Chapter 1263: Chapter 842: Late Night Talk
"Ah Wei, are you working again?"
"Y-yeah." Zhang Wei stammered for a moment, still figuring out a way to earn some money to go back home and find a potential match.
Seeing the situation now, he felt very defeated.
Forget it, better focus on making money first. In a few years, I can help my boss find a few more wives.
"Just looking around." Jiang Nian had nothing much to do and took the two women to the other side, avoiding any work interruptions.
Wang Yuhe found everything fascinating but was too shy to speak up with outsiders around, so she just held it in.
"Yunyun, look at that..."
"Oh, I see it." Chen Yunyun appeared calm; she wasn’t interested in the clothes Jiang Nian was selling.
They didn’t match her usual style, so she naturally didn’t react much. After a quick look around, she was about to leave.
Just as she was about to take a step, she instinctively felt something was off.
"Hey."
"Hmm?" He looked back at Chen Yunyun and subconsciously asked, "What’s wrong?"
"Did someone from our class... also come here?"
Hearing this, Jiang Nian was taken aback.
It was a very polite way of putting it; someone from class three did come. Who could it be if not Zhang Ningzhi and her friends?
Or Li Qingrong and her friends, or else... forget it, no need to list them all.
Wang Yuhe didn’t seem to react much; perhaps it seemed normal to her. She just glanced at Jiang Nian.
"Who was it?"
"Oh, it was Zhang Ningzhi and them." Jiang Nian had no reason to hide it, "They were traveling and stopped by for a visit."
That’s all there was to it.
Those days, he didn’t even accompany them; the two women were quite independent, wandering around on their own, which was quite a relief.
"Uh-huh." Chen Yunyun nodded.
"What’s the matter?"
"Nothing." Chen Yunyun shook her head, and this scene fell right into Jiang Nian’s peripheral vision, which made him think to himself.
At such times, when someone says nothing is wrong, something usually is. If she could explain one, two, three things, then truly nothing would be wrong.
However, he wasn’t a genius. He couldn’t come up with a solution right away, so he decided to step out first.
Just as they were going out, Jiang Nian asked seemingly casually.
"Have you bought the plane tickets?"
"High-speed train, searching now." Chen Yunyun was scrolling through her phone, "Planning to buy tickets for the early hours, so I’ll arrive home at dawn."
Hearing this, Jiang Nian exclaimed softly.
"Alright."
Wang Yuhe sensed something was off in the atmosphere, so she asked in a low voice, "Are we going back to the hotel to get our bags now?"
Chen Yunyun nodded, "Yes."
"Oh, okay."
Throughout the journey, Jiang Nian was deep in thought, not saying much, while Wang Yuhe occasionally said silly things.
When they arrived at the hotel, just before they got on the elevator.
Chen Yunyun turned around, about to say something to Jiang Nian standing outside the elevator when he suddenly squeezed in.
Without saying a word, he took her hand.
"Well, just going straight back doesn’t seem worth it. Let’s spend a couple of days in the nearby cities, I’ll buy you the tickets."
Chen Yunyun: "??? "
The elevator was rising, and Wang Yuhe, having no clue, thought the two had already planned this, "Really?"
"No..." Chen Yunyun wanted to say something, but Jiang Nian’s gaze landed on her lips.
Immediately, she felt a tingle inside, too afraid to continue speaking.
She had no doubt that if she uttered another word, Jiang Nian would pounce on her; he was always so shameless.
Chen Yunyun: "...Yes."
Since they were already here, wandering around for a few days wouldn’t be bad. In fact, she wasn’t really jealous of Zhizhi.
She just subconsciously realized the gap between them was quite large.
Jiang Nian didn’t know since he couldn’t read minds. But not knowing the reason didn’t hinder his actions.
When you’re feeling down, take a break to divert your attention.
"Alright, I’ve purchased the tickets for you." Jiang Nian carried the two women’s bags, "Let’s go, check out of the hotel."
"Where to?" Wang Yuhe was puzzled.
Jiang Nian turned around and glanced at the two women, "Of course, to a place where, um... you can rest for free."
Chen Yunyun: "Mall?"
...
"We’re here!"
With a ding, the elevator doors opened on the eighteenth floor. Jiang Nian tossed the bags to Wang Yuhe and went in first to change shoes and open the door.
In no time, he came out holding two pairs of new slippers.
Predicting this part.
"Here, each take a pair." Jiang Nian crouched down like this, casually helping Chen Yunyun change her shoes.
Chen Yunyun froze, only coming back to her senses when her foot was grabbed.
"No... I’ll do it myself."
"No need." Jiang Nian’s hands were always quick and accurate; before she finished speaking, he had already helped her change her slippers.
Then, he naturally stood up.
"Let’s go."
Chen Yunyun’s face tinged with red, and she was too embarrassed to say anything.
"Thank... thank you."
Wang Yuhe quickly changed her shoes, without much reaction. She didn’t want her foot to be grabbed by Jiang Nian, fearing he would mess with her.
"Is this the rest you were talking about?"
"Why?" Jiang Nian glanced at her, raising an eyebrow, "With air conditioning, you’re still not satisfied?"
"Hmph! I didn’t say that!!"
After settling the two women, Jiang Nian went straight out again. He had some business to handle, needing some time to take care of it.
After he left, the two women looked at each other. Wang Yuhe lay on the sofa, playing on her phone with the air conditioning on.
Chen Yunyun’s mind was a bit of a mess; seeing the room spotless, she picked up a cloth, put it down again, and sighed.
Until she happened to take a glance and saw a vase under the cabinet.
"Hmm?"
She picked it up and found the rim of the vase was dusty. It wasn’t very obvious, only noticeable when holding it up.
Driven by an unknown force, she wiped the rim.
On the other side, Jiang Nian finished his business. Just as he walked out of the warehouse, he suddenly received a message from Li Hua.
"What are you up to?"
Jiang Nian: "I’m busy making money, you rascal."
Li Hua: "(wry smile) How much have you earned?"
Jiang Nian: "PC got caught, right? I’m raising funds for the fine?"
"Chi Shi!!" Li Hua sent a few photos, all group pictures with girls, "Can you rate these?"
Jiang Nian: "...."
He laughed, his hands shook while typing.
"Impressive."
"You’re also in Yuhang, why not take the time to meet your father, huh?" Li Hua sent a serious emoji.
