The father and son appeared to be relaxed on the surface, and no one mentioned the unpleasant things they had caused before, but secretly they were fully prepared.
Especially Jiang Shao, it was related to Hua Cui's safety. He didn't dare to be careless at all. He wished he could hire someone to secretly protect Hua Cui every day, for fear that his father would be ruthless and threaten him by hurting her.
Jiang Jianqiang saw all of Jiang Shao's little moves. He concluded that he was now in a rebellious stage, and forcing him to leave would be counterproductive. He had to find a way to make Hua Cui leave voluntarily, so that he would give up completely.
Although the people hired by Jiang Shao have been hiding around Hua Cui, there are always times when things are a little thin. No, Wang Fu, who was entrusted with the "important task", finally found the opportunity to avoid Jiang Shao and meet Hua Cui. He respectfully Explained his intention.
Hua Cui listened without changing her expression: "Yes, I understand."
Wang Fu was overjoyed, thinking she had agreed, and then heard her lazily say, "But please go back and tell him, if anything happens, come out and tell me face to face, don't hide behind and be a coward."
Her mouth was very venomous: "Tsk, this looks very untutored."
Wang Fu: "."
"Okay, I have nothing to say to you. You can go."
Wang Fu hit a wall with her, so he went back and recounted Hua Cui's words in despair.
Jiang Jianqiang was stunned: "Did she really say that?"
"It's absolutely true, not a single word is wrong!" Including that sentence, which was particularly untutored.
Jiang Jianqiang laughed angrily, "She didn't say what she wanted?"
"No."
"A snake swallows an elephant when it's greedy." Jiang Jianqiang narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly. He didn't believe that this relationship was all about Young Master Jiang, and there was a carrot hanging in front of the donkey.
His son will never be cheaper than a donkey.
Jiang Jianqiang was invited to go and made an appointment with Hua Cui to dine in a Western restaurant with a very petty bourgeois atmosphere.
When Huacui arrived, the restaurant waiter had already served the dishes, including steak, salmon, salad and some desserts. The dishes were rich and the knives and forks were neatly placed aside.
"You're here, what would you like to drink?"
Jiang Jianqiang sat opposite her, with a relaxed posture. While he was looking at Hua Cui, Hua Cui was also looking at him.
"Ice water is fine."
Young Master Jiang is stupid and stupid, but his facial features are beyond words, his bright eyes and white teeth, most of which he probably inherited from his father, and he has a bit more youthful vigor than his father, so he is undoubtedly beautiful.
The waiter brought two glasses of ice water. Jiang Jianqiang nodded gently, like a warm-hearted and caring elder: "The steak in this restaurant tastes very good. Try it."
If the person sitting here at this time was the original person, I am afraid that she would have been embarrassed and didn't know how to start. Western food etiquette is complicated, how could she, a village girl from a small ravine, understand it?
Huacui knew that this was a threat given to her by Jiang Jianqiang.
But this kind of flower is not that kind of flower. In her previous life, as a wealthy second-generation playboy, she had eaten and played with novel things that even Jiang Jianqiang could not have imagined. It was just Western food.
"Really?" Huacui had indeed not eaten Western food for a long time. She naturally picked up a knife and fork and tasted a piece of steak. "Well, it actually tastes average to me. You like it very much?"
This is true. Judging from her taste in her previous life, the steak in this restaurant can only be called average.
"It's okay." Jiang Jianqiang's face heated up, and he felt a little embarrassed. He didn't expect that the other party was so calm, and his dining etiquette was extremely standard. He even slapped him in the face calmly. military.
He made it sound like he had such bad taste that it shocked her.
Jiang Jianqiang's meal was uninteresting. After a few mouthfuls, he wiped his mouth and got to the point: "You must be very clear about the purpose of my coming to you today, right?"
Huacui is noncommittal.
"It's our fault too. His mother and I have spoiled him since he was a child. He is very simple and very stubborn. I know you don't like him. So... what are you going to do to let him go?"
Huacui thought silently, isn't this a change of fortune? When she returned to her parents' home at the beginning of the year, her fake father used money to humiliate Zhao Qiming and forced him to leave voluntarily.
Now, it's her turn.
However, Hua Cui was more magnanimous than Zhao Qiming. She stretched out her hand and curled her knuckles slightly, "Then it depends on you. How much do you think your son is worth?"
The tone of contempt was mixed with a bit of disdain.
Jiang Jian barely suppressed the annoyance in his heart. Why did he feel that today, instead of bullying a powerless little village girl, he took the initiative to be humiliated at her door?
Although the other party just wanted money as he expected, he actually felt a little unworthy of his son!
Does he know that the person he cares about will give up on him without hesitation in the face of money? Even if his opponent had the slightest hesitation or reluctance, Jiang Jianqiang would not feel so depressed!
He handed all the money in his wallet to Hua Cui and said in a deep voice: "I hope you will keep your word and never pester my son again."
Huacui felt the thickness of the wad of money with her thumb and index finger, and gently opened the corner of her mouth.
Jiang Jianqiang took a deep breath and came again! It's that half-smiling expression again.
It’s like saying: Oh, it turns out your son is worth this money~
Regardless of whether he has more money or less money, Jiang Jianqiang feels uncomfortable and feels inferior!
"Don't worry, uncle, I will never take the initiative to pester Mr. Jiang." Hua Cui smiled and put the money into her pocket. She was poor now, so she would be happy if an enemy took the initiative to give her money, "That's right."
Jiang Jianqiang was anxious: "What is that? What do you mean?"
Huacui said innocently: "I only promise that I will not take the initiative to pester Mr. Jiang in the future, but if he takes the initiative to come to me, I can't control it. After all, the legs are on him."
"Can't you refuse him?!"
Hua Cui was even more innocent: "Uncle, you have wronged me. I have been rejecting Young Master Jiang. It's a pity that he is so shameless and insists on pestering me. My wife and I are very distressed."
Jiang Jianqiang's face turned blue and white in turns. Why did he get this evil thing? "That's right." Hua Cui changed the topic, "I have a good way to completely stop Mr. Jiang's thoughts."
"What method?"
"You adopt me as your adopted daughter. From now on, you and I will be a family. I will call you daddy, and Young Master Jiang will be my biological brother. From now on, we will take care of you together until you die."
Jiang Jianqiang almost lost his breath and pointed at her: "You! You, you"
Hua Cui blinked: "What's wrong? Don't worry, we are on the same household registration. Mr. Jiang will naturally retreat when he sees the difficulty."
"Absurd!" Jiang Jianqiang slapped the table angrily.
She did a good job of paying attention, fearing that she might want to inherit his Jiang family business in the future!
"Since you don't agree, there's nothing I can do about it." Hua Cui curled her lips in disappointment. Seeing that he had no intention of relenting, she knew that this trick would not fool anyone.
"I'm leaving. No need to send me off. Goodbye."
Jiang Jianqiang's eyes widened, and he was so angry that his heart began to feel uncomfortable again. He quickly sat on the seat and took a deep breath, watching Huacui walk away.
After having a Western meal for nothing, and with an unexpected windfall in her pocket, Hua Cui hummed a tune all the way back to school with a fruitful harvest.
Here, Mr. Jiang also quickly learned about the meeting between Hua Cui and his father. He hurriedly found Hua Cui, with tears in his eyes for fear of being abandoned: "Cui Cui, what did my father say to you?"
"You can't listen to him, you can't abandon me!" Mr. Jiang shamelessly hugged her waist and looked up at her like a puppy, "Otherwise, I'll die in front of you and make you regret it for the rest of your life!"
< br>
Hua Cui said angrily: "You might as well change your name to Jiang Q." Spiritual victory came first.
"Okay, you have the final say. Don't mention Jiang Q. From now on, I can be called Jiang P or Jiang R."
Hua Cui knew very well that she couldn't compete with him on moral integrity, so she omitted the financial transactions with Jiang Jianqiang, guessing that Jiang Jianqiang would never take the initiative to mention it, so she just said that he looked down on her background and believed that the two of them could not be together because their identities did not match.
"Nonsense!" Young Master Jiang suddenly became furious, "What age are we in now? The old matchmaking talk is no longer in use. Nowadays, we pay attention to free love!"
"Oh, you're right." Hua Cui was perfunctory.
Jiang Shao pestered Hua Cui for a while, and then he was relieved after confirming that his father was only causing trouble but it was of little use, and that Hua Cui had not abandoned him. At the same time, his vigilance rose to the highest level.
There are a new group of people secretly protecting Huacui's whereabouts.
Jiang Jianqiang has been staying in the capital for the past few days, keeping an eye on him. If he doesn't leave for a day, Master Jiang can't relax for a moment. Every day, he has to listen to his subordinates report on Huacui's safety before he can sleep.
"What did you say?! Someone is secretly following Cuicui?"
The subordinate nodded hesitantly: "It doesn't count as following, but I found that he has been secretly inquiring about information."
Jiang Shaoxin asked: "Who sent this person, old man?"
"It's not clear yet. I just found out that his surname seems to be Zhao. We only found out about this person today. He seems to have appeared out of nowhere."
Risk? Young Master Jiang was itching with hatred, but at the same time he was a little proud. He was indeed smart and witty. Fortunately, he had been on guard against his father: "Who else could it be but someone sent by the old man? I knew he was still in the capital because of his evil intentions! Here he is! I will continue to watch and send more manpower!”
The subordinate replied: "Don't worry, we have arranged for people to keep an eye on it 24 hours a day. They are all professionals and will never be discovered."
Mr. Jiang nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, you continue to follow him. Money is not an issue. I want to see what medicine he is selling in his pocket."
The subordinates nodded respectfully: "Understood!"
＊
Hua Cui was very popular in the college. No matter her teachers or classmates didn't know her name, Zhao Qiming never had a moment of idleness even though he was thousands of miles away.
The days in the team were harder and more tiring than working in the fields. He had no experience, so he could only start from the lowest level chores, and then take advantage of his breaks to learn driving and various techniques from the masters. During this period, he had to endure countless looks and stares. Sarcasm.
He endured all these.
The convoy is not always stationed in the provincial capital. It spends most of its time traveling around various places. Zhao Qiming has always been thinking about visiting the capital.
No, he finally found an opportunity. He was also lucky. This time the team had to stay in the capital for half a month.
However, when he arrived at the capital, Zhao Qiming's joy was suddenly replaced by confusion and hesitation. It was the first time he saw such a bright and beautiful capital. He originally thought that the provincial capital was prosperous enough, but he found that it didn't even have the toes of the capital. Nothing compares.
Zhao Qiming stood on the street and was stunned as he watched the brightly dressed people coming and going on the street.
He suddenly thought, had she received the letter he sent to Huacui? Or something happened in the middle of that letter.
He never waited for her reply.
