The Strategy of That Scum [Quick Transmigration] (MTL)

Chapter 12 Substitute (Part Eleven)

"Rongyi!"

Jiang Chengming stood intact not far behind Rongyi, looking directly at her with a somewhat disheveled appearance. The complex expression on his face had no concealment.

He admitted that he was indeed a bit shocked. He thought Rongyi's feelings towards him would be similar to his feelings towards her. However...

The Rongyi in front of him, the emotional impact she gave him, was something Jiang Chengming had never experienced before. For a moment, he felt a bit at a loss.

As Rongyi turned around, a tear immediately slid down her cheek, and she stood there motionless, staring at Jiang Chengming in the distance.

Subconsciously taking a couple of steps forward, she quickly increased her pace and threw herself into his arms. She first grabbed his clothes and then wrapped her arms tightly around his waist, burying her face in his chest. Her entire being was in Jiang Chengming's embrace, and he couldn't see any expression on her face. She made no sound, just quietly nestled in his arms. Her shoulders shook slightly, and her grip on him tightened.

"Rongyi..."

It took Jiang Chengming a while to find his voice. When he spoke, he realized that his voice sounded dry and somewhat harsh, but he didn't care. Gently encircling Rongyi's trembling shoulders, he reassured her, "I'm fine, don't be afraid, don't be afraid..."

Feeling Jiang Chengming's comforting presence, Rongyi's trembling body gradually calmed down. However, her hands still didn't loosen their grip; she continued holding onto Jiang Chengming tightly.

"Acheng..."

Seeing this, Jiang Chengming had to gesture to his driver, who had recovered from his surprise and immediately rushed over to open the car door.

Jiang Chengming, with Rongyi, got into the car and told the driver the address of another hotel. He continued to comfort Rongyi during the drive.

As he comforted her, Jiang Chengming suddenly felt Rongyi's hand, which had been clutching his sleeve tightly, loosen. He looked down and saw that she had fallen asleep without wiping away the tears that had welled up in her eyes.

No wonder, they had just finished the flight and experienced a rollercoaster of emotions. Feeling fatigued was perfectly normal.

Jiang Chengming smiled, kissed Rongyi gently on the forehead, and then grabbed his jacket that he had thrown aside earlier. He placed it gently over Rongyi, holding her close. He instructed the driver, Acheng, to drive more smoothly.

Observing his boss's behavior, Acheng knew that this time, Jiang Chengming was probably in for it. Even he, who had been surprised by Rongyi's actions, couldn't help but admire her courage. Normally, she appeared gentle and obedient, but when it came to the safety of her boss, she charged fearlessly into the flames. Even Acheng, considering the towering flames, would have hesitated, but Rongyi didn't give it a second thought. It was truly admirable. If he were the boss and saw a girl act like this for him, he would likely hold her dearly just like Jiang Chengming was doing now!

Lin Yirou had been missing for so many years. It was about time for the boss to find a girlfriend. Rongyi would be a good choice.

Arriving at the new hotel, Jiang Chengming showed no intention of waking up Rongyi. Instead, he asked Acheng to arrange a room, then gently carried Rongyi into the room. He placed her on the bed, covered her with a blanket, and squatted by the bedside, looking at her for a long time. He pondered for a while, unsure of what he was thinking.

Gently stroking Rongyi's hair, Jiang Chengming smiled and stood up. He walked towards the table where his notebook and many documents had been placed. He had instructed his subordinates to bring them in earlier. Taking advantage of the time while Rongyi was sleeping, he decided to finish his work.
