Chapter 221: Just Say It Straight
Chapter 221: Just Say It Straight
Seeing that Jiang Jinhe seemed to be responding, Jiang Yuannian couldn't wait to take a step forward, with a smile on his face, trying to show a sense of friendliness.
"Actually, I'm quite famous over there. Even though I'm not a wealthy man, I own more than ten or twenty shops."
He added proudly, as if hoping that this sentence would make Jiang Jinhe recognize him more.
"How about I let you manage all my stores when we get there? You have the final say! If you want to make any changes or add new business items, I will do it according to your wishes. I will never interfere."
After hearing this, Jiang Jinhe smiled contemptuously. She didn't answer immediately, but paused for a moment before responding coldly, "Leave it to me? That sounds really nice. What do you mean? Is it a dowry for me? I left empty-handed when I got married."
Jiang Yuannian's face suddenly became extremely embarrassed, as if his thoughts had been exposed in an instant.
After a moment of silence, he quickly adjusted his attitude: "Oh, look at me, it's really rude to not speak clearly. Then...
Six, er, no, half will do, my brother still needs to save some money to get married!"
"Oh? So you're still thinking about getting married? I didn't expect that at your age, you still haven't started a family!"
Jiang Jinhe deliberately emphasized his tone, but he noticed out of the corner of his eye that Song Yuyu's face beside him suddenly turned red, like a tomato in the sun.
"How can he be old? He is obviously handsome and elegant."
While saying this, Jiang Yuannian did not forget to tidy up his hair with his hands, trying to make himself look more handsome and charming.
When Jiang Jinhe inadvertently glanced at Song Yuyu next to her, she found that her face had become even redder, and her eyes were full of admiration for Jiang Yuannian, and she looked completely intoxicated.
This scene made her sigh in her heart: This naive little girl was so easily deceived that she actually believed Jiang Yuannian's sweet words.
Just as Jiang Yuannian was still showing off his achievements, she decisively interrupted him and called out in a rare gentle tone, "Third Brother."
This address immediately made Jiang Yuannian stop talking. He turned his head and looked in the direction of his sister, his eyes full of expectation: "Sister, just give me your orders!"
"Since you said you are still single, do you have a girl you like?"
Jiang Jinhe asked quietly, and at the same time noticed that Song Yuyu, who was not far away, was looking at this side with wide eyes, and he seemed to hear the sound of her accelerated heartbeat in his ears.
Song Yuyu, who had been secretly eavesdropping on their conversation, also looked extremely nervous at this moment, but Jiang Jinhe pretended not to notice the change in her expression. "If you don't have anyone in mind, or if you need any advice, I can introduce you to a few girls who I think are suitable."
Jiang Yuan laughed young, glanced at Song Wenqin who was standing a little further away and waiting quietly, and said with a hint of sarcasm: "You don't have to worry so much. How much do you think you know about girls? Even your husband was chosen for you by our father himself!"
"I'm absolutely sure of what I'm saying, I naturally know a few."
Jiang Jing deliberately smiled, a hint of amusement in her eyes, "Could it be that you and Zhou Xiaohui really have some entanglement?"
As soon as she opened her mouth, Song Yuyu got angry.
"what?"
Song Yuyu practically jumped up from her chair, her eyes wide as bells. "Does that notorious Zhou Xiaohui want to take advantage of Third Brother?"
Jiang Jinhe covered her face with her hands helplessly, sighed in her heart, and nodded slowly.
"Who else could it be but her?"
Upon hearing this, Song Yuyu immediately rushed to Jiang Yuannian and asked anxiously, "What's going on between you and her? How did you meet? What exactly happened?"
This sudden situation caught Jiang Yuannian off guard, and he was stunned for a moment.
He hurriedly approached Jiang Jinhe and asked with a confused look on his face, "Why is she so excited? Did you ask her to come?"
At this time, Song Yuyu realized her own loss of composure and quickly stepped aside, remaining silent.
Jiang Jinhe could only respond with a helpless tone, "Yes, I asked her to deal with you. What do you think?"
"What can I think?"
Jiang Yuannian replied with a smile, though it was a bit forced, "Sister, who is this Zhou Xiaohui you're talking about? I haven't offended anyone recently."
Jiang Jinhe rolled her eyes when she heard that, muttering to herself that she had never seen such a shameless person.
Song Yuyu really made a mistake.
Forget it, as her third sister-in-law, I have to help this lost sister-in-law find a clear way.
So she organized her thoughts and began to describe to them how she met Zhou Xiaohui and how Zhou Xiaohui said she was his fiancée.
But the main purpose was to make Song Yuyu understand clearly, because she didn't believe that Jiang Yuannian didn't know about it.
While she was telling the story, she kept observing the changes in Song Yuyu's expression and found that the latter looked quite pitiful, sometimes angry and sometimes sad.
After hearing all this, Jiang Yuannian seemed to understand something.
"Oh, you mean the woman dressed in white? She looks like a ghost, and is indeed very impressive."
Jiang Jinhe glared at him in dissatisfaction. "According to you, everyone wearing white is a ghost? You two are a perfect match, and neither of you is a good person."
"Sister, you're not right to say that."
Jiang Yuannian's tone became serious. "Nothing happened between me and that woman. I just happened to meet her to inquire about your situation. There's really no other intention."
Jiang Yuannian quickly waved his hands, trying hard to defend himself and express his innocence.
Jiang Jinhe sneered, with a hint of distrust in his eyes.
"Who knows? It's not surprising that they say one thing and think another!"
Jiang Yuannian immediately raised his hands and swore, "I swear there's really nothing. I don't have any impression of that woman at all."
"Do you have a lover in the capital? Are you a regular at any brothel? Or any other place of pleasure for men?"
Jiang Jinhe followed up with a stern tone.
After hearing this, Jiang Yuannian's eyes suddenly widened, with an expression of disbelief, "What nonsense are you talking about? Where did you hear this? How can you ask such a thing casually?"
Jiang Jinhe snorted, his tone full of sarcasm.
"Look at you, how panicked you are! Just tell me straight!"
Jiang Yuannian's expression turned serious, as if he was thinking about something.
"Sister, are you really going to help me find a third sister-in-law?"
he asked, his expression serious.
Now it was Jiang Jinhe's turn to be nervous. She almost forgot that if the matchmaking was successful, then who would be the third sister-in-law?
