Chapter 174 Engagement



Listening to her incoherent words, Jiang Jingxing couldn't help but sigh inwardly; he had been too hasty.

"Ayan, I'm sorry. I was too selfish and didn't consider your feelings. It's normal that you don't want to. I'll wait for you to graduate."

Su Yan's chaotic mind calmed down the moment she heard these words. The man's tone was full of helplessness and doting, which suddenly made her feel guilty.

She opened her mouth, "If... if we get engaged after this year, we can get married when I graduate. Of course, if you don't want to wait, that's fine too. We can just pretend nothing happened between us."

Four years is enough time for her to make her way in the world.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Jiang Jingxing was so angry at her last words that his head ached. He took a deep breath and said, "I'm very happy that you proposed. It's just four years. I'm willing to wait for you."

He just felt that Su Yan was too dazzling and outstanding, and her excellence made him afraid that he would not be able to keep her.

No! She has feelings for him!

Jiang Jingxing's gaze gradually hardened, and he said seriously, "Ayan, remember to keep your distance from the opposite sex when you get to school, otherwise your man will get so jealous that even he will be afraid of himself."

Hearing these jealous words, Su Yan rolled her eyes and retorted, "Who's my man? We're not married yet, you're just my boyfriend at most!"

Jiang Jingxing smiled slightly; the girl's admission that she was his "girlfriend" made him feel satisfied.

“Your partner is also your man,” he insisted.

Su Yan's face turned as red as a shrimp, and she was too lazy to argue with him anymore. "Okay, I'm hanging up now. I'm going out with Sister Caixia to buy some things."

"Wait a minute." Jiang Jingxing hurriedly said, "I will send my monthly allowance back to you every month. When you arrive in Beijing, I will give you my bankbook."

"Give it to me? No way! We're just dating, I don't want you managing my money. Keep it for yourself, bye!"

Without giving the man a chance to reply, she slammed the phone down and leaned against the wall, letting out a heavy sigh.

Jiang Jingxing's candidness was so overwhelming that she was a little taken aback.

Su Yan shook her head, clearing her mind of all distractions, before returning to her room to call Feng Caixia to come out.

"Beep beep beep..."

The busy signal kept ringing.

Jiang Jingxing hung up the phone with a look of regret and reluctance.

He was determined to give his money to Su Yan, which is why he wanted to give her the money. Who would have thought the girl would react so strongly?

"Knock knock!"

Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

He reverted to his usual coldness, "Come in."

Wang Xiaoxin pushed open the door and hurriedly said, "Commander, Comrade Chen Yuwei's father is here to see you. He's in Political Commissar Pang's office and wants you to come over."

Who is Comrade Chen Yuwei's father?

Jiang Jingxing immediately knew who it was, got up and left without saying a word.

Wang Xiaoxin hurriedly followed, cursing Chen Yuwei in his heart. She was like a leech, impossible to shake off. No matter how beautiful she was, she was not worthy of their Jiang Regiment!

Jiang Jingxing was quick. He knocked perfunctorily on the door of the political commissar's office and pushed it open before anyone could speak inside.

Political Commissar Pang's smile cracked when he met the man's fierce expression, and he said with a slightly guilty smile, "Commander Jiang is here. Let me introduce you. This is Brigade Commander Chen. He's here today to ask you something."

Commander Chen sat on the sofa, exuding a powerful aura that made people feel invisible pressure.

He didn't speak, his sharp and serious eyes fixed on Jiang Jingxing.

Chen Yuwei sat beside her father, poised and elegant, with a gentle smile on her face. It was hard to believe that she was the crazy woman who had caused such a scene in Jiang Jingxing's office that day.

Wang Xiaoxin clicked his tongue in amazement. A woman's heart is unfathomable. This Chen Yuwei is clearly not someone to be trifled with. Their regimental commander must not let her ruin him.

"Brother Jiang, we meet again," Chen Yuwei said shyly.

Jiang Jingxing raised an eyebrow, showing her no respect whatsoever. "I don't know you at all. Comrade Chen, it would be more appropriate for you to call me Commander Jiang, so that others won't say our regiment is unruly."

These words were both harsh and unpleasant, and Political Commissar Pang and Brigade Commander Chen almost lost their composure.

Chen Yuwei's eyes reddened from the rebuke, her smile faded, and she put on a pitiful and aggrieved expression, staring at him blankly as she said, "Commander Jiang, are you still angry about what happened that day? I'm really innocent."

Jiang Jingxing gave her a mocking look. "Whether you're innocent or not, you know in your heart. Miss Chen's actions almost caused my fiancée and me to quarrel. If I hadn't discovered it in time and coaxed her back, I probably would have come to her door demanding an explanation."

Upon hearing this, everyone present wore expressions of disbelief.

"Your fiancée? When did you get a fiancée? How come I didn't know?!" Chen Yuwei completely lost her composure, her eyes bloodshot as she rushed towards him, trying to grab his hand. "You're lying to me, aren't you?"

Recovering from her shock, Wang Xiaoxin immediately stepped forward to shield Jiang Jingxing behind her, issuing a dangerous warning: "Miss Chen, please keep your distance."

"Get out of my way! Who do you think you are? How dare you block my path, I..."

"Yuwei!" Commander Chen, who had been silent until now, called out to her in a deep voice.

Chen Yuwei stopped speaking, looking at her father with great dissatisfaction.

Seeing this, Political Commissar Pang quickly stepped in to smooth things over, saying, "Yuwei, Commander Jiang is a leader; you need to correct your attitude!"

"Didn't Brigade Commander Chen have a question to ask me? You haven't said anything for so long, so it seems you're not in a hurry. In that case, I'll be going now." Jiang Jingxing was extremely perfunctory and turned to leave.

"Halt!" Brigade Commander Chen's face turned red and black from his attitude. He gritted his teeth and said, "I'm your superior. What kind of attitude is this? Are you trying to rebel?"

Political Commissar Pang closed his eyes.

Brigade Commander Chen really doesn't understand his place. Given Jiang Jingxing's personality, it would be strange if he gave him any face.

What's going on here?

As expected, Jiang Jingxing showed him no respect in front of so many people, saying, "Brigade Commander Chen, this isn't the 68th Regiment. You've come to the wrong place to show off your power. Your tricks won't work on me."

"Outrageous! No matter where we are, my position is higher than yours! Jiang Jingxing, don't be so arrogant. My daughter likes you, why don't you accept her? Do you think my Chen family is not good enough for your Jiang family? I don't care what kind of fiancée you have, from today onwards, you must cultivate a relationship with Yuwei. In a few days, my father will personally come to discuss your marriage with Yuwei!" Commander Chen felt satisfied after his outburst.

He was used to being the only one who mattered and couldn't tolerate anyone going against his wishes.

Especially those hot-blooded young people, if we don't curb their arrogance, won't they just go wild?!

The office was as quiet as a chicken coop.

Political Commissar Pang glanced at Jiang Jingxing's faintly smiling expression and felt utterly hopeless.

It's over, it's over, the Chen family is really finished!
