I’m 8 Million Poor - Chapter 64
Jiang Baiwan was pulled into the car by Ji Chen half-pulled and half-tugged. He didn’t respond until he fastened his seat belt: “…No, wait a minute, where are you going to take me?”
“Eating,” Ji Chen replied briefly, then started the car directly, “What do you like to eat?”
“Wait a minute,” Jiang Baiwan took a deep breath, “Why did you come down suddenly? You suddenly want to take me to eat?”
After hearing this, Ji Chen stepped on the brake after a long silence. Jiang Baiwan was sitting in the co-pilot and rushed forward by inertia: “What are you doing? I am not happy to be the president, and want to be the **** of autumn mountains?”
“I’m jealous.” Ji Chen said suddenly.
These four words were too frightening, and Jiang Baiwan was a little suspicious of his ears for a while: “…what did you say?”
“I said, I’m jealous.” Ji Chen’s tone was still calm. He released the steering wheel and turned his face to Jiang Baiwan, “Can’t you tell? I’m very unhappy now.”
Jiang Baixuan looked dazed, and subconsciously replied: “Look… I can’t see it.”
Ji Chen nodded pretentiously: “Well, it’s not easy for me to express my emotions. It’s normal if you can’t see it. So I chose to tell you this directly because I just saw you and Luo Xiao talking. , So I’m jealous now.”
Jiang Baiwan felt that he was shocked by Ji Chen, and he wanted to say something to ease the atmosphere, but he couldn’t open his mouth.
“Maybe you won’t like this kind of jealous behavior, because I don’t know who you were in the past,” Ji Chen continued, “but I did feel very uncomfortable in my heart when I saw you talking to Luo Xiao. A feeling of jealousy, I think…I still want to convey this feeling to you.”
He explained in his mouth, but his eyes looked dark and bright, and his tone gradually began to waver: “So I acted like that on an impulse, and for that, I apologize to you.”
Jiang Baiwan said uneasily: “It’s okay… it doesn’t matter.”
Ji Chen breathed a sigh of relief: “Well, you don’t blame me.”
With that said, Ji Chen started the car again: “What do you want to eat tonight?”
“What…whatever.” Jiang Baiwan shrank his neck, and at the same time secretly spit on himself in his heart-why should I have a guilty conscience? I did nothing wrong!
Ji Chen drove the car and was silent all the way, but in the end… he stopped downstairs at Jiang Baiwan’s house.
Jiang Baiwan breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably and thanked Ji Chen. He just got out of the car, but he heard Ji Chen call her from behind: “Xiao Wan, did I scare you today?”
“It’s better to say it was an accident.” Jiang Baiwan didn’t look back. “But to be honest, Ji Chen, when you said you were jealous…that look was pretty cute.”
After speaking, Jiang Baiwan quickly ran into the corridor, Ji Chen stared at Jiang Baiwan’s back, and slowly showed a smile.
——
After he and Ji Chen were tacitly aware of something, Jiang Baiwan let go a lot. She happily went to the store every day to see the store, and then contacted Ji Chen. Life was calm but more and more realistic. Up. Occasionally I take time to think about it, but I feel that the things of the previous life are quite like a world away.
On this day, Jiang Baiwan was washing at home in the morning when he suddenly received a call from Ji Chen. She held her toothbrush in her mouth and asked vaguely: “What’s the matter?”
“Are you free tomorrow?” Ji Chen asked on the other end of the phone, “There is a cocktail party that cannot be pushed away. I have named you and I to attend.”
Jiang Baiwan was taken aback, and quickly spit out the foam in his mouth: “What reception?”
“Gu’s reception.” After Ji Chen said this sentence, he quickly explained, “Gu Dongcheng is no longer the Gu family and will not appear at the reception. This time, I signed a share transfer agreement with Gu’s family. You just have to follow me all the time.”
Jiang Baiwan rinsed his mouth and groaned for a long while: “Okay, it’s just that I haven’t attended the cocktail party. Are you afraid that I will lose your face?”
“As long as you are by my side, who dares to say anything?” Ji Chen was so aggressive at this moment.
Immediately afterwards, Ji Chen… said: “That’s it, but there are still some things to prepare before the reception. In the afternoon, Ji Ying will look for you. If you don’t understand, just ask her.”
Hearing that Jiang Baiwan over there responded readily, Ji Chen hung up the phone. Ji Ying stood by, looking at her younger brother with disgust: “Why are you not romantic at all? Calling Xiaowan is like explaining a task. Anyway, it sounds nice.”
Ji Chen glanced at Ji Ying, somewhat helpless: “I’m not good at it.”
“If you are not good at it, learn,” Ji Ying didn’t intend to let him go. She spread out her hand and stretched out at Ji Chen, “Come on, hand over what I want to bring to others in the afternoon.”
Ji Chen sighed and dialed the internal number: “Call Assistant Xu to see if the stuff arrives, bring it into the office when it arrives.”
At two o’clock in the afternoon, Ji Ying arrived at Jiang Baiwan’s door. She knocked on the door, and soon Jiang Baiwan opened the door: “Sister Ji, you are here.”
“Good afternoon.” Ji Ying said hello to Jiang Baiwan, and entered the house, “Ji Chen asked me to help, you…the way you look right now is really not suitable.”
Jiang Baiwan looked dazed, followed Ji Ying’s eyes and looked down at the coral velvet pajamas he was wearing, and then he suddenly realized: “Well, what am I going to do?”
Ji Ying reached out and poked Jiang Baiwan’s forehead: “First, change the pajamas on you, and then go out with me. Today, I want to make the ugly duckling become a big white goose.”
An hour later, Jiang Baiwan followed Ji Ying to stand in a styling company with obviously expensive decoration, and there was someone waiting at the door. Seeing Ji Ying and Jiang Baiwan coming, the man took off the big sunglasses on his face: “I’m finally here? Only you dare to let me wait for you at the door for a long time.”
“Tan Mi?” Jiang Baiwan widened his eyes slightly, “Why are you here?”
“I’m a regular customer of this company. Ji Ying asked me to help make an appointment.” Tan Mi pulled Jiang Baiwan and pushed her into the door, “Hurry up, hurry up, you are very busy today.”
Jiang Baiwan still didn’t understand what he was going to face next. When Tan Mi dragged her into the large bathroom inside, Jiang Baiwan became aware of it and became alert: “No, wait a minute. Should I take a shower first?”
“More than that, you want beauty, full body spa and various other items,” Tan Mi explained to her, “So I said, you are very busy today.”
“Wait, wait!” Jiang Baiwan pulled his coat with both hands, trying to make the final struggle, “Is it too late for me to regret it now? I don’t want to go to the reception!”
Ji Ying and Tan Mi looked at each other, and the two women’s faces showed the same grinning: “It’s too late!”
“Ah ah ah ah!!!” Jiang Baiwan’s screams came from the bathroom, and the reverberation sounded endlessly.
——
When Ji Chen arrived, he saw a slender figure in the dressing room in the inner room. He was very familiar with that back figure, that was Jiang Baiwan.
He wanted to go in and take a look, but was stopped by Ji Ying: “Wait a moment, I haven’t put on makeup yet, wait a while when everything is done, you can come in again.”
Ji Chen couldn’t, but could only wait outside honestly.
This wait lasted two hours. Ji Chen sat on the sofa outside, flipping through the magazines on the coffee table because of nothing. Just when he was bored, he suddenly heard the door of the inner room rang.
When Ji Chen looked up, he was instantly stunned.
I saw Jiang Baiwan wore a new Dior dress with a pinched waist and a big skirt. He also combed a fluffy and playful hairstyle with his casual hair on weekdays. The makeup on his face was light and elegant, and he looked so different from the ordinary look. .
Jiang Baiwan felt Ji Chen’s gaze. She stood in place a little nervously, holding her skirt in her hands: “Do I look a little strange?”
Ji Chen’s eyes moved slightly: “…very beautiful.”
Hearing his affirmation, Jiang Baiwan was relieved. He lifted the skirt and wanted to take two steps in the direction of Ji Chen. With sharp eyes, Ji Chen saw the sneakers on Jiang Baiwan’s feet and the big red long trousers inside.
Ji Chen: “…you, don’t you wear high heels?”
…
“Can’t this be covered?” Jiang Baiwan looked down at his feet in confusion, “How tired are high heels? I heard Sister Ji said that the reception will have to stand for a long time, so I specially selected one that can be covered. The skirt of my feet so I can wear sneakers in a fair manner.”
Ji Chen’s gaze crossed Jiang Baiwan and looked at Ji Ying behind her. Ji Ying was covering her face, her expression was very difficult to express.
Ji Chen silently retracted his gaze: “Well, you are right, this method is really good.”
Tan Mi and Ji Ying rolled their eyes, unanimously expressing their contempt for Ji Chen’s open eyes and nonsense.
“I also think it looks pretty.” Jiang Baiwan was also happy in her heart. Although she felt like a doll being played with during the preliminary preparations, now the whole look is complete. Jiang Baiwan looks at the person in the mirror. At the time, I felt that everything was worth it.
Ji Chen picked up the gift box he had brought from the coffee table and walked to Jiang Baiwan: “This is for you.”
“What is it?” Jiang Baiwan took it curiously, and when she opened the box, she was shocked.
I saw a luxurious diamond necklace lying quietly in the box.
Jiang Baiwan glanced at Ji Chen at a loss, and then at the gift box in his hand: “This…this is too expensive.”
“It’s okay.” Ji Chen stretched out his hand and picked up the necklace in the box. “It’s designed by my own company, so I only need to pay a material fee.”
Jiang Baiwan wanted to say something, but Ji Chen had already walked behind her. He looked at the mirror in front of Jiang Baiwan and said softly, “I will bring it for you.”
Standing in place, Jiang Baiwan only felt that he was half-wrapped in his arms by Ji Chen, the man’s cologne passed the tip of his nose, and the empty neck was irritated with goose bumps because of the cold diamond necklace.
“Is there anything you want to say?” Ji Chen’s voice sounded in Jiang Baiwan’s ear, with a smile that seemed like nothing.
Jiang Baiwan raised his hand to touch the diamond necklace on his neck, took a deep breath, and said in an emotional voice:
“That day, Duanmu took me to Metersbonwe and picked a lot of clothes and shoes. When I looked in the mirror, I didn’t know who the girl was inside.”
