Soon, the bugatti arrived at the back gate of the Beijing Dance Academy.
After getting out of the car, Jiang Cheng arrived at Sister Liu's Malatang, where they had eaten last time.
After Jiang Cheng entered the door, the landlady, Sister Liu, actually remembered him.
Sister Liu, speaking in an authentic Old Beijing accent, said to Jiang Cheng, "Yo, man, long time no see. Your three girlfriends are already over there waiting for you."
Last time when Xu Yan was doing the best friend test on him, she had touched the back of Jiang Cheng's hand, and the landlady had teased him about having 'two girlfriends' back then.
He didn't expect that coming back this time, it would directly become three.
These three were naturally Jiang Churan, Xu Yan, and Shen Shuang.
Hearing this, Jiang Cheng just wanted to shout that this landlady was simply toxic.
Sister Liu's voice was as loud as ever, and as soon as she spoke, everyone in the shop looked at Jiang Cheng in unison.
Naturally, everyone wanted to see who was so well-endowed to be dating three girlfriends at once.
More importantly, he brought all three of them out together.
Fortunately, it was the Qingming Festival, so there weren't many people in the shop. Aside from the table where the three Girls sat, there were only two other tables.
Besides the few Girls at those two tables turning their heads to look at Jiang Cheng, the three Girls also looked at him in unison.
Jiang Cheng took a look and saw that no negative expression had appeared on Jiang Churan's face.
Instead, she was looking at Jiang Cheng with an expression as if she were watching a good show.
Seeing this, Jiang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief.
The main thing was that he and Jiang Churan were already at the stage where they were about to seal the deal. If some misunderstanding arose because of this sentence, wouldn't that be more loss than gain?
But thinking about it another way, if Jiang Churan were to pull a face and turn hostile just because of this one sentence, Jiang Cheng most likely wouldn't stay with her anyway.
That's right, even if her charm reached 96 points, so what?
Jiang Cheng didn't like trouble.
Given his current situation, if he chose a woman without a capacity for tolerance, he'd probably be in constant trouble.
"Sister Liu, you really know how to joke. You saw it last time, I was ordering kidneys by the dozen. My lower back isn't great, I can't handle that much."
Sister Liu laughed loudly. "Is that so? Isn't it because you need them too much that you take them by the dozen? Don't worry, today's kidneys are very fresh, eat a bit more."
Hearing this, Jiang Cheng could only say he was defeated.
There was no way to win a 'racing' match of dirty jokes against an older woman.
They say that nowadays if you tell a dirty joke to a Girl, not only might she not be shy, but she might even come up with an even dirtier one in the blink of an eye.
If young Girls are like that, let alone an older woman at an age where they are as fierce as wolves and tigers.
"Sister Liu, please have mercy. In fact, I only have one girlfriend."
Fortunately, Jiang Churan had already walked over at this time.
Today, she was wearing a light apricot-colored knitted long dress.
The hem of the skirt swayed gently with her steps, outlining a slender but not frail figure.
Her pitch-black long hair wasn't deliberately styled, just loosely tied behind her head. A few stray strands hung on both sides of her cheeks, fluttering slightly when the wind blew, adding a touch of laziness.
She wore no makeup on her face, yet her skin was fair to the point of being nearly transparent. Under the warm yellow lights of the shop, it glowed with a faint porcelain-like sheen.
Her eyebrows were natural willow-leaf brows, neither thick nor thin.
The corners of her eyes slanted slightly upward, yet there was no hint of coquettishness; instead, they carried a distant coolness.
Her lips were a pale cherry pink, and her lip shape was full.
They weren't deliberately pursed, nor were they smiling; they were just naturally closed like that.
As a dance student, Jiang Churan's posture was excellent.
Her pace wasn't fast; every step was taken with composure and lightness, without the slightest hint of haste.
Jiang Churan was truly too beautiful, especially that cool temperament she possessed.
The gazes around that were originally peeking at Jiang Cheng all shifted to her the moment Jiang Churan appeared.
Even Sister Liu, who was teasing Jiang Cheng, unconsciously lowered her voice. She stopped teasing him.
Not having seen Jiang Cheng for a while, Jiang Churan's expression clearly carried a bit of bashfulness.
Pointing to a small vegetable basket placed on the table, she said to Jiang Cheng, "I picked some dishes for you according to your usual taste. They're already there. Take a look and see if there's anything you don't like or want to add."
Jiang Cheng only took a glance; he didn't actually rummage through the ingredients to check if she had really chosen things to his heart's content.
"No need to look, I'll definitely like whatever you choose," Jiang Cheng replied.
It was just a meal of Malatang. If the other person thoughtfully selected the dishes for you in advance and you actually took the basket to be picky, their heart would probably feel a bit cold.
Jiang Cheng naturally wouldn't do such a redundant thing.
Sure enough, seeing Jiang Cheng say that, a hint of warmth appeared on Jiang Churan's cool face.
"Landlady, still make mine spicy."
"No problem."
After settling the dishes, he reached out and took the initiative to pull Jiang Churan's hand, walking toward the table.
Just as they sat down, Shen Shuang glanced at Xu Yan and spoke to Jiang Cheng, "Tsk tsk tsk, Big Boss, tell the truth, were you secretly feeling smug when you heard the landlady say three girlfriends?"
Jiang Cheng raised an eyebrow at the words.
Girl, why are you trying to cause trouble again?
Jiang Cheng's eyes swept up and down over Shen Shuang. "Not at all. I've said it before, I'm a good man. How could such things happen?"
Hearing this, Shen Shuang hummed twice. "I don't believe it. Then what if we all didn't compete or grab and were just well-behaved? What would you think?"
Shen Shuang's words were clearly asked on behalf of Xu Yan.
Seeing Shen Shuang glance at her, Xu Yan pretended not to see and lowered her head to silently play with her phone.
The cream-colored knitted cardigan she was wearing was already soft and form-fitting.
At this moment, the slight movement of hunching her chest made the full curves in front even more obvious.
Meanwhile, Jiang Churan was waiting for Jiang Cheng's answer with a smile in her eyes.
Jiang Cheng naturally didn't fall into Shen Shuang's trap.
From the moment he arrived, Jiang Cheng had been very natural, and his eyes hadn't been deliberately placed on Xu Yan's absurdly large chest under the knitted cardigan.
So if he wasn't a good man, who was?
Jiang Cheng directly refused. "My standards are very high, okay? So I refuse."
"What do you mean? Am I that bad? The people chasing me are also very good, all right?"
Jiang Cheng spread his hands and directly pulled Jiang Churan into his arms. "Who could be as beautiful as my girlfriend?"
Hearing this, Shen Shuang then asked, "If I'm no good, then what about Xu Yan?"
Seeing Shen Shuang point to her again, in order to not make herself look so unnatural...
Xu Yan could only put on a joking expression. "Me too. If you don't mind, I can also be a secondary girlfriend, the kind that doesn't compete or grab and is very well-behaved."
As she spoke, she subconsciously pulled the collar of her cardigan together.
This subtle movement actually made the contours of her chest appear even fuller under the light.
Even Shen Shuang, sitting opposite her, couldn't help but steal a glance.
