The cold-hearted president falls in love with the vengeful princess

Chapter 287 Wife, I'm Afraid My Family Background Is Not Good Enough for You

Shen Jiayi needed to take care of the injury on her forehead. Xia Jinghao said he would not let her go to the hospital to work and asked her to stay in the apartment to take care of the injury. Xu's mother went back to Shen Jiayi's aunt's house the next day. Xia Jinghao drove Xu's mother back the whole way. When Xia Jinghao was about to drive, she quickly grabbed the door handle with both hands. Xia Jinghao lowered the car window. She was stunned, and then said helplessly: "That, Xia Jinghao, don't tell my aunt about my forehead injury, remember!"

Xia Jinghao was slightly startled. He stared at her pale face, the gauze on her forehead, and her frowning brows with mysterious eyes. After a moment, he nodded and said: Okay, I won't say anything, wife, you go up quickly, go up and have a good rest, I'll come over later.

Shen Jiayi obediently made an OK gesture, she stepped aside, looked at him with deep eyes as he slowly closed the car window, and then watched Xia Jinghao's car, which was taking her mother back to her aunt's house, slowly move away from her sight before she turned and left.

It was already half past eleven. Originally, Xu's mother wanted her daughter to stay in the hospital for one night, but Shen Jiayi refused no matter what she said. She insisted on going back to the apartment. Xia Jinghao gave in to her every request and agreed immediately. Xu's mother had no choice but to let her daughter go.

Since she was a child, Shen Jiayi has had her own ideas. No matter who it is, no one can manipulate her ideas. She has her own ideas, and it is impossible for others to persuade her unless she is willing to accept your ideas.

Shen Jiayi was lying on the sofa with her legs raised up and her head resting on the sofa pillow. She was eating fresh, red, plump, round and juicy Dandong strawberries, which Xia Jinghao bought for her at the fresh food supermarket when he got off work yesterday. She had been eating them for the whole afternoon.

It was sweet and sour, juicy when bitten, round, plump and filling. At noon, she just cooked a bowl of buckwheat noodles for herself. The buckwheat was prepared last night and the noodles were eaten at noon today. However, she still felt hungry, so she started to eat strawberries again.

That evening, Xia Jinghao returned to her apartment at 1:30. As soon as he came in, he called Director Xu of Ankang Hospital without saying a word and asked for three days of leave for her. Shen Jiayi looked at him helplessly. She felt dizzy and had a mild concussion, and could not walk around too much.

Therefore, Xia Jinghao also called the dean to ask for leave. When coming out of the study, Shen Jiayi turned her head to look at Xia Jinghao who came out of the study. He walked over, bent down, and held her pale face with both hands. She was breathing shallowly. She sat on the sofa and looked up at him.

His eyes were deep, hers were confused, he smiled, his eyes were as soft as water, he said softly: "Okay, wife, I have asked for three days off for you." Dean Xu didn't say much, he just said three words, "Okay, okay," and said, "So, you should have a good rest and don't think about anything, okay?"

Shen Jiayi stared at his eyes in a daze, her eyes were stunned, and then she nodded and said: OK. She might be really tired, and after sitting on the sofa for a while, she squinted her eyes and fell asleep. Xia Jinghao turned his eyes to look at her, he gently lifted her head, stood up, bent down and picked her up.

Shen Jiayi slept until half past one, then slowly walked downstairs, took some medicine for a mild concussion, and went to the kitchen. As expected, she saw a basket of vegetables on the stove. She walked over and opened the basket, which contained century egg and lean meat porridge, rose cake, and grape toast. She reached out and touched the plate, but it was cold.

She was too lazy to heat the pot, so she put it in the refrigerator, and took out the half-eaten buckwheat noodles from the cupboard and cooked some, which was like brunch together. It was exactly 2:30 in the afternoon when she finished the buckwheat noodles. She walked to the refrigerator door and opened it. There was a box of Dandong strawberries in it. She took it out and was surprised when she saw it.

There were more than 90 strawberries. Shen Jiayi's eyes widened suddenly. Xia Jinghao bought so many strawberries. Was he planning to use the apartment as a strawberry garden? She thought she didn't agree yet.

Shen Jiayi picked up the strawberries again, walked to the living room, lay on the sofa, and ate strawberries. Once she started eating, she couldn't stop. Shen Jiayi reached out and touched the fruit plate. She took the fruit plate on her stomach away, slowly sat up, and glanced at the fruit plate on the sofa. There were still strawberries in it.

She curled her lips and said: Xia Jinghao, he bought so much at once, really... She took a deep breath, put the fruit plate on the carpet, and lay down on the sofa again. She was so bored and didn't know what to do, so she lay on the sofa to pass the time.

After a while, Shen Jiayi really fell asleep again. She leaned her head to the right, her hands drooped down, her legs spread out, and she fell asleep on the sofa. Xia Jinghao was discussing cooperation at this time. He went to Yundu Hotel early with Chi Che, Secretary Su and other employees in the company.

It was 6 o'clock in the evening when they arrived at Yundu Hotel. At 6:30, the partners arrived at Yundu Hotel. Xia Jinghao stood up calmly and turned to look at the person who pushed the door into the private room. Chi Che walked forward first, followed by Xia Jinghao. Secretary Su and other company employees stood behind him.

At seven o'clock sharp, the social event began. Unexpectedly, the president of the company of this partner was quite difficult to win over. Seeing that the cooperation was about to be signed, he was in high spirits and kept asking to raise the glass to drink with Xia Jinghao. Xia Jinghao's handsome face sank and his brows were furrowed. His fox eyes sank and he glanced coldly at President Yu. He was so drunk that he could hardly walk steadily.

Holding the bottle of wine and about to give it to Xia Jinghao, he raised his hand to check the time on his watch. It was already past seven o'clock. He was worried about Shen Jiayi, afraid that she was still asleep and hadn't gotten up yet. Thinking about finishing the cooperation and socializing quickly and driving to her apartment, Chi Che turned his head and glanced at the president's already cold profile.

He leaned over and said in a low voice: President, what happened to Mr. Yu today? Don't be angry? Xia Jinghao nodded, and he stood up in a good temper. Mr. Yu's face was flushed from drinking, and he said drunkenly: President Xia, you must drink more with me, rest assured that I will cooperate with you, it's the wine, hiccup...

He suddenly burped. Xia Jinghao frowned, his face gloomy, and looked at him coldly. He suppressed his inner anger and said humbly: It's okay, Mr. Yu, since you like drinking so much, I might as well accompany you until you are drunk.

After hearing this, Mr. Yu was delighted. He was drunk and his face turned red. He said drunkenly, "Okay, okay, okay, President Xia is straightforward. Let's get drunk." There was no other way, Xia Jinghao could only bite the bullet and drink with Mr. Yu.

Xia Jinghao wanted this cooperation to end quickly, so he poured a lot of wine for President Yu, who drank it all. Chi Che and Secretary Su also drank. He turned around and saw Chi Che and Secretary Su clinking glasses with red wine, and Xia Jinghao became furious.

What is going on? His assistant and secretary were also drinking. However, this Mr. Yu was also a real drinker. He drank as much as Xia Jinghao forced him to drink, and he drank it all. Slowly, Xia Jinghao's consciousness became a little fuzzy, and he felt his eyes were spinning.

He tugged at his tie irritably, looked at President Yu with a dazed look, and said in a drunken voice: President Yu, cooperation, cooperation, cooperation or not. President Yu was startled when he saw this, then he raised his head and laughed: Of course, hahahahahahahahahaha, President Xia, you wait!

"Well, Xiao Su, Assistant Su Zhen, come here and bring the cooperation letter, pen, seal and stamp." President Yu turned his head to look at Su Zhen who was sitting in the corner behind him. He raised his hand and waved. Su Zhen was slightly startled, quickly stood up and walked over quickly.

Mr. Yu's assistant handed the cooperation letter, pen and stamp to Xia Jinghao. Xia Jinghao took it with one hand and put it on the table. He took the pen, but because he drank too much, his head was a little dizzy and he couldn't see the words clearly. He picked up the cooperation letter, but he didn't stand firmly and sat down on the chair.

The cooperation letter was covering his face. When President Yu saw it, he laughed wildly and said, "Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha, President Xia, how did the cooperation letter get on your face? Are you okay?" President Yu reached out and took the cooperation letter covering his face and put it on the table.

Xia Jinghao regained consciousness instantly. He opened his eyes wide, looked down, and turned to look at President Yu. He was drunk and unconscious. He held the table with both hands, and his shoulders were supported by his assistant. Xia Jinghao picked up the pen on the table, opened the cooperation book, and started to read it.

After a while, his name was finally signed on the cooperation agreement, and he also stamped it himself. This was a land cooperation case. The president of Yu Group wanted a piece of land from Xia Group. Xia Jinghao would build the vacant land into a club, and President Yu wanted him to use this land as a bar. The amount of the cooperation money was 15 million.

After signing the cooperation agreement, Xia Jinghao finally breathed a sigh of relief. As for President Yu, after Xia Jinghao signed the cooperation agreement, he turned around and saw that President Yu and his assistant had fallen on the carpet in the private room. What was even more worrying for Xia Jinghao was that his assistant was also drunk and fell on the table.

He raised his eyes and glanced at the secretary. Su Yunxi's face was flushed, her head was supported by her hands, and her eyes were closed. She was also drunk. Xia Jinghao's face suddenly turned dark with anger. His mind was suddenly cleared up by these two people. He shouted angrily: You two, are you here to help, or to irritate me, Chi Che, Secretary Su.

The two had already drunk too much to be conscious, and Xia Jinghao even had the urge to hit someone. He raised his hand and looked at his watch again. It was already past eight o'clock. He didn't know if his wife had made dinner for herself or was still in bed and hadn't woken up yet... Xia Jinghao held his forehead with his hand as he felt a headache.

The living room was pitch black. Shen Jiayi was still asleep and hadn't woken up yet. She was still sleeping on the sofa. It was dark outside and the living room of the apartment was as dark as a cave. She had changed her sleeping position several times, but she didn't show any intention of waking up.

At Yundu Hotel, Xia Jinghao frowned and looked around. The rest of the company's employees were drunk and lying on the tables, as were his assistants and secretaries. He was the only one who was still slightly conscious. But when he was asked how to leave, he took out his cell phone and dialed Shen Jiayi's number.

The cell phone rang on her bed in the bedroom. The screen was on. Xia Jinghao heard the beeping sound on the phone, but didn't hear the connection. His heart skipped a beat. He stood up from the chair and was about to leave, but he paused and turned to look behind him.

Finally, Mr. Yu's assistant Su Zhen and Xia Jinghao worked together to help Mr. Yu, Secretary Su and Chi Che out of the private room and walk to the hotel room. In the elevator, Mr. Yu was drunk and staggering, and he couldn't even stand steadily. He leaned on his assistant's shoulder. Xia Jinghao saw it, he glanced at his assistant, his eyes sank, and said lightly: Put his arms on my shoulders!

Assistant Yu was stunned. He stared at the tall, handsome, and imposing President Xia. He frowned and said tremblingly: This is not good, President Xia, I can do it, President Xia. Xia Jinghao's face turned cold and his fox eyes sank. Su Zhen's legs softened when he saw it, and he nodded.

It was past ten o'clock. President Yu, Su Yunxi, Chi Che and the rest of the Xia Group's employees were staying in the hotel rooms, each in their own room. Because they were all too drunk, they couldn't be woken up by shouting or pushing. Xia Jinghao was about to walk out of the hotel suite when he smelled alcohol on his shoulder and turned to go to the bathroom.

In the bathroom, he washed his shoulders until they were red. He stopped only when he smelled no more alcohol. Then he quickly washed his whole body. After finishing his shower, he walked out of the bathroom and raised his hand to check the time. It was almost twelve o'clock. Xia Jinghao clenched his fists in anger and strode into the room.

Seeing Chi Che sleeping on the big bed, he walked over, pulled him up, carried him into the bathroom and gave him another bath. After helping him take a bath, he helped him back to bed. Xia Jinghao sighed helplessly, his eyes lowered, looking at Chi Che in a bathrobe with a heavy gaze, frowned and said: At the critical moment, I still have to act alone. What assistant, he is of no use once I drink.

He washed Chi Che's suit again, then used a hair dryer to blow dry it several times and put it on the balcony of the hotel to dry before leaving the hotel room. Coming out of the Yundu Hotel, Xia Jinghao quickly walked towards the underground garage. He stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, turned the steering wheel, started the car, and the Maybach quickly flew out of the basement.

Shen Jiayi was awakened by hunger. Her stomach suddenly growled. She suddenly opened her eyes and sat up. Her mind was in a mess. She looked around, closed her eyes, and then her pupils slowly widened. Why was the living room dark? She got off the sofa in the dark and stepped barefoot on the ground.
