You Look Like You’re Made of Money

Chapter 41 (1)



"We don't need to have a baby so soon. We won’t just be a two-person world after having one. Anyway, I’m still young so we can wait a while longer." Jiang Jingchuan said simply, "Or we can have one a few years later, I’m not rushing to be a father."

Su Yan felt helpless, she wanted to pick up a rose and hit him on his head. She was scrambling about having to make up her mind about having a kid. Now that Jiang Jingchuan actually said that it didn't matter if they had one a few years later.

How can you not be mad?

“...... Oh.” She decided to ignore Jiang Jingchuan's whim at this moment.

Maybe tomorrow he’ll regret it again.

"By the way, I almost forgot to tell you that I’ll be going to London for a business trip next week. I'll probably be there for a week or so. I wanted to take you with me, but you're going to be busy with embroidery now." In the past, Jiang Jingchuan often travelled. Back then, he only felt that he was just going to another place to sleep. Now he was a little reluctant, he was eager to bring Su Yan with him.

"A business trip?" Su Yan wanted to follow Jiang Jingchuan to go outside to see, but when she thought of what she promised Zhou Lu, her expression was a little lost, "Oh right, if you didn’t mention it then I would have forgotten to tell you. Guess who Zhou Lu’s client is? You would never have guessed!”

"Who, it someone I know?"

"It's Lu Yang, I was shocked when I saw him. The world really is small. He’s doing the ceramics exhibition for his grandfather. Su Yan wasn’t a person who believes in coincidences, once is a coincidence, two or three times, she’ll start to think of it as something else.

Jiang Jingchuan was slightly surprised: "No wonder he just called and said that he saw me as if it was coincidentally?"

"Jing Chuan, I don't quite understand what's going on in your business field, but I've heard you say that Lu Yang's current situation is not so good, right?" This was the vigilance cultivated in the harem, and if there is a relationship of interest between people, then similar coincidences are questionable.

Jiang Jingchuan nodded, and his face was also serious, "Indeed, Old Master Chen is interested in his ability. In fact, clear-eyed people can see that Lu Yang is just being superficial. He is also being guarded against. To put it mildly, this Old Master Chen can't survive for long, if he dies then his days won’t be easy. Lu Yang also knows about this, so he’ll definitely find a way to control the Chen family."

Don't even talk about whether they’re all grandchildren or whatnot, in the eyes of some of the older generation, they are all outsiders as long as you have a different surname. Old Master Chen really doesn’t have a choice now, he will hand over the Chen family to Lu Yang, but whether this is long-term or temporary, is unknown.

Su Yan carefully looked at Jiang Jingchuan and said, "You see, the last time I met Lu Jiaying, it was two years ago. It was already very coincidental, the result was that Lu Yang was actually Lu Jiaying's cousin, that time can also be said to be a coincidence. This time, with a city so big, I actually met Lu Yang for business. I really can't take these as coincidences, Jingchuan, I can't help you in the company's business, but I can't drag your hind legs. If there really is a problem, I will tell Zhou Lu that I won’t continue with the project.

No matter what feelings she has for Jiang Jingchuan, they were husband and wife in the same boat. No matter the issue, she had to unite with him.

Even if she lost faith in Zhou Lu, she didn't want to bring unnecessary trouble to Jiang Jingchuan.

Jiang Jingchuan was still very pleased that Su Yan could have such a consciousness, reached out and touched her head, and said softly: "Not as serious as you think, I would also think the same if I were Lu Yang. Lu Yang is not bad, doing business also has its own specialties, maybe we’d cooperate with him in the future, you never know."

He paused, and this time there was more of a teasing element in his tone, "Besides, you’re that worried about me? Rest assured, I have my own precautions.”

Su Yan still thought of everything too simply. One day, he and Lu Yang can cooperate, of course on the premise that Lu Yang can bring benefits to Jiang.

"Anyway, I think it's really a coincidence." Jiang Jingchuan made up his mind. Lu Yang was not that kind of person, at least if he really wanted to do something, it would be watertight.

Su Yan flattened her mouth: "I know, you must mean that I think too much."

After Jiang Jingchuan's analysis, she felt that she had not yet jumped out of her original thinking, always taking the set in the harem to think of others. In the end, her vision was too limited.

"No, no, no, if you feel that something is wrong, you can discuss it with me directly, no one has reminded me of this before. Sure enough, my wife is intimate with me." Jiang Jingchuan felt that this was a very novel experience.

In the past, no matter how complicated the relationship between the company, he had to keep things to himself. Now that his wife was helping him share some concerns, his psyche felt relaxed.

The two came to the Jiang Mansion, and as usual, Old Mr. Jiang took Mrs. Jiang out fishing, and they haven’t returned yet.

As soon as Jiang Jingchuan came, he was called into the study by Daddy Jiang, saying that he wanted to ask about the company.

Mother Jiang asked the kitchen aunt to bring a bowl of rock sugar bird's nest and said to Su Yan: "Knowing that you were coming today, I let the auntie make this, try it."

When Su Yan took a small sip of the soup, Mother Jiang asked: "I heard Xiao Chuan say that you came back early this time because of an accident at home, is it solved now?"

"Everything is good now." Su Yun's divorce was basically ironclad, Su Yan and Jiang Jinchuan weren’t going to participate any further.

All in all, Su Yan has decided, that until Su Yun's divorce gets finalized, she isn’t going to meddle.

"It's okay, I've also heard Xiaochuan say something about it. Your family is quite wise, divorce is the best solution to such a matter. Don’t be polite when you need help from Xiaochuan, we are all family after all."

Su Yan listened to Mama Jiang say this, she thought of what Jiang Jingchuan said. Mama Jiang likes to read romance novels, not the comedic kind, but the sadomasochistic ones.

"Well, thank you, Mom." Su Yan quickly bowed his head and continued to drink the bird's nest.

When Jiang Jingchuan came out of the study, Mama Jiang pulled him into the room and whispered: "I was inconvenient to tell you on the phone, but while you and Su Yan were on a trip, the Wang family girl came over trying to stir up some trouble."

Jiang Jingchuan was a little confused, completely unaware of this matter.

"Xiao Chuan, you remember a little, no matter what unpleasant things you had with Xiao Yan before, she is still your wife, and I know that you don't mean that to the Wang family girl, but you should still pay attention to it in the future." Mother Jiang is not going to mix with her son and daughter-in-law’s matters, but she felt that she should still remind her son that if she knows that the other party is interested in him and there was no hope for them, then they should stay far away from each other.

It was enough for him to make his wife happy, whether or not other women were unhappy shouldn’t matter to him.

"Mom, I know." Jiang Jingchuan was also a little angry, he felt that he and Wang Siqi had spoken clearly enough, how could she still look for his mother?

Did you want him to put it in the newspaper to explain?

"Xiao Chuan your mother believes in you, but remember don't look at how smart that Wang girl usually is. To get involved with a married man, don’t wait for your wife to solve it for you. This is not her trouble. If she gets upset one day because the Wang family girl is unhappy, don't say that she is unreasonable, because you did not handle it well."

Jiang Jingchuan listened and nodded, "I know, Mom, thank you."

Seeing her son like this, she knew that he understood, and Mother Jiang breathed a sigh of relief, "You live a good life with Xiao Yan. This child's heart is not bad, and her character is not bad, so treat her well."

Su Yan was sitting in the living room watching TV. At this time Daddy Jiang came down from the upper floor, and said somewhat unnaturally: "Xiao Yan, I heard Xiao Chuan say that the words in his office were written by you?"

This was the first time that his father-in-law had said so much to her. Su Yan was somewhat flattered.

She and her father-in-law basically had nothing to say to each other. They’d usually just nod at each other, not saying anything.

This was the most common portrayal of the relationship between father-in-law and daughter-in-law.

"Well, yes." Su Yan still heard the doubt in Father Jiang's tone.

Presumably, he did not believe that she had written the words and thought that his son was bragging.

When Father Jiang heard this answer, he was silent for a moment and said, "The handwriting is good." Then there was nothing more to say, so the atmosphere turned quite awkward. Jiang Jingchuan and Jiang's mother went downstairs, and the atmosphere was finally eased.

Until the meal, Old Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang did not come back, they called for the driver to come to pick them up.

There was no second elder present, Jiang's father and mother Jiang were not people who talked a lot, and only Jiang Jingjing was talking non-stop at the dinner table.

Probably because of the last time they went shopping together, the relationship between Su Yan and Jiang Jingjing also moved closer to the direction of friends, and after dinner, Jiang Jingjing pulled Su Yan into the room to gossip.

Jiang Jingjing's whispers revolved around a man, the number 4 male lead that showed his face on a TV drama.

Su Yan looked at the photo of this eighteen-line male artist, looked at Jiang Jingjing, and asked with difficulty: "Jingjing, what do you like about him?" He actually looked very average, at least she didn't see anything attractive.

Jiang Jingjing's eyes widened, "Didn't you watch that TV series, the role he played was very obsessive and handsome. Even though he knew the cannon fodder didn’t like him, he still helped her do bad things." Oh, she sees, Jiang Jingjing loved the character, not the person,

"Just like it." Su Yan did not think of breaking reality, nor did she think of giving Jiang Jingjing lessons. This was what she likes, and it was bad for someone to disdain what another person liked.

"I asked for his WeChat, and we had a good chat these days. He said that after the crew finished, he would come and invite me to dinner." No matter how Jiang Jingjing usually looked, she was still a little girl at heart.

Su Yan found that although the brothers and sisters of the Jiang family looked very shrewd and rational. In terms of feelings, they were all rookies.

She also did not ask Jiang Jingjing if the actor knew she was miss Jiang.

People who grew up in this kind of environment knew about these things. Don’t look at how Jiang Jingjing is squealing about right now, she definitely knew.

Whether others were sincere or false, she believed that Jiang Jingjing could tell, and this was not up to her to worry about.

At this moment, Jiang Jingjing's mobile phone rang, and she did not shy away from Su Yan and picked it up, speaking fluent English the whole time.

Su Yan listened from the sidelines and couldn't help but be stunned. She suddenly thought about Jiang Jingchuan going abroad to London, and how he was speaking fluent English while they were on the island together. She felt a bit lost at their wide range of choices.

She didn't know if anyone else would feel that way, but she did.

Whether she loves Jiang Jingchuan or not, in the face of such a man, she also had some competitive desire. She knew she couldn’t catch up in terms of career, but she wanted to win against him in places she can.
