Chapter 85: Chapter 85: Rong Mochen: Guarding Against Me This Much? (1)
With a matched heart found, Jin Jumo and Jian Liangtong seemed much brighter. Walking to Jin Jumo’s side, Jian Liangtong said teasingly, "Doesn’t Doctor Ying like you?"
Jin Jumo’s eyes flickered, but she said nothing.
Seeing this, Jian Liangtong was instantly filled with delight, her eyes widening. "So my intuition was right, Doctor Ying really likes you? Did he confess? Did you agree?"
Jin Jumo glanced at her, still silent.
"Doctor Ying is so handsome and tall, and his temper is amazing, just perfect." Jian Liangtong grew more excited the more she spoke, "Ju Zi, I approve. If you and Doctor Ying get together, he’d definitely treat you well. I mean, Jin Jumo, how much good fortune have you accumulated in your past life to meet not only me but also Doctor Ying in this one?"
Praising Ying Jingyao wasn’t complete without praising herself as well.
Jin Jumo rolled her eyes at the sky, "Miss us, can we not boast about ourselves?"
"Quick, tell me, how did Doctor Ying confess to you? Did you agree or not?" Jian Liangtong was brimming with curiosity, squatting in front of Jin Jumo, staring intently at her.
Jin Jumo looked at her, her brows furrowing slightly. After a while, she slowly said, "Brother Ying isn’t what we imagined; we’re not from the same world."
"How come Doctor Ying isn’t from the same world as us? How is he different from us?" Jian Liangtong didn’t understand.
Jin Jumo smiled, tapping her nose, "Anyway, we’re not suitable. So let’s just drop this topic!"
"Why? I think Doctor Ying is perfect in every way, you two are incredibly well-matched. Ju Zi, haven’t I met countless people? I have a keen eye for people! Doctor Ying is definitely a top-notch guy!" Jian Liangtong insisted on convincing Jin Jumo.
Because in her view, Ying Jingyao truly was an exceptionally rare gem among men in the world!
Jin Jumo looked at her amused, "You’ve met countless people? Others might not know, but I know. Zero experience in relationships, negative emotional intelligence, and yet you dare to boast shamelessly before me! Give it up!"
Jian Liangtong’s face turned red with embarrassment, but she stubbornly said, "Haven’t you seen the G University forum? Someone posted that I change boyfriends frequently, like every three days. All the well-known handsome guys at school have dated me!"
Whenever posts about Jian Liangtong at school were brought up, Jin Jumo couldn’t help but laugh. Over the past few years, Jian Liangtong had become a combination of beauty and scandal at school, unarguably the top beauty and scandal queen of G University.
Rumors of her boyfriends were as numerous as fish crossing the river, even allegedly dating some little-known actor, caught checking into hotels on certain days, and someone audaciously claimed about ’doing it’ with Jian Liangtong. In the end, the thread was filled with vulgar questions...
However, the male student who posted that in the end was caught by Jian Liangtong after three days, and it turned out to be the most secretly flirtatious guy in their class, making Jian Liangtong so angry she nearly kicked him dead!
"Stop bringing up your posts on the school forum with me," Jin Jumo said, dimpling with laughter.
Jian Liangtong pouted angrily, "I truly am a natural target for slander!"
Jin Jumo burst out laughing, pinching her cheek, "Who told you to look so flashy."
"It’s my fault!" Jian Liangtong rolled her eyes.
In the evening, when Jian Liangtong was craving Juewei House’s duck neck, Jin Jumo had no choice but to go out and buy it for her.
Passing by the hospital entrance on her way back, Jin Jumo casually glanced at a familiar black Spyker parked by the roadside.
Pressing her lips, Jin Jumo, on a whim, walked toward the Spyker.
As she got closer, seeing the elegantly poised man in the driver’s seat, her eyes curved into the shape of peach blossoms, "Mr. Rong, it’s really you?"
Rong Mochen had actually noticed Jin Jumo from the rearview mirror for some time, but her walking towards him rather than hiding was quite unexpected.
After all, considering their encounter last night, this little woman seemed quite unwilling to see him!
But this woman probably hadn’t forgotten how disdainful she was towards him last night?
Rong Mochen’s lips pulled into a faint sneer, his dark eyes eerily staring at Jin Jumo, looking at her cheerful face, squinting slightly, "You’re not avoiding me now?"
Why did that sound so resentful?
Jin Jumo awkwardly twirled her hair, "Mr. Rong, what are you talking about, why would I avoid you? You’re a millionaire, I can hardly wait to cozy up to you."
"Cozy up?" Rong Mochen scoffed, "Wasn’t what you said last night different?"
Jin Jumo blinked, "Last night? Did I say something last night?"
Playing dumb?
Rong Mochen pressed his lips tight, his dark eyes grew deeper, coldly uttering, "Hypocritical!"
"..." Jin Jumo was knocked speechless by those words, her face turning red, she licked her lips, deciding not to ask for trouble, awkwardly smiling, "My friend is waiting for me to bring her food, well, Mr. Rong, I’m leaving now."
Rong Mochen said nothing, his eyes deeply fixated on her.
Jin Jumo shifted her eyes uncomfortably, suddenly feeling like she must have been out of her mind earlier, approaching him for no reason, wasn’t she just seeking awkwardness!
After waiting a moment, not hearing Rong Mochen speak, she turned to leave.
"Tomorrow night I’ll be waiting for you at Jinming Port City, the driver will bring you over." He spoke up just then.
"..." Jin Jumo paused her steps, looking at him in surprise, "Mr. Rong, are you talking to me?"
Rong Mochen frowned, "Besides you and me here, is there anyone else?"
Jin Jumo inhaled, "Mr. Rong, our contract..."
"Don’t want the million?" Rong Mochen interrupted her with a sarcastic laugh.
Jin Jumo shut her mouth.
He was right; she almost forgot, the last month’s million hadn’t been given to her yet.
Jin Jumo couldn’t help feeling a bit regretful; if she had known, she would’ve deducted a million from that ten million before transferring it.
"Or are you saying you plan to forgo it?" Rong Mochen stared at Jin Jumo.
"Of course I want it," Jin Jumo wasn’t stupid.
Currently, her grandfather was about to undergo surgery, requiring a large sum of money, and her grandfather would need time to recover afterward. Besides, they’d need somewhere to stay after being discharged, right?
So money was very necessary to her right now!
But...
"Mr. Rong, actually you could have the finance department transfer it to me directly..." Jin Jumo softly suggested.
"You remember how cautious you were when signing the contract a year ago, shouldn’t terminating the contract be just as cautious?" Rong Mochen said indifferently.
What caution does terminating a contract need? It expires and voids automatically, surely there’s no formal procedure?
Of course, Jin Jumo only internally retorted a bit.
Looking at his determined, icy side profile, as if insisting on some formal contract termination procedure, Jin Jumo had no choice but to compromise, yet she still suggested, "Evening might be somewhat inconvenient. How about morning or afternoon, we arrange a time?"
"So, you think I have a lot of free time?" Rong Mochen lightly squinted his eyes, his handsome face a bit mocking.
Jin Jumo twitch her lips, casting him a glance.
She understood now.
He was insistent on having her go to Jinming Port City, wasn’t he?
"Of course, you can also choose not to take that million."
"..." Why shouldn’t she take her money?
Jin Jumo puffed her lips, somewhat unwilling, "I’ll go tomorrow night."
After speaking, she turned and left without looking back.
Rong Mochen watched Jin Jumo’s angry silhouette through the rearview mirror, his dark eyes narrowing slightly.
In the hospital room, Jian Liangtong glanced up while gnawing on the duck neck, noticing Jin Jumo, who returned with the duck neck but seemed out of sorts, sucking on her finger, "Ju Zi, what’s wrong with you?"
Jin Jumo opened her mouth to say something, but in the end, she silently closed it, shaking her head, "It’s nothing."
