Chapter 637 Jiang Budu x Tang Qing if line (HE version)

A few minutes later, the two sat down to eat together.

Jiang Budu sat down later. He placed the mixed salad on the table. Seeing Tang Qing sitting upright, he asked, "Why aren't you eating?"

Tang Qing shook his head, "Wait for you."

She simply said two words, but Jiang Budu smiled brightly. He sat down, picked up his chopsticks and gave her a piece of meat, "Try it."

Tang Qing took a bite and before Jiang Budu could ask, she answered, "It tastes good."

Jiang Budu has made rapid progress in cooking recently. Basically, every time she takes the first bite, Jiang Budu will ask her how it tastes. After a long time, Tang Qing can already predict it.

Jiang Budu was very satisfied with this answer, "Then eat more."

Tang Qing hummed, then took a sip of the water beside her, moistening her throat. She looked at the person opposite her and said, "I don't need the car anymore. Your people can drive it away when they are free."

"Put it here. You can use it when you go on a long trip. It's inconvenient to squeeze into the subway." Jiang Budu said.

Tang Qing didn't respond.

Jiang Budu: "Have you been having fun recently?"

Tang Qing nodded, "Very good."

After answering this question, Tang Qing pondered for a few seconds and took the initiative to get to the point: "I've thought about what you said before."

Jiang Budu paused for a moment, seemingly taken aback by her sudden change of topic. However, he quickly reacted, "Okay, tell me what you think."

Tang Qing: "I just graduated, it's too early for me to get married. I haven't considered it yet. If you're willing, we can try it out as boyfriend and girlfriend first."

"Yes, of course." Jiang Budu answered without hesitation.

Finally, he smiled and said, "Thank you for giving me this opportunity to become a regular employee."

Tang Qing: “…”

She had no experience in love, and faced with Jiang Budu's enthusiasm, she would sometimes be unable to resist. Although she was not so panicked that it was written on her face, she would still be stuck for a long time.

After half a minute of silence, Tang Qing took a breath and spoke again: "Have you consulted the leaders of the bank?"

Jiang Budu: "What?"

"When I got off work the day before the holiday, I ran into two leaders and happened to hear them talking about this." Tang Qing repeated what he heard at the time.

The smile on Jiang Budu's face gradually disappeared, and his originally calm demeanor became a little nervous.

"Are you angry?" Jiang Budu asked tentatively. Without waiting for her answer, he took the initiative to explain: "I don't want others to point fingers at you. I know you don't care, but I..."

"Thank you." Tang Qing interrupted his explanation, looked into his eyes, and said, "I'm not angry."

After she finished speaking, she saw Jiang Budu heaved a sigh of relief. He seemed really afraid that she would get angry - she was used to seeing him being high and mighty, bossing her around, so his humility always surprised her.

"Are you willing to believe me now?" Jiang Budu asked her.

"If you don't want to, I won't have this conversation with you." Tang Qing said, "Although I don't know why you suddenly changed your attitude, I have a feeling about what you have done recently."

"No matter what the result is, let's give it a try. But I want to make it clear first, if we don't succeed in the end..."

"If you broke up because of me, don't worry, I won't disturb you." Jiang Budu took over her words.

Tang Qing was quite surprised. She didn't expect Jiang Budu to guess what she was going to say. She nodded and said, "Okay, as long as you can do it."

"I have another question." Jiang Budu stared into her eyes, "Shouldn't we keep our relationship secret?"

Tang Qing had not had time to think seriously about this question.

After Jiang Budu asked this, she spent a few minutes thinking about it, and finally came to the conclusion: there was no need to hide anything.

People in the industry had previously speculated about the relationship between the two of them. The fact that they are not discussing it now does not mean that they don’t have any ideas, but that they have to do so because their leader has spoken.

Jiang Budu had already talked to his superiors and told them that she was his girlfriend.

In this situation, if they kept it a secret, it would be self-deception and meaningless - she was not someone who liked to show off her affection in a high-profile manner. She was unwilling to let others know before because her relationship with Jiang Budu was not one that could be made public.

Now the mood is different.

While Tang Qing was thinking, Jiang Budu was very nervous. As she remained silent, his heart began to lift a little bit.

The moment I saw Tang Qing nod, my heart finally settled down.

"Then I'll take you to work tomorrow morning?" Jiang Budu asked tentatively.

Tang Qing: "Won't it waste your time?"

Jiang Budu: "I'm the boss, I can go any time I want."

When he said this, his tone returned to its previous arrogance, his chin slightly raised, with a look of contempt that looked down on the world.

But when Tang Qing saw him like this again, he didn't feel uncomfortable as before. Instead, he was amused by his expression.

"Okay." After laughing, Tang Qing curled his lips, picked up his chopsticks and continued eating.

However, the next few bites she took were all from the salad.

Jiang Budu reminded her: "Eat meat."

"I just ate a few pieces. I'd better eat less tonight," she said. "I ate too much during the holidays."

Jiang Budu looked her up and down, his gaze finally landing on her face: "Don't worry, you're not fat."

Although the words sounded nice, Tang Qing didn't believe them and continued to eat her salad. Seeing how determined she was, Jiang Budu stopped urging her to eat.

Jiang Budu never thought that Tang Qing was fat, but she was indeed not very skinny. He also did not like those who were too thin. Tang Qing had a well-proportioned figure, fleshy but very tight. With her height of nearly 1.7 meters and excellent proportions, even though he had seen many people, he would still be amazed by her.

Tang Qing, who has just entered society, still has some of the immaturity unique to this age, and also has emotions that cannot be hidden.

Jiang Budu watched her eating, the conversation just now emerged in his mind, and he laughed unconsciously.

He once scoffed at Fu Xijing's behavior of pretending to be pitiful in front of Song Yi, thinking it was both embarrassing and laughable, but after experimenting, he found that this trick was indeed effective.

This was the first time that he and Tang Qing communicated in such a calm manner. She was no longer silent as before, and took the initiative to confess all her thoughts to him.

Jiang Budu became even more certain that the reason they couldn't communicate normally before was not Tang Qing's fault, but his - because he had never spoken to her in an equal manner, and almost always found fault.

In order to avoid conflict, she can only pretend not to hear, and he will become even more angry because of her ignoring him, and the next time he finds fault, he will say even harsher words. It will be a vicious cycle. It would be strange if their relationship can be good.

If there really is a pill to regret in this world, he has taken it now.

The thing that had once troubled him the most finally got an answer at this moment - the 25-year-old Tang Qing had fallen in love with him, but he was too stupid to see it.
