Rebirth: Starting with Capturing the Goddess Mentor

Chapter 168 I don't want to keep doing this sneaking around anymore.

After the Buick official car drove away, Chen Yan stepped forward and shook Jiang Zhixin's hand.

Jiang Zhixin abruptly shook off Chen Yan's hand, her tone icy: "President Chen, please have some self-respect!"

Ok?
Mr. Chen? What kind of stunt is this now?
Is she playing the role of a domineering CEO's beautiful female secretary?

Chen Yan was taken aback by the sudden action and words, and subconsciously asked, "What's wrong with you? Why are you suddenly getting angry?"

Jiang Zhixin sneered, her eyes flashing with grievance and dissatisfaction: "What's wrong? You're asking me what's wrong? Your company changed its address and got a new round of financing. Such big things, and you didn't say a word."

"I'm not only your counselor, but also your girlfriend, yet I have to find out about these things through other people. What do you take me for?"

Chen Yan then suddenly realized what was going on.

Goodness, no wonder she hadn't given me a kind look all day; it turns out she was upset that I hadn't shared these things with her right away.

"Xinbao, I really didn't mean to keep it from you. I originally thought you might not be interested in these work-related matters, so I didn't tell you."

Chen Yan first explained why he did this.

Sure enough, Jiang Zhixin's expression softened noticeably after hearing this.

Then, he took Jiang Zhixin's hands in his own and said with deep affection, "If you're interested in these things, I'll let you know as soon as I have any news about my career, okay?"

At the entrance of Qiantangyin Building, people were coming and going. At this moment, a beautiful woman and a tall, handsome man stood facing each other, attracting the attention of many people.

Jiang Zhixin's pretty face flushed slightly: "Oh dear, how can you be so greasy at such a young age? Let go, lots of people are watching."

"What's there to be afraid of? Let them be envious."

After saying that, Chen Yan gripped Jiang Zhixin's hand tightly and pulled her into his arms.

"Huh~"

The surrounding crowd booed, as if to say, "Showing off your love will only lead to a quick breakup," or "A good cabbage has been eaten by a pig."

Jiang Zhixin lightly punched him, "You're so embarrassing."

"hey-hey."

Chen Yan chuckled awkwardly, then pulled Jiang Zhixin toward the parking lot. "Let's have lunch together, and then I'll take you back to school?"

"Ah."

Jiang Zhixin nodded slightly.

She suddenly realized that she had never eaten alone with Chen Yan at a restaurant before.

Twenty minutes later, Chen Yan drove Jiang Zhixin to the Raffles City shopping mall in the city center.

"Why did we come to such a far place?" Jiang Zhixin asked, turning her head.

Chen Yan unbuckled his seatbelt and explained, "This is the first time we're eating out alone, shouldn't we find a nice restaurant?"

Jiang Zhixin felt a warmth in her heart: So he remembered too.

Chen Yanxuan's restaurant is called Yue Rongxuan, located on the 58th floor of Raffles City. It is a Michelin-starred restaurant specializing in Cantonese cuisine.

Lunch shouldn't be too greasy, so light and refreshing Cantonese cuisine is a good choice.

Chen Yan led Jiang Zhixin into Yue Rong Xuan and, guided by a waiter, chose a seat by the window.

From the 58th floor, you can see the entire Qiantang River.

On a spring afternoon, the river surface shimmered, and several tour boats slowly sailed by, leaving white streaks in their wake. The tall buildings on both banks of the river appeared and disappeared in the thin mist.

"Imperial Pigeon Swallow's Nest, Black Truffle Braised Sea Cucumber with Scallions and Green Rice Dumplings, Lobster Soup with Snow Crab, Matsutake Mushroom Stewed with Duck Soup, Ten-Year Shaoxing Wine Drunken Taishan Crab, Golden Sauce Baked Lobster."

Chen Yan closed the menu and handed it to the waiter, "Two more cups of mango pomelo sago, that's all."

"Yes, sir, it will be prepared for you shortly."

After the waiter left, Chen Yan thought to himself:

"Damn it, this meal will cost several thousand yuan again. The commission of over ten thousand yuan I got from the company last time is almost gone. It seems like I should treat myself to a salary. How much should I pay?"

"A monthly salary of 3? No way, a few good meals and a few nights in a five-star hotel and it'll be gone." "How about 6 a month, that's 2000 a day on average, that should be enough."

"Okay, I'll talk to Zheng Jia about it later."

Seeing Chen Yan deep in thought, Jiang Zhixin gently nudged the tip of his shoe with her foot: "What are you thinking about?"

Chen Yan snapped out of his daze, looked at Jiang Zhixin's radiant face, and said:

"I'm thinking, why don't you just quit your job? I don't want to keep doing this sneaking around like this anymore."

"I want to hold your hand and walk with you openly on campus, and I want to post your photos on social media so that everyone can see them."

Hearing this, it would be a lie to say that Jiang Zhixin wasn't moved.

She struggled to suppress the urge to smile and asked, "If I quit my job, who will support me?"

"I'll support you."

Chen Yan quoted a classic line from Stephen Chow.

"No! I don't want to be an appendage of men; I want to be an independent woman of the new era."

Hehe, that would be best. If you really agree, I'll be in a difficult position.

Although he thought this way, actor Chen still pretended to be extremely wronged and sighed heavily.

"Okay, let's wait a little longer. We'll consider going public when you're a senior in college."

Jiang Zhixin rarely acted coquettishly.

"Alright then," Chen Yan reluctantly agreed.

Michelin-starred restaurants are generally slower to serve because each dish is cooked to order, unlike other restaurants that have many pre-made dishes that only need to be heated up after the customer orders.

Chen Yan got bored while waiting, so he went to the restroom.

But when he came back after urinating, he found a man standing next to Jiang Zhixin, and judging from his appearance, it seemed like he was... trying to pick her up?
"Hi, miss. My friend and I came here to eat, and I saw you as soon as I walked in. I think I'll regret it if I don't come over and ask for your contact information today."

"So I'm taking the liberty of bothering you here. May I add you on WeChat?"

Jiang Zhixin had seen many such flirts since junior high school, and was no longer surprised by them.

She wanted to say directly, "Sorry, it's not convenient to add you."

But seeing Chen Yan walking towards them, she suddenly felt playful and blurted out, "Then I need to ask my husband if he agrees."

As he spoke, Chen Yan had already walked to the dining table.

Jiang Zhixin smiled at Chen Yan, pointed to the bewildered man who had approached her, and said sweetly, "Honey~ Can he add me on WeChat?"

Chen Yan laughed in exasperation.

Damn it, I'm always the one who steals other people's partners, who do you think you are to dare steal mine!

So he pointed directly at the man who was hitting on him and yelled, "Get lost! Go back to where you came from, or I'll report you for sexual harassment!"

Knowing he had been rude, the man who had approached her didn't dare say anything in the face of the woman's husband's criticism and could only leave dejectedly.

After Chen Yan sat down, he looked at Jiang Zhixin without saying a word.

Jiang Zhixin felt a little uneasy under his gaze: "Why are you staring at me like that?"

Chen Yan asked, "What did you just call me?"

Jiang Zhixin immediately pretended to be confused: "What? I don't know what you're talking about."

Chen Yan grabbed her chin and said domineeringly, "Woman, remember to call me that from now on!"

"Get out! You have no manners! I'm your teacher!"
