Chapter 82: Corny

He Chi raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Jiang Yining kissed him lightly on the lips, but He Chi was not satisfied. He put his hands around her waist and pulled her against him.

He pressed the issue further, "It was just a touch. Isn't that a bit insincere?"

He wanted to get close to her for a while, but he heard Jiang Yining's stomach growling in protest.

Jiang Yining blushed, and before she could say anything, He Chi's stomach started to growl, which was a disappointment.

She couldn't help laughing, "Aunt Zhang should be almost done with lunch, let's go eat something first."

He Chi reluctantly let go of Jiang Yining's hand and asked, "What are you going to do this afternoon? Practice driving or go to the gym?"

Jiang Yining found his phone and said, "I'll change the SIM card first. Take He Xiaohui to the pet shop to get his nails trimmed."

When the two arrived at the restaurant, Aunt Zhang had just finished preparing the meal.

She smiled at the young couple and said, "Do you want me to make you some more soup tonight?"

Jiang Yining shuddered and quickly refused, "Goodbye, Aunt Zhang, please don't make that soup again."

He Chi is not driving a manual transmission now. If she drinks that soup again, she probably won't be able to get out of bed again.

Seeing that she refused in a panic when Aunt Zhang said she wanted to make soup, He Chi suddenly wanted to tease her.

He curled his lips and said in a very provocative tone, "Don't you like drinking? I was thinking about it last night."

Jiang Yining: “???”

"When did I tell you that?"

Jiang Yining wanted to hit someone, but when she saw Aunt Zhang smiling like an aunt, she felt too embarrassed to refuse.

But when he thought about the "power" of the soup, Jiang Yining didn't dare to refuse, "Aunt Zhang, can you make some soup for He Chi to reduce his needs?"

Aunt Zhang was stunned when she said this.

Jiang Yining felt that she might be having a brain attack, but she really needed this kind of soup right now.

She blushed and bit her lip.

He Chi, who was sitting next to her, laughed so hard that his shoulders shook.

Aunt Zhang: "This... I'll go back and study it."

He Chi laughed enough and said, "Aunt Zhang, let's not study it anymore. What if you end up drinking me to death? Where will my grandmother go to find a great-grandson?"

Aunt Zhang nodded and said, "Yining, He Chi is right. I can't take responsibility for it."

She found an opportunity to slip away.

He Chi still found it funny when he saw Jiang Yining's red ears. He raised his hand and gently pinched her face, saying with a smile, "Wife, why didn't I find you so cute before?"

"How rare."

Hearing his teasing, Jiang Yining really didn't intend to endure it this time.

She hit him on the arm a few times, "How dare you laugh? It's all because of you. I don't care. I won't go to the gym this week, but remember that I'm in perfect attendance this week!"

No wonder He Chi is so disliked by Teacher Lin. Everything happens for a reason. It’s really not Teacher Lin’s fault.

He Xiaohui ran over at some point and stood with Jiang Yining.

Two to one, He Chi admitted defeat, "Okay, okay, I'll remember your perfect attendance."

Jiang Yining was finally satisfied.

He Chi pushed He Xiaohui aside in disdain, "Little lazy cat, stay away."

He Xiaohui meowed.

Seeing its silly and cute appearance, He Chi couldn't help laughing. He was not a person who liked to laugh. With Jiang Yining and He Xiaohui at home, he couldn't help laughing.

After lunch, since Aunt Zhang had already left, Jiang Yining sent He Chi to wash the dishes.

When He Chi said they wanted to go out together, Jiang Yining took out his cell phone to review the questions for Subject 1.

After sending He Xiaohui to the pet shop, He Chi followed Jiang Yining to the mobile phone store. "You don't want this card anymore, right?"

Jiang Yining was choosing a new number. She hummed and said, "No, I'll change the phone number bound to WeChat after I get the new card."

He Chi reminded her, "Remember to go to the bank to update your mobile phone number."

"I know." Jiang Yining saw one of the numbers and pointed it out to He Chi. "Do you think this one is good? The last number is 168. I hope our company will prosper."

Seeing her smiling, He Chi curled his lips and said, "My family is already rich, give others a chance."

He pointed and said, "I want this one for 520."

Jiang Yining smiled at the clerk and listened to He Chi, "Then I'll take this one."

After getting the new card, Jiang Yining first told Teacher Lin, and then sent her new number to her close friends and her uncle's family.

Zhang Qiao asked her, "Why did you change your phone number?"

Jiang Yining replied, "Because I don't want to be harassed by those random people."

Zhang Qiaoming understood.

Jiang Yining was too busy this week, so she hadn't asked Zhang Qiao yet, "How's your project going? Did you meet that big client?"

Zhang Qiao sent her a frustrated emoji, "This important client is very busy. I only met with his assistant, who said he would convey my apology."

Zhang Qiao: [I think this project is going to fail. I'm already preparing to write my resignation letter.]

Jiang Yining asked in confusion, "Isn't it possible to get compensation if you get fired?"

After this message was sent, Jiang Yining received a "You wishful thinking" emoji from Zhang Qiao: [It's a blessing for capitalists not to squeeze every last drop of surplus value out of their employees.]

Then, Zhang Qiao sent another message: [I'm just afraid that this shitty manager will frame me and fire me, which will affect my future job search.]

Manager Zhang Qiao’s surname is Shi, but Zhang Qiao and his friends like to call him “Shit Manager”.

Every time Jiang Yining saw this name, he couldn't help but laugh.

Jiang Yining was worried that Zhang Qiaozhen would lose her job, after all, it is difficult to find a job nowadays.

Seeing her suddenly frown, He Chi asked, "What are you talking about?"

She and He Chi were waiting for the clerk in the pet shop to cut He Xiaohui's nails.

Jiang Yining talked to He Chi for a few words. Lincheng is so small, maybe He Chi knows the big client that Zhang Qiao mentioned.

He Chi also asked her at this time, "Ask Zhang Qiao which company her client is from."

"Okay." Jiang Yining lowered his head and typed: [He Chi asked me to ask your client.]

Zhang Qiao replied: [Junxi Hotel Group, Song Xingjin.]

Jiang Yining showed the phone to He Chi, "Do you know it?"

It turned out to be the old antique Song Xingjin.

He Chi nodded, "Yes, I do. We've known each other since childhood. My grandmother and his grandmother are close friends."

"But I'm not familiar with him. Chen Feng does have some friendship with him. It shouldn't be difficult to ask Chen Feng to invite him out."

He Chi said, "Ask Zhang Qiao. If he needs help, I'll ask Chen Feng to invite him to Shiyou."

Jiang Yining conveyed He Chi's intention to Zhang Qiao.

Zhang Qiao didn't want to bother Jiang Yining with help right now. She planned to try again on her own: "If it really doesn't work, I'll bother you again, Ningning. Thank you."

Jiang Yining: [Why are you thanking me? Besides, He Chi can only help arrange appointments. Whether the project can succeed depends on you.]

Zhang Qiao replied: [Got it, dear, I love you.]

He Chi glanced at her with his dark eyes, "You girls always talk so cheesy?"

Jiang Yining put away his phone and glanced at him, "So Teacher Lin said you don't understand romance."

He Chi raised his eyebrows slightly, "Teacher Lin is complaining about this to you?"

Jiang Yining hummed complacently, "There's more to it than that, so you'd better try to please me more often. If you make a mistake in the future, I'll consider pleading for you."

He Chi deliberately asked her, "Am I not working hard enough?"

Jiang Yining: “…”
