Chapter 34: Thoughts

“If I didn’t know he wasn’t interested, I’d think he had his eyes on you,” Jiang Chen joked.

“Cousin, don’t talk nonsense, Li Jingcheng is right here,” Xiao Miaomiao was genuinely embarrassed, even though she knew it was impossible.

Jiang Chen glanced at Li Jingcheng on the bed, “I said he wouldn’t understand anyway, and besides, it’s all just speculation, he can’t hit me, can he?”

“Alright, go downstairs, seeing him like this, he’s still the same as before, it’s off-putting,” Jiang Chen said with disdain.

“Where, he’s clearly quite handsome,” Xiao Miaomiao stated the truth.

Jiang Chen asked about Xiao Miaomiao’s future plans, and she was still the same as before, just wanting to have a child, raise a child, paint, and live a leisurely life.

Jiang Chen felt a little envious in the end, she was truly living a carefree life.

“Let’s go, we should go downstairs, things should be settled by now,” Jiang Chen suggested.

“Okay,” Xiao Miaomiao accompanied him downstairs.

When Xiao Miaomiao and Jiang Chen reached the living room, the Li family and the Xiao family also came out of the study. Grandpa’s face looked a bit off.

Xiao Miaomiao’s heart tightened, could they have had a disagreement?

Jiang Chen was also a little worried, looking at Xiao Miaomiao, a hint of worry flashed in his eyes.

“Miaomiao, are you sure you don’t regret marrying Li Jingcheng?” Jiang Feng asked his granddaughter again.

Xiao Miaomiao didn’t understand, but she still nodded obediently, “No regrets.”

“Good, then sign the documents your uncle is holding,” Jiang Feng asked Jiang Hai to hand the documents to her and explained, “This is our Jiang family’s dowry for you, and I also have a 3% stake in Jiang Corporation.”

“No need, Grandpa,” Xiao Miaomiao didn’t expect the Jiang family to prepare all this for her.

“Alright, what elders give, you cannot refuse. This is also our Jiang family’s way of giving you confidence. What was given before is in the past, now that you’ve chosen Li Jingcheng, you can’t regret it. I’ve seen the Li family’s sincerity, and I’m very satisfied.”

“But at the same time, if you ever decide to divorce, I will support you. However, before the divorce, don’t do anything that would betray the Li family, understand?” Jiang Feng believed that Xiao Miaomiao could do this.

After all, she was the child he raised with his own hands. If she did something wrong, it was because we elders hadn’t educated her well.

“I won’t, Grandpa, I won’t do anything to make you ashamed of me,” Xiao Miaomiao replied firmly.

“Alright, just make sure you keep your word.”

Jiang Hai encouraged Xiao Miaomiao and asked her to sign the documents.

“Miaomiao, here’s this, this is our Li family’s dowry for you,” Li Chen also brought over the dowry they had prepared.

Xiao Miaomiao looked at her grandfather, seeing him nod, she knew there was no problem. She didn’t look carefully, just flipped to the end and signed.

Those in the Jiang family who knew the situation twitched their mouths. They weren’t worried about her being sold, or maybe they were just too trusting.

“Jiang Chen, this is for you, sign it,” Li Chen took another document and handed it to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen looked at his family in confusion, why was there one for him?

Jiang Chen didn’t naively open the documents like Xiao Miaomiao, he took a deep breath. No wonder Grandpa and the others were so agreeable, the terms in this document were all beneficial to Miaomiao.

If Li Chen stepped down and Li Jingcheng didn’t wake up, and Miaomiao didn’t have children, Li Corporation would be given to Jiang Chen, as long as he ensured Xiao Miaomiao and Li Jingcheng’s later years.

Similarly, if Li Jingcheng woke up and Xiao Miaomiao didn’t have children and wanted a divorce, Li Jingcheng would have to give half of his shares to Xiao Miaomiao, and their assets would be split 50/50 as compensation for Xiao Miaomiao.

Of course, if they had children, there was no way they would agree to a divorce.

Moreover, Xiao Miaomiao already had a 10% stake in the Li family. With all this, Jiang Feng couldn’t refuse, and besides, this was what Xiao Miaomiao wanted, to marry Li Jingcheng, so Jiang Feng had no reason to object. He just wasn’t happy because he originally wanted to use the dowry he prepared for Xiao Miaomiao to give her confidence, but the Li family’s preparations were more thorough, which made him a little upset.

“Are you really going to sign, Grandpa?” Jiang Chen looked at the document, suddenly reluctant to sign. Jiang Corporation was already enough for him to handle, if Miaomiao and Li Jingcheng didn’t have children, he would also have to manage Li Corporation, he wouldn’t even have time to rest.

“This is your sister’s guarantee, you say you’re going to sign or not?” Jiang Feng rolled his eyes at him.

Jiang Chen realized there was no room for refusal. At this moment, he suddenly hoped that what Grandpa Li said was true, that Miaomiao was truly a lucky star, even if Li Jingcheng didn’t wake up, she should still have a child, he really didn’t want this hot potato.

Li Chen saw his reluctance and knew he hadn’t misjudged the person. He also approved of the Jiang family’s education. If anyone else had such a good opportunity, they would have wished for Xiao Miaomiao and Li Jingcheng not to have children, so they could inherit Li Corporation. Only the Jiang family wouldn’t want it.

Xiao Miaomiao didn’t know what they were talking about in riddles, she looked over and was surprised. No wonder Grandpa agreed so quickly, the Li family had thought of everything for her.

This meeting between the two families ended with Jiang Chen signing.

No matter what, both families were clearly satisfied. Thus, Xiao Miaomiao officially became the Li family’s young mistress.

The Li family also breathed a sigh of relief. The Jiang family had compromised, otherwise, they really wouldn’t have been able to stop the Jiang family from taking Xiao Miaomiao back. After all, they were in the wrong.

Xiao Miaomiao went shopping with Ouyang Xuan with a peace of mind.

She had 6,000 yuan to buy gifts for the Li family. Although the money wasn’t much, Xiao Miaomiao carefully selected gifts. She even bought a music box for Li Jingcheng.

Ouyang Xuan also liked the gifts Xiao Miaomiao bought for her. It was a silk scarf, the same style as the one Grandma Li had, but their patterns were different. Both were very suitable for their temperaments.

“Xiao Miaomiao, what are you doing here?” Liu Yueyue saw Xiao Miaomiao and her face turned ugly. She knew everything. Xiao Miaomiao had taken half of Hong Wenbin’s property, which was originally her son’s, but it was all taken by Xiao Miaomiao.

“How dare you ask for half of Wenbin’s property, you’re so greedy,” Liu Yueyue angrily looked at her, “That was all my son’s.”

Xiao Miaomiao scoffed at her logic.

“Why shouldn’t I? It’s what I deserve. He cheated on me during our marriage. If I wanted, I could have taken more, not just half. If you want to talk about shamelessness, it’s you. You knew he was married and still got involved. And you said Hong Wenbin’s property is your son’s, when did he say he would marry you?” Xiao Miaomiao mocked her.

“If he really cared about you, he wouldn’t have let you get pregnant before marriage, he wouldn’t have let you be his mistress and give birth to his child,” Xiao Miaomiao looked at her with pity.
