Chapter 1429: Chapter 819: Flirting with Death, and Still Accompanying His Father-in-Law? (Part 2)

"I come here often, I’ve almost tried everything. Is there anything special you want to do?"

"How about we go on a yacht outing?" Jiang Chengsi looked at her, his eyes seemed to be shining.

Si Qingxiao’s face instantly turned completely red.

The last time she was on a yacht outing, she didn’t really enjoy anything, they anchored the yacht at sea and ended up having a reckless escapade with him on the ocean. Thinking about it now, she still felt her face flush...

Si Yushan, after all, is an elder. No matter how old Jiang Chengsi gets, in his eyes, he’s always just a child. Plus, he knows nothing about finance, suddenly learning these things is indeed exhausting, and the regular pressure is immense, not expecting trouble again in Beijing.

Jiang Chengsi gives everyone the impression of being straightforward and harmless, direct and without guile.

This incident with the bar was also an unforeseen misfortune.

So when Assistant Yuan told him that he and his daughter were going out on a yacht cruise, he didn’t think much of it.

He assumed they were going on a cruise to relax...

Who knew, within that short time, he did countless indescribable things with Si Qingxiao on the yacht using his issued work.

**

Jiang Shiyi went home, took two showers, and still felt uncomfortable. After coming out of the bathroom and washing the clothes he changed out of, he noticed a call from the director. Since Lin Luyou wasn’t feeling well before, he had been on leave until now.

"Hello, Director, do you need something?"

"How’s Xiaolin feeling?"

"Hm?" Jiang Shiyi frowned.

"Weren’t you on leave to take care of her? Were you not with her the whole time?" Their affair wasn’t public in the lab, everyone had a clue, especially with his bizarre reason for taking leave, which really opened the director’s eyes.

Is this how young people have fun nowadays?

"She’s been staying at her own home these past few days." Jiang Shiyi explained.

"No wonder. I was wondering why she came out to work on her own; I was at the police station just now and ran into the young officer who was in the same team with Xiaolin last night. He said she didn’t seem well last night, tried calling her, but got no answer, so I thought I’d ask you."

The director laughed, "Since she’s at her own home with family looking after her, it should be fine. Since you don’t need to take care of her, come back to work early."

"Okay." Jiang Shiyi responded but had different thoughts on his mind.

And when he called Lin Luyou, there was no answer. He glanced at the time, it was 4:30 PM, she shouldn’t be asleep now, where could she be?

As he pondered...

At that moment, Jiang Jinsang called.

"Third Brother, are you free tonight?"

"What’s up?"

"Dad is having dinner with Uncle Si tonight. My brother and I will be there. Dad thinks if you’re free, come join for a drink. After all, he might become Fourth Brother’s father-in-law, and you and Fourth Brother are real brothers."

"Okay, send me the address."

Obviously, Jiang Zhenhuan was doing this to strengthen their relationship with the Si Family.

But if he calls both families over, it seems too formal, as if they’re really discussing marriage, which it’s not at that stage yet, so he only asks the juniors to accompany.

"I’ll send it to you in a bit, hurry over." Jiang Jinsang said, planning to hang up the phone.

"Hold on." Jiang Shiyi stopped him.

"What’s up?"

"Can you have your people help me with a mobile location search?"

"Team Leader Lin?" Jiang Jinsang guessed right away, and Jiang Shiyi didn’t deny it, "Wait a moment, I’ll have someone check."

Jiang Jinsang acted quickly and soon sent over the mobile location. It was a residence area, and Jiang Shiyi pursed his lips—it was her home address, so she should still be at home. Is she really sleeping?

Since she started feeling unwell, she seems to be more prone to sleeping.

As someone in scientific research, regular sleep time is scarce, fully immersed in work, suddenly relaxing completely, they don’t know what to do with themselves, so it’s normal for her to sleep a lot, after all, she needs to take care of her health.

Jiang Shiyi was still thinking about Lin Luyou even as he headed to the hotel.

Upon entering the room, Si Yushan was discussing current events and politics with Jiang Zhenhuan, "Uncle, Uncle Si—"

"Shiyi is here, come sit." Jiang Zhenhuan smiled.

Jiang Shiyi was a bit sullen. Because of Jiang Chengsi’s incident today, he was already furious, and now he couldn’t get in touch with his little girl, yet he still had to keep someone company.

What’s all this about!

Is this the debt from his past life that he owed as an elder brother?

As Jiang Chengsi’s elder brother, he cannot always leave things for Jiang Yanting and Jiang Jinsang to handle since they also have to return home to take care of their wives and children, so entertaining and drinking falls on him.

After spending the day getting someone’s car serviced and cleaning his house, now he’s supposed to keep his future father-in-law company?

The more Jiang Shiyi thought about it, the more stifled he felt.

Even during the little break, he sent messages to Lin Luyou, but there was no reply, making him worry.

Possibly due to the somber mood, combined with the fact that Si Yushan was an elder, when drinking with him, he just drank freely, and before he knew it, he was showing signs of inebriation.

"Stop drinking. It’s meant to add joy, not to overdrink. It’s not comfortable after a certain point." Si Yushan was in a good mood today.

He and Jiang Zhenhuan had long known each other and had met on certain occasions before. Even at You Yunzhi’s previous birthday party, they hadn’t had a proper chat, which was a regret for meeting too late. They also planned to go fishing and golfing in the future.

"Let’s have some main dishes then." Jiang Zhenhuan laughed.

The few of them were in good spirits, but since everyone had some drinks, it wasn’t convenient for anyone to escort the other home. The Si family had someone waiting outside, and after sending Si Yushan off to the car, Jiang Zhenhuan looked at Jiang Shiyi, patting his shoulder, "You sure drank a lot tonight."

"Not that much." Jiang Shiyi said, but he was already a bit unsteady and wobbly when walking.

"Do you want to stay at the old house tonight?"

"No, I’ll go home."

"Can you manage on your own? Chengsi isn’t home."

"Even if he were home, what good would it do; could he take care of me?"

Jiang Zhenhuan was at a loss for words, while Jiang Jinsang coughed twice. Even drunk, he’s still a sharp tongue; indeed a nature hard to change, "Let me arrange a driver for Brother Three then."

At the hotel entrance, there were already many drivers waiting; Jiang Jinsang called one over, sent Jiang Shiyi to the car, reminded him of the address, and had the driver take him home.

**

The car was already driving towards Hexi. Jiang Shiyi initially felt groggy but thought the air inside the car was too stuffy, so he opened the window. Even though summer was coming, there was still a chill in the night wind. The breeze cleared his mind quite a bit.

He took out his phone; there was still no reply from Lin Luyou.

When he dialed the call, no one answered.

Already irritable after drinking, it was past 9 PM, and Lin Luyou would never do this. Jiang Shiyi couldn’t help but worry if something had happened to her.

"Master..."

"Third Master, do you feel unwell, or are you thirsty?" the driver, thinking he had drank too much, assumed he either wanted to throw up or have some water.

"Please drive to Tianfu Aristocratic Family."

"Hm?" The driver paused, the residential complex is quite far from Hexi, "Are you sure?"

"Yes."

"Alright." The driver quickly turned the car around, heading northeast. Not going home at this hour, where is he going? He was curious but didn’t dare to ask more.
