Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Li Mei laughed dryly. “You two met a few times when you were young. Now you’ve met again after so many years. I’m just curious.”
Jiang An laughed. “It’s been more than 20 years. How can I still remember what happened when we were young?”
Li Mei was slightly relieved, but in the next second, it got brought up again.
“But Zou Bai is very good-looking. He’s quite unforgettable. 1 guess I was still young at that time and my aesthetic senses weren’t very good. If he was a little older, I would definitely remember him,” Jiang An said as she narrowed her eyes and looked at the distant lawn. She even nodded after saying that.
As expected! Homme Fatale! Li Mei knew that Zou Bai’s appearance had bewitched countless ignorant girls.
Li Mei said to Jiang An seriously, “The most important thing when choosing a man is not his looks, but whether he treats you well.”
When Jiang An heard Li Mei’s words, a puzzled expression appeared on her face. Then, she suddenly understood and looked at her mother. “Mom, aren’t you thinking too much? I’m focused on my career now and don’t plan to consider my personal problems. Besides, Zou Bai won’t even like me with his qualifications.”
Li Mei thought of how Madam Zou had already brought her daughter-in-law to express her stand and was a little disapproving of Jiang An’s words. “What’s wrong with you? If your qualifications were made known, many young talents will step into our house!”
“Zou Bai has a good family background. Although our family is a little inferior to his family, we’ve always married high and low. Your own conditions aren’t bad either. If he really wants to marry you, I might not even agree.”
Li Mei spoke as if she was certain that this would happen. Jiang An chuckled. “Mom, you’re too protective of me. In their eyes, 1 might just be a little girl next door who used to play with him.”
Li Mei realized that Jiang An was completely ignorant. She was secretly happy. “Actually, you don’t have to be in a hurry to choose now. A woman’s career is also very important! Let’s start a career first before starting a family.”
Jiang An nodded seriously. “Yes, I’ll establish my career first!”
The mother and daughter chatted for a while more. After confirming that Jiang An did not want to consider marriage for the time being, Li Mei heaved a sigh of relief. “Let me tell you something. Jiang Zhen is preparing to transfer to Jingdu City next month.”
When Jiang An heard this news, she asked curiously, “If Brother Jiang Zhen comes to Jingdu City, what about the southwest region?”
Li Mei was stunned for a moment before replying, “Your father should have made arrangements. When he comes to Jingdu City, we’ll call him over for a meal.”
Jiang An still took the time to understand the company’s business. She wasn’t taking things over, so she did not pursue the matter.
Life in Jingdu City was quiet and peaceful, but Si Cheng was in a terrible fix.
Jiang An’s att.i.tude greatly thwarted Si Cheng’s confidence in remarrying. Moreover, Si Qin and Si Lin were pressing on step by step. He was now quite alone and helpless. In comparison, whether he could continue to sit firmly as the CEO of the Si Corporation was still in question. The Bai family also began to have second thoughts.
Bai Family
The Bai couple and Bai Ting were discussing whether to continue the marriage alliance in the study. When the Bai couple saw the Si family’s situation, they naturally wanted to retreat, but Bai Ting objected.
Bai Ting looked at her parents and persuaded, “Dad, Mom, Si Cheng still has a chance now. It’s always been easier to add icing on the cake. It’s difficult to provide charcoal in a blizzard. If we can help him at this time, wouldn’t such a favor be more reliable than a simple marriage?”
The Bai couple looked at each other and turned to Bai Ting. “Don’t tell me you want me to ask your Uncle Xu for help?”
Bai Ting nodded and said affirmatively, “Most of our family’s a.s.sets are overseas. Although it’s not smooth sailing for us to transfer back to the country to resist the risks, it looks alright at the moment. Most importantly, our focus is still overseas. No matter what, protecting our shares overseas is the most important.”
“Uncle Xu owes our family a favor. If we use it on our domestic businesses, with his current status, it’s a little overkill for us to use it like this. It’s not worth it. However, if I join and help Si Cheng tide through this difficult situation, and then use marriage as a bargaining chip, everything will still be the same, it won’t be the same.”
In order to convince her father, Bai Ting did not mention any personal feelings and only a.n.a.lyzed and made suggestions from the perspective of maximizing benefits..
