Chapter 57 -57: Be His Good Helpmate
Xiao Meier has always been a beauty, just without the means and time to dress up before.
Today, she wore a dress costing over two thousand, a watch worth hundreds of thousands, and sat in the back of a Da Lao worth millions.
No one would imagine such a glamorous and wealthy image belonged to the owner of the Willow Tree Fennel Noodle House.
She even specifically chose a bright red lipstick, vivid yet dignified, perfectly outlining her sexy lips.
Her skin was like cream, delicate and luminously fair, attracting more than a few glances from Chen Cheng beside her.
But the unfortunate part was that her relatives had not yet left, and during her protected period, it became Chen Cheng’s silent period.
“Xiao Cheng, should we buy something for Mr.
Jin?” Xiao Meier reminded him, “It’s our first visit, it’s not good to go empty-handed.”
After hearing this, Chen Cheng smiled and naturally placed his hand on Xiao Meier’s leg, feeling her muscles tense slightly.
“Xiao Er, are you a bit nervous?”
“Yes…
a bit.”
He patted her, “I think you are very nervous, right?”
“Huh?”
“It’s only quarter past six in the morning, where can we go buy something?” Chen Cheng joked.
Xiao Meier glared at Chen Cheng, “You’ve been there a second time, I…”
Chen Cheng embraced her, “It’s fine, just being there is enough.”
Xiao Hai quickly drove them to the front of the club.
As soon as the car stopped, a well-trained waiter came forward to open the door for them, respectfully calling out, “Mr.
Chen, Miss Xiao.”
Chen Cheng nodded in response, “Morning.”
As for Xiao Meier, this was her first time experiencing such a scene, she was already a bit nervous, and now even more so.
She clung tightly to Chen Cheng’s arm, nearly leaning half of her body against his, and walked with wooden steps inside.
Upon entering, Xiao Meier was dazzled by the decorations inside.
“Xiao Cheng, is this place all Mr.
Jin’s?” she asked quietly.
Chen Cheng replied, “Yes.”
“This is too incredible, it’s just like the Forbidden City.” Xiao Meier exclaimed lightly, her eyebrows knitted slightly as she searched for the right words to express her feelings.
“He doesn’t even have a dragon chair though, does he?” Chen Cheng asked with a laugh.
“I mean, this kind of feeling!” Xiao Meier wrinkled her nose, “Don’t tease me!”
Chen Cheng gently patted her hand, “Alright, don’t be nervous.”
“Mr.
Chen, Miss Xiao.”
At that moment, a girl in a cheongsam came over.
It was different from when Chen Cheng had come last time; in the morning there was no jasmine-scented towel to relieve fatigue, but her hands were crossed over her abdomen, her smile confident and warm.
“Mr.
Jin is already waiting for the two of you in the back courtyard,” she gestured with a tilt of her body, “This way please.”
“Thank you.”
Xiao Meier, observing the dignified demeanor and respectful service attitude, remarked to Xiao Cheng, “This place is even more upscale than the place you took me to the day before yesterday!”
“That’s why Mr.
Jin wanted you to feel it last night!” Chen Cheng took Xiao Meier by the hand, “I’m here, nothing to worry about.”
Led by the attendant through a corridor and out the back door, they arrived in the club’s backyard.
The backyard was spacious and open, roughly five hundred square meters in size.
The Silver Edged Jade was in full bloom, with two or three gardeners attending to the branches.
“Mr.
Jin, Mr.
Chen and Miss Xiao have arrived,” the attendant announced.
Jin Baogen put down today’s morning newspaper, removed his reading glasses, with a twinkle of amusement in his eyes, “Have they arrived?”
“Good morning, Mr.
Jin.”
“Mr.
Jin, good morning.”
He gestured for the two to sit down, picked up the purple clay teapot from the tea tray, and poured a cup for each, “Getting up so early, not used to it, are you?”
“I’m alright, it’s about the same time I used to go to work,” Chen Cheng leaned back against the rattan chair, joining the conversation.
Xiao Meier sat up straight, “When I opened the store, I got up earlier than today.”
Jin Baogen spread his hands, indicating they should make themselves comfortable, “Look at my memory, I actually forgot about this!
It must have been because of the drinks last night!”
Chen Cheng smiled as he lifted the teacup, and before he could sip, he was greeted by a fragrant milky aroma, “Jin Xuan tea, eh?”
“Mr.
Chen has a really sharp nose!”
Xiao Meier also cautiously picked up her cup and took a delicate sip, the crisp and sweet aftertaste of the tea surprising her.
“Really delicious.”
Jin Baogen looked at the watch on Xiao Meier’s wrist, a smile curling at his lips, “Xiao Er, the watch on your wrist is indeed beautiful, but why did Mr.
Chen only give you one?
Doesn’t your right hand feel empty?”
Xiao Meier subconsciously covered her right wrist, Chen Cheng explained, “It was a spur-of-the-moment decision yesterday, I haven’t thought about what to put on the right hand yet.”
Jin Baogen beckoned someone standing not far away, whispered a few words, and the person quickly walked away.
He continued, “I have high hopes for Xiao Er.
Grounded, virtuous, and knows the bigger picture.”
A smile appeared on Xiao Meier’s face, her gaze unconsciously turning towards Chen Cheng.
“Now that Mr.
Chen is starting a business with me, and he’s left Wanbao Hall to you, you need to be a good partner to him.”
At his words, Xiao Meier also showed a face full of happiness and satisfaction.
She hurriedly nodded, “Mr.
Jin, don’t worry.
I definitely will!”
“Eh, with your words, I feel reassured as well,” Jin Baogen smiled contentedly, “Come, drink some tea, this is this year’s first picking of Jin Xuan.”
The three chatted idly for a while.
“Mr.
Jin.” The person who had left earlier returned, holding a red velvet brocade box.
Jin Baogen took it with one hand, handing it to Chen Cheng, “Open it.”
Chen Cheng opened the box, his heart trembled at the sight inside.
It was a completely green Jade Bracelet, its crystal bright luster shining even under natural light, so beautiful it was breathtaking.
“Put it on Xiao Er,” Jin Baogen smiled with squinted eyes.
Chen Cheng took out the bracelet, and Xiao Meier saw it and quickly waved her hands to refuse, “Mr.
Jin, this is too valuable.
I can’t…”
“The most valuable objects need to be worn by the right people to reflect their value.”
Jin Baogen gave Chen Cheng a meaningful look.
Chen Cheng cleared his throat, the smooth and cool touch of the bracelet was familiar, he knew the value of this bracelet was at least ten times that of the Blue Balloon.
“Sister Er,” he held it firmly, “Mr.
Jin has already said, don’t refuse.”
“Xiao Cheng…” Xiao Meier’s head shook like a rattle.
Jin Baogen, “Xiao Er, I broke my routine of bird-walking today just to wait for you.
If you don’t accept it, you’ll really hurt this old man’s heart!”
Xiao Meier looked at those deep, kind eyes and finally extended her hand.
“That’s right,” Jin Baogen nodded contentedly, “This suits you.”
Chen Cheng saw the ring of vibrant green on her fair skin, Xiao Meier looked even more ethereally beautiful than when she arrived.
“Mr.
Jin, thank you,” Xiao Meier stood up to express her thanks.
“Sit, sit,” Jin Baogen gestured with his hand, “We are all family, no need to be so formal.”
Chen Cheng refilled Mr.
Jin’s tea, “Mr.
Jin, you’ve gone to great expense again.”
“A small trinket, just wear it and enjoy,” Jin Baogen smiled casually, “Come, let’s have breakfast.”
