Chapter 1411: Chapter 810: Has the Little Girl Been Led Astray? The Veteran Driver Tempts the Naive Girl (Part 2)
Jiang Shiyi came to pick her up, but Ruan Mengxi had already left early, leaving only her and Tang Wan sitting in a coffee shop.
The girl who left the house dressed prim and proper in the morning seemed like a different person after a day.
The light yellow dress, though not too short as it covered the knees, cinched at a slender waist, revealing tender white calves.
Maybe itâs because sheâs been in the lab away from sunlight all year round; her skin is slightly fairer than usual, and those legs were flaunting in front of Jiang Shiyi...
Unmovable to the eyes.
As he couldnât take his eyes off, naturally, there were also passersby who took a few extra glances.
Someone felt a bit displeased deep down.
"Third brother, here she is, safe and sound, handed over to you." Tang Wan smiled.
"Thank you." Jiang Shiyi casually took a few shopping bags handed by Lin Luyou, looking at her with an odd expression, not happy, rather somewhat displeased, leaving Lin Luyou puzzled.
Is it the clothes that donât look good?
Or does he...
Not like this style?
Jiang Shiyi looked at Tang Wan, "How will you go back? Iâll drive you."
"No need, fifth brother will be off work soon and will come to pick me up. Iâll wait for a while, you guys go ahead." Tang Wan wasnât senseless enough to tag along with them.
After bidding farewell, Jiang Shiyi and Lin Luyou left...
Jiang Shiyi carried the bags, taking large strides, leaving Lin Luyou behind within a few steps, watching Tang Wan in surprise.
Is this how third brother chases after his sister-in-law?
No wonder the atmosphere between these two always feels weird.
But after a few steps, Jiang Shiyi realized the problem and deliberately slowed down to wait for her, albeit saying nothing. His silent demeanor was somewhat amusing.
...
When Jiang Jinsang arrived at the coffee shop, he saw Tang Wan standing by the door giggling, yet noticed nothing interesting when following her gaze.
"What are you looking at?"
"Youâre here."
"Hmm." Jiang Jinsang habitually tossed everything to Jiang Cuo to carry, holding his wifeâs hand as they walked. With the child born, they seemed sweet, though Jiang Cuo, loaded with things, trotted behind pitifully.
As soon as they got in the car, Tang Wan proudly took out what she bought for Jiang Jinsang.
"I chose a suit for you, along with two shirts, as itâs getting hot now, this fabric feels more comfortable. Try them at home to see if they fit."
"Oh, I also bought you a pair of shoes, which I think look pretty good."
"Thereâs a store with clothes that suit you well. We can check it out together sometime."
...
With his wife buying things for him, Jiang Jinsang felt delightful, enjoying the mood throughout the trip, even considering taking wife and child out during the weekend.
But upon arriving home, he found his things were just a tiny portion, and the rest were for Little Crooked-Neck Tree.
His stuff seemed like complimentary gifts.
A heart brimming with warmth abruptly chilled by a basin of cold water.
Seeing him glum, Jiang Zhenhuan patted his shoulder, "Whatâs this? Upset that your stuff is less than your sonâs?"
"No." Jealous over his son - too childish. Jiang Jinsang merely felt uncomfortable that, so soon after marriage, his wifeâs attention wasnât on him.
Jealously is certainly something he wouldnât admit.
"Whatâs there to be upset about, huh? Back when you and your brother were born, particularly you, being unhealthy, your mother stayed tirelessly at the hospital for months, barely resting at home. I, the husband, was practically neglected. Did I say anything? Did I complain?"
Jiang Jinsang coughed slightly:
Werenât you just complaining?
"As for you and your brother, your brother, more sensible, though didnât require our worry, was the first child and got much attention. Your mother practically ignored me at the time. Then when you were born, things got even more outrageous, unhealthy, the whole familyâs focus shifted to you..."
Jiang Jinsang felt a headache, originally seeking peace at his fatherâs place but unexpectedly encountering many complaints.
Generally the quiet type, Jiang Zhenhuan seemed to open up a chatterbox recalling his âtragicâ past of being ignored by his wife.
But Jiang Jinsang couldnât say much, merely contemplating being more filial to parents in the future.
Parched, Jiang Zhenhuan sipped hot tea, glancing at Jiang Jinsang, "Feeling that compared to me, isnât it nice of Wanwan to even remember buying you clothes?"
"Dad, have you been going through anything lately?"
"Whatâs wrong with me?"
Jiang Jinsang chuckled shaking his head, but opened his phone to search:
[Male Menopause]
...
With Jiang Zhenhuan suddenly talking so much, Jiang Jinsang couldnât help but suspect his father was undergoing male menopause, "Dad, have you been feeling fatigued, backache, or dizziness with vivid dreams recently?"
"Whatâre you implying?" Jiang Zhenhuan raised an eyebrow.
"Nothing, just asking." Jiang Jinsang smiled as he put away his phone.

Meanwhile
Jiang Shiyi drove Lin Luyou towards Hexi, already remote from the city; the farther west, the less traffic, with music playing inside. Jiang Shiyi seemed in a bad mood, and Lin Luyou had no idea what was wrong, simply ignoring him.
This left Jiang Shiyi somewhat frustrated.
Without speaking, this girl frankly started playing on her phone, ignoring him entirely. Did she really take him as a driver or a nanny?
"Your clothes, newly bought? Who helped you pick them?" Jiang Shiyi suddenly asked.
"Sister Xixi." Lin Luyou unexpectedly became quite familiar with Ruan Mengxi over the afternoon.
Sister?
Jiang Shiyi tapped his cheek with his tongue, and indeed, this wasnât Tang Wanâs style. Itâs her, alright.
Originally, Lin Luyou dressed conservatively, no need to doll up in the lab. But now, going out just once, he somehow felt his little girl was led astray.
If she went out a few more times, her heart might just fly away.
Noticing his slightly displeased face again, Lin Luyou was even more puzzled. What did he mean by that random remark?
Not only did Ruan Mengxi pick clothes for Lin Luyou, she also formed a small group, which included Tang Wan, Shen Shuci, Shen Zhixian, among others. Tang Wan even added Si Qingxiao, and now the group was buzzing.
But as Lin Luyou wasnât familiar with them, she hardly spoke.
Si Qingxiao was curious: [Whoâs the Little Deer Drinking Water avatar?]
Tang Wan: [Leader Lin from the lab, you saw her at the birthday party before, should remember.]
Realization dawned on Si Qingxiao, who specifically mentioned Lin Luyou, expressing thanks and apologies.
[No need for thanks, just my job.]
Ruan Mengxi seized Lin Luyou upon her emergence, asking excitedly: [So, did his gaze stay glued on you when you wore that outfit?]
[Let me tell you, men are visual creatures, dressing attractively is never wrong.]
[To capture a manâs heart, you should...]
...
[And ties, besides wearing, have other uses.]
Lin Luyou frowned, what else could ties do? She was completely baffled.
Tang Wan felt a headache, the undisciplined veteran already starting to mislead young ones again.
Obviously, she wasnât some relationship guru, sheâd made quite a mess with Qi Zeyan, now refusing to speak of it, yet flaunting her expert facade again.
That sense was like leading naive girls astray.
Glancing at the driver, not only wasnât he focused, but was practically ignoring her.
Indeed...
With his picky and particular nature, he couldnât be understood with normal thinking, huh.
