310 I’m Yours
A man, Director Fang, walked out from the crowd and looked at the car driving away. He carefully asked He Jing, “Well, Mr. He, I’m sorry to disturb you. May I inquire whether the person who Young Master Huang assisted into the car was his father, Director Huang?”
He Jiong was taken aback and looked at him strangely. “Take a look at what you are saying. How would I know if he’s his father? You should speak with his mother.”
He Jiong planned to flee while the other party was still dazed after making a witty remark.
Surprisingly, the crowd’s gaze was focused.
Someone said, “My family has a partnership with the 16th Consortium. I’ve drunk with Director Huang several times. That’s him. I guess he’s been through a lot recently and has lost his dignity.”
The crowd’s gaze shifted to He Jiong as soon as the man said that.
“He saved him!”
“I didn’t expect Huang Baobao to be so capable!”
“How is this Huang Baobao’s deed? This man was the one who did it.”
“Shh!”
The crowd gradually quieted down.
At some point, someone had to put He Jiong’s strength to the test.
Ning Li emerged from the crowd and approached He Jiong’s side to offer his support. “I did not expect you to have such a close relationship with Teacher Wang!” he said solemnly. “I have long admired Teacher Wang and have always wanted to visit him. The academy’s gates, however, are tightly shut, and I can’t get in. I wonder if you can introduce me.”
His eloquence was exceptional. He could attack or retreat with a single sentence. The ball was in He Jiong’s court.
However, He Jiong said, “I would like to introduce you to him, but my boss said I’ve used up my chances. If I continue to plead for someone, he won’t help me again. Now, I don’t know what to do. Why don’t you leave your contact information, and I’ll ask him about it later to see if a recommendation and pleading are two different things?”
Ning Li was stunned.
What kind of answer was that?
Did he agree to it or not?
It seemed like nothing could be done.
He took the initiative to leave his contact information.
It then depended on the other party’s effort.
Ning Li was a little sad.
He felt that his attack did not work.
It was probably broken.
On the other hand, He Jiong was still dealing the finishing blow. He was holding his phone and opening his address book. “Brother Ning? Are you adding me, or am I adding you?”
Ning Li pursed his lips and hesitated.
He waited for a while and finally understood the situation.
He Jiong did not get angry. Instead, he chuckled, put away his phone, and turned to leave.
Ning Li was in a dilemma—his heart was filled with worry and melancholy.
However, at that moment…
Another person suddenly said, “In fact, from my angle, I could see that Director Huang knelt in front of him in the Tiansheng Group building. Young Master Huang was about to kneel too, but he was stopped. This man was helping the two of them out the door.”
The crowd gasped.
Director Fang looked around and suddenly ran after He Jiong. He caught up with He Jiong in a few steps, took out his business card, and stuffed it into He Jiong’s hands.
He nodded and bowed, his face full of smiles, and he was extremely enthusiastic.
He had found a leader.
The rest of the people also rushed forward.
They formed a circle and forced their way in. They were desperately trying to get to know He Jiong and exchange contact information with him.
He Jiong was extremely busy.
“No, no, no! I already said my boss doesn’t want me to plead for anyone. There’s no point in holding onto me!”
The crowd had already confirmed the other party’s identity, and they only wanted to make friends with him, so they did not care if he could plead for mercy.
The academy and the Boai Group were the two dominant forces.
Someone stood behind those two groups.
It meant that the world was in his hands.
Who was that?
He was the Emperor!
Since that person was the Emperor…
Then the person in front of him was equivalent to the Emperor’s most trusted aide!
If they could be on good terms with that person, they would get many benefits in the future!
When they thought of that…
Everyone was going crazy.
Three beautiful women stood closest to He Jiong. They were desperate; no matter how the men pushed, they did not move an inch.
One of them whispered into He Jiong’s ear, “I didn’t eat anything at the banquet just now. How about we go for some supper? Just you and me.”
He Jiong’s ear itched, and he shrank his head back, wanting to say something.
Another beautiful woman, who was holding his arm firmly, seized the opportunity to speak. “Brother He Jiong, I’ve actually been following you for a long time! There are so many people here; should we find a quiet place to chat and add each other as friends to get to know each other better?”
He Jiong looked at his arm, and all he could see was that pale arm holding him.
He felt a little thirsty.
He wanted some water.
He felt a soft body pressing against him from behind. Another woman wrapped her arms around his waist and exhaled gently behind his head. “Ignore those sluts. I am a simple woman. If you can get me to Chen Hansheng, Li He, or any of them, I am yours!”
“Who are you calling a slut?” The two women were furious. “You’re the slut! B*tch!”
He Jiong turned to look behind him.
An attractive face and delicate features came into view.
He swallowed his saliva and said, “It’s not that I don’t want to help you, but I’m not familiar with the three of them. Do you think Team Leader Mo Ran can do it? I can try it with him.”
“Mo Ran?” The eyes of the beautiful woman behind him lit up. “You mean Gu Jianbing’s number one general? Mo Ran, Team Leader Mo, Little Teacher Wang’s best friend?”
“Uh… You seem to know more about him than I do.” A question mark flashed across He Jiong’s face.
“If you’re talking about that Mo Ran, then yes, of course!” The woman nodded affirmatively.
The two of them were very close to each other in that position. Once the woman nodded, her face pressed directly against He Jiong’s mouth.
Even though they separated after a brief contact…
He Jiong felt the soft touch of her skin; she did not have much foundation on it.
Without waiting for him to reminisce…
The person behind him stuck close to his back and said gently, “As long as you can get him to meet me, I’m yours.”
Of course, the two other women disagreed.
They also hugged the man’s arms tightly and announced that they were his too.
He Jiong felt a little out of breath for a moment as a fragrant breeze surrounded him.
Fortunately, there was still empty space in front of him, and several men of various ages attempted to exchange phone numbers with him.
When the woman noticed he was busy, she helped him save her number, filling in her name in the A section.
The crowd moved with He Jiong.
Outside the encirclement…
Ning Li was astounded as he looked at the crowd of people that resembled ants in biscuit crumbs.
He was filled with regret.
He had been the first one!
He had already started a conversation with He Jiong before anyone could react! He had squandered such a valuable opportunity because he had hesitated momentarily!
He wanted to squeeze in again.
Unless he used the power of the World Tower’s 400th floor to kill his way out.
He would not be able to move an inch otherwise.
Ning Li turned around to see that his female companion had vanished without his knowledge.
His gaze was drawn to the tightly closed door of the Tiansheng Group’s headquarters.
He recalled the numerous times he had visited this location, and even though he had entered the place before, he had never been able to see the person he wished to see.
He thought about the Ninth Consortium, which was in a state of panic and could not even apply for supplies.
He gritted his teeth.
He stomped his foot.
He raised his phone high and plunged into the crowd, shouting, “Brother He! Brother He, look here! I’m your little ninja!”
