Sir, How About A Marriage? Chapter 109 - Flower Baskets

Chapter 109 - Flower Baskets

Zhuang Ji's exhibition was as unique as a pearl; it was dazzling. Hence, when Zhuang Ji finally opened for business, it was bustling with activity.

In order to ensure customer satisfaction, Cheng Che and An Ran made sure the first batch of orders was completed before they opened for business. The customers who received their orders were naturally delighted while those who had yet to receive their orders were filled with antic.i.p.ation.

Even without much publicity, Zhuang Ji's business was good.

Just the congratulatory flower baskets that Zhuang Ji received were enough to line the entrance of the shop to the street.

At this time, Jiang Jin, who was on the second floor of Zhuang Ji accompanying her friends who came to show support, was incredibly happy. Perhaps, she had spent her entire life building the Mu Group, she had grown indifferent to it. In comparison, her granddaughter-in-law's small business filled her with happiness. She was filled with satisfaction when she looked at her friends' smiling faces. Being able to sit and chat with her friends filled her with vigor as well.

In fact, Jiang Jin felt her health had improved tremendously these days. Apart from her improved mood, she attributed the improvement of her health to her granddaughter-in-law's medical skills.

Jiang Jin sighed in contentment. 'All my friends are envious of me for having such an amazing granddaughter-in-law. I wonder how many more people are envious of me?'

At this moment, while Jiang Jin was busy entertaining her friends, a shop a.s.sistant hurriedly ran over and said in a hushed tone, "Old Madam, a.s.sistant Cheng would like to speak to you for a moment…"

Jiang Jin did think much of it and grumbled slightly, "What happened? That brat really can't let me rest…"

Upon hearing these words, one of Jiang Jin's friends chuckled and said teasingly, "Jiang Jin, are you showing off? Is there anyone who doesn't know that apart from your grandson, Mu Chen, you have Cheng Che who's equally as capable and filial? Hurry up, go and see what he wants…"

Jiang Jin went downstairs with an expression of pride on her face. However, when she saw Cheng Che's solemn expression, she asked, "What's going on?"

"Grandma, the Ning Group sent ten flower baskets," Cheng Che said in a low voice.

Jiang Jin was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.

Cheng Che continued to say, "The message on the flower baskets reads: Congratulations! I hope my daughter's business will prosper. It's signed by Ning Zhe. Coincidentally, these flower baskets were sent late so they're placed right in front where our customers can see them."

Anger rose in Jiang Jin's heart immediately. "Is Ning Zhe crazy? He actually used such a method to provoke Song Ning? Where's your brother and sister-in-law?"

Cheng Che looked at his watch and replied, "They should be here in less than ten minutes."

Jiang Jin said anxiously, "Get someone to move those flower baskets to the warehouse."

Cheng Che hesitated for a moment before he said, "Many guests are arriving at this moment. If we move them now, I'm afraid we'll attract even more attention."

"Then, take down the messages!" Jiang Jin said.

"This won't do as well. The more we try to cover this up, the worse this matter will become. Moreover, I don't know if Ning Zhe has any other tricks up his sleeve," Cheng Che said solemnly.

"Then what should we do? Won't Song Ning be upset when she sees the flower baskets?" Jiang Jin felt distressed for Song Ning. After learning about Song Ning and her mother's sufferings, her heart ached even more for Song Ning. She wished she could protect Song Ning from now on.

Cheng Che brought his phone out as he said to Jiang Jin, "Grandma, I'll speak to brother about this matter first. Perhaps, I can tell them not to come over?"

Jiang Jin looked at Cheng Che worriedly as Cheng Che waited for the call to connect.

It did not take long before Mu Chen answered the call.

"Brother," Cheng Che called out.

"I know. We've seen the flower baskets," Mu Chen said in a calm voice.

Cheng Che disconnected the call and rushed to meet the couple.

Meanwhile, Song Ning's face was pale as Mu Chen helped her into the shop.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Jin grew even more distressed. She hurriedly pulled Song Ning into a hug; she could feel Song Ning's body trembling. She patted Song Ning's back to comfort her as she said in a soft voice, "Ningning, don't be sad. We won't let ourselves fall into a disadvantageous position. Don't worry."

Mu Chen asked in a deep voice, "Grandma, do you have any suggestions on how we should deal with this matter?"

Jiang Jin only smiled as she said, "Ningning, my grandson still owes you a grand wedding…"

The trio was baffled by Jiang Jin's seemingly random words. They did not understand what she meant.

Jiang Jin s.h.i.+fted her gaze to Mu Chen and said, "Mu Chen, we'll host a wedding banquet once Ningning graduates. However, we can announce it now. You've always been plagued with rumors; this shouldn't be a problem, right?"
