12: Chapter 12 Living off Appearance 12: Chapter 12 Living off Appearance Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio “Hey?

You’re here, Cainan?

I thought the typhoon would delay your flight.”

Jiang Li spoke and glanced past Zhuang Cai Nan, noticing Su Lu standing at the door with a slightly awkward expression, “Miss Su is here too…”

Su Lu was in a dilemma, neither able to enter nor retreat, and could only nod gently while standing at the door.

“I’m here to check on Mr.

Bo’s injury and thank him.

If it’s inconvenient…”

“Yes, it’s inconvenient.

Please leave.” Zhuang Cai Nan, though looking tired, refused decisively, taking over unhesitatingly.

Even though she had just arrived, she already knew the reason behind Jingshen’s injury.

“Let her in.” A deep male voice came from inside the ward.

Zhuang Cai Nan frowned and looked sideways, “Jingshen!”

“Alright.

I’ve arranged a room for you at Wanli International in the High-tech District.

You just arrived, so take a rest first.

Handle matters for the exhibition with that temporary assistant, Xiao Qiu.

I’m fine here.”

Bo Jingshen’s voice was indifferent and calm, arranging a room far from the city center but close to the exhibition center for Zhuang Cai Nan.

“Additionally…” Bo Jingshen paused, “The car was damaged.

Take care of the follow-up compensation matters.”

Su Lu, outside the door, felt a shock.

Was he really hit by a tree in his car during the typhoon?

He looked at Jiang Li, “Let her in.”

Jiang Li: “Uh…”

Jiang Li winked at Su Lu and gestured, “Miss Su, please come in?”

Zhuang Cai Nan’s stare was unrelenting, with no warmth at all.

Although quite awkward, concern outweighed the awkwardness.
