Chapter 2210 - 714: Endure, Accept, Go Along (Daily Life)

3:00 PM sharp.

A taxi steadily stopped outside the grand and imposing entrance of YJTC.

Jiang Yourong pushed open the car door, got out, and looked up at the towering buildings in front of her, silently taking a deep breath.

She straightened her carefully chosen dark long coat, trying to look more professional and composed.

She stepped up to the gatehouse, "Hello, I’m looking for someone, going to Unit 2001 in Building 1."

The staff on duty immediately showed a standard smile, politely asking, "Certainly, miss, may I have your name?"

"Jiang Yourong." The staff stood up straight away, his tone becoming exceptionally respectful, "Hello Ms. Jiang, Mr. Tang has already instructed us in advance. Please wait a moment, I’ll arrange someone to escort you over."

"Okay, thank you." Jiang Yourong nodded, following a uniformed staff, through the meticulously designed central garden, where every step offered a new scene.

Entering the impressive lobby of Building 1, the butler was already waiting there, smiling as he opened the elevator access for her.

The elevator climbed steadily and quickly upwards.

In this narrow and enclosed space, the small anxiety she had been trying hard to suppress started spreading uncontrollably.

She raised her head, using the blurry reflection from the mirror-like stainless steel walls in the elevator, she quickly checked her makeup and hairstyle again.

Suddenly, a strong emptiness surged from her lower abdomen—it was hunger.

To appear "slim" this afternoon, she really hadn’t eaten anything for lunch, now she felt famished, as if she could easily eat an entire six-inch tiramisu cake.

She has a constitution with low basic metabolism but exceptionally efficient absorption.

Although her usual food intake isn’t large, she feels hungry easily, which is why she’s developed the habit of having afternoon tea.

"Ding—20th floor reached."

The elevator doors slowly slid open.

Jiang Yourong took a deep breath, walked out of the elevator, and arrived at the heavy solid black double armor-plated door.

She adjusted her appearance once again, ensuring there was no sign of impropriety, then raised her hand and rang the doorbell.

After a moment, a soft "click," the door was opened from inside.

Standing before her wasn’t Tang Song as she had expected.

But rather her beloved student who had been "kidnapped," Qian Lele.

"Teacher Jiang! You’re here!"

Qian Lele saw her, her eyes instantly lit up, affectionately pulling her teacher’s arm, her beautiful phoenix eyes filled with uncontrollable joy.

For her, in the vast Yan City, the two closest family members are her brother Tang Song and her teacher, who is like a friend, Teacher Jiang.

Now, they were gathered under the same roof, she couldn’t be happier.

Seeing her, the tension on Jiang Yourong’s face instantly melted into a gentle smile.

She reached out and ruffled her little head, teasing, "You’re alright? I saw the photos the ’kidnapper’ sent. I heard someone ’kidnapped’ you and specifically asked me to come ’redeem’ you."

"Ah?" Qian Lele blushed, quickly waving her hands in explanation, "No, no, it’s nothing! Brother was just joking. Teacher Jiang, please don’t get mad. I’m very well here, brother even cooks for me and plays VR games with me, it’s so much fun."

"Hehe, defending him already? Siding with outsiders, are we? I haven’t even said anything yet." Jiang Yourong deliberately put on a stern face.

"Emm..." Qian Lele stuck out her tongue sheepishly, "Teacher Jiang, please come in. It’s cold outside. I’ve prepared fruit for you, and your favorite dessert too, secretly prepared. It’s from Bao Master, specially bought at noon, with your favorite crab roe pastries and seaweed meat floss Bei!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yourong’s eyes instantly lit up.

However, she managed to swallow hard, with righteous determination, "Ahem! That’s not urgent."

While speaking, the two of them entered the spacious and luxurious entrance hallway.

Qian Lele hurriedly took out the ladies’ slippers that had been prepared from the shoe cabinet, squatting down, insisting on helping the teacher put them on herself.

Watching such a well-behaved and sensible student, Jiang Yourong’s face displayed a gratified smile.

"Teacher Jiang, brother is waiting for you over there."

Qian Lele led her through the softly lit corridor to the expansive living room.

Jiang Yourong momentarily paused, her gaze falling on the figure leisurely sitting on the sofa in the living room, her heart skipped a beat.

He was wearing a simple white T-shirt and light gray trousers, with a laptop resting on his knees, seemingly working.

Upon hearing the sound, he raised his head, calmly looking at her.

His whole being exuded a clear and clean aura, coupled with a hint of lazy noble elegance.

Compared to two months ago, he had changed a lot.

The delicacy in appearance was secondary, more importantly, was the composed aura radiating from within, and those deeper, brighter eyes.

"Teacher Jiang, long time no see."

Tang Song closed the laptop, stood up, his bright gaze fell on the hastily arrived "Jiang Pangpang."

Black long coat, metal buckle belt, fluffy long hair, curvaceous figure...

Emm... looking like this, indeed a bit plump.

Seems a little rounder compared to the summer vacation?

Noticing his unabashed gaze.

Jiang Yourong’s expression instantly became slightly unnatural, subconsciously sucking in her stomach, trying to straighten her back.
