Chapter 224: Can’t Survive This Autumn (1/2)



Lin Man glared at Guo Jiang's mother.

There has to be a first come, first served order. Lin Man stood up with an unhappy look, walked out of the cafeteria, and said to Peng Yi, "I'll go first."

After Lin Man died, the smile on Guo Jiang's mother's face remained unchanged.

This made Peng Yi feel particularly guilty.

"Peng Yi, you have a boyfriend, right?" Guo Jiang's mother asked.

Peng Yi's phone happened to ring. It was Jiang Yanmin calling. He asked, "What are you doing?"

"Have a meal?"

"Eat well."

"I'm going to eat well."

Jiang Yanmin's tone softened a bit, "I made something. Let me show you."

"good."

After Jiang Yanmin hung up the phone, he took a photo and sent it to me. It was a photo of him wearing the bracelet.

Peng Yi just smiled and continued talking to Guo Jiang's mother.

Guo Jiang's mother had already heard that Peng Yi was calling Jiang Yanmin.

"I think your teacher Jiang is a very nice person. He cares about you very much." The smile on Guo Jiang's mother's face became even brighter.

"fine."

"It's like this, Peng Yi. As you know, our family makes furniture. Recently, Jiang Yanyuan's company, Jiang Yanmin's third brother, is going to launch a number of advertising businesses. We want to take over some of his work. Of course, it's a very small part. But after I came to Fengcheng, I couldn't even see Jiang Yanyuan." Guo Jiang's mother kept smiling.

No wonder he changed his attitude towards Peng Yi.

"What can I do?" Peng Yi asked.

"You want to go and test the waters?"

If it were an ordinary time, Peng Yi would never do such a thing. Firstly, she and Jiang Yanyuan were not very familiar with each other.

Secondly, if they had already made arrangements and gave it to Guo Jiang's mother out of consideration for her face, it would be too difficult for them.

"Let me think about it." Peng Yi said.

"Hey, hey - okay, okay, I'll wait for your news." After saying that, Guo Jiang's mother left.

Guo Jiang naturally asked his mother what was going on and why she was looking for Peng Yi.

Mom told me about Jiang Yanyuan's company.

"Mom, aren't you just causing more trouble?"

"Why is she causing trouble? She even sent that kind of stuff to our warehouse. Besides, you worked for her for a year. Why can't she do something as simple as talking?" Guo Jiang's mother almost roared at Guo Jiang's disloyal appearance.

Guo Jiang was simply furious.

Peng Yi thought that Guo Jiang bought her own store, and she didn't know how to repay him, so she should help him.

But if she used Jiang Yanyuan's favor to repay Guo Jiang, her morals would be considered corrupted.

After thinking it over, she decided not to help.

In the evening, Jiang Jingqi cooked bamboo shoots.

In the past, he didn't even look at the local specialties of Jiangcheng, except for bamboo shoots.

Jiang Yanmin and Peng Yi live apart. A girl like Peng Yi is very conspicuous in every way, and she might be pursued by someone else anytime soon.

So, Jiang Jingqi planned to cook bamboo shoots tonight and invite Peng Yi to come home for dinner.

Jiang Yanmin had already told Jiang Jingqi about the bamboo shoots, but Peng Yi didn't have much feeling about them, so he didn't have time to tell him.

Zhou Zi called Peng Yi and asked her to come for dinner today, and Peng Yi agreed.

Only Jiang Jingqi and his wife, Wanying and Peng Yi were at home.

While eating, Peng Yi seemed to be preoccupied with something. She knew the good intentions of Jiang Jingqi in cooking bamboo shoots, so she ate more. The more she ate, the more Jiang Jingqi enjoyed it.

"What's wrong? Are you worried about something?" Zhou Zi asked.

"No. Does my third brother know?" Peng Yi asked.

"Your third brother? He just left here." Zhou Zi replied, "What's wrong?"

"Oh, nothing."

Jiang Yanyuan just came out of Jiang Jingqi's house.

Qiao Shiyu just called Zhou Zi and said she would be going back to Jiangcheng soon.

"Shall I ask someone to take you there?" Zhou Zi asked.

"No need, I can just take a taxi." Qiao Shiyu said.

Qiao Shiyu was stunned.

After finishing the call, Jiang Yanyuan left home.

Zhou Zi didn't know where he went.

Jiang Yanyuan parked his car in front of the Qiao Shiyu Hotel.

As for which hotel it was, Zhou Zi mentioned it casually.

So, Jiang Yanyuan came.

Sure enough, at the hotel entrance, he saw Qiao Shiyu, who was anxiously waiting for a taxi. The few times Jiang Yanyuan saw Qiao Shiyu, he always had a feeling that she was pitiful. Because of this feeling of the man being strong and the woman being weak, Jiang Yanyuan had forgotten everything in the past. Even everything in the past was filled with a hazy feeling, even a romantic feeling.

He once hated Qiao Shiyu to death, but as time went by, this hatred gradually disappeared.

Jiang Yanyuan drove in front of Qiao Shiyu, stopped, and said, "Where are you going? Get in the car?"

Qiao Shiyu was stunned for a moment before she came to her senses and said, "I'm going to the airport."

"On my way, get in. It's after get off work now, so it's hard to get a taxi."

Qiao Shiyu thought about it and realized that it was true. She had been waiting for a long time and the plane would not wait for anyone, so she got on the car.

In the passenger seat, Qiao Shiyu kept looking outside without saying a word.

Everything between her and Jiang Yanyuan was over after she said "I'm sorry".

They were almost at the airport. While waiting for a red light, Qiao Shiyu was packing her things.

She took out her ID card and boarding pass and put them on the outer layer of her bag. She also took out a book and put it on the outer layer, preparing to read it after boarding the plane.

Jiang Yanyuan only took a glance to see the title of the book - "The Sorrows of Young Werther".

He was so familiar with the cover of this book, because he also had one, although he had never opened it.

They arrived at the airport very quickly. After getting off the car, Qiao Shiyu said, "Thank you."

Then he went straight to the airport.

Jiang Yanyuan took the lead.

Today, Peng Yi went to Jiang Jingqi's house and did not mention anything about Guo Jiang's mother.

She thought it was just something Guo Jiang's mother said casually, and whether it succeeded or not was not her business.

After all, the matter is Guo Jiang's own, how could he put all the chips on Peng Yi?

Unexpectedly, the next day, Guo Jiang called her again and asked where Peng Yi was.

Peng Yi said that he had just returned from get off work and was eating in the cafeteria.

Not long after, Guo Jiang's mother came to the cafeteria where Peng Yi was eating. Peng Yi was still with Lin Man.

Ever since yesterday, Lin Man has had a particularly bad impression of Guo Jiang's mother. She had said to Peng Yi yesterday, "See? This mother-in-law, with all her smiles on her face, looks like she has evil intentions. If I had a mother-in-law like her, I'd be damned! I'd rather marry an orphan. Now I feel a little sorry for Qiu Ning."
