"Really? You swear." Jiang Xiaoli still couldn't believe that things had turned over so easily today.
Zong Jia shook his head with a wry smile, then raised three fingers in a serious manner.
"I swear I'm not angry, don't worry."
Jiang Xiaoli finally smiled and began to talk at length about what happened on the Monza circuit that day.
"You know what? The car I drove today is the same model as the champion's!"
"The feeling of speeding along is so exhilarating!"
"Ayu, I want to be with you next time!"
"..."
Actually, Zong Jia was very angry when he heard that she had raced with someone because of a contract, but when he saw her looking guilty and begging for forgiveness in the video, afraid of being scolded, his heart couldn't help but soften.
As she vividly described the scene of today's competition, Zong Jiayu's lips involuntarily curled up slightly.
At the same time, he began to reflect on himself, wondering if he had really interfered too much with her.
Because... he rarely saw her show such a strong interest in anything other than making money.
Jiang Xiaoli finished recounting the entire process of her competition, only to find that the person opposite her seemed to have lost focus.
She waved her hand in front of the camera, "Hello! Ayu, did you get stuck?"
Zong Jiayu smiled and shook her head. "No, I was just thinking that since you like these things, I should accompany you in the future."
She was a little incredulous, and couldn't help but ask, "Are you possessed by a ghost?"
Where has her reliable and steady husband, with his old-fashioned cadre style, gone?!
Zong Jiayu smiled and said, "Little Pear, I'm serious. I shouldn't stop you from pursuing the things you like. I want to see you happy."
Jiang Xiaoli was stunned; she really hadn't expected him to say that.
She thought for a moment, "But don't you think it's a bit dangerous?"
Zong Jia chuckled softly, "As long as you're alive, you're always in danger. I want to see you happy. From now on, I'll stay by your side and help you keep an eye on your safety, okay?"
Her lips curved upwards, and her eyes crinkled into crescent moons. "Ayu, you're so kind."
She raised her hand and swore, "I promise to follow the instructions of safety officer Ayu in everything!"
Zong Jiayu smiled and nodded, "Then we've reached an agreement?"
"Yes, it's a promise!"
She checked the time. "Alright, Ayu, it's getting late over there. Get some rest. I'm going downstairs to have dinner with Uncle Xiao and the others."
Zong Jia replied, "Okay, go eat quickly. Also, I miss you a lot."
Jiang Xiaoli smiled and blew him a kiss at the camera, "Mwah, I miss you too."
After the video ended, she happily packed her things and went downstairs.
Suddenly she understood why Xiao Muyu and Jiang Chengle could still have such a passionate relationship despite their cross-border romance.
It's naturally fun to spend every day together, but there's also a special joy in looking forward to seeing each other every day when we're thousands of miles apart.
In the restaurant, Xiao Jincheng saw her walking briskly and teased her with a smile, "Little Pear is really something, she's won Ayu over so quickly?"
Jiang Xiaoli frowned, looking displeased. "Uncle Xiao, do you want him to make things difficult for me a little longer?"
Xiao Jincheng quickly waved his hand, "Don't talk nonsense, I didn't mean that!"
"Haha, just kidding!"
During dinner, Zou Nan suggested, "Mr. Xiao, let's just sign the 'Hambaberg' contract tomorrow. We can split up tomorrow, and if all goes well, we can fly to the United States this weekend as planned."
Xiao Jincheng nodded, "Sure, Little Pear. Joseph has such a strange temper. You should go to 'Hamburg' to sign the contract tomorrow. We'll go somewhere else."
Jiang Xiaoli had no objection, "Okay, whatever you say."
On Friday, she took Cao Jie to "Hamburg" to sign the contract. Joseph was not there, but his assistant was very cooperative.
After discussing some minor details, both parties had their legal counsel carefully review the contract, and the matter was resolved in just one morning.
During lunch, Jiang Xiaoli asked, "Cao Jie, we don't have anything to do this afternoon, would you like to go out for a walk?"
This is the world's design capital, the center of fashion and art, where countless fashion-conscious girls flock to shop every year.
However, Cao Jie wasn't very interested in these things. "Chairman Jiang, I usually wear work clothes or something, so I don't have any particular requirements for clothes. If you want to go shopping, I'll accompany you and carry your bags."
She chuckled softly, "Okay, then let's go for a walk after we finish eating."
Standing on Via Montenapoleone, you are surrounded by century-old Italian buildings, each shop a boutique, almost all of them high-end luxury.
Jiang Xiaoli glanced around. "This is the target area of 'Jinghua Center'."
If "Jinghua Center" can be developed into an internationally renowned shopping mall like Rue de Montenapoleone, then it will be a great success.
Cao Jie honestly said, "Chairman Jiang, this place has developed over many years to become what it is today. I think the 'Jinghua Center' has a bright future."
Jiang Xiaoli admitted that she was very superficial; she just liked to hear such auspicious words.
She smiled and said, "You're right, let's go for a walk."
She couldn't remember the last time she went shopping. With Cao Jie by her side, the two of them strolled along the street, visiting one shop after another.
She might own a clothing company, so she can't be completely objective and impartial when she goes shopping.
As she strolled around, she couldn't help but think of her two "daughters," "Five" and "Pentagon."
More than two hours later, she hadn't bought many things, but her mind was full of ideas.
Back at the hotel, she turned on her computer and began writing down her thoughts and experiences from the day's shopping trip.
Clothing design, trending elements, color matching...
She compiled a list of almost all the elements that a brand should have that appeal to her two daughters.
More than an hour later, a complete trend analysis report emerged.
She read it twice, corrected any inaccurate wording, and then sent it to her two "dear daughters," who are currently the heads of the design department.
Jiang Xiaoli stretched and glanced at Cao Jie, who was sitting quietly reading a book.
"Have Uncle Xiao and the others returned?"
Cao Jie slipped a bookmark into the book. "You're back. President Xiao wants you to go to his room when you're done with your work."
She nodded and then went to knock on the door of the room next door.
Xiao Jincheng was on the phone with Xu Feng when he heard him explain, "Nobody! It was Xiao Lizi!"
He then handed her the phone, and Jiang Xiaoli laughed and said, "Auntie, are you checking up on him because you don't trust him? Haha, I assure you, Uncle Xiao is absolutely a model citizen!"
Xu Feng was amused by her, "I've been watching you two go out together, so I'm afraid you're the one taking care of him more often?"
She immediately denied it, saying, "Auntie, Uncle Xiao really took good care of me. You and Mom can rest assured."
"Okay, I'm relieved to hear that. I'll hang up now."
Jiang Xiaoli asked, "Auntie, aren't you going to chat with Uncle Xiao a little longer?"
"No, you guys talk about serious matters, I'm going to rest."
