Chapter 251: Chapter 251: Jiang Li ’Blind Dating’?
Jiang Su knew that his father actually came to regret his ways over the years and had always wanted to reconcile with his youngest son. But he always used the wrong methods...
The father didn’t want the relatives to look down on his youngest son, so he belittled Ying Heng in front of them, pushing all the blame onto a deceased man, simply wishing others wouldn’t disdain his own son.
But Jiang Li certainly couldn’t accept this sentiment.
Because the dead man whom his father kept belittling was someone who died for him.
So Jiang Su later actually saw his father’s regret, and his father probably knew he had chosen the wrong way.
But it was probably very hard to mend things now.
Later, the father also brought it up from time to time in a roundabout and awkward manner, implying that Jiang Li had no proper occupation and might be loafing around too much, surely destined to be unsuccessful and short on cash.
The implication was also that Jiang Su shouldn’t forget to give his brother money.
And this time, while in the hospital, the father also hinted indirectly, presumably hoping that Jiang Li would come.
Therefore, Jiang Su also mentioned it a few times in front of Jiang Li, who, however, had no thoughts of complying, apparently remembering the previous incident all too well.
Thus, noticing Jiang Li’s strong aversion, Jiang Su changed the subject, "Anyway, Su Yukan is in this hospital, it’s indeed a cerebral hemorrhage."
Jiang Li didn’t want to show any temper toward his elder brother and naturally went along with the change of topic, "Is it serious?"
"With this ailment, even if it isn’t serious, it’s not going to be easy," Jiang Su said. "I can inquire about it, but from what you said, if she really came back to Feng City, I think it’s very likely because of this. It’s certainly not because of Bo Jingshen’s involvement."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Li sighed softly, "That makes sense. It seems like neither of them knows about the other’s situation, so naturally there’s no way it’s for Bo Jingshen’s sake."
"..." Jiang Su pondered for a moment and then said in a low voice, "That’s not necessarily the case."
"Hmm?" Jiang Li asked, "What did you say?"
"Do you think everyone is as silly and naive as you? Never mind that, I’ve booked a car for you, didn’t you like that limited edition model? I’ve already placed the order, it’ll arrive in three months, just in time to be your birthday gift," Jiang Su told him.
Jiang Li laughed, "Thanks, bro!"
"No need to thank me. It’s better than waiting for someone else to pick you up..." Jiang Su said.
Jiang Su had a headache, he always felt that this idiot’s contact with Ying Heng’s younger brother was not a good thing.
But the idiot, feeling indebted to Ying Heng, had taken it upon himself to look after his brother, and that care had continued for years.
And the brother was still in the dark, completely unaware of Ying Heng’s past deeds, yet over the years, he had become very close friends with Jiang Li, the idiot.
Even when he took Jiang Li out for a meal, if that Mr. Ying had time, he would come to pick them up.
Jiang Su, being heterosexual, a straight man, actually couldn’t quite determine whether this friendship was normal or not, whether it was just mutual care between friends or something else.
Anyway, Jiang Su was quite distressed.
After ending the call, Jiang Su indeed had someone inquire for him, and thus found out that indeed, Su Zhe had returned to Feng City.
"Su Zhe hasn’t come back to Feng City often over the years; this time, he probably came back because of his dad’s illness," Ji Chuanbai said on the other end of the phone. "After all, Su Zhe’s business isn’t all that extensive in Feng City, it’s mainly with our family. It seems like from the beginning, he consciously chose not to concentrate his business in Feng City, quite deliberately."
Ji Chuanbai, Ji Fulian’s cousin, also dealt in the herb trade, and indeed had a lot of business dealings with Su Zhe’s pharmaceutical enterprises.
And the things he was saying on the phone were things Jiang Su could very well understand.
Su Zhe was indeed very deliberate, probably always hoping to stay away from Feng City, essentially, to stay away from his father, Su Yukan.
"He also didn’t come back much in recent years, but he used to visit often. In the past, it was because his sister was still in Feng City, but in recent years, she hasn’t been there, right?" Although Ji Chuanbai wasn’t particularly interested in the high society gossip of Feng City, sometimes, you couldn’t avoid hearing things, being in that circle.
"Seems like not long after her divorce from the Gu Family, she left Feng City?" Ji Chuanbai wasn’t sure, "Anyway, after that, Su Zhe seldom came to Feng City, and the business dealings with our family were usually handled by his partner, Qiao Li."
"Oh... I see," said Jiang Su, "Thanks, Chuanbai."
"No problem," Ji Chuanbai laughed on the other end, "But hey, Ah Su, what do you need this info for? Do you have a beef with Su Zhe?"
"No beef, we’re not even acquainted, just inquiring," Jiang Su also laughed, "After all, you know what my family does."
"Hey!" Ji Chuanbai on the end said, "You run such a big and successful media business, could you not make it sound like you’re a paparazzi?"
Jiang Su had a few more laughs with him before preparing to end the call.
But just before hanging up, Ji Chuanbai couldn’t help but stop him, sounding somewhat hesitant, "Ah Su."
"Hmm? What is it?" Jiang Su didn’t understand.
Ji Chuanbai: "It’s just... there’s something I’m not sure if I should say."
Jiang Su said resignedly, "You’ve already started, so just say it."
"Okay, don’t take offense," Ji Chuanbai continued, "I heard that your brother... Ah Li, he... likes men, right?"
Jiang Su: "..."
He was silent for quite a while before saying, "Do you have a point?"
Ji Chuanbai, sensing some displeasure in Jiang Su’s voice, could only start with an apology, "Sorry, I didn’t mean any harm."
Then he continued, "I have no prejudice; just to tell you, you know my brother Fuling, right?"
"I’ve met him a few times. Not well-acquainted," Jiang Su said, suddenly with an uneasy premonition, "What about him?"
"Just... they, he and your brother Ah Li, are the same," Ji Chuanbai said.
It took Jiang Su three seconds to realize what Ji Chuanbai meant by they were the same.
"So... what about it?" Jiang Su asked again.
Ji Chuanbai let out a helpless sigh, "Fuling seems to really like Ah Li. You think... could you, maybe mention it to Ah Li? Since the situation can’t be changed anyway, times are different now, society is quite tolerant, but I’ve heard that their circle can sometimes be quite chaotic. Rather than having them go out there and get bullied or fooled by people with bad intentions, it’s better to be with someone we know well..."
Now Jiang Su got the subtext; his eyes widened in shock, "What do you mean? Ji Chuanbai, are you here trying to set up a ’blind date’ for my brother?"
