Chapter 49 Mary with a Clear Goal
Chapter 49 Mary with a Clear Goal
"I......"
Chen Jiang had planned everything meticulously, but he never expected her to ask such a question, and for a moment he was speechless.
Song Hua ignored all of that, feeling relieved to finally see the person in charge, she stepped forward to Chen Jiang and said:
"I'm so sorry, Chen Jiang. I just got my driver's license not long ago, and I'm still a bit clumsy when parking. I bumped into your car in my haste."
"Actually, I should stay here with you until things are settled before leaving, but I do have something to do. Let's exchange contact information, so you can give me the bill after you've finished repairing the car."
This is the proper way to communicate, especially since Chen Jiang didn't take it seriously at all.
It's just a scratch on the paint, not a complete crash. Besides, even if it were crashed, Chen Jiang could afford to crash it now. He has that kind of confidence, so it's hard for him to get angry over such things.
Seeing that Song Hua's attitude was indeed very sincere, Chen Jiang smiled and waved his hand:
"I already said it's nothing, Mr. Song. If you're in a hurry, you can just leave."
"That won't work."
Song Hua's attitude was firm. She took out her phone and held it in front of Chen Jiang: "We must add each other as friends. I'm not the kind of person who takes advantage of others."
"Okay... then."
Chen Jiang hadn't expected the older woman to be so resolute, so he had no choice but to agree.
Taking out her phone, Song Hua added Chen Jiang as a WeChat friend. Seeing that Chen Jiang had accepted her friend request, she finally nodded, her attitude softening, and smiled as she said to Chen Jiang:
"If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me."
"no problem."
Chen Jiang put his phone in his pocket and nodded repeatedly upon hearing this.
Seeing this, Song Hua felt relieved, turned to look at Da Bao who was still somewhat shocked, and said in a low voice, "Let's go."
"Oh, oh, oh!"
Da Bao finally snapped out of his shock, hurriedly nodded, then ran to the passenger side of Song Hua's BMW, glanced at Chen Jiang waving at her, and got into the car.
Song Hua started the car. This time, having learned her lesson, she carefully pressed the accelerator and slowly moved the car, finally managing to drive it safely out of the parking space.
He then rolled down the car window, nodded to Chen Jiang, and quickly left the parking lot.
"This Song Dynasty painting... is actually quite interesting."
Chen Jiang watched the BMW drive away, shook his head, then turned around and checked the bumper of his Aston Martin. After confirming that there was nothing seriously wrong, he got into his car and drove home.
......
Luxury homes are certainly nice, but Chen Jiang hasn't been a nouveau riche for very long, so he doesn't feel that his little nest is particularly bad.
Back home, Chen Jiang lay on the sofa and took out his phone to send Nina a message:
[Chen Jiang: What time will you be back tonight?]
A few seconds later, Nina replied to the message:
[Nina: Honey, it might be seven or eight o'clock, so I won't be able to prepare dinner for you. Can you prepare it yourself?]
[Chen Jiang: Then I'll order some food to save myself the trouble of cooking... Is there anything you'd like to eat?]
Nina: I'm fine with anything... but I'm planning to invite Mary over for dinner, is that alright, darling?
Chen Jiang was slightly taken aback, recalling Margarita's appearance. Although somewhat surprised, he didn't hesitate much.
Chen Jiang: Of course, you can invite her... Also, I'm a bit tired today, so I won't pick you up. You and Margarita can take a taxi back yourselves.
Nina: I love you.
After closing the chat interface, Chen Jiang thought for a moment, then picked up his phone and ordered a few dishes.
Then, remembering Nina and Margarita's personalities, he bought two more bottles of wine.
After paying the bill, Chen Jiang continued to lie on the sofa and started scrolling through his phone. After a while, he felt sleepy, so he simply closed his eyes and prepared to take a nap.
He didn't know how much time had passed when the sound of the door opening woke him up from his drowsy state. He sat up from the sofa and saw Nina, who had just gotten off work, followed by Margarita, who had changed her hair color and dyed it pink.
"Nina, Mary, you're back."
"yes dear."
Nina put the bags she was carrying on the ground, took off her boots, and went straight to the kitchen: "Honey, all the food you ordered was on the shelf outside the door, I brought it all in."
"You must be hungry too. Wait a moment, I'll get it ready right away."
"It's okay, no rush."
Chen Jiang yawned, turned to look at Margarita standing in the doorway, and patted the sofa:
"Sit down yourself, do I have to treat you?"
"Of course, I won't stand on ceremony."
Margarita spoke, but her movements were noticeably cautious. She tiptoed to the sofa on the side and sat down, but her eyes unconsciously drifted towards Chen Jiang.
Chen Jiang noticed her subtle movements and raised an eyebrow:
"What's wrong with you? It's not like we've never met before. Why are you acting like I'm scary?"
Margarita stiffened, then glanced at Nina busy in the kitchen, and couldn't help but lean closer, asking in a low voice:
"Chen... have you invested in our company?"
"Um?"
Chen Jiang looked at her with some surprise, frowning: "How did you know? Who told you?"
This statement clearly implies an admission.
Margarita was a little shocked, but also a little excited:
"No...nobody told me, I overheard it by accident."
Chen Jiang looked her up and down, somewhat puzzled:
"So? You hesitated for so long just to ask this question?"
"I...it's nothing."
Margarita swallowed her words... To be honest, she didn't really know what she was getting excited about.
She's been a bit dazed ever since she unexpectedly discovered this situation today.
She had never understood why Nina would suddenly bet on Chen Jiang. Even after discovering that Chen Jiang seemed to be really rich, she felt that Nina should wait instead of throwing herself into his arms without hesitation.
But when Chen Jiang gave Nina a bunch of gifts last time, she regretted not discovering earlier that Chen Jiang was a hidden tycoon.
Now that she has unexpectedly learned this secret news, she is even more hesitant... Just like Nina, her purpose in coming to Dongda University is also very clear, which is to make money!
Unlike Nina, who needed money due to family troubles, Margarita considered herself to be very pure—simply vain and greedy for wealth.
So even though she was born into a middle-class family, she neither chose to study hard nor to fall into depravity like some people. Instead, she learned about modeling, spent money on fitness and self-care, and even kept her body pure, all in order to find a man who could truly provide her with a luxurious life.
As for who the other person was, she didn't care at all... But no matter how indifferent she was, compared to an old man who was about to die, it was naturally better to be a strong man like Chen Jiang, not to mention that Chen Jiang's appearance was not bad in her eyes.
However, due to a wrong initial choice, Chen Jiang had already been beaten to it by Nina.
Moreover, Nina treats her very well and is a true friend to her... Even though she is a little jealous of Nina's good fortune, she is still hesitant about what to do next.
