Chapter 174 Like a Clown

Zhao Ning took the small notebook and hesitated, as if he wanted to say something else.

It was obvious that I was determined, so he just said "thank you" and left.

In the evening, Jiang Yichen drove to the company's parking lot and quietly waited for Gu Mo to get off work. However, Mr. Jiang seemed to have received the news and hurried over.

He knocked lightly on Jiang Yichen's car window, signaling Jiang Yichen to get out of the car. Jiang Yichen raised his eyebrows slightly, glanced at him, and asked coldly: "Uncle Jiang, is there anything wrong?" This "Uncle Jiang" made Mr. Jiang feel uncomfortable, but he thought that Jiang Yichen was not his biological son after all, so he gritted his teeth and responded coldly: "Although you can't be the chairman of the company, I can hire you as the company manager and come back to work."

Hearing this, Jiang Yichen slowly got out of the car, crossed his arms and looked at Old Man Jiang, with a playful smile on his face: "Isn't this bad? Since I have already left the company, I shouldn't go back. Besides, there is no need to go back."

Seeing Jiang Yichen's cold attitude, Mr. Jiang said stubbornly: "I have seen that you have made a lot of contributions to the company over the years, so I want you to come back to the company to continue working. Don't be ungrateful." He thought that Jiang Yichen didn't know what had happened in the company recently, and that as long as he put the overall situation first and generously invited Jiang Yichen to come back, Jiang Yichen would be grateful.

However, Jiang Yichen already knew everything about the company. He smiled meaningfully and asked, "Do you want to hire me back? Or do you think the company can't do without me?" This sentence made Mr. Jiang speechless. He realized that Jiang Yichen was not as simple as he imagined.

"Don't push your luck!" Mr. Jiang explained angrily, his voice trembling with anger, and he looked more and more like a clown. Jiang Yichen looked at him, and the mocking smile on his lips became more and more obvious.

Mr. Jiang became even angrier. He scolded, "You can come back or not, but don't beg me when the time comes!" Jiang Yichen looked nonchalant and said in a light tone, "Okay, I also want to know who will beg whom."

Jiang Yichen's attitude completely angered Mr. Jiang. He almost felt like he couldn't breathe and was about to faint. In the end, he could only come in anger and leave in anger.

When he returned home, Mr. Jiang was furious. He roared angrily: "Who the hell is he? How dare he talk to me like that! Does he think he is the president of Jiang Group?" The aunt (Mr. Jiang's wife) sitting next to him didn't dare to say a word. She just frowned and sighed.

"Master, what should we do now? If he really doesn't go back, then the project..." the aunt's daughter asked worriedly. Master Jiang snorted coldly: "Where else can he go if he doesn't go back to the company? I wonder which company dares to hire him!"

Seeing how angry Mr. Jiang was, Auntie was secretly calculating. She rolled her eyes and suddenly came up with a plan, suggesting, "I think that brat is quite concerned about that damn girl from the Gu family. Otherwise, why not let that girl persuade him?"

Hearing this, Mr. Jiang remained silent and began to think seriously. After a moment, he felt that what the aunt said did make some sense, so he nodded slightly and decided to give it a try according to the aunt's advice.

But he was still filled with anger and dissatisfaction towards Jiang Yichen. He muttered to himself, "If you ask me, this brat must have been spoiled by his grandmother! I am willing to hire him with a high salary, and he actually dared to refuse me!"

"Okay, okay, grandpa, don't be angry. If you get hurt again, that kid will suffer." The aunt comforted Grandpa Jiang and asked someone to bring him some tonic soup. "Drink some and take a rest. I will take care of the rest. Look at us..." The aunt whispered in Grandpa Jiang's ear about her plan.

On the other hand, after work, I received a message from Jiang Yichen, asking me to go downstairs to the underground parking lot to find him. I was pleasantly surprised. I didn't expect Jiang Yichen to come and pick me up in person. I felt so happy. I secretly looked around. Others were still live streaming, but mine had already ended. So I quietly left and ran to the underground parking lot. From a distance, I saw Jiang Yichen's car, and a clear smile appeared on the corner of my mouth.

I stepped on my high heels and trotted towards him, asking coquettishly, "How come Mr. Jiang has so much time to pick me up today?"

Jiang Yichen smiled and hugged my waist, and joked affectionately: "I can't help it. I'm unemployed now. I don't know if Miss Gu will dislike me."

I looked up, pretending to think, and answered after a long while: "What if I say I dislike you?"

Hearing this, Jiang Yichen smiled even more and said, "Then I'm afraid I can only find a corner and cry secretly." His tone was full of pampering and helplessness, which made me feel even sweeter.

"Since our President Jiang is so pitiful, I will reward you well tonight." I said with a smile, trying to ease the atmosphere.

Jiang Yichen raised his eyebrows, looked at me thoughtfully, and asked, "Then how does Miss Gu want to reward me? Will it be sexual compensation, or..."

I quickly covered his mouth to stop him from talking nonsense, and said coquettishly, "You are really becoming more and more indecent. Let's go back quickly, otherwise everyone will find us after get off work."

Jiang Yichen didn't seem to care. He smiled and said, "Why? Is my current identity so shameful?"

I was a little depressed. Why did Jiang Yichen not seem sad at all? Instead, he seemed more relaxed and carefree than before? I frowned and looked at him seriously: "Are you hiding something from me? Why do I feel like you're happier after leaving the company?"

Jiang Yichen looked at me, a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes. He gently held my hand and said, "If I say I will support you, and you only need to eat, drink and have fun every day and do nothing else, will you be happy?"

I thought about it seriously and I am indeed very happy.

Jiang Yichen went around to the other side and opened the car door for me, "Hurry up and get in the car, Princess."

"Okay, I will go with you today reluctantly."

I pretended to be superior and cooperated with his performance.

I suddenly feel that the way we get along now is pretty good, and it would be even better if it could always be like this.

In the car, Jiang Yichen mentioned to me that Mr. Jiang was looking for him and asked me to be careful recently.

I frowned. This time, the Jiang family was shooting itself in the foot.
