Chapter 1759 Are you angry with me?
"Hey! What do you mean?!" Jerry shouted at their retreating backs. "You made such a big fuss, stopping us all the way down the mountain and bringing us here, just to delete the stuff on our phones?!"
The man in the lead didn't stop walking, as if he hadn't heard anything.
Although they didn't know why Jiang Cheng let them off so easily.
However, this situation was something that his subordinates were happy to see.
The main problem is that Jerry and his team aren't ordinary people; if this gets out of hand, it'll be those of us who are in charge that will suffer.
Seeing that the leader had actually left with his men, Jerry scoffed.
He turned to his teammates, his tone filled with disdain and sudden realization.
"I get it! They're scared! They're scared that we'll release the video of their crushing defeat in the race and embarrass China! They feel embarrassed, right? It's ridiculous! They went through all that trouble just for this?"
The tense atmosphere instantly dissipated.
Sally, standing to the side, let out a long sigh of relief: "I thought we were going to have to go to the consulate today, but I didn't expect them to let us off so easily."
"Let them go?" Jerry snorted coldly, feeling tricked and even more annoyed. "They wouldn't dare! Jiang Cheng? Hmph, just a rich second-generation with some money, showing off his local connections. If we were really arrested, could he handle the consequences? A paper tiger!"
The more he talked, the more convinced he became that he had guessed the truth.
He then angrily took out his phone, which had just been dealt with, and immediately dialed his father's number.
"Dad! We're out!" His tone was full of smug pride. "They didn't dare do anything to us! They just deleted the videos we filmed and let us through without even letting us in the door! I knew they couldn't mess with us!"
On the other end of the phone, his father breathed a sigh of relief, his tone returning to its arrogant self: "It's good that everyone is alright. Remember, no one can let our family suffer."
"Don't worry! I'll make that Jiang Cheng pay!" Jerry vowed frantically into the phone, as if victory was in sight.
Jerry hung up the phone, feeling that he had regained control.
The fear and confusion I felt just now were completely replaced by a distorted sense of "victory".
However, he would never have imagined that this seemingly promising but ultimately unsuccessful release would end like this.
It all stemmed from Jiang Cheng's idea of "casting a long line to catch a big fish".
At this moment, every arrogant rant he uttered and every communication he had with his father was like a vibration on a pre-laid spider web, recorded in real time and transmitted back to that encrypted channel.

Tianji: "'Fish' has been released, is emotionally stable, and we are certain that he was released out of 'fear'. The wiretapping link has been established, and we are currently collecting evidence of all his family's illegal activities in China."

Not long after the sound of water in the bathroom stopped, Jiang Churan emerged, her body steaming with the fresh scent of shower gel.
At this moment, she changed into a soft silk nightgown.
She stood in front of me with her long, beautiful legs crossed.
The lace gap peeking out from her waist showed that she had absolutely no excess fat around her waist.
Even from Jiang Cheng's experience, it was clear that Jiang Churan was not wearing a bra under her pajamas.
Her hair was half-dry and draped over her shoulders, and her cheeks were slightly flushed from the heat.
Normally, Jiang Cheng would have pulled her over for a thorough examination long ago.
Jiang Cheng was still leaning back on the single sofa, scrolling through his phone.
Even when he looked up just now, the look in his eyes that lingered on her was very calm, and Jiang Churan frowned.
Standing still, her fingers unconsciously twisting the waistband of her nightgown, caught in a dilemma.
She really didn't understand. Didn't Jiang Cheng like her a lot?
He bought the house for tens of millions without even blinking.
No, it can't be like this.
A strange courage drove her.
She bit her lower lip and then began to take steps.
He walked straight to the single sofa where Jiang Cheng was sitting.
Under Jiang Cheng's seemingly surprised gaze, she did not hesitate at all and turned to sit in his lap.
A hand gently rested on his chest, feeling the warmth and strong heartbeat emanating from beneath his shirt.
Seeing that she finally took the initiative, Jiang Cheng did not push her away.
But he didn't take any further action. He simply put down his phone and watched her calmly, as if waiting for her next move.
Jiang Churan tilted her head back, her voice soft and moist from her recent bath, her eyes filled with cautious inquiry.
"Jiang Cheng, are you... angry with me? Or... was the matter you just dealt with very troublesome, and that's making you feel bad?"
Instead of embracing her as usual, he gently brushed away a slightly damp strand of hair from her cheek with his fingertips, a gesture that carried a sense of scrutiny.
"Trouble?" Jiang Cheng chuckled lightly, his tone as casual as if he were discussing the weather. "What trouble could there be? They're just some clueless people. We'll deal with them and be done with it."
Hearing this, Jiang Churan gently leaned against him, her fingertips unconsciously twirling the buttons on his shirt.
The fresh scent of her bath lingered between them. She lowered her eyes, her voice as soft as a feather: "You haven't said anything for a while...did I keep you waiting too long?"
She shifted slightly as she spoke, the neckline of her silk nightgown inadvertently brushing against Jiang Cheng's chest.
Sensing Jiang Cheng's body stiffen, Jiang Churan quickly turned her face to the side, pretending to look at the night view outside the window.
Their figures, nestled together, were reflected in the glass of the floor-to-ceiling windows.
“I bought these pajamas last week,” she suddenly whispered, her fingers gently tugging at the hem of his shirt. “The sales assistant said this color suits my skin tone, what do you think?”
