"President Jiang." Lu Jiming walked up to Jiang Chengxi without any politeness, his face full of arrogance, and said, "You've been running into obstacles for so long, and you still haven't given up?"
Jiang Chengxi: "..."
How is he supposed to respond to that?
“Jiang Li will absolutely not return to your Jiang family. Don’t you realize that yet?” Lu Jiming didn’t give Jiang Chengxi a chance to speak and said another harsh truth.
Jiang Chengxi lowered his eyes, concealing the melancholy within them. "I know."
"Since you know that, why do you always come to Jiang Li and make a fool of yourself?" Lu Jiming asked, puzzled.
"We should bear the consequences of the mistakes we made back then," Jiang Chengxi said calmly. "But no matter what, Jiang Li is still my sister. Even if she doesn't want to acknowledge me, it's still okay for me to come and see her on such an important day, isn't it?"
Even though she couldn't attend her graduation ceremony as a family member.
But I came to take a look...
It was also a token of his goodwill.
Lu Jiming couldn't quite understand Jiang Chengxi's thoughts, but in his own mind, he felt...
Belated affection is worth less than grass.
But that's their business. Jiang Li didn't even chase him away, so he has no right to say anything more.
Saying just a couple of words was his limit.
Jiang Li finally broke free from her lingering attachment to Lu Shiyan, and at that moment she also saw Jiang Chengxi not far away.
Jiang Li nodded at Jiang Chengxi.
Jiang Chengxi walked over and handed Jiang Li a bouquet of flowers.
He carefully selected each flower.
Jiang Li, unusually, did not refuse. She reached out and took it, smiling and thanking her, "Thank you."
Jiang Chengxi was somewhat surprised that Jiang Li accepted his flowers and treated him so kindly. He was flattered and shook his head repeatedly.
Jiang Li's attitude towards him became more friendly, does that mean he can try harder?
In that case...
Maybe one day they can restore their relationship to that of family?
“President Jiang…” Lu Shiyan looked at Jiang Chengxi, who was completely oblivious to him and was lost in his own thoughts, and said speechlessly, “What are you thinking about? Wake up… it’s not dark yet.”
Jiang Chengxi: "..."
"President Lu, you're back from abroad?" Jiang Chengxi snapped out of his daze and finally looked at Lu Shiyan directly, his tone strange and a little sour, "I originally thought that President Lu would never come back in this lifetime, but I didn't expect... that you would actually come back at this critical moment."
Steal his thunder!
If Lu Shiyan hadn't come back, would Jiang Li's attitude towards him have been any better?
What Jiang Chengxi didn't know was that if Lu Shiyan hadn't woken up, Jiang Li definitely wouldn't have been in the mood to pay attention to him.
Now that Lu Shiyan has woken up, Jiang Li felt the joy of something lost and then regained, and naturally became more friendly towards others.
As for whether it will continue to be given in the future...
Then let it be.
Lu Shiyan smiled slightly and said something that stung Jiang Chengxi: "Of course, after all, I was waiting for Jiang Jiang to graduate. Before she graduated, she had to focus on her studies, and I could take the opportunity to develop the company's overseas business. Now that Jiang Jiang has graduated, I have to come back, right?"
These words sent alarm bells ringing in Jiang Chengxi's mind. "What...what do you mean?"
"What do you think?" Lu Shiyan gave a meaningful smile.
Jiang Chengxi's expression changed slightly. "If you don't explain it clearly, how can I fully understand?"
But he hoped it wasn't what he thought.
“It’s getting late, we should go have lunch.” Lu Shiyan glanced at Jiang Chengxi again. “Mr. Jiang must have a lot of things to do, right? Then we won’t bother you any longer.”
Jiang Chengxi narrowed his eyes and said, word by word, "How can a small company like ours compare to Lu's? If President Lu has time to have lunch with Jiang Li, how could I not have that time?"
As he spoke, Jiang Chengxi looked at Jiang Li and asked, "You don't mind having me too, do you?"
Before Jiang Li could speak, Jiang Chengxi continued, "It's been a long time since I've seen President Lu. Consider this meal my way of welcoming him back..."
Just as Lu Shiyan was about to refuse, Jiang Li grabbed his hand.
The words that were about to come out were swallowed back by Lu Shiyan, and what came out was...
"Since Mr. Jiang is so enthusiastic, we will naturally not refuse. However, Mr. Jiang should also know that we are very picky about food and we don't go to just any place."
Didn't you want to treat us?
Since he's being offered a free meal, wouldn't it be unfair to him if he didn't take advantage of it?
Although this amount of money was nothing to Jiang Chengxi, Lu Shiyan still said it in a childish way.
Jiang Chengxi smiled slightly, "Don't worry, President Lu, I know how to handle this."
He had already booked the restaurant long before.
Although he knew Jiang Li might not accept his dinner invitation, what if she did?
It would be best if Jiang Li agreed, but if she didn't, he could still go and eat it himself.
I'm worried that if I haven't booked a restaurant yet, and Jiang Li agrees to have dinner with me, but I haven't prepared anything, then it would be awkward, wouldn't it?
See...
If you are well prepared, there will always be a time when you need to use it.
So the four of them went to the restaurant that Jiang Chengxi had booked.
Lu Jiming and Jiang Li both walk to school because the distance is so short.
Lu Shiyan, fearing he would be late, drove over.
So Lu Jiming was forced into Jiang Chengxi's car.
Lu Shiyan and Jiang Li got into the same car.
Lu Jiming: "..."
Jiang Chengxi: "..."
Although the reasons were different, it must be said that both of them were very depressed.
After getting into the car, neither of them spoke to the other, and the car was eerily quiet.
As for Jiang Li and Lu Shiyan...
For a moment, neither of them spoke.
It seems like I have so much to say, but when the words are on the tip of my tongue, I don't know how to begin.
"Jiang Jiang..." As if remembering something, Lu Shiyan suddenly found a topic, "Where is your little pet?"
Jiang Li: "..."
If Fu Ying heard you say that, she would want to bite you to death!
However, thinking about Fu Ying's matter also gave Jiang Li a headache.
Something must have happened between Fuying and her third senior brother...
Right now, one person is chasing while a zombie is hiding.
However, Jiang Li had no intention of getting involved in the affairs of these two people.
after all……
When it comes to matters of the heart...
Even if others get involved, they can't get involved.
She just couldn't understand it...
Those two people...
How could it suddenly be like this...?
Jiang Li couldn't understand for a long time how things had suddenly turned out this way between the two of them.
After all, although there were some dodges before, it was still relatively normal.
Of course, it's also possible that her attention wasn't on those things at all; she had so many things to do every day that she missed some things...
But now that she's in the mood, she can't control herself anymore.
Other people's business should be handled by themselves.
"Why did you suddenly ask about Fu Ying?" Jiang Li didn't know what to say, so she asked in return.
Lu Shiyan's tone was quite matter-of-fact, "Isn't this going to make Jiang Chengxi suffer? If we're going to make him suffer, we should make him suffer big. If she's here, she'll definitely make Jiang Chengxi feel sorry for her."
Jiang Li: "..."
Very good, that's a strong reason.
There's simply nothing to say in rebuttal.
