People were coming and going inside the Haochen Building and no matter whether they were men or women, they were all dressed in neat and tidy work uniforms. When Jiang Baiwan entered in her casual clothes, she felt as if she had broken into a place she doesn’t belong to and was incompatible with the surroundings.

Fortunately, the lady at the front desk still knew Jiang Baiwan and when she saw Jiang Baiwan approaching, the receptionist even smiled at her. Jiang Baiwan hurried forward and said, “I’m here to find Ji Chen, can you please tell him for me.”

The receptionist’s eyes lit up. “President Ji is currently in the office. Please wait a moment.”

Jiang Baiwan sat on the side and waited. It wasn’t long before Assistant Xu personally came down to pick her up. “Miss Jiang, President Ji is waiting for you in his office.”

Jiang Baiwan nodded and followed Assistant Xu upstairs. When she was leaving, the receptionist even made a cheering gesture towards Jiang Baiwan.

Assistant Xu took Jiang Baiwan to Ji Chen’s special elevator directly connected to Ji Chen’s office. Assistant Xu opened the door for her and they saw Ji Chen sitting at the desk with a slight smile on his face. “What’s the matter? Suddenly coming to see me.”

For a moment, Jiang Baiwan was caught by Ji Chen’s beauty. It was the sound of Assistant Xu closing the door that woke her up. Jiang Baiwan walked to Ji Chen’s desk and while looking at that handsome face, she impulsively took out the bank card that Ji Hongfa gave her just now from her bag and slapped it on Ji Chen’s desk. “Here’s the five million.”

Ji Chen looked at the bank card calmly, then sighed suddenly and stood up. “In that case…… it’s not that I can’t agree.”

Jiang Baiwan: “???”

“Five million isn’t much, but it’s not too little either.” Ji Chen slowly tugged at his tie. He was originally a cold and serious president, but at this moment, he was giving a hint of an evil aura. “I’ll give you a discount. This money is enough for me for a month.”

Jiang Baiwan finally understood and she rushed to stop Ji Chen’s hand. “No, no, no, this is what your father gave me earlier.”

Ji Chen tilted his head, still very relax. “I know, I’m just joking with you.”

As he spoke, Ji Chen naturally took Jiang Baiwan’s hand and gently led her to sit down on the sofa inside the office.

Jiang Baiwan was a little confused. “How do you know?”

“This card, I got it from my dad back in the day.” Ji Chen glanced at the bank card on the table. “What did he say to you?”

Jiang Baiwan breathed a sigh of relief and told Ji Chen what happened in the coffee shop. After listening, Ji Chen smiled instead. “Isn’t this quite good? Just take what Dad gave you.”

“But this……” Jiang Baiwan likes money, but she had to get it in a proper way. “I……”

“Do we have to divide everything between you and me?” Ji Chen walked to the desk and picked up the bank card. “I’m courting you now, so it’s only right to give you a little gift. This five million is your pocket money and you can do whatever you want with it.”

Jiang Baiwan’s hands shook, mentally curbing the impulse to extend her hand, and said righteously, “No, this money—”

Without saying a word, Ji Chen directly put the card into Jiang Baiwan’s hand. Jiang Baiwan held it and only felt her heart bleeding. She gritted her teeth and finally put the card back on the coffee table. “Ji Chen, what kind of person do you take me for? Am I someone who will concede with money?”

Ji Chen didn’t get angry. Instead, he took out another card from his pocket and placed in Jiang Baiwan’s hand with a probing look in his eyes. Jiang Baiwan clearly understood what he meant—— Is it enough if I add more?

“It’s not about money!” Jiang Baiwan also put down the other card. She shook her head off and gritted her teeth to make up her mind. She said with a serious expression, “Ji Chen, I—”

“Shhh.” Ji Chen pressed a finger on Jiang Baiwan’s lips. “I know what you’re going to say.”

Jiang Baiwan blinked her eyes, only to hear Ji Chen say, “Do you still remember what I said to you on the Ferris wheel before?”

Jiang Baiwan’s heart shook and her eyes widened a little.

Ji Chen turned to knead her ears instead, saying in a low voice, “I know all about it. However…… you don’t seem too keen to talk about it.”

The cheerful atmosphere in the office disappeared in a flash and Jiang Baiwan only felt as if something had pinched her throat, making it impossible for her to utter any words.

Yet, Ji Chen’s eyes remained soft and his gaze at Jiang Baiwan was still very gentle. “You’re not covering it up well.”

Jiang Baiwan opened her mouth and struggled for a long time before she could squeeze out a little voice from her throat. “H-how did you find out?”

“The contrast.” Ji Chen said, “The contrast is a bit too big.”

“Moreover, she’s got a bit of a bad taste.”

Jiang Baiwan was still quite nervous, but when she heard Ji Chen’s words, she couldn’t help but smile. “What do you mean by that?”

Ji Chen glanced at her. “She likes Chu Yunhan.” So she has bad taste.

“So I have a good taste?” Jiang Baiwan understood Ji Chen’s implication and couldn’t stop mentally roasting him on his narcissism once again.

Ji Chen lowered his eyes, his ears turning red. “Because…… you like me.”

Jiang Baiwan froze and after she realized it, two blushes gradually crept up on her cheeks.

The sunlight poured on the two of them through the window. Ji Chen and Jiang Baiwan were very close to each other. Neither of them spoke, but Jiang Baiwan, who had been restless for so long, suddenly settled down.

She suddenly had someone to share her biggest secret with, and that person told her that he had known about it all along.

“What a joke. I’ve been trying my best to hide it for so long.” Jiang Baiwan let out a long sigh of relief. “So I was seen through from the very beginning.”

Ji Chen smiled. “After all, the previous you would have never ridden an electric bicycle in an indoor shirt.”

Jiang Baiwan touched her face. “That, since you know everything…… then……”

“I don’t know everything.” Ji Chen interrupted Jiang Baiwan. “But…… I believe none of this is a coincidence. It’s better to live a good life than to be paranoid every day, don’t you think?”

Jiang Baiwan and Ji Chen looked at each other, and after a long silence, she nodded with difficulty. “Spiritual Mentor, you’re right.”

“So, just take the card my dad gave you.” Ji Chen changed the subject and put the bank card into Jiang Baiwan’s hand once more. “You have to adapt to it in advance, after all, the Ji family have nothing but money.”

The tenderness in Jiang Baiwan’s heart was wiped out by a bank card in an instant—— Wicked rich man!

“This is given by your father to your fiancée.” Jiang Baiwan sneered. “When did I agree to be your fiancée?”

Ji Chen looked at her in surprise when he heard that. “When I said you like me, you didn’t refute. I like you too, so in that case, won’t we get married in the future?”

Jiang Baiwan: “???”

Has she been set up again?

———

When Jiang Baiwan took her leave, she still left the bank card behind. Despite wanting the five million, but after taking it, she would feel like she was being taken care of……

“Are you the only one who has a card?!” Jiang Baiwan stood at the bottom of Haochen Building, aggrieved. “I have a card too!”

“What card do you have?” Behind him, a man’s voice came abruptly. Jiang Baiwan looked back and saw that it was Luo Xiao.

Luo Xiao stood on the side of the road, dressed in a suit with his hair neatly combed. The only thing that remained unchanged was the smile on his face. “A 20% discount card for the Malatang shop?”

“Not only that, I also have a membership card to the bakery.” Jiang Baiwan raised her eyebrows. “What are you doing here?”

Luo Xiao approached a little closer. “We’re in venture capital, so of course we’re out looking for clients. Would you like to have a cup of coffee?”

“No.” Jiang Baiwan was about to say something else, but she suddenly saw Ji Chen come out as well.

Ji Chen originally had a smile on his face, but after seeing Luo Xiao, that smile quickly disappeared.

Luo Xiao didn’t seem to feel Ji Chen’s hostility towards him at all as he smiled and nodded to Ji Chen. “President Ji, you’re here too.”

“Hmm.” Ji Chen answered briefly and walked over to Jiang Baiwan’s side. He deliberately held her hand in front of Luo Xiao and said in a low voice, “You forgot something at my place. I brought it down for you.”

Jiang Baiwan was feeling uneasy when she saw these two men together, and when she heard Ji Chen say this, she was even more puzzled. “What did I forget at your place?”

“Pocket money.” Ji Chen smiled and took out the bank card from his breast pocket and showed it to Jiang Baiwan.

Jiang Baiwan: “……”

She felt that it was necessary to have a good chat with Ji Chen in private about this habit of throwing money at people, although as the one who was hit, the feeling was really complex……

Luo Xiao stared at the bank card and he sighed. “President Ji is so kind to Xiao Wan. You can give away such a black card as soon as you say it.”

Jiang Baiwan smiled awkwardly, neither accepting nor refusing, feeling like she was about to suffocate.

“Xiao Wan, have you ever thought about using your money to invest in venture capital?” Luo Xiao suddenly started to attract business for himself in front of Ji Chen. “Just treat it as helping me get some transaction?”

Before Jiang Baiwan could speak, Ji Chen flatly refused, “No thanks. Anyway, Mr. Luo, we have something else to do, so we won’t disturb you.”

After speaking, Ji Chen dragged Jiang Baiwan away without saying a word. Luo Xiao stood at the same spot and looked at the two people’s distant backs. He couldn’t help muttering, “Is it necessary? Guarding against me like guarding against a thief.”

Even the president of Haochen Group can also act like a fool when it comes to love.
