Chapter 61: I’ll Explain It to You

Guan Sandao received a call from Jiang Tong yesterday. He was so scared that his heart almost jumped out of his chest. He immediately thought that Jiang Tong’s might have gotten his number from Zhou Mingfei. Otherwise, how would Jiang Tong know his phone number? The thing that he was terrified of was that Jiang Tong would have told Zhou Mingfei that he had sent people to follow her. The whole Z City knew that Zhou Mingfei was protecting Zhou Jingyun. The people in the underworld especially knew the fact that no matter who you provoke, never provoke Zhou Jingyun. That would be even more terrifying than provoking Zhou Mingfei! If you provoked Zhou Mingfei, with Zhou Mingfei’s personality, he could still give you a chance to explain. However, if you provoked Zhou Jingyun, you might not even have the right to speak.

Yesterday, although Guan Sandao had sent people to follow Jiang Tong, but since Jiang Tong had never been separated from Zhou Jingyun the entire time, it could be considered as following Zhou Jingyun. If Zhou Mingfei found out about this… Guan Sandao broke out in cold sweat just thinking about it. Zhou Mingfei had promoted him, so he knew Zhou Mingfei’s methods too well. Guan Sandao was afraid that he would not be able to explain clearly, and… even Zhou Mingfei might not even give him the chance to explain.

Last night, Guan Sandao tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. He had picked up his phone many times, wanting to call Jiang Tong to explain, and also probe to find out if Jiang Tong had told Zhou Mingfei about the matter. However, in the end, he did not make the call. When Jiang Tong hung up the phone, she said she wanted to sleep. If he called Jiang Tong again, it would definitely upset Jiang Tong. By then, the matter which previously might not be a big deal would become a big problem because of this phone call.

Guan Sandao did not sleep for the entire night. He left the house at dawn. When he arrived at Jiang Tong’s house, he did not go upstairs to disturb her. He just waited downstairs for Jiang Tong.

Jiang Tong looked Guan Sandao up and down. He shrank his shoulders, and his fierce face had a subservient and flattering smile. Because he hadn’t slept the whole night, he looked a lot more dispirited and even had dark circles under his eyes.

“Miss Jiang, I actually came here to explain to you what happened yesterday. I didn’t…” Guan Sandao said carefully.

Jiang Tong waved her hand to indicate that Guan Sandao didn’t need to say anything. She turned her head to look at the alley. “Have you had breakfast? There’s a good breakfast place inside.” As she said that, she walked into the alley, and Guan Sandao immediately caught up with her.

“I haven’t told Zhou Mingfei yet. Relax a little.” Jiang Tong glanced at Guan Sandao and casually spoke to him. She knew what Guan Sandao was thinking and what he was afraid of. Sure enough, after hearing Jiang Tong’s words, Guan Sandao instantly relaxed, as if he was relieved of a heavy burden.

“Did you come alone?” Jiang Tong asked casually.

“The others are outside on the street. I didn’t let them come. It’s early in the morning. It’s not good for the neighbors to see too many people,” Guan Sandao said.

Jiang Tong smiled. Guan Sandao was really good at doing things. She had always lived here. If Guan Sandao came with so many people, the neighbors would be furiously gossiping away.

Jiang Tong and Guan Sandao walked into the alley. There were convenience stores and fast food restaurants in the alley. Jiang Tong brought Guan Sandao into a breakfast restaurant. It was a small and dirty restaurant. The breakfast was just simple soy milk and deep-fried dough sticks. As it was already after seven o’clock in the morning, the peak hour to get breakfast at this place had already passed. Currently, there was only one table occupied by the customers in the breakfast restaurant.

Jiang Tong casually ordered and then sat down with Guan Sandao near the entrance. Guan Sandao looked around when he sat down and observed the environment of the restaurant. He had not eaten in such a small restaurant for many years. Ever since he started working, he had been going to high-end places and eating in a very particular way. Rich people were particular about their food. Therefore, he did not expect Jiang Tong to come to such a place to eat. He felt that Jiang Tong was too low-key!

The steamed buns and fried dough sticks were ready-made. The breakfast staff quickly served them up.

“What do you want from me?” Jiang Tong picked up the fried dough sticks and took a bite.

“Miss Jiang, I want to explain to you. You must have misunderstood. I have no malice toward you. I…” Guan Sandao began to explain. Of course, he wouldn’t reveal his true thoughts. He could not tell Jiang Tong that he was following her to get close to her, right? He could only find other reasons, and the reason he found was to protect Jiang Tong!

Perhaps Guan Sandao could not think of any normal reason, so he found such an awkward reason that did not even count as a reason. Of course, it did not matter how he explained it. The most important thing was Jiang Tong’s reaction and Jiang Tong’s attitude.
