Chapter 235: Chapter 235: Is Jiang Zhe Real or a Deception in the Photo? Chapter 235: Chapter 235: Is Jiang Zhe Real or a Deception in the Photo? It was a very luxurious mall not far from here.

“Okay,” Jiang Zhe replied.

He then realized that he had also received a transfer in his WeChat.

It was from Jiang Xiruo, one hundred thousand.

With a note telling Jiang Zhe to also buy himself some nice clothes.

Jiang Zhe accepted it, tucked his phone into his backpack, and walked inside.

Xia Enci whispered to Jiang Zhe, “My mom gave me so much money this time, I might need to shop all day to make it count! Everything I see and like, I will buy!”

“Yeah, buy,” Jiang Zhe nodded.

“Do you know how much money my mom gave me?” Xia Enci asked Jiang Zhe.

Jiang Zhe shook his head to indicate he didn’t know.

“Sixty thousand! Sixty thousand! I feel like my phone has gotten heavier in my hand. Before, I only had eight hundred for my monthly allowance.”

Xia Enci was very happy.

Jiang Zhe thought about his own one hundred thousand… and said nothing.

Anyway, as long as she was happy, that was good.

So Jiang Zhe accompanied her as she shopped around in the International Trade Center.

Actually, for the not insignificant sum of money that Xia Enci had, she didn’t really buy that much.

But she wasn’t only buying luxury goods, she indeed bought quite a lot of things.

After storing the items, Xia Enci realized it was already six in the evening.

They were busy shopping at noon and only grabbed a quick bite, and now her stomach was rumbling with hunger.

“I’ll treat you to dinner,” Jiang Zhe offered.

“Isn’t that a bit too much? It’s always you spending,” she said.

Jiang Zhe pointed to the items she had bought, which were not all for herself; she had bought things for Jiang Yaowang, Jiang Xiruo, and Jiang Zhe as well.

Xia Enci laughed, “Alright, alright, you treat.”

Jiang Zhe chose a western restaurant.

The restaurant was crowded these days, and there were no private rooms available.

He and Xia Enci were just there for dinner and weren’t very demanding about the environment.

“This one, this one will be fine,” Xia Enci said crisply, choosing dishes based on the appealing images.

Jiang Zhe followed suit and ordered a steak, but no wine, opting for a freshly squeezed juice instead.

“Let’s go back after we eat; I bet you can’t walk anymore, right?” Xia Enci’s legs no longer felt like they belonged to her.

Jiang Zhe was fine, feeling nothing particular.

Chen Bo’an also got up early today; normally, this would have been his time to catch up on sleep.

However, he went out early because he came back early after hanging out last night.

The people who invited him out were two friends, one named Wang Shaojie and the other Kuang Bo; the three of them planned to have a meal and then hit the clubs.

Chen Bo’an stood at a second-floor spot, holding a cigar in his hand.

Despite the heavy dark circles under his eyes, he had an air of debonair charm that only the Chen Family’s young master could carry.

Wang Shaojie brought over a glass of red wine and handed it to Chen Bo’an, “Bo’an, how did the blind date go last night? Why didn’t you bring her out to meet us?”

“It didn’t go well; she wasn’t someone to show off.” Chen Bo’an thought back to the previous night’s experience and felt annoyed.

He had taken the initiative, yet she left first, leaving him hanging.

“I’m surprised you’d even go on a blind date. I thought you were really taking things seriously and wanted to settle down, be a good man,” Wang Shaojie joked.

“Then I must be dreaming. I went because my mom sent me that photo, which was just… I heard her name is Jiang Zhe, tsk.” Chen Bo’an made a gesture that only his group of hedonistic friends could understand.

Otherwise, why would he go on a blind date? Waste his precious time!

Wang Shaojie perked up at the mention, “Show me the photo! I want to see what she looks like!”

Chen Bo’an pulled out his phone, scrolling to a picture.

It was sent to him by Yao Xiangzhi.

Obviously a sneaky shot, you could only make out half of the girl’s face, in a poorly lit spot where all the light seemed to be focused on her.

Especially since she was wearing a school uniform, which added a certain abstinent charm to her.

“Not bad, this chick!” Wang Shaojie blurted out in praise.

“Who knows? I wanted to meet her to see what she looked like. When I got there, she had left. I figure she must not be much to look at, or she’s ashamed to show her face. Nowadays, there are too many photo scams.” Chen Bo’an complained.

Wang Shaojie’s eyes suddenly fixated, “Bo’an, look downstairs, isn’t that Jiang Zhe, your blind date?”

Chen Bo’an looked down and saw two girls.

One was dressed very fashionably and was carrying a nice bag.

The other was wearing the Jincheng First High School uniform, exactly like the one in the photo.

He recognized her as Jiang Zhe at first glance, even though she was currently seated with her back to him.

But that long hair was indeed very distinctive; without seeing her face, her presence couldn’t be ignored.

Even in conservative clothing, her silhouette seemed to carry a hook, as if capable of snatching someone’s heart away.

Chen Bo’an chuckled. It seemed she wasn’t that busy after all.

Was what she did yesterday a case of playing hard to get?

Wang Shaojie, having been friends with Chen Bo’an for many years, could tell what Chen Bo’an was thinking in just one glance.

“Kuang Bo, let’s go down and take a look.”

Kuang Bo had been listening in the whole time, although not joining the conversation, he had caught the gist of the situation.

Eager for some entertainment, he immediately extinguished his cigarette butt and followed Wang Shaojie.

“Keep it in measure,” Chen Bo’an advised since both their families were in business and not much constrained by reputation.

But Chen Bo’an’s father, still on his career path, valued these things highly.

Wang Shaojie smiled, “Got it. If she turns out to be a beauty, I’ll leave her for you; if she’s a photo scam, we brothers will take her off your hands.”

Jiang Zhe and Xia Enci’s steak had finally arrived.

“Oh my, I’m so hungry,” Xia Enci unfolded her napkin, “Xiaozhe, let’s eat.”

Hearing Xia Enci calling Jiang Zhe’s name, Wang Shaojie and Kuang Bo confirmed that this was Chen Bo’an’s blind date.

Wang Shaojie had a glass of red wine in his hand, and when he reached their table, he loosened his grip, shattering the glass on the edge, splashing red wine all over the table and floor.

Jiang Zhe had just picked up her fork and knife when the steak got splashed with red wine and shattered glass.

She froze.

A waiter nearby wanted to help but was intimidated by a glare from Wang Shaojie, who was a regular and a VIP at the place.

Wang Shaojie could only see Xia Enci’s face, a loli-like face, very cute and obedient.

Even without seeing Jiang Zhe, he felt the trip downstairs was worth it.

“Sorry, little ladies, my hand slipped. Here’s what we’ll do, big brother will treat you to steak as an apology, please move to the upper floor,” he said.

Hearing this slick voice, Jiang Zhe knew exactly what these two were up to.

She didn’t stand up or argue, only saying, “Apologize, and then set up a new table for me.”

This was her greatest extent of tolerance.

Xia Enci, hearing her speak, kept silent.

Wang Shaojie, enchanted by Jiang Zhe’s voice, became even more excited, “I’m sorry, little sister, but it’s no fun eating by yourselves, right?”
