Chapter 493: Liu Xin'ai's Contact Information

The air was quiet for a moment.

Jiang Chenghao's hand, resting to the side, clenched slightly, yet there was no great emotional fluctuation on his face; he simply nodded gently.

"It's quite good. Now that someone is taking care of her, I can rest easy. After all, given my situation back then, her family certainly wouldn't have agreed to it. It's for the best that we didn't stay together, and it's fortunate she wasn't foolish enough to keep waiting for me. After all, no one could guarantee whether I would ever recover, could they?"

"But..."

Jiang Baobao looked at him with some uncertainty, unable to believe he was truly this broad-minded.

Jiang Chenghao's expression suddenly turned somewhat sharp as he said, "For things to have reached this point today, I only hate the people of the Lu Family! If it weren't for them..."

He clenched his fist abruptly, a flash of intense hatred crossing his eyes.

Seeing this, Jiang Baobao hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Uncle, the people of the Lu Family won't have a good end! I promise you that!"

After she finished speaking, she suddenly thought of something and took a brand-new mobile phone out of her pocket.

"Uncle, this is for you."

As she spoke, Jiang Baobao handed the phone into Jiang Chenghao's hand.

"This is a new phone I bought specifically for you yesterday, and I've also registered a new number for it. Inside... I've saved my number. If I'm not home and you need anything, call me in time. Also..."

Jiang Baobao paused for a moment, thinking of the other number she had saved after some hesitation.

She did not know if what she had done was right or wrong.

She was simply leaving the choice to Jiang Chenghao.

If he wanted to, he could contact Liu Xin'ai at any time.

Even if the two of them could not rekindle their past, they should at least have a formal farewell...

Even if it was just to draw a conclusion to those years they spent in love.

"Alright, thank you."

Jiang Chenghao did not stand on ceremony; he took the phone and ruffled Jiang Baobao's hair just like when she was a child.

"Our Baobao has grown up; she's no longer that little crybaby..."

"I haven't been a little kid for a long time! I'm already a mommy to three children!"

Jiang Baobao instantly retorted, feeling unconvinced.

Over these past few days, the three little ones at home had been very happy that Li Mansion had gained a new member.

Jiang Chenghao was even more fond of the three little ones, waiting for them to return from kindergarten almost every day so they could all play together for a long while.

Jiang Chenghao smiled, but suddenly thought of something and asked, "By the way, the Jiang Family's business..."

"This..."

Jiang Baobao knew what he wanted to ask, and her expression immediately turned somewhat helpless.

Almost all of the Jiang Family's previous businesses had been abandoned by the Lu Family.

The current Jiang Family, aside from the assets returned by the Lu Family, was nothing more than an empty shell.

"It's fine, I roughly know the situation; you don't have to be so troubled."

As soon as Jiang Chenghao saw Jiang Baobao's expression, he knew what was going on and hurriedly comforted her, "I'm fine now, and I will start handling the company's affairs as soon as possible..."

Jiang Baobao hurriedly said, "Uncle, these things can't be rushed for now; just leave them to me..."

Before she could finish her sentence, a light sound suddenly came from outside the door.

"Come in."

Jiang Baobao said toward the doorway.

Immediately after, she saw Li Beijue walk in from outside, holding a document in his hand.

"What is this?"

Jiang Baobao looked at the item in his hand with some curiosity.

Li Beijue, however, placed all the documents directly by Jiang Chenghao's side.

"These are the ones I organized regarding all the businesses the Jiang Family handled in the past few years. For the companies that still have potential for cooperation, I have already made notes. Li Corporation can also invest in the Jiang Family to get all the operations back on track as quickly as possible. You can look through these materials first, and once you've recovered enough, we can discuss it in detail."

Jiang Baobao looked at the documents he had placed on the bed in surprise and asked subconsciously, "You... when did you do all this? How come I didn't know?"

"Just these past two days; it wasn't very troublesome, so I just organized them all."

Li Beijue answered in a light and breezy manner.

Jiang Baobao, however, was stunned for a moment, feeling a bit moved inside.

How could it not be troublesome?

These past few days, she had been preoccupied and always went to sleep very late.

Almost every night, she heard a faint sound coming from the room next door.

She had thought he was just too busy with work during this period, but she hadn't expected...

Jiang Baobao's heart felt sour and soft; looking at Li Beijue, her eyes carried a hint of attraction that even she herself hadn't noticed.

Jiang Chenghao, however, took in her expression completely.

At first, when he heard about the conflict between the two, he had been somewhat dissatisfied with Li Beijue.

But seeing his meticulous care and concern for Jiang Baobao over these past few days, he felt at ease.

"Ahem... I'm a bit tired. Baobao, you go rest too; it's a good time for me to look through these materials."

Jiang Chenghao did not want to be a third wheel, so he deliberately found an excuse to let the two of them leave.

Jiang Baobao then came back to her senses, hurriedly nodded, and gave him a careful reminder not to look for too long before leaving the room.

The door closed, but Jiang Chenghao did not rush to look at the materials; instead, he picked up the phone that had been placed to the side.

He had a premonition.

Baobao definitely wouldn't have saved only her own number in the phone.

Jiang Chenghao lit up the screen and gently tapped on the contact list on the screen.

The next second—

On the white background, two numbers immediately appeared.

One was Jiang Baobao's.

The other was simply labeled with the two characters "Xin'ai".

Jiang Chenghao's breath hitched sharply, and he stared blankly at the two characters on the screen, unable to snap out of it for a moment.

He looked at it for a long time, then reached out his finger with some hesitation.

Yet, looking at the dial button hovering above the screen, he delayed pressing it.

Should he make this call?

If she answered... what would he even say?

Jiang Chenghao's fingers trembled slightly, and after hesitating for a long while, he finally put down his phone and let out a heavy sigh.

He was afraid.

Afraid that the two of them were no longer like they were in the beginning, able to talk about anything.

Afraid that after the call connected, he wouldn't know what to say.

But no matter what, he would definitely find a way to see her as soon as possible!

Some things were better said in person...

But he had to wait until he recovered a bit more, to see her in his best state.

If...

That Qin Yiyan really treated her well, and she really already had someone she liked, he naturally wouldn't pester her and would sincerely wish her well.

On the other side—

Jiang Baobao and Li Beijue were walking side by side in the corridor, but she was somewhat preoccupied.

She didn't know if her uncle would actually contact Xinaijie...

Just as she was thinking this, she suddenly saw a hand block firmly in front of her.

Jiang Baobao's footsteps faltered, and she stopped instinctively.

Immediately after, she heard Li Beijue say with amusement: "How are you walking without looking at the path? You were about to bump into the cabinet."

Hearing this, Jiang Baobao lowered her eyes to scan, only then seeing that she had nearly kicked the low cabinet holding a decorative vase nearby.

"Ah... thank you..."

She hurriedly thanked him, but after speaking, she suddenly thought of the matter from just before.

Li Beijue had specifically organized those documents of the Jiang Family... it really was hard work for him...
