Chapter 492: The Significance of This Marriage!
Mu Yan briefly explained the store’s matters and then took Qin Xi along with her.Qin Xi personally wasn’t too keen on having dinner with them, but she couldn’t resist Mu Yan’s persistent coaxing.
And so, she once again became a bright third wheel.
In the private room, Jiang Jingheng sat with Mu Yan, inquiring about the opening day’s arrangements.
Mu Yan answered each question, her brows and eyes filled with smiles.
It was her first time opening a store, so she couldn’t help feeling excited, thrilled, and fresh.
Jiang Jingheng listened to her talk, his eyes seemingly glued to her, his gaze warm and sweet.
Mu Yan had almost finished speaking when she remembered Qin Xi was still there.
She glanced at the cup in Qin Xi’s hand and said to Jiang Jingheng, "Quick, pour Qin Xi some tea."
Qin Xi was taken aback and quickly said, "No need, no need, I can do it myself."
A tea poured by the big boss, she feared it would be hard to digest.
"It’s okay, you’re a guest, it’s only right for him to pour you tea," Mu Yan said with a smile.
Seeing her insistence, Qin Xi pushed her cup forward a bit and said to Jiang Jingheng, "Then, sorry to trouble you."
"No problem," Jiang Jingheng said indifferently and poured a cup for Mu Yan first, then Qin Xi.
Mu Yan noticed and gave him a glare, he should serve the guest first.
Jiang Jingheng looked at her and said, "You just talked so much, drink some water and soothe your throat."
Mu Yan snorted lightly, "Are you saying I talk too much?"
Jiang Jingheng put down the teapot, looked at her, and said with a smile, "I wish I could listen to you talk forever, but how could I bear it?"
Even though Mu Yan was used to his bluntness, she still felt embarrassed in Qin Xi’s presence.
She pinched him secretly, signaling him to stop.
Jiang Jingheng looked at her smilingly, as if he didn’t feel the pain at all.
Qin Xi had an urge to grab her bag and leave, the affection they shared was filling her to the brim.
She held her cup and continued drinking water, trying her best to reduce her presence.
Soon, the dishes were brought up.
Qin Xi saw Jiang Jingheng almost using chopsticks to feed Mu Yan, her eyes nearly popping out.
Was he treating her like a beloved wife or a pampered daughter?
She knew from the start their relationship was good, but this was too good.
Jiang Jingheng was basically the model of the perfect partner in a woman’s heart.
She felt quite uncomfortable now.
Mu Yan looked at Qin Xi and said, "Qin Xi, eat more."
Qin Xi gave her a gentle smile, "Sure!"
After finally finishing the meal, Qin Xi didn’t want to endure the couple’s display any longer and made an excuse to leave first.
Jiang Jingheng, on the other hand, drove Mu Yan back to the flower shop.
"I’ll pick you up tonight," he said.
"Okay!" Mu Yan nodded.
Just after Mu Yan got out of the car, Jiang Jingheng made a phone call.
"Help me order a hundred flower baskets from ’One Flower One World’.
’One Flower One World’ is the name of Mu Yan’s flower shop.
"Deliver them anywhere," Jiang Jingheng hung up the call.
He looked out the window to see Mu Yan already back inside the shop, trimming flower branches with a pair of scissors, continuing with her flower arrangements.
Her focused appearance reminded him of the scene when he first saw her years ago.
She was holding a paintbrush, standing amidst a sea of flowers, sketching the golden scene in front of her.
That smiling face, those clear eyes, that soft long hair, it all felt like it happened just yesterday.
Suddenly, his phone rang.
He picked it up to see it was a call from Yin Manqing.
Angry voice from the phone, "What on earth happened, why did the Zhao Family suddenly want to call off the engagement?"
"Who knows," Jiang Jingheng said indifferently.
"How can you not know, did you anger Xiyue? Don’t you know the importance of this engagement to you..."
Jiang Jingheng didn’t bother listening, hung up immediately, and put his phone on silent.
He looked out the window, his expression suddenly softened a bit.
Only she mattered to him!
