Chapter 1225: Chapter 716: Revelation upon Meeting! A Thunderbolt Stuns Everyone
Beijing in February, the cold wind was like a sharp knife, cutting to the bone, Jiang Chengsi was slightly underdressed, his phoenix-like frame slender, with less arrogance than usual, standing in the sunlight, casually handsome.
Indeed, he had a somewhat unique and elegant demeanor.
After Jiang Cuo honked the horn, Jiang Chengsi picked up the items placed to one side and crossed the road.
"Fourth Brother has been quite different these past few days." Tang Wan tilted her head, observing the approaching figure, "Itās like heās less sharp, and it makes people feel more comfortable."
Jiang Chengsi was called an oddball because he exuded a restless energy, rebellious yet uninhibited, unconventional.
Jiang Jinsangās lips curved up, "Actually, when Big Cousin hadnāt left, Fourth Brother was just like this, very sunny."
"Looks like heās encountered some good fortune lately."
As Tang Wan finished speaking, Jiang Chengsi had already pulled open the carās passenger door and greeted them.
"Ahā" Jiang Xiaowai saw him and was a bit excited, reaching out seemingly for a hug.
"Iām too cold right now, Iāll hug you later." Jiang Chengsi had stood at the intersection for a long time, and while his body wasnāt cold, his clothes had long been pierced by the chilly wind.
Little kids have weaker resistance, and if he caught cold and sneezed, the old lady would surely give him a good beating later.
Jiang Chengsi adjusted the carās warm air conditioning vents, complaining, "Why are you only arriving now, Iāve been waiting a long time."
"Maybe itās because of the Lantern Festival, there was a bit of a traffic jam on the road," Tang Wan explained.
"By the way, I also brought some gifts for the Si Family." Jiang Chengsi gestured to the gift box in his hand.
"What did you buy?" Jiang Jinsang inquired.
"Nothing much, Mr. Si likes to play chess, so I bought a chess set and some tea leaves."
"Fourth Brother." Tang Wan looked at him askance, "Is there something going on with you lately?"
Jiang Chengsiās fingers paused in adjusting his clothes, "Something going on? What do you mean?"
"I mean, in your love life, perhaps?" Tang Wan rested her chin on her hand, watching him.
She hadnāt heard anything about him buying a car recently, so she could only guess about his personal life.
"No." Jiang Chengsi replied with certainty.
He thought, with that "Miss Xiao," he had just taken the first step, she hadnāt even agreed to be with him.
Moreover, he still didnāt know her name or any basic information, so even if he told his family that he had someone he cared about, when they asked who she was, heād have nothing to say, which was far too ridiculous.
Theyād agreed to clarify things next time they met, so Jiang Chengsi didnāt plan to tell his family about it at this time.
The most crucial part was, there was also a scheming person in the car.
Jiang Chengsi glanced sideways at Jiang Jinsang, who was holding the child; if he found out, it would be a disaster!
"Really none?" Tang Wan clearly didnāt believe him, but since he wasnāt willing to talk about it now, she wouldnāt press further.
But Jiang Jinsang, coaxing the child on one side, looked at him:
"Fourth Brother, are you sure you donāt need my help with your issues?"
This was something Jiang Chengsi himself had previously said: not to meddle.
"I think some things, itās better to remind you. For example, have you ever thought about, her..."
"Jiang Xiaowu!" Jiang Chengsi frowned, cutting him off abruptly, "Donāt worry about my affairs, just take good care of your sister-in-law and the child, donāt run your mouth, donāt cause trouble, or donāt blame me for disregarding our brotherly bond."
"Iām just kindly reminding you."
"Kindness from you?" Jiang Chengsi retorted, "You were a black-hearted brat since childhood, sis-in-law, let me tell you, he was secretly naughty as a kid, and now he talks about conscience?"
"Fourth Brother, Iām just looking out for you."
Having grown up together, Jiang Jinsang could see that Fourth Brother and that "Miss Xiao," their relationship had clearly become different.
Being so bold as to visit the Si Family, he probably hadnāt figured out the other partyās background yet.
Sometimes Jiang Chengsi wasnāt foolish, but...
He didnāt even know who she was, yet he still had feelings for her, truly clumsy.
"Stay out of my business, then youāll really be doing me good." Jiang Chengsi snorted lightly.
"Do you know who the other person is? Just diving headlong into it, what if sheās deceiving you, with scams for your heart or money?" Jiang Jinsang spoke directly.
Although Jiang Chengsi still didnāt know her background or family situation, he knew she was a good girl, and heād already plunged into the river of love. Hearing Jiang Jinsang say she was a scammer, he was a bit peeved...
What does he mean, couldnāt he stand seeing him do well?
Saying sheās a scammer, if she really were, would she have bothered to make clothes for him, and the cuffs she gave were worth quite a bit.
If she really were a scammer, she went to quite some effort to deceive him.
