Chapter 234: Chapter 234: Never Seen a Girl So Hard to Talk to
The reason she agreed to co for the al was also to see what more she would say.
When she heard them get to the point, Jiang Zhe only had to slightly turn her thoughts to understand what was going on.
They all thought that grandfather was going to leave the bulk of his wealth to her, so if they wanted to get a grip on her, they had to set her up with a boyfriend first, which would make it convenient for them to take things from her.
Jiang Zhe had thought that the tactics of official wives like Yao Xiangzhi and Ding Yuehua would be prettier and more honorable, but it turned out they weren’t much different than people like Liang Jinlan.
“So?” Jiang Zhe chewed her gum, focusing on Yao Xiangzhi’s eyes.
Yao Xiangzhi felt instinctively intimidated, locked by her pure yet almost demonic gaze.
However, thinking of her son’s current situation, she blurted out, “How about I introduce a young man to you?”
Seeing Jiang Zhe remain indifferent, Ding Yuehua understood that with her arrogance, it would take a heavier weight to move her.
Ding Yuehua explained with a smile, “This boy is my nephew, and also the biological son of my cousin. He’s quite the catch, only a few years older than you, the apple of my cousin’s eye. His future also promises great potential.”
These words weren’t just empty boasts—at the mont, Yao Xiangzhi’s husband Chen Li held a high position in Beijing, and Chen Bo’an’s future looked bright, though he wasn’t amounting to much at the mont.
She knew that Jiang Yaowang didn’t think much of Chen Bo’an, but as long as Jiang Zhe took a liking to him first, the old man wouldn’t have much to say.
“Not interested,” Jiang Zhe said, picking up her bag and standing up.
As she was so firm in her attitude and seed set to leave without hearing them out, Yao Xiangzhi and Ding Yuehua were both surprised. “Xiaozhe!”
“I’m leaving.” Jiang Zhe didn’t explain, nor did she even show that she was upset.
“Stay for the al, won’t you, Xiaozhe?” Ding Yuehua tried to salvage the situation.
It was impossible to read Jiang Zhe’s emotions from her face, “No need.”
“Jiang Zhe, if you’re unhappy about sothing, you can talk about it, right?” Ding Yuehua had never encountered such a difficult girl to speak with.
Jiang Zhe had nothing to say, the less familiar she was with people, the less she wanted to say anything; she just opened the door and left.
All Ding Yuehua and Yao Xiangzhi saw in their line of sight was the private room door slowly closing automatically.
The two looked at each other helplessly, watching Jiang Zhe walk away.
After leaving, Jiang Zhe’s eyes were sowhat cold as she ssaged Xia Enci: “Where are you?”
“With friends shopping. Have you eaten? Co join us if you haven’t.”
“No need.” Jiang Zhe intended to remind Xia Enci about a few things.
But considering that although Xia Enci was naive, she was protected by Jiang Xiruo, so Ding Yuehua and Yao Xiangzhi wouldn’t dare to set their sights directly on her.
She decided not to say anything.
Finding a spot to sit down, Jiang Zhe ordered a cup of clear tea; holding the cup in both hands, she took a couple of sips before lazily continuing to tap on her phone.
“Hey!” Xia Enci’s voice appeared behind Jiang Zhe.
Jiang Zhe looked up, “Why did you co?”
“I was just shopping nearby with a friend, I saw you. Co on, I’ll accompany you to eat sothing.”
“You go back to your friend. I’ll sit for a while,” Jiang Zhe wasn’t very hungry.
“My friend had to go for sothing. Co on, I’ll go eat with you.” Xia Enci knew Jiang Zhe disliked socializing and eting too many people, and after arranging another ti to eat with her friend, she ca to look for Jiang Zhe.
How could Jiang Zhe not understand her considerate gesture?
So, even though she wasn’t very hungry, Jiang Zhe still got up and joined her for a al.
Ding Yuehua and Yao Xiangzhi didn’t leave the private room because they had also called Chen Bo’an to co over.
Jiang Zhe hadn’t been gone long when Chen Bo’an ca in.
He appeared to be in his mid-twenties, handso but with a pale complexion and fairly pronounced dark circles, revealing the traces of indulging in pleasure.
Seeing her son looking so haggard, Yao Xiangzhi was quite frustrated, “Why have you arrived so late?”
“You know this is my sleep ti,” Chen Bo’an greeted and picked a spot to sit, “Are we starting the al? I’m starved.”
Yao Xiangzhi was truly helpless with her son, or else she wouldn’t look for shortcuts like Jiang Zhe, arranging things for her son.
Ding Yuehua said with a smile, “If you’re hungry, I’ll have the dishes served.”
After the al began and Chen Bo’an had a few bites, he suddenly rembered to ask, “Didn’t you say you had arranged a blind date for
today? Where is she?”
“Oh, the girl had so urgent matters and left in advance,” Yao Xiangzhi didn’t tell the truth.
“Weren’t you saying she really likes , and always wanted to et ? If I knew this would happen, I might as well have continued sleeping,” said Chen Bo’an, he needed to save his energy for going out at night.
Disturbing his sleep was the sa as ssing up his ti for night fun.
Yao Xiangzhi knew his temperant well, that’s why she pretended Jiang Zhe liked him, planning to pursue him and had co asking for a eting, eager to see him.
She didn’t want to trick both sides like this, but seeing her son so irresponsible, she had no choice but to resort to such asures.
Otherwise, she was genuinely worried her son wouldn’t show up at all.
She had thought once the two t, as long as there was a slight mutual interest, the deal would be sealed.
After all, despite Chen Bo’an’s frivolous, playboy nature, no one was better at winning a girl’s heart. With Jiang Zhe’s looks, he was worthy of Chen Bo’an making an effort.
Now, it seed like all efforts had gone to waste.
Yao Xiangzhi said resignedly, “Alright, alright, she likes you, but you haven’t shown up for so long. Just eat now. We can discuss this so other ti.”
Chen Bo’an didn’t take it to heart. After eating, he called up so friends and went straight to a nightclub.
Ding Yuehua shook her head, “Cousin, this matter seems quite challenging.”
“Let’s just drop it for now,” replied Yao Xiangzhi. She really couldn’t stand Jiang Zhe’s temperant and doubted her son would tolerate it either.
“Who knows where this Jiang Zhe, brought up in a humble household, gets his arrogance from,” Ding Yuehua comnted.
…
Ding Yuehua didn’t bring this matter up with Jiang Yaowang, treating it as if nothing happened.
Jiang Zhe didn’t ntion it either.
It was never a big deal to her, so naturally, she didn’t dwell on it.
Early in the morning, Xia Enci wanted to go shopping for new year’s clothes and asked Jiang Zhe if she would go.
“I’m not buying any,” Jiang Zhe pointed at her suitcase.
She had brought her school uniforms for a change.
Xia Enci didn’t push her and said, “But I want to buy so. Do you want to co with
to look around?”
She loved to look good and was tired of wearing school uniforms all the ti. She didn’t want to keep wearing them for the New Year.
Jiang Zhe had nothing much to do, so she got up and said, “I’ll accompany you.”
Xia Enci never had much pocket money before and didn’t have strong material desires.
But this ti, Jiang Xiruo finally gave her a significant amount of spending money, allowing her to shop to her heart’s content.
Her expectations imdiately rose, “Shall we go to the China World Mall?”
