Chapter 267 Don’t you miss me?
Chen Qing pulled his hand down, his eyes red, "Is it okay for you to come over like this?"
"No problem." Jiang Jingyan leaned down, his trousers wrinkled, showing a few strong and smooth lines. "Don't you miss me?"
Chen Qing didn't say anything, but held his hands under the table, squeezing them harder and harder.
Boss Song on the left could see the relationship between the two, but since Jiang Jingyan didn't give a clear introduction, he didn't intend to say anything more.
If a person like this doesn't mention it actively, it means she is not an open woman, so why should he make himself unhappy?
"Mr. Jiang, how many days will you stay this time?" Boss Song picked up the wine dispenser and poured wine attentively. "I can make arrangements for you."
Jiang Jingyan dragged Chen Qing closer, along with the chair, and said, "Don't wait any longer, Boss Song, you're welcome. I have something else to trouble you with."
He freed his left hand to hold the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. "Li Xiangli entrusted his daughter to you, didn't he?"
Chen Qingxin started to shudder and looked up.
Boss Song looked embarrassed and sat down, mumbling, "Haven't you already found Brother Li and his wife? No matter what happened, it has nothing to do with the child..."
"Boss Song, you've misunderstood." Jiang Jingyan patted the back of Chen Qing's hand, pulled out his right hand, and laid it across the back of her chair, his manner lazy and uninhibited. "It's inevitably inconvenient for you to take care of Li Xiangli's daughter, and it's too conspicuous. Hiding her from everyone is also strange. My mother just sent a charity team to perform here. It's better to have her with a group of students than a group of grown men."
Boss Song glanced at Chen Qing and winked, "I see. I heard from the village chief that there was a school going to the countryside to do charity work. It turned out that it was you who arranged it."
Chen Qing's mind was not here. She had a good relationship with Li Xiangli's daughter before. They were both young when the accident happened. She blamed Li Xiangli for being ungrateful and disloyal, but not for his daughter.
We met suddenly and I didn’t know what to say.
"She changed her name and is now Qiu Anning." Jiang Jingyan whispered in her ear, his warm breath mixed with the strong aroma of liquor. "Li Xiangli left a backup plan. He gave Wan Lihong half of the evidence. The recording with the music store owner is empty. Guess who has the other half?"
Chen Qing looked at him and understood.
Li Xiangli knew that one day his crime would be exposed, and he would either be caught or fall into the hands of Meng Hongwen. No matter what the outcome, he would need an unexpected rescuer.
Keeping the evidence with his daughter is another way of protecting her.
Qiu Anning, seek peace.
Li Xiangli and his family of three probably haven't had an easy time in recent years.
Halfway through the meal, Boss Song received a phone call and left the table. Master Xiao asked the waiter to pack up a portion of lychees and cherry tomatoes.
"Sister Meng likes sour food recently." Young Master Xiao, despite still wearing the same playboy look, had added a touch of sophistication. He raised an eyebrow at Chen Qing and said, "Jingyan, you don't need me to accompany you tonight, do you?"
When talking about Youmeng, Chen Qing couldn't help but feel nervous.
When she went to the hospital in the morning, You Meng found a 'passerby' for her, who followed her closely and switched the urine and blood sent for testing with that person's, so that she was able to get away with it.
Fortunately, Yan Baiqing was worried about what students might say, so he didn't arrange any other examinations. Otherwise, everything would be exposed once he entered the obstetrics and gynecology department.
Jiang Jingyan ignored Tang Xiaoming's teasing, half-circled Chen Qing, and told her hesitantly, "I'll go back tonight."
She came back to her senses, looking dejected, "Can't you wait until tomorrow?"
Jiang Jingyan stared at her with a smile in his eyes, which made her shy. Her neck and cheeks were on fire and turned pink.
Chen Qing pushed him away and made up an excuse, "I'm just worried that it's too late and the road is unsafe."
"What's unsafe about that?" Tang Xiaoming crossed his legs and teased, "He's a man in his forties, and besides being calm, he has no other advantages. What could possibly go wrong?"
Chen Qing chuckled and turned to look at Jiang Jingyan.
After the two of them got together, he was averse to others mentioning their age, especially Tang Xiaoming. If it were someone else, he would definitely get angry.
"I'm almost 40, how about you?" Jiang Jingyan piled a mountain of things on the small plate in front of Chen Qing without even raising his eyelids. "You're not much younger than me, and even your greasy hair and powdered face can't hide the old-fashioned air, yet you still act like an innocent boy."
Tang Xiaoming, who was an idol, raised his arm and sniffed, "Nonsense, my perfume is a limited edition..."
Chen Qing listened to the two people bickering. She was in a good mood and had a good appetite. She ate most of the food that Jiang Jingyan gave her.
Jiang Jingyan concentrated on smoothing her ponytail, as if it were a piece of black silk slipping through his palm. "I didn't tell Boss Song about your identity. He has a close relationship with Li Xiangli's family. If he intends to protect you, it will be bad for you."
Chen Qing's cheeks puffed up and he hummed.
"I heard you had a physical examination today?"
She swallowed it whole and lowered her eyelids. "You know all this."
"Daliang will be here in the morning. I'm not here, so he'll be here to watch over you."
Chen Qing took out a tissue and wiped the corner of her lips. Fortunately, she did not meet You Meng directly today, otherwise Daliang would definitely have reported it.
Jiang Jingyan's gaze focused on the corners of her eyes.
When Chen Qing was uneasy or lying, her eyelashes would tremble constantly and a small red spot would appear at the corner of her eye. The former might be controllable, but the latter was a physiological reaction and could not be controlled.
He raised his hand and touched it, his face gloomy.
Suddenly, the cell phone on the table rang. Chen Qing didn't see the caller ID, so he picked it up, answered the call for two or three minutes, and then hung up.
"So Yan Baiqing is here too."
Chen Qing looked at him and nodded without hiding anything, "Looking for me."
"If I don't ask, are you going to tell me?" Jiang Jing said in a displeased tone. He threw out the cigarette box and held a cigarette to his lips.
Tang Xiaoming saw his horrified expression, coughed and walked out.
Chen Qing sighed lightly and placed her hand on the back of his hand. "I'm not telling you because I know you'll abandon the city. We can't delay those things."
The man's chest swelled high, then dropped heavily, and a stream of air like magma spurted out of his nostrils.
After a moment, he put one arm around her waist and forced himself to suppress his anger.
"He came to me and didn't say anything." Chen Qing paused. "I suspect he's in trouble now. The problems with Huangjia International aren't what's so overwhelming. It's probably about Meng Hongwen and his mother."
Jiang Jingyan frowned.
Without waiting for him to speak, Chen Qing continued his analysis. "Yan Baiqing and Meng Hongwen's relationship is precarious. They're just temporarily using each other to maintain a semblance of peace. His only weakness is his mother. I can see that he has long harbored resentment towards Meng Hongwen. If my guess is correct, he's probably preparing to deliver the final blow to Meng Hongwen, but... I haven't discovered his plan yet."
Jiang Jingyan bit the cigarette butt and spat out the tobacco. "You don't know, but I do." He took her hand and stood up. "I'm not leaving tonight."
Chen Qing was anxious and hit his shoulder, "No——"
Tang Xiaoming was leaning against the escalator in the corridor and making a phone call. When he saw the two people coming out, he hung up in a hurry.
"Send Qing'er back to the hotel."
He was stunned. "Me?"
Jiang Jingyan's expression was stern. He took Chen Qing downstairs and entrusted him to Tang Xiaoming. "I will stay here tonight to keep an eye on Yan Baiqing. I will leave when he comes back."
Chen Qing's heart was pounding. "Are you alone? He has helpers around him!"
Jiang Jingyan touched her lips with his fingertips, and a wildness burst out from his whole body. As night fell, he was far superior to this heavy silence.
