Ji Chen seemed to see Jiang Xue, the powerful woman at the door, and he pushed away Huang Yinyin, who was limply leaning against him.
He jogged to the door and said, "Where have you been? I've been looking for you everywhere!"
Jiang Xue remained expressionless and coldly said, "Then I'm sorry, if it's hard to find, don't look for it next time."
Ji Chen sensed the tension in Jiang Xue's voice and stepped forward to grab her, asking, "What's wrong? Have you eaten?"
Seeing that President Wang was coming downstairs, Jiang Xue shook off Ji Chen and went up to greet him.
"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long." Mr. Wang was still smiling and very polite.
Jiang Xue was very polite, "I didn't wait long, I just arrived. It's better to arrive at the right time than at the right time, since you have time."
Jiang Xue was so engrossed in exchanging pleasantries with President Wang that Ji Chen, who was being ignored by her, was quite puzzled.
Jiang Xue seems to have become a completely different person; she's ignoring him.
Before he could even sort out his thoughts, Huang Yinyin pounced on him again, "Ji Chen, let's go to my house and get the books, then we can read them together."
Seeing Huang Yinyin's expression, Gu Xiaoling felt terrible. She glared at Huang Yinyin angrily, but before she could finish her poem, Jiang Xue called out to her.
"Let's go." Jiang Xue had already gotten into the passenger seat of President Wang's car.
Gu Xiaoling had no choice but to follow behind.
All the students ran out to see what was going on, but when they saw Jiang Xue, she seemed to be completely different from what they had imagined. Instead, she was a shrewd, modern woman with a resolute and courageous gaze. Instantly, they all felt that Ji Chen was not good enough for her.
Some of the more tipsy classmates teased Ji Chen, "You're quite the ladies' man, aren't you? You've snagged all the good-looking ones."
Ji Chen had completely lost his mind and pushed Huang Yinyin onto the classmate next to him, saying, "I have something to do, I'll go first."
Seeing that Ji Chen had left, Huang Yinyin stopped pretending and immediately came to her senses, breaking free from the male classmate who was hugging her.
Ji Chen arrived at Jiang Xue's shop and saw Aunt Zhou making wontons. "Did Jiang Xue say anything when she came back today?"
Aunt Zhou didn't want to ruin their relationship, so she said something positive: "No, he just came back to prepare some things. He said he's going to discuss an order this afternoon."
Ji Chen was relieved. "If Jiang Xue comes back, tell her that I might not be going home tonight. I have some things to do today."
"Alright, go ahead and get busy." Aunt Zhou smiled very politely.
Ji Chen thought it best to finish the tender document overnight and check it several times. If there was any data error, there would still be time to make corrections. With this in mind, he returned to his company without lingering.
Jiang Xue, who was in Mr. Wang's car, seemed to be doing nothing, but she was actually very sensitive.
Children who grow up in orphanages lack a sense of security the most. Without the protection of their parents, they grow up wildly on their own. Whenever they encounter anything that could hurt them, they will choose to hide in their own little world.
He closed his heart, focusing only on his career and refusing to talk about love. He considered everything as a waste, abandoning his two children. Why make things difficult for himself? He owed Ji Chen the initial funding that had caused the problem.
She wouldn't call herself rich now, but repaying that initial investment is a piece of cake for her.
She could also afford the land for the factory, which made her feel somewhat relieved. Indeed, money could give her confidence.
