Crossing 70: Fish in the Pond Have Good News

Chapter 529 Goodbye Chen Fufeng

"Rejected? Tell me how you felt when you heard his confession." Jiang Yu straightened her posture and wanted to have a good chat with her best friend.

Xue Li paused for a moment and scratched his hair in distress. "I had lunch with him outside that day. We had just finished a meeting with a client, so we found a restaurant nearby. When we were chatting, we mentioned you, Yi Chi, and Wu Ge. I said that a stable relationship can bring many benefits to people. For example, inner peace can make people bolder... Then Deng Jiaxing asked me if I envied this kind of stability. I said it was okay... Then he confessed to me..."

"That was quite sudden..." People were just chatting with him, but he took advantage of the situation to make a fuss. It was really confusing.

Jiang Yu also felt that Deng Jiaxing had no sense of ritual. There had been a lot of foreign movies on TV recently, so why hadn’t he learned anything?

Xue Li showed a speechless expression, "I was just dumbfounded. I didn't know how to answer his question... To be honest, it's not like I don't have any feelings for him. He has been with me for the past two years and has done so many things for me. I can see his thoughts, but I really don't want to devote part of my energy to love. I'm currently discussing cooperation with several old brands of cosmeceuticals, and I want to add a beauty and skincare area in my newly opened large supermarket... I'm really busy and don't have time. I don't know why he brought it up so suddenly."

"Maybe it's just a random conversation..." Jiang Yu didn't understand Deng Jiaxing's thoughts, but according to what Xue Li said before, he should just go with the flow.

"Then I rejected him. I said I didn't have the energy to think about this issue right now, and I wouldn't consider it in the short term." Xue Li supported his head and sighed a little tiredly, "But now I think about it, am I too direct? Deng Jiaxing has been at the farm these two days, and we haven't had close contact. Maybe he was worried that we would be embarrassed."

"Follow your own ideas. If you want to talk, then accept him. If you are busy and don't have the energy, then tell him clearly. I believe he is aware of your situation and will understand." Jiang Yu seemed to see the scene when Xue Li broke up with Chen Jinghan. At that time, she was always hesitant and thinking about this and that... But she was really ruthless, so she was able to break up cleanly without dragging it out and wasting the energy of both parties.

Xue Li turned to look at Jiang Yu, his tone full of envy, "Why can't I meet someone like Yi Chi?"

"What about him?"

"He's caring, capable, hardworking, and knows how to share your burdens. He's really thoughtful." Xue Li counted on his fingers.

Jiang Yu smiled and thought to himself that it was because you didn't know his psychological problems. Fortunately, now that he has left his previous living environment, this guy's overall condition is relatively stable and there is nothing wrong. Otherwise, you wouldn't envy me.

However, if you measure Yi Chi from the perspective of others, he is indeed a rare object. He is excellent in all aspects and can take care of everything at home and outside. Jiang Yu only needs to take care of his own affairs, because the other party will take care of everything and arrange everything properly.

"You are still busy with work, so just do that first. After everything else is arranged, you can make a careful choice." Although Jiang Yu didn't know exactly what Xue Li's specific requirements were for his other half, compared to the little surprise Chen Jinghan had prepared before, Deng Jiaxing was indeed a bit too straightforward.

Xue Li hummed, "Let's just go with the flow. I'm not free right now anyway, so let's talk about it later."

The car stopped outside Xue Li's small supermarket. Jiang Yu was going to buy some cigarettes, alcohol and other gifts. As for the gifts for the girl, she could choose silk scarves and pearl jewelry. She had bought some of these two items when she met other craftsmen before. She kept them in the safe in the villa and would go back and get two of them later.

In the evening, the setting sun is red, lying on the orange clouds.

Jiang Yu went to the hotel first. Xue Li waited for her to get off the car and then drove away. She wanted to drive Jiang Yu's car back to the museum and then pick up the girls from her own company.

The marble floor was clean and tidy. Jiang Yu wore a loose Taoist-style gown and soft cloth shoes with thousand-layer soles that made no sound when she stepped on the ground. Her long hair was casually draped behind her. She held an ebony bracelet in her hand, turning it from time to time.

Behind him was a waiter who helped carry things.

The hotel manager who happened to be talking to a lady at the front desk saw her come in, greeted her, and walked over quickly, "Ms. Jiang, are the guests about to arrive?" They came so early, so he had to ask someone to notify the chef to prepare the appetizers.

Jiang Yu shook his head, "Not yet, please help me put these things away first. The people who will have dinner with me later are my girlfriend's relatives, and these gifts are for them."

"Okay, I'll take it to the restaurant for you." The manager agreed with a smile.

The woman who had her back to him also turned around.

Jiang Yu saw the man out of the corner of his eye and was stunned for a moment in surprise.

Chen Fufeng put on a more sincere smile on his face and walked towards her, "Long time no see, Jiang Yu."

Jiang Yu still had a cold expression and said in a very calm tone, "Long time no see."

"Do you have time? Let's chat for a while?" Chen Fufeng glanced at the time. It was 4:35. Even if he wanted to have dinner, it would have to be after 5 o'clock.

Jiang Yu did not refuse and nodded.

The manager glanced at his boss, put away his curiosity, and led the two to the coffee shop. As it was getting late, he asked for their opinions, ordered fruit tea for them, and brought a plate of fresh-cut fruit to the table before leaving.

Chen Fufeng tapped her fingertips on the table. Her cold white skin was set off by the black surface, and she stared at Jiang Yu for a long time.

Jiang Yu was still holding her bracelet, her black and white eyes drooping lazily. The other party didn't speak, and she had no intention of speaking either.

In the end, it was Chen Fufeng who spoke first, "Does your museum welcome antiques brought back from abroad?"

"I suggest you contact the large museums built by the government directly. The National Museum in City B will open next year, and they should be in greater need of the antiques you mentioned." Jiang Yu finally looked over.

Chen Fufeng shrugged. "Is your museum not okay? Or do you think it's too small now? In that case, I can invest in you."

"Thank you for your kindness, but you should know that if I need investment, I just need to ask." Jiang Yu rejected the other party's proposal again.
