Chapter 667: What’s So Urgent?
“What are you packing?” Jiang Qingsong walked over and asked. He picked up a random item. “This is not bad. Give me one. I’ll give it to the client.”
“What!” Jiang Ning s.n.a.t.c.hed it away. “Don’t lie to me. Everyone knows that you’ll take it to coax the women in those brothels! Giving it to a client? Ha! Besides, these are my own things, not the company’s!”
Jiang Qingsong looked at his empty fingers unhappily. Facing Jiang Ning, he felt a little helpless.
Now that Old Master Jiang had handed over all the big and small matters to Jiang Ning, Jiang Ning already had the demeanor of a head of the Jiang family.
Although she looked like she would be easy to bully, she was very principled and gradually revealed her abilities. She gave people a feeling that she was not easy to deal with, which gave Jiang Qingsong a headache.
If Jiang Ning was really the head of the family in the future, their lives would probably not be easy.
“Jiang Ning, what’s the point of treating me like this? No matter what, I’m still your cousin. In the future, when you become the head of the family, how could I not help you? Instead of trusting outsiders, why don’t you trust me more?”
How could Jiang Ning not understand him? Previously, when her grandfather was seriously ill, Jiang Qingsong and the others were not in a hurry to hire a doctor. Not only were they not in a hurry to hire a doctor, but they were also causing trouble in private.
If something had happened to Grandpa at that time, the Jiang family would have long been divided up by them. How could it last till today? Yet, they were all speaking their dignified words and acting as if they had worked hard.
“Of course I trust you as my cousin, but I don’t need you now. I’ll look for you when I need you in the future!” Jiang Ning didn’t directly fall out with him, but her tone didn’t have much respect.
Jiang Qingsong snorted. “Then remember what you said.”
“I’ll remember. There’s nothing for you to do here. You can go out first,” Jiang Ning said.
Jiang Qingsong had no choice but to leave first.
He was on his way out when s.h.i.+ Jin walked in.
She had been wearing a hat and sungla.s.ses. As she walked in, she took them off to reveal bright eyes and a small face the size of her palm.
Jiang Qingsong’s eyes widened, but when he thought of Fu Xiuyuan, he immediately lowered his head and did not dare to look at her. It was not until s.h.i.+ Jin brushed past him that he looked up at her back.
s.h.i.+ Jin reached the place Jiang Ning had mentioned and knocked before entering.
Jiang Ning skipped to her side and pulled her over to sit down.
“What’s so urgent?” s.h.i.+ Jin asked after sitting down.
‘I’d like to give a friend a bracelet, but I don’t know which one she’d like. Can you give me some suggestions?’
“Have you learned about your friend’s preferences?” s.h.i.+ Jin asked.
Jiang Ning took out the few jewelry bracelets that she had just put away and placed them in front of s.h.i.+ Jin. “Aiya, anyway, I only know her general preferences and don’t dare to judge casually. I know that your aesthetic standards have always been good. Help me take a look.”
The bracelets were unique, but the design and style were simple and generous. It was obvious that they were made by the Jiang family. The jewels on it were obviously expensive.
s.h.i.+ Jin picked out the lightest pink bracelet and said, “I think this one is very good. The color is light and elegant. It fits very well.”
“Wow, I think so too.” Yuning quickly picked it up and pulled her hand towards her. “Then try it on for me first.”
s.h.i.+ had no choice, but to let her fiddle with her wrist.
This light pink bracelet did not look very eye-catching, but it was indeed very lovely. Especially since s.h.i.+ Jin’s skin was very fair, it was especially compatible.
“It looks good,” s.h.i.+ Jin said softly and was about to take it off for Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning pressed her hand down. “If it’s not bad, just wear it. It’s for you, Sis.”
“For me?” It took her a moment to realize what she was saying, and she laughed. Actually, with her IQ and EQ, she should have realized that by now.
However, she did not have any friends in her previous life, nor had she experienced too many beautiful details like spending time with friends, so she did not think in that direction at all.
Jiang Ning said with a smile, “That’s right. I’ve wanted to give it to you for a long time, but I knew that you wouldn’t be willing to accept it. Also, I was afraid that you wouldn’t like what I liked, so I thought of this method. Don’t take it off. Since I gave it to you, I don’t want it back. This is my kindness as a friend. You can’t reject it.”
s.h.i.+ Jin had actually accepted it in her heart. In this life, she was able to experience a lot of love.
Jiang Ning’s innocence was something she had always envied and looked forward to. s.h.i.+ Jin would not reject such a friend.
“Okay, I’ll take it. Thanks,” s.h.i.+ Jin said generously.
“That’s good!” Jiang Ning smiled happily.
Outside, Jiang Qingsong, who had followed them, could not help feeling a little sour when he saw this scene. This bracelet was at least two to three hundred thousand yuan. Jiang Ning was really generous to give it away just like that, but she wouldn’t even let him touch it.
If the Jiang family was in Jiang Ning’s hands, wouldn’t she waste all the money? Wouldn’t it be harder and harder for him to live under her oppression in the future?
Jiang Ning put away the other bracelets and said to s.h.i.+ Jin, “Then I really have a favor to ask of you.”
s.h.i.+ Jin pretended to take off the bracelet. “Take that thing back. I’m under too much pressure. Who knew that I would really have to help after accepting this?”
“Sigh, forget it. I won’t ask you for help anymore.” After saying that, Jiang Ning realized that s.h.i.+ Jin was joking and couldn’t help but laugh.
s.h.i.+ Jin did not continue to remove the bracelet. Jiang Ning also put away her playfulness and took out an invitation card. She said, “In a few days, the Jiang family will be receiving the Princess Consort of England. This is a very important occasion. This time, Grandpa asked me to be in charge of this reception. It’s a form of training and an examination for me. Also, the last time Grandpa was sick, the Jiang family split into many factions. Everyone is eyeing the family business covetously. Grandpa also took the opportunity to let me stabilize quickly and master the Jiang family business as soon as possible. This matter is too important. This is the first time I’m in charge of such an important matter. I’m afraid that I won’t be able to stabilize it alone. Can you come to this banquet?”
“Sure,” s.h.i.+ Jin said without thinking.
“That’s great!” Jiang Ning’s face lit up.
“Is there anything I need to prepare and help with?”
Jiang Ning shook her head. “Actually, not for the time being. With you around, I’ll feel more at ease and can face this occasion more calmly. It’s already very, very good that you can come.”
“Okay, I’ll come,” s.h.i.+ Jin promised solemnly.
Jiang Ning suddenly choked up. “Tsk, it’s actually because I was too willful in the past. Just because I’m the daughter of the Jiang family, I did whatever I wanted.”
