Chapter 2054: Chapter 1328: Sigh~_2
“Jiang Sang, rest assured, Li Ji will arrange everything, and no one will find out. Fujiwara Reiki is still in mourning, so Koda Kaoru will accompany you to Korea.”
“…”
Jiang Chen was silent.
Fujiwara Reiki’s lips curled up as she walked gracefully closer, “Miss Duanmu has returned, Jiang Sang is alone. Don’t you feel lonely?”
“I’m just going for a visit, won’t stay long.”
Fujiwara Reiki held his arm, “It’s okay, however long Jiang Chen-kun stays, teacher will stay with Jiang Chen-kun for that long. It’s been a while since teacher last went to Korea.”
This is what you call acting.
She’s already in character.
No need for charging or a wind-up.
Shalessness is definitely a skill, not only applicable to n but also to won.
Just as Mr. Jiang was running out of tricks, the butler Shota walked into the courtyard.
“Mr. Jiang, you have visitors.”
They weren’t really unrestrained. In the presence of outsiders, Fujiwara Reiki, or rather Koda Kaoru, let go of his hand.
“Let them in,” Jiang Chen said.
Then, Cui Wen entered the courtyard, accompanied by a woman with neat bangs, a delicate figure, and a modest and charming deanor.
Hebei Cai…
Not right.
No surprises.
It should be his actress girlfriend, Asada Yurika.
Shota stepped back.
“Jiang Chen, this house isn’t yours, is it?”
Cui Wen looked around, clicked his tongue in wonder, and then naturally noticed the inherently charming Fujiwara Reiki.
Fujiwara Reiki smiled politely at him.
Cui Wen’s expression was stiff, not because he lacked composure, as her smile was just a courtesy, but because he felt numb.
Comparing oneself to others can indeed be infuriating.
The frequent change of female companions was sothing he could understand, but…
Why are they all goddesses?!
And they’re all so different in style.
These extraordinary won may not be easy… to collect, even with money, right?
Of course.
He’s not an ungrateful person. Whatever his thoughts might be, he wouldn’t possibly report Jiang’s affairs to Fang Qing.
Even if he can’t repay him, he wouldn’t repay kindness with ingratitude.
“Hello, I’m Jiang Chen’s old schoolmate, Cui Wen.”
Cui Wen quickly adjusted his expression and greeted Fujiwara Reiki.
“He’s the ran shop owner I ntioned.”
Jiang Chen wasn’t deliberately neglectful, surprisingly, he took the initiative to introduce Fujiwara Reiki.
“She is my business partner…”
Jiang Chen was about to introduce Fujiwara Reiki, but she interrupted and took over, maintaining an elegant and poised deanor.
“Hello, I am Jiang Chen-kun’s teacher, Koda Kaoru.”
“…”
Jiang Chen was silent.
Teacher?
Cui Wen was a bit dumbfounded.
Is there such a type of teacher?
“Miss Koda isn’t from Shen Zhou, is she?”
He asked tentatively.
“I once worked in Shen Zhou as a foreign teacher, and it was during that ti I t Jiang Chen-kun.”
Fujiwara Reiki explained.
Cui Wen suddenly understood and then exclaid, “What a coincidence!”
“Who says it’s not.”
Fujiwara Reiki glanced at Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen acted oblivious, his gaze falling on the quiet Japanese actress.
Seeing her in person, she indeed lived up to her na, definitely the virtuous wife and good mother type.
“And this is…”
“Oh.”
Cui Wen reacted imdiately and introduced, “She’s the girlfriend I ntioned to you last ti, Asada Yurika.”
When he ntioned his girlfriend’s na, “Asada Yurika,” he deliberately emphasized his tone, but Boss Jiang had already rembered.
“Miss Asada, I can only say that Cui Wen has good taste, so please take care of him in the future.”
Cui Wen smiled wryly.
Asada Yurika blushed bright red.
“Jiang Chen, can’t you be serious? Yurika, don’t take it seriously, he’s joking with you.”
Asada Yurika nodded, glanced at Jiang Chen, then lowered her head.
“Thank you very much, Mr. Jiang.”
Cui Wen stood nearby, not stopping his girlfriend from expressing her sincere gratitude.
It’s no exaggeration to say.
For the two of them, this was a favor akin to a new lease on life.
“What’s this all about?”
Jiang Chen looked puzzled.
Cui Wen held his girlfriend’s hand, “Jiang Chen, stop pretending. The Yamaguchi-gumi suddenly terminated their contract with Yurika, without any conditions, and even returned the money they took from . If it wasn’t your doing, was it Buddha’s blessing? I’ve never even offered a single incense to Buddha.”
After venturing abroad for all these years, even if I haven’t achieved great success, at least I understand this world better than most people.
There’s never such a thing as a stroke of great fortune from the sky; it’s only possible with the help of soone influential.
And among the influential people I know, aside from the old alumni who have had a few bowls of noodles at my shop, I can’t find another person.
“You know, your old alumnus friend here is just a noodle shop owner, without much capability. So, no matter how much effort you exerted, my ability to repay is limited. Send your account number, and I’ll transfer the money that the Yamaguchi-gumi returned to , along with an additional three million. Consider it my debt to you. I understand you may not be in urgent need of money, so please allow to repay the three million over ti.”
Jiang Chen smiled.
“You’re quite good at planning.”
Cui Wen put on a look of indifference, “This is the extent of my ability, I can’t give you more. If you have the skill, you could ask the Yamaguchi-gumi to take Yurika back.”
Asada Yurika was calm and composed, clearly aware that her boyfriend was joking with their good friend.
Even though she wasn’t a big star, she understood the Yamaguchi-gumi’s power well.
For soone who could easily get the Yamaguchi-gumi to release her, such a person wouldn’t care about this money.
“Since she’s with you, saying sothing like that is irresponsible.”
Jiang Chen seized the opportunity for a lesson when the goodwill was t with threats.
“If the Yamaguchi-gumi really took her back, where would you find another beautiful girlfriend like her?”
Cui Wen gave him a secret look of “you’re still amazing.”
“I know you’re envious, but let’s keep business separate. Send your account number; I can only promise to repay the three million as soon as possible.”
“Jiang Chen-kun now has a successful career; such an amount is insignificant to him, so you don’t need to stand on ceremony.”
Fujiwara Reiki spoke up for Jiang Chen.
“Miss Fujiwara, your Chinese is really good.”
Cui Wen now believed she might indeed be a teacher, “I know he’s not short of money, but I can’t let him help for nothing. That he’s not short of money is his business; paying back the money I owe is mine. Moreover, without Jiang Chen, the money would have ended up with the Yamaguchi-gumi, and Yurika wouldn’t be back; I would have lost everything.”
Fang Qing’s profession certainly wouldn’t allow for emotional decisions; when she “introduced” soone to visit Cui Wen’s shop, it was likely not just because the person was her old classmate.
Not all classmates are worth contacting.
Cui Wen did not disappoint Fang Qing’s judgnt; his seemingly dismissive words actually contained a heart full of gratitude.
“You said last ti that the Yamaguchi-gumi drained all your savings. If you give all your money to now, how will you manage your life next?”
Jiang Chen asked.
“Ha.”
Cui Wen brushed it off with a smile, not taking it seriously, “Jiang Chen, are you underestimating ? With both hands and feet intact, could we still starve to death? Back in Tokyo alone, I managed to survive; now returning ho, how could we possibly not make it?”
“You’re really not reopening the shop?”
“No. Although the Yamaguchi-gumi won’t cause trouble anymore, Yurika and I had already planned to change environnts for living, and we won’t relive the past.”
The gentle realm, the hero’s tomb.
These words are true.
With a loved one, ambition quickly diminishes.
Jiang Chen didn’t persuade, “You’re a grown man; you might survive on coarse grains, but are you bringing Miss Asada to Shen Zhou just to suffer?”
“I’m not afraid of hardships.”
Before Cui Wen could speak, Yurika quickly responded.
Cui Wen paused, and both he and Jiang Chen laughed.
Including Fujiwara Reiki.
“See that?”
Cui Wen gave Jiang Chen a triumphant look while holding his girlfriend’s hand tighter.
“You got there.”
Jiang Chen sighed with a smile and said, “Alright then, I won’t accept this money for now. You will surely continue your business when you return ho, so consider this a loan. Only by making money can you repay , including the three million, sooner. Otherwise, who knows how long it will take.”
“You’re good at scheming!”
Cui Wen looked down on him but then nodded, “Alright, we’ll do as you say, and the interest will follow market rates.”
Jiang Chen nodded.
“Then I won’t disturb you anymore, Miss Koda, goodbye.”
Cui Wen held his girlfriend’s hand, turning away gracefully.
“Mr. Jiang is truly a good person.”
Asada Yurika said softly, clearly seeing the kindness in him.
Cui Wen acknowledged with a “Hmm.”
“So we must work hard not to disappoint him.”
“I trust in you.”
Asada Yurika held on to her boyfriend’s hand tightly.
Jiang Chen watched the loving couple leave, when suddenly, a lodious sigh ca from his side.
“Sigh～”
