Chapter 276: Wife Selection for Jing Yiran (Part Two)

Jing Yichen knew the reason why he had got such a disease. It had to do with his past experience.

That was a memory which he never wanted to relive. Only in this way was he able to lead a normal life. But what he hadn’t expected was that he would even be injured because of that matter.

Seeing Jing Yichen’s absent-minded expression, Shangguan Ning waved her hands in front of his face. “Hey, what are you thinking, did you hear what I said?”

Jing Yichen stopped thinking, took Shangguan Ning in his arms and sat down on the chair before putting her down onto his thighs.

“Did you just ask me why we had these materials?”

Shangguan Ning smelled nice and her soft body made him relax.

“Yes, all of these are the wealthy daughters of A City and I don’t think that any of them would be willing to become your concubine.” Shangguan Ning joked as she slipped her arms around his neck.

“Oh, I am not sure whether they are willing, but I for sure, am not. It is enough for me to have a Mother Tigress at home. How would I survive if one more comes.”

Shangguan Ning pinched his ears as she said furiously, “Who is Mother Tigress? Is there any anyone who is as beautiful and gentle as I am?”

Jing Yichen pleaded with a smile. “No, no! My wife is the gentlest one. She won’t pinch me for no reason or grab me by my ear. These women are for someone else. Please, help me pick and see who is qualified enough to be the daughter-in-law of Family Jing.”

Daughter-in-law of Family Jing?

Startled, Shangguan Ning thought for a moment that it meant – Jing Yichen’s wife.

But she was the daughter-in-law of Family Jing!

But after a few seconds, she realized who these girls were for.

This news really startled Shangguan Ning. She asked incredulously, “Jing Yiran is getting married?”

This was too sudden.

When did he start to find the “beauty” all of sudden and prepare to get married?

Jing Yichen nodded and said in a soft voice, “Yes, he is getting married soon. Father asked me to shortlist some suitable ones for him to pick from. All the girls with proper qualifications who are related to our family are here.”

Jing Yiran was an arrogant man. Could he possibly accept a stranger as his wife? Could he possibly accept an arranged marriages between families?

Also, it was Jing Yichen who was in charge of selecting the wife, wasn’t that a bit too convenient to... pull some trick? How could Jing Zhongxiu trust Jing Yichen for doing this job? Wouldn’t he remove the good ones and keep the ugliest girls?

“Get him an ugly person. Someone who is hot-tempered and has experienced a lot of relationships. Oh, it would be great if she could be as strong as Lu who can’t be bullied by him and can take full control of him.”

Jing Yichen burst into laughter seeing his excited wife. “You are more enthusiastic than me about this. I am sorry to disappoint you, because I can’t get him an ugly woman. Instead, I have to get him a beautiful and wealthy lady with a good temper. As for the strength... well, Lu is probably the only weirdo in the entire A City who has that ability.”

Shangguan Ning was confused. She mumbled unhappily leaning in Jing Yichen’s arms, “Well, if we can’t pull any tricks, then don’t pick one for him. Or he might blame you for getting him a bad one. Dad really entrusted us with a terrible deed...”

Jing Yichen patted her shoulders and said calmly, “It is okay, Jing Yiran’s wife will be the daughter-in-law of Family Jing and you can’t avoid meeting her in future. I need to get a good one for him, one who won’t cause trouble for us behind our backs.”

He didn’t tell Shangguan Ning the reason due to which Jing Zhongxiu was making Jing Yiran get married so quickly. He wanted to stop him from badgering Shangguan Ning and to make him give up on her.

But he hadn’t expected that Jing Zhongxiu would make the decision to make Jing Yiran get married so soon. When he had given his father a promise of not killing Jing Yiran, he had received a wonderful award in return.

It was a very good method to restrain him by making Jing Yiran get married, because as soon as he got married, he would need to care about the girl’s family and he would not make a mess and cause trouble recklessly like before.

Therefore, he needed to get a woman with a neutral family. She needed to have a mild yet not weak personality. Otherwise the marriage would mean nothing.

Jing Yichen knew all the families in A City, but he knew nothing about those daughters from the families.

“Ning, do you know anyone from these papers?”

Shangguan Ning blinked, picked up the documents and leafed through them. “Of course, there are quite a few I know, like Qian Yuyu from Family Qian, Mei Kehua from Family Mei, Shen Lingbing from Family Shen and oh look, even Zheng Lun and Anan are here!”

Jing Yichen smiled. His men had done what he had ordered to do and Zheng Lun and Anan would fit his requirement, so they were also included in the pile of candidates.

“Forget about Anan, and Zheng Lun, none of them fit. Zheng Lun is the apple of the eyes of Zheng Jing and their parents, so they will never not marry her to Jing Yiran. As for others... you can tell me about the others you know...”

The couple talked about all the girls of A City and picked out four candidates. Shen Lingbing was one of them and Shangguan Ning knew her personally. Shangguan Ning had met her a few times on some occasions and spoken with her. She had a good impression of her. Shen Lingbing was born in a good family but was somehow distant and intimidating. She had a strong sense of family honor and wouldn’t pick on anyone or look down on anyone who was less than her. She was also one of the few people who disliked Shangguan Rouxue.

After she finished the selection, it suddenly occurred to Shangguan Ning that if she had not married Jing Yichen, would Jing Zhongxiu also have picked a wife for him from these documents and if yes, would she have been also one of the candidates?

Shangguan Ning shivered. It felt so weird to be picked by others from a pile of documents.

Luckily she was married, or Shangguan Zheng would have tried whatever he could, to get her to Jing Yiran’s bed if he had known that Family Jing was looking for a daughter-in-law.

After they finished the selection, Jing Yichen didn’t ask his men to deliver the documents to Jing Zhongxiu. It was the weekend the following day and they would have lunch at Huang Lihan’s. He could give the documents to him in person, then.

The following morning, Shangguan Ning went to Family Mu’s Hospital with Jing Yichen.

As expected, Zhao Anan was standing next to Mu Qing like a zombie. But she was no longer bellowing or shouting and she didn’t look like a maniac woman any more.
