Upon hearing that, Jiang Dai’s head began to pound. As for this……it had slipped her mind to inform her parents.
In any case, the main thing was she did not think of this at all. Who would have thought Huo Rongshen would be concerned about her parents?
It just so happened that Huo Rongshen wanted to care about her dad, yet when you thought about it, it all seemed pretty reasonable. After all, even if they had divorced, he was still of the younger generation. In the past, her parents treated him pretty well and he was respectful towards them.
If her dad were indeed diagnosed with a critical illness, it would not be right for her not to permit Huo Rongshen sternly to visit her dad…… What’s more, her heart was not made of stone.
With that in mind, Jiang Dai’s face stiffened with dismay. “Oh, then I’ll have to thank you for having a chat with my dad. However, I have heard from my mum that he now tires easily, so you should not visit them for too long.”
With an expression like a smile yet not quite a smile, the man refuted, “Auntie said that Uncle rarely heads to the office as of late. With you in charge of the company, he has plenty of time on his hands. As such, he has been sleeping loads. However, the doctor stated that this is not good for him as he is advised to exercise and meet up with his friends more frequently. Hence, I promised Uncle to have tea and play chess with him often from now on.”
Upon hearing that, Jiang Dai was rendered speechless.
Seeing how things had panned out, she was simply unable to complain.

She just could not seem to figure out why she had been getting such a weird vibe from these two guys.
Was this competitiveness or jealousy growing between them? Could it be merely a delusion of hers?
Not wanting to be outdone, Qiao Jinye had initially prepared the best excuse to stay in Jiang Dai’s home as he had tons of serious topics to discuss with her.
With that, he began the business talk. “The “Youth Camp” production crew had already begun their preparations for the recording. As for Qiao Yi, we will need to send a girl group with strong overall strength to compete. Since there is a limited number of places available, I thought to ask for your help and advice. Even though we are the main organizers, this program requires groups’ participation shortlisted by numerous companies. If a single company sends out far too many teams, the desired results will eventually be greatly reduced.”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Dai had somewhat entered her work mode. Since it was related to the program, it also meant that it was directly related to whether she was able to recoup her splurge on acquiring the ‘Title Sponsor’ title quickly.
Eight hundred million was no laughing matter, notably when she had acquired the loan with much difficulty. As such, it could not be trifled with.
With that in mind, Jiang Dai sat up straight. “Sure, sure. I will help you take a look at it. Although I am not a professional, my advice can be served as a reference point in terms of the audience’s point of view. So, have you brought the data over?”
Now that they were getting down to business, Qiao Jinye put all the footage he had prepared on the massive LCD in Jiang Dai’s living room.
Since Jiang Dai did not really watch many talent search programs in the past, this was her first time watching a girl group’s performance, which she found was pretty good.
These young girls all had fair skin and long legs as they danced so youthfully and energetically. It was only then did she understand why this variety show was so popular during every summer holiday. Thinking about that point, she began to feel increasingly confident in her investment.
“This group should have an excellent dance foundation and is pretty good overall.”
Qiao Jinye commented, “Yes, they are indeed pretty good. Out of the seven members, five of them are lead dancers. Amongst them, two of them are dance teachers who teach artistes regularly. However, it is just that their singing is much weaker.”
Jiang Dai nodded her head in agreement and stated, “That is indeed true. There’s nothing to say when it comes to their dancing, as their dance performances are so powerful. As for their singing, the air distribution for the high notes is not too steady, and the chorus portion is rather messy. Let’s just keep this first and move on to the next one.”
Seated on the opposite sofa, Huo Rongshen was clearly being excluded by the other two……
The smile on his face gradually ebbed away as a vague sense of frustration welled up in his heart.
By the time Jiang Dai remembered him, she had paused for a moment before asking, “Why are you still here?”
Upon hearing that, Huo Rongshen pursed his thin lips as his eyes fell on Qiao Jinye.
It seemed as though he was asking her wordlessly: Why is it that this guy could stay, yet you are kicking me out?
“…………” After pondering over this, Jiang Dai came up with a self-proclaimed perfect excuse. “We are currently talking about work, which is something exceptionally dire. On top of that, it is about to end soon. As soon as it is over, Jinye will be leaving as well. After all, I am not feeling very well today. Soon after, I will be heading back to bed.”
She could not help but think that she was so remarkably quick-witted!
Not only did she show Huo Rongshen to the door, but she had also reminded Qiao Jinye indirectly that he had to leave after they were done with the girl groups’ practice videos. That was because she wanted to enjoy her weekend quietly by herself.
However, Huo Rongshen choked and asked, “Where do you feel unwell?”
“……My stomach. I have a terrible gastric that can’t be cured by eating medicines. That is why I need my sleep.” An excellent idea popped in a celestial maiden’s mind at a crucial moment.
Immediately right after, Huo Rongshen got up from the sofa and swept his stern gaze over the various food containers on the table. “How could your stomach not feel well after consuming these cold foods as soon as you get up early in the morning? I will cook something warm to settle your stomach.”
As soon as the words left his mouth, both Jiang Dai and Qiao Jinye were rendered speechless.
The food he brought over was clearly hot, or at the very least, they were warm when he arrived. Only did the remaining food that Jiang Dai could not finish turn cold after being left there on the table for such a long time.
Watching Huo Rongshen make his way to the open kitchen without waiting for Jiang Dai to nod her head, Qiao Jinye heaved a silent breath, attempting to keep his calm.
It is alright. Now is the time to pit against each other to vie for the ability to remain calm longest.
It was apparent that Jiang Dai’s attitude towards him was far better than that to her ex-husband.
the translator does an excellent job and I really like Daidai’s personality, but I just can’t stand how the author tries to convey a good image of her ex-husband. abandoning this story because I believe he is the ml, and if he is not, he will be the poor thing she didn’t choose.
This Huo Rongshen is a bit too overbearing isn’t he? Despite his pitifully low EQ, he was able to understand that his EX-WIFE was frothing at the mouth for a divorce from him and was always impatient when having to deal with him. Yet he barges into her home and without her permission, moves around it as though he owns the place. Reading about how capable Jiang Dai is, I expected for her to just stand her ground and get him out. Hopefully it’ll happen in later chapters before the inevitable reconciliation.
