Jiang Chuancheng put down the phone, his heart beating so fast that it seemed like it was about to jump out.
He was a little nervous and swallowed, feeling his throat tighten and a little itchy.
"Inheritance, what did your father say, will you come back?"
Li Zhujin's voice came from the kitchen. Jiang Chuancheng was a little annoyed. He shouldn't have hung up the phone. He should have asked what was going on.
"He...he's not here."
Li Yuejin didn't think much about it. Seeing that Jiang Chuancheng looked listless, she thought he was still thinking about joining the army, so she quickly changed the subject.
"You're not here? If you're not here, call me later. Don't just stand there. Help mom chop the stuffing. We'll make some dumplings later."
"Oh, I know."
Jiang Chuanchuan wondered if he had done something wrong. He shouldn't have hung up the phone so hastily. He should have asked what was going on.
After all, the call was from Jiang Ci's office, so anyone could have answered it. It's normal for a colleague to help answer it, right?
Forget it, I’ll call another one later.
Jiang Chuancheng kept this matter to himself and didn't say anything. It wasn't a big deal anyway!
On the other end, Li Meilan heard the busy tone coming from the receiver and hung up the phone with some displeasure.
She guessed that the call was from Jiang Ci's family, and was just trying to get closer to them, but she didn't expect the other party to be so rude and hung up the phone directly.
She didn't say anything she shouldn't have, did she?
Li Meilan thought about it and decided that she didn’t say anything anyway. If there was a misunderstanding, that would be even better because it would save her trouble.
Just at this time, Jiang Ci just finished class. He went back to the office and pushed the door open, just in time to see Li Meilan.
He thought he had gone to the wrong place, but when he looked up at the door number, he saw that it was his office.
"Teacher Li, why are you here?"
"Oh, your phone kept ringing just now. I saw that the door was not locked, so I came over to answer it for you, but the person on the other end didn't say anything and just hung up."
"Oh." Jiang Ci put down his lesson plan and prepared to work.
Li Meilan didn't leave yet, Jiang Ci looked up at her, "Anything else?"
"No, it's okay. Teacher Jiang, you are busy."
Li Meilan left Jiang Ci's office and returned to her office. She was holding a book and reading for a long time without reading a single word.
Although she and Jiang Ci were both university teachers, their treatments were completely different. She shared an office with four other teachers, while Jiang Ci had a single room and a dedicated phone.
All signs indicate that Jiang Ci is not an ordinary person, otherwise, why would Haida treat him with such courtesy?
Although the situation for teachers is not very good now, it is not as bad as in previous years. Everything is getting better, and many people are slowly recovering their reputation.
There are no formal classes at the Ocean University, but there are many students sent here for further studies, including workers, peasants and soldiers, so the school is not shut down.
The treatment of employees at Tianning Ocean University is quite good. Although Jiang Ci is a temporary substitute teacher, his level has been recognized by the school. Maybe he will stay in the school and become a formal teacher in the future?
It's very possible.
When Li Meilan thought of this, her mind turned away again.
Teacher Jiang is single, and her husband just happened to be dead. I heard that he only has one daughter who is already married. So, if the two of them get to know each other more, will I have a chance...
Just as I was thinking about it, the phone next door rang again.
Jiang Ci picked up the phone and burst into laughter, not knowing what good news he had received.
He laughed heartily and looked very happy, and his laughter was filled with ease and joy.
Li Meilan heard Jiang Ci say that he would go home now.
A thought was growing wildly in her mind, and when she heard the sound of the door of the office next door closing, she could no longer stop thinking about it.
Li Meilan didn't say hello to other teachers and hurried out.
She followed Jiang Ci in a hurry, afraid of losing him.
This teacher Jiang is elusive. He usually lives in the dormitory and no one knows where his home is.
Li Meilan just wanted to go over and take a look to see where Jiang Ci lived. This is also a reflection of economic strength.
To be honest, Jiang Ci has an outstanding appearance and a good salary. It would be even better if his family conditions were not bad.
She followed Jiang Ci out of the school and onto the bus with him.
Jiang Ci was usually so absorbed in teaching that he didn't even notice that Li Meilan got on the same bus with him.
If the bus had to reverse halfway, he would get off at the stop. While waiting for the bus, he would take out the book in his pocket and glance at it from time to time.
They took the second bus for a full half hour, and the two got off one after the other.
Jiang Ci lowered his head and walked into the courtyard, while Li Meilan hid behind an electric pole and secretly watched him enter the courtyard unimpeded.
My goodness!
Li Meilan's eyes widened. She finally understood why Haida was so polite and courteous to Jiang Ci.
On the one hand, Jiang Ci is indeed very capable in academics, and if you want to keep him at Ocean University, you have to show some sincerity.
On the other hand, Jiang Ci lives in the compound!
Even if this is not his home, it must be his parents' home.
How old is Jiang Ci? His parents must be in their seventies or eighties? What does it mean that they can still live in a military compound at this age?
He is in a high position and has great power.
Li Meilan's eyes sparkled, as if she had seen the beautiful life that belonged to her.
If she could marry Jiang Ci, she wouldn't have to worry about the rest of her life. Teacher Jiang looked very dull. If...
Li Meilan's heart was beating fast. She was afraid that others would find her, so she left quickly.
On the way back, she had only one thought in her mind, and that was to win Jiang Ci. Only by marrying her could she get rid of her previous life and give her four children a good life.
However, she would not treat Jiang Ci unfairly. As long as he helped her raise the children, she could give birth to two more for him. Isn't having a son better than anything else?
Jiang Ci returned home happily and didn't notice that Li Meilan had followed him all the way. When he entered the house, he found the whole family, young and old, were making dumplings together.
"Hey, who's back?" Jiang Ci started laughing when he saw Jiang Yan, "Why didn't you tell me in advance that you were back so I could pick you up."
"Teacher Jiang is a very busy man, how can you have time? Besides, I'm not a child who needs to be picked up." Jiang Yan put down the wrapped dumplings and said, "Dad, wash the water quickly and come to help."
"Hey, beef and green onions, this is good, I'll come right away."
After washing his hands, Jiang Ci took the rolling pin from Li Yuejin and started rolling the dough.
"I called you, why didn't you answer?"
"I was in class, but my colleague answered the phone. Who else was I thinking about? I was calling from home after all this time, so why didn't he say anything?"
"You're not talking?" Li Yuejin glanced at Jiang Chuancheng, "Chengcheng, what's going on? No one answered until you said so?"
Jiang Chuancheng felt a little guilty, "I, I said he wasn't there, I didn't say no one answered the phone!"
