Chapter 72 Green Tea Little Flower
Chapter 72 Green Tea Little Flower
To be honest, Bai Qiu's action of picking up food was not abrupt at all. In fact, from picking up the chopsticks to putting the food into Chen Jiang's bowl, the action seemed effortless, making Chen Jiang feel as if it was all perfectly natural.
He paused for a second, then glanced back at Xiaoya, who was also looking at him with a warning in her eyes.
"this......"
Chen Jiang couldn't help but gasp.
Well... appearances can be deceiving. My overflowing luck with women has finally backfired. This is my love tribulation!
Bai Qiu acted as if nothing had happened. When she saw Chen Jiang looking at her, she smiled at him, her smile as sweet as a little white flower.
"Cough cough~~"
Chen Jiang didn't really want to get involved with this kind of woman. He wasn't lacking in women, and getting involved with this kind of woman would only cause him worry and trouble, without any benefit.
He quickly coughed twice, turned to Chen happy and said:
"Well, Brother happy, I've thought about it, maybe we should just forget about it."
"The main problem is that Miss Bai is really too beautiful. My girlfriend gets jealous easily, and if she finds out I have such a beautiful secretary like Miss Bai, she'll probably kill me... Maybe the company should assign me a male secretary. I think you'd be a good assistant!"
The male assistant behind him never expected that things would turn around and involve him. When he saw everyone turning to look at him, he quickly shook his head and waved his hands to indicate that he couldn't do it.
Chen happy naturally had no such intention, so he smiled and said:
"Ah Jiang, you're overthinking it. She's just a secretary, she's not asking you to do anything... Besides, she's my niece. Even if you wanted to do something, I wouldn't agree, would I?"
"Just consider it helping out, it won't cause you any trouble. If anything goes wrong, I'll personally explain to your girlfriend!"
After saying that, she picked up the serving chopsticks and put some food on Chen Jiang's plate.
"Come on, let's eat first, don't think about so much!"
Looking at the pile of food that had appeared in his bowl, Chen Jiang didn't know what to say for a moment, so he could only sigh, put the matter aside for the time being, and start eating seriously.
Chef Li is clearly more skilled in Southern cuisine, so the dishes on the table were generally a bit bland.
But a bland appearance doesn't mean it's tasteless. For a chef of this level, a perfect combination of color, aroma, and flavor is the most basic requirement.
This was indeed the first time Chen Jiang had experienced why the other party could be called a master... It can only be said that a great reputation is well-deserved; this Master Li's culinary skills were truly superb. After the meal, Chen Jiang was so full that he wanted to take the leftovers home...
But Chen Xi had clearly already experienced it. Although the food was delicious, it wasn't enough for him to just eat. Instead, he pulled Chen Jiang to eat a few bites of food and then started chatting about other things.
Chen Jiang could only talk to him... After about an hour, the dinner, which didn't involve drinking, came to an end.
......
Aside from some initial surprises, the meal was generally quite relaxing.
Regardless of whether this little white flower is actually tea, she certainly has a knack for dealing with people.
Chen Jiang and Chen happy chatted casually, while she watched Chen Jiang with gentle eyes, nodding occasionally in approval, or showing a smile and a curious expression.
Finally, she would look at Chen Jiang with a somewhat admiring gaze.
Chen Jiang felt a little guilty looking at her. Thinking back, it seemed like he was just asking Chen happy some common financial questions. Why was she looking at him like Liu Bei was looking at Zhuge Liang? Was he really that good?
Throughout the entire dinner, Xiaoya, who was sitting next to me, had eyelids that were practically swollen from twitching.
Finally, after they had almost finished eating, she found an opportunity to pull Chen Jiang aside and gave him a serious warning:
"Boss, stay far away from this woman... she's really dangerous, please don't fall for her tricks!"
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I don't want to mess with this woman."
Chen Jiang was still shaken.
He's almost thirty years old, and after so many years of schooling and working, he's seen his fair share of green tea bitches... but there are differences between them. Someone like Bai Qiu, with her looks and the air of a virtuous wife and loving mother, is just too devastating.
Thankfully, he's no longer a virgin, and his experience with a previous marriage has made him resistant to women. A few years ago, he probably would have turned into a simp and been completely played in no time...
"Mr. Chen."
Just then, Bai Qiu, who was already dressed, walked over and stopped two steps away from Chen Jiang. Without even glancing at Xiao Ya, she smiled and stared into Chen Jiang's eyes:
"Have you arranged a car? Or should I take you back?"
Before Chen Jiang could answer, Xiao Ya had already stepped in front of him:
"Thank you, Ms. Bai. My boss and I have already booked a car from the hotel, and it will come to pick us up shortly."
"That's good. I was just afraid you'd forget."
Bai Qiu didn't intend to pester her. She looked at Xiao Ya and said something, then looked at Chen Jiang and took out a phone with a white phone case: "Mr. Chen, I'm going to send you some company information and updates later. Let's exchange contact information first."
"......good......."
Faced with this behavior of asking for contact information while still conducting business, Chen Jiang had no way to refuse, so he could only nod helplessly, take out his phone, and exchange contact information with her.
"Alright, that's all for me."
Bai Qiu put away her phone with satisfaction: "If you have any questions, feel free to contact me anytime, and I'll reply as soon as possible."
"Okay, thank you for your help."
"Don't mention it, Mr. Chen. From now on, we're all on the same side."
Bai Qiu smiled, then bowed slightly and turned to leave.
After she walked away, Xiaoya rolled her eyes hard.
"Who's on her side?"
"That woman is really annoying... Boss, I suggest you find a chance to get rid of her, otherwise it'll definitely cause a lot of trouble later!"
"It's okay, let's take it one step at a time."
Chen Jiang sighed, then remembered the important matter:
"By the way, could you find me a car? I'm about to go out for a bit."
"Where are you going? I'll have the hotel car take you there."
"I......"
Chen Jiang glanced at the location Gao Wen had sent him and then showed it to Xiao Ya.
Xiaoya knew what was going on, and picked up the phone:
"Okay, boss, wait a moment, I'll have a car come and deliver it to you."
"But it's so late, what are you doing out here?"
Of course, he couldn't tell her everything. Chen Jiang smiled mysteriously:
"I have a friend in Shanghai, and I'm going to visit her."
"Okay, I understand."
Xiaoya understood what was going on as soon as she saw his smile. She shook her head speechlessly and sighed inwardly that all men were the same.
After glancing at his phone a couple more times and receiving a reply, he answered Chen Jiang:
"The car will be here in ten minutes. Let's go downstairs and wait for a while."
