Chapter 57: Chapter 57: Be His Good Helpmate Chapter 57: Chapter 57: Be His Good Helpmate Xiao ier has always been a beauty, just without the ans and ti to dress up before.
Today, she wore a dress costing over two thousand, a watch worth hundreds of thousands, and sat in the back of a Da Lao worth millions.
No one would imagine such a glamorous and wealthy image belonged to the owner of the Willow Tree Fennel Noodle House.
She even specifically chose a bright red lipstick, vivid yet dignified, perfectly outlining her sexy lips.
Her skin was like cream, delicate and luminously fair, attracting more than a few glances from Chen Cheng beside her.
But the unfortunate part was that her relatives had not yet left, and during her protected period, it beca Chen Cheng’s silent period.
“Xiao Cheng, should we buy sothing for Mr.
Jin?” Xiao ier reminded him, “It’s our first visit, it’s not good to go empty-handed.”
After hearing this, Chen Cheng smiled and naturally placed his hand on Xiao ier’s leg, feeling her muscles tense slightly.
“Xiao Er, are you a bit nervous?”
“Yes…
a bit.”
He patted her, “I think you are very nervous, right?”
“Huh?”
“It’s only quarter past six in the morning, where can we go buy sothing?” Chen Cheng joked.
Xiao ier glared at Chen Cheng, “You’ve been there a second ti, I…”
Chen Cheng embraced her, “It’s fine, just being there is enough.”
Xiao Hai quickly drove them to the front of the club.
As soon as the car stopped, a well-trained waiter ca forward to open the door for them, respectfully calling out, “Mr.
Chen, Miss Xiao.”
Chen Cheng nodded in response, “Morning.”
As for Xiao ier, this was her first ti experiencing such a scene, she was already a bit nervous, and now even more so.
She clung tightly to Chen Cheng’s arm, nearly leaning half of her body against his, and walked with wooden steps inside.
Upon entering, Xiao ier was dazzled by the decorations inside.
“Xiao Cheng, is this place all Mr.
Jin’s?” she asked quietly.
Chen Cheng replied, “Yes.”
“This is too incredible, it’s just like the Forbidden City.” Xiao ier exclaid lightly, her eyebrows knitted slightly as she searched for the right words to express her feelings.
“He doesn’t even have a dragon chair though, does he?” Chen Cheng asked with a laugh.
“I an, this kind of feeling!” Xiao ier wrinkled her nose, “Don’t tease !”
Chen Cheng gently patted her hand, “Alright, don’t be nervous.”
“Mr.
Chen, Miss Xiao.”
At that mont, a girl in a cheongsam ca over.
It was different from when Chen Cheng had co last ti; in the morning there was no jasmine-scented towel to relieve fatigue, but her hands were crossed over her abdon, her smile confident and warm.
“Mr.
Jin is already waiting for the two of you in the back courtyard,” she gestured with a tilt of her body, “This way please.”
“Thank you.”
Xiao ier, observing the dignified deanor and respectful service attitude, remarked to Xiao Cheng, “This place is even more upscale than the place you took to the day before yesterday!”
“That’s why Mr.
Jin wanted you to feel it last night!” Chen Cheng took Xiao ier by the hand, “I’m here, nothing to worry about.”
Led by the attendant through a corridor and out the back door, they arrived in the club’s backyard.
The backyard was spacious and open, roughly five hundred square ters in size.
The Silver Edged Jade was in full bloom, with two or three gardeners attending to the branches.
“Mr.
Jin, Mr.
Chen and Miss Xiao have arrived,” the attendant announced.
Jin Baogen put down today’s morning newspaper, removed his reading glasses, with a twinkle of amusent in his eyes, “Have they arrived?”
“Good morning, Mr.
Jin.”
“Mr.
Jin, good morning.”
He gestured for the two to sit down, picked up the purple clay teapot from the tea tray, and poured a cup for each, “Getting up so early, not used to it, are you?”
“I’m alright, it’s about the sa ti I used to go to work,” Chen Cheng leaned back against the rattan chair, joining the conversation.
Xiao ier sat up straight, “When I opened the store, I got up earlier than today.”
Jin Baogen spread his hands, indicating they should make themselves comfortable, “Look at my mory, I actually forgot about this!
It must have been because of the drinks last night!”
Chen Cheng smiled as he lifted the teacup, and before he could sip, he was greeted by a fragrant milky aroma, “Jin Xuan tea, eh?”
“Mr.
Chen has a really sharp nose!”
Xiao ier also cautiously picked up her cup and took a delicate sip, the crisp and sweet aftertaste of the tea surprising her.
“Really delicious.”
Jin Baogen looked at the watch on Xiao ier’s wrist, a smile curling at his lips, “Xiao Er, the watch on your wrist is indeed beautiful, but why did Mr.
Chen only give you one?
Doesn’t your right hand feel empty?”
Xiao ier subconsciously covered her right wrist, Chen Cheng explained, “It was a spur-of-the-mont decision yesterday, I haven’t thought about what to put on the right hand yet.”
Jin Baogen beckoned soone standing not far away, whispered a few words, and the person quickly walked away.
He continued, “I have high hopes for Xiao Er.
Grounded, virtuous, and knows the bigger picture.”
A smile appeared on Xiao ier’s face, her gaze unconsciously turning towards Chen Cheng.
“Now that Mr.
Chen is starting a business with , and he’s left Wanbao Hall to you, you need to be a good partner to him.”
At his words, Xiao ier also showed a face full of happiness and satisfaction.
She hurriedly nodded, “Mr.
Jin, don’t worry.
I definitely will!”
“Eh, with your words, I feel reassured as well,” Jin Baogen smiled contentedly, “Co, drink so tea, this is this year’s first picking of Jin Xuan.”
The three chatted idly for a while.
“Mr.
Jin.” The person who had left earlier returned, holding a red velvet brocade box.
Jin Baogen took it with one hand, handing it to Chen Cheng, “Open it.”
Chen Cheng opened the box, his heart trembled at the sight inside.
It was a completely green Jade Bracelet, its crystal bright luster shining even under natural light, so beautiful it was breathtaking.
“Put it on Xiao Er,” Jin Baogen smiled with squinted eyes.
Chen Cheng took out the bracelet, and Xiao ier saw it and quickly waved her hands to refuse, “Mr.
Jin, this is too valuable.
I can’t…”
“The most valuable objects need to be worn by the right people to reflect their value.”
Jin Baogen gave Chen Cheng a aningful look.
Chen Cheng cleared his throat, the smooth and cool touch of the bracelet was familiar, he knew the value of this bracelet was at least ten tis that of the Blue Balloon.
“Sister Er,” he held it firmly, “Mr.
Jin has already said, don’t refuse.”
“Xiao Cheng…” Xiao ier’s head shook like a rattle.
Jin Baogen, “Xiao Er, I broke my routine of bird-walking today just to wait for you.
If you don’t accept it, you’ll really hurt this old man’s heart!”
Xiao ier looked at those deep, kind eyes and finally extended her hand.
“That’s right,” Jin Baogen nodded contentedly, “This suits you.”
Chen Cheng saw the ring of vibrant green on her fair skin, Xiao ier looked even more ethereally beautiful than when she arrived.
“Mr.
Jin, thank you,” Xiao ier stood up to express her thanks.
“Sit, sit,” Jin Baogen gestured with his hand, “We are all family, no need to be so formal.”
Chen Cheng refilled Mr.
Jin’s tea, “Mr.
Jin, you’ve gone to great expense again.”
“A small trinket, just wear it and enjoy,” Jin Baogen smiled casually, “Co, let’s have breakfast.”
