Xu Lingran was shocked: "I didn't realize you still believed in fate!"

Jiang Deng: “…”

"Well, we have to talk about it in detail to know whether it is suitable or not. Even if you want to let Zhou Wu go, your old man will definitely be the first one who is unwilling to do so."

This is true.

When Jiang Deng thought of Jiang Zhengquan, his mood became unhappy again.

She and Jiang Xun were competing with each other in the company every day, and Jiang Zhengquan had been watching from the sidelines. Rather than letting her inherit the family business, her father obviously hoped that she could have a good relationship with Zhou Wu and settle the marriage as soon as possible.

So annoying.

Jiang Deng just didn't want to listen to his nagging today, so he ran out of the house early.

"Hey, tell me, what exactly do you think? Don't you want to get married? Or don't you want to marry Zhou Wu?" Xu Lingran asked her.

Ok?

Does it make any difference?

"I don't want either." Jiang Deng answered simply.

She is still young, why does she enter the grave of marriage so early?

"But, as for your cheap brother... Jiang Xun, you know..."

Xu Lingran winked at Jiang Deng and carefully analyzed the situation for her, "After you marry Zhou Wu, if you can bring the Zhou family in as a backing, it will actually help your career more. Wouldn't it also be more certain for you to fight for the family property with Jiang Xun later?

"Besides...if you let Zhou Wu run away, and he turns around and marries a sister from another branch of your family, you will be at a huge disadvantage."

This is the truth, and Jiang Deng understands it.

But she subconsciously resisted the idea of ​​exchanging marriage for resources, so she kept dragging it on.

If she can rely on herself, she still wants to rely on herself first.

"talk later."

Jiang Deng was overwhelmed after hearing this and waved his hand at Xu Lingran, not wanting to continue talking about this topic.

Seeing this, Xu Lingran stopped talking in time.

After finishing a cup of rose tea, Jiang Deng picked up her bag and was about to go shopping with Xu Lingran at the nearby mall when her cell phone suddenly rang.

"Hey……"

Jiang Deng answered the call, stood up and signaled Xu Lingran to go first with his eyes, but suddenly stopped halfway through.

"…What? The car was scratched?"

One minute later.

Jiang Deng and Xu Lingran stood at the scene of the accident - a parking space next to the road.

"Miss, Miss Xu..."

After greeting the two and explaining the whole thing, the driver quietly stepped back.

No, how can a car be hit even if it is parked neatly in a parking space?

Jiang Deng was in a bad mood at the moment. The car she scratched was a car she liked very much. She had just bought it not long ago and the novelty of it was still not over for her.

Jiang Deng glanced absentmindedly at the person opposite him.

A very reserved young girl pushing a bicycle.

"She looks like a college student...from Dichuan? Otherwise forget it." Xu Lingran looked at the girl twice more.

"No... I'm not, I'm an exchange student here in Teikawa..." The girl explained incoherently, and her voice sounded like she was about to cry.

“Follow the process.”

In the icy and snowy weather, Jiang Deng didn't have the patience to deal with such a person. After saying something to the driver, he took Xu Lingran away.

……

Jiang's old house.

The clock on the wall showed eight o'clock.

The dining table in the reception room was filled with delicious dishes, but no one started eating.

Jiang Zhengquan and his son Jiang Xun had smiles on their faces and were chatting with Zhou Wu who was sitting opposite them.

I've already had my third cup of tea.

Jiang Zhengquan's face gradually turned ugly.

After Jiang found an excuse to leave his seat, he asked the housekeeper again, "Where's the young lady? Didn't you call to urge her? It's already this late, why hasn't she come back yet?"

The housekeeper said with a sad face: "The young lady's phone is turned off, and the driver is not around. I only know that she went out with Miss Xu Lingran, but I can't contact her..."

Jiang Xun had no choice but to return to his seat, sit next to Jiang Zhengquan, and shake his head slightly at him.

Jiang Zhengquan took a deep breath, forced a smile on his face, and said to Zhou Wu, "Xiao Deng might have forgotten the time because she was playing outside. Look at this... Let's eat first and don't wait for her."

"It's okay. My visit was too abrupt."

Zhou Wu didn't show any unhappy expression on his face, and he didn't seem to care much about the matter. He just smiled and then naturally changed the subject to the cooperation between the two companies.

Except for not meeting the person I had an appointment with, overall, the dinner was quite harmonious.

After dinner, Zhou Wu said goodbye to the Jiang father and son and left.

On the way back.

When the car passed the central square of Snow City, Zhou Wu suddenly spoke:

"parking."

The driver was a little confused, but he quickly slowed down, found a nearby parking area, and stopped on the side of the road.

Zhou Wu lowered the car window and looked out silently.

On the pedestrian street in the middle of the square, two tall young women were holding the same umbrella, talking and laughing as they walked out of the mall gate.

One of them was dressed in red, extremely gorgeous and impressive at first glance——

It's her.

Ginger Lantern.

It turned out that she went out shopping with Xu Lingran tonight.

The two of them crossed the square and entered another tall building opposite, and their backs completely disappeared from his sight.

After a long while, until he felt the cold wind and snow outside the car blowing on his face, Zhou Wu belatedly retracted his gaze, slowly raised the window, and said to the driver:

"Let's go."

……

Jiang Deng had been out having fun until after ten o'clock in the evening before he returned home. As soon as he entered the house, he saw Jiang Zhengquan sitting on the sofa in the middle of the living room, looking as if he was ready to call him to account.

“Where did you go?!”

"Didn't I tell you that I had an appointment with Zhou Wu tonight? And you turned off your phone, making your guests wait for you all night. This is outrageous!"

"..."

"I didn't agree." Jiang Deng frowned, kicked off her high heels at the entrance, responded perfunctorily twice, and walked around Jiang Zhengquan to the bedroom upstairs.

"Stop right there! You have to meet someone tomorrow! Do you hear me?!" Jiang Zhengquan was so angry that he slammed the table.

Jiang Deng went upstairs with a thump, and then slammed the bedroom door shut.
