Chapter 1121: Marriage Is a Responsibility
Jiang Li told herself to endure it first and have a good talk with Blake.
“Ms. Qing Xin, this is a specialty of Country M. I hope you like it.” Blake pushed a box in front of Jiang Li.
Jiang Li raised her eyebrows slightly and forced a smile. She pretended to be calm and said, “Mr. Blake, this is a gemstone, right?”
Seeing this, Blake quickly opened the box. Inside was a set of expensive sapphire jewelry.
Whether it was the original value or the workmans.h.i.+p, it was perfect.
Jiang Li did not show any joy. On the contrary, she showed an indifferent expression and asked with disappointment, “Mr. Blake, I don’t think you know me very well.”
Blake did not understand what she meant and thought that Qing Xin just did not like the jewelry. He quickly said, “Country M has better gemstones. I hope you can take a look with me, Ms. Qing Xin.”
Jiang Li took out her phone, took out a set of jewelry, and handed it to Blake.
Blake was stunned at first. When he took Qing Xin’s phone and saw the photo on it, he widened his eyes in shock.
So, the jewelry that he first took a fancy to was bought by Qing Xin?

“Does Ms. Qing Xin like this set too? I like it too, but I’m a step too late.” Blake’s tone was full of disappointment.
Jiang Li smiled faintly, but her tone was stiff. She said in a cold voice, “Mr. Blake misunderstood. This is a set of jewelry that I randomly picked. I’ve already given it to my disciple as a gift.”
This set of jewelry was indeed in Jiang Li’s hands.
When she first bought it, it was only to match the clothes, so she did not take it to heart. Who knew that it would come in handy today.
Since she had said it to this extent, Blake should have understood, right?
Such jewelry…
She could have as many as she wanted. Would she care about such a simple set?
Blake looked embarra.s.sed. After returning the phone to Jiang Li, he hesitated to continue the conversation.
He was very confident in his G.o.ddess and could get her favor, but in the end, he was slapped in the face.
If it were anyone else, they would have found a way to leave, but Blake would not.
Although his methods of pursuit were tacky, his heart was real.
What a pity!
Jiang Li had also exposed Blake’s sincerity.
She looked at the jewelry in the box and suddenly said, “I remember now. When I was traveling in Country M some time ago, I heard that you were engaged. I didn’t have time to congratulate you.”
Blake suddenly raised his head, and his shocked expression gradually darkened.
He forced a smile. “That is only for profit.”
“Blake, what are you talking about? Marriage represents responsibility.” Jiang Li looked at Blake with disapproval. Her answer was very firm.
Her tone changed, and her att.i.tude became even colder. “Of course, you may not think so.”
Blake quietly looked at the woman in front of him. When he had contacted her through the phone, she had acted a little close to him, but now she revealed a sense of disappointment. His heart was slightly aching.
He really wanted to say that he was not an irresponsible person.
He was willing to sacrifice everything for his lover.
However, where was his lover?
A wave of panic rose in Blake’s heart. He instinctively reached out his hand. “Ms. Qing Xin, you misunderstood me. I didn’t mean…”
“Teacher?” Jiang Man appeared with a face full of surprise.
When she turned to look at Blake, she showed an even more delighted expression. “Are you Miss Angie’s fiancé? h.e.l.lo!”
Blake’s expression suddenly darkened, revealing a thick murderous aura. However, the woman who appeared did not sense any danger at all. Instead, she continued to maintain her innocent smile, causing anger to rise from the bottom of his heart.
“Do you know Mr. Blake’s fiancé?” The moment Jiang Li saw her, she heaved a sigh of relief. She felt that she was about to be saved.
Jiang Man faced Jiang Li and answered with a smile, “Yes, teacher. Miss Angie is also your fan. She is a very lively and cute lady. She especially likes Qiu Huang’s dress.”
What did Jiang Li think?
Angie did not have such an image.
She did not know whether it was the foreign girl Lydia who was too naive or it was Angie who was good at pretending, but this had nothing to do with her.
“I see, then I’ll ask Mr. Blake to cherish her! Goodbye.” Jiang Li stood up and said goodbye to Blake before leaving the restaurant with Jiang Man.
Blake sat motionlessly in his original seat. Under the reminder of the bodyguard, he finally reacted.
He put away the jewelry on the table, stood up silently, and slowly left.
After Jiang Li walked into the company, she asked with a smile, “Lydia, are you familiar with that Miss Angie?”
“No, I’ve only met her once,” Jiang Man answered with a smile.
Jiang Li did not continue this topic but brought up the design problems. Jiang Man also seized the opportunity to ask a few more questions.
When they were about to part, Jiang Man took a deep breath and asked, “Ms. Qing Xin, can I add your social media account? If there are other questions…”
“Sure!” Jiang Li smiled and took out her phone.
Of course, the account she used belonged to ‘Qing Xin’ and not Jiang Li.
Jiang Man was especially happy. She added Qing Xin’s account and also exchanged contact details.
She had made the right decision.
