Chapter 381: Deception

Jiang Xin was about to agree excitedly when she realized what Jing Chen was saying. She looked at Jing Chen meaningfully. “Jing Chen, this is a decision that only my grandfather can make. I can’t make the decision.”

“Miss Jiang, you’re thinking too much. You’re the only daughter of the Jiang Family and have been doted on by Old Master Jiang since you were young. How can he bear to reject you?”

Jiang Xin completely reacted. She shook her head hard. “That’s impossible. Jing Chen, we have to hold a wedding before signing the contract. When the time comes, the Jiang family will not only provide according to the contract, but there might also be other things besides the contract.”

Jing Chen had originally planned to deceive Jiang Xin. Just as he was about to succeed, she actually reacted.

The deception failed, but it did not matter.

“Miss Jiang, why do you think I will definitely marry you?” Jing Chen asked.

“Because, of course…”

Jiang Xin almost blurted out that Su Wan would leave, but how could she leave so quickly?

“Of course it’s for the cooperation between the two companies,” Jiang Xin quickly changed her words.

She could not let Jing Chen know that she asked Su Wan to leave.

Otherwise, Jing Chen would definitely think that she was very scheming.

Jing Chen took in Jiang Xin’s every move and naturally did not miss the scheming look in her eyes. He sneered silently. “Miss Jiang, if I have to marry a woman every time I negotiate a collaboration, won’t I become like the emperor of ancient times and have a harem of three thousand beauties?”

Jiang Xin was stunned. “What do you mean?”

“Literally.” Jing Chen did not want to explain further, but he felt that this was a little ridiculous.

Didn’t ancient emperors take in the daughter of a minister as their concubine to stabilize their rule?

But this was not ancient times. There was no need for him to marry a woman he did not love just for a collaboration.

With that, Jing Chen went back to work, leaving Jiang Xin stunned.

After Jiang Xin reacted, she stomped her feet in anger.

She had been fooled by Jing Chen twice today!

Jiang Xin picked up her bag angrily and glared at Jing Chen. “Jing Chen, I will make you marry me willingly!”

Then she hurried out of the office.

Jing Chen looked up in the direction where Jiang Xin left, then looked down at the document in his hand and put it aside.

Actually, the document was empty. It was nothing more than a few pieces of white paper. It was just for show.

Su Wan was browsing Weibo at home in boredom and looking at the recent news when a message suddenly popped up on her phone.

[You still have two days to consider.]

Su Wan knew who sent it at a glance, but now, she was very calm.

Two days was enough to discuss with Jing Chen.

However, he was so anxious to rush her…

When Jing Chen returned home at night, Su Wan couldn’t wait to meet him. “Jing Chen, did you look for Miss Jiang today?”

If Jing Chen had not said anything to Jiang Xin, she would not have been so anxious.

“What did she say to you again?” Jing Chen looked at Su Wan.

Hearing this, Su Wan understood that her guess was right. She took out her phone and showed Jing Chen the message Jiang Xin had sent her.

Jing Chen glanced at it and rubbed Su Wan’s head gently. “Two days is enough.”

“Wan wan, I still lack something, but I’ll be able to gather it soon. I just need you to suffer for the time being. Go to Xia Jing’s house and stay there for a while. I’ve already contacted her. When I’ve settled everything here, I’ll personally pick you up.”

When Su Wan heard this, she was a little unhappy. “Do you want to face this alone again? We clearly agreed to resolve it together. Why are you still sending me away?”

Jing Chen placed his hands on Su Wan’s shoulders and looked into her eyes. “Wan wan, listen to me. I’m not trying to chase you away. It’s just that you’re pregnant now. I’m really afraid that something will happen to you. Although Jiang Xin is not Bai Lian, you have to be wary of her.”

Su Wan raised her hand to brush Jing Chen’s hand away and turned around with her back facing Jing Chen. “I won’t leave. Since you have a way to not marry Jiang Xin, I also have a way to deal with her provocation.”

She was not afraid of Jiang Xin.

After Bai Lian, she had grown a lot.

But she was dissatisfied with Jing Chen’s actions.
