"Hey, hey, I know that we\'ve been out of topic. But you haven\'t answered your Jie\'s question. Who is this Yang-Ge you\'re talking about? And do I also know him?" Jinxing stopped again. He looked at me with pity in his eyes, as if he was asking me to spare him. Which made me even more suspicious.

How could the CEO of Rent A Boyfriend, the Young Master of Jiang family, and also the CEO of Jiang Group actually showed a pitiful look when questioned about the identity of this man called Yang-Ge? As if he was actually scared of this man.

It planted even more suspicion in me. I mean, I wasn\'t stupid enough not to understand the hint. If someone could scare a powerful man like Jiang Jinxing like this, that meant this Yang-Ge was actually powerful as well. And there was little to no person that could overpower Jiang Jinxing, other than… those in the government, and those around the same level as him.

There were only two families that were on the same level as Jinxing. Those were Feng Family and… Yang Family..

Feng Xiaojun was definitely out of the question since Shi Qiang said it herself that Feng Xiaojun wasn\'t interested in dating currently, and Jiang Jinxing was romantically courting him. So that filter only left Yang Group as the only choice possible.

I held my breath. I actually had a wicked accusation about Meng Bao, \'Yang… Yang Menghuo… Meng Bao, right? He is Yang Family\'s Young Master. He is probably the most powerful compared to Mr. Feng Xiaojun and Jiang Jinxing.

…

\'Did he actually tempered with my Rent A Boyfriend application? I still remember that my application was tempered, and it showed no other boyfriend except for Meng Bao,\' I thought. I really wanted to brush such a wicked accusation, but I couldn\'t help to get even more worried.

\'No, right? Meng Bao isn\'t that crazy. Meng Bao is a very gentle guy. Well, I\'m talking about Meng Bao, of course. Not Yang Menghuo. I felt like they were two different people living in one body. Because their personality change is too drastic.\'

"Jinxing, tell your Jie, who is this Yang-Ge you\'re talking about? This man… do I know him?"

"J—Jie, I misspoke, really. I\'m just talking crazy, hehe…" Jiang Jinxing tried to escape from my clutch, which I wouldn\'t allow him. I pulled his collar and asked again, now with my eyes glaring at him, acting like the good old Gorilla Girl in my childhood.

"Tell me."

Jiang Jinxing seemed to be in a very dilemmatic condition right now, he tried to struggle a bit, but he underestimated the power of Gorilla Girl. I grabbed his wrist, and then after that, he basically had no way out. He gulped while staring at me, beggingly, "J—Jie, just forget what I told you before, alright? I really don\'t want to get in trouble…"

"It\'s okay, you can tell Jie. If this man is the same man that I know, I will just be more careful around him. I just want to make sure that he is not a bad person," I said. Though, honestly, I doubted that Meng Bao would hurt me, even if he killed his competitors as Yang Menghuo. But better be safe than sorry, right?

Jiang Jinxing denied vehemently by shaking his head, "No! Not at all!  Yang-Ge is a very good guy. He is generous, handsome, and also a very good man who never hurts his beloved! I guarantee that you will have a good life with him! I swear!"

"It sounds like you\'re deliberately promoting him in front of me," I said, full of suspicion. "Just tell me who this man is. Wait, I know that you will not tell me. I will guess it myself.

I dragged Jiang Jinxing to the chairs near us and sat side to side, with Shi Qiang listening attentively on the side.

"Now, I told you I only have one boyfriend date from your Rent A Boyfriend app, right?"

"Yes…" Jinxing replied weakly. He seemed to he guessed the path leading to his destruction. The happy-go-lucky Jiang Jinxing before already vanished, replaced with the hesitant and terrified one.

"Well, don\'t be scared, Jinxing. Jie will not tell anyone, and I think you trust Shi Qiang enough to tell me about this, right?"

Jiang Jinxing was still scared and refused to say anything. Thus, I had to use my bait. I acted as if I was tired and sighed, "Ah, Jinxing. It\'s fine. I don\'t really need your answer. I was just testing you. Yang Menghuo already told me that you helped him."

"He did? Ah… you should\'ve told me sooner, Jie. You really scared me there…" Jinxing said while taking a relieved breath.

"AHA! So it\'s really Yang Menghuo!" I said out loud. My bait really worked! Jiang Jinxing turned out to be easily fooled.

Shi Qiang giggled while Jinxing was stunned silly. He stared at me full of confusion, and when he finally realized that he had been tricked by me.

"NOOOO!" Jinxing was in utter shock, while Shi Qiang and I laughed freely. Though, I started to pity him once he slumped from the chair, acting as if it was the end of the world.

"I… this is bad, Yang-Ge will definitely do something about this, and he will not stop until he got his revenge. Do I have enough private soldier to attack him first? No, that\'s not good. Yang-Ge is like a secret boss in a video game, he is too powerful..." Jinxing mumbled while he started thinking about the way to tackle this problem without so much force.

I looked at him and smiled, "Jinxing, don\'t be too scared. I really just want to ask whether he is the one that asked you to tamper with my application. So I can\'t choose anyone other than him."

I was really sure that Yang Menghuo would definitely do something wicked like that for his own gain. Even though I didn\'t think I was that much of a gain…

Jiang Jinxing paused for a moment, then he replied, this time, he looked serious,

"No, Ying Jie. Actually, I am the one who suggested it to him."

"WHAT?!"

"Yes, um… you see, Yang-Ge said to me that he has fallen in love with a woman named Shi Ying. I watched how he looked very happy whenever he talked about you. But he turned sad and sour once he told me that he got rejected because apparently, you said that he is too handsome for a family gathering."

"W—Well, he is definitely not the most convincing, right?" I said.

"Convincing or not, Yang-Ge is so devastated, um… he even drink with me the night after you rejected him, thinking that he will be single forever…" Jiang Jinxing said smoothly. I suspected that Jiang was lying, but then again, this was so convincing that I started to believe…

"Yang Menghuo really did that?" I asked.

"Yes, well, Yang-Ge shows me your profile and profile picture. As his close friend, I feel obliged to help him during his love chase, so I called my IT department manager and told him to tamper with your application and your phone. Really, I did that because I want to help Yang-Ge, no other wicked intention!" Jinxing said.

"But why do you need to hide this fact from me before?" I kept maintaining my suspicion, but in fact, I was already shaken when Jinxing said that Yang Menghuo was so happy about having a date with me.

"Um… Yang-Ge told me that you\'re a willful woman. So I know you wouldn\'t like it if I told you that I\'m trying to set up my Yang-Ge with you. Besides, Yang-Ge said he is too embarrassed. Maybe he doesn\'t want to sound too desperate. So I\'m trying to keep the secret," Jinxing explained even more.

"So… Yang Menghuo didn\'t threaten you with a gun or something?"

"N—No, How could that be?! Yang-Ge is not that violent! Besides, he said that he really likes you, you\'re his first love! You\'re like a cherry blossom in his cold winter heart! You are like—"

"Okay, stop, I believe you," I interrupted while loosening my grip on Jinxing\'s wrist. My cheeks reddened a bit, imagining about Meng Bao, who kept telling me about those corny pick up lines. It was cringy, but it made me feel good and giddy for some reason.

Jiang Jinxing gulped and got up from the chair immediately.

"Then. You\'re not angry with Yang-Ge, right?"

"I will reconsider," I said, though my cheeks didn\'t lie. I was actually happy with it, and it reddened even more.

"G—Good, then I will go now," Jiang Jinxing got up immediately. He said by to me and Qiang for the third time and left in a hurry.

Meanwhile, Shi Qiang, who heard everything, only raised her brows and then sat beside me. Like a good sister she was, she suddenly asked, "Jie, did you sleep with this Yang Menghuo already?"
