Chapter 14 I Know You Love Me
"No, no, it's my fault. I'll go check it out right away."
Gao Cheng turned and left the office.
As he walked out of the office, he touched his neck and muttered to himself, "It seems that Mrs. He is putting a lot of pressure on me. Mr. He is trying so hard to pretend. I guess Jiang Xu must be so happy."
"Assistant Gao, what did you say about Jiang Xu just now?"
Luna came over and asked.
Gao Cheng said unhappily, "Don't ask about things you shouldn't ask about. Just focus on your own business."
Luna said aggrievedly, "I've noticed that Mr. He has been very mean to me recently. Is there something I've done wrong?"
Gao Cheng waved his hand and said, "How would I know? Go reflect on it yourself."
In fact, he also felt that something seemed to be wrong with Mr. He recently, but he couldn't figure out what the problem was.
But one thing is certain, that is, Mr. He hates Jiang Xu.
When Gao Cheng arrived at his workstation and found that no one was there, he asked his colleague next to him, "Where is Jiang Xu?"
The colleague said, "He just left."
Gao Cheng hurried to chase after him.
Gao Cheng chased all the way to the underground garage and watched Jiang Xu get into a car and leave.
He called He Yanting.
"What, leaving and taking someone else's car?"
He Yanting, who had been waiting leisurely, sat up straight and asked in a low voice, "Man or woman?"
Gao Cheng took a look and said, "The man looks familiar. He seems to be an employee of the group."
He Yanting felt a little stuffy in his chest.
"Send someone to follow them and see where they go?"
Gao Cheng was stunned. When did Mr. He become so interested in Jiang Xu's whereabouts?
But thinking of He Yanting's recent volatility, he didn't dare to ask more questions and immediately arranged for someone to follow him.
Jiang Xu got in the car and Luo Jiaming talked to her.
"You seem to be in a bad mood recently. Is there something bothering you?"
Jiang Xu said in a calm voice, "Everyone has worries."
Luo Jiaming gripped the steering wheel and smiled: "That's true."
He glanced at Jiang Xu sideways and said, "I always feel that you are different from others."
Jiang Xu laughed: "I have three eyes or two noses, how can it be different?"
"no."
Luo Jiaming was amused. "Are all your family members around? I feel like there's an indescribable loneliness about you."
Jiang Xu glanced at him and didn't answer.
"I'm a little tired. I'll take a nap first. Call me when you get there."
Luo Jiaming didn't ask any more questions, just said: "Okay."
He booked a table at a high-end Western restaurant. When they arrived, the waiter took them to a booth by the window.
After ordering the food, Luo Jiaming poured her a glass of red wine.
“The red wine here is very good, all flown in from abroad.”
Jiang Xu shook the goblet, and the scarlet wine inside was almost transparent under the light, as beautiful as a gem.
"Luo Jiaming."
She stared at the red wine and suddenly called him.
Luo Jiaming paused drinking his red wine and looked up at her.
Jiang Xu said softly, "Stop it. He Yanting is not a fool. He will find out about you soon. Then the Luo family will be in even greater trouble."
Luo Jiaming stared at her without blinking.
After more than ten seconds, he chuckled: "When did you know?"
Jiang Xu lowered his eyes and looked at the table.
Of course she didn't know. Jiang Xu saw it on the news after they got married in their previous life.
The Luo family and the He family are rivals and have always been at odds. He Yanting caused heavy losses to the Luo family, and the head of the family was so angry that he suffered a heart attack and was hospitalized.
Luo Jiaming is the third young master of the family. He studied abroad in his early years. After returning, he wanted to take revenge, so he joined Shengyu Group, hoping to find an opportunity to hit He Yanting hard.
"You should also know my identity, right?"
Jiang Xu looked at Luo Jiaming, "I am He Yanting's fiancée. You approached me intentionally not because of love, but because you wanted to find a way to deal with He Yanting."
The faint smile on Luo Jiaming's lips disappeared, and he stared at her: "So you want to report it to He Yanting?"
Jiang Xu shook his head: "To be honest, He Yanting and I will not get married. I just hope you don't involve me."
"besides--"
Jiang Xu's expression was solemn. "I advise you not to do anything stupid. He Yanting is a meticulous person who will seek revenge. If he catches you, you will definitely be put in jail. He will do anything to ruin your life."
In his previous life, He Yanting sent Luo Jiaming to prison, and the old lady of the Luo family died soon due to excessive grief.
Luo Jiaming frowned: "Why did you do this? Report me, He Yanting will definitely thank you."
Jiang Xu lowered his head and smiled: "First of all, you have been very good to me this past year and have helped me a lot. It doesn't matter if it's true or false. We judge by deeds, not by heart. Secondly—"
Just then the waiter delivered the food, and Jiang Xu shut up.
After the food was served and the waiter left, Luo Jiaming asked, "What's next?"
Jiang Xu raised her red lips slightly: "Secondly, I don't care whether He Yanting thanks me or not. What he thinks has nothing to do with me."
Luo Jiaming was about to speak when a sneer suddenly came from behind Jiang Xu.
"Oh? You don't care what I think?"
The blood in Jiang Xu's body instantly froze.
She turned around suddenly.
Behind their position was a large column that could easily cover a person.
A tall figure walked out from behind the pillar. He Yanting had a chilling sneer on his face. He was so handsome, like a demon who was taking lives.
Jiang Xu pursed her lips tightly.
She wasn't sure how much He Yanting had overheard.
Luo Jiaming reacted very quickly and immediately stood up and said, "Mr. He."
He Yanting raised his index finger and tapped it lightly, motioning him to sit down.
Then he came to Jiang Xu and put his hands on her slender shoulders.
The burning temperature of the palm of his hand could be clearly felt through the fabric. Jiang Xu's breathing became slightly stagnant and sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Luo Jiaming, right?"
He Yanting smiled, his tone cold, "Are you interested in her?"
Luo Jiaming's Adam's apple rolled slightly, but he didn't say anything.
Jiang Xu wanted to stand up, but He Yanting pushed her down on a chair.
He snapped his fingers at the waiter, who quickly brought another chair. He Yanting sat down next to him, crossed his long legs, and put one hand on the back of Jiang Xu's chair, feeling confined.
"I have a bad stomach recently. Can I eat these things?"
He Yanting glanced at the steak on the table.
Jiang Xu looked at him: "Luo Jiaming doesn't know the relationship between you and me."
He Yanting scoffed: "Are you afraid that I will embarrass him?"
Jiang Xu pursed her lips: "If you are dissatisfied with me, there is no need to implicate others."
"Shh-"
He Yanting raised his finger and pointed at Luo Jiaming, "Tell him what our relationship is."
He paused and said, "Louder."
Jiang Xu glanced at He Yanting and ignored him.
Luo Jiaming looked at them for a while, then stood up and said, "Mr. He, she has already told me that you are engaged."
"Oh? I already said that."
He Yanting seemed a little surprised, and his frown relaxed instantly.
"Yes, sorry, I won't bother her again."
Luo Jiaming glanced at Jiang Xu and nodded slightly: "Consider this my treat for tonight. Goodbye."
He went to the front desk to pay and then left.
Jiang Xu watched his disappearing back and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he was a smart man and reacted quickly enough.
He Yanting looked at Jiang Xu and held her hand: "Are you angry with me?"
Jiang Xu wanted to pull her hand out, but he refused, so she finally gave up.
"It's not that I didn't believe you just now."
He Yanting rubbed her fingers carefully, his brows furrowed, "You have to understand that no man wants his fiancée to date another man alone."
"You just don't believe me."
Jiang Xu frowned and looked at him, anger in her clear eyes.
He Yanting sensed a hint of coquettishness in her tone, and a few stars of joy flashed in his narrow eyes. He leaned towards Jiang Xu and clasped his hands behind her neck.
"I believe you. I know you love me. You always have, no matter what happens."
