I will report to Young Master Fang..."
"When did I tell you to speak to him?"
Still maintaining his bowed posture, Lou Jingjiang said earnestly, "Miss Fang, I feel that if Young Master Fang were to handle this matter, it might be easier."
"Are you teaching me how to do things?"
Lou Jingjiang immediately responded, "I wouldn’t dare."
"He’s my brother. If I really wanted him to get involved, would I need you to report to him?"
Fang Ai spoke coldly, "Lou Jingjiang, I’m warning you, don’t speak of this matter to anyone. If I catch even a whisper of it from someone else..."
With that,
She paused.
"It hasn’t been easy for you to attain the position you have now."
"The position I have today is all thanks to Miss Fang’s support."
Lou Jingjiang expressed no dissatisfaction, assuring her solemnly, "Rest assured, Miss Fang, I will absolutely keep my lips sealed. If any word leaks, you may hold only me accountable."
Fang Ai stood up.
"I’ll give you three more days."
Upon hearing this, Lou Jingjiang almost protested, likely feeling it was too harsh, yet in the end, he did not argue back for a better deal and silently nodded.
Fang Ai walked out.
As they passed by, Lou Jingjiang also turned around.
"No need to see me out."
Lou Jingjiang stopped, watching the swaying figure as she left.
Indeed, Fang Ai was not particularly attractive, but she had the demeanor of a lady of noble birth. As she reached middle age, her feminine charm grew stronger, and she seemed to become more voluptuous.
Lou Jingjiang still remembered that when they first met, this super socialite, born and raised by the Imperial City, was not as indifferent to him as she was now; on the contrary, she showed a certain degree of fondness for him, especially with her occasional suggestive glances.
As a smart man, Lou Jingjiang of course understood the meaning behind those glances—the temperament of this miss from the Fang Family was hardly a secret in the Capital City.
Throwing oneself at her feet certainly promised immense benefits, but the most commendable quality of Lou Jingjiang was that he would not let immediate temptations cloud his judgment.
The more alluring, the more dangerous.
It was not about any male pride—how much is pride worth anyway? Worthless, utter nonsense.
If he truly chose to "associate" with Fang Ai, he’d first have to consider the feelings of Young Master Fang.
Even though they weren’t blood siblings, no brother would want to see his sister misbehave.
Of course,
As a brother, he surely wouldn’t do anything to his sister, but it would be different for others.
So after careful consideration, Lou Jingjiang decisively ignored Fang Ai’s hints, maintaining his boundaries. His polite discretion paid off, for although he disappointed a beautiful woman’s favor, he successfully garnered the appreciation of Young Master Fang, thus paving his way smoothly in the Capital City.
For this, Lou Jingjiang was very content, and he did not regret his decision at all.
For someone like him, women were trivial; if he wished, any type of woman could come and go at his beck and call.
In dealing with everyone, Lou Jingjiang always had a benchmark in mind, and between Miss Fang and Fang Jun, the siblings, he knew very well whom he couldn’t afford to offend.
After Fang Ai left, he stood in his office, pondering for a while, but eventually, he did not play both ends against the middle by giving Fang Jun a discrete warning.
Even the wise cannot avoid all errors.
Lou Jingjiang’s choice wasn’t wrong, as he could stay out of trouble with both; why should he needlessly complicate things? What a pity that he failed to consider the gravity of the situation.
Exiting the club,
He got into the car, and a frustrated Fang Ai gripped the steering wheel, hardly able to resist smashing it.
Having lived to her present age, she had never encountered anyone daring to target her. More than panic, it was the anger of being offended that dominated her feelings.
The fundamental reason Lou Jingjiang did not realize the seriousness of the problem was actually that she herself had not grasped the potential consequences, hence she conveyed incorrect information to Lou Jingjiang.
Three days, seventy-two hours, searching for a needle in the vast sea that was the Capital City was not an easy task.
But there was no need for so much time.
"Dinglingling..."
The ringtone of the cell phone rang out.
Fang Ai picked up her phone and glanced at the caller ID, discovering it was from a good sister who had been living in Canada for a long time.
The caller was from another noble family in Capital City, but after studying abroad, she settled there permanently.
Everyone’s pursuit is different.
Overseas life indeed offers much more freedom, but Fang Ai preferred the special honor she enjoyed back home.
Practically anyone could live well abroad, but certainly no one would treat her with the same respect as they did here.
"Why did you find time to call me?" Fang Ai adjusted her emotions and smiled.
"Ai... how are you and Ding He doing now? Have you divorced yet?" Fang Ai was baffled.
Why would she ask such a question out of the blue?
"You know what our old man’s temper is like. I married of my own will, and if I divorced, would I dare to step into my house again? I’ll just muddle through."
"You haven’t divorced?" Fang Ai frowned, increasingly puzzled, "Why do you keep asking about that?"
"Ah..." The person on the other end hesitated, apparently hiding some difficulty, "Ai, are you still out playing around?"
They’d been confidantes for over ten years, and of course knew each other’s lifestyles well.
"You’re acting a bit strange today, why do you keep asking these boring questions."
"I’ve advised you before, now that you’re married, you should be more restrained..."
"You’re not suggesting I remain loyal to Ding He, are you? Marrying him is the good fortune he’s cultivated over eight lifetimes..."
"I saw a video on YouTube." Fang Ai’s speech was interrupted.
"What video?"
"I’ll send it to you, take a look for yourself." The call was disconnected.
"Ding dong." Fang Ai clicked in, opened the video, and her puzzled expression immediately froze, her pupils gradually narrowing.
Immediately after, she redialed the call,
"Where did this video come from?!" Her tone began to falter.
It was to be expected.
Surely no one could remain calm in the face of such a situation.
"It’s on YouTube." The caller repeated, YouTube being the hottest social platform abroad, with billions of users.
"Ai, is it really you?" Fang Ai’s face turned pale, unable to speak.
The caller had already received the answer, and continued gravely, "I saw it half an hour ago, the views were only at two hundred thousand, but now it’s broken a million. Ai, I’m worried someone might share this video back home." It was clear.
This was a warning.
Despite the internet firewall between domestic and foreign networks, it doesn’t mean that news spreading internationally would go unnoticed in the home country.
Just like the Europe and America entertainment industry photo scandal that once caused a sensation, many from home had feasted their eyes on it.
"Who uploaded it?! I’ll kill them!!!" Fang Ai was simultaneously shocked and furious, her voice seeming to carry outside the car, continuously spreading into the distance.
Glow Medical Center.
The doors to the operating room opened.
The doctor removed his gloves and stepped out.
"Doctor, how did the surgery go?" Wei Chuyin, who had been anxiously waiting for hours, approached immediately.
"So far it has been smooth, if the vitals remain normal in the next twenty-four hours, then it means the surgery was a complete success." Wei Chuyin turned back.
Jiang Chen, who had risen to his feet, smiled and nodded.
Wei Chuyin covered her mouth, her vision blurring, crying tears of joy.
Sure enough. The joys and sorrows of humanity can never truly be shared.
