Chapter 1421: Chapter 816: Chain Reaction: Third Brother Sets a Trap, Xiaosi Loses Everything (2)
Tonight, thereās absolutely no way anyone would dare take such a risk; if whatās found are just common party drugs, these things have dedicated shops selling them and theyāre not illegal.
But if these things are found in special circumstances, even if the police clarify later that theyāre not prohibited items, Jiang Chengsi would likely still get implicated.
If someone deliberately stirs trouble, itās like exploiting a loophole.
"Tomorrow will surely still be unsettled, best to rest early," the old lady leaned on her cane, motioning for Jiang Shiyi to help her into the house, "Old Three, stay here tonight."
"Grandma, Iām still wearing... Iād like to go home and take a shower." Jiang Shiyi hurried out, wearing only loungewear under his coat.
This kind of clothing he would never normally wear out, but at that time it was urgent, and now having gone out once, he felt dirty already.
"Itās okay, Xiaowu, go find your third brother a set of clothes to change into."
Jiang Jinsang frowned without saying anything.
"Why are you standing there dumbfounded? Wanwan bought you a bunch of clothes the other day, didnāt she? You canāt wear them all anyway, besides, this person is your third brother, not an outsider."
Jiang Jinsang took a deep breath:
Are these brothers toxic or what, previously even Xiaosi borrowed his clothes, and now itās his brotherās turn?
Why should the things his wife buys be for them to wear? Let their own wives buy for them.
Jiang Jinsang grumbled internally but was still prepared to go back to his room to find a set of clothes for him. Everyone in the family knew about this particular personās cleanliness obsession; having gone to the bar tonight, he probably couldnāt stand it.
"Xiaowu, no need to get clothes, Iām not used to wearing other peopleās stuff."
He said it politely, but Jiang Jinsang wasnāt dumb, it wasnāt about not being used to it...
It was clearly disdain.
Jiang Shiyi followed the old lady back to her room, she talked to him about Jiang Chengsiās situation, "...donāt call and scold him, this kind of thing is beyond his control. When your brother left, you went abroad, it was tough for Chengsi, though he played wildly, he didnāt stray down the wrong path, this is quite good."
He nodded in agreement, "Itās mostly triggered by car racing."
"Previously he needed an emotional outlet, you werenāt concerned about him, where else could he vent his emotions?"
"Iāll pay more attention to him in the future."
...
Jiang Chengsi originally thought that tonight was doomed, todayās incident was clearly someone deliberately targeting him, and dragging his brother into it.
His brother dislikes trouble, is a clean freak, and almost never goes to places like bars.
Anyway, tonightās events, thanks to him, even if he got scolded a few times, it was worth it.
But when the call got through, Jiang Shiyi surprisingly started acting like a caring older brother, asking if he was under too much pressure that he went racing, and said if thereās anything bothering him, he could come to him.
"Bro? Are you serious?"
Si Qingxiao and Assistant Yuan were beside him, waiting for the situation to be handled, seeing Jiang Chengsiās looks they were amused.
Isnāt it good for his brother to be concerned about him?
His expression clearly showed...
If you donāt scold me, donāt hit me, I feel uneasy.
A masochist?
"Yeah." Jiang Shiyi nodded, "Howās work going lately, any pressure?"
"Quite a bit, donāt know anything, have to start learning from scratch."
"If you donāt know, ask, donāt pretend you understand when you donāt." After talking for a while, Jiang Shiyi finally circled back to car racing, "Race less in the future, itās dangerous, youāre not alone now, think about your girlfriend."
Jiang Chengsi really wanted to tell him, he even takes his wife racing with him.
But tonight he behaved, refraining from provoking Jiang Shiyi, "Bro, I know, you see, Iām in Nanjiang now, the cars I drive are all company assigned, so busy like a dog, whereās the time and energy to race."
"What about when you return to Beijing after...?"
"Wonāt race anymore." Jiang Chengsi was just casually placating his brother.
Tonightās incident really troubled his brother, so naturally, he must go along with his words.
"Then promise me one thing."
"Say it."
"Since you say you wonāt race anymore, then let your cars be under my care temporarily."
"..."
Only then did Jiang Chengsi realize, his brother babbled on, plotting to trap him.
It hit like lightning, his ears buzzing.
"Didnāt you say the Si Familyās marital home doesnāt suit living, planning to move back? When you left initially, didnāt take much luggage, right? Only those cars in the garage, Iāll find people to bring the cars back to Beijing while youāre not here, keep them in our garage, Iāll keep an eye on them for you."
Jiang Shiyi had already thought it through, ninety percent of Jiang Chengsiās "Chou Family" conflicts stemmed from car racing, so might as well cut it off at the source.
