At the moment, in President Jiang’s heart, there was nothing more important than Xia Xiaowan’s matter. He thought about what she was thinking and was anxious about what concerned her. So when Xia Xiaowan said that she did not know what to give to a child as a gift in Shao Shoushou’s one-month-old banquet, he remembered it in his heart. After going back, he searched for information online for a long time. In the end, he chose jade because jade was gentle and could relieve uneasiness of body and mind and could ward off evil spirits. The mineral elements in the jade were also good for the human body. Moreover, giving the jade as a gift was neither tacky nor disgraced.

For this reason, he spent a few days selecting a high-quality mutton-fat jade tablet and wanted Xia Xiaowan to give it as a gift.

Now, this warm mutton-fat jade tablet was in his hands. It was not difficult for him to find such a jade tablet. What was difficult was how to give it to Xia Xiaowan.

Because of this, he racked his brain. He wanted to call her, but he was afraid that she would not answer. So he sent a text message, which said: I have something good here, are you interested in taking a look? After sending the message, he regretted it. When such a message was received, Xia Xiaowan would surely ignore it. It could not attract her interest at all! If he asked someone to bring it to her, he would not be satisfied. After all, he had put in a lot of effort and always had the intention to show off his contribution.

For this matter, President Jiang hesitated for a long time but still could not come up with a plan. In the end, he put the thing into the drawer in distress. Coincidentally, Shen Li came over. Seeing his worried face, Shen Li joked, “President Jiang, you look so serious. Is heaven going to collapse?”

Since Jiang Kaiwei took Shen Li as his love consultant, he naturally did not hide it from Shen Li and roughly told what he tried to do.

Shen Li sat down in the chair. “Hey, I thought it was something important! It turns out like this. It is easy to handle. I’ll give it to her on your behalf. Isn’t this okay?”

Jiang Kaiwei murmured. “It took me so much effort to find it, how couldn’t I even see her?”

He was obviously a domineering and powerful man. But when he was depressed, he was like a child. Shen Li felt funny. Jiang Kaiwei was originally childish. When he was in love, his IQ directly dropped to below zero.

When Jiang Kaiwei saw that Shen Li was laughing so wantonly, he felt a little embarrassed. He glared at Shen Li. “What are you laughing at? What’s so funny?”

“In fact, the most straightforward way is,” Shen Li suddenly paused, deliberately keeping Jiang Kaiwei in suspense.

Although Jiang Kaiwei looked at him expectantly, Shen Li just did not say anything. Jiang Kaiwei waited for a long time and finally could not help but pick up the folder on the table and slap him with it. “Are you going to say it or not?”

“Do you need me to say that?” Shen Li took it for granted. “Call her directly!”

“I’m afraid she won’t answer my call.”

“At this moment, you should show some dominance.” Shen Li began to teach him. “You’ve been laying the groundwork for so long, and you’ve successfully entered her life. So she won’t be surprised when she receives your call. Maybe because she is reserved, she won’t answer it. But you have to be patient and keep calling her until she answers the call.”

Jiang Kaiwei said hesitantly, “Is that okay? Won’t she be upset? This may damage her good impression of me I built a while ago.”

Shen Li laughed. “In fact, she doesn’t have a good impression of you. But let me tell you, women like gentlemen who are patient, considerate, and humorous. But they also want them to be occasionally a little overbearing and naughty. So, even if she may be annoyed this time, you should give it a try.”

Jiang Kaiwei still felt uneasy. “Is it really okay?”

“Go ahead and do it, young man!” Shen Li took out a cigarette box and threw one cigarette at Jiang Kaiwei. “The moment of reconciliation is coming!”

Jiang Kaiwei narrowed his eyes and slowly nodded. However, he failed to notice Shen Li’s hidden evil smile. In fact, Shen Li did not have any bad intentions. It was just that Jiang Kaiwei had been sending text messages for so long, but Xia Xiaowan still ignored him. Shen Li felt that it may not work if Jiang Kaiwei went on like this. Why not let him take the initiative to come to her and see how the effect was? But to be honest, Shen Li was completely uncertain about what would happen next.

Since Jiang Kaiwei had made his decision, he no longer felt worried. When night fell, he and Shen Li had dinner outside. Then he returned home and took a shower first. He went to pick out clothes in the wardrobe. This took him about forty minutes. Then he spent another forty minutes drying his hair and practicing his speech in front of the mirror. By the time he went out confidently, it was already two hours later.

On his way, his heart was surging. Although he was only going to give something to her, it was still considered a proper meeting between them. In Jiang Kaiwei’s heart, it was naturally extraordinary.

He was in a good mood. He hummed along with the song the CD player played in the car. In fact, he didn’t know what the singer was singing. He just wanted to express his happy mood. He deliberately drove a small, open sports car, thinking that it would be even better if he could take the opportunity to ask Xia Xiaowan to go for a drive with him!

The night wind was gentle. Xia Xiaowan wore a white dress and her hair was blown up by the wind. She blinked her bright eyes and looked at him with a charming smile. He looked straight ahead as if he was concentrating on driving. In fact, he was a little struggling in his heart. He had watched a foreign love movie about male and female protagonists driving on the road at night. The female protagonist was chatting and laughing along the way. The male protagonist looked straight ahead. But he was actually absent-minded. Finally, he stepped on the brakes and suddenly kissed the female protagonist.

He was not interested in this kind of movie, and he did not know why he suddenly thought of that scene. In his heart, he actually wanted to copy what they did. But he was very nervous. His hands were sweating as he held the steering wheel, and his body was stiff. He thought about it countless times, and gave up countless times. He had never been an indecisive person, but that night really made him suffer.

In the end, he got angry about himself as usual and sent Xia Xiaowan home with a straight face. When Xia Xiaowan said goodbye to him, she looked a little expectant and shy. He knew it clearly, but he pretended not to understand. He even pushed her impatiently. “It’s late. Hurry up and go in. What are you dawdling for? I’m leaving.”

Jiang Kaiwei recalled the past. He tapped his fingers on the steering wheel and sighed. At that time, he clearly wanted to love her, but he always pushed her away. Because he was afraid of hurting his self-esteem. He was even more afraid of losing her. If he had the same opportunity again, he would definitely not miss it.

The sports car deftly moved on the road. He did not deliberately overtake other cars, but it didn’t take him long to arrive at Xia Xiaowan’s house. He did not dare to get too close and parked the car at the intersection. Then he called Xia Xiaowan. Sure enough, she did not answer.

He remembered Shen Li’s words and did not give up. He called again. But she still did not answer. He called until the fourth time. Xia Xiaowan finally picked up the phone and said angrily, “What are you doing? I don’t even answer your call. Why do you still call me?”

He tried to make himself appear calm. “Come out for a moment. I have something to tell you.”

“I’m not interested in it.” Xia Xiaowan said faintly, “I’m hanging up.”

“Don’t, don’t, don’t,” He quickly stopped her. “I really have something to tell you, something important.”

“Then say it over the phone.” Xia Xiaowan told him frankly, “I don’t want to see you.”

These words hurt President Jiang a little. But he held on firmly and said in a sincere tone, “I have something to give you. Come out, please. It will only take you a few minutes.”

Xia Xiaowan directly said, “I don’t want it.”

Jiang Kaiwei said patiently, “How could you reject it even if you don’t know what it is?”

“No matter what it is, I don’t want it!”

Her words were really getting more and more hurtful, arousing the bad elements in Jiang Kaiwei’s personality. Then his tone became a little harder. “I spent so much effort to get it, how could you dismiss me with just a sentence?”

Xia Xiaowan laughed. “Are you insane? Are you going to give it to me forcibly even if I don’t want it?”

Jiang Kaiwei said unyieldingly, “Yes, that’s what I meant. Come out quickly. I’m at your door. If you don’t believe me, come to the window and see.”

After that, he hung up the phone and drove the car directly to the entrance of the Xia family. With the snow-white light, he believed that Xia Xiaowan would definitely see him.

Xia Xiaowan indeed saw him. She secretly complained in her heart. She did not expect that Jiang Kaiwei really dared to come. If Xia Nanze saw him, they would fight again. She had no choice but to call him. She deliberately said coldly, “Jiang Kaiwei, what are you trying to do? Do you think this is not enough? Get lost before my brother finds you!”

Jiang Kaiwei answered, like a dead mouse which felt no cold, “So what if your brother sees met? At worst, he’ll beat me up again!”

He was behaving like a rogue!

Xia Xiaowan got angry and threatened him, “Do you want to be beaten up? Fine, just wait. I will call my brother out.” She thought that Jiang Kaiwei will just leave and not make a big deal out of it. After all, he always acted carefully in front of her, afraid of offending her.

However, Jiang Kaiwei answered on the phone, “Alright, I’ll wait.”

Xia Xiaowan was so angry that she hung up the phone. However, the bright light at the big iron gate remained lit. If this continued, it would be discovered by her family sooner or later. Xia Xiaowan had no choice but to quietly go downstairs. Fortunately, at this time, her parents were in their room, and Xia Nanze did not come back. What she was most afraid of was that Xia Nanze came back and happened to meet Jiang Kaiwei. As soon as these two men met, things would definitely get out of hand.

She hurriedly ran to the door. She used her hand to block it and narrowed her eyes as the car light was a bit dazzling. Behind the bright light, there was a man leaning against the car door. The hair on his forehead fluttered slightly as the wind blew. She saw the man with one hand in the pocket of his pants while the other hand holding a cigarette. Without looking at his face, she felt that he was very handsome.

Xia Xiaowan was in a trance for a moment. It was as if she saw the handsome young man back then leaning against the motorcycle. His hair was flying, and his hand was holding a cigarette. The setting sun slowly fell behind him. In the glow of the sky, he was so handsome that she wanted to scream. It was at that moment that she instantly fell in love with him.

Later, she read words in a magazine that described love: it only took a second to fall in love with a person, but it would take a lifetime to forget him. She felt that it was talking about her.

She composed herself and slowly walked over, her tone mocking, “I’m here. Turn off the car lights. Aren’t you afraid that the electricity will run out?”

Jiang Kaiwei threw away the cigarette butt and silently turned off the car lights. He took two steps toward her. When the light got dimmed, the man was already in front of her. Xia Xiaowan was shocked and unconsciously took two steps back.
