Chapter 74: The Unexpected Redemption (please read)
"Shen Zhuo, drive!" Jiang Huai said quickly to Shen Zhuo.
"Um, Mr. Jiang, why are you in such a hurry?" Shen Zhuo asked Jiang Huai doubtfully.
"Aren't you here to pick me up?"
"No! I'm here to pick up the lady...Does Mr. Jiang want to cook for the lady?"
"Eh? Even you can tell that I don't want to cook for your lady anymore?" Jiang Huai didn't think he was acting very obviously, but Shen Zhuo could see it.
"Mr. Jiang, look at the back seat..."
Jiang Huai looked towards the back seat and found Liu Ruyan sitting in the back seat looking at him gloomily.
"Mr. Liu, you got off work so early today!" Jiang Huai smiled awkwardly, trying to fool him.
Liu Ruyan snorted coldly, "Let's drive first! Get rid of that trouble outside."
"Okay, miss."
Jiang Huai breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he didn't rush himself out of the car.
"Mr. Jiang, I am taking my lady to a dinner party. Do you want to go with me?"
"Go! Of course we will go together." Jiang Huai was afraid that Liu Ruyan would ask Shen Zhuo to take him to a certain intersection and drop him off.
Although Jiang Huai didn't want to face Liu Ruyan, he didn't want to face Lin Jia even more. He could only stay with Liu Ruyan and use her as his shield.
Jiangcheng International Hotel.
The last time bad memories of this familiar parking lot suddenly came to mind, Jiang Huai couldn't help but curse Tan Yi a few times in his heart for being such a bad boy and actually looking for someone to hit him.
"Let's go! Let's go have a meal. We won't drink today." Liu Ruyan said calmly to Jiang Huai after getting off the car
Jiang Huai refused directly, "Mr. Liu, I won't go in if I'm dressed like this. It will also embarrass you if I go in."
"Shen Zhuo and I will wait for you outside."
Liu Ruyan's face turned cold, but fortunately Shen Zhuo reminded: "Miss, the time is almost up. If you don't go in, you will be late."
"Yeah."
After Liu Ruyan left, Jiang Huai gave Shen Zhuo a thumbs up, "It's funny, you know how to help me out."
"Mr. Jiang, actually the lady knows some of your little thoughts, but she doesn't argue with you."
"What's there to argue about? Everyone is just playing along. By the way, haven't you found any dirt on Tan Yi yet? I want to get the money quickly and return it to Liu Ruyan, and then run away and leave Jiangcheng."
"Oh? Mr. Jiang plans to leave Jiangcheng in the future?" Shen Zhuo looked at Jiang Huai in surprise.
Jiang Huai nodded, "Of course, haven't you seen that my ex-girlfriend is chasing after me now?"
"I must be looking for a place to avoid her! But we have a contract with Liu Ruyan here, and she needs me to deal with her father."
"Mr. Jiang is really involved in worldly affairs!"
"There is no other way, just take it one step at a time! I will go to Xinjiapo in a few days, so I can avoid the limelight." Jiang Huai said as if he was embarrassed.
"What did Mr. Jiang do in Singapore?"
"I accepted a music video shoot. Although it may not be very profitable, as long as it can help me avoid my ex-girlfriend, and it can be upright and not cook dinner for Liu Ruyan, why not do it?"
JAC's abacus was ringing loudly, "Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. Have you had dinner?"
"How about we order takeout?"
"Okay."
The two turned on their mobile phones, ordered two fast food from nearby, and then sat on the stone pier to eat. "Mr. Jiang, actually I think the lady treats you very well." Shen Zhuo suddenly said.
"Hey, it's just that I still have value! She is a businessman, and interests are more important than anything else. If I were an ordinary person, a female CEO like her would probably not even look at me twice on the roadside."
Jiang Huai tapped his chopsticks on the fast food box, "She and I are not equal in the first place. The identity gap is too big. For her, she should be an employee who clocks in and checks in every day?"
"Mr. Jiang, you may not understand what I mean. What I mean is that the lady may like you!"
"Ahem!"
Shen Zhuo's words were so shocking that Jiang Huai choked.
"Mr. Jiang, are you okay?" Shen Zhuo patted Jiang Huai's back and felt relieved.
"Shen Zhuo, don't make such jokes. Liu Ruyan has a boyfriend, how could she like me?" Jiang Huai retorted.
"To put it bluntly, I'm just a bitch. I want money but no money, and nothing. If it were any girl, I wouldn't be able to give her what she wants. Who can like me?"
Today's society is very realistic, and it's not like Jiang Huai has never seen some women dump their boyfriends and get into the car of the rich second generation.
There are also men who, after getting rich, kick out the people they have been sleeping with for many years and marry those young and beautiful girls.
Jiang Huai doesn't think he has such a strong personality to attract Liu Ruyan, and Liu Ruyan has always been wary of him. He has to install a surveillance camera in the room where he lives in her house. Doesn't it mean he can't trust himself?
Maybe Jiang Huai asked Liu Ruyan to borrow money, and Liu Ruyan would borrow one hundred and eighty thousand. Jiang Huai would definitely be moved, but in Liu Ruyan's view, this one hundred and eighty thousand is not money at all, and it is not as expensive as one of her lipsticks. .
If the class gap between two people is too big, their values are not equivalent.
What you are moved by is actually just a small favor that the rich throw away, and it is not worth mentioning to the rich.
So Jiang Huai thinks, how can this be like it? A strong woman like Liu Ruyan must like the kind of man who can make her have a desire to conquer.
"Why would Mr. Jiang belittle himself like this?" Shen Zhuo couldn't help but comfort him when he saw Jiang Huai was so excited.
"I'm not belittling myself! If the story of me and Lin Jia were posted on the Internet, the comment section would definitely say that I am a dog licker. Who would say that I am affectionate?"
"Well..." Shen Zhuo didn't know what to say.
"Okay, let's not talk about this."
Shen Zhuo is not Jiang Huai, so he cannot empathize with Jiang Huai, and it is difficult to understand what Jiang Huai is thinking.
Ever since he was young, Jiang Huai has been hoping that there will be a beam of light that can redeem him, but he has never been able to wait.
He simply stopped waiting and chose to save himself, redeem himself, and reconcile with himself.
Only by learning to love yourself can you live a better life.
The two of them waited until after nine o'clock. Because it was a bit cold later, they got in the car and waited. Liu Ruyan finally finished the dinner.
There was a slight smell of alcohol on her body, she must have been drinking a lot. When the cold night wind blew, she had a softness that fell with the wind.
"Mr. Jiang, help Miss get into the car! I'll drive."
"Okay, Mr. Liu, I'll help you get into the car!" Jiang Huai said to Liu Ruyan.
Liu Ruyan squinted her eyes and exhaled a slight smell of alcohol from her red lips, "My head hurts a little..."
"It's normal. The wind is a bit cold at night. Just get in the car and it will be fine."
Jiang Huai helped Liu Ruyan get into the car, closed the door, turned on the air conditioner in the back seat, and adjusted the heater.
Liu Ruyan leaned on Jiang Huai's shoulder. Before Jiang Huai could get out of the car and go to the front row, Shen Zhuo started the car.
