Master Fu looked at Jiang Ning with a mysterious smile. The glint in his eyes was even harder to read.
"I don't want any," Jiang Ning shook his head. "I have a cake at home, and it's even more delicious than yours."
"Tell you what. The slice I owe Zhang Cheng, I'll cut one slice from the cake I have at home. He won't get to enjoy Master Fu's cake."
Jiang Ning's second statement made Zhang Cheng fly out from the abyss and into the clouds.
He almost couldn't believe his ears.
What did Jiang Ning mean by that?
Was Jiang Ning taking him in?
But when he wanted to get help from Donghai, Jiang Ning had rejected him.
He wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say. It seemed a little disrespectful to Master Fu to agree to this arrangement in front of Master Fu.
Zhang Cheng suddenly felt like he was in a difficult position. He wasn't sure if this was a good thing or a bad thing.
But from the looks of it, Jiang Ning's impression of Zhang Cheng wasn't as bad as before.
Jiang Ning didn't say anymore. He looked at Master Fu and waited for a reply.
Master Fu also remained silent for a while. They just continued looking at each other like that, and Zhang Cheng was super nervous.
"Zhang Cheng, you should thank Jiang Ning," said Master Fu after a long time.
"Thank you, Mr Jiang!"
Zhang Cheng immediately clasped his hands and lifted his wine glass. "Here's to you, Mr Jiang!"
He gulped the whole glass down and his eyes were a little red.
They had their fill of food and drinks and the cake had been split up already, so all the bosses felt settled now, with the exception of Zhang Cheng. He was still a little anxious.
Master Fu said that he was tired, so all the bosses understood what he meant. They all immediately clasped their hands to take their leave and didn't stay any longer.
"Jiang Ning, there's tea in the backyard, have some before leaving," said Master Fu.
