Jiang Xiaochen didn't think there was anything wrong with his attitude at all. On the contrary, he comforted her instead: "Zhong Yan, if you want to open up the market in Kyoto, I can help you."
So there's no need to look for someone else!
Zhong Yan was slightly taken aback when he received this message. Was he jealous, or was he jealous?
Jiang Xiaochen made no attempt to hide his feelings, looking at her earnestly and saying, "You're right, I am jealous! And very jealous."
Zhong Yan was speechless for a moment. She had never understood what was so special about her that made him treat her differently.
"Jiang Xiaochen, why do you like me?"
"I like you, that's all! Do I need a reason?" Jiang Xiaochen frowned, looking quite displeased. "What nonsense are you thinking? Zhong Yan, liking you doesn't need a reason."
“I…” Zhong Yan fell silent, unsure how to express her feelings. They were complex, extremely complex! And how should she put it?
It wasn't that she lacked confidence, but rather that she couldn't find any reason to convince herself.
Jiang Xiaochen didn't offer any explanation. He liked her; it was just his good luck! He found his lover from past and present lives based solely on his intuition.
The auction took place the following day.
Zhou Shao personally greeted her at the door. Seeing her arrive, he went up to her with a smile and said, "Sister-in-law, you're here! I've taken care of everything you asked me to do yesterday. Just you wait and see!"
Zhong Yan's eyes sparkled: "Really? Are you sure everything's done? You're not kidding me, are you?"
Zhou Shao twitched his lips. With a powerful figure like Jiang Xiaochen right there, who would dare to lie to her! Wouldn't that be asking for trouble? Besides, he was very curious about her, so helping her out was only natural.
Zhong Yan was unaware of his thoughts; otherwise, she would have been extremely surprised: "If it really works out, I'll send you a red envelope later."
Jiang Xiaochen glanced at Zhou Shao with a detached look. Could it be that one has to be drawn to someone at first sight? Otherwise, how could the two of them have become so close so quickly!
It makes him seem especially disappointing.
Back when I first met Zhong Yan, how much effort did it take for her to show interest in me?
Now, things have really gone wrong!
Just thinking about it makes me angry.
Zhou Shao felt resentment rising behind him, and he shivered silently. What was going on? He had always seemed so friendly!
So why is the boss glaring at me like that?
"you……"
"It's nothing, you can continue." Jiang Xiaochen's expression was calm, as if he understood perfectly: "Zhou Shao, I think it seems like you haven't been training for a while."
"I..." Zhou Shao stumbled. If he wasn't there, who would be willing to go through the training? Not everyone is like him and needs to join the army!
Now I finally understand that I didn't offend him at all; I had clearly really offended him!
However, he's not stupid.
Zhou Shao thought for a moment, then forced himself to move closer to Zhong Yan: "Ugh, sister-in-law, Boss Jiang is so fierce! Please protect me."
Zhong Yan: "..."
Are you sure it's for protection?
Instead of pushing him to the guillotine! Looking at Jiang Xiaochen now, he seems ready to explode at any moment. I wonder how many punches Zhou Shao can withstand if a fight breaks out.
Thinking about it this way, it's still quite disheartening!
