Jiang Jing didn't listen to what the person said later and hung up the phone. She didn't know why Fu Jinrong was secretly investigating Su Muzhi. Nor did she want to know.

Jiang Jing just felt very uncomfortable in her heart. She felt that if Fu Jinrong really wanted to know anything about Su Muzhi, he could ask her directly. There was no need to investigate him privately.

At this time, Fu Jinrong did not go to the kitchen to find out when the red date and lotus seed soup would be done. Instead, he was smoking, walking back and forth in the corridor of the private room.

He thought that his words and actions should have made Jiang Jing feel his feelings for her, but Jiang Jing's words at the dinner table made him question again whether he should keep doing this.

Jiang Jing was looking forward to Jiang Ru's return, which was completely different from what Fu Jinrong thought. He felt that Jiang Jing should at least have a little bit of reluctance to leave him. As long as there was a little bit of it, Fu Jinrong felt that all the hard work he had spent these days was worth it.

However, Fu Jinrong did not see a trace of it in Jiang Jing's words, and from her expression, he did see that she wanted Jiang Ru to come back safely.

Fu Jinrong couldn't calm down for a long time. He smoked half a pack of cigarettes in the corridor alone. It was not until the waiter used a cart to serve the red date and lotus seed soup over that he extinguished the last cigarette.

"Give it to me." Fu Jinrong stopped the waiter and personally held the red date and lotus seed soup from the cart.

He pushed open the door of the private room and saw Jiang Jing standing by the window, looking out at the unique aerial garden.

"Stop looking and eat before it turns cold." Fu Jinrong placed the soup in front of Jiang Jing's seat and calmly returned to his seat.

When Jiang Jing heard the opening of the door, she turned around and sat back in her seat. She looked at the red date and lotus seed soup that Fu Jinrong had placed in front of her. The soup was clear and had many stoned red dates which was surrounded by white lotus seeds. The soup looked delicious.

Jiang Jing picked up the spoon with her delicate white fingers and tasted a red date. As expected, the date was very sweet, but she could not feel a trace of sweetness in her heart.

Fu Jinrong sat in his seat and did not speak. He just looked at Jiang Jing quietly. In the corner of his eye, he found that the notification light on his phone which had been on the table all the time was shining green. It seemed that someone had sent him a message.

Fu Jinrong frowned and picked up his phone. After unlocking it skillfully, he found an unread email: Su Muzhi's information.

He subconsciously looked at Jiang Jing, who was drinking lotus seed soup. His phone was on the table, and he didn't know if Jiang Jing saw the message.

"Maybe not." Fu Jinrong thought in his heart, because with his knowledge of Jiang Jing, if she really knew about his private investigation of Su Muzhi, she would be furious and argue with him. She would not drink the soup quietly.

Fu Jinrong nodded secretly, opened the email, and prepared to read carefully Su Muzhi's information. At this moment, Jiang Jing suddenly stood up and said, "I'm full. Let's go."

Fu Jinrong looked at the soup of which she had only took a small sip. He was puzzled and said, "You drank so little of it. We are not in a hurry. Drink some more. This is..."

Before he could say "good for your body," Jiang Jing said, "I don't like it. I hate it. I want to leave now, OK?"

There was no smile on Jiang Jing's face. Fu Jinrong was confused why she who had been fine just now suddenly changed. He became a little angry. Recalling what Jiang Jing said about Jiang Ru just now, Fu Jinrong didn't want to say anything more. He pushed the chair under him away and stood up.

Fu Jinrong did not speak. He only looked at Jiang Jing for three seconds before leaving the room resolutely.

Bang! The door of the room was slammed shut by Fu Jinrong.

When Jiang Jing walked out of the restaurant, Manager Fan walked over immediately.

"Mrs. Fu, boss Fu just said that he had something to do and left and told me to take you home safely." Manager Fan smiled and said to Jiang Jing.

Manager Fan might never forget the look in Fu Jinrong's eyes when he said this to him. It was as cold and hard as an ice knife. Someone would think that manager Fan had angered Fu Jinrong. How dare manager Fan not send Jiang Jing home safely?

So he waited at the entrance of the restaurant in advance for fear of missing Mrs. Fu.

Jiang Jing heard manager Fan's words and waved her hand, "Thank you, but I can go back myself."

"Mrs. Fu, please no. I've already agreed boss Fu to send you back. If you don't agree, I would have a hard time." Manager Fan said pitifully.

Jiang Jing knew why Fu Jinrong insisted on asking Manager Fan to send her back personally. He was afraid that she would not go back to his home and wander around alone.

"Okay, but you can arrange a car. Your restaurant is busy too. You don't have to drive yourself." In fact, Fu Jinrong was thinking too much. How could she have the energy to wander around at this time? Even if he hadn't ordered Fan, she would go back as he wanted.

As soon as he heard these words, manager Fan felt that lady Jiang was really considerate. Not only did she not make things difficult for him, but she was thoughtful of others. Their restaurant was more than busy.

Although the "Terrace and Waterside Pavilion" had already implemented the membership system, and the threshold of the membership was getting higher and higher during this period of time, it still could not suppress the desire of all kinds of celebrities in the city to come here to eat.

Sometimes people had this mentality. Even if he felt that the food of a restaurant was average, but when other famous people came to eat, he would follow suit, as if eating at the same place with celebrities would make him one of them.

"OK. I won't bother you. The car I arranged for you is here. Do you think it's okay?" Manager Fan was worried that lady Jiang would have the habit of not sitting in a car of some brand, so he did his best to arrange the best car.

Jiang Jing looked at the limousine in front of her and was awkward. She frowned, than pointed at the limousine and said to manager Fan, "That's too much."

Manager Fan shook his head, "No, it's not. I just hope you don't dislike it."

Jiang Jing knew in her heart that manager Fan was so respectful to her because of Fu Jinrong, and that she should not make things difficult for others, but she really did not want to go back in such a car.
