Chapter 587: 375 Wanwan Transformation: Day and Night, Completely Different (4 Updates)_2
Jiang Jinsang was painfully aware that he needed to rest properly; otherwise, how could a mere door, a single lock, possibly contain him.
During the day, he could only look for opportunities to be close to her. Although they had been honest with each other, Tang Wan was still shy, and just a word or joke from him could make her flush with embarrassment.
Sometimes, when the old lady saw this, she felt overly embarrassed herself and couldnât help but remind him,
"Donât you have any shame? Wanwan does. Canât you learn from your brother? When heâs with Zhixian, does he act like you do?"
Jiang Jinsang really wanted to retort,
"Big brother just pretends to be decent in public but is a beast in private."
...
Meanwhile, Zhou Zhongqing, though abroad, would still make calls or video calls to Jiang Jinsang from time to time to inquire about his health.
That day, during his workout, Jiang Jinsang received a video call from Zhou Zhongqing. He paused the treadmill, grabbed a towel to wipe off sweat, and answered the call, "Uncle Zhouâ"
"Iâve been busy with meetings lately, and the timing hasnât been very regular, so I couldnât schedule a fixed time to contact you." Although the meetings were exhausting, they were nothing compared to standing at an operation table all day, so Zhou Zhongqingâs complexion looked rather good recently.
"Itâs okay."
"You look rather healthy." Zhou Zhongqing observed him, wearing black sportswear, the top soaked with sweat, clinging to his body, vaguely revealing the contours of his well-defined, yet not overly exaggerated muscles.
"Itâs passable."
Jiang Jinsang, still wiping sweat with the towel and feeling uncomfortable from being drenched, tugged slightly at his collar. Zhou Zhongqingâs gaze tightened, "Wait, pull down your collar and let me have a look."
"Whatâs wrong?" Jiang Jinsang appeared calm.
"You wouldnât..." Zhou Zhongqing clenched his teeth, "Jiang Jinsang!"
Tang Wan happened to appear at the doorway, hearing Zhou Zhongqingâs voice from inside, thinking they might be on a call or video call. She initially planned to come back later but suddenly heard Zhou Zhongqing raise his voice calling out Jiang Jinsangâs name. She frowned slightly and stood still at the door.
"Whatâs wrong with me?"
Jiang Jinsang looked at the person on the video with a smile. They were all clever people; there was almost no need to say much for each to understand the other.
Zhou Zhongqing cursed internally:
Damned kid!
Could his acting be that poor? Already seen through by him.
They are a couple, after all, and things are like this between them.
Still, Zhou Zhongqing continued to be stubborn and uttered some harsh words, "Iâm telling you, your body hasnât recovered. With a congenital condition like yours, how could it be so easily cured?"
"You might not live much longer."
"Is that so?" Jiang Jinsang knew he was just being stubborn and laughed it off, but Tang Wan, standing at the door, felt completely different inside.
Seeing him like this, Zhou Zhongqing became even angrier, this little rascal, so arrogant?
"Your body might seem fine now, but who knows when itâll give out? Youâve only got a short time left to make the most of it. Hurry up, while youâre still alive, maybe youâll manage to have a son or a daughter."
"Have you said these things to Wanwan?" Jiang Jinsang knew he was doing it on purpose and didnât care.
"If she likes you and you tell her that, wonât it just break her heart?"
"Who knows, maybe I can live to a ripe old age? Why worry about these things?"
...
While these two were still bantering,
Tang Wan was utterly confused. What was going on?
Wasnât his illness supposed to be cured? Could it come back? A ticking time bomb?
Her heart felt as if it had suddenly dropped into an ice cellar, indescribable discomfort enveloping her. Her head felt heavy, and as she returned to her room, her eyes brimmed with unshed tears. Yet, fearing her family would notice something was off, she could only grit her teeth and endure.
That evening, after Jiang Jinsang had helped Taotao finish her homework as usual, he went to Tang Wanâs place to bid her goodnight. If it were any other day, her roomâs door would be locked, but today it turned open with a twist...
His lips slowly curved up, it seemed she had cooled down from her anger. He hadnât even stepped inside when he saw Tang Wan suddenly dash out from inside and throw herself into his arms.
"Wanwan?" Jiang Jinsang frowned. What was going on?
She had been acting strange at dinner that day, and now she was being so forward all of a sudden.
"Let me hug you for a while."
Hearing their conversation, maybe it was because of these past two years, he could very well live a long and healthy life.
Tang Wan had been anxious for hours, even if Jiang Jinsang wasnât sick, life was unpredictable. Who could guarantee that an accident wouldnât happen tomorrow? Instead of worrying over potential accidents, it was better to cherish the present.
With the warmth and fragrance of her soft body in his embrace, Jiang Jinsang was naturally very pleased, especially since Tang Wan was unusually passionate that night.
For a man, a wifeâs initiative and warmth are naturally good things.
But when this continued for several consecutive days, Jiang Jinsang couldnât help but feel puzzled...
"Sheâs shy and tender during the day, so why does she seem like a different person at night?"
He had tried to question Tang Wan indirectly, and she just smiled at him, "Do you like it when Iâm like this?"
Jiang Jinsang really wanted to say he liked it more than life itself, but he vaguely felt something was amiss.
After all, there hadnât been any recent incidents. Her studio had already been running smoothly, with Chen Zhi assisting externally, so she didnât have to worry about anything, and her days were quite normal too. Why all of a sudden...
But for him, this was naturally a good thing.
Tang Wan considered that Jiang Jinsang hadnât told her about this matter because he didnât want to worry her. So she pretended to be unaware, even though in her heart she kept pondering over Zhou Zhongqingâs words...
In his lifetime, he might not even have one son or daughter.
Although this matter was uncertain, and Jiang Jinsang might as well live a long life, Tang Wan ultimately felt a bit upset, which was why she was extra cooperative with him at night.
The relationship between husband and wife was naturally harmonious and extra sweet.
At this moment, Jiang Jinsang had no idea that Tang Wanâs change was because she believed he could pass away at any moment... At this point, he was still somewhat complacent.
**
After thinking about it for a few days, Tang Wan kept feeling she might be worrying over nothing. People are prone to thinking negatively, and seeing that Jiang Jinsang appeared healthy, she might just be overthinking entirely.
Meanwhile, a small incident occurred at the studio, which completely diverted her attention.
"Wanwan, this is my oversight at work. I didnât pay attention to the online messages in time, and I didnât expect the situation to have become so serious."
For someone Chen Zhiâs age, he naturally didnât spend much time on the internet.
"It was You Congrongâs fans who stirred this up. They were happy about the previous collaboration, but you embarrassed her. There were already many people badmouthing you online."
"They said her collaborating with us was her giving us face. I didnât expect that even after so long, her fans still hold a grudge against you."
...
Tang Wan scrolled through her phone, the trending topic read:
[Tang Wanâs Studio Involved in Copyright Infringement]
Tang Wanâs studio had taken on the hair accessory work for "Feng Que," which was quite well known in the fandom. If the copyright infringement allegations held up, it could have significant impact on the entire show, inevitably affecting the actors involved.
With so many popular stars in the show, once their fans considered that their idols could be affected, they would undoubtedly explode...
Which is why this hot search topic quickly rose to the front.
And Qi Zeyan, as the biggest investor, was also quickly dragged into the fray.
