Chapter 602: 504 Who is scolding me?
"President Jiang, good morning."
As he walked into the company, the receptionist greeted him respectfully with a nod.
Under the efforts of Luo Peng and others, Tianci Capital had become increasingly formalized, with various basic departments constantly being perfected. The company now had over thirty employees.
"Jiang Chen, come here a moment."
Just as Jiang Chen entered the company, he was called over by Li Shao.
The two men entered Jiang Chen’s office.
"What’s up?"
"Did you really go to Qingyuan last night? And you brought out Miss Nan Xu as well?"
Li Shao asked in surprise.
"Hmm, you saw her?"
"When I got up this morning, I saw a woman in the room, scared me half to death. Luo Peng, that guy, why did he bring her home? He didn’t even give a heads up."
Li Shao complained.
Jiang Chen could imagine the chaotic scene that morning and chuckled playfully, "You bunch of big guys always need a girl to take care of you, to help with the logistics, isn’t that quite nice?"
"That’s... hardly convenient."
Li Shao said with a wry smile.
"How is it not convenient?"
Jiang Chen nonchalantly said, "Your house is pretty large, and besides, you and Xiao Bai finish work and still have to deal with household chores, don’t you find it tiring? Now that you have an extra pair of hands, it’s better."
"Jiang Chen, are you actually treating her as a maid?"
Jiang Chen patted Li Shao on the shoulder.
Of course, he understood what Li Shao meant.
"Brother Shao, she is no longer Nan Xu, the top lady of Qingyuan, she’s now Xia Wanqing."
Li Shao looked at Jiang Chen and fell silent.
"Let her stay with you guys for a while, then follow Luo Peng’s arrangements on what to do next."
Li Shao understood Jiang Chen’s good intentions.
Letting that girl live with them, compared to leaving her alone, undoubtedly made a world of difference to her feelings.
Compared to a canary held in a cold and lonely house, the top lady of Qingyuan certainly preferred to be a busy "maid."
"This extravagance, it’s just too much."
Li Shao shook his head.
Jiang Chen was amused to laughter.
He never expected that the reliably steady dormitory leader had now learned to joke around.
"Men and women working together make light work; having her there will definitely make your lives more colorful."
In fact, Jiang Chen had another reason for letting Xia Wanqing live with Li Shao and the others.
Li Shao and Xiao Bai didn’t have much experience with love, not knowing how to relate to women; perhaps this could also be a learning opportunity for them.
"Where’s Luo Peng?"
Jiang Chen asked.
"He took the day off."
"Took the day off?"
Li Shao nodded and explained, "He said he needed to accompany Miss Nan... Miss Xia shopping, to pick up some things."
Jiang Chen smiled.
That guy Luo Peng wouldn’t really have fallen head over heels, would he?
It wasn’t completely out of the question.
Through Qingyuan’s professional training, Xia Wanqing’s achievements in art could be said to exceed ninety percent of women in the world.
Not to mention anything else, just from her pipa performance the previous night alone, she could make most women feel inferior.
The only flaw might be her background.
"Jiang Chen, I don’t think it was a good idea for you to help him take Miss Xia out of Qingyuan."
Li Shao said slowly.
Jiang Chen looked him in the eyes, "Sit down and let’s talk."
"I don’t mean to discriminate against Miss Xia, but we all know Luo Peng’s family situation. And Luo Peng is, after all, quite sentimental. If he’s really fallen for her, I’m worried that his family might not be able to accept her."
This probably was Li Shao’s main reason for seeking him out.
No matter how excellent Xia Wanqing was, she was ultimately from Qingyuan, which was in line with the old tradition of "courtesans who entertained but did not sell their bodies."
Even if she was the epitome of elegance, she couldn’t change the peculiar gazes of others.
Jiang Chen fell silent for a while.
"Brother Shao, I understand your concern. But Luo Peng is already a mature person. I think he knows what he’s doing. Don’t think he’s careless with his affections, but he’s never left a mess, has he? He’s clear-headed about it. He’ll handle it well."
Li Shao nodded, "I hope so."
Jiang Chen smiled.
"Brother Shao, a family like Luo Peng’s might really care about matching social status, but if Luo Peng himself achieves enough, his parents won’t impose any requirements on him."
Upon hearing this, Li Shao also smiled.
"You always see things more clearly."
"Alright, I’m heading out."
Jiang Chen nodded.
Not long after Li Shao left, the cellphone began to ring.
Devil.
As Jiang Chen took out his cellphone and saw the caller ID, he was somewhat surprised.
Unconsciously, it had been a while since this woman had harassed him.
"You need to get to Capital City."
The call had barely connected when an urgent, mumbling voice came from the other end.
It’s true, isn’t it?
After some time without contact, suddenly hearing her voice felt unexpectedly familiar.
This woman hadn’t changed at all, spouting off incoherent and headless remarks.
"Why do I need to go to Capital City?"
"My dad woke up!"
Shi Qianxi’s tone was full of excitement.
Jiang Chen was startled.
Shi Zhenhua woke up?!
"Did you hear that? Hurry over!"
Miss Shi commanded imperiously.
Jiang Chen composed himself.
Shi Zhenhua waking up was indeed good news, and he was happy for him. But he had no close relation with Shi Zhenhua, so why should he go visit because he had awakened?
"Why don’t you go yourself?"
Thus Jiang Chen asked a perfectly reasonable question.
"I’m currently overseas, I can’t get away!"
No wonder she had been quiet for so long; she must really have been busy.
