Chapter 11: Is Jiang Handsome Going to Accompany Her to Make the Payment?

Page 1/3

A sudden gleam sparked in Jiang Heming’s eyes, followed by a soft smile curling at the corner of his mouth as he readily took Gu Zhaojing’s seat.
“Alright, since Sister Jiao is so generous, I, Jiang, naturally won’t stand idly by. Give me the configuration list!”
He picked up a pen and began ticking off items on the list one by one, then patiently explained the features of each option to her.
Overall, the cost of these high-end configurations ranged from a few hundred to several tens of thousands of yuan.
Xia Huajiao listened carefully, quickly forming a clear idea in her mind. She then turned to Xiao Chen beside her and pointed to the options Jiang Heming had checked: “Xiao Chen, which of these can be added today? Help me add them all, and calculate the total price. If I can take the car today, I’ll pay immediately!”
Xiao Chen promptly responded with delight, “Alright, please wait a moment. I’ll check...”
Meanwhile, on the other side, Gu Zhaojing spoke quietly into his phone with Mo Yingtai: “We just ran into Yue Huajiao Bai; she wants to buy the 740LI. Your cousin probably doesn’t want to get the same car as her, so she said she wanted a cheaper one.”
Mo Yingtai’s voice on the phone suddenly rose in surprise, “What? You met Yue Huajiao Bai?”
Gu Zhaojing remained calm, “She’s live-streaming her car purchase in the store, recognized Heming as the ‘Six Ones,’ but doesn’t know you’re ‘The Sound of the Waves.’ She seems very determined; I doubt she’ll give up on that car. Think quickly—should we go ahead with buying the 740LI, or switch to a cheaper car?”
After a few tens of seconds, Gu Zhaojing’s lips curved slightly. Turning around, he handed the phone to Mo Yanyu, who stood a few dozen steps away looking pitiful: “Your brother wants to talk to you.”
Mo Yanyu bit her lip in grievance and walked over to take the phone. Gu Zhaojing then stepped toward a nearby corner and saw Jiang Heming seated at his usual spot at the negotiation table, huddled with Xia Huajiao, looking over the sales contract.
Gu Zhaojing’s brows lifted involuntarily, a flicker of surprise flashing through his handsome eyes.
But he quickly withdrew his gaze, opened his phone, entered Yue Huajiao Bai’s livestream, put on his earphones, and began watching.
When he saw some viewers’ comments suggesting Xia Huajiao consider dating Jiang Heming, and noticed Heming did not outright reject the idea, Gu Zhaojing frowned again.

...

At the negotiation table, Xia Huajiao finished reviewing the purchase contract Xiao Chen drafted, then glanced at the livestream.
Ah, this time the barrage of comments was sparse, but the content was plentiful.
[Serious shopper Sister Jiao is so cool!]
[Has the green tea childhood friend been driven away? She hasn’t come back for so long.]
[If Sister Jiao really buys the car, I’ll tip a rocket!]
[Am I the only one who notices the handsome guy is always watching Sister Jiao?]
[Wow, Sister Jiao is so tough, the handsome guy is smitten!]

There were also some discussions about the configurations.
That’s why the total barrage tips exceeded 9,500 yuan.
Alas, without the teasing and comebacks between the childhood friend and the handsome guy, the comments are much fewer!
Moreover, the handsome guy is a romantic gentleman—how could he be smitten by her?
Xia Huajiao chuckled, looking at Jiang Heming beside her.
Their eyes met.
Rarely, the usual nonchalant air was replaced with seriousness, clarity, appreciation, and focus, adding a touch of masculine charm.
Seeing her gaze, his eyes flickered slightly before he smiled again, “So, really decided to buy it?”
Xia Huajiao smiled at him, then gracefully turned to the livestream and smiled brightly, “Thanks for all the advice, darlings. Sister Jiao has made up her mind—just add these options, total with license plate is 1.3 million yuan. I’ll swipe the card now and pick up the car in two hours!”
She quickly signed the contract, then stood up, holding the contract in one hand and her phone in the other: “Now, Sister Jiao is off to the finance department to pay! Handsome guy, thanks for your help. We’ll meet again if fate allows!”
Jiang Heming immediately stood up, waving his phone, “Miss Xia, we’ve been chatting for so long, how about adding me as a friend?”
“Hmm...” Xia Huajiao blinked in surprise, feigning puzzlement, “Why add friends? You’re so handsome, aren’t you afraid I’ll pester you if I add you?”
Seeing the laughter in her eyes, Jiang Heming quickly bowed with flair, “Just to chat more, hang out when we’re free!”
Xia Huajiao’s big eyes darted around, then she reined in her smile and said seriously, “But I don’t want to hang out with that Miss Mo!”
“Me neither!” Jiang Heming quickly clarified. “Zhaojing and I just get along well with her cousin... If we hang out, I promise not to invite her!”
Is that so?
Xia Huajiao tilted her head, thought for a moment, then shook her phone with relief, “Alright, since you helped me earlier, I’ll add you!”
After adding each other on WeChat and learning his full name, Xia Huajiao couldn’t help but praise,
“That’s a good name. Looks like your family has high hopes for you!”
“Your name’s great too!” Jiang Heming admired her, “It suits your livestream name and you perfectly! Come, I’ll go with you to pay!”
“With me?” Xia Huajiao’s almond-shaped eyes widened in surprise, “Aren’t you waiting for your friend?”
Jiang Heming shook his head disdainfully, “Mo Yanyu’s temper is a handful; she’ll definitely cause trouble. I’m too lazy to wait!”
Fair enough!

Xia Huajiao followed Xiao Chen to the finance department, curiously asking Jiang Heming, “Miss Mo’s cousin bought a 740 as her birthday gift, yet you and your friend just bought a ten-thousand yuan phone and a nearly ten-thousand yuan watch respectively. Quite a difference!”
Jiang Heming shook his head, “We’ve always given gifts like this every year. This car was a special promise Yingtai made to Mo Yanyu. If Yingtai weren’t on a business trip and only returning tonight, Zhaojing wouldn’t have asked me to accompany him to order the car, just to avoid Mo Yanyu pestering him.”
Xia Huajiao suddenly understood, then reminded him, “But now Mo Yanyu still found a good excuse to cling to him!”
Jiang Heming sighed helplessly, “Zhaojing won’t wait too long.”
Xia Huajiao raised her brow, “If your friend doesn’t like her, why not keep your distance? Why keep giving gifts every year?”
Jiang Heming smiled awkwardly, “No choice, the elders of our three families have a good relationship, and Mo Yanyu is very good at flattering them. We can’t be too harsh on her.”
Is that really no way out?
Xia Huajiao was unconvinced.
It’s just whether a man is willing to do it or not.
At that moment, they arrived at the finance department, and Xia Huajiao stopped her gossiping to focus on verifying the payment amount with the cashier and Xiao Chen.
Unbeknownst to her, Jiang Heming happily sent a message to Gu Zhaojing on his phone: “I added Miss Xia as a friend! She’s Xia Huajiao, matches her online name perfectly! And she didn’t ask for your contact info. Boss Jing, your charm doesn’t work on her!”
Before, whenever he was with Gu Zhaojing, the beautiful women would ask for Zhaojing’s contact.
Unexpectedly, Xia Huajiao didn’t ask at all.
A few seconds later, Gu Zhaojing replied: “So, you want to pursue her? What about that Ruan Tian? Bored of her?”
Jiang Heming glanced at Xia Huajiao, who was about to sign, his eyes softening unconsciously, replying, “That was just a fling, but I think Yue Huajiao Bai can be a friend!”
Gu Zhaojing: “Friends are fine, but don’t play around.”
Jiang Heming was stunned.
Gu Zhaojing never cared about his relationships with girls before. What’s gotten into him today?
Recalling that Gu Zhaojing had earlier responded proactively to Xia Huajiao’s questions, Jiang Heming immediately sent a puzzled message: “You’re actually protecting her? Did you know her before?”
