Chapter 1213: 835 Second Update (Happy National Day!)

Whether Shi Qianxi has good luck or not is still debatable, but Jiang Chen has not been having a smooth time lately.

With great difficulty, he had dealt with the obstacles from Shi Qianxi’s side, only to run into new problems.

Spring and Autumn Plaza, Villa No. 18.

Jiang Chen got out of the car.

"Ding-dong, ding-dong..."

He walked through the courtyard and stood at the door, pressing the doorbell.

After a short wait, the door opened.

Pei Yunxi merely glanced at him before silently turning away.

Jiang Chen followed her in and casually closed the door behind him.

"Didn’t you tell me to hand the contract over to Cui Heng?"

Having taken care of Shi Qianxi’s matter, he thought everything would naturally fall into place, and he could report back to Luo Peng, but who would have guessed that Cui Heng would come to see him again with a distressed face.

In his view, the other party was not someone to go back on his word, and when it came to the reason for the refusal, Cui Heng was also clueless, only saying that Pei Yunxi asked him to return the contract.

"Is it dissatisfaction with the endorsement fee?"

Jiang Chen ventured a guess.

He wasn’t a stingy person, and considering the sharp rise in the other party’s popularity recently, the endorsement fee offered was sure to set a new record in the domestic entertainment industry.

One hundred and fifty million.

A generous offer.

Jiang Chen thought the price was reasonable, and it seemed that the other party wasn’t someone overly concerned with fame and fortune, but for a deal that was already agreed upon to be suddenly reneged upon, aside from the endorsement fee, he couldn’t think of any other reason.

"Have a seat first."

After speaking, Pei Yunxi turned and went upstairs, leaving Jiang Chen alone in the living room. Her tone was not particularly warm, but neither was it cold, rather it was quite calm.

Today was a workday.

Luo Li’er was at school.

Comrade Jiang Chen, for no apparent reason, could only sit alone on the sofa. Making himself at home, he picked up the remote control and turned on the TV.

Although young, perhaps influenced by his environment, he tuned into a news channel after turning on the TV.

Many big bosses have this habit, just like Shi Zhenhua.

Pei Yunxi didn’t keep him waiting long, descending the stairs again after about five or six minutes.

She wore a moon-white, casual home dress. The pure color complemented her freshness and transcendence – pristine and untainted.

If it had been before, with Boss Jiang’s gentlemanly nature, he certainly wouldn’t have minded openly admiring her beauty, but since returning from Gangcheng, he had become somewhat reserved, his gaze hardly lingering on her body, focusing only on her face with its classical charm.

Pei Yunxi came over in slippers.

Just as Jiang Chen was about to speak, before he could even open his mouth, a ’throwing weapon’ suddenly flew towards him.

Jiang Chen once again displayed his exceptional reflexes, catching it accurately with his hand, then instinctively looked down.

It wasn’t some sharp blade.

But a wrinkled piece of paper.

Or more accurately,

An envelope.

Why does it look familiar?

Jiang Chen opened the envelope and found it empty.

He flipped it back and forth.

It felt right.

On the corner of the envelope, there was the font of Gangcheng’s Peninsula Hotel.

"I had put something in it."

He raised his head and immediately explained.

"Are you a pervert!"

The other party clearly knew he had put something inside.

Pei Yunxi lost her signature coolness, fury flashing in her eyes, yet her cheeks, fair as suet, uncontrollably blushed.

Jiang Chen was taken aback.

It’s good there was no misunderstanding.

He breathed a sigh of relief, then puzzledly said, "How am I a pervert?"

Pei Yunxi glared at him "ferociously".

"Indecent!"

Her vocabulary was really too limited.

A top beauty indeed remained a top beauty.

Even when angry, she was still a pleasant sight to behold.

Jiang Chen wore an innocent face.

He’s definitely not pretending.

"What’s wrong with me?"

He asked with a bitter smile.

Then.

He unexpectedly saw a "gnashing teeth" expression on the other’s face, which was quite unimaginable.

The quick-witted Boss Jiang seemed to catch on, pinching the empty envelope in his hand, and quickly explained seriously: "Don’t misunderstand, that’s my bedsheet, not someone else’s..."

Pei Yunxi completely lost it, actually bending down to pick up the slipper at her feet and throwing it hard at him.

Jiang Chen agilely dodged.

Pei Yunxi bent down again to grab the other slipper.

"Wait a minute!"

Jiang Chen shouted loudly.

Pei Yunxi stopped, one foot bare on the ground, the other wearing a slipper, this comical scene would absolutely blow up the internet if it were photographed and exposed.

"Explain yourself clearly."

Jiang Chen was truly puzzled.

Even when he lost the most precious thing, he didn’t seem to get this agitated before.

"Why did you... keep that bedsheet."

Pei Yunxi tried to restrain herself, her perfectly-sized chest heaving up and down.

Jiang Chen blinked, instinctively explaining: "I’ve seen in TV dramas, in those historical series, women... always..."

His explanation came out awkwardly and intermittently.

Hearing this, the furious Pei Yunxi also froze, and then seemed even more embarrassed than Jiang Chen.

Indeed.

The newcomer didn’t lie.

In historical dramas, virtuous maidens or ordinary women all used a similar method to prove their chastity to their lovers or husbands, and afterwards they would preserve it carefully.

TV is misleading!

All the anger drained away in an instant, and looking at the innocent and earnest face in front of her, Pei Yunxi suddenly wanted to laugh but couldn’t, her face that had made countless men agonize was now expressing an extremely odd emotion.

"...Are you shooting a TV series?"

After a while, she blurted out a sentence.

Jiang Chen, who was thoroughly well-meant, was at a loss for words, and he also began to realize that he seemed to have done the right thing for the wrong reason.

Indeed.

What era is it now.

No wonder she flew off the handle.

Probably any girl would think he was crazy.

"I’m sorry, I..."

Jiang Chen was at a loss for words, filled with embarrassment.

Pei Yunxi breathed quickly, her lips tightly pressed, but she couldn’t get angry anymore either.

She also realized that this guy wasn’t doing it on purpose, or to put it differently, the starting point wasn’t the same as she had thought.

"Where’s that bedsheet? I’ll take it back."

Jiang Chen immediately tried to remedy the situation.

"Thrown away."

Luckily, Pei Yunxi was still understanding, took a deep breath, demonstrating strong emotional management abilities, and said calmly: "Give me the slipper."

Jiang Chen, like a simpleton, uttered an "Oh", then picked up the slipper from behind him and threw it over.

He was just acting on instinct, trying to be helpful, definitely without any thought of retaliation, but how could she have his reflexes?

"Bang!"

The slipper hit Pei Yunxi’s forehead squarely.

Jiang Chen’s heart sank sharply.

"Thud,"

the slipper fell to the ground.

Pei Yunxi looked at him woodenly, her hair disheveled by the cotton slipper that couldn’t possibly cause injury due to the soft material and force, creating a ruffled and disordered appearance.

Jiang Chen held his breath.

The two looked at each other.

"According to senior management of Kangaroo Group who accepted the interview, the take-out department of Kangaroo will officially start the merger process with Bao Le Me, this major business move fully confirms that Kangaroo and Hippo Group, competitors for many years, have officially buried the hatchet and will join forces to meet future challenges together..."

In the silent atmosphere.

Only the TV mechanically reported the news.
