Zhou Jinyan flatly refused:
“But I’m already 23. I don’t have time to waste on these things, so Miss Jiang, we’re not a good match.”
Jiang Ci said in a gentle tone:
Are you in a rush to get married?
Zhou Jinyan chuckled softly and said:
“It’s not that I’m in a hurry, but most of my peers are already married and have children. My mom is worried for me. She called this morning urging me to find a partner and get married, and if that doesn’t work out, she’ll have to go home and go on blind dates.”
Jiang Ci pursed her lips slightly, and Li Tian spoke up for her:
"With looks like you, do you even need to go on blind dates?"
Zhou Jinyan remained gentle and polite throughout, saying:
"Since I haven't been able to find someone I like, I've decided to try my luck in a different way."
Jiang Ciwen nodded gently and said:
"I understand. Now that you mention it, we're definitely not a good match. I'll be going now."
Wen Jiaojiao waited until she and Li Tian left before asking:
"That shouldn't be the case. Jiang Ci is beautiful and kind-hearted and likes you. The key point is that she's an only child. Don't you have any feelings for her at all?"
Zhou Jinyan lowered his head, discarded the cigarette between his fingers, and stubbed it out with his foot, saying:
"That's interesting, but it shouldn't cause a lot of trouble."
Her family will definitely look down on me; there's a huge gap between us, and it'll only lead to endless trouble.
Besides, I'm studying fashion design. If I really made it big using his hair...
That's not a competitor of Akino, so it's better to have no connection at all.
Wen Jiaojiao had refused Wen Zhaoye's offer to take her to the film set that morning. She had just gone downstairs to buy some breakfast when she encountered this incident. She put her hands behind her back and said:
"In the end, it's still because you don't like it. If you did like it, love would overcome all difficulties and conquer all obstacles."
Zhou Jinyan agreed and spoke up:
"Yes, just like Zhaoye did a lot for you. You must never let him down in the future."
Why bring me up out of the blue? Isn't this talking about you?
"It's all the same. Anyway, I'm going to the company now." Zhou Jin said and turned to leave.
Wen Jiaojiao had just bought breakfast and gone upstairs when A Long approached her and said:
"Miss, the boss wants you to go home for dinner tonight."
Wen Jiaojiao frowned slightly, completely unable to grasp the whole story. She didn't take it to heart and went to the film set after finishing her meal.
Qi Ying didn't come, so many shots couldn't be filmed. Wen Jiaojiao managed to film a few shots with other people.
"Director, how long will it take for this movie to be released?"
The director was unaware of Wen Jiaojiao's kidnapping. She hadn't been to work for the past few days, and Li Zhu had specifically called to ask for leave for her. However, even without this incident, considering that the production was funded by her backers, he didn't dare say anything.
He said kindly, "It will probably take about six months."
After finishing filming this drama, Wen Jiaojiao had no intention of continuing to develop her acting career. Next, she was going to buy up land on a large scale, and she really had no interest in making a pittance.
After filming the last few shots, she turned and left, asking, "Ah Long, do I not need to go to the hospital anymore?"
Ah Long: "He didn't notify me, but I probably don't need to go."
Wen Jiaojiao had actually considered talking to him to clear things up, but she was also afraid that he had a paranoid personality and wouldn't let go.
She hesitated for a few seconds, then turned and left, passing by the same Sunrise restaurant again.
The woman who had greeted the guests earlier immediately recognized her and whispered to the woman beside her:
"Last time she was holding hands with our boss while shopping."
It's not unusual for rich people to know each other.
Wen Jiaojiao didn't go inside; instead, she returned to the Jiang residence with A Long. Looking at the busy group of nannies, she said:
"Mom, who's coming over today?"
Qi Meijing stepped forward and said:
"I don't know, but we'll see it soon enough."
Jiang Ci sat on the sofa, looking dejected, and said lazily:
"Sis, you're back."
Wen Jiaojiao immediately understood what Mingtian was thinking, and she sat down beside her to comfort her:
"You haven't figured it out yet?"
Jiang Ci said in a muffled voice:
"I can't figure it out, I just can't figure it out at all, I'm starting to doubt myself."
Wen Jiaojiao knew Qi Meijing's attitude, so she lowered her voice and whispered:
"If a man isn't right, just find another one."
Jiang Ci felt a void in her heart. She lay back on the sofa, just as Jiang Peitian walked in. He saw the empty dining table and said:
"Didn't I tell you to prepare in advance?"
Jiang Ci said with little interest:
"It hasn't been served yet."
Suddenly, the sound of a car engine came from inside the courtyard again. Wen Jiaojiao paused in her tea-drinking. As the back door opened, Wen Zhaoye's figure was revealed. His handsome face was cold and stern, and his thin lips were tightly pursed. Only when he glanced at Wen Jiaojiao did a hint of tenderness appear in his eyes.
Wen Jiaojiao's pupils dilated involuntarily as she instantly recalled countless possible relationships between the two. After all, Wen Zhaoye and Jiang Peitian in the book were completely unrelated and had never even appeared together in a chapter.
Jiang Ci nudged her arm and said:
"Sis, isn't this your boyfriend?"
Wen Jiaojiao stiffly put down her teacup and said:
"I don't even know who he is anymore."
Wen Zhaoye walked up to her, raising his eyebrows slightly, and said:
Why are you looking at me with such unfamiliar eyes?
Wen Jiaojiao gasped and exclaimed in surprise:
"Shouldn't you be looking at me like that? How did you two end up together?"
"He is my son."
Jiang Peitian's words resounded like a thunderclap in the area.
The three people in the living room had different expressions.
After a long pause, Wen Jiaojiao finally found her voice and said:
"You're not one of those people at the hospital, are you?"
Wen Zhaoye said in a gentle voice:
"That was just an extraordinary measure for an extraordinary period of time."
