After Switching Bodies, the Mad Overbearing CEO Takes Over the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 141: Chapter 141 Fortunately, Not Very Annoying

“How am I supposed to choose?” He threw a counter-question to Qu Rong.

Qu Rong gave an awkward light cough, “What you’re saying is too broad; how would I know which item… How about I help you look for it? All of a sudden, why think about finding a needle in a haystack…”

It really was like finding a needle in a haystack. Qin Jiangsheng felt a headache just looking at the workload, but he resigned himself to searching.

Qu Rong directly sat on the floor, “Young Master Qin, Ninth Young Master asked you to take a trip to Area A3 when you have time.”

“What for?”

“Because you can appraise antiques, it should be about the ‘Inheritance Order’, right? Also, there’s the list of people attending the auction to take a special look at. I heard that Yin Man, the founder of the global top High Martial Alliance of Cloud Sea, is coming as well.”

“Cloud Sea?” Qin Jiangsheng pondered briefly, “Didn’t she retire twenty years ago?”

Qu Rong shrugged, “Who knows. That’s the rumor anyway. To have such a big shot come over for this little thing is really something. Just watch the show, I think it’s unlikely; there’s always such rumors whenever there’s a major auction. Have you ever seen Yin Man show up? I suspect she’s dead. She must be pretty old, right?”

To them, Yin Man was like a deity, with off-the-charts combat power, never revealing her true identity, and having single-handedly founded the Yunzhihai Alliance. With her retirement, the alliance gradually faded from view. In the old days of gods battling, she was an iconic figure.

Qin Jiangsheng earnestly sorted through clothes and finally, upon seeing one piece, felt it looked familiar—a blue-embroidered little bear. He frantically recalled in his mind and thought this must be the one.

“Get rid of all these extras.”

He held the clothes up against himself, hmm, quite the right fit. Ji Tian should finally be satisfied.

Qu Rong: “…Did you even listen to a word I said?”

“Huh? What?” Confusion appeared in Qin Jiangsheng’s eyes.

Qu Rong choked; so he’d talked all this time for nothing, and his words fell on deaf ears?

“Forget it, just remember to find Ninth Young Master.”

He resigned himself to tidying up the room for Qin Jiangsheng. Looking down at the clothes, Qin Jiangsheng found them quite cute, a very clean white. His fingers tightened their grip, then he slowly began, “Qu Rong…”

“Huh? What’s up?”

“What kind of life is worthy of the words ‘good person’?”

Qu Rong was stunned for a moment but couldn’t help grinning, “Ha ha, whatever it is, it’s not related to the business we’re in. Young Master Qin, all we do is illegal stuff; if we get caught, it’s straight to jail. Of course, if you leave the organization, who knows if you’re a good guy or a bad one.”

Indeed, what he’d done could never stand the light of day.

Money laundering, arms trafficking, antiquities, walking on the razor’s edge.

Having joined the organization for two years, he had done many things for Mo Jiu.

Qin Jiangsheng could not help but mock his own sentimentality inside, yet on the other hand, there was Ji Tian, calling him a ‘little angel’ so innocently clean.

In the end, he spoke up, “Can I really get out whole? Qu Rong.”

Qu Rong then realized that something was wrong with Qin Jiangsheng’s state, seeing him gazing at the clothing as if looking at a treasured possession. Qu Rong’s lips quivered, struggling to speak, “Are you serious? Are you thinking… about leaving the organization?”

Qin Jiangsheng sat on the bed, the world outside was dark, no light in sight. His heartbeat gradually quickened, and only after a moment did he seriously and solemnly reply, “Yes, because, she likes that.”

“No, who exactly is she? Did she encourage you to make this decision? Isn’t this asking for your life? Do you think Ninth Young Master would let you go? I really am…” Qu Rong, lost for words, paced back and forth across the room with his hands on his hips, wanting to scold Qin Jiangsheng, but seeing his earnest appearance, he swallowed his words.

Who doesn’t want to lead a clean life, who wants to do these dangerous deeds? Once on this path, whether they live or die isn’t up to them, Qu Rong had never thought he’d live to a ripe old age; he just wanted to save as much money as possible before anything happened.

Not sure what came to mind, he turned his back and blinked away moist eyes, “You really are… always giving me tough problems, Young Master Qin…”

“Do you really want to leave?”

Qin Jiangsheng’s silent demeanor had already given the answer—he didn’t want to be a part of this business anymore. While he still could walk away, he wanted nothing more to do with it.

Qu Rong chuckled lightly, “Okay then, I’ll help you. You’re still young and sharp-witted; why choose the path of crime? It’s good to live a clean life. I might not be able to escape it myself. Young Master Qin, if you really do get out, do a brother a favor, will you?”

“What?” Qin Jiangsheng tilted his head in confusion.

“Bring a bouquet of flowers to a girl for me.”

…

The next day, the sky drizzled with rain, and the temperature in Capital City dropped overnight again.

Ji Tian shivered as she put on her thin knitted cardigan.

However, at school, she saw a cool figure.

The youth wore a short-sleeved shirt, black trousers, and carried a backpack over one shoulder. His somewhat lengthy black hair was cut short, revealing his delicate eyebrows and eyes, bright and with a youthful naivety.

He was nothing like the gloomy, silent person he used to be. It was as if he had become someone entirely different.

And because of the drastic change, he once again drew the gazes of female students as they passed by.

The old Qin Jiangsheng was handsome too, but he looked even better now.

And furthermore…

Ji Tian took a look at the clothes on his body and saw, wasn’t that the bear patterned short-sleeve shirt she had gifted him?!

She held an umbrella in her hand and hurriedly ran over to him. From the corner of his eye, Qin Jiangsheng saw Ji Tian approaching as if he had just arrived at the school and headed straight inside.

“Qin Jiangsheng, wait for me.”

Hearing her voice, he stopped cold in his tracks to wait for her.

Ji Tian panted, “Why, why did you put on short sleeves? Didn’t you say you wouldn’t wear them because it’s cold?”

Qin Jiangsheng looked at the light rain falling from the sky, his tone indifferent, “Cold? I’m about to die of heat.”

With that, he tugged at the collar of his shirt as if to fan himself a couple of times.

Ji Tian: “…”

Hot?

After a moment, she looked at him again with a grin, “I thought you didn’t wear it because you didn’t like it. I was even considering buying you a new one.”

“Oh, that’s good, I don’t dislike it that much,” Qin Jiangsheng said and then, noticing Ji Tian’s intense gaze fixed on him, suddenly felt his face grow inexplicably hot.

He frowned and walked ahead, “So hot…”

Ji Tian giggled to herself from behind; saying he liked it was that hard? It’s just not too repulsive to him.

Of course, she dared not tease him, worried she would annoy him. She followed him and held the umbrella over him, “It’s raining, come inside and take shelter.”

In the end, the umbrella ended up in Qin Jiangsheng’s hands. He disdainfully thought Ji Tian was too short, as the umbrella would catch his hair, so he tilted the edge of the umbrella towards her side.

This scene was witnessed by a few people not too far away.

Feng Juanjuan bit her lip in irritation and turned to Gong Dongxi, whose expression was equally displeased. Casting a sidelong glance, she asked, “Xixi, are we still going to deal with Ji Tian?”

Gong Dongxi frowned, diverted her gaze from Ji Tian, and rolled her eyes, “Why bother with her? Even though I hate her, she poses no threat to me. Right now, all I want to do is tear that bitch Shen Zhiyi’s face apart!”
