Chapter 246: Back And Forth, So Much Like Love

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

When it was time to get off work, people from the customer service department asked Song Zhou and the first young master to join them for dinner.

Jiang Jingchen waved his hand and said, “I have to go pick up my wife, so 1 won’t be joining you.”

His colleagues looked at the scars on his face. When they heard him mention his wife, they felt a strong sense of disequilibrium.

If he could find a wife despite being so ugly, that woman must be after his money.

Jiang Jingchen looked at them and said, “My wife said that she can leave earlier today, and well cook dinner together at home. My wife cooks quite well.”

“Hehe, First Young Master, your wife is quite domesticated.”

His colleagues feigned laughter while they felt even more jealous in their hearts.

Jiang Jingchen was just someone who reincarnated well. Half his face was ruined but some woman still married him. Wasn’t she frightened to the point of having nightmares when sleeping next to him at night?

“My wife isn’t just domesticated. She’s also cute and is a great dancer. Her only flaw is that she’s too clingy. She texts me whenever she doesn’t see me. Look, she’s texting me again, urging me to go to her quickly.”

None of his colleagues wanted to speak anymore.

Song Zhou silently watched his young master. He seemed addicted to showing off his love nowadays.

Jiang Jingchen deliberately played Tang Beibei’s voice message on speaker phone. A woman’s soft voice rang out, “Hubby, we are done with dance training. Quickly leave work and come pick me up.”

He pressed the voice button and replied, “Okay, honey. 1’11 be there in a bit. Wait for me.”

Song Zhou scratched the inside of his ears. His young master’s pretentious act was too irritating.

Jiang Jingchen put his phone down only after getting into the car. He asked Song Zhou, “What did you see in today’s all-hands meeting?”

Song Zhou replied after starting the car, “The R&D and finance departments of Jiang Corporation are all Jiang Xing’s people. Jiang Xing doesn’t just have overall authority in the company, he also has absolute control over its management. The long-tenured staff in all the departments seemed loyal to him.”

“Jiang Corporation is huge but looking at current operating mechanism, it’s still on an upward trajectory. There’s plenty of room for growth. It’s unlikely that there’ll be any internal breach at the moment.”

They joined the meeting not only to watch the show, but also to understand Jiang Corporation.

Jiang Jingchen sneered. “A thousand-mile dike can be destroyed by the nesting of ants. A hundred-feet tall building can be burnt down by smoke from a tiny crack.”

A thousand-mile dike can collapse from the numerous holes dug by tiny little ants.

A hundred-feet tall building can be destroyed by fire due to sparks coming out of cracks in the chimney.

What Jiang Jingchen meant was that if they couldn’t change the overall situation, they could hire a few nobodies to drill holes. Once there were enough holes, they would blow smoke in and very soon, everything would be burnt to the ground.

Song Zhou thought for a few seconds before he said, “Let me discuss this with Yang Hao.”

They soon arrived at the dance studio, picked up both girls and headed home.

Ruan Qi was pleasantly surprised to see the festive decorations in the villa. She took out a box from her bag and threw it to Song Zhou.

“What is this?” Song Zhou caught the box and asked in confusion.

“It’s a Christmas gift for you. You are welcome.”

Song Zhou was surprised. “What is it? Can 1 open it?”

“Sure, but don’t be too excited, okay?” Ruan Qi pretended to be indifferent, but she glanced at him from the corner of her eyes.

Song Zhou opened the apple-shaped box curiously and saw a pair of cufflinks.

He was stunned for a few seconds before he smiled. “Thank you. 1 like it very much.”

“Don’t mention.”

Ruan Qi looked indifferent and went to check out the half-finished Christmas tree.

Tang Beibei also took out a small box from her bag and handed it to Jiang Jingchen. She looked at him with sparkling eyes.

“Although I don’t celebrate Christmas, 1 want to spend it with you. I’ve also prepared a gift for you.”

Jiang Jingchen raised his eyebrows and took the small box. He opened it and found a pair of silver bracelets.

These should be couple bracelets.

“Why did you get these?”

“Bracelets represent commitment, protection, and most importantly, good luck.”

“I thought that since adults give young children silver bracelets as good wishes, I’d give you this to wish you safety and happiness. 1 like the simple and elegant design.”

Tang Beibei rattled on, worried that he wouldn’t like her gift. She licked her lips nervously. “Do you want to put them on?”

Jiang Jingchen gently rubbed her head. “Obedient Beibei, you have the most extraordinary thoughts.”

She got him a silver bracelet because adults gave them to children.

“Then do you like this extraordinary gift?”

“I don’t like it.”

“Oh, then, then I’ll you an ordinary gift next time.”

Tang Beibei was disappointed. She also felt that it would be strange for a man to wear a silver bracelet.

“Silly girl, I don’t like it, but I love it! Put mine on for me.”

Tang Beibei looked at his outreached wrist in surprise and couldn’t help but laugh.

Liking and loving were very similar. He was just teasing her.

“Okay, I’ll put yours on for you.”

They were adjustable bracelets and there were delicate carvings on his in the shape of a dragon.

In some places, it was customary for the man to buy a pair of dragon and phoenix bracelets for his bride before the wedding.

Jiang Jingchen put the other silver bracelet carved with a flying phoenix on Tang Beibei’s wrist. She was fair-skinned, and the silver bracelet looked cute on her.

His little wife was simple and honest.

He then placed his wrist next to hers. When their bracelets collided, they looked like two hearts colliding.

The four of them decorated the Christmas tree together before washing their hands for dinner.

Silent Sister had prepared enough food to fill the entire dining table. When she served the dishes, she saw Ruan Qi in a red dress and gave her a big thumbs up with a smile.

She didn’t just look festive, she looked gorgeous.

Ruan Qi blushed at Silent Sister’s praise. She did a twirl and asked Song Zhou if her red dress was nice.

Song Zhou glanced at her and mumbled, “Yeah.”

“Just a perfunctory ‘yeah’? Boss Song, you haven’t gone blind, have you?”

“Kiddie Ruan, do you have to show off just because you are wearing a dress? How childish!”

“… Get lost!”

Seeing that Song Zhou was about to sit down, Ruan Qi went over to move his chair away. Song Zhou almost sat on air, so he stood up helplessly.

“Gorgeous Ruan looks beautiful, exceptionally beautiful. She is the brightest girl in the crowd today.”

“Hmph, you don’t need to praise me. 1 know I am!”

Tang Beibei listened to their bickering. Back and forth, so much like love.

After dinner, the four of them rested and watched TV for a while. Tang Beibei looked at the time and patted Ruan Qi’s shoulder to remind her.

“Let’s go to the study and revise for the upcoming exams.”

“Huh? You want to revise today? Beibei, are you the devil?”

“These TV dramas have zero substance. The more you watch, the more you want to watch. If you don’t keep up with your revisions, none of these will help you.” Tang Beibei was very rational about her studies.

It was also because of Ruan Qi’s drowning incident last time, which shook her. Since she was studying medicine, she must study it well. She might be able to save her own life someday.

Ruan Qi wanted to scream for help, but no one could save her at this time. She could only follow Tang Beibei to the study with a bitter face.

After two hours of revisions, Tang Beibei let her out of the study. When the two girls went downstairs, they saw the flickering Christmas lights. It was beautiful.

They went downstairs to the Christmas tree. There was a note on it asking them to draw lots.

Whatever was written on the piece of paper they drew would be gifted to them..
