Soon, Jiang Cheng took Chen Xueer into the bentley continental.
The truck driver, who had been slightly impatient waiting, immediately smiled and said it was fine the moment he saw Jiang Cheng.
Unlike the lively journey there, the ride back with Chen Xueer was somewhat awkward for the two of them.
Chen Xueer fiddled with the seatbelt across her chest, her expression a little unnatural.
After secretly glancing at Jiang Cheng and seeing that he wasn't speaking,
Chen Xueer adjusted her expression and couldn't help but speak first.
"Chairman Jiang, was that girl just now your girlfriend?"
Jiang Cheng knew Chen Xueer would ask this question sooner or later.
And he had no intention of equivocating.
He glanced at Chen Xueer, then said frankly, "I guess so..."
A bitter feeling immediately rose in Chen Xueer's heart upon hearing this.
But she quickly realized something was off with his words.
"Guess so? What does that mean? And did you break up with that girl from last time?"
Chen Xueer suddenly brought up another woman, and Jiang Cheng's mind momentarily drew a blank. He asked, confused, "Which girl?"
"The girl who got out of your car when I was waiting for you downstairs at the apartment building before the party last time. Oh, and the other girl you were holding when you got into the car after the party ended."
Chen Xueer's voice carried a hint of grievance and dissatisfaction.
She didn't know why she cared so much about Jiang Cheng's romantic life, but she just couldn't control her emotions.
Jiang Cheng thought back.
The people Chen Xueer was referring to should be Xia Meng and Wang Yuyan.
"No... we didn't break up."
As Jiang Cheng finished speaking, Chen Xueer's expression, which she had been deliberately keeping calm, instantly turned to one of disbelief.
She couldn't help but frown, "But you were just kissing and hugging that girl on the street."
Seeing Chen Xueer say this, Jiang Cheng, though not flustered at all, still awkwardly rubbed his nose.
"Is there... any necessary connection between these two things?"
Chen Xueer was even more incredulous, "What do you mean by that? Then what's your relationship with those two girls in Modu?"
"My relationship with them depends on their own thoughts. Whatever they consider me to be, that's what I am."
Jiang Cheng's tone was very calm.
Calm, yet with a hint of indifference.
As if what he was saying was perfectly normal.
"What do you mean? Do you mean you don't care? Or you don't want to take responsibility? What kind of relationship is this exactly?"
Chen Xueer felt that the way Jiang Cheng had embraced Xiao Xia on the street just now didn't look like a money-based transaction at all, but rather like ordinary lovers.
She couldn't help but ask again, "Are you in a financial relationship, or boyfriend-girlfriend, or just friends with benefits...?"
Jiang Cheng didn't rush to answer Chen Xueer, but instead opened the Interpersonal Relationship Scanning System and took a look.
[Name: Chen Xueer]
[Age: 26 years old]
[Height: 168 cm]
[Looks: 92]
[Figure: 94]
[Privacy: 0]
[favorability value: 88]
[Loyalty: 120 (Absolute Loyalty)]
Jiang Cheng raised an eyebrow.
Looking at the favorability value that had only dropped slightly, he was a little surprised.
He had originally thought that after a scene like that just now, Chen Xueer's favorability value would drop significantly.
Jiang Cheng shrugged, "I said, our relationship depends on them. If they think it's a financial relationship, then it's a financial relationship. If they think it's a love relationship, then it's a love relationship."
Anyway, I provide the money, you provide the person.
Whether you want to talk about money or love, it's all fine.
But the premise is cooperation and obedience.
As Jiang Cheng finished speaking, Chen Xueer's expression grew even uglier.
She said with a slightly sarcastic tone, "Chairman Jiang's bottom line is quite flexible, isn't it?"
"Yes, that's a very vivid description."
Chen Xueer's mouth was slightly agape, and she said, a little speechless, "You... you've pushed all the choices onto others, but you don't want to take responsibility yourself. Isn't that the behavior of a scumbag?"
Jiang Cheng helplessly rubbed his nose.
He knew Chen Xueer didn't like what he said, or rather, no woman would like it.
But things were already like this, so it was better to be frank. Besides, he wasn't some philandering scumbag; he was just making a mistake that all men make... He glanced at the traffic light countdown and said, "What are you talking about? I'm a perfectly decent man."
Chen Xueer immediately asked, "Are you dating both of them at the same time? Do they know about each other?"
This question momentarily plunged Jiang Cheng into silence.
Wang Yuyan naturally didn't know about Xiao Xia's existence.
After all, one was in Modu and one was in Chengdu, and he didn't need to report to them how many women he had around him.
Most importantly, they probably wouldn't ask proactively.
With both of them, Jiang Cheng had made his intentions clear from the start, and Wang Yuyan had gotten together with him even knowing his specific situation.
Normally, everyone maintained a very decent tacit understanding.
No one would take the initiative to break this balance.
Jiang Cheng felt that between them, when that balance was broken one day, it would definitely be when the other party no longer wanted to stay by Jiang Cheng's side.
Thinking this, Jiang Cheng shook his head, "They probably don't know."
"So they're both kept in the dark?"
"That's not quite right. It's more that they both have a tacit understanding. Before getting with me, they knew that I might not only have them as women by my side."
After Jiang Cheng finished speaking, Chen Xueer immediately understood.
But understanding was one thing; her gaze towards Jiang Cheng instantly became very different.
Jiang Cheng could even feel her favorability value rapidly declining.
Although it didn't fall into negative numbers, it dropped directly from 88 points to 65 points.
This score was even lower than when she first met Jiang Cheng.
Fortunately, her loyalty hadn't changed at all, still at 120 points.
This surprised Jiang Cheng greatly.
He really couldn't figure out how the system operated.
Logically, if Chen Xueer's favorability value towards him was low, her loyalty should also decrease.
But for her to remain so loyal while her favorability value dropped was indeed somewhat illogical.
However, Jiang Cheng wasn't too concerned about this.
Even if Chen Xueer lost interest in him because of this, he wouldn't care.
As long as her loyalty to him remained, that was enough.
As for other aspects, he could only say that having them was better, but not having them was also acceptable.
Given his current situation, even if he lost Chen Xueer, there would still be Li Xueer, Lin Xueer, and Zhao Xueer...
