Chapter 75: Jinjiang Dufa, what are you guys going to do...

Because he had an appointment to go home for dinner on the weekend, Jiang Chen had been extra well behaved these past two days. He didn't dare to flirt with Lu Chiyuan in the slightest, for fear that Lu Chiyuan would suddenly remember to ask him something.

On the weekend, Jiang Chen changed to Lu Chiyuan's car and drove home. In the trunk were fruits prepared by Lu Chiyuan, and on the back seat was a bouquet of flowers.

They stopped in front of an older style villa. Xia He heard the sound and went out to greet them. The servants behind her came forward to carry the fruit downstairs. Lu Chiyuan took the flowers and gave them to Xia He.

Xia He was a little surprised. She took the flower, fiddled with the buds that were about to bloom, and smiled. Even though time had been kind to her, there were still some fine lines at the corners of her eyes when she smiled.

Lu Chiyuan had the impression that this was the first time he had come into contact with her, yet he inexplicably felt a sense of familiarity, as if they had lived together for a long time.

Xia He called the two children into the house. She looked around the living room and chose a perfect place to put the flowers, ensuring that anyone who entered the living room could see them.

Jiang Chen said sourly: "Look how much my mother likes your gift."

Lu Chiyuan said: "This is my first time visiting you, is this an affirmation of me, Auntie?"

Jiang Chen choked, he looked at Lu Chiyuan and frowned in confusion.

Xia He and Jiang Tian were both celebrities in the circle, big or small. Even if the influence of world consciousness caused Lu Chiyuan to forget the relationship between them, he was not completely ignorant.

From the moment Lu Chiyuan entered the room until now, he did not show the slightest bit of surprise, as if he had known Jiang Chen's identity for a long time.

Jiang Chen said: "Don't you think my mother looks familiar?"

Lu Chiyuan knew what he wanted to ask, and he adjusted the watch on his wrist and said, "Isn't it a little late for you to confess to me now, Master Jiang?"

Lu Chiyuan's words undoubtedly admitted that he had known Jiang Chen's identity for a long time, but he had never exposed it.

Jiang Chen smiled awkwardly. He didn't want to think about it either. Didn't he forget about it? He was just avoiding other things.

"Chenchen, Chiyuan, why are you still standing at the door? Come in."

After Xia He arranged the flowers, she turned around and saw the two children standing at the door. The way they got along was the same as usual. Lu Chiyuan always gave in to Jiang Chen. No matter what Jiang Chen said or did, his eyes would be on Jiang Chen. He listened carefully and never gave in.

In fact, Xia He called the children back today because she had her own concerns. She had been feeling uneasy since she met Jiang Chen last time. In addition, there were some bad rumors in the outside world, which made her feel uneasy, so she wanted to see it with her own eyes.

Now the two children still have a good relationship and there is no sign of estrangement between them, so Xia He finally put her mind at ease.

She comforted herself that she was overthinking it. The two children grew up together and had a good relationship. How could their relationship break down because of a little trouble?

Jiang Chen heard Xia He's voice, which sounded like heavenly music. He quickly walked to Xia He's side and massaged her shoulders to show his courtesy. Without even waiting for Xia He to ask about their recent situation, he told her the story he had prepared in advance.

He is still the same, running an entertainment company with Xu Chen. Lu Chiyuan is like a fish in water in the business world, but he has had some minor frictions with Lin Feng recently.

Hearing Lin Feng, Xia He remembered the last time Gu Tingsen made things difficult for Jiang Chen, and said unhappily: "That Gu Tingsen again? I think there is really no one left in their Gu family. I will tell your father later that the cooperation with the Gu family cannot be accepted."

"The Gu family is looking for you to discuss cooperation?" Jiang Chen was a little surprised that Gu Tingsen was so quick.

Xia He said, "We have been in contact since we met at the last charity gala. Gu Tingsen saw that it was not working for him to come forward, so he asked the old man of the Gu family to come out as a lobbyist. You also know that the old man has some relationship with your grandfather. It is impossible for us, the younger generation, to ignore this relationship just because your grandfather passed away."

The Gu family was able to support the family business, and there were at least a few capable people. In the early years, their family industry chain was not clear, and it was the old man who was in charge of the family, and there were more or less some intersections with the Jiang family.

Later, the family business was handed over to his son, and the old man retired and stopped caring about it. His son behaved eccentrically, which Grandpa Jiang Chen did not like, so he gradually cut off business dealings with him.

Now that the old man has come out to plead for the younger generation and wants to resume cooperation, Jiang Tian is a little hesitant and thinks that a pilot project can be started.

Xia He was one with him and did not oppose his decision. But after hearing what Jiang Chen said, Xia He no longer had any hope for this business.

The Jiang family and the Lu family are close partners. The Gu family can come in and get a piece of the pie, but they cannot harm the interests of the Lu family.

Backstabbing your friend for an unstable collaborator will only end up hurting you.

As for the old man of the Gu family, Jiang Tian can provide help in other ways to fulfill the friendship of the older generation.

Xia He didn't dwell on this matter. She made up her mind and didn't talk about it any more. She hadn't seen Lu Chiyuan for a long time. Even though Jiang Chen was between them, it didn't stop her from caring about Lu Chiyuan's recent situation again.

Lu Chiyuan was very smart. He just followed Jiang Chen's words to make sure that what they said matched.

But they never had much experience in chatting. When they were in the mood, they would talk about everything under the sun. Xia He asked about his parents' recent situation.

Jiang Chen suddenly became nervous, but fortunately Lu Chiyuan didn't think too much about it and said, "Mom participated in an overseas design competition some time ago. She is very confident in the competition and should be able to get a good ranking."

"Is it jewelry design? She mentioned it to me, but I was too busy before and didn't ask her if the competition went well."

Xia He was reminded of her past and felt a little annoyed that she, as her best friend, had neglected Li Siya for work all these days. You know, in the past, whenever there was such a design competition, she would discuss it with Li Siya.

She liked Li Shiya's wild imagination, and her eyes always sparkled when she talked about design.

Lu Chiyuan said: "The design this time is not difficult. Mom used the previous design draft. She said that after returning from this competition, she wants to go traveling with you."

Li Siya likes to draw drafts when she has nothing to do. She has won many gold awards for design and has a lot of extra design drafts. She happened to have a draft that fits the theme of this design, so she made some changes and submitted it for the competition.

Before Lu Chiyuan came to visit her, he spoke to her on the phone and asked her some questions about her and Xia He without leaving any trace, and got to know some of their relationship.

"We have planned to travel several times, but it has never happened. I hope we can go after she comes back this time."

Speaking of this, Xia He felt quite regretful. Before, the two of them could go on a trip whenever they wanted, but in the past six months, it seemed like the weather was not good for them. Every time they made an appointment, they would be burdened by trivial matters and break the appointment.

Lu Chiyuan roughly guessed the reason. His parents were not trapped in his world, but they were also separated because of it.

Xia He talked about other topics, and Lu Chiyuan answered perfectly. Jiang Chen's nervous heart gradually relaxed, and he strolled to the kitchen to see what delicious food his aunt was making.

The weather is hot in summer, so Xia He pays attention to diet and the meals prepared by her aunt are mainly light.

Jiang Tian had a meeting and didn't go downstairs until lunch time.

Jiang Chen and Lu Chiyuan were talking in private and didn't notice when Jiang Tian arrived at the restaurant. However, Lu Chiyuan saw him and greeted him first: "Uncle Jiang."

Jiang Tian smiled and asked, "You guys are back?"

Jiang Chen looked up and called out "Dad", then turned to look at Lu Chiyuan.

Jiang Tian and Lu's father were born in the same year and month but on different days. He was a few days older, but he got married late and played around for two more years before having a child, which is why Jiang Chen was born later than Lu Chiyuan.

Generally speaking, few people actually pay attention to this issue.

[Qiuqiu, are you sure Lu Chiyuan really didn't remember it? ]

Jiang Chen asked calmly.

From the moment he entered the door until now, Lu Chiyuan has performed well. From his perspective, this is his first visit, but he does not feel as reserved as he did the first time.

Some of the things Xia He talked to him about were his past memories, but they did not appear in the current setting. He was not surprised by this and was able to adapt to the situation.

He was too calm. Jiang Chen's pre-planned rescue did not appear. This was a good thing, but he vaguely felt that something was wrong.

Snowball said: [He doesn't even remember the last time you two had sex, how do you expect him to remember something from a longer time ago?]

Lu Chiyuan escaped from Gu Tingsen's home turf and did not proceed to the next step according to the preset storyline. Instead, he found Jiang Chen, which made him deviate from the story track.

From the perspective of the world consciousness, this was an act that went against the character's logic, so Lu Chiyuan's memory was erased.

Lu Chiyuan is still controlled by the plot.

Jiang Chen withdrew his gaze, but the doubts in his heart did not disappear.

He thought about Li Siya's attitude towards him before she recovered her memory. Lu Chiyuan was also by her side at that time. How could he not be suspicious when he heard it?

When one doubt arises, other doubts will follow.

Lu Chiyuan is a perceptive person. The problems of this world have been exposed more than once. Has the world consciousness really been completely covered up?

Jiang Chen was happy to see Lu Chiyuan doubting the world, but was worried that he would encounter danger during the process of testing.

After lunch, Jiang Tian asked Lu Chiyuan to follow him to the study. He wanted to talk to him about work.

Lu Chiyuan looked at Jiang Chen, as if asking for his opinion, asking him whether he should go.

Jiang Chen was unwilling in his heart, but it was difficult to refuse openly, so he stepped forward and said, "I want to listen too."

Jiang Tian said: "Don't you always dislike hearing these things? Or are you worried that I will embarrass him because of the branch company's affairs?"

Hengxing suffered a heavy loss this time, which was also partly the reason why Jiang Tian and Xia He came back.

Lu Chiyuan's face turned serious when he heard this. He held Jiang Chen's hand and said softly, "It's okay. I should talk to Uncle Jiang. It's rare for you to come back. Why don't you spend more time with Auntie?"

Jiang Chen hesitated for a moment, but did not insist on following.

Watching Lu Chiyuan and Jiang Tian go upstairs, Jiang Chen fell onto the sofa. Just as he lay down, he heard Xia He's voice and quickly stood up again.

Xia He walked over to him and sat down, saying, "Don't go back today. I have an appointment with a designer this afternoon to come and take your measurements and tailor clothes."

Jiang Chen asked in confusion: "Why are you making clothes all of a sudden?"

"I'm making wedding dresses. You've been engaged for more than half a year. Don't you two want to get married?" Xia He said, "It's not that you don't like it. It's not a good idea to keep putting it off."

Jiang Chen was startled and subconsciously looked upstairs. After making sure that Lu Chiyuan was not there, he took Xia He's arm and said coquettishly, "I don't want to separate from you so soon. Engagement and marriage are completely different in nature. I don't think there is any need to rush."

Xia He gently pushed his forehead and smiled softly. Just when Jiang Chen thought he could get away with it, Xia He stopped smiling and said seriously, "Chenchen, tell mom, is there any conflict between you and Chi Yuan?"

Jiang Chen flatly denied: "No."

Xia He said nothing, just looked at him quietly, her pair of dark eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.

Lu Chiyuan did perform very well, but Jiang Chen was the first to show his true colors. Xia He noticed his nervousness and awkwardness.

Seeing that he couldn't fool around, Jiang Chen sat upright, put his hands on his knees, and said frankly, "Well, we did have some conflicts before. We talked about getting married. Our careers are both developing, and premature marriage is more like a bondage to me."

Jiang Chen was talking about the quarrel between him and Lu Chiyuan in the old house. Xia He's timeline was normal, so she would definitely be able to ask the questions she wanted.

After he entered the entertainment industry, his work schedule became unstable, and the time he spent with Lu Chiyuan was also unstable. They had already had disagreements over this issue long before the quarrel.

Right now Lu Chiyuan's timeline is abnormal, Jiang Chen takes the responsibility on himself.

"I know that relationships shouldn't be capricious, and I'm also trying to find a balance. So let's not talk about marriage for now, okay? My dear mother."

Xia He shook her head helplessly: "You have always been a lively and unrestrained person since you were a child, so it's normal for you to think this way. Chi Yuan has been very careful with you because of your kidnapping, and he always keeps you under his nose to feel at ease. You didn't give a definite answer, so he was always worried. Over time, conflicts naturally arose."

Xia He knows that some young people nowadays like to date but don't want to get married. She won't say that the child's idea is wrong, but just give him some advice from the perspective of someone who has experienced it.

"You two should communicate more. Don't always think that the other person knows or understands you. The other person is not a worm in your stomach. How can they really know everything and not make any mistakes?"

Jiang Chen humbly accepted the advice and said obediently: "I know, I will discuss it with him, and we will get married after the discussion is completed."

The discussion is fake, waiting for Lu Chiyuan to recover his memory is real.

Xia He didn't force the child and said, "Okay, but the clothes still need to be made. Handmade customization takes time."

"That's no problem." Jiang Chen didn't object. After thinking for a while, he approached Xia He and whispered, "Let's not talk about getting married first. Let's keep some suspense for my brother."

Xia He smiled lightly, thinking how could she possibly hide this from Lu Chiyuan? She laughed at the child's immaturity, but still went along with his wishes.

Jiang Chen secretly clenched his fists, very good, now no one will mention marriage.
