Chapter 3 Pregnant?
I pressed the answer button and a magnetic voice came into my ears.
"Come to my office."
"I……"
Jiang Xu was about to say that he was off work when the phone was hung up.
She had no choice but to go to the president's office on the top floor.
Gao Cheng saw her and said with a dull expression, "Boss He is talking to someone."
Jiang Xu glanced at the personal assistant. The coldness on his face was almost undisguised. She used to tolerate him for He Yanting, but not now.
"Boss He asked me to come."
After saying that, she said no more, walked around Gao Cheng, pushed the door open and walked in.
Gao Cheng's expression changed slightly, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Jiang Xu became inquiring.
Why do I suddenly feel that something has changed about her?
In the past, no matter how impatient she was with her, she would still be polite in order to get ahead, but today she was so strong.
When Jiang Xu entered the office, he saw He Yanting sitting in front of a large desk, and two executives were reporting on their work.
Next to him, Luna was pouring coffee for him.
Luna is the assistant hired by He Yanting two months ago. She is young, beautiful, charming and lively.
Jiang Xu accidentally heard Gao Cheng chatting with others and found out that He Yanting deliberately hired Luna as an assistant just to anger her away.
He Yanting glanced at her, then looked away and continued listening to the report.
Jiang Xu stood there for a while, then sat down on the sofa.
She hesitated for a while, wondering whether to mention her resignation.
But since we have already gone through the process with HR, let’s forget about it today. It won’t take longer than a few days anyway.
After Luna poured the coffee, she rolled her eyes at Jiang Xu as she passed by her.
Jiang Xu found it funny. Could it be that Luna wanted to compete with her?
In fact, they are both cannon fodder, and He Yanting already has someone in his heart.
After waiting for half an hour, the executive finally finished his report. Jiang Xu was getting a little impatient and stood up and said:
"Mr. He, what do you want to talk to me about?"
He Yanting raised his eyelids and looked at her: "Did you come to see me today?"
Jiang Xu paused: "I have a contract for you to sign."
He Yanting looked at her for a few seconds.
Jiang Xu felt a little suffocated and didn't want to be in the same room with him.
"Nothing else, I'm leaving now."
"Wait a moment."
He Yanting stood up, picked up his suit jacket and put it on. "Grandma wants to see you. Accompany me back to the old house."
"Now?"
Jiang Xu widened his eyes.
He Yanting paused, said nothing, and looked at her with a "what else" look.
Jiang Xu said: "I'm busy."
We plan to never see each other again, so there is no need to have anything to do with his family.
He Yanting raised his eyebrows and looked at her in surprise.
"Ginger."
He suddenly called her name.
Jiang Xu looked up at him.
When their eyes met, He Yanting's deep eyes, which could show deep affection even to a dog, were like a sharp sword, piercing Jiang Xu's soul.
"Why don't you want to go back to the old house? Didn't you like visiting grandma the most in the past?"
Jiang Xu avoided his gaze and stammered, "I made an appointment with Xiaoli."
He Yanting knew that Chi Xiaoli was her good friend.
"Push it, come back with me."
He Yanting spoke in a strong tone, not allowing for any questioning.
In the end, Jiang Xu got into He Yanting's car.
The back seat of the Rolls-Royce Phantom was very spacious. He Yanting sat casually on one side, and Jiang Xu was very far away from him, almost reaching the car door.
He Yanting put down the work at hand, glanced at the woman who was avoiding him as if he were a plague, and pursed his thin lips.
Gao Cheng, the co-pilot, suddenly spoke up: "Mr. He, you suddenly disappeared for an hour at the banquet yesterday, and Mr. Xu couldn't find you."
Jiang Xu tensed up, his fingers clasped together.
He Yanting said calmly, "I'm busy."
Jiang Xu's heart skipped a beat, recalling the charming scene in bed yesterday, and thought to herself, he is indeed very busy.
Who would have thought that this cold, abstinent, and seemingly unattainable man would be so proactive in bed, like a wolf that had been hungry for hundreds of years, wishing to swallow her whole.
Thinking of this, she quickly raised her hand to straighten her collar.
I specially chose a high-necked dress today to cover up the traces left by He Yanting. I hope no one will see it.
He Yanting turned his gaze slightly, noticed her movements, and his eyes darkened slightly.
When they arrived at the old house, Jiang Xu did not walk with He Yanting as usual. After getting off the car, he walked into the house by himself.
As soon as she entered the entrance hall, He Yanting held her hand.
Jiang Xu struggled subconsciously, but He Yanting held her even tighter.
"What's wrong? Isn't it like this every time?" he said slowly.
Jiang Xu pursed her lips and said, "I think it's boring. I don't need to act anymore."
He Yanting said, "Performing can make the old lady happy, so why not do it?"
Jiang Xu stopped arguing with him and went into the house. Old Mrs. He greeted her warmly, and He Yanting let her go.
Old Madam He pulled Jiang Xu over and looked her over: "You've lost weight."
She looked at He Yanting: "Is there too much going on in the group? Why does she look so grim?"
He Yanting put his hands in his pockets and said lazily, "Grandma, you repeatedly told me to take good care of her. How could I dare to assign her too many things?"
"Smooth talk."
Old Madam He pulled Jiang Xu into the living room and said, "It's the weekend, stay here for two days. Grandma will ask the kitchen to nourish you well."
Old Mrs. He watched Jiang Xu grow up and treated her like her own granddaughter.
Jiang Xu couldn't bear to refuse and nodded: "Yes."
Anyway, as long as she was here, He Yanting would not stay long, so it was just right that she didn't have to see him.
Next, Mrs. He and Jiang Xu sat down and chatted about family matters.
He Yanting received a work call and got up to leave.
Half an hour later, dinner was ready.
"Ruanruan, go call Yanting for dinner."
Old Mrs. He patted Jiang Xu's hand.
Jiang Xu stood up and walked to the corridor leading to the garden, where there was a whole glass wall.
He Yanting stood sideways in front of the glass wall, with the background of red roses spreading in the garden. He lowered his head and talked on the phone. He was tall and well-proportioned, with three-dimensional facial features like a model, and he looked as beautiful as a painting.
Jiang Xu woke up from his trance vigilantly, clenched his fists and walked over.
Then I heard him say to the person on the phone: "I'm at the old house, I can't accompany you tonight...um...have fun."
Jiang Xueruo's voice was very soft on the phone: "With Jiang Xu?"
He Yanting said, "Yes."
Jiang Xueruo's tone was obviously disappointed: "Oh, then I won't bother you anymore."
He Yanting put away his phone and turned around to meet Jiang Xu's gaze.
Jiang Xu looked away and said coldly, "Grandma asked you to eat."
After saying that, he turned and left.
The two of them arrived at the restaurant one after the other. Old Mrs. He asked them to sit down and kept picking up food for Jiang Xu.
"Grandma, don't pick up any more food for me. I don't have much appetite today."
As soon as Jiang Xu finished speaking, Mrs. He laughed: "Could she be pregnant?"
As soon as these words were spoken, He Yanting stopped eating and stared at Jiang Xu.
Jiang Xu smiled awkwardly: "How could that be? We haven't reached that stage yet."
Mrs. He's face was filled with disappointment. "Why are you two so conservative? Pregnancy before marriage is a trend these days. Look at the eldest son of the Chen family. He's not even married yet, but he already has two children."
