Chapter 10 This is impossible!
Chapter 10 This is impossible!
This must be... Director Jiang?
Seeing the angry, mature and beautiful woman in front of him, Ye Kai was indeed caught off guard, but his gaze was quickly drawn to her.
Although Jiang Xin was furious, a beautiful woman in anger is still incredibly stunning.
From a certain perspective, although Jiang Xin was nearly forty years old at this time, it was the golden age for her to fully unleash her personal charm. With almond-shaped eyes, peach-blossom cheeks, fiery red lips, and big waves, coupled with her curvaceous figure, she was much more attractive to Rhodium, Cesium, and Beryllium than a naive young girl like Shen Jiayi.
Do not look at what is improper!
Ye Kai quickly shifted his gaze slightly, moving it down from Jiang Xin's face.
Damn it!
That's even more dangerous!
So I couldn't take it anymore even if I went any further!
Finally, he could only stare at the wooden floor beneath Director Jiang's feet, which finally calmed his restless mind and brought his wandering thoughts back to the right track.
"I really envy Shen Jiayi's dad!"
"How could I resist having such a beautiful and elegant wife every day without a strong body?"
Ye Kai's mind was filled with random thoughts.
However, considering that Shen Mingsun and Jiang Xin are both career-oriented individuals—one a respected vice mayor and the other the director of the credit department of a city commercial bank—they are both quite busy with their work, so they probably don't have much time to get together.
Ye Kai had met Jiang Xin before, but as a teenager, he didn't fully appreciate the beauty of a sophisticated and mature woman like her. Later, due to Shen Jiayi's family troubles, he never saw Jiang Xin again. Therefore, the impression she left on Ye Kai was far less impactful than the face-to-face encounter he had now.
"What's wrong?"
"Do I need someone's permission to go home?!"
Jiang Xin's anger gradually subsided as she saw the situation inside the bedroom.
Although it's unclear why a blond-haired man would be in her daughter's bedroom so late at night, the two were neatly dressed and kept a safe distance, so they probably weren't doing anything shady.
Luckily, I got back in time!
Director Jiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
That old Shen, he never does anything all day long, why doesn't he stay home and take good care of his daughter?
Thinking of this, Director Jiang's resentment suddenly shifted to Shen Mingsun, who was thousands of miles away.
"Achoo!"
"Achoo!"
Shen Mingsun, who was celebrating with some subordinates by drinking and having a late-night snack, couldn't help but sneeze several times.
"What are you doing?"
"And you, kid, staying out so late and hanging out with girls, don't you have any sense of boundaries?"
Director Jiang first questioned his daughter, then raised his voice to question Ye Kai, who was standing to the side.
Although she didn't recognize the boy, seeing the school uniform Ye Kai was wearing, she knew that he must be her daughter Shen Jiayi's classmate, and her worries deepened.
As the saying goes, those near the water get the moonlight first, and flowers and trees facing the sun bloom easily in spring.
No matter how much you guard against it, it's hard to guard against a blond-haired guy!
Especially those blond-haired guys who have the advantage of favorable timing and location are even more difficult to guard against.
"Hello, Auntie, I'm Ye Kai, a classmate of Shen Jiayi."
"Today, Shen Jiayi and I were discussing methods for analyzing materials in college entrance exam essays, and we got so engrossed that we forgot the time. I'm so sorry."
Ye Kai took the initiative to admit defeat, explaining his reason for being there in a serious and earnest manner, just like a normal, naive high school student, and sincerely expressing his apology for his mistake.
However, he kept it a secret and didn't dare tell Jiang Xin that he and Shen Jiayi were not only classmates, but also deskmates.
"Analysis of materials for college entrance examination essays?"
Director Jiang was not someone who could be easily fooled. Her gaze swept across the desk and, sure enough, she saw a large pile of mock exam papers for the Chinese subject, as well as handwritten materials that were being discussed separately.
It was clear that the blond guy wasn't lying, and the large bed in the bedroom was neat and tidy, without any signs of being trampled on. I immediately felt much more relaxed.
Looking at Ye Kai again, he felt that the kid wasn't so annoying anymore. Upon closer inspection, he was actually quite handsome, and his hair wasn't yellow. He couldn't help but nod to himself, and the anger he felt earlier subsided.
"Yeah yeah."
"Ye Kai scored 139 points in this mock Chinese exam. I'd like to ask him for advice on writing."
The ancient Greek god of the compass, looking like a startled rabbit, nodded repeatedly in agreement, confirming the claim.
"Is it that amazing?"
Hearing this, Jiang Xin was also taken aback.
Obviously, everyone knows how difficult it is to score 139 points in high school Chinese.
Many people get full marks in math, physics, and chemistry in the college entrance examination, but those who get more than 135 points in Chinese are extremely rare.
After suddenly learning about Ye Kai's strength, Director Jiang's gaze towards him softened considerably, showing not only surprise but also appreciation and anticipation.
Indeed, for positive and motivated parents, academic excellence is always an effective advantage.
Ye Kai breathed a sigh of relief; he had finally managed to get away with the late-night rendezvous.
……
"You mean, your classmate is a charlatan?"
"How is that possible? He's so small!"
Jiang Xin stared at her daughter with a look of suspicion in her eyes.
He's just a high school student of seventeen or eighteen, and he looks quite immature. How could he be associated with the word "charlatan"?
Is it small...?
I'm over 180cm tall!
Ye Kai was very unconvinced and almost revealed his arrogant and unruly demeanor.
"I haven't been able to get through to you on the phone, Mom. Actually, a lot has happened since yesterday..."
Seeing that her mother didn't believe her, Shen Jiayi recounted in detail how Ye Kai had given her the three brocade pouches, and then told her about the situation her father, Shen Mingsun, had encountered.
"Your dad's on TV, and it's on CTV's 7 PM news?!"
Jiang Xin felt like she had missed out on the whole world. All she did was attend a closed training course in the province. How could she have missed so many exciting events?
After the initial shock, Jiang Xin's face was filled with disbelief.
As someone working within the system, Jiang Xin is well aware of the value of the first five minutes of CTV's 7 PM news, especially the full 18 seconds of screen time that Shen Mingsun received.
To put it simply, as long as Shen Mingsun doesn't commit any heinous crimes that would anger both heaven and man, even if he wants to retire, someone will push him to a higher position; advancement is only a matter of time.
Fortunately, modern televisions have a news replay function, so Director Jiang pulled up the 7 p.m. news and carefully watched the first few minutes over and over again.
"What incredible luck your dad had!"
After confirming once again that Shen Mingsun had indeed made a big splash, Jiang Xin finally gave in.
"If it weren't for Ye Kai, my father definitely wouldn't have gone to Beijing, wouldn't have had this opportunity, and wouldn't have gotten such a good chance. What awaited him would have been... well, you know."
Seeing that her mother Jiang Xin had regained her composure, Shen Jiayi took the opportunity to explain the important role Ye Kai had played in this matter.
"He's just a kid, how did he do that?"
Although Jiang Xin accepted the fact that Shen Mingsun was about to rise to prominence, she still found it difficult to understand the value of Ye Kai's existence.
"The second piece of advice he gave me is for you, Mom..."
"I think you should take a serious look at this."
Seeing that Jiang Xin still harbored doubts about Ye Kai, Shen Jiayi handed her the second brocade pouch.
Shen Jiayi had already seen the contents of this book.
She had been unable to contact Jiang Xin before, but now that Director Jiang had gone home, she was left to decide how to handle the situation herself.
"That's impossible!"
After reading the contents of the sticky note with some skepticism, Director Jiang's first reaction was that Ye Kai was talking nonsense.
How could three of her four top lieutenants in the credit department have serious violations of lending regulations or have violated criminal law, and have already been targeted by the internal audit department of the commercial bank?
