Looking at the phone screen, Jiang Baiwan’s instinct told her it wouldn’t be a good thing. Tan Mi on the side came over curiously. “What is it? Can you show me?”

Jiang Baiwan covered her face and handed the phone to Tan Mi, who took it and have a look. She immediately laughed. “I didn’t expect that Ji Chen is actually a man of action. He said he wants to pursue you and now he’s starting.”

“I……” Jiang Baiwan felt that this matter was very difficult to handle and didn’t know whether to be happy or reject it. “I was kind of comfortable with him before when we’re getting along as friends, but now……”

Now the two of them had switched places, and after breaking the barrier, Jiang Baiwan felt as if her hands and feet were tied as she didn’t have the same personality as the other Jiang Baiwan. She wanted to avoid Ji Chen for a few days, but didn’t expect President Ji to be quick in action.

Just when Jiang Baiwan was frowning, there was a knock on the door. Tan Mi told Jiang Baiwan to sit down and opened the door herself. She saw Assistant Xu standing at the door with a package in his hand.

When he saw Tan Mi was the one who opened the door, Assistant Xu froze for a moment before resuming his usual unperturbed demeanour. “Miss Tan, I’m here to deliver a gift for Miss Jiang.”

“Come in.” Tan Mi also knew Assistant Xu, so naturally she wouldn’t stop him. “What’s that thing in your hand?”

Assistant Xu raised his eyebrows and avoided Tan Mi’s extended hands. Tan Mi glanced at him and knowingly moved out of the way. Assistant Xu walked up to Jiang Baiwan in a few steps. “Miss Jiang, this is the gift that President Ji asked me to send.”

Jiang Baiwan’s face was filled with despair. “Would you believe me right now if I told you I’m not Jiang Baiwan?”

Assistant Xu chuckled twice. “Miss Jiang has always been so humorous.”

“……Bring it over.” Jiang Baiwan rubbed her face then straightened up. “What is it?”

Assistant Xu didn’t say what it was, presumably to keep the suspense. “This was personally prepared by President Ji so I also don’t know. I am only responsible for delivering it to Miss Jiang.”

Jiang Baiwan frowned and finally opened the packaging. She saw that the gift box was flat and not large, so she wondered what was inside.

Jiang Baiwan opened the lid and took a look. She was immediately stunned—— There was a golden card inside the box. Jiang Baiwan picked it up to examine it and heard Assistant Xu explain, “Miss Jiang, what President Ji has given you is the unified restaurant experience card for all restaurants under Haochen Group.”

Jiang Baiwan: “???”

Tan Mi on the other side was also taken aback when she heard it. Her gaze on the card became subtle in an instant—— What kind of magical card was this? Unified restaurant experience card?

“What do you mean?” Jiang Baiwan asked honestly, unable to understand. “What is this card for?”

“For eating!” Luo Xiao yelled from the kitchen and was immediately reproached by Tan Mi. “Shut up!”

Luo Xiao returned to silence once again.

Jiang Baiwan was dumbfounded. “Unified restaurant experience card?” What the hell?

“With this card, Miss Jiang can dine at any restaurant under Haochen Group without cost.” Assistant Xu smiled. “It’s the same when bringing friends.”

Jiang Baiwan didn’t know what to say. She originally intended to refuse on the ground that the gift was too expensive, but Ji Chen’s genius move made it impossible for Jiang Baiwan to refuse.

……This stuff is not expensive at all!

“President Ji said that he knows that Miss Jiang likes to taste delicious food, but he doesn’t want to cause an extra burden to Miss Jiang.” Assistant Xu continued. “So he gave Miss Jiang such a gift and asked to please not refuse it.”

Jiang Baiwan stiffly received the gold card. Assistant Xu was quick on the up take and said first, “Since Miss Jiang has accepted it, I will go back.

After saying this, Assistant Xu didn’t need to be seen off. He simply opened the door and left, coming and going in a hurry, leaving only the unified restaurant experience card behind.

“……If I didn’t know, I might think Ji Chen is a restaurant owner.” Tan Mi couldn’t help take a dig. “But this gift is clever.”

Luo Xiao stuck his head out from the kitchen. “The amount is not that much. After all, Xiao Wan, you won’t go to Haochen Group’s restaurant to eat every day.”

Jiang Baiwan held the card as her lips couldn’t help but curl up. “I always thought that Ji Chen was an honest person.”

Tan Mi looked at Jiang Baiwan and she probably had some ideas in her heart. “All right, being able to control such a large group, how can one be an honest person? Luo Xiao, let’s go. What are you doing in the kitchen?”

Luo Xiao came out still holding a bowl in his hand. “Nothing, I just want to taste the porridge cooked by President Ji.”

Tan Mi: “……”

The two were butting heads even when they walked out, leaving Jiang Baiwan alone in the living room with the gold card in front of her. Her nose crinkled as she thought of the check that Ji Chen had given her when they first met. She felt that the current Ji Chen was completely different now.

Before she could think more of it, Ji Chen’s call came.

Jiang Baiwan pressed the answer button petulantly. “Hello?”

“Have you received the gift?” Ji Chen’s voice had a hint of laugh. “Do you like it?”

Jiang Baiwan hesitated for a while, but in the end, she couldn’t speak without conscience. ” It’s hard to say.”

“That means you like it.” Ji Chen didn’t care in the slightest. “I knew that you wouldn’t accept it if I gave you something expensive, so I prepared it for you.”

Jiang Baiwan ‘Haha’ed’ twice. “I’d rather you give me a check for 200,000 yuan like before.”

The laughter in Ji Chen’s voice deepened. “Since we have agreed that I will pursue you, how can I use that method? Xiao Wan, I want to put you on an equal footing as me. Gifts are for enhancing our relationship, not to—”

“Stop!” Jiang Baiwan stopped Ji Chen in time. “Why did you call me? Just say it.”

Ji Chen paused before saying in a low voice, “Are you free tomorrow? I think it’s time to go on a date after giving gifts.”

Jiang Baiwan: “……Tell me the truth, who’s giving you these ideas behind the scenes?”

Sitting in the office, Ji Chen glanced at the book 《Seize the Love Knocking on the Door—— A Guide to Falling in Love》 in his hand, his face didn’t even blush. “No, it’s my own ideas.”

Jiang Baiwan leaned back in the chair and sighed. “All right, so have you thought of a place yet?”

Ji Chen said without hesitation, “A ski resort or a bowling alley. A golf course is also fine. If you want, I can also take you horse riding.”

Even through the phone, Jiang Baiwan could feel the words ‘filthy rich’. She pressed her temples with some headache. “Ji Chen, you really don’t have to do this.”

Ji Chen who was opposite line suddenly fell silent.

Jiang Baiwan almost thought that he had hung up the phone. After a long time, Ji Chen said, “I…… just don’t know what you like.”

Jiang Baiwan was also stunned.

The two held their phones like idiots and kept silent for so long that Ji Chen almost lost his confidence when he suddenly heard Jiang Baiwan say, “Amusement park.”

“What?” Ji Chen was dazed, then he immediately reacted. Eagerly responding, “Okay, amusement park it is. I’ll pick you up tomorrow.”

After hanging up, Ji Chen contemplated, then grabbed his phone again. He dialed a number and heard Jiang Zhishu shout, “Brother-in-law, what can I do for you?”

“Do you…… know what places your sister likes?” Ji Chen asked.

Jiang Zhishu froze for a moment. “My sister? Isn’t she fond of shopping malls? That’s right, there’re also all kinds of luxury goods stores. She doesn’t seem to like anything else other than that.”

Ji Chen hummed. “Okay, I got it.”

He hung up the phone and sat there pondering for a long time.

While on the other hand, Jiang Baiwan regretted it after the call was done.

She hadn’t much experience when it comes to relationship, let alone dating a man like Ji Chen. Moreover, using this body to fall in love with Ji Chen, for someone who had transmigrated in the book, it doesn’t seem right.

Who was it that Ji Chen likes? Would the original Jiang Baiwan be willing?

Jiang Baiwan rolled over in frustration and saw the restaurant experience card on the bedside table, feeling even more tangled.

In any case, she had already agreed to have a date with Ji Chen tomorrow, if it really wouldn’t work…… she could just make it clear with him all at once.

Jiang Baiwan lay on the bed and looked at the ceiling, thinking viciously, What are you afraid of?! Don’t fear! You still have 8 million in your hands! Man up! Isn’t it just confessing that you’re a fake?!

If the worst comes to the worst, she’ll sell the villa and then run away to another city!

———

The next day, while Jiang Baiwan was still lying in bed, she received a call from Ji Chen—— He was already downstairs.

Jiang Baiwan was still disoriented and her voice was much softer than usual, “Why are you so early?”

“I brought you breakfast.” Ji Chen ignored Jiang Baiwan’s words. “The amusement park opens at ten, you can sleep a little longer. I’ll wait for you here.”

After saying that, Ji Chen hung up the phone. Jiang Baiwan stared at the phone for a long time and finally resigned herself to get up—— She couldn’t really let Ji Chen wait for her downstairs!

When Jiang Baiwan finished washing in a hurry and ran downstairs, she saw a black car parked on the side of the road, its appearance was quite low-key. She hurriedly greeted Ji Chen and opened the car door to sit in the passenger seat. “It’s so cold today.”

“Is it?” Ji Chen very naturally took Jiang Baiwan’s hands and held it in his own. “Your hands are indeed cold.”

Jiang Baiwan looked at their connected hands, for a moment not quite used to this kind of Ji Chen. “……Can you let go of my hands first?”

Ji Chen squeezed Jiang Baiwan’s hands with an upright expression. “I’m just warming your hands.”

After saying that, he placed the breakfast he brought on Jiang Baiwan’s lap. “It’s still hot. I went to buy it on the way.”

It says in the book that you have to take action, not just talk. Ji Chen felt that he had put this into practice very well.

Jiang Baiwan narrowed her eyes and said suddenly, “It’s okay, you probably haven’t had breakfast yet, have you? I’ll treat you today.”

As she spoke, she took out something and waved it in front of Ji Chen. The thing looked shiny and golden, and it was the restaurant experience card that Ji Chen had given her.

Ji Chen: “……”
