Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.
Chapter 23 Unpredictable Weather
Although the rain was light, the drizzle still made her feel slightly chilly.
On the streets, people hurried by, some without umbrellas, running quickly through the rain, perhaps trying to avoid the impending downpour. The roads in the capital were already so congested that it made one question the meaning of life.
Rain can be romantic and poetic, but it's also something drivers dislike, especially those eager to get home.
Fortunately, my car doesn't have four wheels, so I can drive through the streets and alleys.
Looking up, in another corner of the sky, a black curtain was automatically drawn, attempting to blur the entire sky and occupy it completely.
Trying to avoid the heavy rain, Tang Junyao weaved through the gaps between cars like a darting rabbit; the congested road did limit her speed to some extent.
"Young Master Ji, it's the young mistress." Ji Hancheng unusually got off work early for the evening. Han Yue and the others had come to see him this afternoon, so he was too lazy to go out again.
Xu Mingkai, with his sharp eyes, spotted the motorcycle weaving through the vehicles at a glance; he remembered the license plate vividly.
The man stopped flipping through the documents, looked up at the window, and saw the woman weaving nimbly between the cars.
It looks like standard procedure.
He frowned when he saw that the woman wasn't wearing a raincoat and was just letting the rain hit her.
He parted his thin lips slightly and instructed Xu Mingkai, "Tomorrow, go and buy her a nice raincoat, and tell her you bought it."
Ji Hancheng's words shocked Xu Mingkai, who couldn't help but look at his expression through the rearview mirror.
His face was expressionless, as if he had just said it casually.
I misunderstood. Didn't Young Master Ji start to fall for Young Madam?
The point is, who is riding a motorcycle and wearing a raincoat? Aren't they all riding electric bikes and wearing raincoats?
However, Xu Mingkai was very confident in Tang Junyao. He believed that the young mistress would definitely win over Ji Hancheng, no doubt about it.
Thinking about it this way, I couldn't be happier. I can wait and see how Young Master Ji pursues his wife. I can secretly collect money and share the melons with them, so that A Yuan and the others can also hear about it. Sharing happiness is worse than keeping it to yourself. Not bad, this is a good project to make money.
The car stopped at the Imperial Garden, and Xu Mingkai was still grinning.
He raised his dark, unreadable eyes and looked into the brightly lit living room of the villa. "What are you grinning about all by yourself for?"
Xu Mingkai, snapped out of his daze by Ji Hancheng's call, was momentarily stunned. "It's nothing."
Ji Hancheng rolled his eyes at him disdainfully, "Go buy a raincoat now."
"Huh?" Young Master Ji, we're already home, and you're going to buy a raincoat again? What were you doing just now?
It's not going to rain tomorrow, are you in a bit of a rush, eager to have a daughter?
There was no other way; under pressure from his boss's authority, he had to start the engine again.
Inside the kitchen of the Royal Garden Villa.
Tang Junyao was a little hungry and was rummaging through the food in the refrigerator, but she had been so busy lately that she had forgotten to refill it.
It was completely empty; there was nothing there—not even vegetables or noodles.
But I was starving, and since I was a little damp, I wanted to take a shower.
On second thought, I realized I'd have to wash the dishes again after cooking, so I decided to eat first and then wash them.
A lightbulb went off in my head—there seemed to be a bag of snail rice noodles under the cupboard.
To eat or not to eat, she recalled the scene on the second night after they got their marriage certificate when she was eating snail rice noodles and Ji Hancheng threw a prenuptial agreement at her with a look of disgust.
They probably won't be back that early; it's not even 9 o'clock yet.
Regardless, between starving to death and being cursed to death, I will choose the principle of not becoming a starving ghost.
After figuring it out, I decisively broke it apart and put it in a pot to cook.
Ten minutes later, the noodles were cooked through. She put all the seasoning packets into the pot, and soon a bowl of incredibly smelly snail rice noodles was ready.
She brought it into the restaurant, first bowing her head to smell it with satisfaction, "Ah, it smells so good. I haven't eaten this in so long. It's all because of that pampered young master that I can't enjoy my food."
One bite and you feel incredibly satisfied and comfortable.
Just as I was about to take my fifth bite, there was a crunch.
Her hand holding the chopsticks paused. She had done something humble, but she always lacked confidence. Oh no, she had only just started eating. Why was she back so early today?
Tang Junyao originally planned to open the window and light some incense after finishing her meal, so that the smell would dissipate by the time Ji Hancheng returned in the middle of the night.
Who knew they'd come back now, and even catch us red-handed?
As soon as Ji Hancheng entered the house, he was choked by a stench and couldn't breathe. His brows furrowed, and he covered his mouth with one hand, looking extremely disgusted.
He turned to the restaurant and complained, "You're eating that stuff again."
Tang Junyao felt incredibly guilty, after all, she was living under someone else's roof. "There was nothing in the refrigerator, so I thought it would be more convenient to cook this."
He stared at her for a while without answering, then went straight to open all the windows and left the doors open.
After he finished, he stood in front of her, looking down at her and said, "Don't eat this kind of thing at home next time. Don't you feel like you're standing in a cesspool?"
Tang Junyao: "........" You're the one standing in the latrine, your whole family is standing by the latrine, you might as well just say I'm eating shit.
Ji Hancheng saw dissatisfaction in her eyes. "Can't you do it?"
"OK." Next time I'll find the smelliest thing to eat, and it'll stink you to death.
Just as he was about to head upstairs, he tossed her a bag and said expressionlessly, "Assistant Xu saw you driving without a raincoat and bought you one."
Tang Junyao was flattered and accepted the bag. When she opened it, she found a raincoat inside. The quality was quite good, but the price was a bit unreasonable.
However, it's understandable. People like them would definitely buy the best and most expensive things to match their status.
Tang Junyao looked up at him and asked, "How much? I'll transfer it to you." Actually, the price tag had it written on it, but she was wondering if there was a discount or something. However, she wanted to transfer a little less, since she wouldn't spend that money on a raincoat.
And she never wears a raincoat when she drives.
But if someone has already bought it, it's a bit unreasonable to immediately return it.
"Okay, scan the money for me." Suddenly, I remembered Lu Jinnan's boastful act of adding me on WeChat that afternoon.
Tang Junyao quickly refused, "No need, no need, I'll just forward it to Assistant Xu, how could I trouble you?" She dared not add him on WeChat, lest she accidentally add him under some other name.
He was proud and never bowed his head. Seeing that she was unwilling, he didn't take out his phone and coldly said, "Suit yourself."
After taking a few steps, he said again, "Throw what you're holding outside. Order takeout if you're hungry. You don't think it smells bad, but I do. Please abide by the cohabitation agreement, Miss Tang."
Tang Junyao silently told herself to stay calm, and then to stay calm again. This person is just weirdo. Don't get angry, don't get angry.
The man was sunny one minute, and now it's pouring rain; his mood is unpredictable.
He gritted his teeth and said, word by word, "Okay, Young Master Ji." He hadn't even eaten a few bites before throwing it away? What a waste. Forget it, he'd rather eat outside. Wasting food is shameful.
The man returned to his room, took out his phone from his pocket, and dialed Assistant Xu's number. The call was answered immediately. "Go to the supermarket now and buy some groceries, as well as breakfast items. Buy a lot and bring it to the Royal Garden."
After hanging up the phone, Xu Mingkai was seething with anger.
Ji Shao was playing with him tonight. On the way, he said he would buy a raincoat tomorrow, but when the car arrived at the entrance of Yuyuan, he said he would go to buy a raincoat again. He bought the raincoat at the supermarket anyway. Why didn't he buy groceries then? Now he has just arrived at the door and has not even taken out his keys yet, and he wants to go to the supermarket again.
What exactly should be done?
