Chapter 161 You won’t be angry, will you?
Hearing this, Ye Jinmo raised her eyebrows slightly, her expression remained unchanged, and she didn't seem anxious at all.
Jiang Xiwen, on the other hand, smiled shyly, leaning on Ji Minghua, saying coquettishly, "Aunt Ji, what are you talking about? I just came back and I heard that Si Chen and classmate Ye are together. Si Chen and I have been good friends for so many years, how could I possibly interfere with his relationship?"
As she spoke, her tone was filled with a hint of disappointment: "I originally thought that Si Chen's partner must know medicine, so that they can take care of him and Grandma Ji. Student Ye is just the right person."
"Silly child, what nonsense are you talking about!" Ji Minghua frowned, seemingly blaming, but actually distressed, "Si Chen has remained single for so many years, don't you know the reason? If you hadn't gone abroad out of spite three years ago, would you have let someone else get there first?"
Hearing this, Ye Jinmo became interested.
Going abroad out of spite, getting there first?
It seemed like there was something she didn't know.
Facing her curious and inquiring eyes, Jiang Xiwen's eyes flashed with joy and his tone became much lighter.
"Didn't Si Chen tell you about this?"
Ye Jinmo shook her head and waited for her next words.
"Three years ago, I was working on a project with a senior, and someone filmed us. Si Chen might have misunderstood something, and we didn't explain to each other..."
Ye Jinmo understood.
Misunderstanding + going abroad.
Isn't this the classic Bai Yueguang method in the novel...
Ji Minghua sighed: "It's been three years since you left. During these three years, Si Chen has often talked about you... Come to think of it, why do I feel that Miss Ye is a bit like you?"
She suddenly stopped and her eyes moved between the two of them.
Jiang Xiwen frowned and her gaze fell on Ye Jinmo. In an instant, a complicated look appeared in her eyes.
There is surprise, regret, and more of nostalgia.
"Si Chen he... ah!"
What a meaningful sigh!
Ye Jinmo picked up the napkin and wiped her mouth. Her almond-shaped eyes rolled around and her face was full of questions.
"So, Dr. Jiang went abroad because of a misunderstanding with Brother Chen?"
“I guess so…”
"But judging from Brother Chen's temper, he doesn't seem like the type of person who can let a misunderstanding go on for so long."
This is true. Let’s not talk about anything else. Just regarding the scandal, Ji Sichen clarified it at an astonishing speed, and even climbed through the window to explain to her.
When it comes to people he cares about, misunderstandings don’t stay overnight. This is his nature.
Jiang Xiwen lowered his eyebrows and twitched his lips: "It's because I went abroad suddenly..."
Hearing this, Ye Jinmo smiled calmly: "Doctor Jiang is very famous in Country M. Even I can see you in the news reports. Not to mention that with Brother Chen's ability, it is very easy to find your address. The flight from the capital to Country M only takes more than ten hours. Such a small misunderstanding should not have dragged on for three years."
"unless……"
She didn't say anything more.
Unless there is no need to say more.
Either there is no misunderstanding at all, or someone simply doesn't bother to resolve this misunderstanding.
She picked up her schoolbag and slowly stood up.
"As for your appearance, Doctor Jiang, you are already very beautiful, there is no need to compare with me. Well, thank you for your hospitality today, Doctor Jiang, Aunt Ji, I have classes in the afternoon, so I will leave first!"
Looking at the girl's back as she left, Jiang Xiwen's body stiffened.
What did her last sentence mean?
What do you mean there is no need to compare with her?
Is the implication that he is mocking herself for not being as pretty as Ye Jinmo?
There was a feeling of air stuck in my throat, neither going up nor down, which was very uncomfortable.
What a sharp-tongued little girl!
Ji Minghua's face also looked unhappy. He glanced at the food on the table and an idea came to his mind.
"Xiwen, don't get angry with a child. You haven't seen Sichen since you came back, right? It's just noon now. Pack some food and send it to him. He must not have eaten yet!"
Jiang Xiwen looked embarrassed: "Is this appropriate?"
"What's inappropriate about this? You are his future wife, and it is your duty to care about him. Don't listen to the nonsense of the child. You and Si Chen grew up together. How can the affection of more than ten years be compared to her three-month whim?"
Hearing this, Jiang Xiwen nodded with a ruddy face: "Then I will listen to Aunt Ji, don't worry, as long as I can marry Si Chen, I will never forget you!"
Ji Minghua smiled, held her hand and rubbed it a few times: "Good girl!"

Ye Jinmo left the restaurant and casually sent the photo of the dining table she had just taken to Ji Sichen.
Caption: [It turns out that Brother Chen likes these. Thanks to Dr. Jiang, I now know this! 】
The other party quickly sent the address of Ji Group.
[I was in a meeting and took a taxi to the company.] 】
A smile spread across her face and she looked at the time. She should be in time.
The Ji family’s headquarters is in the imperial capital.
It was her first time here, and the endless tall buildings gave her a sense of oppression.
Seeing her come in, the receptionist smiled and said, "Miss, who are you looking for?"
"I'm looking for your CEO Ji."
"Sorry, you can't go up without an appointment."
She nodded: "Then I'll call him."
The blind ring sounded several times but no one answered.
He must be busy in a meeting.
"Why don't you wait in the lounge area? The president is in a meeting. I'll help you get in touch after the meeting is over!"
"good."
She obediently turned around and walked towards the rest area.
At this time, a murmurous sound came from behind.
"You want to hook up with the president at such a young age?"
"Tsk, you are still a minor at such a young age. What will happen to you when you grow up?"
The words became more and more unpleasant.
Ye Jinmo's face darkened, he stopped, turned around and looked at the front desk, smiling: "Is this how the front desk of Ji's company talks about guests for no reason?"
The cold tone startled the receptionist, and she forgot to refute for a moment.
At this time, there was a noise coming from the door.
The receptionist's eyes lit up: "Quick, quick, Miss Jiang is here!"
Ye Jinmo followed the line of sight and saw Jiang Xiwen walking in with a lunch box.
The bodyguard was very respectful.
"Student Ye, are you here to see Si Chen too?"
Ye Jinmo accurately captured the disgust in Jiang Xiwen's eyes.
"Then come up with me. You can't see Si Chen without an appointment. Aunt Ji just called the front desk!"
"Okay, then thank you, Dr. Jiang!" She ignored Jiang Xiwen's stiff expression and smiled sweetly at her.
As soon as they turned and walked towards the elevator, they heard discussions behind them.
"This must be the future young mistress of the Ji family! She's so elegant!"
"Don't talk nonsense, didn't President Ji clarify the news?"
"Oh, sometimes, clarification is also a form of protection. Dr. Jiang has just returned to China and needs to shine in her field. She can't live under the halo of President Ji, right? President Ji's clarification must be for her own good!"
"That makes sense. She and President Ji are a perfect match!"
…
After entering the elevator, Jiang Xiwen smiled apologetically: "The front desk was just talking nonsense. Maybe it's because I came to Ji's too many times before, so they made random guesses. You... won't be angry, right?"
