Chapter 1622 "Think It Through Before Getting Married" - For Xiaoyu and Manyi

Chapter 1622 "Think It Through Before Getting Married" - For Xiaoyu and Manyi
At that moment, Jiang Chen thought of Qianke Group.

The storyline involving Qianke Group in the drama mainly revolves around the construction industry.

It mainly talked about Qianke's foray into the southern market.

It's been over a year since the story began.

Regardless of whether the story has ended or not, the real estate market is still surging towards its peak, and Qianke Group will inevitably come into contact with them.

"It seems we need to warn Chen Yifan and the others."

Having made up his mind, Jiang Chen stopped paying attention to Cheng Zixin.

Soon, Jiang Chen arrived at the Law School of Yenching University.

"Professor Yang, am I not late?" Jiang Chen found Professor Yang.

"It's not too late, I have something to take care of."

Professor Yang was very happy to see Jiang Chen.

"Professor Yang, this is my research project for this semester." Jiang Chen handed the documents in his hand to Professor Yang.

"You really finished it?" Professor Yang took the document, his tone still somewhat disbelieving.

"Of course." The reason Jiang Chen was able to complete the project so quickly was because he utilized the time in the Second World.

Professor Yang opened the document and began to read it.

After half an hour.

Professor Yang looked at Jiang Chen: "Jiang Chen, you finished this project so quickly? How about I give you another one..."

"Professor Yang."

Before Professor Yang could finish speaking, Jiang Chen interrupted him: "Professor Yang, I am very busy with my work. My company now has tens of thousands of employees, and it is still growing. I have to be responsible for them."

"This..." Professor Yang fell silent.

He understood that, given Jiang Chen's circumstances, he was really not suited for academic pursuits.

"I'll be quite busy with company matters in the next few months, which is why I'm addressing my research topic ahead of schedule. Besides, I've already met with the graduate students," Jiang Chen continued.

However, when it came to Cheng Lingyun and the others, Jiang Chen wondered when he could take his relationship with them a step further.

Just imagining the day when I would have the pleasure of visiting Cheng Lingyun and the others, and they would call me Professor Jiang, would surely feel wonderful.

"OK then!"

Professor Yang didn't say much upon hearing this, but instead asked Jiang Chen to sit down and then discussed the research topic Jiang Chen was working on.

Jiang Chen and Professor Yang are both highly capable individuals, so the issues they discussed were naturally quite profound.

However, this was also something Jiang Chen could handle with ease.

At noon, Jiang Chen ate lunch at the Yenching University cafeteria at Professor Yang's invitation.

Although it was National Day, there were still quite a few students staying at Yenching University. When Jiang Chen arrived at the Yenching University cafeteria, he could see many students.

Jiang Chen's eyes lit up when he saw these young students.

Although not all students at Yenching University are handsome men and beautiful women, it must be said that there are quite a few female students who are good-looking and have good figures.

"Jiang Chen, what are you looking at?" Professor Yang's voice rang out from the side.

"It's nothing," Jiang Chen replied.

"It's nothing. My eyes aren't blind." Professor Yang whispered to Jiang Chen, "If you stay at the university, you might see me every day."

"..." Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen never expected Professor Yang to say that.

A few years ago, he might have had such thoughts, after all, being a professor was much more comfortable than being a CEO, but things are different now. Companies like Xingchen Group and Hengshi Group have already been established, and he would never hand them over to others to manage.

Even his women, while capable of handling things independently, are still lacking in overall leadership.

“Professor Yang, I am not that kind of person,” Jiang Chen said righteously.

"Let's go eat," Professor Yang said to Jiang Chen, changing the subject instead of continuing on the topic.

"Okay." Jiang Chen nodded gently.

After the meal, Jiang Chencai said goodbye to Professor Yang.

However, Jiang Chen did not leave Yenching University, but instead wandered around the university.

"Yanjing University can be considered a popular spot for signing in."

"I wonder if I'll meet any leading ladies during this National Day holiday."

Jiang Chen thought to himself.

Just then, a voice came from the side: "Jiang Chen?"

"Sister Xia?"

Jiang Chen turned his head and saw Liu Yingxia. He asked in surprise, "Sister Xia, what are you doing here?"

"I'm here today to collect my graduation certificate," Liu Yingxia replied.

"A certificate of completion?" Jiang Chen was slightly taken aback.

Immediately, Jiang Chen realized what was happening.

The certificate of completion that Liu Yingxia mentioned should be the certificate of completion for the advanced class of Senior Human Resources Director (HRD) at Yenching University.

It's been a year since Liu Yingxia enrolled in Yenching University's Advanced Human Resources Director (HRD) program.

"Yes, I had something to do a few days ago, so I only came today. I didn't expect to run into you." Liu Yingxia walked over.

"How has your year-long study at Yenching University's Advanced Human Resources Director (HRD) program been? What insights have you gained?" Jiang Chen asked.

"The course was worthwhile..." Liu Yingxia became very excited and talkative when talking about the Yenching University Senior Human Resources Director (HRD) program. She shared her thoughts.

Jiang Chen listened silently.

He understood Liu Yingxia's joy.

I am also happy for Liu Yingxia that she was able to complete her studies in the advanced Human Resources Director (HRD) program at Yenching University.

"Sister Xia, with this year of learning, a promotion and a raise shouldn't be a problem," Jiang Chen said.

“Getting a promotion isn’t easy,” Liu Yingxia said.

"Not urgent."

Jiang Chen chuckled and said, "As long as you have the ability, a promotion and a raise are just a matter of time. I believe in you."

"Jiang Chen, what brings you to Yenching University?" Liu Yingxia asked, changing the subject.

"I'm here today to see Professor Yang from the law school," Jiang Chen said without hiding anything.

“Professor Yang from the Law School?” Liu Yingxia then remembered that Jiang Chen was an honorary professor at the Law School of Yenching University.

"Okay." Jiang Chen nodded. "Sister Xia, I'm planning to leave Peking University. What about you? Do you have time to look around Peking University together?"

“Sure, no problem.” Liu Yingxia nodded without hesitation.

Soon, Jiang Chen and Liu Yingxia left Yenching University.

"Shall we go to the city center?" Jiang Chen asked Liu Yingxia.

"Okay." Liu Yingxia had no objections.

Fifteen minutes later, Jiang Chen led Liu Yingxia to a commercial street.

Today is still National Day.

This little-known commercial street in Yanjing was also packed with people and very lively.

"Sister Xia, what do you want to buy today? It's on me," Jiang Chen said to Liu Yingxia.

"You're treating?" Liu Yingxia was slightly taken aback.

"Today is not only National Day, but I also accomplished something big and want to celebrate." Jiang Chen was speaking from the heart. Whether it was winning over Yin Yike and Qin Yiran last night or submitting the research paper for the Peking University Law School today, it was a big deal.

"You accomplished something big? A big deal?" In Liu Yingxia's view, Jiang Chen was the president of Xingchen Group, so in her opinion, Jiang Chen's big deal must be that the company signed a big deal.

“No, it’s completing an academic project,” Jiang Chen replied.

"Academic projects? Law department projects?" Liu Yingxia asked hesitantly.

"Yes." Jiang Chen nodded.
"Then I won't stand on ceremony." Liu Yingxia understood Jiang Chen's meaning, so she didn't stand on ceremony.

"Let's go then." Jiang Chen led Liu Yingxia forward.

Fifteen minutes later, Jiang Chen and Liu Yingxia entered a jewelry store.

As soon as Jiang Chen entered the room, he saw two women from the jewelry store.

"Ok?"

Jiang Chen glanced at it. The next moment.

The system prompt sounds.

"Sign in."

Jiang Chen silently recited in his heart.

[Congratulations, host! You have successfully checked in and received one hundred mid-grade spirit stones.]

[Congratulations, host! You have successfully checked in and received ten stacks of intermediate-to-high-grade talisman paper.]

"One hundred mid-grade spirit stones?"

"This is the eighteenth time I've checked in and received one hundred mid-grade spirit stones."

"After refining a low-grade spirit stone, strength increases by 10 points, constitution increases by 15 points, and agility increases by 5 points. After refining a mid-grade spirit stone, strength increases by 130 points, constitution increases by 180 points, and agility increases by 60 points."

"This is a good reward."

"Ten stacks of intermediate to high-grade talisman paper?"

"This is talisman paper that can be used to draw intermediate and advanced talismans."

"Besides the fifty stacks of intermediate and high-level talisman papers that I received as a special reward for signing in, this is what I got on my tenth sign-in."

"Spirit Concealment Talisman... These are all mid-to-high-level talismans."

"Beginner-level talismans correspond to first-rate martial artists, intermediate-level talismans correspond to innate martial artists, advanced-level talismans correspond to grandmaster martial artists, intermediate-level talismans correspond to great grandmasters, and intermediate-level talismans correspond to Martial Kings."

"Intermediate and high-level talismans correspond to the Martial Emperor realm."

At that moment, Jiang Chen looked at the female lead who had signed in.

Yu Xiaoyu is a character in the TV series "Think It Through Before Getting Married".

In the drama, she is a pragmatic and thrifty young woman who ventures alone to Beijing. She has clear life goals. After marriage, she discovers that her "values" are vastly different from Long Xia's, and their conflicts increase day by day, bringing their marriage to the brink of collapse. In the end, she realizes that marriage requires patience and perseverance.

Satisfied, a character in "Think It Through Before Getting Married".

In the drama, she's a girl from Yanjing (Beijing), and her non-blood-related sister to Long Xia. They grew up together and have a deep bond. She embodies the fantasies of many young men struggling in Beijing who dream of marrying a wife: persistent in love, kind-hearted, wealthy, optimistic, and pursuing a struggling young man from Beijing. She's also very individualistic, bold, decisive, and independent, with consistent views on relationships and a passionate outlook on life—a rare quality for a wealthy woman.

"Think it through before you get married?"

"The plot of this drama seems to start in 15."

At the beginning of the story, Yu Xiaoyu and Long Xia become roommates after experiencing emotional betrayal. Under pressure from their parents to get married, they register their marriage without sufficient time to adjust to each other. Their differing values quickly surface after marriage: Yu Xiaoyu demands strict budgeting and management of household expenses, while Long Xia is accustomed to going to great lengths for his friends, leading to their first marital crisis.

During a critical period of the company's financial audit, her colleague Annie removed a USB drive, ruining her work. Despite being publicly humiliated, she persisted in investigating the accounts and ultimately gained the approval of her superior, General Manager Liu. This experience not only demonstrates her professional competence but also reflects the survival pressure faced by women working in Beijing.

After discovering that Long Xia had secretly lent money to a friend and taken suggestive wedding photos, Yu Xiaoyu submitted her resignation and prepared to leave Yanjing. During the process of being chased back by Long Xia at the airport, they resolved the misunderstanding through in-depth communication. At this point, the character had transformed from an initial stubborn "black and white" view to a mature attitude of being willing to give the marriage a second chance.

In the finale, after six months of emotional adjustment, Yu Xiaoyu, now pregnant, reconciles with Long Xia.

"Yu Xiaoyu is a white-collar worker from Qingdao who works in the finance department of a top 100 real estate company. She has outstanding professional qualities and keen financial analysis skills. As a typical representative of modern urban women, she insists on realizing her life value through career struggle. In the drama, she once saved the company nearly 10 million yuan by optimizing financial statements."

"Yu Xiaoyu is pragmatic and rational, advocates a frugal lifestyle and opposes extravagance. In the drama, she insists on reducing unnecessary expenses during the wedding preparation stage and even personally designs a traditional Chinese wedding to control the budget."

"Yu Xiaoyu is also a shrewd person who integrates professional financial skills into her daily life. She once accurately analyzed the value of real estate to help a friend obtain funds for purchasing a house. In the conflict between her consumption concepts and Long Xia's, she repeatedly emphasized that money should be spent wisely."

"Yu Xiaoyu is stubborn and persistent. When faced with workplace framing, she insists on finding out the truth about the accounts. After discovering that Long Xia has concealed the fact that he lent money to his friends, she chooses to have a cold war and leave home. She is described by the characters in the drama as having a stubborn personality that cannot be pulled back by nine oxen."

"satisfy……"

In the drama, Manyi and Long Xia are siblings without blood ties, having grown up together and sharing a deep bond. She embodies the fantasies of many young men struggling in Beijing who dream of marrying a wife: devoted to love, kind-hearted, wealthy, and optimistic. She is also very individualistic, bold, passionate, and independent, with consistent views on relationships and a life full of enthusiasm—a rare quality for a wealthy woman.

Manyi relentlessly pursued the handsome but poor Liu Tianyu, sparing no expense to win him over, showering him with gifts like appliances and money. However, Liu Tianyu initially disliked her and avoided her at all costs. But Manyi's persistence, kindness, wealth, optimistic nature, and willingness to take responsibility led to their eventual union.

It's said that pursuing a woman is like climbing a mountain for a man, but pursuing a man is like piercing a thin veil for a woman. However, Manyi's pursuit of Liu Tianyu was far from simple, causing quite a stir. Liu Tianyu was an honest and hardworking, down-to-earth tech-savvy guy from Beijing. After Manyi's repeated and forceful advances, Liu Tianyu finally gave in. However, Liu Tianyu continued to live in a dormitory after marriage, which made Manyi very uncomfortable, so she wanted to move. The housing issue caused a conflict between Manyi and Liu Tianyu, as Liu Tianyu was very obedient to his family, which Manyi felt made him seem indecisive. Despite the conflicts and the fact that they stayed at his brother Long Xia's house for a while, they did not divorce.

"Two years have passed since the story began..."

"I don't know if it's over yet."

"However, even if it's not over yet, it should be over soon."

Jiang Chen sized up Yu Xiaoyu and Manyi.

Yu Xiaoyu, Wu Shiyi, Su Mang, and others were all played by the same actor in their previous lives.

The actors who played Manyi and Hu Shanxiang in the Third World, and Jiang Yuanxing in the First World, were the same person in their previous lives.

"Jiang Chen, do you want to buy jewelry?" Liu Yingxia asked.

"Come and take a look. If anything catches your eye, take a look." Jiang Chen has many girlfriends and potential girlfriends, so when he sees jewelry, he'll buy it if he thinks it looks good. After all, when he gives jewelry, he's not looking at its value, but at his sentiment.

Jiang Chen felt that every gift he gave contained his heartfelt sentiments.

"Sister Xia, please help me choose," Jiang Chen said.

"Buying it for your girlfriend?" Liu Yingxia asked.

"Mm." Jiang Chen nodded.

Whether she's his girlfriend or his potential girlfriend, she's still his girlfriend to Jiang Chen.

"Okay, I'll go pick one out for you." Liu Yingxia had no objections upon hearing this.

However, half an hour later, Liu Yingxia's expression became somewhat strange.

"Sister Xia, let's talk outside later," Jiang Chen whispered in Liu Yingxia's ear.

"Okay." Liu Yingxia nodded.

Jiang Chen paid with his bank card.

Two hundred and thirty bracelets and two hundred and twenty necklaces—that's the jewelry Jiang Chen bought.

Of course, these bracelets and necklaces are not available from Xiangxing Jewelry.

If Xiangxing Jewelry has it, Jiang Chen will naturally take it from Xiangxing Jewelry.

Soon, Jiang Chen and Liu Yingxia walked out of the jewelry store.

Feeling Liu Yingxia's gaze, Jiang Chen smiled and said, "Sister Xia, I told you before that I have quite a few girlfriends, so..."

"You really are... I thought you were joking before," Liu Yingxia said after a moment's hesitation.

"Sister Xia, you're not cursing me in your heart, are you?" Jiang Chen asked.

"What do you think?" Liu Yingxia asked in return.

"I'm a man, so this is perfectly normal," Jiang Chen said nonchalantly.

"Aren't you worried?" Liu Yingxia asked.

"What are you worried about? I've told them everything," Jiang Chen said.

"frank?"

“Yes, I’d like them to live together. What do you think?” Jiang Chen asked.

"Live together?" Liu Yingxia was also a little confused by Jiang Chen's train of thought.

"As long as our relationship is good, nothing else matters," Jiang Chen explained.

“Soliciting excuses,” Liu Yingxia said without hesitation.

"As long as you're happy." Jiang Chen smiled and said, "Sister Xia, with my current status, I lack nothing. All I'm pursuing is happiness. I won't force anyone. Everyone is doing this willingly now, and my parents know that too."

"You're amazing." Liu Yingxia was speechless.

“When you reach my level, you might think the same way we do,” Jiang Chen said.

Liu Yingxia rolled her eyes.

How could she possibly share the same thoughts as Jiang Chen?

“Let’s go, let’s continue shopping,” Jiang Chen said.

"Continue?" Liu Yingxia blinked.

“Yes. We finally have the chance to go shopping, so naturally we should browse around and buy more,” Jiang Chen said matter-of-factly.

"Then let's go." Liu Yingxia did not refuse upon hearing this.

Jiang Chen and Liu Yingxia then spent two hours shopping before they finished.

"Jiang Chen, it's getting late, I need to go home," Liu Yingxia said after checking the time.

"Would you like to have a meal together?" Jiang Chen asked.

"No, I have something to do when I get back today," Liu Yingxia politely declined.
