After being reborn, the scumbag CEO begs me to remarry him every day.
Chapter 14 Manchu and Han Banquet
The next morning, Tang Xia woke up before the alarm clock rang.
It wasn't that she didn't want to sleep in, it's just that she needed to use that time to study.
If she wants to negotiate with Jin Xinghan, she must have enough leverage.
About two hours later, Tang Xia used a breast pump, went to see Niannian, and then returned to the ward. She changed into clean and tidy clothes and put on some light makeup.
Her complexion hasn't looked good lately.
Around 10 o'clock, Jin Xinghan finally sent her a message.
Come down, I've arrived.
Okay, I'll be right there.
Jin Xinghan changed his car today, a black Cayenne, but he was still very low-key.
Just as he was about to open the back door, the passenger window suddenly rolled down, and a deep, magnetic voice said, "Sit in the front."
Tang Xia then realized that Jin Xinghan hadn't brought a driver today.
She originally wanted to ask if Jin Xinghan's body could handle it, but she felt that the question was rather impolite, so she ultimately chose to remain silent.
Jin Xinghan drove very smoothly, and Tang Xia barely felt any bumps. In addition, she had gotten up too early in the morning, and unknowingly fell asleep against the car window.
When Tang Xia woke up, she found that the car was already parked in the underground garage.
She was covered with Jin Xinghan's suit jacket.
Touching the same expensive fabric, she couldn't help but recall the one she had soiled that day.
Knowing the expensive price of the garment, Tang Xia dared not wash it with water and waited for an opportunity to send it to a dry cleaner.
Tang Xia handed the coat back and said softly, "Thank you, Mr. Jin."
Jin Xinghan gave a cold "hmm": "Didn't you sleep well last night?"
Tang Xia shook her head: "I've just been feeling a bit tired lately."
Giving birth is physically demanding.
Generally, new mothers will eat a lot of supplements to help their bodies recover after giving birth.
But the Qiao family wouldn't even let her eat dumplings.
The so-called postpartum meals were just leftovers to fob her off; she barely ate a few bites of food before they were thinking about how to force her to wash the dishes.
How could Tang Xia possibly recover her health in such a short time?
Upon hearing her words, Jin Xinghan frowned slightly, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.
What was meant to be words of concern turned into a cold admonition: "If you still want to take care of Niannian, you can't keep ruining your health like this. The Qiao family doesn't care about you, but don't you care about yourself? With a mother like you, the child will only suffer."
Tang Xia could still take the first half of his words as well-intentioned, but the last sentence pierced her heart.
The thing she regretted most in her past life was not being able to take good care of Niannian, which led to her tragic death on New Year's Eve.
Tang Xia wasn't entirely without her quirks either, and she retorted directly, "Mr. Jin, aren't you being a bit too nosy? Whether I'm a good mother or not is probably none of your business as an outsider to judge."
Seeing the pain in Tang Xia's eyes, Jin Xinghan realized that he might have been a bit too harsh with his words.
He turned his head to face forward.
“I’m sorry, that’s not what I meant. I just hope you can take care of yourself, so that…” Jin Xinghan’s Adam’s apple bobbed as he tried to find a reason that the other party could accept, “so that our cooperation can continue.”
Tang Xia also tried to calm herself down.
She wasn't stupid; she could tell that Jin Xinghan's words were actually meant to provoke her.
"In that case, let's talk about cooperation directly."
Jin Xinghan glanced at his watch and said, "It's getting late. Let's go upstairs and talk while we eat. Consider it an apology for my rude behavior earlier."
Tang Xia did not refuse.
Since the other party has given her an out, she doesn't need to keep putting on airs.
Two days later, Tang Xia returned to that very upscale office.
Last time, the two parted on bad terms here, and she never thought she would come back again.
Jin Xinghan made a phone call.
A short while later, someone pushed a food cart in.
"Mr. Jin, Ms. Tang, lunch is ready."
Looking at the dazzling array of dishes in front of her, Tang Xia, who had lived two lives, couldn't help but be speechless.
This is just too exaggerated.
Jin Xinghan calmly replied, "I didn't know what you liked to eat, so I had someone make a little extra."
Tang Xia also noticed that the sign on the food cart seemed to be the name of a postpartum care center.
She only confirmed her idea when her assistant brought the food to her.
This was actually a postpartum meal that Jin Xinghan specially ordered for her.
"Ms. Tang, this is a morel and matsutake mushroom soup. To ensure a balanced diet, we've also included fresh meat wontons and steamed yam, which will help you replenish your fluids and nutrients. Of course, if you don't like these, we have other set meals available for you to choose from."
On the second tier of the dining car is a soup made with fish maw, barley, and poria cocos, served with steamed pork ribs and stir-fried seasonal vegetables.
There are even third and fourth layers.
Tang Xia stared at the pile of food, completely speechless.
Seeing her expression, Jin Xinghan mistakenly assumed that she didn't like any of these options, and raised his hand to call his assistant to ask him to change to another postpartum care restaurant.
"No, no, no!" Tang Xia quickly waved her hand and explained, "I was just too surprised and hadn't recovered yet. Mr. Jin, please don't trouble yourself."
Jin Xinghan is indeed incredibly considerate.
If he really is her husband, the father of her children...
Tang Xia didn't dare to think any further.
The richest man in S City, the president of Huanyu Group, is someone I can't possibly associate with.
Jin Xinghan waved for the food delivery manager to leave.
"Eat first, then we can talk."
"Thank you, Mr. Jin."
Tang Xia was indeed hungry, and since she hadn't had a proper postpartum meal in the past few days, she stopped being reserved and picked up her bowl and spoon to start eating.
After she finished her bowl of soup, she suddenly remembered that another person in the office hadn't eaten either.
Tang Xia immediately felt a little embarrassed: "Mr. Jin, won't you eat something?"
"I'm not hungry yet, and besides, this is a postpartum meal."
Since the other party had said that, Tang Xia didn't care anymore.
Anyway, she was just being polite.
Tang Xia was enjoying her meal and didn't notice that the man sitting on the other side of the sofa had his eyes fixed on her, not on the documents in his hands.
The portion sizes of the postpartum meals were far too large for Tang Xia to finish, so she wanted to pack the rest up and take them home.
"Mr. Jin," Tang Xia said cautiously, "Could I have a takeout container? It would be such a waste if we couldn't finish it."
Jin Xinghan glanced at the dining table. Tang Xia had eaten quite a lot. He nodded and said, "Okay."
Tang Xia breathed a sigh of relief.
Now, let's get down to business.
She took out her graduation certificate and outstanding graduation project from her bag and handed them to Jin Xinghan, getting straight to the point and stating her conditions: "Mr. Jin, I hope that I can have the opportunity to work for Huanyu Group."
Jin Xinghan frowned.
He truly hadn't expected Tang Xia's additional condition to be this.
Tang Xia looked at her expression and continued, "Although I don't know why you chose to help me and Niannian, I, Tang Xia, will never take something from someone else for nothing. If you're willing, I'd like to work for you and pay you back when I've earned enough money..."
Tang Xia's voice grew softer and softer.
She was too ashamed to say that last sentence.
The wait for the answer was excruciating.
She finally breathed a sigh of relief when she heard a "good".
"Jin Xinghan, thank you."
