Celebrity Girl Is My Wife

Jiang Zhe met up with Yu Xiang again the next evening.

They went out for dinner before catching a movie together.

After the movie, Yu Xiang told Jiang Zhe she had a bottle of fine wine at home, so she ended up bringing him back

to a hotel room she rented long-term.

True enough, it was a bottle of fine wine. Although Jiang Zhe had a low tolerance for alcohol, he could tell how good

the wine was.

“Is this where you stay permanently?” Jiang Zhe asked.

“Yes. I don't have a house in Flower City. If I don't stay here, are you going to take me in?” Yu Xiang laughed.

“If you don't mind staying with me, I'll think about it.” Jiang Zhe smiled.

“Take me in, then. What's there to think about?” Yu Xiang said flirtatiously.

Jiang Zhe felt his heart skip a beat. He quickly took a deep breath to calm himself down.

Everyone knew how easily men would fall for a woman's beauty. In Jiang Zhe's case, the temptation was strong

because not only was the woman before him beautiful, but she was also once his crush.

It's always tough to give up on love from the past.

However, Jiang Zhe stood strong and didn't falter.

“Yu Xiang, when are you going back to Archulea?” he asked with a smile.

“What's the matter? Are you chasing me away? Just a few seconds ago, you said you would consider taking me in,

no? How could you change your mind so quickly? Are you that unreliable?” Yu Xiang grumbled coyly.

“I wouldn't dare to chase you away. Besides, I don't have the right to do so.”

“Keep me, then, and I won't leave,” Yu Xiang continued flirting in response.

“Okay, then. Don't go, Yu Xiang. Stay here.” Jiang Zhe realized he sort of meant it from the bottom of his heart

when he said that.

Although he was suspecting Yu Xiang, he was still hoping she could stay because he enjoyed eating, watching a

movie, and hanging out with her. This may be wrong, but I truly enjoy her company.

“Okay, then. I'll stay. Are you going to provide for me and take care of me?” Yu Xiang laughed.

Jiang Zhe didn't dare to make such promises because he was a man of his word.

“Just call me Xiang Xiang from now on. It sounds more intimate. If you keep calling me by my name, you'll make

me feel old,” Yu Xiang added.

Jiang Zhe merely smiled and replied, “You're not old. You're still as young and as beautiful as always.”

He meant every word he said.

“Oh, right! I have a present for you.” Yu Xiang picked up her purse and whipped out a box.

“Here you go. Open it.” Yu Xiang gave the box to Jiang Zhe.

Jiang Zhe took the box and opened it to find a smartwatch inside.

Yu Xiang leaned toward Jiang Zhe and took off his Rolex on his wrist.

“I know you're a successful man, and you're wearing your Rolex as a sign of status. But I want you to be healthy, so

a smartwatch suits you better. Not only can it show you health-related indicators on your body, but it can also give

early warnings so that you'll pay attention to your health. So... wear this and I'm taking your Rolex.”

With that, she put on the smartwatch for Jiang Zhe without asking for his permission.

After that, she kept Jiang Zhe's Rolex in her purse and said, “I'll keep your Rolex safe. One day, if you want it back,

I'll pass it back to you. In the meantime, wear the one I just gave you.”

Jiang Zhe checked the watch out and liked it. This looks nice. I like the design and the color.

“Okay. I'll wear it.” Jiang Zhe accepted the watch.

Yu Xiang beamed upon seeing that.

They chatted for a while more before Jiang Zhe stood up and excused himself.

Yu Xiang didn't ask him to stay either. It seemed as though neither of them wanted to spend the night with the

other.

Jiang Zhe exited the hotel and got into a black Mercedes Benz.

The driver, who was in a black suit, turned toward Jiang Zhe to see Jiang Zhe pointing at the smartwatch he was

wearing.

The driver nodded in understanding. “You had quite a few glasses, didn't you, Assistant Jiang? You seem to be in a

good mood.”

“Yes. I had a great time catching up with an old friend,” Jiang Zhe responded.

“Is she your girlfriend or an ex-girlfriend?”

“Neither of that.” Jiang Zhe laughed.

“By the way, Mr. Chen told me to tell you that there'll be a meeting with the project team tomorrow morning,

Assistant Jiang. The bidding on the Serenity Street project will be discussed during the meeting. He's hoping for you

to be there.”

“Okay. Got it.” Jiang Zhe nodded.

Two days later, the bidding event for the project on Serenity Street was held.

That was the first time Nan Chen had met Ouyang Li in person. She was so average-looking that he didn't bother to

spare her a second glance.

On the other hand, Ouyang Li was utterly mesmerized when she saw Nan Chen.

Although their families were close, Ouyang Li had always been overlooked in the Ouyang family. She was seldom

required to attend social events.

Despite the fact that Nan Chen and Ouyang Qing were close, Ouyang Li had only seen him a few times before, and

the last time she had seen him was many years ago.

Ouyang Li wasn't impressed when Ouyang Qing fell for Nan Chen and started pursuing him.

She never cared about how good-looking a man was. In her opinion, a person's physical appearance was trivial.

Perhaps that was why she wasn't that much of a looker. She always thought that a person's appearance could

never determine their worth.

She once thought Ouyang Qing was an idiot for falling so hard for a good-looking man.

However, when she saw Nan Chen that day, she was stunned.

Needless to say, a person would never understand something without seeing it with their own eyes.

Although Ouyang Li knew Nan Chen was good-looking, it was merely an image in her mind.

When she finally saw him that day, she eventually found out how captivating he could be.

In other words, nothing could beat seeing him with her own eyes. How can a man possibly look so good when he's

just sitting there? It's like other men around here have just vanished all of a sudden.

Indeed, the place was filled with men in suits, but Nan Chen stood out from all his peers.

Ouyang Li finally understood why Ouyang Qing was so desperate to marry Nan Chen.

“Ms. Ouyang, this way please,” her assistant uttered.

“Oh, okay.”

Ouyang Li and Nan Chen both sat in the first row, but they were five seats apart.

When Ouyang Li threw another glance at him, she saw him staring at his phone as if there was no one else around.

Nan Chen did not plan to attend the bidding event, but the relevant leader had called him earlier and urged him to

show up. That way, the media outlets could take photos of him. Subsequently, the public would think that Flower

City regarded the old town project with great importance.

That was why the people sitting next to Nan Chen that day were all the leaders of the relevant departments.

There were a lot of reporters at the event, and they couldn't stop taking photos of Nan Chen, who kept scrolling

through his emails expressionlessly.

Right then, Nan Chen received a call from Erbao.

He stood up, nodded at the leaders next to him, and walked toward the restroom.

“What is it, Erbao?” Nan Chen asked gently.

“Are you at work, Daddy?”

“I am, but it's okay. I'm listening.”

“It's nothing, actually. I miss you, Daddy. I just wanted to hear your voice.”

“Oh, I see. Have you eaten?”

“I have, but I'm not full yet. Mommy told me to eat less because my tummy is bulging.”

“Don't listen to your mommy. Just eat however much you want.” Nan Chen smiled.
