Chapter 376: One of a Kind
Chapter 376: One of a Kind
In the CEO’s office, Zhuang Yi was flipping through the books on the shelf.Hearing footsteps, he glanced toward the door and saw Jiang Jingheng coming in.
He closed the book and said with a smile, "You finally came, I thought you weren’t coming today."
"What’s up?" Jiang Jingheng looked at him.
Zhuang Yi frowned slightly, "What kind of attitude is that? I came all the way to celebrate your birthday, and you left me behind and went ahead."
Jiang Jingheng walked to the desk and put down his briefcase.
Zhuang Yi knew this was just his cold nature and picked up a gift box from the table to hand to him, "This is a birthday gift someone asked me to bring you."
Jiang Jingheng didn’t even glance at it and said coldly, "Throw it away."
Zhuang Yi frowned slightly, "At least give me some face..."
"If it weren’t for giving you face, do you think you’d be able to get in here?" Jiang Jingheng gave him a glance.
Zhuang Yi, "..."
That’s true, but...
He looked at him for a few seconds and finally compromised, "Alright, I won’t make it hard for you."
He put the gift away and asked, "I heard you’re dating, is that true?"
"Yeah." Jiang Jingheng opened the file folder on the table.
"When are you going to bring her out for me to meet, let me see who managed to tame this great demon!" Zhuang Yi laughed.
Jiang Jingheng replied indifferently, "You didn’t come yesterday."
Zhuang Yi was unhappy, "What do you mean I didn’t come, I came but you guys already left. No way, I have to meet her, call her out quickly, let’s have lunch together."
"Next time."
Zhuang Yi also knew time was tight, he had to return to Beijing in the afternoon.
"Alright, before long, Lu Hao will have a birthday, and I have to come again."
He picked up the rejected gift and sighed, "How am I supposed to explain this when I go back?"
Jiang Jingheng ignored him.
Zhuang Yi touched his nose, his gaze suddenly landing on Jiang Jingheng’s tie clip, and said in surprise, "Your tie clip is quite exquisite, where did you get it?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Jingheng’s eyes suddenly gleamed.
"Not bought."
Zhuang Yi looked at him in confusion, "Hmm?"
"Birthday gift."
Zhuang Yi nodded, "The person who gave you the gift must be thoughtful, such a tie clip must be hard to find."
"One of a kind."
"What? A limited edition?" Zhuang Yi was a bit surprised and somewhat regretful as he originally wanted to buy one too.
Jiang Jingheng glanced at him, "Tailor-made."
Zhuang Yi noticed his somewhat smug look and tentatively asked, "Your girlfriend gave it to you?"
Jiang Jingheng did not deny it.
Zhuang Yi clicked his tongue twice, no wonder Ning Ze and the others said Jiang Jingheng flaunted his romance at the drop of a hat, indeed.
But...
"Why did you suddenly want to get into a relationship?" he asked.
After all, this guy didn’t even have a female mosquito around him before.
"It’s not sudden."
"Hmm?"
"Why do I need to explain to you?" Jiang Jingheng looked at him and said, "I’m busy now, you can leave."
Zhuang Yi, "..."
He’s always wondered why he’s been good friends with this person for so many years.
"Alright, if you don’t want to say, forget it." Zhuang Yi snorted lightly, "I’m leaving."
He picked up the rejected gift and turned to leave, his gaze sweeping over the tie clip.
The pattern on it looked somewhat familiar to him, as if he’d seen it somewhere before.
However, he didn’t overthink it, his mind full of how to explain the gift situation to his cousin.
If she found out Old Jiang had a girlfriend, she’d probably flip the world upside down.
As soon as Zhuang Yi left, Yin Manqing came over, ready to hold him accountable.
