After the car drove into the garage, Li Yang got out to take the items from the trunk.

Jiang Banxia, on the other hand, got out of the car with Jiang Tiandong to help carry.

It was mostly some nutritional supplements, and Jiang Tiandong was a bit disappointed not to see his favorite drinks.

Just now at dinner, he successfully got to drink his favorite drink. After some brief thinking with his little head, he thought it was Li Yang’s presence that allowed him to have the drink, something not available at home usually. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

So, Li Yang = drinks.

That’s also why he was willing to go along, but then there were none.

Li Yang ≠ drinks?

"Dongdong, carry this," Jiang Banxia handed him a small box.

"If it’s not a drink, I don’t want it!"

Jiang Tiandong’s attitude was clear.

Li Yang, on the side, said, "If you call me brother-in-law, I’ll buy you a drink."

"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, brother-in-law! Three bottles!" Jiang Tiandong felt adults were stingy, and if he didn’t finish the deal quickly, they’d surely find excuses to give him the minimum.

"Hahaha, I was planning to buy you a box."

"????"

A few minutes later, Jiang Banxia walked with her brother carrying things towards their apartment floor.

When they were near the elevator, Jiang Tiandong didn’t want to move at all.

"Where’s the brother-in-law? Didn’t he say he’d buy me a drink? Did he run away?"

Jiang Banxia: "..."

Of course he ran away, who would dare buy you a drink?

If it were her, she would have run too.

"Let’s go home first, and when you see your brother-in-law in a couple of days, he’ll buy it for you."

Jiang Banxia took on a parental role.

But Jiang Tiandong just threw down what he was carrying and lay directly on the ground.

"I’m not leaving!"

Jiang Banxia: "..."

Suddenly, she felt kids were annoying, clearly worried that drinking too much wasn’t good for him.

Jiang Tiandong had quite a few issues since his parents weren’t around much when he was little. His grandparents raised him mostly, and he got cavities at a young age.

He recently changed his teeth, and they looked pretty good. The family strictly forbade him from eating sugar and drinks, especially his favorite, cola.

"Get up quickly, or do you believe I’ll hit you?"

Jiang Banxia spoke in a proper parental tone.

But Jiang Tiandong didn’t listen at all.

Because he knew, the hitting wouldn’t hurt.

But if he didn’t act spoiled, he really wouldn’t get to drink anything.

This was also something he realized, which is that parents like to lie, and most of their promises are fake. Only by acting spoiled does he stand a chance of success.

Jiang Banxia was helpless, she wouldn’t really hit anyone, plus her hands were full.

She was about to call home to have them come and resolve this.

Just as she put down the stuff to take her phone, the elevator arrived.

When the elevator doors opened, Li Yang appeared.

He held drinks, asking, "Why didn’t you come up? I’ve been waiting at your door for ages."

Jiang Banxia looked at Jiang Tiandong, "This guy’s playing tricks, won’t move."

Li Yang walked over, and Jiang Tiandong immediately jumped up at the noise, "Brother-in-law, where’s my drink?"

Li Yang took out the drinks he’d just bought and handed them to him.

Jiang Tiandong’s initially unhappy expression visibly turned to excitement.

This time it’s different.

He originally only intended to act spoiled, hoping the family would give him one bottle, but Li Yang brought three bottles.

Jiang Banxia asked, "Did you really buy it for him?"

"I promised, can’t lie to a child, right?"

As he spoke, Li Yang picked up Jiang Tiandong and reminded him, "This is your supply for the week. Remember to brush your teeth in the morning and evening, you got it? I’ll be keeping a close eye on this. If you don’t do it, I won’t buy it for you next time."

"Mmm-hmm..."

With the drink in hand, Jiang Tiandong agreed to everything.

Only Jiang Banxia knew that Jiang Tiandong’s words didn’t count, and it would probably be gone by tomorrow.

"Remember, you promised me just like I promised you. This is a gentleman’s agreement. If you don’t keep it, you’ll become a dishonorable person. When you’re dishonorable, no one will believe you or play with you in the future."

"Mmm-hmm..."

Li Yang picked up some of the items and went up the elevator with Jiang Banxia.

Jiang Banxia couldn’t help but expose Jiang Tiandong, "If this guy could keep his word, it’d be nice. One bottle in the afternoon, one at night, and by tomorrow morning one more, and it’s gone by afternoon."

Li Yang laughed and said, "Then give him to me tomorrow afternoon, I’ll show him what a gentleman’s agreement means!"

"You’ll be doomed to be pestered by him."

"Haha, who pesters whom is still uncertain."

Li Yang decided to practice with Jiang Tiandong, so that when his own child arrives, he could seamlessly manage.

Soon, they reached the elevator door, and Li Yang didn’t go in, just placing down the items.

When Dou Ying opened the door and saw the excited Jiang Tiandong holding the drinks, she asked, "Where did these drinks come from?"

"Brother-in-law gave them to me!"

This single call of "brother-in-law" startled even Jiang Yaoting on the sofa.

Helping Jiang Banxia with the items, he said as they walked, "Dongdong, your sister and Li Yang aren’t married yet, so you can’t call him brother-in-law."

Jiang Tiandong didn’t react much; after all, he was just a child.

But Jiang Banxia wasn’t happy and said, "Dad, you’ve had your meal, and now you’ve accepted the gift, and you’re not acknowledging it?"

"What gift did I accept?"

"Well, what you’re holding right now. Li Yang specially bought it for you, it even has a sixty-year-old wild ginseng in it."

Jiang Yaoting, upon hearing the first part, almost threw the items out.

Hearing the latter part, he couldn’t bear to.

A sixty-year-old wild ginseng is a rare find; it’s always good to have one on hand if there are elderly folks at home.
