To marry into the family in place of his brother? Impossible!

Sister Qian felt like she had come more than usual today, but it was too late for her to leave now.

Jiang Jinhuan breathed a sigh of relief as he watched Song Qingci and Sister Qian walk into the mall side by side.

An assistant should act like an assistant and never get carried away just because the boss values ​​you a little.

Furthermore, he genuinely didn't want to have any relationship with Song Qingci outside of work.

He didn't know why Song Qingci would suddenly ask him to go shopping.

Logically speaking, this doesn't fit Song Qingci's proud personality.

Such a person is always the object of others' flattery, so why would anyone show him kindness?

But what was her reason for doing this?

Jiang Jinhuan frowned in thought.

He didn't think that someone like him could be noticed by Song Qingci.

So, did she call me out this time to give me a warning?

Jiang Jinhuan followed behind Song Qingci and Sister Qian with his own thoughts on his mind.

Song Qingci, who was walking in front, was paying attention to Jiang Jinhuan behind her.

She noticed that Jiang Jinhuan stayed about three meters away from them, neither getting closer nor further away.

However, at this distance, unless you shout loudly, he won't hear you if you speak softly.

It's even a little difficult for me to talk to him.

Song Qingci gritted her teeth and glared angrily at Jiang Jinhuan.

Jiang Jinhuan naturally noticed the other person's gaze and frowned slightly.

Is he dissatisfied with himself?

Sure enough, she must have had ulterior motives for letting me come along this time.

Along the way, Song Qingci and Sister Qian chatted and laughed.

Jiang Jinhuan was like a tool; he wouldn't say a word unless Song Qingci asked him.

Sister Qian had noticed long ago that her boss's attention didn't seem to be on the street today.

Instead, it was on Jiang Jinhuan behind him.

Along the way, their CEO had glanced at that guy countless times.

But Jiang Jin Huan doesn't seem to realize this at all.

They even deliberately kept their distance.

What is the relationship between these two people?

Then they came to a shoe store.

Song Qingci went inside and tried on a pair of shoes. After putting them on, she didn't ask Sister Qian next to her, but instead looked at Jiang Jinhuan and asked, "What do you think of these shoes?"

Jiang Jinhuan, standing at the shop entrance, also heard Song Qingci's question.

He looked at Song Qingci's feet.

Song Qingci's cheeks were flushed; this was the first time she had allowed a man to look at her feet so openly.

She felt a tingling sensation spreading from her feet throughout her body.

She would have groaned if she hadn't bitten her lip in time.

Jiang Jinhuan, in his straightforward manner, said, "They look great! President, your feet are so white, you look good in any shoes!"

Sister Qian's eyes widened suddenly. Is this guy flirting with the CEO?

She looked at Song Qingci, afraid that Song Qingci would be angry.

However, apart from a deeper blush on Song Qingci's face, there was no sign of anger.

She simply asked the salesperson to pack up and buy the shoes.

The two women walked out of the shoe store, and Jiang Jinhuan continued to follow them from a distance.

Song Qingci glared angrily at Jiang Jinhuan.

Sister Qian was speechless; she seemed to have already understood something.

But if they keep walking like this, they probably won't be able to exchange more than a few words!

Sister Qian's eyes lit up, and she said, "President, since we're out together, how about we see a movie?"

Song Qingci's interest was quite high at first, but now it seems that he is losing interest.

"I don't care, I just came out to relax today!" Song Qingci replied somewhat reluctantly.

But Sister Qian knew that her boss was very willing.

Sister Qian smiled and said, "Okay, I'll go buy the tickets!"

Sister Qian gave Jiang Jinhuan a meaningful look, then got up and left to buy tickets.

Only Jiang Jinhuan and Song Qingci remained.

Jiang Jinhuan stood behind Song Qingci like a bodyguard, without saying a word.

The two were still quite far apart, and although people walked by from time to time, the atmosphere between them was uncomfortably quiet.

"Don't you have anything to say to me?" Song Qingci suddenly asked.

Jiang Jinhuan frowned, his eyes filled with doubt: "What?"

Song Qingci turned to look at Jiang Jinhuan: "Don't you know what I'm talking about?"

Jiang Jinhuan thought for a moment and said, "President, you mean the arranged marriage, right? You want me to explain to the old man about canceling the marriage, right?"

This sudden invitation to go shopping felt eerie.

Why would a CEO like her let herself go shopping with him?

He didn't think he held a particularly important place in Song Qingci's heart.

It seems that only a marriage alliance can get the other party to compromise.

Thinking of this, Jiang Jinhuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Things I didn't understand before, I seem to understand now, like her promoting me to president's assistant.

He was initially puzzled as to why she would promote him to assistant.

Looking back now, I realize that the other party just wanted to break off the engagement, and this was just compensation for me.

At first, he really thought that Song Qingci had taken a liking to him.

Since that's not the case, then everything is negotiable.

"President, don't worry about that. I can visit the old man anytime it's convenient to explain the situation. I guarantee he won't be angry with you!"

The marriage proposal was put forward by Old Master Song.

If Old Master Song doesn't insist, this marriage will fall through.

After Jiang Jinhuan finished speaking, the atmosphere seemed to become even more oppressive.

He seemed to feel a slight chill emanating from Song Qingci.

Jiang Jinhuan looked at Song Qingci with some confusion.

At this moment, Song Qingci's expression became even colder, her face terrifyingly indifferent.

She looked at Jiang Jinhuan, her eyes changing from shyness a while ago to icy coldness now.

"Heh, Jiang Jinhuan, what do you consider this marriage alliance to be?"

Jiang Jin Huan said, "One mistake, a mistake that shouldn't have happened. I apologize to you on behalf of my parents. This matter of taking advantage of someone's kindness ends here!"

After Jiang Jinhuan finished speaking, he seemed to have let go of a burden in his heart, and his whole body became much more relaxed.

He looked up and met Song Qingci's gaze.

The look in her eyes seemed to contain anger, as well as some other emotions.

Jiang Jinhuan couldn't tell what emotions were being expressed in the other person's eyes.

He also didn't want to know.

Suddenly, Song Qingci spoke in a cold tone: "So, this is your true thought?"

Jiang Jin Huan said, "Of course, I have never thought of forcing someone to marry out of gratitude; that would be immoral."

I believe that for two people to enter into marriage, at the very least, they should be mutually in love.

If not, even if they get married, they won't be able to make it work and will divorce sooner or later. What's the point of such a marriage that's only in name?

Song Qingci lowered her eyes: "So, you don't like me?"

Jiang Jinhuan was stunned.

Song Qingci sneered: "What? Is it hard to answer?"
