President Mo: Need to Work Hard

171

"The long..."

"My grandfather called me ... Tangning, I'll take care of her," Long Jie no longer dared to act cold in front of Tangning; she knew how beautiful she was.

Tangning tightened her grip on her phone and nodded as she replied, "Rest."

Long Jie hung up the phone as she collapsed on the floor from exhaustion.

It seemed like dealing with Lan Xi did not even require much energy.

Long Jie had considered telling Tangning everything directly. But other than dragging him into this mess, he could not think of what benefits could be gained from it.

All this time, Tangning had already suffered too much. If she told Tangning about this incident, then Tangning and Lan Xi would definitely not let this matter pass.

He would think of a way to save his grandfather. But, Lan Xi shouldn't have dreamed of hurting Tangning!

Especially not using him!

...

Tangning lowered her hand to the side as she stood with deep thought beside the window. She didn't know if she thought too much about it, but she felt Long Jie's mood was a little different than usual.

Behind her, Mo Ting approached with a jacket. After putting the jacket on his shoulder, he pulled it into his embrace.

Tangning leaned against her comfortable chest as she looked at Mo Ting, "Ting..can we ask Lu Che to check on Long Jie? I feel like something's wrong."

In reality, Lu Che didn't have much free time, but Mo Ting simply lowered his head and kissed Tangning on the forehead. If his wife had a request, she would definitely fulfill it. So, he immediately pulled out his phone and called Lu Che; setting out a special mission for someone who was already inactive.

...

Lu Che did not dare to delay. Even though she was done working, she still drove straight to Long Jie's house.

Although barging into the woman's house after dark wasn't the right thing, to convince Tangning, Lu Che walked up the stairs and rang Long Jie's doorbell.

Long Jie wasn't expecting any guests. He quickly wiped his tears and asked who was outside.

Lu Che gave his reason for coming. At this moment, Long Jie felt her heart warm but she still did not open the door, "You can go back, I'm fine, I've slept."

Lu Che nodded and did not continue to disturb. But, Mo Ting insisted that he should meet her, so Lu Che stood guard outside Long Jie's front door all night. It wasn't until the next morning when Long Jie left the house as usual, she found Lu Che standing outside; she was shocked.

"It's cold outside, why haven't you come home yet?"

Lu Che rubbed his hands together and smiled, "I slept in the car and just woke up."

Seeing Lu Che's nose turning red from the cold, Long Jie quickly let him into the house, "At least warm up a little."

Lu Che entered Long Jie's house, his voice full of doubt, "Don't you say your grandfather is visiting? Where is he?"

Long Jie was stunned for a moment before replying calmly, "At the hotel ..."

"Are you facing some kind of difficulty?" Lu Che looked around; this was where Tangning used to live. It was large enough to fit an entire family, how could Long Jie ask her grandfather to stay at the hotel?

Plus, Long Jie's eyes were swollen to the size of a walnut. This is obviously due to crying all night.

"No..."

"Even if you don't say it, I can ask the president to investigate it ..."

"No need," Long Jie pulled Lu Che over and let go quickly as she took a few steps back, "You don't need to make too many people worry about this matter."

"Then, tell me," Lu Che sat on the living room sofa.

In reality, Long Jie couldn't be blamed for not being able to keep a secret. According to his personality, even if the sky was about to collapse, he would only shout a few times; there was no way he would look as gloomy as he was now. So, especially with his fake smile, it was hard not to suspect anything was wrong.

"I'm. I'm being squeezed."

Long Jie lowered her head before telling Lu Che the whole story. But, from start to finish he emphasized one thing, "Don't tell Tangning, don't influence her decision to go to Feng Cai. We can't let Lan Xi get what she wants, otherwise, she'll think she can.satisfy her motives by doing things like this."

"In the future, he'll be even worse!"

"But you can't just survive like an idiot ..."

"Lan Xi wanted to conspire against Tangning. If I don't pretend to compromise with him, he'll think of another way. Rather than that, I'd rather beat him at his own game."

"But what are you going to do? And what about your grandfather?" Lu Che loosened his tie; he did not know whether to laugh or cry.

There were many people like Lan Xi in this world. And of course, there were also people like Long Jie who would rather suffer on their own.

How stupid!

Lu Che was a little annoyed.

"When the time is right...I'll call the police!"

"I will send someone to investigate where they detained your grandfather and try to ensure his safety. If I get a chance, I'll definitely get it out of there!" Lu Che promised.

From her own point of view, Long Jie felt her consideration for Tangning was the right thing to do.

If he told Tangning, it would strengthen the situation and would probably cause Lan Xi to resort to more extreme measures.

However, if he did what Lan Xi said, he would have to suffer too much ...

So, holding on for now and calling the police later was the best option he could think of. But, Lu Che was afraid that Lan Xi would take revenge on Long Jie's grandfather.

"Even if you don't plan on telling Madam, you should at least seek help from a trustworthy person; two brains are better than one. Do you trust our president? If you tell him, things will be much easier .. ."

With Lu Che's attention, Long Jie felt much better. But, he still decided to take it as a small matter, "I know the capabilities of Big Boss, but I don't want to bet with my grandfather. I'm afraid if we blow up the situation, it will be harder to control. . If we accidentally injure my grandfather, what will we do? Let me handle Lan Xi."

"If that's the case, then .. hurry up and take a break. You must have not slept well last night, I will be here outside your door," Lu Che's voice softly.

"On the night Tangning will appear at Feng Cai, Lan Xi wants me to be Li Danni's assistant. As you know, Tangning and Li Danni did not get along with each other. Lan Xi wanted Tangning to see me suffer and give up on her interview."

"For you, Madam will definitely give up on the interview..." Lu Che also believed that Tangning was the type of person; she always protected her own people, even if it was just a simple assistant ...

He would never let others bully them!

"So we definitely can't let Lan Xi succeed. I will continue my acting. Meanwhile, I hope you can point Tangning in the right direction. The best thing you can do is. on the day of the interview, tell him not to bring his phone. Lan Xi did not say I should really trick Tangning into coming!"

He wanted to play Tai Chi 1 with Lan Xi.

After speaking to Lu Che, Long Jie turned around and returned to her room. As he lay on his bed, he thought of the man sitting outside; he felt much more peaceful.

Like this, Lu Che ended up staying at Long Jie's house all morning.

In addition to calling Mo Ting and Tangning to make preparations for the show, she also contacted a reporter she knew to look for Long Jie's grandfather.

Long Jie mentioned that she last saw her grandfather at Lan Xi's house, but according to Lan Xi's personality, she would definitely move her hostage.

On the surface, Cheng Tian looked peaceful. But...

...Behind it all, trouble is brewing.

Tangning definitely would not have imagined, the crisis that Long Jie was trying to overcome...

...will make a calm person like himself, explode in anger.

Lan Xi had stepped over her bottom line this time...
