Chapter 56 Why Not Marry Her?
The dinner was quite sumptuous, with a combination of meat and vegetables, light-flavored home-cooked dishes, and Jiang Xu's favorite stomach-nourishing seafood porridge.
Neither of them spoke. Jiang Xu buried her head in her food, while He Yanting occasionally served her some food and added more porridge.
After dinner, He Yanting washed the dishes.
Later, the furniture company delivered the furniture list.
He Yanting handed a thick catalog of products to Jiang Xu and asked her to choose the furniture she liked.
"I can choose any style."
Taking the roster, Jiang Xu spoke.
He Yanting said, "As long as you like it."
Jiang Xu glanced at the mansion with its serious and simple decoration style, and a bad idea came to his mind.
It was almost ten o'clock in the evening when He Yanting came to call her to bed.
Jiang Xu had just looked and saw that only the master bedroom had a big bed, which meant they would have to sleep together at night.
"Why don't you sleep on the sofa?" Jiang Xu suggested.
He Yanting raised his eyebrows: "I can't sleep well."
Jiang Xu turned and left: "I'm used to sleeping, then I'll go to sleep."
He Yanting grabbed her and said, "Don't make trouble. What if you fall from up there?"
Jiang Xu said: "We can sleep together, but don't do anything rash."
He Yanting raised the corner of his lips: "You are pregnant now, I can't do anything wrong even if I want to."
Jiang Xu said coldly: "I'm not just talking about that. You are not allowed to touch or kiss me. At least keep half a meter away from me."
"Okay." He Yanting agreed readily.
After taking a shower, Jiang Xu went to bed, and He Yanting went to the study to work.
Because she was in a new environment, Jiang Xu didn't sleep well. In the middle of the night, she felt He Yanting coming back and lying down next to her.
He kept his promise and slept on the other side of the bed.
Jiang Xu felt relieved and fell asleep unknowingly.
The next day, she woke up in a daze, thinking she was still at home. She subconsciously hugged the "pillow" in her arms tightly and rubbed her face against it for a while.
Suddenly, I felt that the "pillow" didn't feel right. I opened my eyes and found that the person in my arms was He Yanting.
She was so frightened that she dared not breathe. She looked back and saw that she had crossed the line and ran to his side.
Feeling a little guilty.
Jiang Xu carefully released the hand that was holding him and moved slowly to her side.
Then he tiptoed out of bed and went to the bathroom.
As soon as she left, the man on the bed opened his eyes and a funny smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
After washing up, Jiang Xu came to the living room and studied on his mobile phone.
After a while, He Yanting came downstairs and asked her what she wanted to eat. Jiang Xu said whatever.
He Yanting went to the kitchen and cooked two bowls of refreshing noodles.
After dinner, Jiang Xu looked at the time. It was almost time to go to work. She had said before that she would be his assistant, but she didn't know what was going on.
He Yanting changed into a noble black suit and came down from upstairs. He said, "Your seat in the office hasn't been arranged yet. Don't go there today. Rest at home."
Jiang Xu nodded: "I need to go home to get some things, and I need a room to study."
He Yanting paused slightly: "I made it very clear last night, this is your home, you can put your things wherever you want, you can choose any room."
After saying that, he walked out quickly.
Gao Cheng was waiting outside.
Jiang Xu saw He Yanting give some instructions to the two bodyguards, and the two bodyguards stayed.
The bodyguard bowed slightly to Jiang Xu and said, "Madam, you need to go home to get something. We will drive you there to save you the trouble."
Jiang Xu's face looked slightly gloomy.
To put it nicely, it's helping her get things, but isn't it just monitoring her?
Afterwards, she went back home and packed up her computer, study materials, and some frequently worn clothes.
"Put everything down, I'll clean it up myself."
Jiang Xu ordered.
The bodyguard said respectfully, "Madam, we are right at the door. Please feel free to ask for anything. We have arranged for a nanny to prepare lunch and dinner."
Jiang Xu nodded and closed the door.
As she sorted her things, she thought about her current situation.
For her, studying is the most important thing. Once she has decided on a school, the next thing she needs to do is find a way to leave.
As for the children...
She lowered her head and touched her belly. If He Yanting continued to watch her so closely, she would have to stay.
In the evening, Jiang Xu selected the furniture and called the furniture company to communicate.
Jiang Xu knew it was an Italian brand and the price per piece was very high, so she casually asked, "How much is the total price?"
The staff asked her to wait a moment and said, "Ma'am, you have a good eye. All the items you bought are our fine products, with a total price of 30 million."
Jiang Xu's heart skipped a beat.
Although she comes from a wealthy family, 30 million is still a lot of money for her. She might be willing to spend it to buy a house, but not to buy furniture.
"What do you think?" the staff asked.
Jiang Xu said calmly, "Very good, send it over as soon as possible."
Anyway, it’s He Yanting who pays for it, so it’s a waste not to spend it.
At this time, the nanny who was responsible for cooking dinner came over. She was very kind and professional. She brought fresh vegetables and went into the kitchen to get busy.
Jiang Xu was just about to study when there was a knock on the door. Jiang Xu walked over to open it.
"lady."
The bodyguard looked embarrassed.
Following his gaze, Jiang Xu saw Jiang Xueruo standing at the door.
Jiang Xueruo was surprised to see her: "Why are you here?"
Jiang Xu asked, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Xueruo pursed her lips and didn't answer her. Instead, she looked at the bodyguard: "The water heater in my apartment was broken before, so Brother Yan Ting asked me to live here."
The bodyguard scratched his head and glanced at Jiang Xu, feeling very embarrassed.
Jiang Xu smiled. "It seems like your apartment's water heater has broken down quite a bit. If it really doesn't work, I suggest you replace it."
Jiang Xueruo felt embarrassed as if she had been exposed. "I'll go in and wait for Brother Yan Ting first."
Jiang Xu crossed his arms and asked, "Did I allow you to come in?"
Jiang Xueruo frowned: "This is Brother Yanting's house, do you need your permission?"
Jiang Xu took a deep breath and nodded: "Okay, then you listen."
She took out her cell phone and called He Yanting.
The call was quickly picked up. Jiang Xu turned on the hands-free mode. He Yanting's voice was filled with surprise and caution: "Ruanruan, call me, what's going on?"
Jiang Xu asked, "Did you say yesterday that I was the owner of this house?"
He Yanting said firmly: "Yes."
"Then if I don't like someone, do I have the right to refuse her entry?"
Jiang Xu glanced at Jiang Xueruo.
He Yanting said: "Of course."
After saying that, he paused again: "But first, let me make it clear, except for me."
Jiang Xu ignored him: "That's it, hang up."
"etc."
He Yanting stopped her and said, "I have a meeting later and may be back very late. Remember to eat on time and don't stay up late at night."
"knew."
Jiang Xu hung up the phone and looked at Jiang Xueruo, "You are not welcome here, please leave."
Jiang Xueruo's eyes were red and she turned and left.
That night, Jiang Xu had a big appetite and ate a lot. After dinner, he started to concentrate on studying.
Stuck on a problem, she studied it for a long time and consulted Qin Zifei, accidentally forgetting the time.
Until He Yanting came back, his brows furrowed tightly: "Are you still asleep?"
Jiang Xu looked at the time and it was almost one in the morning.
She stretched and said, "I'll go to bed right away."
He Yanting asked, "Are you hungry? I'll make you some midnight snack."
Jiang Xu shook his head: "I'm not hungry."
After saying that, he turned off the computer and went upstairs.
When she came out of the shower, she found He Yanting still downstairs. Without thinking anything else, she went to bed.
After a long while, He Yanting came in, went to the bathroom to take a shower, and lay down next to him.
"Lights out?"
"Um."
In the pitch darkness, Jiang Xu didn't feel sleepy at all.
Her back was to He Yanting, but she couldn't help but sense his movements. It was so quiet that she could even hear his breathing.
Jiang Xu closed his eyes and forced himself to fall asleep.
At this moment, He Yanting's voice was heard: "What did you say to Xue Ruo this afternoon?"
Jiang Xu said calmly, "Nothing, I just hate her and don't want her to come in."
He Yanting was silent for a while.
Jiang Xu added: "If you feel bad, then let her stay here and I'll move out."
Continue to be silent.
After a long while, he finally spoke: "That's not what I meant. I understand that you don't want her to come in, but you can be nicer. Xue Ruo is said to cry easily."
Jiang Xu sat up suddenly. "How about you call her now and I'll personally apologize to her. If apologizing isn't enough, invite her over and I'll kneel down and admit my mistake to her."
"Ruanruan, don't get excited."
He Yanting stood up and took her hand.
Jiang Xu shook him off and sneered, "If you like her so much, why don't you marry her? Why, you want love and shares? You're too greedy!"
She was so angry that she was shaking slightly. He Yanting pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly.
"Ruanruan, what nonsense are you talking about?"
