Thinking about this, Jiang Dongling suddenly panicked. How had he not thought about this before? After being domineering for so many years, he had offended countless people. He wanted everyone to know that Guo’er was his heart and soul, not to make her a target!
With this thought, his idea of hosting a grand banquet immediately halved. Jiang Dongling hugged her tightly, his voice muffled: “Guo’er, I’ll arrange more people to protect you later, okay?”
“What’s wrong?” Chen Jing didn’t know what he was thinking. Seeing his sudden low mood, she patted his back and softly comforted: “Dongling, you can tell me if something’s on your mind.”
Jiang Dongling’s heart calmed slightly, and he nodded without speaking.
Chen Jing then asked, “So, do you agree to my two conditions?”
Jiang Dongling finally agreed.
The wedding could be simple, but these two conditions were non-negotiable. Guo’er had been struggling with them for so long. If he didn’t agree, she would definitely be very disappointed.
He didn’t want to see her disappointed.
Chen Jing’s smile deepened. She shook his shoulder: “Then let’s go now and do today’s good deed, okay?”
Jiang Dongling was helpless and could only carry her out. When he reached the door, he suddenly stopped and turned back.
Chen Jing asked, “What’s wrong? Are you having second thoughts?”
Jiang Dongling gently placed her on the bed, smiling: “You just got up, haven’t washed your face, and your clothes aren’t properly on. Going out like this, aren’t you afraid others will laugh at you?”
Only then did Chen Jing realize she wasn’t even wearing shoes or socks. Embarrassed, she hurried to grab the clothes hanging by the bed.
Jiang Dongling pressed her down, kissed her lips, and said softly: “No rush, I’ll help you.”
Outside, the wind and snow were raging, much colder than inside. Jiang Dongling found a fox fur cloak and insisted on putting it on her.
Though she had seen such people before, this was the first time she was so stunned.
“Do I look good?” Jiang Dongling’s smile was impossible to hide. Deep down, he suspected that when Guo’er said she didn’t love him, she might just be saying it. Chen Jing came back to her senses and laughed, nodding: “You look pretty good.”
