Chapter 182: Chapter 182: Delivering Gifts to the Door

Jing Ruo and Jing Su were both slightly surprised, probably because they were used to seeing Bo Jingshen remain unflustered when orchestrating strategies.

Thus, in the face of Su Lu’s situation, he was unable to remain calm and rational.

Moreover, his somewhat unreasonable words at that moment inevitably aroused some astonishment.

However, Jing Su quickly found it no longer strange. If Bo Jingshen was a man who gave up easily, he wouldn’t have achieved what he had today.

Jing Su had heard of some of his experiences abroad—how he had taken on all kinds of hard and dangerous jobs without ever speaking of giving up, and that was how Boss came to be what it was today.

How could he possibly talk about giving up now?

"Fine, have it your way," Jing Su said indifferently. He hadn’t really wanted to involve himself in this matter, nor had he planned to persuade Bo Jingshen.

But inexplicably, Jing Su suddenly recalled a beautiful, clear face, and he couldn’t help asking, "What about your fiancée?"

"Who knows?" Bo Jingshen was somewhat distracted, but he seemed to have thought of something and slightly raised his eyes to look at Jing Su, "Why, are you that concerned about her?"

Whether there was an awkward or uncomfortable expression on Jing Su’s face flashed by too quickly for Bo Jingshen to see.

Nonetheless, from the tone of Jing Su’s voice, there was no telling anything, "Since you’re dissatisfied with this engagement, when you head back to Beijing, I’ll talk to the elders of the Xiao Family. But whatever the case, at least don’t offend the lady first. I’ve seen her skills; they are quite impressive, and beating you up wouldn’t be a problem for her."

Bo Jingshen heard this, remained silent, and simply looked at Jing Su again. Then, he shifted his gaze to meet Jing Ruo’s eyes, and in the eyes of both Bo Jingshen and Jing Ruo, there seemed to be an unspoken understanding.

Jing Su was not a man of many words. Rare moments when he spoke much often made people feel as if he was somewhat uneasy.

Standing aside, Jing Ruo weakly said, "Sister Caizi seems to be staying at a hotel, Jiuzhou International."

Upon hearing this, Jing Su’s eyebrows slightly raised, but he said nothing. Jiuzhou International? He was staying at that same hotel.

Bo Jingshen, however, did not say much more. He quietly looked out the window of the car, but his eyes were unable to take in any of the retreating scenery outside, his mind filled with the image of that pale, weak face he had seen earlier, still not rid of its sickly hue.

Although he had responded with such an unreasonable answer to Jing Su just now.

That didn’t mean he was without a sense of shame. Earlier at the hospital entrance, what Cheng Youran had said wasn’t off the mark at all.

What sin had Su Xiaolu committed to have met him? For him, she was bruised and battered, twice!

Unfortunately, even though he knew this.

He still couldn’t let go, just consider him selfish then.

Bo Jingshen took out his phone, opened WeChat, and sent a message to Cheng Yan.

Bo Jingshen: "Prepare various supplements, make it comprehensive."

Cheng Yan: "Received."

Five minutes later, Cheng Yan listed several types of nutritional foods and supplements and sent it over for Bo Jingshen’s review.

Cheng Yan: "How about preparing according to this?"

Bo Jingshen: "It’s fine."

Cheng Yan: "Who are you sending it to? Are you delivering or should I mail it?"

’I’ll deliver’ had been sent, but Bo Jingshen hesitated for a moment and then sent another message, "Forget it, better you deliver it."

Cheng Yan: "Okay. Who to?"

Bo Jingshen: "Su Lu."

Cheng Yan, being meticulous in his work and not inclined to over inquire, simply sent a ’Received’ emoji.

...

The next day, Su Lu, seeing Cheng Yan standing at her doorstep with a big load of packages, was somewhat speechless.

"Um..." Su Lu adjusted the shawl on her shoulders, looking at Cheng Yan.

Cheng Yan said, "Good morning, Mr. Su."

"Good morning. Do you... need something?"

Cheng Yan smiled, "Heard Mr. Su was unwell and took sick leave, just came to visit."

Su Lu was just about to politely decline, wanting to say there was no need for such trouble.

But it must be said, Cheng Yan spoke very smoothly, not waiting for Su Lu to decline, he continued, "After all, we had a joint project."

Su Lu was thinking about taking Su Yi along with the Fierce Eagle Team to the training site for a change of scenery.

So the words of refusal almost reached his lips and yet he did not speak them.

"...Thank you," said Su Lu.

Cheng Yan smiled, "You’re too polite, Mr. Su. Here, these are just a small token of appreciation, please don’t disdain them."

Cheng Yan said this as he proactively placed the items in the vestibule.

Su Lu was still considering whether to invite Cheng Yan in to sit for a while, but Cheng Yan conducted himself very appropriately.

Sensing it inappropriate to enter a residence where a single woman lived alone, he stood at the door, placed the items in the vestibule, and neatly stepped back out.

Cheng Yan: "Mr. Su, take good care of your health, I won’t disturb you any longer."

Su Lu: "Oh okay, thanks for making the trip all this way and going to so much trouble."

Cheng Yan: "You’re too courteous, Mr. Su."

Su Lu: "I heard that to prepare for the world competition in the second half of the year, the team is going to train, right?"

Cheng Yan, overwhelmed with work, honestly just saw the club as an investment for Jiang Li and her to have some fun, not that he wasn’t interested, but it really wasn’t his top priority, given the many more significant business matters.

Thus, upon hearing this, Cheng Yan pondered for a moment, as if only then recalling such a matter.

"Oh right," Cheng Yan nodded, " there is such a matter, but... not to hide it from you, I really can’t attend to the club’s team matters, it’s mostly managed by Young Master Jiang. Despite seeming indifferent usually, he actually pays close attention to it."

"I see."

"Yes, so if you have matters regarding the club, it’s better to contact Young Master Jiang directly for a more thorough understanding," Cheng Yan said.

Su Lu nodded, "Alright, I got it, I won’t see you out, take care."

Cheng Yan then left Su Lu’s house, walked down the stairs, and exited the building. His car was waiting at the door; the driver opened the passenger-side door for him, and Cheng Yan got into the car.

From the back seat came a somewhat hoarse voice.

"How is she?"

"Mr. Su seems to be in an okay state."

"Did she take the items?"

"She did. It seemed like she wanted to refuse; I mentioned that we had a joint project after all. She didn’t seem to be able to refuse after that."

Cheng Yan reported every detail.

Sitting in the back seat, Bo Jingshen’s gaunt face turned swiftly towards Cheng Yan, "She didn’t mention anything about canceling the partnership, right?"

Cheng Yan shook his head, "No."

His task today from Bo Jingshen wasn’t just as simple as delivering gifts.

But also, if Su Lu suggested ending the partnership, he had to dissuade her by any means.

Fortunately, Su Lu did not make such a suggestion.

"Not only did she not, but she also asked about the club’s matters on her own," Cheng Yan turned his gaze towards Bo Jingshen. "I think you’re worrying too much, Mr. Su is not someone who mixes personal issues with business."
