0115 Counterattack
Just before lunchtime, Jiang Jifan suddenly received a call from an unfamiliar number.
She looked at the location listed above, hesitated for a moment, and finally answered the call.
"Hello."
"Hello, Ms. Jiang."
A gentle voice came from the phone.
Jiang Jifan asked in confusion, "Hello, may I ask who you are?"
"I am Tai-Ching's mother. Ms. Jiang, if it's convenient for you later, could we meet?"
"Hello, welcome."
Unexpectedly, she was quite considerate, specifically choosing a coffee shop near the company as the meeting place. Jiang Jifan was quite familiar with this coffee shop, so he shook his head and declined the waiter's service, choosing to find the place himself.
Finally, she found the other person at a table by the window on the left.
The woman sitting at the square table wore a classic jasmine-colored cheongsam, which seemed out of place in the Western-style decor of the coffee shop.
Jiang Jifan's gaze fell on her face. The other woman's face still showed some traces of time, but because she took good care of herself, she looked to be only in her early forties. She was a gentle-looking, extremely elegant and noble woman.
The other party was clearly prepared and had even calculated my lunch break time.
Jiang Jifan pursed his lips, suppressing his suspicions, and headed straight for it.
"Hello, Auntie."
Dong Lijun looked up and saw a woman with a graceful figure sitting opposite her.
Although I had seen her face in photos before, it was nothing compared to the impact of seeing her in person up close.
The woman before him possessed a radiant beauty, with fair skin, red lips, and an impeccable face. Every gesture she made subtly revealed a myriad of charms. Even Dong Lijun, who was accustomed to seeing many beauties, had to admit that she truly had the potential to captivate hearts.
“Miss Jiang, I apologize for bothering you.” She smiled slightly. “The main reason I came to see you today is because of Tai Qing.”
"As far as I know, you and Taiqing have been dating for more than half a year, so you must know more or less about Taiqing's family background..."
She was indeed a lady from a high-class family; she spoke elegantly and reservedly, just like Tantai Qing when I first met her.
Jiang Jifan didn't mind and listened quietly to what she had to say.
"Perhaps Taiqing hasn't told you, but our family has high requirements for his future wife. Taiqing's father and I hope that his future wife will be a girl who is a good match for him and can walk alongside him."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Jifan understood completely, raised an eyebrow, and nodded.
Seeing that she seemed to understand, Dong Lijun breathed a sigh of relief and then continued to smile, "Miss Jiang, you are a smart person and should know why I came to see you today."
Jiang Jifan chuckled softly upon hearing this, raised his eyes to meet her gaze, his expression neither humble nor arrogant, showing no fear, and calmly said, "I'm sorry, Auntie, I don't know the purpose of your visit. So it's better if you just say what you mean."
Dong Lijun's expression froze. She hadn't expected her to act so unpredictably, showing a tendency to be stubborn and not respond to gentle persuasion.
She pondered for a moment, then decided to stop pretending and said bluntly, "Miss Jiang, since that's the case, I'll be frank. I don't think you and Tai Qing are a good match, and I hope you can end this relationship with him as soon as possible."
Sure enough, although he had anticipated her intentions, Jiang Jifan still couldn't help but feel that it was ridiculous and absurd when he actually heard it with his own ears.
The idol drama plots that I used to laugh at have actually happened to me one day.
“I’m sorry, Auntie, I don’t know what caused you to have some misconceptions. I never thought about having a further relationship with Taiqing.”
"Moreover, Taiqing is already an adult. He has his own independent personality and thoughts. I believe he will make his own judgment about my relationship with him."
The implication was that their relationship was none of her business.
Jiang Jifan made no attempt to hide his arrogance and disdain, and said leisurely, "If Tai Qing doesn't even have the determination to stay with me, I will end this relationship myself without you having to tell me."
Upon hearing these words, a look of shock visibly appeared on Dong Lijun's face.
In her view, her son should be the one in control of the relationship, but the woman in front of her, so high and mighty, so confident and assertive, made her have the first time in her life that she had such a shocking doubt.
She originally thought she was just a "confidante" raised by her son, but it seems that things are not quite as she imagined.
No, not just some, they are completely different.
This was the first time Dong Lijun had encountered someone like this; she seemed to have no weaknesses, making it difficult to know where to begin.
Seeing that she remained silent, Jiang Jifan felt there was no need to continue the conversation. He glanced at his watch and said, "Auntie, it's almost time for me to go to work. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."
After saying that, he immediately called the waiter over to settle the bill.
Goodbye, Auntie.
After paying the bill, she calmly picked up her bag and left.
Dong Lijun watched her departing figure, frowned angrily, and sighed in frustration, thinking about the goal she had failed to achieve today.
