Due to issues with the betrothal gift, Qiao Xing's two-year relationship with her boyfriend collapsed overnight. Feeling disheartened, her elderly neighbor insisted his grandson go on a blind d...
Chapter 678 is very strange.
Jiang Wang was annoyed and too lazy to explain to him. "If you don't believe me, fine. I'm going upstairs."
Grandpa Jiang called out to him, "Wait a minute."
Jiang Wang turned his head. "What's wrong?"
“You’re not young anymore. You should start taking care of things at home and at the company. Don’t just waste your time all day. Go to the company when you have time. It won’t hurt you to learn more.”
Grandpa Jiang said this to Jiang Wang with a try-it-out attitude.
During this period, Jiang Wang unusually refrained from indulging in debauchery outside. He wondered if the kid had truly grown up and realized that he should take on the pressure.
After he said it, he was even mentally prepared to be refuted by Jiang Wang.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Wang stood there in silence for a moment before saying, "Okay, I understand."
His attitude greatly shocked Old Master Jiang.
He had mentioned this before, but Jiang Wang always ignored it, and when he got angry, he would even talk back to you.
They'd never be this easy to talk to before.
Grandpa Jiang even suspected that Yang Han might have damaged his brain that day.
But after the initial shock, Old Master Jiang couldn't hide his joy.
Regardless of the reason, he was very pleased as long as the kid was willing.
Jiang Wang was not the only son in the Jiang family, and the old master Jiang did not have high hopes for him, which resulted in Jiang Wang being unloved in the Jiang family from a young age.
But as the children in the family grew up and their interests and ambitions became increasingly difficult to conceal, Old Master Jiang realized that only Jiang Wang, who seemed the most unreliable and useless, was actually the purest person in the family.
Jiang Wang returned to his room, asked the maid to bring him the first-aid kit, bandaged the wound on his arm, and then lay down on the bed, sleeping soundly until the next day.
Before I was even fully awake in the morning, a servant knocked on the door: "Young master, your friend is here to see you."
Jiang Wang has a bad temper when he wakes up. After hearing the sound, he said without thinking, "Tell him to get lost, I'm sleeping!"
Just as he was about to pull the blanket over his head and continue sleeping, he vaguely heard someone outside saying, "You can leave this to him. If he doesn't have time, I'll be leaving now."
Upon hearing this sound, Jiang Wang suddenly sat up in bed.
He didn't even have time to put on his slippers before rushing out of the bedroom.
The maid was startled by his hurried appearance. "Young Master, you...you're up?"
Jiang Wang stared intently at Bai Yi. "Why are you here?"
"I've come to return the money from yesterday to you." Bai Yi paused, then said somewhat awkwardly, "I also came to see you. Thank you for your help yesterday."
This was the first time Bai Yi had spoken to Jiang Wang in such a tone since their breakup.
Jiang Wang didn't know how to describe his feelings. It was like being excited and thrilled, like a child who often makes mistakes doing something good and being praised by an adult.
In short, that feeling was very strange.
Jiang Wang tried hard to control himself, not letting his expression show on his face.
"You're welcome. I owe you this talent."
Bai Yi twitched the corner of her mouth. She didn't actually like the word "owe," especially between her and Jiang Wang.
Regardless of who owes whom, it's not a good thing for them.
"Is the injury on your arm alright?"
Jiang Wang glanced at his arm, and for a moment, he regretted not listening to Wang Ye and going to the hospital.
If he were lying in a hospital bed right now, would Bai Yi's attitude towards him be different?
He shook his head. "It's nothing, just a small wound."
After they finished speaking, they both fell silent.
Perhaps sensing the awkward atmosphere between them, Bai Yi said to Jiang Wang, "Then you should rest well, I'll go back first."
Bai Yi had just turned around when she heard Jiang Wang call her, "Bai Yi!"
Bai Yi stopped and turned to look at him. "What's wrong?"
Jiang Wang opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
Bai Yi stood still, quietly watching him.
Jiang Wang wished he could slap himself in the face.
Are you out of your mind? Why did you call someone over for no reason?
Jiang Wang hesitated for a long time, not knowing what to say, and finally blurted out, "Can I still go to the restaurant to eat hot pot?"
Bai Yi was taken aback for a moment, then chuckled and said, "Sure, you can come anytime as long as you're willing to spend the money."
After Bai Yi left, Jiang Wang returned to his room. Looking at his messy hair and the fact that he wasn't wearing slippers, he couldn't help but feel disgusted with himself.
What a loser!
After learning that Linlin had been found, Qiao Xing came to the store to see him early in the morning.
I even bought some toys and snacks that kids like when I came.
Wang Ye complained that she was wasting money, saying, "We're already overflowing with all these things at home. He won't even play with them for more than a few days. Why waste the money?"
Linlin was very happy to see the toys. Qiao Xing saw that he was not affected by yesterday's events at all, so she reached out and pinched his soft cheek.
She looked around the store and found that Bai Yi wasn't there. She asked in confusion, "Where's Bai Yi? Did she go back to the branch?"
Wang Ye said, "No, she went to find Jiang Wang."
Qiao Xing was stunned. "Who did she go to see?"
"Jiang Wang," Wang Ye looked at her with a puzzled expression, "you're pregnant, and your hearing has deteriorated?"
Qiao Xing looked at Wang Ye's nonchalant attitude and didn't know what to say for a moment.
She asked tentatively, "Cousin, you don't mind if Bai Yi goes to see Jiang Wang?"
Wang Ye said, "Why should I care? She had a reason for going to see Jiang Wang, it's not like she was doing something sneaky behind my back."
Qiao Xing thought to herself, "This shouldn't be happening."
Given Wang Ye's temperament, even if he knew that Bai Yi and Jiang Wang had no chance of getting back together,
But the two of them had been together before, and for that reason alone, Wang Ye would definitely care.
But now he seems not only not to mind, but also seems quite at ease about Bai Yi going to Jiang Wang.
Qiao Xing still felt it was a bit unrealistic. "Cousin, are you sure you haven't suffered any kind of shock?"
Wang Ye looked at Qiao Xing strangely, and then understood why Qiao Xing asked that question, "Do you think I should be jealous that Bai Yi went to see Jiang Wang?"
Qiao Xing said, "Shouldn't we?"
"Actually, when I first found out that they had been together before, I felt a little uncomfortable."
Men are naturally possessive, and even if a relationship is over, they will still be bothered by it.
Many men have this mentality, and Wang Ye is no exception.
“But then I realized something,” Wang Ye said.
Qiao Xing asked curiously, "What have you figured out?"
"I've figured out that even if I didn't marry Bai Yi, she would never choose to be with Jiang Wang, or choose a man like Jiang Wang."
