Chapter 182 Soft, you win
Looking at He Yanting's haggard and mean face, Jiang Xu was speechless.
Just as she was about to fight back, a purring voice came from the door: "I'm hungry."
Only then did Jiang Xu let go of He Yanting's hand.
"Mom will make you breakfast."
"oh."
Tuanbao's pupils trembled slightly and he glanced at He Yanting.
He Yanting said, "Let me cook. The food you cook won't be enough for a child to handle."
"Don't look down on me. I still know how to fry an egg."
Jiang Xu went downstairs confidently.
Twenty minutes later, three breakfasts came out of the pot. Jiang Xu glanced upstairs to make sure no one was watching, and secretly removed the burnt parts of the fried eggs and sausages.
Then he carried the tray upstairs.
He Yanting took the plate and looked at it carefully for a long time. Jiang Xu said speechlessly, "Don't look at it. It's edible. I've tried it."
After hearing this, He Yanting and Tuanbao started eating with peace of mind.
After finishing the meal, Jiang Xu took the plate and said proudly, "How is it? It's perfect this time, isn't it?"
He Yanting nodded: "Yes, it's just that this fried egg looks smaller than usual. Of course, it's definitely not your fault, it's the chicken's fault."
Looking at his serious look, Jiang Xu knew that he had already seen through the clues.
He snorted coldly and left with the plate.
As soon as she left the house, He Yanting and Tuanbao both made a "Pooh" sound, spat out the broken eggshells from their mouths, and silently threw them into the trash can.
The father and son looked at each other and understood each other tacitly.
Jiang Xu took care of He Yanting for three days. He Yanting's condition improved obviously, so she took a few days off and it was time to go back to work.
He Yanting cooked that night, and Tuanbao ate especially much.
After dinner, Jiang Xu played with him for a while.
Tuanbao asked: "Will you live here forever?"
Jiang Xu shook her head: "Mom will go back to her own home tomorrow."
Tuanbao was obviously disappointed.
Jiang Xu comforted him: "It's okay, I will still pick you up to go out and play every weekend, and mom will video chat with you every night, okay?"
Tuanbao was silent for a while, then said in a muffled voice, "Yeah."
Jiang Xu looked up and found He Yanting, who had just finished cleaning the kitchen, standing not far away, looking at her seriously.
Meeting her gaze, he turned and went upstairs.
After playing for a while, Jiang Xu took Tuanbao upstairs to sleep.
After Tuanbao fell asleep, she returned to the master bedroom and found that He Yanting was not there. She guessed that he should be in the study.
She took a shower and then went to sleep.
A few minutes later, footsteps were heard, followed by the sound of the sheets sinking, and a familiar scent enveloped her.
"Are you leaving tomorrow?" A magnetic voice sounded next to my ear.
"Um."
Jiang Xu responded.
Suddenly, He Yanting's hands became restless and reached into the quilt.
He had run out of it the last time.
But Jiang Xu just snorted and didn't refuse.
Her acquiescence made He Yanting even more arrogant. He bit her earlobe and called out, "Ruanruan."
The curtains swayed gently, and it was not until late at night that things quieted down.
Jiang Xu was completely exhausted as she was held in He Yanting's arms. He kissed the top of her head and whispered, "Ruanruan, you win."
A second before falling asleep, Jiang Xu was confused.
What did she win?
This confusion was resolved a week after she left.
That morning, Jiang Xu was busy in the laboratory when the cell phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
The call was from Chi Xiaoli.
Jiang Xu thought that Yuan Zhiteng's interview was over and Chi Xiaoli wanted to invite her to dinner. But as soon as she pressed the answer button, her screaming voice instantly pierced her eardrums:
"Xubao, the news says your He Zong is getting engaged to that Song Mingyue. Tell me now, this is fake news!"
These words made Jiang Xu stunned.
Chi Xiaoli continued, "These unscrupulous media outlets only fabricate fake news to attract attention. Mr. He and Song Mingyue are not related at all, so how could they be engaged? Besides, the person he loves is obviously you."
While she was talking to herself, Jiang Xu quickly opened the software.
The first one that caught my eye was the hot search with the word "explosive" behind it.
[Breaking News! A Wealthy Marriage: Shengyu Group President He Yanting and the eldest daughter of the Song family are about to get engaged]
Jiang Xu casually flipped through the pages and found many photos of He Yanting in financial magazines, and some people also posted photos of Song Mingyue attending a meeting.
Most people expressed envy and sent their blessings.
Others said that it is true that wealthy families are most particular about matching people of equal status.
There were also people who knew some inside information, saying that He Yanting also had a four-year-old son, and a group of people below were discussing who the son's biological mother was.
"My colleague's second uncle's niece works at Shengyu Group. She told us that the child's biological mother was a cleaning lady at the group. After she gave birth, President He gave her 100 million yuan to get rid of her."
"How spineless! You're going to abandon your child for 100 million?"
"The people above are so noble. Give me 100 million, and not only will I abandon my child, but I will also kowtow to the president before leaving."
"This is fake news. My classmate's brother-in-law's uncle is Mr. He's driver. It is said that the child was taken care of by someone abroad. The president has no interest in women at all."
"Where did the dream girl come from? The president is not interested in women, but he is interested in you? Haha."
…
Jiang Xu closed the chaotic comment section, clicked back, and found that the hot search had disappeared.
I don't know which side withdrew it.
Chi Xiaoli was still chattering on the phone: "Xubao, please say something. How could Mr. He be engaged to Song Mingyue?"
After a few seconds of silence, Jiang Xu took a deep breath and said, "It's true."
"How is this possible! Isn't it you that Mr. He likes? And there's also Tuanbao between you two!"
Chi Xiaoli found it hard to accept.
"Xiao Li, don't worry about this matter."
Jiang Xu couldn't explain it to her, so he could only persuade her like this.
Chi Xiaoli said, "Xubao, tell me the truth, are you upset that Mr. He and Song Mingyue are getting engaged?"
Jiang Xu was silent for a few seconds. Just as he was about to speak, a researcher came over to ask about something.
"I have something else to do here, I'll hang up first."
She ended the call and turned back to her work.
Shengyu Group, President's Office.
Gao Cheng was reporting on his work when He Yanting's phone rang.
Glancing at the caller, he answered the phone with a cold expression: "Hello?"
"Did you ask someone to remove the trending search?"
There was a hint of aggression in Song Mingyue's voice.
He Yanting played with the pen in his hand and said lightly, "Yes."
Song Mingyue said, "Since you agreed to marry me, why are you hiding it? Is getting engaged to me something shameful?"
He Yanting said calmly, "This is about the reputation of Shengyu Group. Miss Song, I want to remind you not to buy these random trending searches next time."
Song Mingyue snorted coldly: "Haha, fine, I can't argue with you, but don't forget our agreement. I not only want to get married, but also want our relationship to be exposed enough."
"As long as you can keep your promise, I will naturally not break my promise."
He Yanting's tone was cold.
Song Mingyue changed her tone and asked, "Are you free to have dinner together tonight?"
"I have a meeting, so I'm busy."
After He Yanting finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
He tapped the tabletop with his long fingers and looked at Gao Cheng with cold eyes: "How's the investigation going?"
Gao Cheng said, "There are indeed major problems within the Song family. Old Master Song is critically ill, and there's a serious power struggle within the family. Song Mingyue's second uncle is already highly regarded by Old Master Song, and I heard that Song Baoyue has also returned from abroad to support him. The current situation is very unfavorable to Song Mingyue's father."
He Yanting narrowed his eyes. "I guess this is why she wants to marry me. With Shengyu Group as her backing, the possibility of her father ascending to the throne will be greatly increased."
"Mr. He."
Gao Cheng bravely asked what was in his heart, "Are you really going to marry Song Mingyue?"
He Yanting sneered.
"Back then, Song Baoyue used the agreement to deceive my father, causing tragedy for my parents. Now her niece, Song Mingyue, wants to use the same method to trap me."
Having said that, his black eyes were like ice, full of murderous intent.
"I will never let my father's tragedy happen to me again. Not only that, I will make them pay for everything that happened to them."
