No matter what, the Jiang Family needs a big cleanup.
Moreover, what is joined for long must divide; having such a large family living together may not be a good thing. With so many people, hearts become scattered.
Distant fragrance seems sweet, but close proximity can stink. Living together all the time might allow certain people to develop inappropriate thoughts.
As for the other person...
Chiang Xiao also regrets not being able to ask who this person is.
"Itâs a woman."
"A woman?"
In such a big family as the Jiang Family, there are naturally quite a few women. How can this be investigated?
"We can slowly investigate this person. I feel that once things with the Lu Family come out in the next few days, many people wonât be able to remain calm."
Chiang Xiao looked at Jiang Shiheng, "So, Dad, just have people keep a closer watch. You can always find traces; you canât hide fire with paper. Eventually, weâll catch the person."
Jiang Shiheng nodded, "Yes, Iâll keep an eye on this matter. Grandpa, donât worry too much, letâs eat first."
Old Master Jiang sighed heavily.
"Great-grandpa, itâs better to be in a good mood while eating. Itâs my fault; I shouldnât have brought this up so soon."
"How can it be your fault? You are our familyâs little hero."
"Why not a big hero? Is my contribution not big enough?" Chiang Xiao pouted.
Old Master Jiang couldnât help but burst into laughter because of her jest.
"Yes, yes, you are a big hero. I thought since you were young, I would say little hero, but this girl doesnât like it."
Being teased and interrupted by Chiang Xiao, Old Master Jiangâs mood finally improved.
Several people finished dinner, and Old Master Jiang wanted to go for a walk. Jiang Shiheng should still be "recovering" and not see anyone, so he didnât go out. Chiang Xiao also shouldnât see anyone yet, so she didnât go out.
The father and daughter stayed in the study, having tea and chatting.
Chiang Xiao suddenly looked at Jiang Shiheng and pointed out, "Dad, are you having a headache?"
Jiang Shiheng was startled and did not expect that despite his good control, he couldnât hide it from Chiang Xiaoâs eyes.
He could only nod in acknowledgment.
"Is it the aftereffects of the surgery?"
"Probably not," Jiang Shiheng said, "It feels related to memory. Recently, I always feel I should recall something, but my memory is always blurry. Maybe Iâm becoming a bit anxious myself, causing the headache."
Chiang Xiao handed a bottle of Potion over.
Jiang Shiheng took it without hesitation, smiled lightly, and unscrewed the lid to drink.
Drinking the Potion indeed made him feel much more relaxed.
"Little, this Potion is really effective."
And that Jade Beads...
But Jiang Shiheng didnât mention the Jade Beads at all.
That was given to him by Chiang Xiao. Now, thereâs also one on his wrist. This Zhuzhu has its mystery, but he didnât want to ask Chiang Xiao.
If itâs something she wants to talk about, sheâll tell him sooner or later.
If she doesnât bring it up, itâs because she doesnât want to tell him yet. So, he chooses to respect his daughter.
"Iâll leave a few more bottles for Dad. Iâll also give some to Sun Han; Dad, be sure to take it with you when you go out."
"Alright."
To Chiang Xiaoâs words, he could only nod in agreement.
"And, Dad, the things you said that you canât remember, the memory should gradually recover, donât rush it. I learned quite a few things today that I think Dad will be interested in."
"Oh?"
"The first thing," Chiang Xiao reached into her pocket and pulled out Lu Shuangshuangâs Ruby Necklace and handed it to Jiang Shiheng. "Dad, look, what is this?"
