However, would Jian Changsheng let the Jian Group withdraw from the bidding because of this?

Obviously not!

The reason was simple. They divided the bidding for this government project into three rounds. This was only the first round. If the Jian Group withdrew from the bidding now, and East Sea Real Estate was eliminated in the first round, there would be no point in Jian Changsheng doing this.

Therefore, even if he wanted to fulfill his daughter’s wish, Jian Changsheng knew he couldn’t be rash, let alone impulsive. Even if he planned to withdraw, he wouldn’t do so in the first round.

Jian Changsheng naturally wouldn’t tell anyone about these psychological activities. He only calculated in his heart and continued to look at Han Wenjing’s bid.

Jian Changsheng was focused. At this moment, Han Wenjing’s gaze was drilled unto Jian Changsheng.

She had admired the CEO for a long time, but she could only suppress this admiration in her heart because she knew the CEO was a married man with two children.

Everyone in the company knew that the CEO’s wife was gentle and virtuous. She came from a scholarly family in the capital and was a match made in heaven with the CEO.

Therefore, Han Wenjing tried her best to control her admiration for Jian Changsheng. However, Jian Changsheng was too charming, so every time she was alone with him, Han Wenjing couldn’t help but focus on him.

“It’s written very well. There shouldn’t be a problem with the first round of bidding.” Jian Changsheng glanced at it and knew that Han Wenjing had put in a lot of effort into this bid.

This voice shocked Han Wenjing so much that she quickly came back to her senses. She raised her hand to push the glasses on her nose bridge to hide the liveliness in her eyes.

Han Wenjing reached out to take the document and said seriously, “If there’s no problem, I’ll hand over the bid.”

“Alright.” Jian Changsheng nodded. “Go and have lunch!”

Han Wenjing turned around and walked out of the CEO’s office. She leaned against the wall and couldn’t help but take a deep breath. Then, a trace of loneliness filled her eyes. If only… he wasn’t married.

Jian Ai liked to eat the dumplings her mother made the most. Before they were out of the pot, she couldn’t wait to run into the kitchen.

“Mom, it’s almost done, right?” Jian Ai looked at the water in the pot that had yet to boil. Then, she looked at Wang Yunmei’s beautifully wrapped dumplings.

When Wang Yunmei saw her daughter like this, she couldn’t help but purse her lips and smile. “I’ll be right there. It’ll only take two minutes to cook the dumplings. You’re hungry, right?”

Jian Ai nodded. “I have eaten nothing today. When I heard about the dumplings, I was immediately hungry.”

Jian Ai couldn’t help but ask, “Where’s my uncle?”

During the day, Wang Yunmei and Jian Yu had to go to work, and Jiachi had to go to school. Only Wang Yunmei and Yao Feng were at home. However, with such a big commotion in the living room, Yao Feng didn’t come out.

When Wang Yunmei heard this, she said, “He went to North City. An elder at home is sick. He went back to look.”

Yao Feng was from the North City District of Baiyun City. His parents and relatives lived in the relatively remote district of North City. In the entire family, only Yao Feng led a good life with Jian Ai’s help. The rest of his family lived relatively poor.

Since it was her uncle’s family matter, Jian Ai didn’t ask further. “I’ll take out the bowls and chopsticks first.”

As soon as the steaming dumplings were served, Jian Ai’s eyes widened. Who knew how much she had missed these when she was in Italy? She immediately picked one up and stuffed it into her mouth without even dipping with vinegar.

The hot dumplings scalded Jian Ai until her expression twisted, but she couldn’t withstand this delicious moment.

Ji Haoyu looked at her in amusement from the side. Seeing this, he couldn’t help but quickly say, “Slow down. No one is snatching it from you!”

Wang Yunmei also smiled helplessly and said, “It’s the same as when you were young. You like to eat hot dumplings.”

“It’s so delicious, Mom!” Jian Ai sighed, and her starry eyes narrowed into a line of satisfaction.

“Eat more if it’s delicious!” Wang Yunmei smiled and didn’t forget to call out to Ji Haoyu. “Haoyu, eat more too. Don’t stand on ceremony!”

Ji Haoyu naturally would not stand on ceremony because he had to admit that Wang Yunmei’s culinary skills were indeed good. The dumplings she made were much more delicious than the ones in the restaurant outside. They also tasted like home!

Most importantly, Jian Ai was beside him. As long as he saw her, his mood would improve.

During the meal, Wang Yunmei suddenly said, “After dinner, I have to go to the new house. The renovation is almost done. I’ll go look. Your Uncle Wu has been watching over it these days.”

“I’ll go with you, Mom,” Jian Ai quickly said.

She still had a gym that was under renovation. It had been a long time since she last went over to look. Since she had nothing on today, she accompanied her mother.

When Wang Yunmei heard this, she blurted out, “Aren’t you going out to play with Haoyu in the afternoon?”

Wang Yunmei meant nothing else. She just felt that since the two of them were friends and they met at home today, wouldn’t it be logical for them to go out for a walk in the afternoon?!

Jian Ai was stunned. She looked at Ji Haoyu. She still had to accompany him out to play? Why didn’t she know that there was such a schedule?

Fortunately, Ji Haoyu was the first to speak. “No, Auntie. I have to go to the corporation in the afternoon. Let Xiao Ai accompany you to your new house. I don’t have time to accompany her!”

Ji Haoyu did not stand on ceremony anymore. If he had time, he could not wait to play with Jian Ai. However, the corporation had a very important board meeting in the afternoon, so he had to go.

Hearing that Ji Haoyu had something on at the corporation, Wang Yunmei nodded. “Oh, okay. If Haoyu doesn’t have time, Xiao Ai will accompany me.”

Jian Ai: “…”

Why did it sound weird to her? Her mother and Ji Haoyu kicked her around like a ball.

When Ji Haoyu saw Jian Ai’s animated expression, he couldn’t help but tease, “Why? Do you want me to go out with you? I can cancel the corporation matter.”

Jian Ai rolled her eyes at him without hesitation. “You’re overthinking.”

Ji Haoyu was not angry. Instead, the smile on his face deepened.

After eating the dumplings, Ji Haoyu prepared to take his leave. Jian Ai lay on the sofa with her stomach raised. It was obvious that she had no intention of standing up to send him off.

Unexpectedly, Wang Yunmei walked out of the kitchen and looked at Ji Haoyu. “Haoyu is leaving? Drive slowly. Tell Auntie what you want to eat next time. Auntie will cook for you.”

“Alright, thank you, Auntie!” Ji Haoyu answered obediently.

Wang Yunmei looked at Jian Ai and called out, “Xiao Ai, go down and send Haoyu off. Quickly.”

Jian Ai: “…”

She wanted to say that he wouldn’t get lost, so why did she have to send him off?

The most infuriating thing was that Ji Haoyu stood upright at the door after dressing up. He did not open the door, as if saying, “Hurry up. I’ll wait for you.”
