Chapter 95: Chapter 95: You Don’t Agree?

Inside the Western restaurant.

Hu Kun and Manager Wang continued their act of harmony, while An Tong remained mostly silent, occasionally forcing a smile.

However, compared to their earlier enthusiasm towards An Tong, after she rejected them a few times, the attitudes of Manager Wang and Hu Kun subtly changed.

Though they maintained a façade of friendliness, both Hu Kun and Manager Wang were secretly belittling An Tong’s qualifications and status, trying to make her realize how fortunate she would be to be with Hu Kun.

Finally, after enduring an uncomfortable lunch, An Tong tried to leave, but was still held back by Manager Wang, insisting that she accompany Hu Kun for a walk no matter what she said.

While speaking, Manager Wang wore a smiling face, but her words were undeniable.

An Tong, by nature, was not good at directly refusing and had a gentle and calm demeanor, making her easily manipulated by Manager Wang.

Manager Wang was a manager from another department and didn’t have much contact with An Tong, but was two levels higher than her. In terms of aura and sophistication, she almost overwhelmingly dominated An Tong.

Seeing she couldn’t refuse, An Tong picked up her phone and, upon seeing no reply from Li Jing, a trace of disappointment flashed in her eyes. She could only let Manager Wang half pull and half drag her out of the restaurant.

At this moment, Hu Kun used his car key to light up the XPeng electric car parked by the roadside, smiled, and said, "Miss An, that’s my car. Let’s head over."

"Aren’t we just walking nearby?"

An Tong frowned and said, "No need to drive; the mall is right next door..."

"Oh, what’s worth walking around here? You work here every day, haven’t you seen enough of it?"

Manager Wang hooked An Tong’s arm and smiled, "Xiaohu usually loves to play, and the places he takes you to are definitely fun. Just get in the car, Wang Jie wouldn’t deceive you, right?"

"Let’s just forget it..." An Tong took a step back, frowned, and said, "If it’s too far, I won’t go. I have something this afternoon..."

"What could you possibly have to do? Your parents aren’t here, and you took leave from work, don’t lie to Wang Jie, be good, and go with Xiaohu..."

Rumble, rumble, rumble.

At this moment, the sudden roar of an engine broke out, and a Maserati quickly drove from afar and stopped by the roadside.

The Maserati naturally caught the attention of Hu Kun and the other two.

Manager Wang noticed the delight in An Tong’s eyes and couldn’t help but frown and displeasedly say, "Xiaotong, people who drive these cars aren’t someone we can cling to, quickly go with Xiaohu..."

"An Tong, what are you doing here?"

At this point, the window of the Maserati slid down, revealing Li Jing’s calm face in the driver’s seat.

"Li Jing, I..."

Hearing this, An Tong hurriedly shook off Manager Wang’s hand, stepped forward two steps, wanting to say something, but didn’t know what to say.

"You two know each other?"

Manager Wang’s expression changed, subconsciously looking at Hu Kun beside her.

And Hu Kun squinted slightly, observing Li Jing as he got out of the Maserati, a hint of hostility rising, he frowned slightly and asked, "Who are you?"

Li Jing, who had already roughly understood the situation from An Tong’s messages, walked up confidently, naturally wrapping an arm around An Tong’s waist, looked calmly at Hu Kun and said, "I’m An Tong’s boyfriend, who are you?"

"You’re her boyfriend?"

Hu Kun widened his eyes, then suddenly turned his head to look at Manager Wang beside him.

Manager Wang’s expression stiffened slightly, hurriedly turning her gaze to An Tong, with a hint of reprimand she quickly said, "Xiaotong, aren’t you single? How come you have a boyfriend?"

An Tong was also surprised by Li Jing’s words, but for some reason, she didn’t rebut. Instead, being embraced by him gave her an inexplicable sense of security.

She mustered up the courage to meet Manager Wang’s eyes and said, "I just got together with him. I’ve actually stopped going on blind dates lately. It was you who insisted on bringing me here..."

Upon hearing this, Manager Wang’s face grew increasingly unpleasant, and glancing at Li Jing’s calm face, she was somewhat apprehensive, momentarily unsure of what to say.

Instead, Hu Kun noticed An Tong’s words lacked confidence, knowing it wasn’t that simple between them, he couldn’t help but smile and approach Li Jing, asking:

"Brother, what do you do for a living? This car looks cool, not to mention, it looks quite similar to one my friend rented before."

Upon hearing this, Li Jing couldn’t help but chuckle softly. Was this an attempt to get me to talk?

He glanced sideways at Hu Kun, with a half-smile and said, "Where did your friend rent it? I’m curious how much it’ll cost to rent my car, which is worth over 3.4 million, for a day."

Hearing that this car was worth over three million, Hu Kun couldn’t help his eyelids from twitching, just as he was about to say more, another black Jeep Wrangler drove up from behind.

Two muscular men stepped off, the gym owners Zhou Shun and Huang Jun.

Noticing the tension between Li Jing and Hu Kun, Huang Jun raised an eyebrow and immediately strode over, casting a glance over Hu Kun and Manager Wang, then looked at Li Jing and asked suspiciously, "Brother Jing, weren’t we going to eat upfront? Do you have business here?"

In this atmosphere, Huang Jun deliberately called Li Jing "Brother Jing," not only giving his brother face but also unintentionally standing between the parties, creating enormous pressure on Hu Kun and the others.

Especially Manager Wang, with her petite frame of only 1.6 meters, watching Huang Jun approach like a giant bear, she instinctively retreated two steps, her breathing a bit erratic.

And Hu Kun, internally surprised, forced a calm expression on his face, but still somewhat awkwardly said, "What, you want to outnumber us?"

"Is there a misunderstanding? Do you think there’s anything you have that I want to outmatch?"

Li Jing smiled gently and glanced at An Tong, saying, "I just want to ask, what do you mean by dragging my girlfriend to dine with you?"

As soon as he spoke, although Li Jing’s expression remained calm, Huang Jun’s eyes widened like an angry guardian, and not far away, Zhou Shun continued smoking, casting a cold glance every now and then.

Unable to withstand the atmosphere any longer, Manager Wang was the first to bend, quickly forcing a smile and saying, "A misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, we didn’t know Xiaotong had a boyfriend, otherwise, we wouldn’t have done this."

"Oh, so that’s the case."

Li Jing pretended to realize, then calmly looked at her, "Now you know, right?"

"Know, know." Manager Wang nodded quickly, not forgetting to secretly tug at Hu Kun’s sleeve.

Hu Kun’s expression was unpleasant, wanting to say something, but after glancing at the Maserati by the roadside, then at Huang Jun and Zhou Shun smoking not far away, he ultimately chose to keep quiet.

Seeing that even the other party didn’t dare to say much, Li Jing was too lazy to pursue further, and instead publicly kissed An Tong on the cheek and smiled, "Next time, remember to call. I might not always catch a message promptly."

Being kissed, An Tong’s face instantly turned bright red, but she didn’t shy away; instead, she felt delighted inside, shyly nodding.

Watching An Tong, who acted nonchalantly in front of him but like a lamb in front of Li Jing, Hu Kun’s eyes widened, his molars almost crushed.

Seeing the two were already in the car, before Hu Kun could speak, Huang Jun specifically passed by and coldly questioned him:

"You seem dissatisfied?"

Being overshadowed entirely by Huang Jun’s burly frame, Hu Kun’s heart tightened, at last feeling the pressure from the other side, he struggled to force a smile and said, "No, no, it was a misunderstanding."

"That’s good."

Huang Jun reached out and patted him on the shoulder, nearly scattering his body with the force, then laughed before leaving, and, with Zhou Shun finished smoking, got into the Wrangler and followed Li Jing’s Maserati off into the distance.

Watching the two cars gracefully depart, Hu Kun’s expression was extremely unpleasant, but wary of the others, he had nowhere to vent his frustrations, so he could only bite his teeth down painfully.

And on the side, Manager Wang glanced at Hu Kun, somewhat embarrassedly said, "Xiaohu, I really didn’t know An Tong had a boyfriend, and such a capable one at that..."

"Xiaohu?"

Hu Kun’s voice raised a notch, turned his head and with an ironic laugh said, "Manager Wang, shouldn’t the act be over by now?"

Hearing this, Manager Wang’s expression changed, she hurriedly and respectfully said, "Yes, yes, yes, Director Hu, I’m really sorry, I didn’t expect it to turn out like this, I thought that An Tong didn’t have any background or connections, that’s why..."

Before she could finish, Hu Kun coldly interrupted, "Enough! Don’t come to me about your son’s internship again; I can’t help you as such a big manager."

"Hey, Director Hu, don’t go, we agreed on this before, I even got An Tong to come out..."

Bam.

With an angry slam of the car door, Hu Kun left furiously, leaving Manager Wang standing foolishly in place, her face pale, regretfully murmuring:

"Where did An Tong find such a powerful boyfriend, if I’d known you had such backing, I wouldn’t have provoked you..."
