During the meal, the old couple and Tian Shanshan ate together and were very close to each other. But Zhang Jinming just sat on the cold bench, he felt that, how did he become a child that was being nurtured?
"Dad, mom, you really think of her as your own daughter. You don't even care if your own son is dead or alive."
Zhang Dashan rolled his eyes at him, and said snappily, "There really aren't any benefits in raising you, what's the point of having a daughter-in-law like Shan Shan?"
Maybe when Zhang Dashan said it out loud, he had already subconsciously assumed that Tian Shanshan was his daughter-in-law.
Once he said that, Zhang Jinming's mouth full of food almost sprayed out. He glared fiercely at Zhang Dashan, "Dad, what nonsense are you spouting?"
Zhan Yuee slapped him hard, "You old bastard, you can't even talk after eating, can you?"
Zhang Dashan was extremely embarrassed, and quickly apologized to Tian Shanshan. Shan Shan, Uncle has no other intentions. You must not take it seriously. Such an outstanding girl like you, even my disappointing son isn't worthy of you. "
Tian Shanshan was obviously feeling a little unnatural as well. However, she had grown up in an open and bad environment abroad after all. Therefore, she did not have much of her shy nature as a citizen. Very soon, she revealed a faint smile, "Uncle, it's actually me who isn't worthy of Jin Ming." I already have someone I like. "
"What?" The old couple spoke in unison as they looked towards Zhang Jinming.
Zhang Jinming was also confused, he glared at Tian Shanshan, and seemingly asked her, "What kind of trick is this?!" Tian Shanshan laughed slyly, and ignored him.
Zhang Dashan anxiously asked Zhang Jinming, "Jin Ming, what exactly happened? You've already had a girlfriend, why didn't you tell us? "
Zhang Jinming immediately denied.
Tian Shanshan said unhurriedly, "Director Zhang, as things are now, you should stop hiding things. Your aunt and uncle will find out about the matter between you and Shen Manager sooner or later. "
"Shen Manager, you're talking about that woman called Shen Lan." Zhan Yuee thought for a moment, then suddenly said, "Eh, I think I heard that she is married."
Tian Shanshan laughed and said, "Aunt, I'm already divorced."
"Bastard, why aren't you in a hurry to get a girlfriend? So, you're actually dating a divorced woman. Zhang Jinming, are you going to anger me to death? " Zhang Dashan slammed the table angrily as he shouted angrily.
Damn, this bitch. He actually exposed Shen Lan. Anger rose up in Zhang Jinming's heart. He fiercely glared at Tian Shanshan, "Tian Shanshan, what nonsense are you spouting for my parents?"
Zhang Dashan shouted angrily, "Don't scold Shan Shan, Zhang Jinming, you better explain clearly to me today, are you related to that divorced woman at all?"
"No, absolutely not." Zhang Jinming immediately denied.
Zhan Yuee sighed repeatedly, "Child, you can't find a divorced woman. I'm not missing an arm or a leg. I can't marry a wife, so how can I be so wronged? "Besides, where are we supposed to put our old faces in the village?"
Zhang Jinming instantly felt a huge pressure. He hurriedly denied that it had nothing to do with Shen Lan at all. It was just an ordinary colleague.
When the old couple saw the sincerity in his words, they solemnly vowed and no longer bothered with him.
However, during the meal that followed, Zhang Jinming was unable to relax. He clearly understood that if Shen Lan really agreed to marry him, would he be able to withstand the pressure from his parents to be together with her? Suddenly, he understood why Shen Lan wasn't willing to be with him. Perhaps, he had been more mature in his consideration of the matter and was aware of this fact long ago.
After the four finished eating, Tian Shanshan helped Zhan Yuee clean the tableware.
Afterward, the four of them sat on the sofa and watched TV together.
Zhang Jinming had always wanted to find an opportunity to have Tian Shanshan move aside and settle the score with her, but this woman was extremely vigilant. At this moment, she had become one with his parents.
Forget it. I'll find a chance to deal with this woman tomorrow when I get to work.
At this time, there was a knock at the door.
Zhang Dashan asked suspiciously, "Jin Ming, it's already so late, who's looking for you?"
Tian Shanshan got up and said, "I'll go take a look."
"It's better if I go. You sit down." Zhang Jinming looked at her snappily.
Zhang Jinming walked to the door, opened it, and saw the person before him, and was immediately stunned.
For a few seconds he stared at her.
The person who came was none other than Xu Yajing.
Maybe it was because she had recovered her original look, Xu Yajing dressed very delicately, with a beret on, her enchanting face was white and clean, as if she was clotting fat. Those facial features were carefully modified to have a unique charm. Xu Yajing was wearing a famous brand as well as a pair of Cartier earrings on his ears. The casual attire he wore was also a brand that Zhang Jinming couldn't even match, but he noticed the Gu Qi handbag in Xu Yajing's hands. Perhaps, this is what Shen Lan mentioned.
Xu Yajing gave off a noble aura of a princess, which was a stark contrast to the ordinary white-collar lady from before.
Xu Yajing looked at Zhang Jinming with his beautiful eyes, and gently said, "Jin Ming, why are you looking at me like that, and why aren't you saying anything?"
Zhang Jinming regained his senses, looked at her, and said coldly: "Xu Yajing, what more do you want me to say?"
Xu Yajing frowned slightly, her bright red lips forced out a faint smile, "Jin Ming, I know you misunderstood me a lot. "How about this, can we go out and talk?"
"Okay, I'd like to see what you can tell me." Zhang Jinming said with an ice-cold tone.
"Is it Ya Jing? Why isn't she coming in?" Zhan Yuee's voice came from inside.
"Ah, Auntie, Jin Ming and I have some business to attend to. We'll talk about it when we get back." Xu Yajing greeted Zhan Yuee.
Zhang Jinming turned his head and said this to his parents. Then, he immediately left the place with Xu Yajing.
When the two of them went downstairs, Zhang Jinming shockingly found a luxurious sportscar parked at the entrance. He could tell from the symbol that this was Aston Martin. F * ck, the price of a car is at least several tens of millions, which is equivalent to the salary of several lifetimes. Ai, this rich person was indeed different.
"Ya Jing, you are really secretive." Zhang Jinming chuckled, his tone clearly carrying a few traces of ridicule.
"Get in." Xu Yajing said as she opened the car door and went in.
Sitting in the front seat, Zhang Jinming felt Xu Yajing's body releasing a faint fragrance, and her heart was moved. He looked back at the woman. Xu Yajing looked to be even more charming than before, but this charm was not to be detested, it would only cause one's heart to surge.
Xu Yajing drove until she reached the entrance of an apartment.
After Zhang Jinming got off the car, he took a look and his heart couldn't help but be deeply convinced. F * ck, this so-called luxurious mansion wasn't anything special.
Zhang Jinming followed Xu Yajing inside. Along the way, the two of them did not say anything excessive.
Xu Yajing brought Zhang Jinming to a resplendent room that was decorated, and stopped in front of a table near a French window.
The two of them sat down. At this moment, there were two cups of steaming hot coffee on the table.
Xu Yajing crossed her legs, and gently tidied up his skirt, as if to prevent it from disappearing completely. The light of the lantern shone brightly on her long, snow-white legs.
Zhang Jinming looked at it for a bit, then quickly turned his face, not daring to look any further. He was very worried that he did not have enough self-control.
Xu Yajing skillfully held the cup of coffee and took a sip. After that, she placed it on the table, looked at Zhang Jinming and said, "If there's anything you want to ask, just ask."
Zhang Jinming actually had a lot of questions he wanted to ask Xu Yajing, but the moment the words came to his mouth, it was unknown as to what he wanted to ask. After holding it in for a long time, he finally said, "You've put in a lot of effort. What is your purpose for coming to our company for such a long time?"
"Good question." "Xu Yajing laughed lightly as she stared intently at Zhang Jinming. As her eyes flashed, Zhang Jinming felt a strong emotion. "Jin Ming, at this point, do you still not understand my painstaking efforts?"
"What hard work?" Zhang Jinming asked suspiciously.
Xu Yajing stretched out a small pure white hand, and gently held Zhang Jinming's hand, as she said softly, "Jin Ming, I came to the Lihua Company to examine you. "Because, I want to find a manager for our company who is well-equipped in every way."
Zhang Jinming didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Xu Yajing, who would believe such words of yours?"
Xu Yajing sighed, and said helplessly, "I know you won't believe me, but you definitely think I'm very stupid. But when I saw you publish an article about business management two years ago, I was impressed by your ability. You may have forgotten that when I was in a taxi that day, I happened to be in the same car as you. I told you that there was an emergency at home, and then I borrowed a hundred dollars from you, saying that I would definitely return it to you in the future. "
Zhang Jinming was a little surprised. "What, that's you, I thought it was a man." Zhang Jinming suddenly remembered that a few years ago, such a thing had indeed happened. However, at that time Xu Yajing was wearing a soft hat and glasses, and even used a mask to cover his face, he really did not notice anything.
"What kind of eyes do you have? I'm truly convinced of your strength." Xu Yajing didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Zhang Jinming laughed and said, "Yating, you wanted to tell me that you were actually lying to me back then right? Actually, I already knew. However, I'm used to bad luck. I was cheated by my classmates at school, my family was cheated by my girlfriend Zhao Feifei, and even cheated by my superior when I went to work. So I don't care if you're a liar. "
Xu Yajing said, "Jin Ming, no matter what, I had already recognized you at that time. I made up my mind that I would observe you well and make you the manager of our company in the future. I believe in your ability to bring good news to our company. "
Zhang Jinming pulled out the hand she was holding, and said coldly, "Xu Yajing, you're too sentimental. You've been lying to me for so long just to examine me. But you asked my mom how come you think I'm going to go to your company? "
"Jin Ming, our company can give you a better level of development. You saw my father that day, and I believe you saw it too. My dad likes you a lot, and he wants you to come to our company. " Xu Yajing was excited, his hands tightly holding onto Zhang Jinming.
