"puff--"

Upon hearing this, Shen Jingjing couldn't help but burst out laughing, and then quickly denied it, saying, "Sorry, I choked on my saliva."

Jiang Yuanliang did not analyze the situation, nor did he intend to give the other party a chance to question Shen Jingjing. He continued, "Secondly, Mr. Wang said that you have one child and intend to have Ms. Shen have another child for you. I have doubts about this matter."

"Leaving aside the success rate and risks of Ms. Shen's advanced age childbirth, Mr. Wang, you don't seem to have any healthy fertility either."

No man could remain unmoved by such a statement.

Mr. Wang's face immediately turned red, and he angrily said, "What are you saying! I'm perfectly healthy!"

Jiang Yuanliang raised an eyebrow without flinching: "No man will admit he's no good, but one has to accept getting old. In this respect, my youth gives me an even greater advantage. First, I'm unmarried and have no children. Second, I've never thought about asking Ms. Shen to have another child for me, or even specifically asking for a son, since there's no throne in my family to inherit."

"Of course, if Ms. Shen wants to have a child, I obviously look to be more fertile than you, Mr. Wang."

At this point, Mr. Wang's face was already red, and he looked like he was trying his best to hold back his anger.

Seeing this, Aunt Wang quickly said to Shen Jingjing, "Jingjing, you need to understand that what a woman needs in her later years is someone to rely on. Mr. Wang's business is so big, do you think you won't have a good life if you're with him?"

“Speaking of business,” Jiang Yuanliang said at the opportune moment, delivering the final blow to the opponent’s proudest trump card: “My company mainly deals in minerals, natural gas, real estate, and large-scale physical economy projects. The company’s annual profit is nearly one million.”

"How could that be!" Mr. Wang's eyes narrowed upon hearing this, and he shook his head in disbelief: "There are no more than ten companies in the entire country with assets exceeding one million. Don't try to scare me!"

"My name is Jiang Yuanliang."

Mr. Wang: !

"You...you are Jiang Yuanliang?"

Mr. Wang jumped up from his chair in shock, staring at the man in front of him in disbelief, feeling a chill run down his spine.

Jiang Yuanliang maintained a calm and composed demeanor throughout. He could have revealed his identity from the beginning to intimidate the other party, but he chose to reason with them instead.

But was he really being reasonable?

Actually, that's not the case. He felt that the other person's words insulted Ms. Shen, so he got angry!

He wanted to humiliate Ms. Shen and make the man in front of him understand that he was utterly worthless and not even worthy of carrying Ms. Shen's shoes!

A business card appeared on the table, but Mr. Wang didn't dare to reach for it. He just stared at the words on the card from afar.

Jiang Yuanliang, Chairman of Jiangdong Group!

Judging from the other person's reaction, Jiang Yuanliang knew that this person should behave himself. He then turned to look at Aunt Wang, who was dumbfounded.

"Auntie, you see, even someone like me, with my qualifications, is struggling to win over Ms. Shen. You shouldn't just send any Tom, Dick, or Harry to her. If you really want to introduce someone in the future, they'll have to be better than me, right?"

Although Aunt Wang is old, Jiangdong Group is a large conglomerate known to all Chinese people.

How many men in the whole country can be found who are more outstanding than Jiang Yuanliang?

"Jingjing, look at you! You didn't tell your aunt sooner that someone was pursuing you. Now you've made a fool of yourself," Aunt Wang said with an embarrassed smile, coming back to her senses.

Shen Jingjing wasn't stupid; she knew that Jiang Yuanliang was helping her out of a predicament and also venting her anger for her.

She naturally wouldn't expose him, and went along with it, saying, "Aunt Wang, you didn't even tell me beforehand. You and Mom just like to surprise us."

"It's my fault, it's my fault." Aunt Wang stood up awkwardly and called to Mr. Wang, who was still stunned, "Mr. Wang, let's go. This time it was my fault for not understanding the situation."

She couldn't afford to offend either side. Having been a matchmaker her whole life, this was the first time she had encountered a situation like this.

Mr. Wang entered with an air of arrogance, but left dejected. The words Jiang Yuanliang had just spoken kept echoing in his mind, making him feel both depressed and ashamed.

As soon as the person left, the room became instantly quiet, and even breathing felt easier.

Shen Ci and her brother came out of the room again after hearing the door close.

The house was small, and the two of them, pressed against the door, heard everything that had just happened. Shen Xing gave Jiang Yuanliang a thumbs up and praised, "Uncle Jiang, you're amazing! I almost wanted to applaud you from inside after hearing what you just said."

Jiang Yuanliang smiled slightly, the smile reaching his eyes. He then turned to Shen Jingjing and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Ms. Shen. I said those things without consulting you. I think the other party was really impolite and doesn't deserve you."

"Mr. Jiang, you don't need to apologize to me. I should be thanking you. If it weren't for you, I really wouldn't know how to handle this situation," Shen Jingjing said sincerely.

She has worked in the service industry her whole life, and her greatest skill is to endure humiliation and serve others. Saying no and refusing is really not easy for her.

"I'm glad you're not angry. Someone like you deserves a better future."

He returned to his original sincere self, completely different from the sharp and oppressive aura he had when facing Mr. Wang.

"It's getting late, so I won't bother you any longer." Jiang Yuanliang glanced at the time and said goodbye tactfully.

Just then, Shen Ci suddenly spoke up: "Uncle Jiang, have you had dinner? My mom made Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. Would you like to have some before you leave?"

Shen Jingjing: "Aci, Mr. Jiang, he..."

"Isn't this going too far?" Jiang Yuanliang interrupted Shen Jingjing half-jokingly, his attempt to leave abruptly halting.

Shen Ci smiled and said, "How could that be? Uncle Jiang, you solved a big problem for my mother. After this, Grandma Wang should no longer introduce blind dates to my mother. We should thank you."

He then looked at his mother and asked, "Right, Mom?"

Shen Jingjing forced a smile and nodded, "Yes, it's just that I made this Buddha Jumps Over the Wall in a rather home-style way, and I was afraid Mr. Jiang wouldn't be used to it."

Shen Xing quickly replied, "Mom, you're being modest. Your Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is very authentic; it's been stewing for two days and two nights."

"Uncle Jiang, please sit down. I'll get you some. There's abalone, sea cucumber, fish lips, tendons, and scallops. What would you like to eat? I'll get you more." Shen Xing said as she headed for the kitchen.

Then Jiang Yuanliang said, "I want to eat them all."

"No problem, enough!"

Shen Jingjing looked at her daughter with a wry smile, while Shen Ci blinked innocently, as if to say, "Great kindness needs no thanks, it's only right to let them stay and finish their Buddha Jumps Over the Wall soup."

Shen Jingjing seemed to understand, let out a soft breath, and then greeted him, "Mr. Jiang, please sit down. We happen to have some good Pu'er tea at home, which goes perfectly with Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. I'll go and brew you a pot."
