Chapter 489: Calculating

Hearing Auntie Li say this, Xiao Churan hurriedly expressed her position: "Auntie Li, don't worry, Ye Chen and I have a good relationship."

As she spoke, Xiao Churan then said with an apologetic look: "Auntie Li, after you went to Jingcheng for treatment, I haven't had time to go to Jingcheng to visit you. If it weren't for Ye Chen telling me, I wouldn't have known that you had recovered and returned to Jin Ling. I'm really sorry..."

Auntie Li sighed: "After I got sick, you two were busy in the hospital. If it weren't for your help in raising money, Auntie might have been critically ill and passed away long ago..."

As she spoke, Auntie Li's eyes turned red, and she choked up: "Especially you, Churan, you were busy with the Xiao family's affairs, and you had to come to take care of me. Auntie is very grateful in her heart, and also feels very guilty. It was me who dragged you two down. If I really want to say sorry, it should be Auntie who says it!"

Xiao Churan hurriedly comforted: "Auntie Li, don't forget, I am Ye Chen's wife, and you are Ye Chen's benefactor, which means you are my benefactor too!"

Auntie Li looked at Xiao Churan, moved in her heart.

Seeing Xiao Churan again this time, Auntie Li felt that she was a little different from the past.

In the past, although Xiao Churan and Ye Chen often went to visit her, Xiao Churan was still vaguely alienated from Ye Chen, and it was obvious that there was no emotional foundation.

And seeing them again this time, the two had been holding hands. It seemed that the relationship between the two had also made great progress.

In the past, Auntie Li often heard gossip outside, so she had always been worried about the relationship between the two, fearing that Ye Chen would divorce Xiao Churan one day and be driven out of the Xiao family.

Seeing the relationship between the two improved at this time, she felt settled in her heart.

And the people present heard this conversation and couldn't help but be surprised.

They only knew that during Auntie Li's illness, Ye Chen had done so much for Auntie Li with his wife.

Ye Chen's performance was very humble. He took care of Auntie Li carefully, just wanting to repay the other party with all his heart, and never thought of using this to show off and sell in front of others.

However, Jiang Ming on the side was very depressed!

Today, everyone was able to come to visit Auntie Li together. Obviously, he was the real initiator and organizer!

Moreover, he had thought that he was a successful person anyway, and just wanted to take advantage of this welcoming banquet to show off in front of everyone, enjoy the flattery and fawning of this group of people, and by the way, develop with a little tender girl like Li Xiaofen.

Unexpectedly, he was robbed of the limelight by Ye Chen, making himself a background board instead!

Thinking of this, Jiang Ming looked at Ye Chen with a bit of resentment.

At this time, Auntie Li held Xiao Churan's hand and said gratifiedly: "Churan, you and Ye Chen are not young anymore, you should consider having a child. Among the children who left the welfare institute back then, Ye Chen is the only one who got married, and the rest are still bachelors. I, as an aunt, can't wait to hold a grandson!"

Xiao Churan blushed immediately.

She and Ye Chen had been married for more than three years, but no one had ever urged her to have children.

After all, the relatives around her looked down on Ye Chen, and couldn't wait for her to divorce Ye Chen, so how could they let her have children with Ye Chen.

However, being urged to have children by Auntie Li suddenly, besides being shy, she suddenly had some wonderful feelings in her heart.

Xiao Churan was about twenty-six years old, at the best childbearing age, and for a girl of this age, the maternal love and maternal love in her heart had already begun to breed faintly.

Take Xiao Churan for example, occasionally seeing others with children, she would also feel that maternal love was overflowing, and even began to think, I don't know when she could have a baby of her own.

However, because there were many things in the family, she had never dared to consider this problem deeply.

So, she said shyly: "Auntie Li, we haven't considered having children yet, because I have just started my own business, and the company has just improved a little. Recently, it is the busiest time."

Li Xiaofen looked at Xiao Churan with more envy and more loss in her heart.

She liked Ye Chen since she was a child, and dreamed of being able to marry Ye Chen and be Ye Chen's bride when she was very young, and she hadn't forgotten this dream until now, but now it seemed that she had no chance.

That's why she envied Xiao Churan even more, because in her opinion, Xiao Churan found the best man in the world, so she was the happiest woman in the world.

Auntie Li smiled slightly at this time and said: "Career is important, but sometimes family is also important. We women, having children shouldn't be too late, otherwise it will affect the body."

Xiao Churan nodded with a red face.

Li Xiaofen said embarrassedly at this time: "Auntie Li, the owner of the old restaurant just called and said that the restaurant's circuit had a problem and it couldn't be open today, so we have to change to another place to eat."

Auntie Li smiled and said: "Actually, it doesn't matter whether we eat or not. I'm already very happy to see everyone. There are so many people here who haven't seen each other for a long time."

Jiang Ming, who had been ignored, saw this and his eyes lit up.

He immediately stepped forward and blurted out: "Auntie Li, I will arrange for everyone to eat tonight."

As he spoke, he immediately took out his mobile phone and made a call, and then said to everyone: "Everyone, I have booked a place at the five-star Hyatt Hotel in Jin Ling. Let's hurry over now."

Hearing that Jiang Ming had booked a place at the five-star Hyatt Hotel, everyone was surprised!

Someone said embarrassedly: "Hyatt Hotel is a five-star hotel. If we go there to eat, it's too extravagant, right? A meal will cost two or three thousand, right?"

"Yes! If we split the bill, it will be one or two thousand per person. Our salary level can't afford such high consumption!"

Hearing this, everyone showed agreement on their faces.

Those who enter and exit five-star hotels are basically people from the upper class. Only they have the confidence to enjoy such places.

And these people present, because they were orphans, generally had low education and no background, so they couldn't talk about success.

Most of the jobs they found were relatively bottom-level, and many people's monthly salary was not enough to meet the expenses of daily life, and they worried about firewood, rice, oil, and salt all day long.

So, hearing that they were going to a five-star hotel to eat, everyone was a little worried, fearing that their financial resources would be insufficient and they would be stretched.

Jiang Ming smiled slightly at this time, and generously patted his chest and said: "Everyone don't worry, I will pay half of this meal, and you all pay the other half together. It is estimated that it will be a few hundred yuan per person, how about it?"

Hearing what he said, many people breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Ming paid half, which really reduced the pressure on everyone.

Someone couldn't help but say: "Jiang Ming, it's really embarrassing to let you pay half alone!"

Jiang Ming waved his hand indifferently and laughed: "Today is mainly to welcome Auntie Li, it doesn't matter if I spend more money!"

In fact, everyone didn't know that Jiang Ming happened to have a budget for company entertainment. He thought that this meal would cost two or three thousand, and he would pay half on the surface, and let others pay the other half.

Afterwards, he would go to the company to reimburse the invoice. Not only could he get back the half he spent, but he could also earn back the half everyone paid!

For example, a meal of 30,000, he paid 15,000, everyone paid 15,000, and afterwards he went to the company to reimburse 30,000. Not only did he earn face and favor in front of everyone, but he also earned 15,000!

Why not do it?
