Free Web NovelChapter 400: Chapter 229: The First Ingenious Plan for Tourism Promotion
Chen Jincheng watched Xiaoju get into the car, his eyes holding a hint of amusement.
’The moment she got in, she pulled her collar way down. If this isn’t seduction, what is?’
Xiaoju saw his amused expression and was so annoyed she wanted to bite him. But remembering she was here to concede today, she could only say in a sweet, delicate voice, "Cheng, wherever you’re going, I’ll go with you."
As she spoke, she deliberately leaned toward Chen Jincheng. With her collar already pulled down so low, she was practically serving herself up for him to see.
Chen Jincheng glanced down.
Very fair!
And black lace.
It was just the style he liked.
After taking his look, Chen Jincheng spoke with righteous gravity, "Xiaoju, didn’t we make a promise? That once we returned to Coastal City, I wouldn’t have any ideas about you, let alone touch you again. You’re trying to make me break my promise. I’m not that kind of person."
"Cheng, when did you ever promise something like that? I don’t know anything about it," Xiaoju hurriedly denied.
She truly regretted it now. Why did she have to be so stubborn and agree when he made that promise? Because of it, he really hadn’t sought her out since returning to Coastal City.
He hadn’t even helped her film any videos after coming back.
Weren’t all the Miss Cheng girls supposed to film two videos first?
Now, she didn’t even have a second video, to say nothing of the promise he made in Ganjiang City to build her into the number one National Style goddess.
Besides, he had clearly promised to take her to buy clothes with that widow-like aura after Zhu Ling’s project was done. But Zhu Ling’s project was obviously finished, and he seemed to have forgotten the matter, fobbing her off with a video shoot at Radiant Square instead.
Instead, he later helped Wang Qiqi and Little Maru film videos and release songs.
And today, he filmed a video for Yinyin and Ximeng.
It was as if she had been truly forgotten.
Just now, Sister Lan and Nana had even been speculating in the WeChat group that Cheng was no longer helping her film videos and had maybe given up on her.
How could this not make her anxious?
So, the moment she saw Cheng walk out of the company, she immediately followed him.
’Really, if she had another chance, she wouldn’t have been so stubborn back in Ganjiang City.’
She really wanted him to touch her now.
Hearing her words, Chen Jincheng just laughed. "Really? I never told you about that promise? I seem to remember that I did."
"Cheng, you really didn’t. You must be misremembering," Xiaoju pouted, not forgetting to reach out with a fair hand to grab his arm and shake it.
Truly, when an Innate Widow Sacred Body acted cute like this, it was hard to resist.
"Oh, so I didn’t? Then I must have remembered wrong!" Chen Jincheng feigned a sudden realization, but his other hand was already reaching into the girl’s now very airy collar.
Xiaoju let him do as he pleased, a look of delight appearing on her pretty face instead.
’Does this mean we’ve made up and things are back to how they were in Ganjiang City?’
Chen Jincheng, however, took advantage for just a moment before pulling his hand back. After all, he had real business to attend to and no time to waste here. But there was no problem with taking Xiaoju to the promotion association.
In any case, she would be a key player in the ’Hanfu Travel Day’ event. It was time to let people see just how stunning an Innate Widow Sacred Body could be in Hanfu.
Starting the car, he didn’t forget to remind her, "Pull up your collar first. Hopping into your boss’s car out of nowhere to seduce him... as a girl, can’t you be a little more reserved?"
"Oh!" Xiaoju was quite obedient. She tidied up her collar and didn’t forget to ask, "Cheng, what about the things you promised me? When are you taking me to buy clothes? And you still haven’t filmed my second Miss Cheng video."
"I’ll come to your place tonight to film it," Chen Jincheng said with a smile.
Even if she hadn’t pulled this ’honey trap’ stunt, he was planning to help her film after visiting the promotion association anyway. After all, the effects of the Heat Card couldn’t be wasted.
"Okay!" The smile on Xiaoju’s face grew wider.
’I’ll never be stubborn again.’
Then, she remembered Sister Lan and Nana in the WeChat group, suspecting that Cheng had given up on her.
She opened the WeChat group and replied, "Sister Lan, Nana, can you two stop with the wild guesses? I’m this outstanding, and it’s not like he’s blind. How could he possibly give up on me?"
The moment she sent the message, Sister Lan and Nana immediately responded in the group:
Sister Lan: "Xiaoju, for real? Chen Jincheng has filmed two videos for all those other Miss Cheng girls!"
Nana: "Yeah, it’s been so long since he filmed for you. Is it because you’re not being proactive?"
Seeing the two of them doubting her made Xiaoju unhappy. She immediately sent another message: "Nana, you still doubt me? It was obviously me who wanted a break. Becoming so popular all at once was overwhelming. Since when was it him not wanting to film for me?"
"Besides, proactive about what? Am I that kind of person? I’ve said it before, I don’t even fancy Chen Jincheng. I just don’t. It’s even more impossible that I’d be proactive."
Nana: "Really?"
Sister Lan: "Xiaoju, we’re just concerned about you and wanted to help you brainstorm!"
Xiaoju naturally understood, so she took out her phone, filmed a short video of Chen Jincheng driving seriously, and sent it to the group.
At the same time, she sent another message: "See? He begged me all day today to come out and shoot a video. Seeing his sincerity, I finally agreed. You guys can see my second video as a Miss Cheng tomorrow."
The video convinced Sister Lan and Nana:
"Awesome! Our Xiaoju is still the best!"
"Xiaoju, looks like you’ve already got Chen Jincheng wrapped around your finger."
"But of course," Xiaoju replied smugly, seeming to have completely forgotten the vow she just made to never be stubborn again.
