Chapter 311: Maybe We'll Just Have a Flash Marriage

~7 min read 1,283 words

Cai Xiaotang hid herself thoroughly, wishing she could not even show a single strand of hair.

Seeing this, Jiang Baobao couldn't help but find it amusing and was just about to speak when she felt her arm being yanked hard by her.

"You hide quickly!"

Cai Xiaotang seemed truly terrified of running into Li Xiao; as she spoke, she had already crouched down and huddled next to Jiang Baobao.

Jiang Baobao glanced out the window again, then hurriedly said, "Alright, he didn't see you. He just glanced upward unintentionally a moment ago, and now it seems they are already preparing to leave..."

As Jiang Baobao spoke, she helped Cai Xiaotang up from the ground.

Upon hearing this, Cai Xiaotang finally let out a heavy sigh of relief, stood up from the ground, and vigilantly glanced out the window.

Immediately after, she truly saw Li Xiao opening the car door to get in, followed by several men whose purpose was unknown, and the group drove away without looking back.

"Phew... it's good that they're gone..." Cai Xiaotang rolled her eyes at the window in annoyance, then finally sat back down in her seat, feeling at ease.

Jiang Baobao watched, amused, and couldn't help but tease, "Are you really that afraid of him? Li Xiao isn't much different in age from you. If he really likes you..."

"He likes me, but I don't like him! Besides, he even said those strange things, so of course I have to stay far away!"

As Cai Xiaotang spoke, her eyes remained uneasy, scanning outside the window from time to time.

Jiang Baobao suddenly couldn't help but ask curiously, "Xiao Tang, come to think of it, I don't seem to know what kind of boyfriend you want to find. Do you have a preferred type?"

Cai Xiaotang didn't expect her to ask this suddenly. She was stunned for a moment, pondered for two seconds, and then replied, "Type, well... it's hard to say. I've always gone by feeling. You see, I'm not dating right now, but if I really met someone I clicked with, maybe a flash marriage is possible!"

"A flash marriage? Let's forget about that. Two people being together definitely requires enough time to get to know each other..." Jiang Baobao couldn't help but frown, somewhat disapproving of Cai Xiaotang's words.

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw her wave her hand dismissively: "It doesn't matter. Anyway, it's best if two people are happy together. If they can be happy for a lifetime, then they stay together for a lifetime. If he makes me unhappy in the middle, then we'll just part ways. In this world, there is no one who can't live without someone else."

Cai Xiaotang shrugged, her words spoken with great nonchalance.

Jiang Baobao was taken aback upon hearing this; she wanted to say something more, but swallowed her words back.

Perhaps Xiao Tang being this way wasn't a bad thing. Hadn't she herself always envied her free-spirited personality since before?

Jiang Baobao thought, then suddenly heard Cai Xiaotang change the subject: "Right, there's something I forgot to tell you. I'm going on a business trip to the neighboring city for a few days. I'll drive over right after I finish eating. I was originally going to leave tomorrow, but our boss told me to go tonight. I just happened to stuff my luggage into the trunk when I left earlier."

"So urgent? How many days are you going for this time?" Jiang Baobao asked, caught between laughter and tears.

"Hard to say, two or three days. This hotel is newly renovated, the advertising is very aggressive, and they took the initiative to come to us and invite us over."

Cai Xiaotang said slowly, casually pouring herself a glass of fruit juice.

Jiang Baobao nodded thoughtfully upon hearing this, and thinking of her profession, couldn't help but say, "Everyone feels envious when they hear about your profession, but rushing off on business trips overnight like this is actually very tiring..."

As Jiang Baobao spoke, she thought of Cai Xiaotang's work content and couldn't help but laugh.

Cai Xiaotang's profession was truly too niche.

So niche that almost everyone, upon hearing the words "Hotel Reviewer," would ask in surprise, does such a profession actually exist in the world?

"Who's to say it isn't..." Cai Xiaotang sighed helplessly while shaking the glass in her hand: "I originally wanted to have a few drinks with you, but now, I have to drive later, so I can't drink anything. I don't know what the environment of that hotel is like either; if I can't get a good rest, it'll be too miserable."

"Then I wish you encounter a good hotel this time and can stay comfortably for a few days!"

Jiang Baobao picked up her glass and tapped it lightly against hers.

The two finished their dinner, and seeing that it was already getting late, Jiang Baobao hurriedly urged, "Let's stop here for today. You should leave early, otherwise it's too unsafe to drive when it's too late..."

"Mm, that's what I plan to do. Let's meet up again when I get back!" Cai Xiaotang agreed readily.

The two settled the bill and then parted ways at the entrance of the restaurant.

Jiang Baobao watched Cai Xiaotang walk away before driving home.

Just as she arrived at the villa entrance, she saw that her car, which had been sent for repairs, was finally parked in the courtyard, as intact as before.

"Miss Jiang, your car has been repaired. Please take a look and see if there are any issues."

Zheng Bo hurried over when he saw Jiang Baobao get out of the car.

Jiang Baobao had been renting a car to drive during this time, and finally seeing her own car, she suddenly felt her mood improve and hurriedly stepped forward to look it over from top to bottom.

Immediately, she saw that the large dent that had been smashed into the roof of the car had been repaired until it was perfectly smooth, and there were no traces of it having been damaged at all.

"No problems, thank you for your trouble." Jiang Baobao smiled at Zheng Bo.

As soon as she finished speaking, the sound of a car reached her ears.

She turned around subconsciously and saw Li Beijue's car also parked at the entrance, and the next second, he stepped out of the car.

"Young Master." Zheng Bo immediately bowed and greeted him.

Li Beijue nodded, his gaze slowly falling on Jiang Baobao's familiar car.

Seeing this, Jiang Baobao hurriedly said, "My car is repaired, thank you."

She said a casual thank you, and the next second, without looking back, she immediately turned and entered the villa, her expression somewhat subtle.

She had already expressed her thanks, so this should be enough, right?

During this time, just like now, she had to keep her distance from Li Beijue in daily life!

Outside the door, Li Beijue watched Jiang Baobao's fleeing back, a flash of confusion crossing his eyes.

It wasn't an illusion; she seemed... to really be avoiding him?

Li Beijue's gaze flickered for a moment, his eyes slowly falling on Jiang Baobao's car again, and he suddenly asked in a low voice, "Why was it sent back so quickly?"

"Young Master, Miss Jiang's car was repaired a long time ago; we had already delayed it twice..."

Zheng Bo hurriedly replied with a helpless and amused expression, his own look becoming somewhat puzzled.

Then, suddenly thinking of something, he hurriedly reminded, "Young Master, Miss Jiang's car has already broken down twice. If it happens again, I'm afraid it might be... a bit too deliberate..."
