Qin Huan had her back to Jiang Jingchu the whole time, worried that she looked bad, so she tried to calm herself down, smiled, turned around, and said, "Oh."
"I remembered I needed to do something here, so I didn't bother Mr. Jiang to go around and take me back to the company. What's wrong?"
Jiang Jingchu originally thought that Qin Huan would be somewhat concerned when she heard him talking to Ji Jingya, but he didn't expect that she didn't feel anything at all and was even a little happy. What was going on?
I was choked for a moment and bit my back teeth hard.
"It's okay, you can get off."
Qin Huan nodded, but her eyes pointed at Jiang Jingchu holding her hand, and she smiled.
"Boss Jiang, I can't get off unless you let go."
Jiang Jingchu realized it then, raised his eyebrows slightly, and slowly opened his fingers.
Qin Huan pushed the door open and got out of the car. When she put her hand on the door frame, she remembered something and turned her head to Jiang Jingchu with a bright smile.
"Boss Jiang, don't forget what you promised. When the time comes, just go directly to the company and talk to Director Fang."
Jiang Jingchu watched Qin Huan get out of the car and leave resolutely without looking back, and licked his back teeth with the tip of his tongue.
"Gao Fei."
Gao Fei was daydreaming when he suddenly heard Jiang Jingchu calling him, and his whole body tensed up immediately.
"Boss Jiang, what do you want?"
Jiang Jingchu frowned slightly, resting his fingers on his knees, tapping them occasionally.
"Tell me, if a man chats with another woman in front of her and she listens without any reaction and even seems to laugh, does that mean the woman really has no feelings for the man at all?"
Gao Fei didn't expect Jiang Jingchu to ask him this, and he thought about it carefully.
"Normally, a woman would have absolutely no interest in a man in this situation."
Jiang Jingchu paused tapping his knees, and his face darkened instantly.
Gao Fei noticed it and continued quickly.
"Of course, there are exceptions."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Jingchu glared at Gao Fei coldly, with an expression that said, "You'd better talk to me nicely."
Gao Fei smiled awkwardly.
"If Mr. Jiang is referring to Miss Qin's reaction after hearing your conversation with Miss Ji, then I personally think that Miss Qin may not be as calm as she appears."
"Oh? Tell me more about it."
Seeing Jiang Jingchu's obviously relaxed expression, Gao Fei felt that he had flattered him correctly this time.
"I don't know much about Miss Qin, but my impression is that you've always been rather cold the few times we've met, and sometimes even spoke awkwardly. But Mr. Jiang, did you notice that just now, before Miss Qin got out of the car, she was very polite to you and even smiled the whole time."
A word can wake a person up from his dream.
After listening to Gao Fei's analysis, Jiang Jingchu carefully recalled the situation when he had just parted with Qin Huan, and seemed to have figured out a little bit of the clue.
The smile on his face gradually deepened.
Gao Fei saw this and took advantage of the opportunity.
"Mr. Jiang, you told me before that you wanted me to go to the countryside to do charity work..."
Jiang Jingchu squinted his eyes at Gao Fei, slowly closed them, and leaned back in his chair.
"I'll spare you for now and see how you perform later."
Gao Fei's heart suddenly went off with fireworks.
He seemed to have found the secret to making his boss happy.
Jiang Jingchu went to pick up Ji Jingya first in the evening before going to meet up with Ms. Yuan Mei.
Ms. Yuan Mei arrived at the restaurant a few minutes earlier than them. After sitting down and taking two sips of tea, she saw Jiang Jingchu and Ji Jingya walking towards her side by side.
From a distance, Jiang Jingchu was tall and handsome, while Ji Jingya was graceful and elegant. The more Yuan Mei looked at them, the more satisfied she felt, and she couldn't suppress the smile on her lips.
As soon as Ji Jingya came closer, he affectionately pulled her to sit next to him.
"Jingya, come and sit next to mom."
A hint of shyness appeared on Ji Jingya's face. She glanced at Jiang Jingchu and continued to speak reservedly.
"Auntie, Jingchu and I just got engaged, it's a bit inappropriate to call you that."
Yuan Mei held her hand, the smile on his face still lingering.
"There's nothing inappropriate about it. It's just a matter of time."
Jiang Jingchu raised his eyebrows slightly, pulled out a chair, sat down casually, and poured a cup of tea for himself and Ji Jingya.
"Mom, is your son really that bad? You're so anxious to send him out. Aren't you afraid of scaring others?"
Yuan Mei glared at Jiang Jingchu angrily.
"Is Jingya someone else? She's my future daughter-in-law. You're busy all day and not in a hurry. Otherwise, if you had gotten the marriage certificate and held the wedding earlier, wouldn't Jingya have been able to change her mind legitimately?"
Jiang Jingchu curled his lips and smiled, frivolous and casual.
"Why rush? I'll let you know when the time comes. Just prepare the money to change your story."
Yuan Mei knew that her son always had his own ideas. When she divorced Jiang's father and left alone to go to another place, Jiang Jingchu resented her for many years.
Later, when they grew older, their relationship as mother and son eased.
She had previously arranged for him to go on a blind date with Ji Jingya, and she was already surprised that Jiang Jingchu agreed and tried to get along with her. Now she didn't dare to push him too hard, for fear that it would backfire.
"Don't worry about the compensation for changing your statement. I've already prepared it."
Yuan Mei said this, taking the initiative to change the subject.
"I heard that you have started decorating your new house?"
Ji Jingya nodded,
"Still choosing a design company."
"Still choosing? Didn't you mention earlier that you had a designer you liked?"
Ji Jingya raised her eyes to glance at Jiang Jingchu and said softly,
"I do have a favorite, but Jingchu isn't entirely satisfied with the proposal of one of the designers, a woman named Qin. So, we might have to make a new choice."
"A designer named Qin?"
When Yuan Mei suddenly heard this surname, his heart skipped a beat. He observed Jiang Jingchu's expression and saw that there was nothing wrong. But then he felt that he was being a little too paranoid.
Ji Jingya nodded,
"Yes, actually I quite like Designer Qin's design style, but since Jing Chu doesn't like it, forget it."
Jiang Jingchu was about to tell Ji Jingya this, so he took a sip of tea and spoke slowly.
"I don't like it very much, but Designer Song's proposal is pretty good. I can ask her to come up with an improved version later. You can take a look at it."
A hint of surprise flashed across Ji Jingya's beautiful eyes.
"So, you still agree to choose that design company?"
Jiang Jingchu nodded.
"You like it, don't you? I can't generalize."
Yuan Mei roughly understood the situation, and seeing the two of them discussing something, he nodded.
"Since it's a wedding house, of course it should be comfortable for both of you. You can decide for yourself."
Ji Jingya said "hmm".
Thinking back to that day at the design company, Jiang Jingchu's face was obviously so ugly, but within just two days, he changed his mind. Could it be that something happened that I didn't know about?
Ji Jingya was only suspicious for a moment, but she didn't think much about it.
After the meal, the lights came on and the bustling and magnificent night in the city had just begun.
Before leaving, Yuan Mei gave two concert tickets to Jiang Jingchu and Ji Jingya, under the pretext of letting them cultivate their relationship.
After Yuan Mei left, Jiang Jingchu gave the other ticket in his hand to Ji Jingya.
"I have something else to do later, please find someone else to go with you."
A trace of disappointment flashed across Ji Jingya's face, but she quickly concealed it, and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"You're so quick to destroy the bridge after crossing it. Auntie's car hasn't even gone far yet."
Jiang Jingchu didn't comment and sent Ji Jingya to the car. He then told the driver the address in person, closed the door, stepped back a few steps, and watched the car leave.
Gao Fei then drove over in the Cullinan.
After Jiang Jingchu got into the car, he pressed his eyebrows tiredly.
"Boss Jiang, where are we going now?"
Jiang Jingchu pondered for a moment, remembering what Gao Fei had said during the day that Qin Huan might be jealous of him, and he couldn't help but want to confirm it.
"Go to Qin Huan's house."
On the way, he sent a message to Han Xian, which was concise and to the point.
"Send Qin Huan's WeChat to me."
Han Xian was playing cards with Xiangdong and the others. When he saw the message, he sighed.
Xiangdong, "What's going on? Are you arguing with Zhou Tiantian again?"
Han Xian made a "tsk" sound and threw the phone in front of him.
"Can't you just hope for the best for your brother?"
Xiangdong had just asked casually, but after reading the message Jiang Jingchu sent to Han Xian, his brows furrowed.
"Brother Jing, do you think that failing once isn't enough?"
Han Xian shrugged.
"Who knows? He's a rare infatuated person."
Xiangdong shook his head and chuckled.
"Let's not even talk about Brother Jing's background. Just look at that infuriatingly handsome face of his. He can get any woman he wants, but he has to go against Qin Huan. He's really just a blunt knife breaking bamboo. He's so stubborn."
