Rebirth in the 90s: Melting My Devoted Mr. Iceberg

Chapter 1238: Chapter 1238: Overwhelmed by Favor

"Ouyang Yi?" Jiang Xue looked at Ouyang Yi, who was smiling, and slightly furrowed her elegant brows. She almost forgot that Ouyang Yi was also in this tea house earlier.

"I’m heading back too, I can give you a ride." Ouyang Yi said with a smile. Although he no longer had feelings for Jiang Xue, his heart couldn’t help but race the moment he saw her.

"No need, I’ll just walk back." Jiang Xue smiled and declined. Everyone offering to take her home was truly overwhelming.

However, the place wasn’t far from her home, just a few steps away, and she really didn’t need a ride.

After hearing this, Ouyang Yi’s eyes flashed, he turned off the car, got out, and said to Jiang Xue, "Alright, I’ll walk you home."

Jiang Xue looked at Ouyang Yi, surprised. She never expected that he would leave his car just to walk her home.

Nevertheless, Jiang Xue still refused again, saying, "President Ouyang, really, it’s not necessary."

"Let’s go!"

However, Ouyang Yi didn’t argue with Jiang Xue and instead began walking toward Jiang Xue’s house. Jiang Xue looked at him, speechless.

Oh well, if he wants to walk her, let him. After all, it’s not that far from here to where she lives, just a few steps.

So, Jiang Xue and Ouyang Yi walked side by side toward Cuihu New Language. On the road, Ouyang Yi started a conversation with Jiang Xue. He didn’t mention anything about Nangong Chen today, but instead asked about Jiang Xue’s activities in South City.

"Jiang Xue, I heard you went to Nan University, congratulations."

"Thank you!" Jiang Xue didn’t have much to say to Ouyang Yi; besides thanking him, she didn’t know what else to say. Previously, because of Lu Ling, Jiang Xue never had a good impression of Ouyang Yi.

Now, even though Lu Ling was no longer in the picture, Jiang Xue’s impression of Ouyang Yi had already been formed, so she still had no good feelings towards him.

Ouyang Yi also noticed that Jiang Xue didn’t want to engage with him. Originally, he wanted to ask more, but in the end, he didn’t ask anything, merely walking her home in silence.

He walked Jiang Xue all the way to her building entrance before leaving.

Standing downstairs, Jiang Xue thanked Ouyang Yi, then turned around and went home. Once home, Father Jiang saw his daughter and asked with a smile, "Xue’er, why did Mr. Nangong come again? Do you have business dealings with him?"

Father Jiang had long known about his daughter’s business activities. Seeing Nangong Chen coming to see Jiang Xue two days in a row, he assumed they had business dealings.

Jiang Xue was taken aback by her father’s question, wanting to explain. But she was afraid he might overthink it, so she decided to let him continue misunderstanding for now.

The day passed quickly, and the next day, Jiang Xue went out to buy some snacks for the journey, then waited at home.

A bit after five in the afternoon, Mu Siwu and Bai Yuhua returned. Seeing the travel-worn couple, Jiang Xue immediately poured them a glass of water and took the things they were carrying, asking, "Dad, Mom, have you taken care of everything at home?"

"Don’t worry, everything is settled. Zhuoyue’s house will help us take care of the chickens and ducks at home. As for the fields, we rented them to others to farm."

Hearing this, Jiang Xue felt relieved.

After chatting for a while, Jiang Xue brought out the food she had prepared earlier. The family gathered around the table, finished their meal, and rested early, just waiting to take the train to South City the next day.
