“Thank you, Mr. Jiang!” Jing Chen looked happy. At the same time, he reached out to shake Jiang Tian’s hand. “Happy cooperation!”
After that, Jing Chen got up and left.
As soon as she walked out of the Jiang Family villa, she bumped into Jiang Xin, who had just returned. Jiang Xin immediately saw Jing Chen.
Originally, this kind of encounter was very happy for her, but at this moment, when she saw the smile on Jing Chen’s face, her heart skipped a beat.
“Jing Chen, what conditions did you raise with Grandpa?” Jiang Xin couldn’t wait to go forward and ask, “Are you not going to marry me?”
On the way back, Jiang Xin kept thinking about what Su Wan had said. She could not think of what conditions Jing Chen would use to negotiate with Grandpa.
Now that she saw Jing Chen smiling so happily, her heart was in a mess.
“Of course it’s some conditions that tempted Old Master Jiang.” Jing Chen stopped smiling and looked down at Jiang Xin. “But I won’t marry you. I’ll convince my mother to acknowledge you as her goddaughter. You’ll be my sister from now on.”
Hearing this, Jiang Xin suddenly became agitated and shouted at Jing Chen, “Who wants to be your sister? I only want to marry you! What’s so good about that Su Wan? She doesn’t match your family background. I have a good family background and education. I’m the most suitable person to stand by your side!”
Unexpectedly, after Jing Chen heard this, his face suddenly darkened and he said coldly, “Jiang Xin! You’d better watch your words! In my heart, she’s the best. No one can compare to her!”
“You like me because of your obsession. So what if you really marry me? There won’t be any feelings between us. Stop dreaming!”
With that, Jing Chen walked around Jiang Xin, got into the car, and left quickly, leaving Jiang Xin in a daze.
Dreaming?
Jiang Xin laughed self-deprecatingly.
She had liked Jing Chen since she was young. Even though she had been overseas for more than ten years and had countless suitors, she only cared about Jing Chen.
But in Jing Chen’s heart, her love was defined as obsession. He said that she was dreaming?
No, she had to marry Jing Chen.
Jiang Xin thought of something and rushed into the house to find Jiang Tian.
Jiang Tian smiled when he saw Jiang Xin return. “Xinxin is back? Grandpa has news for you.”
Seeing her grandfather smiling so happily, Jiang Xin suddenly had a glimmer of hope in her heart. Could it be that Grandpa’s pressurizing had succeeded and Jing Chen had agreed to their conditions? And Jing Chen was just happy to get the project with the Jiang family?
However, when Jiang Tian finished speaking, Jiang Xin was dumbfounded. She could not believe her ears.
“Grandpa, what are you talking about? You want to marry me to Kang Xu? But who is Kang Xu? I don’t even know him!” Jiang Xin looked at Jiang Tian in disbelief. “I want to marry Jing Chen. Grandpa, you promised me. Are you going back on your word now?”
“Xinxin, Grandpa has thought about it. This Kang Xu is more suitable for you than Jing Chen. He’s the only son in the family and has a good family background. You’ll definitely be happy if you marry him,” Jiang Tian persuaded.
“No, I’m not marrying!” Jiang Xin roared excitedly. “The person I’m marrying is Jing Chen. I only want to be his wife, not just anyone else’s!”
Jiang Xin could not understand.
Her grandfather, who had always doted on her, promised that she would be able to marry Jing Chen. However, he suddenly changed his mind and someone called Kang Xu appeared.
Looking at Jiang Xin’s expression, Jiang Tian sighed silently.
Perhaps it was because his heart ached for Jiang Xin because she was an orphan in the past that he gave in to her in almost everything. That was why she became so spoiled.
If Jing Chen was willing, of course the two families would be happy.
But this time, it was different.
He did not have much time left. He had to settle Jiang Xin down within the limited time.
“Xinxin, listen to me. Jing Chen already has a fiancée and she’s pregnant with his child. It’s not easy to be a stepmother. Most importantly, Jing Chen doesn’t love you. Your arrival broke him and his wife up. He will only hate you. How can he treat you well?”
Jiang Xin felt as if she had been struck by lightning.
Su Wan was pregnant?
Why didn’t she know?
She carefully recalled the details of how she interacted with Su Wan. In autumn and winter, she wore more clothes, so it was indeed difficult to tell that her stomach was hidden under her clothes.
No wonder every time she and Su Wan went to the cafe, Su Wan only ordered a cup of warm water!
