Chapter 1173: Chapter 1175
Zhao Guangran stormed in angrily, "Oh, so you guys were hiding in here."
"It’s really infuriating."
Zhao Guangran was sweating all over, and on top of that, he was in a foul mood, especially after encountering a certain someone, which made him feel even worse.
Having gone through so much trouble to find them, he finally sees them lounging in the air conditioning, eating ice cream, and bragging, which only worsened his mood.
"I want an ice-cold cola."
"I want to eat ice cream."
"And I’m hungry, I want to eat pizza."
"What’s wrong with you." Gong Ruini looked at Zhao Guangran, who was fuming with rage, and was genuinely startled.
No way did he search for them for a long time, especially considering how big the sun was outside, Gong Ruini started feeling guilty.
Yet, looking again at his dark skin, Gong Ruini suddenly felt it was no big deal, after all, his skin was already very dark, a little more wouldn’t matter.
Besides, here in the United States, they admire healthy beauty, having dark skin is actually a good thing.
"You guys came here without telling me." He took a gulp of the drink offered by Gong Ruzhi, and after a few satisfying sips, he finally felt alive again.
"You have no idea how anxious I was." If he hadn’t been looking for someone, he wouldn’t have encountered that scum.
Being anxious was normal, but how could they notify him, did he think they were Superheroes or something.
Gong Ruini snapped, "Sorry, we can’t fly, there’s no way to fly to you and tell you that we need to find a place to drink and rest."
"We were down below admiring your brave posture on the roller coaster several times."
"And listening to your high-pitched tenor." Dai Liren couldn’t help but tease.
"You’re in an unusually high spirit." Gong Jiaxin didn’t understand why he was so upset when he had clearly vented before, what’s going on here now.
High spirits? Humph, at least they were worried about him, which lifted Zhao Guangran’s spirits a lot, otherwise he would have gone berserk.
"I saw him, he actually came back here too."
"To think he never had any interest in Disney, and yet he acted like nothing happened and greeted me."
"I couldn’t tell you how long I’ve been holding it in, otherwise I would have punched him."
The thought of the other person enthusiastically greeting him and asking how he was recently made Zhao Guangran angrier the more he thought about it.
He pounded the table with his fist, "I’m so pissed!"
No way, was he this angry, previously she would have reminded Zhao Guangran to be mindful of the public setting, but seeing the table shake several times, Gong Ruini couldn’t help but shiver.
She knew that Zhao Guangran was practicing martial arts and certainly had some combat power, but she didn’t expect his combat power to be this strong.
Click click click, "Lucky you didn’t make a move." It’s a table, he must have restrained himself a bit, if he had made a move directly on the other person, the force would have been much stronger.
"Of course, I wouldn’t make a move, humph, I’m not foolish enough to use the money I earned to compensate him." Zhao Guangran lifted his head proudly.
"He’s trying to provoke me, trying to make me make a move, but I absolutely refuse, I’ll make him suffer even more." Although Zhao Guangran didn’t know what kind of benefit his former friend would gain from selling him out.
But just the fact that it was handled personally told him he wasn’t valued by the other party, tracking people doesn’t really require much skill.
Gong Ruini thought that the other party really was following them to Los Angeles, considering that when Dai Liren had mentioned this, no one believed it was true.
Just thinking that no one would really be this idle, Zhao Guangran had seemed somewhat formidable before, but not so much that people would focus on him all the time.
"Why are they targeting you." Gong Ruini asked puzzledly.
Zhao Guangran didn’t know, "I’m not that great at stock trading, right, and I’m pretty low-key at school."
"Moreover, there are countless finance people playing stocks and futures, there are plenty who perform better than me." Zhao Guangran used to brag about his prowess endlessly.
That was because Gong Ruini and the others were in China, he would appropriately exaggerate his abilities, but in reality, he couldn’t even rank in the top three.
"Maybe they dislike you because you’re from the mainland?" Gong Ruini shifted angles, at this moment she wondered why Zhao Guangran would be targeted.
Could it be because of that ointment? Ever since that ointment emerged, with its excellent effects, even though it’s sold only domestically, some vested interests are paying attention.
For example, foreign business people expressed their wish to come and observe, not just a casual visit, but a full tour of the production and configuration processes.
When Zhao Xuran mentioned this, Gong Ruini was dumbfounded, knowing that previously many secrets were leaked just through such visits.
For example, accidentally getting some substance stained with the original solution, etc., although Gong Ruini hadn’t experienced this personally, she’d heard quite a bit.
After Zhao Xu and others politely declined the visit requests, even though the relevant departments were very unhappy, since the ointment factory was a private company, even if the leadership was unhappy, they couldn’t enforce mandatory demands.
Could it be that they, seeing this path unworkable, are trying to get to Zhao Guangran?
This time, Zhao Guangran avoided it, but what about next time? Gong Ruini was genuinely worried.
Is Dai Liren really working with them just to make money?
The more Gong Ruini thought about it, the more she felt there was something wrong, something about Dai Liren’s presence didn’t feel right.
She looked at Dai Liren with a scrutinizing gaze.
Zhao Guangran was still angry, but when he noticed Gong Ruini’s gaze towards Dai Liren, he couldn’t stay angry.
Being angry with someone like that had no benefits apart from ruining one’s own mood, what if Gong Ruini ended up being taken by Dai Liren.
He would really end up getting chopped by his big brother, no, he needed to talk to Ni Zi about this, she had family background and couldn’t be easily fooled.
Dai Liren wasn’t as good-looking as his brother, nor as capable, more importantly, this guy couldn’t step out of his brother’s shadow, showing he wasn’t strong enough mentally.
"Alright, let’s go back after we’ve eaten." After going back, he needed to talk to Ni Zi about this, and then talk to Dai Liren.
As a cultured and well-placed man, he wouldn’t do such a foolish thing.
But if he insisted on doing it, then he really wouldn’t mind teaching this kid a lesson so he could see why the roses were so red.
Uh, leaving so soon? Gong Ruini looked outside at the sky, it’s quite wasteful leaving at this time given the tickets.
"I’m not in a good mood, and you guys aren’t coming with me?" No, they had to go back, even if Gong Ruini had previously shown no interest in staying to play, why didn’t she want to go back now.
There was definitely something fishy here, as she realized there was a problem, it must be resolved.
