"Xiaobao, why did you bring me here?"
Since the farce that day, Jiang Sanni has thought a lot. She doesn't understand whether Fu Yunsheng is really not a good partner as he said to those around him, or whether all this is just a misunderstanding as Fu Yunsheng explained.
Jiang Sanni had a vague answer in her heart, but she didn't dare to confirm it, because she was afraid that her sincere efforts would cause resentment among her closest family members, and all of this would become a joke in the end.
She was afraid that she was the only one who took this relationship seriously.
"Wait a minute, I just want you to see clearly."
Jiang Yilu was sitting in the back seat of the car. He bought this silver Citroen CX20 himself. After all, he couldn't keep borrowing Xia Ai's car to show off. At this stage, it was necessary to buy a car. He also knew that the prices of cars were very high now. After all, spending hundreds of thousands to buy a car was enough to buy several more houses in the capital, and the car would only depreciate more and more. Compared with the relatively low prices in later generations, the current car prices were extremely uneconomical.
But when doing business, sometimes it’s not just about the product. When you become the richest man, if you ride a bicycle to negotiate business, others will think you are frugal. But before you have established yourself in this industry, they will only think that you don’t have the capital to spend and your strength needs to be evaluated.
Therefore, Jiang Yilu considered it again and again and decided to buy a car.
Jiang Sanni sat by the car window, her hands on her knees, her fingers twisted into a ball. She felt something was wrong with her brother's mysterious behavior this time.
"Here he comes!" Jiang Yilu looked through the window at the person coming not far away and said lightly to Jiang Sanni.
Coming? Jiang Sanni was a little puzzled and turned to look out the window.
Not far away, a man in a white shirt walked stealthily into a small alley next to the car. The car was parked in a very clever place, allowing him to see everything clearly.
"Yunsheng?" Jiang Sanni exclaimed and recognized the person at once. Although the other party seemed to want to hide his tracks and covered his face with his hands, Jiang Sanni was so familiar with him that her eyes alone were enough for her to recognize him.
But why did Fu Yunsheng come to this place so secretly?
Jiang Sanni wanted to get off the car, but Jiang Yilu stopped her and motioned for her to continue reading.
Not long after Fu Yunsheng arrived, a man who walked unsteadily and in a sloppy manner appeared in the alley. He was wearing a somewhat torn blue work suit and a gray cloth hat on his head. There was a square blue patch on the top of the hat.
This conspicuous mark made Jiang Sanni recognize the person at once. Wasn't this the gangster who had robbed her things and cut Fu Yunsheng before escaping? Jiang Sanni still remembered his face clearly. Even the clothes he was wearing were exactly the same as what he wore that day.
Why did Fu Yunsheng want to meet that man?
Jiang Sanni clenched her teeth. Although she couldn't hear the other person's words due to the distance between them, the gangster's smiling face and the thick stack of envelopes that Fu Yunsheng handed to him were enough for Jiang Sanni to guess something.
She was blinded by love, but that doesn't mean she is really stupid.
"Let me out of the car." Jiang Sanni's voice was very calm. Watching the gangster leave with a smile, Fu Yunsheng also turned around and walked out of the alley, and said to Jiang Yilu.
"Third sister, you are not a child anymore." Jiang Yilu sighed, thinking that the other party was still obsessed.
As early as when the third sister introduced Fu Yunsheng to them, he had been sending people to monitor him. Jiang Yiliu didn't believe that there was no handle on the other party. Three days ago, Li San went to find Fu Yunsheng, and Jiang Yiliu's people told him immediately. Jiang Yiliu felt at the time that this was a great opportunity for the third sister to see Fu Yunsheng's character thoroughly.
The gangster was just a low-level henchman. After being caught and threatened, he confessed everything. Jiang Yilu used threats and inducements to make him cooperate with the act. Li San dared not disobey. After all, he had suffered enough. For the sake of his life, why would he dare to play any tricks? Besides, Jiang Yilu did not ask him to cooperate for nothing. He also gave him 500 yuan. Together with the money extorted from Fu Yunsheng, it was enough for him to run a small business honestly and live a good life.
Fu Yunsheng knew nothing. He just wanted to temporarily appease Li San, who knew the truth. Now, he was still worried about how to coax Jiang Sanni back. However, he didn't expect that the person he wanted to coax had seen everything not far away.
"I know--" Jiang Sanni smiled at her brother, with tears in her eyes. Her smile was mixed with tears, which made people feel distressed and anxious.
"I want to give myself an answer. This time, I won't be stupid again." Jiang Sanni opened the car door, and this time Jiang Yilu did not stop her.
"Boss..." The driver in front pretended not to hear anything and asked Jiang Yiliu, "We?"
"Stop here for now." Jiang Yilu shook his head, closed his eyes, and said nothing more.
The driver in the front smacked his lips, thinking that his boss was too busy. Not only did he have to manage two large factories, but he also had to help his sister deal with her emotional issues. Even if he had three heads and six arms, it would not be enough for him to handle.
Sanni didn't know that she had become the target of the driver's criticism. She wiped away her tears, made sure that everything was fine, and ran towards Fu Yunsheng with a smile.
"Why are you here? I've been locked up by my grandparents these days and I haven't seen you."
Fu Yunsheng was shocked to see Jiang Sanni suddenly appear, and his face looked a little ugly. However, seeing her smiling face, he probably didn't see the scene of the transaction between him and Li San.
As Fu Yunsheng thought about this, his tense expression suddenly relaxed.
"I'm here to buy some envelopes." Fu Yunsheng curled his lips and took out a stack of stationery and said.
"Oh!" Jiang Sanni nodded. "I've made up my mind. I like you. This has nothing to do with my grandparents. They said that if I were with you, they would send a telegram to break up with me. It doesn't matter. Anyway, you and I are both college students. We won't starve to death in the future. We don't have to rely on them for anything."
"Yunsheng, shall we go get the certificate?"
Jiang Sanni's words were like a bolt from the blue, shocking Fu Yunsheng greatly.
"Bullshit, bullshit the certificate!" Fu Yunsheng looked at the resounding girl in front of him, not happy at all, "It's too sudden, and your grandparents have a misunderstanding of me now. I should explain the misunderstanding and marry you openly. Otherwise, it will be unfair to you."
Fu Yunsheng forced himself to put on a gentle and affectionate expression. The person he wanted to marry was Jiang Cheng's granddaughter, Jiang Yilu's sister, not Jiang Sanni. Without all this, Jiang Sanni did not make him want to marry her at all, from the inside out.
Undergraduate students! Ha!
There are many girls in school who are prettier than Jiang Sanni, and many of them are city girls. Why should he marry Jiang Sanni?
"Sanni, I want to give you a wedding that is blessed by both sets of parents. Believe me, I won't let you down." Fu Yunsheng held Jiang Sanni's shoulders and said solemnly.
There seemed to be a starlight in Jiang Sanni's eyes, and a misty fog was flowing in her eyes. She looked at the man in front of her, lowered her head, and the starlight shattered.
"So you don't want to marry me now?" Jiang Sanni's voice was very soft, as if she was talking to herself.
"That's right. Marriage is a big deal, and it must have the blessings of both parents." Fu Yunsheng just thought that something was wrong when Jiang Sanni immediately replied. Her expression looked normal and she didn't seem angry.
Fu Yunsheng breathed a sigh of relief, wondering if the matter was over.
"My grandparents already know that I lent you the money, and they forced me to ask you to write an IOU." Jiang Sanni took out a IOU that had been written long ago from her bosom, and all that was left was a signature.
When Old Lady Miao made a scene that day, Jiang Sanni hid in her room and somehow wrote this IOU. As soon as she finished writing it, she stuffed it into her pocket and never took it out again. Now it seems that she was quite foresighted.
Jiang Sanni tried to make the situation more cheerful and handed the note to Fu Yunsheng.
"My grandfather said that if this matter is not handled properly, he will go to your school and my school to make a scene and ask the school to give an explanation. The old man is old and has a stubborn mind. If this matter is not handled to his satisfaction, he will probably make a scene."
Jiang Sanni's eyes were filled with worry, and she seemed really worried about this matter.
"Does your grandfather know about this?" What you fear is bound to happen. What Fu Yunsheng cares most about is old man Jiang's opinion. If that damn old man says anything to that old man, his future will be ruined.
"Don't worry, it's just an IOU. I'll coax grandpa and grandma when they calm down. Once we get married, all of this will be ours. There's no need to distinguish between you and me." Jiang Sanni's voice was gentle. "Besides, didn't you also say you wanted to write an IOU that day? Or, have you never thought about paying the money back from the beginning to the end?"
There was some doubt in Jiang Sanni's eyes, which made Fu Yunsheng's expression freeze instantly.
"No, no, why would I do such a thing? Don't you still believe me?" To be honest, once the money was in Fu Yunsheng's hands, he never thought of returning it.
He had long been jealous of the profits from Jiang Yiliu's stores and wanted to borrow money to open a few stores like that, but firstly, he didn't have the recipe, and secondly, he couldn't spare the time for the time being. Now he has kept the money well hidden, and even his parents don't know about it.
"If this can make the old man feel a little more at ease with me, I'm willing to write not just one IOU, but two or three." Fu Yunsheng tapped Jiang Sanni's nose and said lovingly.
Jiang Sanni now only feels disgusted by the actions that used to make her blush and her heart beat faster.
"But I think I didn't bring a pen. How about I write it to you some other day?" Fu Yunsheng touched the pocket of his clothes and said embarrassedly.
"It's okay, I brought a pen." Jiang Sanni seemed to have expected his words. She took out a pen from her pocket and handed it to Fu Yunsheng with a smile.
Fu Yunsheng was in a dilemma and could only grit his teeth and take the banknote handed over by Jiang Sanni. His eyes were blazing with anger and he wished he could burn a hole in the IOU. After hesitating for a long time, he signed his name heavily on it.
Jiang Sanni took the IOU, checked it carefully, then folded it again and put it in her pocket.
"Pa--" The moment she put the IOU down, Jiang Sanni's face suddenly changed and she slapped Fu Yunsheng hard on the face.
“Snap—Snap—Snap—”
"Bitch--" Jiang Sanni slapped Fu Yunsheng hard several times, turned around and ran back to the car that had been parked not far away. By the time Fu Yunsheng came to his senses and chased after her, the car had already driven away.
Jiang Yilu looked at his third sister who was crying miserably on his chest, and patted her back comfortingly.
"Am I stupid? I know he has so many flaws, but I still can't help but make excuses for him, believe him, and forgive him. Xiaobao, do you think I am a joke?"
Jiang Sanni nestled in her brother's arms, her voice filled with tears.
What can Jiang Yiliu say? Actually, the third sister can't say she is innocent in this matter, but she is not absolutely wrong. After all, it is too easy for a man who is excellent in everything to please a girl.
"I've thought it through." Sanni stood up and wiped the tears from her face. Her red eyes and messy hair made her look a little disheveled.
"Your second sister and the others protected me too well, which made me a little ignorant. I always felt that no matter what I did, I was protected. I was stupid and didn't realize it. I am not a child anymore, and there are some things that I should bear by myself."
Jiang Sanni's eyes were more serious than ever before. "Our school has a quota for an exchange program to the United States, which includes tuition and living expenses. Our instructor asked me what I think, because my English score is the best in our major. This trip will last for three years. During these three years, let me think carefully."
Jiang Sanni looked at her brother in front of her. To be honest, it was he who forced her to learn English. You see, in so many areas that she didn't notice, her brother had actually helped her a lot.
In the outside world, there is no sister to protect her everywhere, nor a brother to take care of everything for her. It’s time for her to grow up.
"good--"
Jiang Yilu was stunned for a few seconds, then nodded, and Jiang Sanni smiled.
This day is a turning point in her life. Perhaps because of this pain, she will embark on another, completely different path.
