In fact, Ji Chen did not have much preference for activities like admiring the moon. After all, he had never felt the atmosphere of the Mid-Autumn Festival since he was young. No matter what, he just had to study and complete the tasks given by Old Master Ji.
Therefore, although he knew what kind of festival the Mid-Autumn Festival was, he was not too biased emotionally.
However, when he met Jiang He’s expectant gaze, Ji Chen thought for a few seconds and nodded in agreement.
“Okay, what should be prepared?”
After receiving Ji Chen’s reply, a trace of excitement flashed across Jiang He’s eyes.
“No, there’s no need. I’m almost done preparing.”
As Jiang He spoke, she gave a look to the servant who was standing at the side. The servant left to tidy up the things that had been prepared and brought them up.
“There’s a balcony on the second floor of the villa. It’s a very good place to admire the moon. Shall we go?” Jiang He revealed her plan and asked for Ji Chen’s opinion.
Ji Chen stood up and looked down at Jiang He, who was not far away. “Then let’s go.”
Jiang He sighed and took the initiative to walk in front, leading the way for Ji Chen.
The two of them went upstairs in silence and settled down on the seats that Jiang He had already prepared. At this moment, the servants also brought up the things that Jiang He had prepared previously.
Ji Chen’s gaze lingered on Jiang He for a moment before she looked elsewhere.
In this area, villas were not too far apart from each other, plus Ji Chen’s eyesight was very good, so he could easily see the surrounding villas. There were two families, and they were also taking their families out to admire the moon.
Ji Chen could not hear what those people were saying, but he could roughly see the children of those two families playing and the indulgent attitude of the parents.
When he saw other people eating mooncakes and chatting warmly, Ji Chen finally felt the emotions contained in the Mid-Autumn Festival.
He took a piece of mooncake prepared by Jiang He and handed it to Jiang He. After Jiang He took it, he took one for himself.
Ji Chen looked at the round mooncake in his hand, which was less than half the size of his palm, and slowly raised it up and put it into his mouth.
Seeing Ji Chen’s actions, Jiang He did not eat the mooncake that Ji Chen gave her, but kept looking at Ji Chen. After seeing him swallow it, Jiang He asked impatiently, “How does it taste?”
Ji Chen nodded. His cold expression seemed to become much gentler under the moonlight.
“It tastes good.”
This mooncake did not taste very good, but perhaps it had the bonus of this being the Mid-Autumn Festival so Ji Chen felt that this mooncake was not bad.
After all, in the past, he had spent the Mid-Autumn Festival alone. Even with Gu Xiao’s existence, he had been busy with the company and the Ji Group. He had not spent the Mid-Autumn Festival with Gu Xiao properly.
This was the first time he had actually celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival. It was the first time he had eaten mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
When Jiang He heard Ji Chen’s words, a faint smile appeared at the corners of her mouth.
“That’s good,” Jiang He murmured.
Other than buying mooncakes, she had personally led the servants in making mooncakes. After all, she stayed in the villa every day and had nothing else to do. It was really too boring.
And the mooncake that Ji Chen had just eaten was made by her.
She took the mooncake handed to her by Ji Chen and took a small bite. She felt that it was indeed as Ji Chen had said, the mooncake tasted pretty good.
The two of them sat on the balcony, admiring the moon and eating mooncakes. However, they could feel the warmth lingering around them.
However, no matter how delicious the mooncakes were, they would get tired of them if they ate too much.
In the end, Jiang He and Ji Chen did not finish the small plate of mooncakes.
It was getting later and later. When the night wind started to turn cold, Jiang He suggested returning indoors.
Hearing Jiang He’s words, Ji Chen did not take action immediately. He sat in his seat and looked sideways at Jiang He with a serious expression.
Facing Ji Chen, Jiang He subconsciously sat up straight.
She had felt this feeling from her father and Old Master Ji before.
“Son, do you have something to say to me?”
Ji Chen nodded and said calmly, “I started a small jewelry company.. After National Day, what do you think about managing this company?”
