Chapter 19
Found a Treasure
After a morning of fighting, Chen Che only got five dollars in the end, but he was already satisfied.
His actions also stunned the auntie!
Just as he came out of the public toilet to wash up, the beautiful woman arrived as scheduled with breakfast in her hand.
Seeing that Lin Xi’s eyes were still red, Chen Che walked forward with heartache.
After smoothing Lin Xi’s hair, Chen Che asked, “Did you not sleep well last night?”
“No, I slept especially well. Is it because I don’t look good?” Lin Xi smiled and tried her best to hide it.
“Of course not. You’re like a lotus flower that just bloomed out of the water, very captivating.” Chen Che chuckled.
“You’re sprouting sweet nothings so early in the morning.” Lin Xi pouted and blushed.
“Why? You don’t like it?” Chen Che asked.
“I do. I like whatever you say.” Lin Xi smiled. “Let’s go and have breakfast first.”
Just like before, the two of them finished their romantic breakfast in the park.
At this moment, Chen Che suddenly thought of something. He looked around and said, “That’s right. Why didn’t the cameraman come today? I was wondering why I felt that something was missing.”
Lin Xi chuckled. “What’s wrong? Are you still not used to it?”
“A little.” Chen Che grinned.
“The production team informed me this morning that they have a last-minute meeting, so they won’t be filming this morning. They’ll probably only be in position at ten o’clock,” Lin Xi explained.
“I see.” Chen Che nodded. Since there were no cameras, he changed the topic. “Lin Xi, I’m sorry.”
Lin Xi was stunned. She blinked and asked, “Why are you apologizing?”
Chen Che smiled. “Stop acting. I know something happened to your company. I asked you again and again yesterday, but you still refused to tell the truth.”
“You know? It’s… it’s Jiarui who looked for you?” Lin Xi frowned. She was very smart and instantly knew who.
That was because the outside world still did not know about the company’s incident, and it was even more impossible for Chen Che to know. The only possibility was that Han Jiarui had told him.
“Yes.” Chen Che did not hide anything.
“When did she look for you? What did she tell you?” Lin Xi asked.
“After the filming ended last night, she didn’t say anything. She just felt upset for you,” Chen Che replied casually.
Of course, Lin Xi wouldn’t believe her. She knew Han Jiarui’s personality very well.
“That’s impossible. She must have said something nasty, right? Jiarui is like that. Didn’t I tell her to stay out of it?”
Seeing that Lin Xi was a little unhappy, Chen Che hurriedly said, “Aiya, I really didn’t say anything. Moreover, you should be happy to have such a best friend who looks out for you.”
“Sigh.” Lin Xi sighed. “We knew each other before we started our business. She took care of our logistics.”
“The company has developed to this day because of her. All the external businesses were negotiated by her. I understand her feelings, but I really don’t want anyone to interfere in our relationship.”
Hearing this, Chen Che understood why Han Jiarui was so angry last night.
However, Chen Che did not take it to heart. As he had said, it was a good thing that Lin Xi had such a person by her side.
Chen Che smiled and hugged Lin Xi. “Alright, alright, don’t think too much. I won’t care. As long as you don’t despise me, I don’t care about anything.”
“Of course I don’t despise you. I’ve always believed that you won’t be poor for the rest of your life.” After a pause, Lin Xi continued, “Also, Jiarui might be exaggerating. The company’s situation isn’t as serious as you think. It’s very dangerous for you to ride a bicycle to deliver packages. Don’t be distracted by this.”
Lin Xi was clearly in trouble, but she was still worried about Chen Che.
Chen Che was also extremely touched by her words. What reason was there not to love such an affectionate woman?
“I know.” Chen Che nodded. “No wonder the netizens hate me so much. I finally understand now.”
“What do you mean?” Lin Xi asked in confusion.
“Because I found a treasure. Marrying a wife is the blessing cultivated for three lifetimes. Let others be envious.” Chen Che chuckled.
“You’re so annoying. All you know is how to talk.” Lin Xi blushed shyly, but her heart was warm.
…
8:30 a.m., LI Costume Design Company.
As soon as Lin Xi entered the office, she saw Han Jiarui waiting on the sofa.
“You’re early,” Lin Xi greeted.
“How could I not come? My phone is exploding with calls from my partners!” Han Jiarui sighed.
“What did they say?” Lin Xi asked.
“Compared to Rima, the remaining brands are more humane.”
“They said that as long as we resolve this situation, the cooperation can still continue. After all, they admire your talent.”
“Unfortunately, apart from the two of you separating, how can I resolve it?”
As she spoke, Han Jiarui kept observing Lin Xi, hoping that Lin Xi would figure it out.
However, Lin Xi could already tell that there was a hidden meaning in her words. She said directly, “It’s impossible to separate. It’s all slander anyway. Why should we sacrifice our relationship for it?”
Hearing this, Han Jiarui knew that there was no hope. She sighed and said, “The two of you are not compatible in any way, but your stubbornness is really similar.”
“To be honest, I went to look for Chen Che last night. He’s just as unwilling to give up as you are. It’s really worrying.”
“I already know.” Lin Xi nodded and continued, “Jiarui, I understand that you’re worried about me, but I beg you to leave us alone, okay?”
“Do you think I’m willing to interfere in your relationship?” Han Jiarui pursed her lips. “Then tell me, what should we do now? We can’t just give up like this, right?”
Lin Xi rubbed the space between her eyebrows. “By the way, don’t you know a lot of media friends? Ask them for help?”
...
Han Jiarui spread out her hands. “Do you think I didn’t look for them? But they said that it’s too difficult. Forcing them to clear your name might have the opposite effect.”
“In their words, I’ve never seen someone as stingy as Chen Che. He’s abnormally stingy!”
“Let’s not talk about what the netizens think. They all think that Chen Che is like an actor.”
Lin Xi pursed her lips and said, “Looks like we have to figure something else out.”
“You have to hurry. The brand only gave you two days.” Han Jiarui sighed helplessly and continued, “But don’t be too stressed. At most, you can go to your love and I’ll continue to drift.”
Hearing her jealous words, Lin Xi hurriedly sat down beside Han Jiarui. “It’s not like that. Don’t make it sound so tragic.”
Han Jiarui pouted. “Not to that extent? You forget your friends now that you’re in a relationship!”
“I didn’t.” Lin Xi smiled awkwardly.
“Alright, I won’t tease you anymore. Since things have come to this, I’ll support whatever you do as long as you’re happy,” Han Jiarui said sincerely.
“Jiarui, thank you.” Lin Xi gave Han Jiarui a big hug.
…
...
Soon, it was time to get off work again. Chen Che arrived at the entrance of the building on time.
After a while, Lin Xi walked out of the building.
Seeing that Lin Xi was in good condition, Chen Che was also very happy. He smiled and said, “Let’s have a feast tonight. It will definitely be a feast.”
Chen Che deliberately emphasized the word ‘definitely’.
