Chapter 190 Declaration of War
"Did he give it to you?"
“It seems…”
Jiang Jingyan gritted his teeth and threw it on the passenger seat, "What am I giving you this for?"
Chen Qing felt hot and dry all over, and his short-sleeved shirt stuck to his skin, making him uncomfortable. He bent over to lower the car window, but after struggling for a long time, he couldn't find the right position.
"Jiang Jingyan..." She raised her eyes from bottom to top, her eyes were watery and misty.
The wind was chilly in the early autumn night. The moment he rushed in, the man held her in his arms, blocking out half of the cold.
Chen Qing snuggled into his chest and sighed with satisfaction.
Liang Jing came over at this time, stopped beside the car, and watched silently.
Lian Zhuo hesitated to speak, raised his hand, and then put it down.
Jiang Jingyan placed his hands behind Chen Qing's head and raised his eyelids indifferently, "What's wrong?"
"I'll bring you your coat."
"This little thing is worth Secretary Liang's trip, Lian Zhuo."
Lian Zhuo accepted the order and took it from Liang Jing.
Liang Jing stood there, "She's not feeling well?"
"I was disobedient and drank some wine."
Chen Qing heard someone talking and tried hard to open his eyes, but his whole face was buried in Jiang Jingyan's arms and he couldn't see clearly.
She leaned back, only to be pulled back.
Jiang Jingyan lowered his head and hushed her soothingly, stroking her back again and again.
After Chen Qing calmed down, he turned around and asked, "Anything else?"
Liang Jing's throat became very dry as she watched this scene. She had imagined Jiang Jingyan in love. Not only her, but all the girls in the dormitory had imagined it, except that she was the heroine at that time.
"I heard something." She said in a low voice.
Lian Zhuo frowned at the side. Why was Secretary Liang so stubborn? Did he have to ask in person before he felt at ease?
"Is it related to me?"
"It's about your future wife."
Jiang Jingyan looked at her, "What."
At this moment, Liang Jing was unwilling to speak. She pondered, "Someone has ulterior motives and is spreading rumors during the school anniversary celebration. It's not pleasant to hear. You have to be careful."
"Thank you very much."
"I'm going back first."
"Wait." Jiang Jingyan pushed open the car door, "Help me hold her."
Liang Jing stepped forward hesitantly, holding Chen Qing under his arm, and couldn't help but teasing, "I'm the great Secretary Liang, and I'm helping you take care of your wife?"
"Lian Zhuo is a man, it's not convenient."
She was silent.
Jiang Jingyan pulled Chen Qing's legs together to the other side. During this time, she was restless and waved her arms, hitting his right cheek.
The sound wasn't loud, but it did hit me.
Liang Jing suddenly exclaimed, "Jing Yan..."
"It's okay, don't scare her."
After saying that, he paused for two or three seconds, a smile appeared at the corners of his eyes, and he pulled the person into his arms, "I'm going to lose my temper."
Liang Jing took a step back silently.
Jiang Jingyan took out his coat and covered Chen Qing with it. "Working with my former partner is going smoothly as always."
Liang Jing suppressed the pain in her heart and said teasingly, "Then transfer back."
"Forget it." He laughed grimly. "I have concerns and can't let them go. I'm not as concerned about the world as Liang Mi."
"Then you are destined to be shorter than me."
"It doesn't matter if I'm short, but if my partner gets promoted, I'll definitely prepare a gift for him."
In the hazy night, the man had a frank face.
Seemingly affectionate, yet also heartless.
Some are friendships between good friends, and some are between men and women.
Liang Jing smiled and waved her hand casually, "Hurry up and leave, there are still a bunch of people waiting to get you drunk."
Lian Zhuo drove away and caught a glimpse of her wiping her eyes through the rearview mirror.
"Secretary Liang is not in a good mood."
Jiang Jingyan put his lips on Chen Qing's forehead and didn't say a word.
…
The day after the school anniversary, the rumor that "two of Mr. Meng's students were fighting over a woman" went viral in the circle.
What ridiculous remarks about eating leftovers and stealing someone else's wife.
Lian Zhuo was furious when he heard this, but he could do nothing about it.
After all, in order to free this relationship from the constraints of ethical norms, the public statement at the time was that the relationship between the two developed after Jiang Jingyan saw Chen Qing's performance in the ancient town.
If you were to refute your own evidence, wouldn't that be a slap in the face?
Mrs. Chiang had an appointment with several other ladies to drink tea and play cards in the morning, and she overheard a few words. One of the ladies who had worked with the Yan family said bluntly that the Chiang father and son's habit of "eating leftovers" was hereditary.
Over the years, no one has ever been so bold as to openly discuss the Jiang family's right and wrong. Mrs. Jiang was so angry that she ignored her image and called the other person over and gave him a good scolding at the table.
Jiang Jingyan knew who was behind this, but he didn't care much.
The city called him to the conference hall. Vice President Kong's bills had been collected and the higher-ups wanted to reward him, but he refused.
It was not easy to recover the eight million. As the general manager, he was negligent. In his mind, his merits did not outweigh his faults.
Moreover, he was tied up in the Sihanoukville Terminal during this period and it was not convenient for him to show up. He was commanding from behind, and his subordinates and cooperative units were doing the work. He did not contribute at all, so it did not make sense for him to take the responsibility. Therefore, the city decided to award Huasheng. The chairman knew how to guess the leaders' thoughts and asked him to accept the award on his behalf.
Jiang Jingyan got out of the car, walked up the stairs, and wiped the mud off his trouser legs with a handkerchief.
It's drizzling today, the sky is leaden gray, and there are a lot of dark clouds.
He straightened up, a cool breeze blew past, and his cold eyes were even more depressed than the continuous rain behind him.
Yan Baiqing approached slowly, his smile still radiating. "Congratulations."
"Congratulations, Senior Brother."
"How can I be happy? Jingyan was mocking me by saying I was dismissed due to negligence."
Jiang Jingyan also smiled, with a cold look on his lips. "This position in the city is not very interesting. Chairman Yan, don't you like it, Senior Brother?"
Yan Baiqing stood with his hands behind his back, "You know what I like."
He hinted at something, and Jiang Jingyan's smile gradually disappeared, with a murderous look in his eyes.
The two faced each other in silence for a minute, from anger to calm.
Jiang Jingyan crumpled the handkerchief in his hand and threw it at Yan Baiqing's feet, "You left something behind."
Yan Baiqing lowered his head and laughed, "Did you steal it from Qing'er?"
The word 'grab' is intentional.
Jiang Jingyan snorted and laughed, "Director Yan has been trapped in illusions for his entire life. Senior Brother has decided to repeat the same mistake?"
Yan Baiqing brushed the raindrops off his shoulders and repeated word by word, "Same old mistake."
He took a step forward.
When their eyes met, Jiang Jingyan saw the ambition deeply rooted in his eyes, which rushed out of his eyes like a raging fire, rising in an instant and extinguishing in the next.
Most of the temperature was taken away, and the surrounding air pressure dropped sharply.
"Jingyan, you're worrying too much." Yan Baiqing patted his shoulder and said in a teaching tone, "You've just regained your position, so focus on it."
"Should I praise my senior brother for learning from Master Meng, or should I say that a son follows his father's heart?"
Yan Baiqing's expression suddenly became fierce.
Jiang Jingyan also patted his shoulder and exerted force with his palm, "Yan Baiqing, put your things away and hide yourself. I'm watching you."
The two men collided with each other.
Yan Baiqing raised his head, stretched his neck, and kicked the handkerchief off the ground.
At the same time, Chen Qing arrived at Huiyang Law Firm. During the rehearsal of the welcome party, she came out to meet the lawyer who was handling the funeral affairs for the Chen couple.
She had never doubted what happened that year. Firstly, she was young and unaware, and secondly, the evidence was conclusive and the Chen family did not appeal.
The staff led Chen Qing upstairs, and the next second, the front desk made a phone call.
