Yuan Mei's gaze was still fixed on the slender figure in the distance.
She didn't even notice Jiang Jingchu walking up to her.
"Ms. Yuan."
Jiang Jingchu called out several times, but Yuan Mei didn't respond. He followed her gaze and saw Qin Huan and Zhou Tiantian turning around and disappearing into the corner of the alley.
"What are you looking at so intently?"
Yuan Mei came to his senses.
"I just saw you talking to that guy. Why, is it someone you know?"
Jiang Jingchu said "Oh" and subconsciously did not say Qin Huan's name.
"You've never seen Han Xian's wife."
Yuan Mei secretly blamed himself for being too suspicious and walked towards the parking lot with Jiang Jingchu.
"I was just about to tell you this. Their wedding is coming up soon, right? I ordered a dress for Jingya here last time. Here, I came to pick it up today."
As she spoke, she stuffed the gift box bag in her hand into Jiang Jingchu's hand.
"Give this to Jingya tomorrow. On Han Xian's wedding day, she can wear this dress to the banquet with you."
When Jiang Jingchu heard this, he stopped in his tracks.
"My father should have reported to you that I have no plans to get married."
Yuan Mei frowned,
"What kind of report is that? It's so harsh."
"Your dad just said you don't want to get married for the time being. I was busy with work the past two days and didn't call you, so I came over today when I had some free time."
She said as she gathered the shawl on her shoulders,
"Xiaochu, if you don't want to get married for the time being, Mom won't force you, but you have to give yourself some time to come out, otherwise Mom won't be able to explain to your Aunt Ji."
“There’s no exact time.”
Jiang Jingchu raised his lips slightly, wanting to stop his mother from thinking of this directly, but when he remembered that he had promised Ji Jingya to give her two months, he swallowed the words back.
"If it wants to tie, it will tie naturally. Don't push it. It's useless to push it."
Yuan Mei was a little unhappy when he heard this.
"You can't just think about yourself. You have to think about Jingya. She's a girl. How many years of her youth can she waste on you?"
Jiang Jingchu tilted his head slightly and glanced at the people coming and going on the street.
"I've discussed this with Ji Jingya, and she agrees."
"She agreed? How is that possible!"
Yuan Mei looked incredulous.
"This child has always been understanding. Even if he agreed, it must have been because you forced him to do so!"
As he spoke, Yuan Mei took out his cell phone.
"I'm going to call Jingya right now. Come with me to see her. I want to ask her in person whether you bullied her or not!"
Jiang Jingchu was thinking about Qin Huan.
"If you want to go, go by yourself. I have something else to do."
…
Qin Huan sat in the passenger seat, staring out the window with unfocused eyes.
Zhou Tiantian next to him had been cursing all the way.
"What the hell! I thought Brother Jing really still had feelings for you, but it turns out he wanted to have two affairs at once, discussing marriage with Ji Jingya while flirting with you!"
"I'm so blind! He kissed you in front of so many people last night. I should have kicked him away."
Qin Huan finally reacted when she heard this and sneered.
"How dare you? You're the kind of person who usually doesn't even dare to say a word when you see him."
Zhou Tiantian raised her eyebrows uncomfortably.
"You know that's normal, but today he really pissed me off!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the phone in Qin Huan's hand suddenly rang.
She took a look and cut it off.
"Who is it?"
"The one who completely pissed you off."
Zhou Tiantian frowned.
"Jiang Jingchu? How dare he call you?"
Qin Huan shrugged.
"Who knows?"
The next second, the phone rang again, and Zhou Tiantian made a "tsk" sound.
"Are you done yet?! If you keep hitting me, I'm going to curse!"
Just as she finished speaking, Jiang Jingchu called for the third time. Qin Huan sighed impatiently, pressed the answer button, and put the phone to Zhou Tiantian's ear.
"Scold me, I'll satisfy you."
Zhou Tiantian didn't expect Qin Huan to be serious about it.
I glanced at the interface showing that I was on a call and became scared in an instant.
"Jing, Brother Jing, it's me, Zhou Tiantian."
Jiang Jingchu paused for two seconds, and a deep voice came through the receiver.
"Where's Qin Huanren? Let her answer the phone."
The tone was so intimidating that Zhou Tiantian couldn't help but panic for a second, then pretended to be calm.
"She doesn't want to take your call for now, please don't call her again."
Jiang Jingchu,
"I said, let her answer the phone."
Zhou Tiantian was waiting for the red light. Upon hearing this, she closed her eyes. After giving herself enough mental preparation, she opened them again with a heroic spirit of going all out.
"Brother Jing, can you be more sincere? You're about to get married, but you're still clinging to Qin Huan. Is that fun?"
Jiang Jingchu was stunned for two seconds, his tone grim.
"Who said I was getting married?"
Zhou Tiantian,
"Your mother."
After a pause, he felt like cursing and quickly added,
"Your mother said it herself just now in the tailor's shop."
Jiang Jingchu was steering the wheel. Hearing this, he touched his back teeth with the tip of his tongue.
"Where are you now? Tell me the address."
As soon as he finished speaking, there were several busy beeps from the receiver.
Qin Huan calmly took back the phone.
"Come on, go shopping with me."
Zhou Tiantian was worried that Qin Huan would be angry and have nowhere to vent, so she stepped on the accelerator and drove Qin Huan straight to the mall.
The two of them walked around, ate, and shopped along the way, and soon they had a lot of things in their hands.
We were just discussing whether to go to a nearby coffee shop for a drink.
Suddenly, there was a sound of hurried running behind her. Qin Huan turned around and saw a man wearing a baseball cap, holding a bag and running towards her in a panic.
Not far away, a woman holding a child shouted loudly.
"Come on, catch the thief!"
At that time, the man just ran to Qin Huan. Qin Huan didn't have time to think about anything. In a flash, she threw all the packaging bags in her hand at the man.
While the man was in a panic, she grabbed the bag in his hand and pulled it out.
"You're looking for death!"
The man in the baseball cap glared at someone trying to snatch his bag.
He took out a switchblade from his hand at some point and flicked the sharp blade towards Qin Huan.
Just as he was about to swing at Qin Huan's hand holding the bag, he was suddenly kicked in the back. He staggered a few steps and fell to the ground in a mess.
Then, a man in a windbreaker stepped on the back of the man in the baseball cap with a cynical tone.
"Robbing a mall in broad daylight? I think you're tired of living."
At this time, the mall security also arrived and subdued the man in the baseball cap.
The scene was a little chaotic for a while.
After Qin Huan returned the bag to the woman with the child, she remembered the things on the ground.
They were all newly bought clothes, dropped on the ground, and some of them were stepped on and dirty.
While helping Qin Huan pick up the things, Zhou Tiantian touched her chest with lingering fear.
"Huan'er, that was too dangerous. He was holding a knife. Aren't you afraid he'd hurt you?"
"I didn't think too much about it. Besides, this is a shopping mall with so many people. He was just trying to scare people. He wouldn't dare to actually attack me."
Qin Huan said this just to comfort Zhou Tiantian. In fact, if the man in the windbreaker had not taken action, the switchblade of the man in the baseball cap might have really hit her.
Zhou Tiantian was quite frightened.
"Anyway, next time you encounter something like this, stay away from it."
Qin Huan knew that she was also concerned about her, so she pulled her hand.
"Got it. Let's go. I'll buy you some coffee."
The two went to the coffee shop and were just about to find a place to sit down.
Qin Huan saw a familiar face at first glance.
He walked forward and shouted,
"Mrs. Liu."
Cheng Shuyun didn't expect to meet Qin Huan here, and a hint of joy flashed in her eyes.
"Xiao Huan, how come I meet you here? What a coincidence."
Qin Huan smiled.
"I came here with friends to go shopping. We were tired and wanted to have a drink."
"That's perfect. Ask your friend to come over and we can hang out together. I'm bored."
Qin Huan glanced at the chair opposite her and saw that it was indeed empty.
"Are you alone?"
Cheng Shuyun smiled.
"I'm the only one here for now. Hey, why don't you call your friends over? It's more fun when there are more people."
After Qin Huan called Zhou Tiantian over, Cheng Shuyun blinked at Qin Huan.
"It's really fate. Didn't I say last time that I would introduce my nephew to you? He just returned home today and made an appointment with me here. I didn't expect to run into you by such a coincidence."
