You Look Like You’re Made of Money - Chapter 44 (2)

Chapter 44 (2)

Back in the room, Daddy Jiang was lying in bed watching stuff on his phone. Seeing his wife come in, he casually asked, “What’s the matter with Jingjing?”

“Nothing, just some small things.” Mama Jiang sat at the dressing table and started doing her skincare routine.

Thinking of what she said to her daughter, Mama Jiang turned her head and said to her husband, “It’s not easy to raise a child. When they want to go out to make friends and fall in love, you need to teach them well and to not harm others.”

“How do you say that?”

“For instance, I’m the one who taught my son to be a good man instead of another woman. Understand?”

Daddy Jiang remembered a joke he had just read. “Do you mean teaching your pig not to plow other people’s vegetable garden before you let it out?”

“Yeah, that’s it!”

The scum man she met before Daddy Jiang was like that. She always thought the parents should be the ones to correct their child’s three views, not her.

She didn’t ask for her children to be good people as long as they weren’t wrong.

Jiang Jingchuan only took his assistant for the business trip. The assistant felt pressured, why? Jiang Jingchuan used to take the female secretary with him to sort out information. Now, he has to do that himself. He didn’t even think before concluding it was because of Mrs. Jiang.

On the day before departing, Jiang Jingchuan suddenly told him he was going to the mall to buy things.

The assistant felt confused. What was he going to buy?

Jiang Jingchuan: “Take a look at your WeChat. I sent a few pictures of what to buy.”

The pictures he sent were what Jiang Jingjing asked him to buy.

The assistant continued to feel confused. “Mr. Jiang, we’re going separate ways?”

He did not reject the matter of shopping in the mall, because his girlfriend sent him to buy stuff before, but he thought he would stay with Jiang Jingchuan.

Jiang Jingchuan shook his head and coughed, “Don’t forget the country that we’re in.”

Oh.

The assistant knew that two men shopping together here would lead to unwanted associations.

“This is what my sister wants. I’ll reimburse you when you get back.” Jiang Jingchuan added.

The assistant asked, “What are you going to do?”

Jiang Jingchuan said very seriously, “Buy things for my wife.”

Why don’t you buy your sister’s stuff while you’re at it?!

Perhaps he saw the interrogating attitude in the assistant’s eyes and he explained: “It’s a waste of time to buy things for her.”

The assistant really wanted to give Jiang Jingjing a candle for being so disliked.

Through this, the two soldiers split up. Su Yan asked Jiang Jingchuan to bring a lot of things, there were perfumes, cosmetics, and skincare products. It seems that when a woman goes abroad, she would buy this stuff.

Jiang Jingchuan simply video called Su Yan.

Sending texts and voice messages was too slow.

Su Yan just finished her bath and was lying on her bed learning English. She knew that if she showed a level of English that was completely unintelligible, she would be suspected. Even if she didn’t have to study hard when she was a student, there was no way she couldn’t have learned the English alphabet and simple words.

So she decided to study on her own online for a while and then hire a tutor when her level becomes passable.

She looked for English tutorials on the Internet during Jiang Jingchuan’s absence. Naturally, it was not as good as a face-to-face teacher, but she didn’t have too much trouble learning and was memorizing the English alphabet when she received a video call from Jiang Jingchuan. She hurriedly hid her books and sat on the bed to start videoing with him.

“I’ve sent my assistant away.” Jiang Jingchuan’s expression was somewhat unnatural. He only called and texted her through WeChat so he was a little unused to video chatting.

Fortunately, most of the people passing by were foreigners. Most of them didn’t understand Chinese so his uncomfortableness slightly reduced.
