Chapter 640 Jiang Budu x Tang Qing if line (HE version)
Jiang Budu: "It doesn't matter. She has her own job. She just wants to hold shares and get dividends. She won't interfere with the board's decisions. You and I still have the final say on major company matters."
Jiang Mozhou wasn't concerned about this. "What's wrong with you lately?"
Jiang Budu likes to change girlfriends. As his brother, Jiang Mozhou knows that. When they broke up, he was generous to his ex and gave her many gifts, but he still had the principles to stick to and would not give up his shares for a woman.
So much has been moved this time.
"I like her and want to marry her." Jiang Budu said, "After we get married, I'll have half of the property, so it's the same if I give it to her now."
"Why did you suddenly fall in love with her?" Jiang Mozhou had heard Jiang Rui talk about this before. He thought it was just an excuse Jiang Budu made up to avoid the blind date, but he didn't expect him to be serious about it. "When did you meet?"
Wasn't he still playing around a few months ago? How did he suddenly change his ways? Not only did the girl not believe it, even his brother found it hard to believe.
"We've known each other for a long time." Jiang Budu said, "I don't want to miss the best opportunity just for the sake of face."
Jiang Mozhou was silent for a few seconds: "What about her attitude?"
Jiang Budu: "She has only agreed to be my girlfriend now, and has not yet agreed to marry me."
"So you plan to use the trick of transferring property to make her trust you." Jiang Mozhou sorted out Jiang Budu's logic.
Jiang Budu also admitted it.
Jiang Mozhou: "What else? What else did you do?"
Jiang Budu: "I've done other things, but think about it, if someone like me suddenly changes his personality, who would believe it?"
Jiang Mozhou choked, "...You are quite self-aware."
Jiang Budu chuckled. Of course. If he still didn't know his own limitations after living his life again, he might as well just die.
"She is not materialistic, and she is not with me for my money, but feelings are too abstract, and abstract things cannot give people a sense of security." Jiang Budu was afraid that Jiang Mozhou would misunderstand Tang Qing, so he added this sentence.
Afterwards, Jiang Budu asked him again: "Dad knows about this too, right?"
Jiang Mozhou: "Well, he asked me to call and ask."
Jiang Budu: "Then explain it to him clearly and don't let him misunderstand Tang Qing."
Jiang Mozhou laughed, "This is the first time I've seen you defend your girlfriend like this. Now I'm willing to believe you're serious."
Although I don't know why he suddenly became serious.
"How did you meet?" Jiang Mozhou became more and more curious about this rumored girl. What kind of person was she that could make Jiang Budu change his mind overnight, even to the point of being completely devoted to her?
"She works at a bank. I met her a few months ago." Jiang Budu boasted a bit when talking about Tang Qing. "She just graduated with a master's degree this year and got a job at the bank headquarters with top score. She's currently doing junior training in Haicheng."
Jiang's company has been cooperating with Ruifeng Bank for many years, so Jiang Mozhou naturally knows how high their recruitment threshold is. Being able to get in with the first place score is indeed very outstanding.
It sounded different from those little stars and internet celebrities Jiang Budu had talked about before - Jiang Mozhou admitted that he had some traditional professional prejudices and he admired people like Tang Qing more.
"Then she should be returning to the North City headquarters," Jiang Mozhou said, "Whenever she comes back, I'll treat you to a meal."
"It'll take half a year. She can't be transferred back until the spring of next year." Jiang Budu said, "I'll ask her what she thinks. We'll talk about it after she agrees."
Jiang Mozhou laughed again: "Okay, you even discussed it with others. There are some changes."
"Xiran and I will have our wedding in May next year. You can bring someone over to attend if she's willing."
Jiang Budu: "Are you getting married now?"
Jiang Mozhou and Xu Xiran were also arranged to go on a blind date by their families. Jiang Budu counted on his fingers and found that Jiang Mozhou and Xu Xiran's blind date was just over three months ago. In the blink of an eye, the wedding date was set.
Really efficient.
Jiang Mozhou: "It doesn't matter if we get married early or late, as long as our parents like us, we can hurry up and get married so we can have children."
Jiang Budu rubbed his brows: "So do you like her?"
After asking this question, Jiang Budu heard Jiang Mozhou's low laugh, and instantly realized how "naive" a question he had asked - in a family like theirs, love has never been a necessary condition for marriage. Among many priorities, "love" is probably ranked last.
Jiang Mozhou and Xu Xiran's marriage is a typical business one. Jiang Mozhou is the eldest son and cannot escape this fate. He himself has no interest in love. He was a rollercoaster when he was a child and a workaholic when he grew up.
He is a very typical child from other people's families. He has never caused his parents any worries since he was a child, and even his marriage and love life have gone according to plan.
Talking to Jiang Mozhou about whether he liked her or not seemed a bit redundant.
"She's a very good person, and I admire her very much." Jiang Mozhou said, "As for our relationship, we'll have plenty of time to spend together in the future, so we can slowly cultivate it."
"For me, love is not a necessary condition for marriage, responsibility is. Whether I like it or not, I will fulfill my obligations."
Jiang Budu was in a trance when he heard this, and suddenly remembered that in his previous life, before Jiang Mozhou got married, they had also talked about similar topics.
However, at that time, Jiang Budu only listened to the sentence "love is not a necessary condition for marriage" and expressed his high agreement - he thought that Jiang Mozhou's attitude was the same as his.
But in fact, Jiang Mozhou is much better than him. Although his marriage with Xu Xiran has no emotional basis, the husband has many obligations after marriage. They live in harmony and rarely quarrel. Later, they seem to have developed some feelings for each other and are quite loving.
Jiang Mozhou has no scandals outside. Unless he is on a business trip, he will never stay out overnight no matter how busy he is. He will not do anything inappropriate during social events. If there are other women outside who throw themselves at him, he will deal with them cleanly.
As he said, responsibility is a necessary condition for marriage.
"You're right." Jiang Budu came back to his senses, sighed, and said with emotion: "Brother, there are some things I really need to learn from you."
Jiang Mozhou: "What to learn?"
Jiang Budu: "Your sense of responsibility."
Jiang Mozhou: "I'm not used to you doing this. Are you really not stimulated?"
Jiang Budu said half-truthfully, "I took a pill of regret and traveled back from the future. This is called repenting."
Jiang Mozhou was amused by his words and didn't believe them at all: "Alright, stop joking. I'll explain the shares matter to Dad for you. You can decide for yourself."
Jiang Budu: "Okay, thank you."
After chatting with Jiang Mozhou, Jiang Budu put down his phone and devoted himself to work again.
In order to pick up Tang Qing on time after get off work, Jiang Budu ate lunch in the office while reading documents.
After all this racing against time, I finally finished today's work before five o'clock.
Then, he grabbed the car keys and rushed to the bank.
