Chapter 248 - 248: So You Want to Be a Third Party?
Jiang Tongtong thought about it and decided to go. Lin Gantang asked worriedly, “Aren’t you going to tell my brother? Maybe he can resolve it.”
Jiang Tongtong shook her head. “Will you accompany me tomorrow?”
Lin Gantang could not rest easy if she met the other party alone while pregnant, so she nodded in agreement.
The next day, the closer it was to the meeting time, the more anxious Jiang Tongtong was.
Before they set off, Jiang Tongtong hesitantly picked out her clothes. Lin Gantang stepped forward to help. “You don’t have to dress too formally. You might as well choose something comfortable and casual. Don’t let her think that you care about dressing up and comparing yourself to her. Who is she? Treating her as an enemy will only make her think that she is very important.”
Jiang Tongtong was feeling unsure, so she chose to listen to Lin Gantang’s opinion.
There weren’t many people in Susan’s Dessert Shop. Lin Gantang and Jiang Tongtong entered and saw a wavy-haired woman in a camel coat sitting by the window.
Lu Siyu’s looks were mature and charming. She wore a black tight-fitting dress under her coat, and her figure was voluptuous. Her fiery red lips matched with seductive eye makeup, revealing her unique mature woman temperament.
Seeing that Jiang Tongtong had someone accompanying her, Lu Siyu was slightly surprised. She stood up and stretched out her hand, saying to Jiang Tongtong, “Hello, I’m Lu Siyu.”
Jiang Tongtong glanced at her hand but didn’t shake it.
Lu Siyu didn’t feel awkward and took back her seat.
She sized up Jiang Tongtong and said bluntly, “I’m very curious about what’s so special about someone who can make Zhaonan marry. That’s why I presumptiously asked you out today.”
“It’s indeed quite presumptuous, but it doesn’t matter. I’m also curious about what kind of person you are,” Jiang Tongtong said.
Lu Siyu didn’t even ask who the person beside Jiang Tongtong was. In her eyes, Lin Gantang was just someone Jiang Tongtong had pulled in with her to boost her courage. From this, she could tell that Jiang Tongtong’s personality wasn’t tough. This way, the following conversation would be very beneficial to her.
“I’ve been working as a project director at Company R for three years. I’ve known Zhaonan for a long time. What does Miss Jiang do?” She looked at Jiang Tongtong Tong’s belly. “You can’t be a full-time housewife?”
“From your tone, you seem to look down on full-time housewives?” Although she wasn’t, Jiang Tongtong didn’t like her tone; the way she thought that she was superior to others in her work.
“I’m not going to be a full-time housewife anyway. I just think that the people who stay by Zhaonan’s side should be people who can help him in his work and life. He’s very outstanding. Only outstanding people are worthy of him,” Lu Siyu said proudly.
Before Jiang Tongtong could say anything, Lin Gantang laughed out loud when she heard her confident words.
Lu Siyu looked at her when she heard that. Lin Gantang shrugged and gestured for her to continue.
Lu Siyu didn’t take Lin Gantang to heart and continued to speak to Jiang Tongtong. “I admire Zhaonan’s talent and knowledge. He has always been a very responsible person. This time, he suddenly handed over half of his work to someone else. I don’t know if this decision is Miss Jiang’s intention, but this has really caused a lot of trouble for Zhaonan.”
“This is my husband’s decision. Miss Lu, you know very well who caused the so-called trouble you mentioned,” Jiang Tongtong retorted.
Lu Siyu disagreed. “People are destined to be attracted to outstanding members of the opposite sex around them. Miss Jiang, you won’t be angry, right? There are so many exceptional women around Zhaonan. If it wasn’t me, there would be others.”
Jiang Tong’s heart burned with anger. She wanted to argue, but Lin Gantang pressed on her hand.
So you want to be a third party?” Lin Gantang asked indifferently..
