Chapter 1330 Talking about a deal
On Jiang Mubai's birthday, Cheng Yunchuan woke her up early in the morning and said that he would take her to a special place. Although Jiang Mubai was curious, she obediently followed him into the car.
The car drove all the way and finally stopped in front of a dense forest. Jiang Mubai looked at the scene in front of him and was a little confused: "What are we doing here?"
Cheng Yunchuan smiled mysteriously: "Of course it's an adventure! Let's do something exciting today."
He took out two backpacks from the trunk and handed one to Jiang Mubai: "Put on these clothes, let's go!"
Jiang Mubai opened her backpack, which contained a set of camouflage clothes, hiking shoes, gloves, a compass, etc., which were obviously professional adventure equipment. She excitedly changed her clothes and followed Cheng Yunchuan into the forest.
The air in the forest was fresh, and the sunlight shone through the leaves, forming mottled light and shadows on the ground. The two walked along a path, encountering some small animals from time to time, which made Jiang Mubai very excited.
As they walked, they came to a steep cliff. Below the cliff was a turbulent river with a deafening sound.
"Should we go down?" Jiang Mubai looked at the bottomless cliff and felt a little scared.
Cheng Yunchuan smiled and took out two ropes from his backpack: "Of course, but instead of jumping down directly, we're going to slide down using ropes."
He skillfully fixed the rope to a big tree on the edge of the cliff, and then handed the other end to Jiang Mubai: "Hold the rope tightly, don't be afraid, I will protect you."
Jiang Mubai took a deep breath, grabbed the rope tightly, and slid down carefully. Cheng Yunchuan followed closely behind, always paying attention to her safety.
As she slid down, Jiang Mubai's heartbeat quickened, but she did not feel scared. Instead, she felt an inexplicable excitement.
She looked at the rushing river below her feet, felt the wind blowing against her face, and felt like a free-flying bird.
Suddenly, the rope shook violently, Jiang Mubai screamed and almost let go.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Yunchuan asked nervously.
"It seems like something hit the rope." Jiang Mubai said in shock.
Cheng Yunchuan looked up and saw a huge eagle hovering above their heads, its sharp claws tightly grasping the rope, as if trying to pull them down.
The eagle's attack came suddenly and went away quickly. After several dives, it seemed to lose interest. After circling a few times, it finally disappeared into the blue sky.
Cheng Yunchuan did not dare to delay and quickly pulled Jiang Mubai up.
As soon as Jiang Mubai landed on the ground, she hugged Cheng Yunchuan tightly. The thrilling experience just now made her feel scared: "I was scared to death! I thought I was going to die here!"
Cheng Yunchuan stroked her back gently and comforted her softly, "It's okay, it's okay, I'm here."
Jiang Mubai raised her head and looked at Cheng Yunchuan's concerned eyes. A warm current surged in her heart. She stood on tiptoe and gently kissed the corner of Cheng Yunchuan's mouth: "Thank you, Cheng Yunchuan."
Cheng Yunchuan was stunned for a moment, then a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He held Jiang Mubai's face and kissed him affectionately.
This kiss brought with it the relief of surviving the disaster, as well as the gradually warming love between the two.
After a long time, their lips parted, and Jiang Mubai's cheeks were flushed, like a ripe apple, so beautiful and tempting.
"Let's go back." Jiang Mubai's voice was a little hoarse.
Cheng Yunchuan nodded, took Jiang Mubai's hand, and the two returned along the same path.
When she got back to the car, Jiang Mubai realized that her hands were shaking slightly. She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
"Fortunately, you reacted quickly, otherwise we would have been in real trouble today." Jiang Mubai didn't say anything else, but she believed that Cheng Yunchuan understood what she meant.
Cheng Yunchuan held Jiang Mubai's hand tightly and said firmly: "I won't let anything happen to you."
The two returned to the villa. Jiang Mubai took a hot bath, changed into clean clothes, and felt completely relaxed.
Cheng Yunchuan's cell phone suddenly rang. He glanced at the caller ID and frowned slightly.
"There's something urgent going on at the Qin Group, so I have to go back." There was a hint of apology in Cheng Yunchuan's tone.
Although Jiang Mubai felt a little disappointed, he still said considerately: "Go ahead, work is more important."
Cheng Yunchuan walked up to Jiang Mubai and hugged her gently: "Wait for me to come back."
Jiang Mubai nodded and watched Cheng Yunchuan leave.
After Cheng Yunchuan left, Jiang Mubai sat alone on the sofa, thinking about everything that happened today, the eagle's attack, Cheng Yunchuan's protection, and that affectionate kiss.
She picked up her phone and looked through the photos she had taken earlier. In the photos, she and Cheng Yunchuan were smiling brightly.
Jiang Mubai unconsciously raised a sweet smile on her lips, and she suddenly realized that she really loved her current husband.
In the villa, Jiang Mubai was curled up on the sofa, holding a cup of hot cocoa in his hand, and the lingering aroma filled the air.
As night fell outside the window, the lights in the city gradually lit up, like stars scattered on the earth. She flipped through the photos on her phone, and the corners of her mouth rose unconsciously.
In the photo, she and Cheng Yunchuan snuggled together. In the afterglow of the setting sun, their smiles were like blooming flowers, bright and beautiful.
Suddenly, the doorbell rang, breaking the silence. Jiang Mubai frowned slightly. Cheng Yunchuan had said that he was going to deal with the Qin Group's affairs. Who would it be at this time? She put down the cup in her hand, stood up and walked to the door, looking out through the cat's eye.
There was a strange man standing outside the door, dressed in a suit, with his hair combed neatly, and a contemptuous smile on his face. Jiang Mubai's heart was alarmed, she did not open the door, but asked through the door: "Excuse me, who are you?"
"Hello, sister-in-law, I am Qin Yuanqing, Cheng Yunchuan's younger brother." The man spoke arrogantly, as if giving alms.
Jiang Mubai's heart sank. Qin Yuanqing, Cheng Yunchuan's half brother, had always regarded Cheng Yunchuan as a thorn in his side. What was he doing here?
"What's the matter?" Jiang Mubai asked in a cold tone, and he didn't mean to invite him in.
Qin Yuanqing chuckled, with a hint of threat in his tone: "Sister-in-law, open the door, let's have a good chat."
Jiang Mubai hesitated for a moment, and finally opened the door. Qin Yuanqing walked in unceremoniously, looking at the decoration of the villa with contempt, and a look of disdain appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Sister-in-law, how does it feel to live here? Is it much better than your previous shabby apartment?" Qin Yuanqing said sarcastically.
Jiang Mubai's face darkened slightly. She didn't like Qin Yuanqing's tone, and she disliked his contemptuous look even more.
"Mr. Qin, just say it if you have something to say." Jiang Mubai said in a cold tone, not hiding his displeasure at all.
Qin Yuanqing sat down on the sofa, crossed his legs, and looked arrogant: "Sister-in-law, I came here today to discuss a deal with you."
