Chapter 396 Awkward Chat



Chen Jing filled a plate with the imported candies she had brought back and greeted everyone with a smile: "This is the chocolate our comrades brought back from their performances abroad. It looks dark, and I heard it's popular over there, and they use it to entertain distinguished guests."

Jiang Jun picked up a piece at random, peeled off the gold foil, broke off a piece, and held it under his tongue.

No milk or sugar is added during the production process. It is just pure dark chocolate pressed into shape, with a very rich taste.

The familiar cocoa aroma filled his mouth, and Jiang Jun's face showed satisfaction: "Delicious!"

Chen Jing specially brought back such a good thing and used such a flattering tone. It's a big change and she must be praised.

Chen Jing wrinkled her nose slightly, blinked her eyes and asked: "Sister Yun, you just hold it in your mouth like this, aren't you afraid of the pain?"

Jiang Jun shook her head. "I like the aroma. It doesn't taste bitter." Pure chocolate can increase calories and energy without making you gain weight. She has always liked eating it this way. "If you're afraid of the bitter taste, you can soak it in hot milk with a little sugar. Let's see if we can buy some fresh milk tomorrow. I'll make you a cup."

Zhang Xiongwei hadn't expected Jiang Jun to be so knowledgeable. "Jiang, you know so much. Where did you go to school? What did you study?"

Jiang Yun smiled modestly: "I haven't had much education, I just have a good memory. I can remember anything I read once."

Zhang Xiongwei was rather embarrassed: "Uh, I didn't mean it."

Jiang Jun didn't care: "I'm really envious of the good school you guys go to."

This is the truth. Judging from Zhang Xiongwei's calm and generous temperament, he definitely did not join any Red Guard faction or group in school. He was a person who studied seriously and did things steadily.

People who are dignified and generous are the easiest to gain trust from others, and they will become the backbone no matter where they go to school or work.

Xiao Xingxing was left out, watching the lively interactions between Jiang Jun and Zhang Xiongwei, with a look of complete bewilderment on her face - she had always believed that Jiang Jun could be an interpreter for receiving foreign guests because he had a powerful backer, but she hadn't expected that the backer was actually Chen Yuanwu's father - Chen Yuanwu already had a partner, so why was she still struggling?

Maybe, people had already made fun of her last time!

Thinking of this, Xiao Xingxing felt a little uneasy and felt that he was extremely embarrassed.

Chen Jing had no idea this had happened before, and she smiled and called Xiao Xingxing to join in the conversation: "Sister Xingxing, my sister Yun plays the piano very well and speaks foreign languages ​​very well. I'm sure you two will have a lot to talk about."

Jiang Jun said with a forced smile, "I taught myself foreign languages. I don't have much confidence in myself. I wouldn't even dare to become a full-time translator if Uncle Gao asked me to."

Xiao Xingxing's face was burning, and she couldn't even fake a smile: "You are too modest. We graduates of professional schools are no better than this."

Thinking of how he had been trying to show off in front of Chen Zhong and get close to him, Xiao Xingxing felt extremely embarrassed. The sense of superiority he had originally felt for being classmates with Chen Yuanwu was gone, and he couldn't chat with Jiang Jun as freely as Zhang Xiongwei did. He just wanted to leave quickly.

Zhang Xiongwei and Xiao Xingxing were classmates in middle school and university, and now work in different departments of the same company. They know each other very well: "Xingxing, it takes your confidence to be assigned as the ambassador's secretary. Don't be so modest!"

Chen Jing was delighted: "Sister Yun, Sister Xingxing is going to the United States!"

The closer she gets to Xie Lang, the greater the chance of hearing news about him. The day she wants to see her beloved Rao Nianxiang is just around the corner.

Jiang Jun was genuinely happy for Chen Jing: "That's great!"

Chen Jing shook her head slightly. "Of course! I also asked Xingxing to find out about art schools over there for me. I also want to study abroad! We can visit each other and look after each other. Right, Xingxing?"

Xiao Xingxing nodded randomly: "Yeah!"

For those who have never been abroad, foreign countries are just a piece of the world map. It only takes a blink of an eye to get there. Going from one city to another is as close as visiting neighbors, and as easy as visiting relatives and friends.

Jiang Jun smiled and said nothing. The embassy is the most powerful support in the hearts of all overseas Chinese students.

Rely on your parents at home and rely on your friends when you go out. This is the collective consciousness of the Chinese people. When you go abroad, as long as you know where there is an acquaintance you can rely on, it can at least make your parents and relatives far away in China feel more at ease.

Chen Jing enthusiastically introduced Jiang Yun: "Sister Yun, Sister Xingxing and Sister Wei used to come to my house often. Sister Xingxing was the best at foreign languages ​​in my eldest brother's class. She joined the Ministry of Foreign Affairs right after graduation and was a standout among her group."

Jiang Jun wanted to laugh but tried to hold it back, but he couldn't and started coughing.

Nervous Master Li Caixia hurried over and said, "Teacher Jiang, you haven't recovered yet. Don't get tired. Go drink some porridge first."

Chen Jing looked at Jiang Yun in surprise and asked, "Sister Yun, are you sick?"

Li Caixia rushed in: "Teacher Jiang has been ill for several days. He couldn't even get out of bed the past two days."

Jiang Jun pounded his chest and stopped coughing. "It's nothing, just a cold. I haven't been working these past few days, so I've almost recovered at home. Jing, the meal is ready. You can eat with your brother's classmates. I'll go back to my room to have some porridge and rest for a while, then come back to chat with you."

She knew that Chen Jing still needed Xiao Xingxing's help. If she went over again, the atmosphere at the dinner table would become even more awkward. It would be better for her to step back for a while and ease the atmosphere.

After entering the restaurant, Zhang Xiongwei said to Xiao Xingxing, "Chen Yuanwu's girlfriend looks young and quite talkative. I felt that the few words she said when she invited us to dinner just now were like those of an elder."

The heroine's intention to spare Xiao Xingxing is too obvious. It seems that he will be defeated without a fight!

Xiao Xingxing lowered her eyelids, her expression cold, and snorted softly: "I think she looks especially like Director Wu!"

That was the public enemy of the ladies in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, a female boss who was similar to the Iron Lady, an iron-fisted boss who was ruthless to all female subordinates.

Chen Jing didn't understand their code words and said with a hint of regret, "My sister Yun knows so many things. If she hadn't been sick, she would have made dinner tonight. Her cooking is so delicious. I want to learn a few tricks from her. If I really have the opportunity to study abroad, I can put them to use."

Xiao Xingxing felt that this was so irritating: "Is that girl the new nanny you hired?"

Chen Jing turned around and asked Li Caixia, "Did Sister Yun ask you to come?"

It's just a cold, there's no need to hire a babysitter!
