Super Island Tycoon

Chapter 1200: Chapter 1199: A Man of Impeccable Appearance

I wasn’t thinking anything, really. "Qi Rongfeng said with an ’I understand’ expression as he walked over to Zhao Shuai.

Only then did Jiang Cheng see that nearly ten people were walking behind Qi Rongfeng, including some women. They were wearing clothes similar to Qi Rongfeng’s, resembling some kind of uniform.

Stop it, really, wearing your Qi Family uniform today, you look quite presentable, not bad at all." Zhao Shuai said as he reached out to tug on Qi Rongfeng’s clothes.

Enough, nonsense. I’m going to sit at the back now.

Qi Rongfeng glanced at Zhao Shuai with disdain.

Rongfeng is the son of the current patriarch of the Qi Family. Known for his remarkable talent since he was young, he’s considered the hope of the Qi Family. I heard about him when I was in university, though he was rumored to be cold-hearted at the time. "Zhao Shuai said as he looked at Qi Rongfeng’s figure.

I didn’t expect you two to get along, let alone become good friends.

Jiang Cheng said. In his view, Qi Rongfeng was very composed while Zhao Shuai was quite "lively," making their friendship unexpected.

"Hey, after getting to know him, I realized those were just rumors. Rongfeng is actually very kind, but his early fame and the pressure of being the family’s hope are quite substantial." Zhao Shuai said regretfully, furrowing his brows.

At that moment, Jiang Cheng noticed someone familiar entering through the door. After taking a closer look, he realized it was Li Pu. Today, Li Pu was dressed very formally, in a suit and tie, with his posture upright, followed by someone holding a camera. It seemed he was here as a reporter today, Jiang Cheng thought.

Suddenly, Li Pu seemed to sense someone looking at him and glanced at the second floor. When he saw Jiang Cheng, his expression didn’t change but he did smile at Jiang Cheng, which Jiang Cheng found unsettling. But why was Li Pu here today? If he was merely here as a reporter, Jiang Cheng didn’t quite believe it. Hopefully, he won’t cause any trouble.

Zhao Shuai followed Jiang Cheng’s gaze and also saw Li Pu. "Lin, isn’t that the guy we met in the Dark Cosmos that day, who was that person exactly," Zhao Shuai said, frowning as he couldn’t recall the name.

"Li Pu, the reporter." Jiang Cheng said.

Oh, yes, my goodness, why is he here too? Seeing him always brings back shadows, reminds me of that eerie old lady." Zhao Shuai closed his eyes and made a scared face.

I wonder what his purpose is today. "Jiang Cheng thought Li Pu might very well be here to cause havoc. He felt the need to keep an eye on Li Pu to prevent him from doing anything bad.

Zhao Shuai, are there security guards here today? Ask a few to watch Li Pu for any abnormal behavior and report it to you immediately." Jiang Cheng said to Zhao Shuai. Right, we should keep an eye on him. What he said that day showed he definitely knows about that old lady’s matter; he’s surely not a good person." Zhao Shuai didn’t know about the chase by Li Pu after Jiang Cheng that day, otherwise he would have jumped up now for sure.

Jiang Cheng then saw Wu Shi enter as well, dressed very formally today in a black suit, with her long hair tied up high. Zhao Shuai also saw Wu enter and shouted loudly, "Wu!

Jiang Cheng was a bit helpless towards Zhao Shuai’s personality, even in a setting like this, he could shout and yell,

Wu Shi also saw Zhao Shuai and Jiang Cheng on the second floor and nodded and smiled at them before finding a seat.

Jiang Cheng had always been curious about Wu Shan. She always appeared alone, and her previous appearance was quite strange. Yesterday, after they finished dining, she wouldn’t let Zhao Shuai escort her home. Jiang Cheng remained completely puzzled as to what Wu Fen really was.

"Ah, to be honest, Lin, although Wu Shan denied being my university classmate yesterday, whenever I see her, it’s like seeing my high school’s department beauty. I won’t be embarrassed to admit, I had a crush on her back then. So whenever I see Wu Shan, my heart races." Zhao Shuai said, covering his heart with a face filled with admiration.

Jiang Cheng looked at Zhao Shuai’s expression and shook his head without saying anything.

Jiang Cheng checked the time; there were twenty minutes left before the seminar began. He felt like visiting the restroom, told Zhao Shuai, and then left, only to encounter Li Pu at the restroom door.

"Mr. Lin, long time no see, still remember me?" Li Pu said with a smile.

"Of course, I remember, Reporter Li." Jiang Cheng looked at Li Pu.

Mr. Lin, do you know why this year’s seminar invited many renowned scientists and members of the Four Great Families?" Li Pu asked. Jiang Cheng didn’t understand why he suddenly asked this question. "No idea, does it have anything to do with Yingfei?" he asked.

Mr. Lin is very clever. Many scientists and family heads are aware of Li Country’s existence, but they don’t know how to handle it or rather," Li Pu suddenly leaned closer to Jiang Cheng’s ear, "they fear Li Country, but so what?" Jiang Cheng found Li Pu’s mysteriousness very annoying.

So what? Mr. Lin should rethink going to Li Country; after all, going to technologically advanced places is every scientist’s dream. Mr. Lin, don’t restrain yourself." Li Pu patted Jiang Cheng’s shoulder and left.

Jiang Cheng certainly knew he came to Kai Ao Star to discover new civilizations and learn or even surpass them. Going to technologically advanced places was certainly beneficial, but Li Country’s intentions were clearly not pure. If it leads to war, countless innocent civilians would suffer the consequences, something Jiang Cheng would never want to see. However, he still wasn’t sure how to handle Li Country’s matter, leaving him with a bit of a headache.

Upon returning to Zhao Shuai, Jiang Cheng saw him laughingly talking with a middle-aged man. Jiang Cheng walked over and saw this middle-aged man bore some resemblance to Zhao Shuai, dressed sharply and composed, exuding an authoritative aura without saying a word. Jiang Cheng guessed this might be Zhao Shuai’s boss, his father.

When Zhao Shuai saw Jiang Cheng approaching, he pulled Jiang Cheng towards the middle-aged man, saying, "Dad, this is my friend I mentioned earlier, a young and remarkable scientist, Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng noticed the middle-aged man analyzing him; hearing Zhao Shuai’s introduction, he laughed and extended his hand, "So you’re the Jiang Cheng my son has been talking about these days; indeed, a fine young man, haha.

Not at all, hello, Boss." Jiang Cheng looked at the smiling boss, feeling very warm, looking much younger, even feeling a bit of affection.

"Calling me Boss sounds distant. Since you’re Shuai’s friend, uncle will suffice. Here, sit." The boss warmly gestured for Jiang Cheng to sit down.

My dad’s like that; you wouldn’t know he’s the boss, no airs about him, and he really appreciates scientists." Zhao Shuai whispered to Jiang Cheng, who appeared awkwardly uncomfortable.

Mr. Lin, you worked at Lang before, right? I hadn’t heard of you until now." The boss asked Jiang Cheng.

Just call me Lin," Jiang Cheng said, rubbing his hands together, "I’ve been conducting research in the desert for many years, so many things here feel unfamiliar to me now." Jiang Cheng stuck to the explanation of working in the desert, as there are indeed many deserts in Kai Ao Country, minimizing the chance of arousing suspicion.
