Rebirth: I Am Not the Movie Queen This Time
Chapter 209: Concern
CHAPTER 209: CHAPTER 209: CONCERN
Because there was a stranger nearby, Jiang Kechu hugged Wan Chu’er and then let her go, but he reached out to touch her face and smiled contentedly, "Hmm, not bad, you haven’t lost weight."
Wan Chu’er slapped his hand away, feeling it was impolite to ignore Yan Hui just like that.
In her view, Yan Hui was a person of glowing esteem and noble grace, such that in his presence, one would not harbor any ill thoughts and would pay extra attention to their own words and actions, fearing to disrupt any kind of beauty.
Wan Chu’er took Jiang Kechu’s hand and said with a smile, "Uncle Jiang, do you know Mr. Yan? How come both of you arrived together?"
She had thought these two knew each other when they showed up at her door.
Jiang Kechu’s mouth curled slightly as he said, "I’ve just returned to the capital, and I happened to run into this Mr. Yan downstairs. I thought he had gone to the wrong door."
Upon hearing this, Wan Chu’er quickly turned to Yan Hui with an apologetic smile and then introduced them generously:
"I’m sorry, Mr. Yan, this is my boyfriend Jiang Kechu. This is Mr. Yan from KY Group and also a legendary figure at our school, who is teaching this semester. Mr. Yan, what brings you here so early in the morning?"
From the moment Jiang Kechu stood beside him, he had been observing Jiang Kechu, and had also noticed Wan Chu’er’s affection for Jiang Kechu, and he guessed the relationship between the two.
It was clear that Jiang Kechu was no simple figure, and he was noticeably much older than Wan Chu’er. He had no idea how the two knew each other as there was no information about Jiang Kechu in the previous documents.
He smiled warmly, "It seems I’ve come at an inconvenient time, and there’s nothing urgent. I won’t disturb you two anymore, we’ll meet again later."
Clearly, these two hadn’t seen each other for a long time, and being a person who didn’t like to ruin the mood, he naturally took the hint to leave.
Wan Chu’er giggled and didn’t attempt to keep him, just cheerfully said, "Then Mr. Yan, see you."
Yan Hui waved his hand and then turned to go down the stairs.
Only after Yan Hui’s figure was out of sight did Wan Chu’er turn back into the room, shut the door, and then be tightly embraced by Jiang Kechu once again.
Wan Chu’er wrapped her arms around his neck, pouted her lips, and kissed Jiang Kechu’s mouth directly.
She really missed Jiang Kechu after not seeing him for so long.
The smile in Jiang Kechu’s eyes could no longer be hidden. He lowered his head, took the initiative, and pulled her closer into his heart.
The two parted, breathing heavily, after a while.
Jiang Kechu looked at Wan Chu’er’s messy hair and smiled, "Tell me about what happened while I was away."
Wan Chu’er lay on him, her hand playfully tracing his sharp features, casually saying, "I’ve just been studying hard and not much else."
Jiang Kechu felt itchy with her soft touch, but he also found the spots she touched incredibly comforting, like having an ice-cold ice cream during the scorching heat.
"What’s the deal with that Mr. Yan just now?"
"Oh, him." Wan Chu’er recounted the incident of Xiao Bai taking her to meet Yan Hui and then exclaimed, "Ah, don’t let Xiao Bai know you’re back, you owe him a beating."
Jiang Kechu raised an eyebrow, "How come I owe him a beating?"
Wan Chu’er couldn’t help but twist his face, pretending to be angry.
"You punched him without asking questions. He said he wanted to split us up. I couldn’t withstand Second Brother’s nagging, so I had to agree to let him hit back when you returned, and also not to hit back."
Although she sold out Jiang Kechu, it was all for the good of both of them.
Jiang Kechu looked at Wan Chu’er’s sly appearance and didn’t expose her little trick. He simply gave her bottom a light pat, saying:
"Don’t worry, leave your Second Brother’s matter to me."
Upon hearing this, Wan Chu’er immediately became happy. Not having to be sandwiched in the middle like an Oreo was indeed great.
"Pop!"
She planted a loud kiss on Jiang Kechu’s face as a reward.
Jiang Kechu thoroughly enjoyed it and then asked, "How’s your game coming along? Do you need my help?"
"No need, we just have to wait now. Everything that needs to be done has been done. My Second Brother is just waiting to make a good sale."
Jiang Kechu nodded and said, "Are you close with Yan Hui? Why did he come rushing over so early this morning? When I ran into him downstairs just now, he seemed to have a lot on his mind."
Observing people was Jiang Kechu’s forte; he instantly noticed something amiss in Yan Hui’s expression downstairs, even though the other party was hiding it very well.
Wan Chu’er thought about the suave and elegant demeanor of Yan Hui just now. She didn’t notice that Yan Hui seemed troubled, but she still said:
"Could it be he came to apologize to me?"
Maybe it was for what Zheng Yun did yesterday. Hmm, did he bring Zheng Yun’s letter of apology?
Jiang Kechu’s eyes flashed, staring intently at Wan Chu’er, he asked, "What did he do to you?"
Wan Chu’er shook her head, "Not him, it was his assistant."
She had no intention of hiding anything from Jiang Kechu. She didn’t tell Jiang Kechu before because she was afraid of disturbing him on his mission. Now that Jiang Kechu was back, since he asked, she would of course tell him everything.
So, she explained the matter with Zheng Yun very clearly, and then pouted, "This Zheng Yun is really incomprehensible. Luckily Mr. Yan has sharp eyes and wasn’t deceived by her."
Upon hearing this, dark shadows flickered across Jiang Kechu’s eyes. His girl had been bullied!
He found it hard to swallow his anger. Although Wan Chu’er did not mention it, he had to settle this matter.
"Don’t worry, I will get justice for you."
Wan Chu’er laughed, "Yan Hui has already promised me to make Zheng Yun write a letter of apology. For someone as proud as her, writing a letter of apology is already a blow."
Jiang Kechu shook his head with a smile, realizing that although this girl seemed prickly on the outside, she was actually very soft-hearted.
He changed the topic and praised her, "You did well. In the future, if you suffer any grievances, just fight back. I’ve got your back. But in this case, a spanking is due." With that, he smacked Wan Chu’er’s bottom twice.
Wan Chu’er’s eyes widened, and she propped up her upper body.
That’s too much!
She tolerated his slap just now, but he dared to slap her twice more.
She couldn’t let this slide.
"Uncle Jiang, I’m not a child!"
Jiang Kechu pulled her back into his arms, letting her continue to lie against his chest, and said sternly,
"When I left, I made it clear many times: if anything happens, go find Xiaoxiao and Xiao Shan. Yet, when you actually encountered something, you neither told me nor did you listen and find Xiaoxiao and Xiao Shan. If something serious had happened, what then!
Tell me, do you deserve a spanking?"
