Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 2648: A Young Woman's Voice (Bonus Chapter 5)

Jian Ye glanced at the drawings and explained gently, “Qingling, this children’s room is a bit far from the master bedroom, it was suggested by Young Master Chu.”

“Just change it as I said, I’ll talk to him later.”

Bai Qingling spoke without lifting her head.

Nearby, Feng Yize gave up looking at his phone, turned his head to look at the children’s room Qingling was talking about again.

He blinked his charming eyes, two children’s rooms?

Third Brother is planning long-term, already decided on having two kids?

“Qingling, why don’t you discuss with Young Master Chu first, ask him, after all, it’s his villa.”

Jian Ye upheld his duty as a designer, felt Qingling shouldn’t decide for Chu Junming. He was unsure if she and Chu Junming were in a relationship.

But even if they were, if they couldn’t reach consensus on the renovation, misunderstandings might arise.

Bai Qingling looked up at Jian Ye and frowned slightly, took out her phone to contact Chu Junming.

After all, she couldn’t tell them she was treating the villa as her own in the renovation, she only thought about it in her heart until it was finished.

Imperial City.

In the courtyard of the Chu Family Mansion.

Chu Junming looked indifferently at Jiang Qian blocking his way, “Is there anything else?”

He had already made things clear earlier.

Also considered saving her face, didn’t expect she would still chase after him.

The weather in Imperial City wasn’t warm, Jiang Qian chased out from the living room without adding a coat, wearing only a thin cashmere sweater, because of the cold, her exposed neck shrank slightly.

“Chu Junming, I also have something to say.”

Jiang Qian clasped her hands in front, looking seriously at Chu Junming.

Just as handsome and aloof as in the photo.

She knew he wouldn’t easily accept his mother’s arrangements, but she didn’t expect he wouldn’t give them any chance at all.

Chu Junming raised an eyebrow, his voice very calm, “Go ahead.”

Jiang Qian breathed a silent sigh of relief.

Willing to listen, that’s good.

She pursed her lips, just about to speak when Chu Junming’s phone suddenly rang.

Jiang Qian kindly said, “You should answer your call first.”

Chu Junming took out his phone, seeing the caller ID, the chill between his brows softened.

He pressed the answer button with his long fingers, his voice low and gentle as he said “Hello” and stepped aside.

“Chu Junming, did you deliberately make that children’s room far from the master bedroom?”

“Children’s room?”

Chu Junming thought for a moment, responding out of context, “If you have better suggestions, have them make some changes.”

“Yes, the children’s room should be closer to the master bedroom, so any noise from the child at night can be heard immediately. Jian Ye said you wanted the children’s room designed far from the master bedroom, I think this point needs to be changed.”

Chu Junming’s gaze fell on a blooming red flower nearby, he wasn’t knowledgeable about flowers, but Mother Chu particularly liked tending to plants.

In the garden courtyard, there were flowers blooming year-round.

He couldn’t recognize the name of the flower swaying in the breeze, but hearing Bai Qingling’s voice, for a moment, he felt she resembled the flower before him.

He walked forward two more steps, reached out and touched the petals.

The corners of his lips curved slightly, almost imperceptible, “Hmm, I didn’t think it through before, your suggestion is quite good. See what else needs to be changed, just tell them, no need to ask for my opinion, you decide directly. Just send me the revised version later to take a look.”

Having someone help with the renovation, Chu Junming felt quite good.

“Then I’ll have him make the changes.”

“Hmm, have you eaten?”

Chu Junming paused, then asked another question.

He had just received two photos from Feng Yize, knew she was currently at Yi Pin Xuan Pavilion, eating with Feng Yize and Jian Ye.

“Not yet, I’m looking at the drawings, have you eaten?”

Bai Qingling casually asked.

Behind her, Jiang Qian, who had originally been waiting a few steps away, walked over, Chu Junming didn’t turn around, focused on his call.

Unaware she had approached until her voice sounded, “I’ll go to the lounge room to wait for you.”

She didn’t call his name, it was cold standing outside, Jiang Qian saw that Chu Junming might not finish his call anytime soon.

Thinking of going inside to grab a coat, or wait for him inside.

The young woman’s voice was gentle, with a soft and tender tone due to the cold.

It traveled through the airwaves into Bai Qingling’s ears.

Her eyes flickered with a trace of surprise, considering he just said he had no time, she herself already asked what she needed, so she said calmly, “You go ahead with your tasks, I’ll contact you later.”

“Alright, you eat first.”

After Chu Junming finished speaking, Bai Qingling replied again with a soft “Hmm” and hung up the phone.

He glanced at the call duration on the screen.

Put away the phone, turned around, looked at Jiang Qian standing a couple steps away, the warmth in his eyes was scattered by the chilly wind in the courtyard.

The expression between his brows also faded slightly.

“Let’s talk right here.”

Jiang Qian looked at the indifference in his eyes, her exquisite face turned a shade paler.

A sense of pain stabbed her, she pursed her lips, slightly raised her chin to look at him.

Awkwardly said, “Can we go inside to talk? I’m a bit cold.”

Isn’t Chu Junming supposed to be a gentleman? Why didn’t he notice she was dressed lightly, while he was wrapped in a suit himself?

“…”

Chu Junming didn’t respond.

His tall figure stood on the cobblestone path, not moving.

The meaning was clear, she could either speak here or not at all.

Jiang Qian looked at him, suddenly laughed, a laugh mixed with self-mockery, “Chu Junming, are you afraid I’ll pester you?”

“Miss Jiang, coming from a literary family, wouldn’t do such a thing.”

Chu Junming’s voice was calm like water, difficult to discern whether it was a compliment or criticism.

“Before this, I only heard of one of the Four Young Masters of the Capital, Young Master Chu, being gentlemanly as jade, later Mother invited me to the house as a guest, so I came.”

Jiang Qian’s face showed a faint smile, temporarily took his words as a compliment.

She continued, “Later, Mother showed me your photos, somewhat different from what I heard before, I thought I had a good eye for people, in the photos, you looked quite aloof.”

“But I didn’t expect you to reject so directly, Chu Junming, is there something wrong with me?”

“No, it has nothing to do with you.”

Facing Jiang Qian’s exploration and doubts, Chu Junming’s indifference between his brows didn’t lessen in the slightest for her.

“I have other matters, the driver will take you back shortly.”

“It was Mother who invited me, Chu Junming, isn’t this a bit excessive?”

Jiang Qian endured the grievance and humiliation in her heart, she was invited by his mother.

She couldn’t just leave because of a single sentence from him.

“…”

Chu Junming squinted his eyes, fell silent for a few seconds.

Seemed to be considering.

Jiang Qian bit her lower lip, looked at his eyes filled with grievance and stubbornness.

Just when she thought Chu Junming might change his mind or apologize to her.

She heard him say quite indifferently, “Then let my mom take you back.”
