Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2408: Chapter 2344: Does He Like Me?

So?

Then go find a reliable man to marry, what are you doing getting involved with someone like Hu Xiangyong?

Although Ji Yuzhi is also very pretty, and actually has a pretty good job. With her conditions, it should be very easy to find a partner.

Maybe her standards are just too high.

Chiang Xiao thought about this, but knew it wasn’t convenient to say it to Ji Yuzhi.

They weren’t familiar with each other to begin with, not even considered friends.

Ji Yuzhi was just an administrative staff at the school, so they couldn’t even be considered student-teacher relationship.

Besides, she didn’t understand Ji Yuzhi well, maybe she could remind her, but who knows if Ji Yuzhi would go and tell Hu Xiangyong?

So, she merely pressed her lips together.

"I think Mr. Hu’s conditions are really good, I also asked, he said he once had a short marriage, just half a year, his wife passed away due to illness, and since then he has been alone."

Passed away due to illness?

For some reason, upon hearing this, Chiang Xiao instinctively put a question mark in her heart.

Hu Xiangyong is already thirty-two, though of course, who knows if that’s true, but it matches his appearance. At this age, naturally, he would have been married already.

But having something unusual about Hu Xiangyong is normal too.

So Chiang Xiao even questioned whether he had really been married.

If he really had been married, whether his wife was alive or not, or if she didn’t die of illness, all these still raise questions.

"Oh."

"Oh?" Ji Yuzhi glanced at her and said, "This is odd, why am I telling this to you, a young girl? Maybe it’s because we both met him on the same day, so it feels natural to share this with you. Chiang Xiao, you haven’t answered my question, what do you think of Mr. Hu?"

Chiang Xiao thought for a moment and said, "Lots of whiskers, wealthy."

"Pff."

Ji Yuzhi couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

She laughed for quite a while, and then poked Chiang Xiao in the head with her finger, saying, "You’re really something, Chiang Xiao."

Lots of whiskers?

Wealthy?

Is that really what I was asking about?

"Besides those two things, don’t you have any other opinions?"

"No, I’m not familiar with him, what do you want me to say?"

"True, but don’t you think he’s generous and straightforward? After all, he did offer such a high price to buy your painting."

Chiang Xiao felt like rolling her eyes but restrained herself.

"Speaking of which, I actually wanted to ask you to tell him that I can’t accept his commission for the painting. If he only wants the landscape from that photo, I can do it, for fifty thousand."

Ji Yuzhi widened her eyes, "Why? You won’t take fifty thousand, but you’d take ten thousand?"

She really couldn’t understand.

Chiang Xiao shook her head, "I won’t take it because I don’t sell my self-portraits."

"Why not?"

"No reason, I just don’t like having my image hung on a wall for lots of strangers to see."

Chiang Xiao didn’t think she was being foolish.

"But, fifty thousand..."

"My value is worth more than fifty thousand." Chiang Xiao smiled lightly, stood up, "Teacher Ji, I have something to do, so I’ll be off."

"Hey, Chiang Xiao, wait a minute."

Ji Yuzhi paused, looking at her, and couldn’t resist asking, "Do you think, in your opinion, Mr. Hu likes me?"

This time, Chiang Xiao really rolled her eyes.
