Chapter 107: Young, Yet Reliable

Jiang Sui lowered the oversized sunglasses perched on the bridge of her nose a little, so she could see the person more clearly.

“Found him?” Shi Heng’s gaze followed hers as well.

“He looks a bit young, doesn’t he?” Shi Heng commented.

Jiang Sui’s lips curved. “Young, but useful.”

Shi Heng felt that there was a deeper meaning in her words, though they did not seem to be wrong.

“I’m leaving first.” Jiang Sui stood, picked up her bag, and headed off. “I’ll contact you later.”

“Good luck.” Shi Heng arched a brow and watched her go.

He lived near the university, so when he heard Jiang Sui was coming, he came over right away.

He also took the chance to talk work and, incidentally, to share a little heart-to-heart.

He knew who Jiang Sui was looking for, and he knew what she intended to do.

She had not hidden anything from him. She had said that since he was her agent, they were a single unit. So she told him her plans without reservation.

Shi Heng had been both surprised and moved by her trust.

As for what she wanted to do, at first he thought Jiang Sui was being a little fanciful.

After all, she had no background in the entertainment industry, no powerful backing, and she was still too young. She had not yet secured a firm footing in the circle.

But—

When he learned that this woman was a hidden little rich girl, and that she had already planned everything out in exacting detail—

all at once, he dispelled his original thoughts.

It turned out the clown was him.

Jiang Sui was the one with the real business mind!

So now all Shi Heng had to do was fulfill an agent’s duty and not drag his wealthy boss down.

Ah—having a boss who was not short on money and could be backed with sheer spending power was truly easy.

Just the speed of this latest crisis management had already blown his mind.

It was simply too swift.

And he didn’t even need to worry about funding.

As generous as Jiang Sui was in that regard, she was still stingy in daily life.

For example, with this milk tea, he still had to buy it.

After school, Jiang Lai hurried off as fast as he could to the side of the road, ready to scan a shared bike and race off to his part-time job.

But just as he took out his phone, a car horn caught his attention.

He looked toward the curb beside the road, where a sports car was parked.

Through the window, he could see a young woman at the wheel.

She wore oversized sunglasses, and though her face was hidden, she gave off an unmistakably refined aura at a glance.

One thing was certain: she was the real thing, a genuine rich woman.

Not some man-kept mistress, and not some internet celebrity.

A true wealthy woman and a woman with only a flashy shell were entirely different in temperament.

Of course, he did not assume this rich woman was greeting him, so he was about to continue scanning the bike.

Then Jiang Sui called out, “Jiang Lai.”

Only then did Jiang Lai look over at her, his eyes carrying a trace of confusion and surprise.

Jiang Sui pressed a button, and the car door opened automatically.

She looked at him, the corners of her lips lifting. “Get in.”

Jiang Lai froze for a moment, then frowned. “Who are you? What do you want with me?”

Jiang Sui knew boys his age were usually on high alert, so she made something up on the spot. “I’m your mother’s best friend’s daughter. I need to talk to you.”

Jiang Lai frowned. His mother?

How could his mother have such a wealthy best friend?

Still, since she had said that, he canceled the bike scan, looked left and right, memorized Jiang Sui’s license plate, and only then got into the passenger seat.

As he climbed in, Jiang Sui caught sight of him sending some message on his phone.

While driving, she smiled faintly. “What, telling your friends so you don’t get abducted by me?”
