Chapter 373: 243 Mr. Wei Meng Possessed, The Type of Guy Girls Like the Most (2nd Update)_2

"You’re really not going for the surgery?"

Her voice was warm and soft, deliberately teasing, the kind that would make even women feel a bit weak, let alone Jiang Jinsang.

What made him feel so amused and exasperated was that her forwardness was all for the sake of the surgery.

"Xiaowu—"

The arms wrapped around his neck tightened, she leaned in so close, Jiang Jinsang just felt a wave of warmth flood his body, his heartbeat erratic, and the next second, she tiptoed and pecked his face...

Jiang Jinsang took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and held her waist tightly, turning the tables without any hesitation.

Jiang Chengsi was quite good at enjoying life, finding sunbathing boring, he was looking for something to eat, and as he passed by Jiang Jinsang’s room, with the door still open, normally no one came to this floor, his steps were very light, witnessing the scene, he was somewhat taken aback...

Jiang Xiaowu could actually be this proactive? This domineering?

Possessed by Mr. Wei Meng?

This sickly one had, since childhood, loved to feign illness for sympathy, naturally frail and genuinely not easy to bully... Yet who would have thought...

That he’d be so assertive in this matter?

These two brothers are really one sneakier than the other.

He leaned on the door frame, watched for quite some time, then finally left, and these two seemed to be so engrossed in their own world they didn’t notice.

Outside, the cold wind was biting, but inside, the room was bustling with heat.

...

Due to Shen Zhixian and Taotao coming over in the evening, Jiang Yanting had already gone out to meet them, and the Jiang Family was bustling about.

"Chengsi, weren’t you supposed to sleep? Why did you come down?" The old lady smiled at him, Jiang Chengsi’s beating hadn’t been shared with her, "And dressed in so little, you really aren’t scared of the cold!"

As she spoke, she also raised her hand to pat his back, "Put on more clothes, don’t catch a cold, and be careful not to freeze to death when you go out biking."

Jiang Chengsi took a sharp breath, my dear grandmother, if you keep patting, I won’t freeze to death, but I might die of pain.

"Upstairs, those two are lovey-dovey; I’m a third wheel, so it’s not appropriate for me to stay." As Jiang Chengsi spoke, he moved away from his grandmother a bit under the guise of cracking open sunflower seeds to eat.

"They are still in the honeymoon phase, it’s normal." The old lady chuckled, "But speaking of Chengsi, not that grandma wants to rush you..."

The moment Jiang Chengsi heard her start, he knew what she was going to say, his temples began to throb, having escaped his dad, but not his grandma.

"Xiaowu is your younger brother, and he’s about to get engaged, you should really consider your own situation too, as for your second brother, his situation is more complicated, but he already has a child and a target in mind, you can’t stay single forever."

"Grandma, these sunflower seeds are really good, each one full and sweet."

"I’m talking to you about serious matters!"

"I’m not a serious person; I’d rather not damage some poor girl."

"You..."

"Mom, come to the kitchen and see how the soup tastes?" Fan Mingyu came to the rescue just in time, leading the old lady to the kitchen, Jiang Chengsi shot her a grateful look.

Seeing that he couldn’t stay here anymore, Jiang Chengsi raised an eyebrow and took out his phone to message Qi Zeyan.

[Qiqi, harbor me for a couple of days.]

Jiang Chengsi was clear that he needed to find a place Jiang Zhaolin wouldn’t dare approach so easily, or else the man, upon losing his temper, would definitely rush over and beat him, making those hotels outside unsuitable.

At this moment, Qi Zeyan was arranging work for Ruan Mengxi and Xiaozhu, and upon seeing the message, his facial nerves twitched violently, he immediately made a call.

"You hung up on me this morning and you still have the nerve to stay at my place?"

"Take me in for a bit."

"Get lost!"

"Qiqi, brother really has nowhere else to stay right now."

"I’ve been hanging out with you so much lately, my grandpa already thinks I’m not straight, if I bring you back now, what’s he going to think? He’ll definitely think I like men!"

"Then just go along with his idea, bring a man home."

"You get lost—"

...

The old lady stood at the kitchen doorway looking out at the people still joking around with Qi Zeyan, and she couldn’t help but shake her head, "This child..."

"Mom, Chengsi is usually very sensible when it comes to things, and this matter can’t be rushed. Besides, considering his temperament, even if you set him up on a blind date, he might end up making the girl cry, and then how would we explain it to her parents?" Fan Mingyu persuaded.

"Actually, these past years, even when he’s lived at home, he’s always kept to himself. He really lacks someone who understands him well."

"With his character, unless it’s someone he likes, who could force him?"

"That’s true but..."

"If he meets someone he likes, I fear you won’t need to tell him, he’ll be the one actively chasing after the girl. It’s just that fate hasn’t arrived yet."

"Him, chasing someone?" the old lady scoffed, "Dream on, that girl will surely be scared off by him. Look at him... which girl could stand that!"

"You don’t know, but out of all our Jiang boys, he’s the most sought after. You have no idea how many young ladies out there like him."

"Like him?" the old lady couldn’t believe it, "What kind of taste do these young girls have these days?"

However, hearing that a lot of people liked Jiang Chengsi, the old lady was still very happy at heart. She tasted the fresh soup and couldn’t stop praising it.

On the other side, Jiang Yanting didn’t go to Shen Zhixian’s apartment to pick her up. Instead, he parked his car in front of a jade store and waited.

Yutang Spring, considered to be a century-old shop, had suddenly become popular again in the past two years. Its jade had good quality, reasonably priced, and the designs were novel. The store was bustling with people, and although Jiang Yanting didn’t join the crowd inside, he parked his car outside to wait for her.

After about ten minutes, Shen Zhixian came out of the store leading Taotao and carrying a bag, clearly having made a purchase. They both looked around until Taotao’s sharp eyes spotted it, "Mommy, there’s uncle’s car!"

Having interacted frequently, Taotao had grown very familiar with Jiang Yanting. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

When they reached the car, Jiang Yanting had already stepped out to greet them, "Hello, Uncle."

Taotao was dressed in a white jacket today, making her look round and chubby. She had gained three pounds over the New Year, her cheeks plump and chubby, and she wore a little red hat, looking incredibly cute.

"Mm," replied Jiang Yanting, still not very talkative. He bent down to pick her up and settle her into the safety seat.

At first, Taotao had been somewhat resistant to his closeness, but as time passed and with Jiang Yanting treating her extremely well, children’s recognition of ’good’ was simple: anything that went her way, tasty treats, fun toys, and willingness to spend money on her. Thus, as the days went by, she grew accustomed to his closeness.

Once all three were in the car, Jiang Yanting finally turned to look at Shen Zhixian, "Buckle up your seatbelt."

"Mm." It was freezing cold outside, and Shen Zhixian rubbed her hands together to warm them.

"Did you buy something?"

"Xiaowu is getting engaged, right? I can’t show up empty-handed."

"Been busy lately?"

"Mm."

...

Jiang Yanting wasn’t a man who excelled at small talk. Taotao looked at her mother and then at the man in the driver’s seat. She felt the atmosphere between them was awkward.

However, just as the car started and left the jade store, a person emerged from one side looking at the photos he had sneakily taken. He was following Shen Zhixian, after all, she was the aunt from the Xie Family, a topic of constant discussion lately in Beijing. She rarely made public appearances and was elusive, so it was not easy to capture her movements...

What’s the deal with this child?

And why is Jiang’s second master here?

In recent years, Jiang Yanting didn’t even have any scandals, let alone female companions. And now here he was, holding a child, and caringly helping with the car door; their relationship must be no ordinary one.

Could it be...

**

Just as Jiang Yanting brought Shen Zhixian and her daughter home, Qi Zeyan also arrived within minutes.

"Why have you come?" Jiang Yanting eyed him.

"I’m here to mooch a meal!" His old man had been acting crazy recently, and he had no desire to go home.

Compared to Shen Zhixian, who brought gifts, someone else came empty-handed, shamelessly freeloading a meal, which seemed a bit shameless.
