C17 A Disaster Caused by Gossip
"Caan, hey, go home by yourself. Don't send me home, here's your fare." Jiang Cheng'an handed over a stack of money and signaled Caan to get off.
Caan didn't say anything. He silently took the money and got off the car. Then, he stopped a taxi at the side of the street. He was also curious as to why his boss would ask him to pick them up in the middle of the night. He knew that he could only do things obediently. One more word would mean disaster.
Jiang Cheng'an sat in the car and watched Caan lower his head as he got into the car. Then, he slowly started the throttle.
While Ann Ran was dozing off on the subway, Jiang Cheng'an was already sitting in the big company, flipping through page after page of gossip, looking at all kinds of articles on the headlines of the Party and lost in thought.
Those reporters had actually turned a blind eye to his warning, and were even printing their pictures and papers. Now that everyone knew about Ann Ran and him, they probably didn't see their dad, right? On the other hand, Yue Sijia had been on the phone, asking him to go home and talk to Jiang Cheng'an alone.
Jiang Cheng'an knew very well that Yue Sijia didn't dare to go to the mansion to find him. After staying in the mansion for the whole afternoon, the empty room said, "The past I didn't feel lonely, it was all because of Ann Ran." Jiang Cheng'an muttered to himself.
Therefore, he disguised himself and took a taxi to Ann Ran's bachelor apartment. As for the keys, it was a small matter for Jiang Cheng'an. All he had to do was take out the photo of Ann Ran on his phone and show it to the property owner, saying that he was Ann Ran's cousin.
When Jiang Cheng'an arrived at Ann Ran's bachelor apartment, although it was a simple one-bedroom apartment, it was very warm and clean. The fragrance of the milk still lingered on Ann Ran's body as she sat on the bed, waiting for Ann Ran to come back.
Ann Ran fell asleep the moment she returned. She didn't notice Jiang Cheng'an, who was mostly covered by the blanket. Thus, the scene from last night occurred.
Ann Ran knew nothing about the matter of Jiang Cheng'an waiting for her at the apartment building last night. In her heart, Jiang Cheng'an was nothing more than a dissolute young master.
The subway was normal at the start, so no one was suspicious of Ann Ran's existence. However, with the young lady and the young master Jiang Family entering and leaving the house, it would be weird if something big didn't happen.
Even though Jiang Cheng'an was a little overbearing and a little flowery, he captured the hearts of girls with his good skin and his personal belongings that made countless people jealous. After all, Jiang Cheng'an's existence seemed to be born to satisfy the hearts of girls.
"Hey, did you see that? The big news from yesterday was great." On the subway, a girl who looked like a student said to her companion.
"Please, how could I not know about that?" The other girl received it.
Ann Ran was panicking a little in her heart. How could she not remember what happened yesterday? She was slightly worried. Could it be that they were discussing about that matter again? He silently pulled up the collar of his trench coat to cover some of his face. As the saying goes, be careful and let the ship sail for ten thousand years. It wasn't wrong to be cautious.
"Look, Jiang Cheng'an's family is so rich, but it's never exposed that they are taking girls home to stay, sigh …" And here I thought he was really the perfect Prince Charming, different from the other rich people. Girl A said with some disappointment.
"I feel like there was a picture of that girl in the gossip yesterday. She doesn't look that good either, maybe she wanted to hook up with Jiang Cheng'an on purpose. Who wouldn't want to face that handsome face every day? "If I do, I will see Jiang Cheng'an. I will also think of a way to get closer to him." The female student said with an expression of infatuation.
"Tsk, Jiang Cheng'an. You really are liked by many beautiful girls. So, I became a public enemy? You became a shameless woman who hooked up with you? " Ann Ran silently cursed. Hide yourself in an inconspicuous corner.
The carriage, which was originally quiet, became restless due to the discussions of the students.
The white-collar beauty A said, "Actually, I'm also very envious. How much less stress should be placed on life if I could have such a relationship with Jiang Cheng'an? Besides, it was such a huge resource! "Tsk, I'm so envious."
The person beside him chimed in, "That's right. Look, this is just a fairy tale. Maybe that girl is driving a luxury car around the mall right now."
"Aiyo, my great-aunt is bored. I'm just an ordinary person, how can I compare to what you guys are talking about? There are even luxurious cars, and they are all still on the subway." Ann Ran rolled her eyes in annoyance and replied to the white-collar lady in her heart.
Even though Ann Ran was quite open-minded, she was actually quite uneasy. Especially since she would be at the company in a short while. She really didn't know how to deal with it.
Ding, they arrived at the stop. Ann Ran followed the crowd and got off the subway. Luckily, although people were talking about her, most of their focus was on Jiang Cheng'an.
Ann Ran, who was slightly relieved, walked to the entrance of the company and was stunned. There were so many people! What was going on?
"Hey, the person you're looking for isn't here. She's over there." The front desk girl pointed to the direction of Ann Ran in a hurry, anxious to leave out the reporters who stopped Jiang Cheng'an at the entrance of the company early in the morning.
Most of the reporters were scared off by Jiang Cheng'an's dark face, so they didn't dare to ask this Young Master Jiang question. Some of them just stared at Ann Ran.
Ye Zichen bumped into a gossipy head hunter with Jiang Cheng'an, then pointed a few men carrying cameras towards Ann Ran for a while.
"Ah!" "What are you doing?" Ann Ran subconsciously used her hand to block the light coming from the flash, feebly blocking it.
"Excuse me, are you a woman that Young Master Jiang brought home? What is your relationship with her?" A receiver appeared in front of Ann Ran.
Before Ann Ran could open her mouth, another microphone came in: "Does Young Master Jiang have any special relationship with you?"
It was a chaos. Ann Ran was a little dazed. She was surrounded by many people, like an animal being watched in a park. She knew that these people just wanted to dig out Jiang Cheng'an's private life and sell it on the front page. As long as she denied having anything to do with Jiang Cheng'an, this matter would be over.
Ann Ran thought very simply.
"Um, young master Jiang Cheng'an and I are only in the same company, we don't have anything to do with each other. It was me who got into trouble that day. Jiang Cheng'an did a good deed and saved me out of kindness. " Ann Ran said.
It was clear that this righteous answer was not enough to satisfy the covetous reporters. More sharp questions came one after another.
"Truly, what I said was the truth. What exactly do they want?" I really want someone to help me! " Ann Ran complained in her heart. How could a girl with an ordinary upbringing deal with these sophisticated gossips and entertainments?
Jiang Cheng'an is in the office, he knows that those who are in trouble will come here. Since they ignored the previous alarm, this time, even if they don't dare to touch me, they will go and find trouble with Ann Ran.
