Jiang Bao is not slow. Lu Min helped her three times and four times and refused to accept the check, so she would naturally notice it.
However, she has a good impression of people, and others may not have a good impression of her.
When their eyes met, Lu Min's expression froze.
Emotions of shock, surprise, and loneliness surged into my chest.
He had always politely rejected others before, but now he knows what it feels like to be rejected.
He knew what he was thinking at this moment, but he was already out.
Lu Min suppressed his ups and downs of emotions, spoke a thousand words, and finally just said calmly: "I understand."
A good tutor does not allow him to be aggressive and has no position.
Jiang Bao didn't eat much at night and quickly put down his chopsticks.
Lu Min also had no appetite, so he cheered up and said with a smile, "I'm going to pay the bill. There's no point in asking a girl to treat you."
Jiang Bao: "No, I asked you out, and I have to pack a copy to take back."
She raised her hand to ask the waiter to come over and handed the card over. Lu Min couldn't say anything else.
The two walked out of the restaurant. Jiang Bao stopped and asked, "Do you want me to take you back?"
"Don't bother, I'll just go back by myself." After a pause, he looked at the bag in the other person's hand and asked, "Don't you cook at home?"
"We just moved today, and we haven't arranged for a cook to come over yet."
Lu Min endured it again and again, and finally asked those words.
"Am I annoying you?"
"You are thinking too much." Jiang Bao got into the car and said in a calm voice: "It's not directed at you, but we are not from the same world."
The other party's tone was too calm, as if he was just stating the facts, and Lu Min was completely stunned.
But he actually understood, after all, she was so out of tune with the people around her.
Lu Min glanced at the foreigner driving and felt even more empty.
She is like a mystery, and people can't help but be curious, but many feelings start with curiosity, and by the time they find that they have paid too much attention, they have already changed qualitatively.
It wasn't until the car disappeared around the corner that Lu Min came back to his senses and walked forward slowly.
He didn't know what happened to him today. He should have said more words just now, but under her gaze, he became mute.
——
After Jiang Bao pressed the password, he heard the door lock ring. Jiang Yu, who was watching "Animal World", quickly jumped down from the sofa.
"Bao'er, will you buy me something to eat?"
His voice was cheerful, his hair was slightly curly, his light blue pupils were crystal clear, and his eyebrows were curved like an angel's when he smiled.
Jiang Bao: "Go and wash your hands first, and then come and eat."
Jiang Yu then ran to the kitchen, and came back a minute later with her wet hands raised high, sitting obediently at the dining table, waiting to be fed.
His brain is not as bright as that of ordinary people, and he has no problem eating and bathing. Because he grew up abroad, Jiang Bao needs to hug him when he is happy or sad.
Lin Can also came out of the study. Her brain was not enough for doing the questions every day, so she needed to supplement it with food.
Under Jiang Bao's gaze, he gave up his plan to add food.
Well, keep your carbs in check and tomatoes taste great too.
After Lin Can finished eating, she cleared the table and turned around to see Jiang Bao sitting on the sofa, reading documents.
This house is the first one facing the lake. It has a very good view and ensures privacy. Every staircase is clean. The price is 100,000 yuan per square meter.
The house was decorated uniformly by the developer. Many residents disliked the lack of taste and knocked it out and renovated it. Jiang Bao was too lazy to bother and just replaced the soft furnishings.
Lin Can walked over and asked, "Has the hotel's funding problem been solved?"
Although she can't help, she will take the initiative to understand the progress so that others will not smell her secret.
Jiang Bao will also tell the other party about the hotel.
"The problem is not big. I will solve it. I have already sent someone to talk about it."
Executives poached from other hotels are now put to use.
Lin Can hesitated and then said: "By the way, Xie Liaoyuan sent a WeChat message today, saying that he knows many people in Jiang City and can help you. How should I reply to him?"
Jiang Bao stretched out his hand: "Show me your phone."
She quickly read through the chat between the two people.
Lin Can didn't dare to talk to anyone about the messages from Xie Liaoyuan, so he only replied with one or two words each time.
Jiang Bao's fingers stopped on the last sentence sent by Xie Liaoyuan. If it had been in the past, she would have accepted it happily.
After all, before returning to China, I always felt that the other party was a gentleman.
The more Jiang Bao thought about it, the more wrong he became. Xie Lufan made a big mistake and was laughed at by the circle. This directly led to his father giving up on him completely and turning his attention to Xie Liaoyuan.
She had met that idiot Xie Lufan. He was so brave and intrepid that he didn't seem capable of causing such a big trouble... Xie Liaoyuan couldn't be involved here.
The more Jiang Bao thought about it, the more he felt that that guy was not a good guy.
But if the other party can help, there is no need to freeze.
"Sorry to trouble you." After Jiang Bao sent this WeChat message, there was an immediate reply.
Xie Liaoyuan: I’ll let you know when it’s done.
On the other end of the phone, Xie Liaoyuan laughed.
He has always felt that Jiang Bao has changed a lot during this period, but now it seems that he is still the same. He will not refuse his favor without any benefit.
"Get in touch later."
After Jiang Bao finished posting this, he threw the phone to Lin Can.
Lin Can couldn't help but ask, "Didn't you say that you should have less contact with him?"
Jiang Bao: "There is no eternal enemy. If he is willing to help, then I accept it."
Lin Can looked at the chat history of the two people.
"Why don't I understand? His meeting with someone... has something to do with you building a hotel? Helping you get funds."
"No, tell me something. It's not easy for me to do this myself. Those executives are not as convenient as him. Many local governments have requirements, especially in third-tier cities. Real estate groups are stationed. When the government sells a piece of land, there will be many Some of the additional conditions are to provide jobs, and some are to introduce international hotel brands, and there are also unilateral cost requirements for the hotel.”
Among the real estate projects promoted by the Jiang family in the country, one of them is a third-tier tourist city, Jiang City. The local government did not originally include building a hotel in its requirements.
But as long as someone makes suggestions, it's easy to change your mind.
After all, it is a tourist city with little cultural heritage. If a very distinctive hotel is built, it can add a touch of warmth to the city's slightly skinny culture, which is also a political achievement.
After all, the Xie family has been in the country for so many years, and Xie Liaoyuan is a thoughtful person, so this matter is not difficult for him.
Jiang Bao has always been an unscrupulous person. For his own sake, the group can also make plans, and what is in his hands is the real thing.
As long as the government exerts pressure, the board of directors will agree to allocate funds to repair the hotel. Besides, she will definitely not use her own money to supplement it.
Jiang Bao's explanation was so clear that even a layman could understand it. She hesitated and asked, "Will the group agree?"
"Of course, you can save money if you don't repair the hotel, and you can save money if you repair it. Building a high-end hotel can increase the surrounding housing prices. As long as the operation is good, the premium of the surrounding commercial housing is higher than the cost of the hotel. If the hotel is well operated, it can also prepare for later capitalization operations. , but this is a long-term approach that is difficult to take, so we won’t consider it for the time being.”
Jiang Bao didn't talk to anyone about the legal issues involved, such as legal tax avoidance. and illegal money laundering.
"Do you understand?" Jiang Bao looked at the confused person and asked again.
Lin Can came back to his senses and nodded in confusion.
Jiang Bao clasped his hands on his chest. He originally wanted to speak, but after thinking about it, this guy seemed to have never had any trouble. He always made mistakes, so forget it.
At noon the next day, Xie Liaoyuan sent a message saying that it was done, and asked Jiang Bao to have dinner together on the weekend, saying it was a gathering of friends.
Jiang Bao agreed, after all, he knew the domestic situation better.
Of course, Lin Can didn't go alone, she had to follow.
As soon as New Year's Day passed, the final exam was about to begin. The head teacher said that this stage was more important, so it was better to come if you could, so Jiang Bao came.
After all, she is quite free.
Although she was managing the hotel business, Shu Ya had to take care of everything herself, but her subordinates were fighting among themselves, and many of them had nepotism, which she couldn't actually reach.
Jiang Bao has delegated power, and the senior executives she poached have been put to good use, but they are all under her control.
All classes were suspended before the exam, and I had to do test papers every day.
Jiang Bao has given up Chinese. After all, SAT and TOEFL do not test this. To accept that she is not the first, she also spent a long time on psychological construction.
Forget it, let’s not compare with a group of high school students.
Jiang Bao took several sets of test papers on the first day he arrived.
People around her rushed to help her complete the answer and were stunned. The accuracy rate was too high, and she was among the top reservations in the whole grade.
How can I survive when others don't come to school every day and are still so awesome
The eldest lady is so rich, but she actually knows how to save scratch paper! Are all big questions calculated mentally? I can only offer my knees!
"Both have brains, why are they so different?"
"No, no, no, I doubt I have a brain."
Day students are not required to attend evening self-study. After school in the afternoon, Jiang Bao packed up her desk and prepared to go home. Before she could leave the teaching building, it started raining heavily without warning.
Jiang Baozou returned to the classroom to get an umbrella. Alva had given it to her in the morning, saying it might rain. She just went out and saw that the sky was still sunny, so she didn't take it.
The corridor on the first floor was full of people. They all didn't have umbrellas and were waiting for the rain to stop. However, there were a few who rushed directly into the rain curtain.
Jiang Bao walked carefully to avoid getting his shoes and socks wet.
Turning the corner, several boys ran past her.
Jiang Bao looked at the mud spots on his shoes and felt unhappy. Was he running in such a hurry to reincarnate? If your eyes are no longer needed to see the way, you can donate them to those in need.
The more she thought about it, the more unlucky she felt. When she turned around to look, she found several boys surrounding one person, beating each other.
Two fists were no match for four hands, and the boy who was beaten huddled on the ground, gradually losing the ability to fight back.
Jiang Bao doesn't like to be nosy. Her shoes are dirty and she just wants to go home quickly and change them.
But when she almost reached the school gate, she suddenly changed her mind and turned back.
If Lin Can had someone to help her when she was stuck in the quagmire, maybe she wouldn't be in the later stage.
Jiang Bao felt that he was getting softer and softer, always wasting time on meaningless things.
She sighed, stood under the eaves, closed her umbrella, took out her mobile phone and made a call.
Although the call came from an unknown number, Director Xiao still answered it.
Jiang Bao said in a calm voice: "Director Xiao, right? Please come to the second teaching building immediately. There is business you have to deal with here."
Director Xiao: "...?"
Jiang Bao: "Come here now, I'll wait for you here."
When Director Xiao rushed over, those people had not stopped yet.
Jiang Bao pointed out: "They are fighting."
Director Xiao glanced at Jiang Bao and lowered his voice to speak. After all, it was more important to stop the students from fighting, so he rushed into the rain while shouting "What are you doing?"
Normally students would not tell their teachers about their conflicts, otherwise they would cause more troubles. When the director arrived, the people who were beating them stopped.
They were far apart just now, so Jiang Bao couldn't see clearly, but now he recognized a few of the attackers who looked familiar, and they were all Zhou Ziyi's friends in the past.
Really stubborn.
One of the boys in the leader said: "He was the one who came to trouble me. I fought with him, and the others just wanted to separate us."
Jiang Bao: "Lying, I saw you all beating him up together, I am a witness."
Several boys looked at each other angrily. Jiang Bao had a sense of presence some time ago, so they naturally knew each other.
Not to mention retorting now, I didn't even dare to show off my face.
This is no longer the poor little girl she used to be, but the eldest lady of the Jiang family.
Director Xiao: "Is that what she said?"
Several boys lowered their gazes and did not answer, nor did they dare to argue.
Gu Yu looked up at the girl in front of him. He was used to being bullied. Although some people occasionally sympathized with him, no one stood up to help him like this.
Who is she? Even the usually arrogant people don't dare to say anything.
He felt that the other party was so imposing and powerful.
Alva saw that the lady hadn't come out for so long, so he held an umbrella and went to the school to look for her. Because it was raining heavily, the guard let the parent who sent the umbrella go, and he was able to come in smoothly.
Jiang Bao saw Alva and was no longer willing to talk nonsense with these people. The factual evidence was in front of him and it was not difficult to investigate.
She said to Director Xiao: "I'm going home now. If you still don't understand anything, come back to me for proof."
Director Xiao: "..."
The feeling of being lectured by the leader is back again!!!
Jiang Bao glanced sideways at the man covered in dirt. He was as dirty as a beggar, which was a bit pitiful.
Alva came to pick her up holding an umbrella, but the one in Jiang Bao's hand was naturally useless.
She put the umbrella aside and said to the dirty man who couldn't see his face: "This umbrella is for you."
After saying this, she walked under Alva's umbrella and left directly.
Director Xiao called a few troublemakers to the office, but asked Gu Yu, who was covered in mud and water, to go back and clean up first.
After everyone left, Gu Yu picked up the umbrella.
The handle of this umbrella is made of bamboo, the switch is made of silver, and even the fan cloth is not nylon but silk. It looks exquisite and valuable.
Just like the owner of the umbrella, a noble young lady.
And he was like a speck of mud on the sole of the opponent's shoe, but even though he thought so, the palm of his hand holding the handle of the umbrella still became warm.
