Chapter 561: Chapter 561: Wedding Gifts Chapter 561: Chapter 561: Wedding Gifts “President Jiang, hello, it’s been a long ti.” Bai Xiao had gone to pour tea and took the opportunity to calm her breath. Otherwise, Jiang Shaoqing, that old fox, might have noticed sothing.
She wasn’t that liberated to let others see her flushed with springti ardor.
An Zhiyuan took the teapot from her hands and poured tea for himself and Bai Xiao before finally pouring for Jiang Shaoqing. Jiang Shaoqing silently grimaced—An Zhiyuan was getting stingier, and now he was even overprotective of his wife. How deeply must he be spoiling her?
“Dr. Bai, it’s been a long ti. Big Brother An, the two of you are now well-known to everyone.” Jiang Shaoqing took a sip of tea, looking at Bai Xiao seated next to An Zhiyuan, thinking the couple really matched well, a perfect pair of talent and beauty.
Deep down, he felt a twinge of jealousy. Where was his beloved, the one he could share life and death with?
“Speak up if you have sothing to say, and fart if you need to!” An Zhiyuan’s ti of affection with his wife had been interrupted, so he had no patience for Jiang Shaoqing.
“Big Brother An, isn’t that rather rude to an old friend?”
Jiang Shaoqing could tell that An Zhiyuan was almost at the point of throwing him out.
This man was vexed—oh, a man frustrated in his desires is best not provoked.
“President Jiang, what brings you here this ti?” Bai Xiao grasped An Zhiyuan’s hand tightly, giving him a reassuring look. Her An was not in the best of tempers right now.
“Dr. Bai, you’re too courteous. Don’t call President Jiang. An Zhiyuan and I grew up together. I’m just a few years older than you; calling ‘Big Brother Jiang’ wouldn’t be too much, and it wouldn’t an I’m taking advantage of you. I’ve co to terms with that,” Jiang Shaoqing said with a very friendly and gentle manner and tone.
“Big Brother Jiang, then I’ll be frank. What brings you here today…?”
No one visits without a reason. She had just been wondering how to deal with Jiang Shaoqing, and now, he had co to her of his own accord.
Her concern for him had not been in vain. If Jiang Shaoqing hadn’t appeared, she wouldn’t have sought him out herself.
After all, Jiang Shaoqing had been kind to her, but it didn’t an she was eager to repay the favor. One life saved by the Old Master Jiang was enough to repay any debt. Everything else was because she didn’t want Shang Kaiwen to grow too powerful; it was essential to nip Shang Kaiwen in the bud and not let her beco any more influential. That woman was much crueler than she was.
Jiang Shaoqing was the best ally she could have, or else she wouldn’t have collaborated with him.
After all, she had begun to support her sister so that if all her family mbers had the strength to protect themselves, she could be free from worry.
“I heard Ayuan and you got married. I couldn’t attend the wedding because I was far up north, so I made a special trip to bring you a modest gift. Congratulations and best wishes on your marriage,” Jiang Shaoqing said as he took out a beautiful velvet box from his pocket and pushed it toward them.
“It’s just a small token—please accept it!”
An Zhiyuan opened it on behalf of Bai Xiao. It was a blue diamond necklace that glittered brilliantly under the sunlight. An Zhiyuan sighed—it really was a grand gesture. What exactly was Big Brother Jiang trying to do?
Jiang Shaoqing watched Bai Xiao remain indifferent, which truly shocked him. This girl always managed to give a sense of astonishnt at any mont.
It’s sothing significant. Most people would be moved at the sight of it, especially girls; it seed like a natural inclination to like diamonds and jewels, especially since the diamond he chose was of absolute quality—a necklace worth five million. Only Jiang Shaoqing would do sothing like this; who else would go that far?
But Bai Xiao didn’t even raise an eyebrow.
What does that imply?
