Chapter 101: 099 The Whole City Watching, Dog Bites Dog (3 More Updates) Chapter 101: 099 The Whole City Watching, Dog Bites Dog (3 More Updates) Tang Family Old Mansion
When Tang Wan and Jiang Jinsang headed back, it was nearing the wee hours past midnight, only the Hua i bird in the corridor chirped twice.
Entering the backyard, Tang Wan turned her head towards the person beside her, “I made you run around with again tonight…”
“It’s okay, don’t overthink it, rest early.”
Tang Wan nodded, pushed open the door into the dark room. After a half-night of exhaustion, she was weary both in body and mind and couldn’t be bothered to turn on the lights. She knew the layout of her childhood ho too well and groped in the dark toward the bed, her fingers searching for the edge of the bed, preparing to sit down…
Her quilt was usually neatly spread out on the bed, but now it was a ss, her fingers reached out further by an inch.
A warm, soft object–it was clearly a person, and her scalp tingled instantly…
There was soone on her bed!
Tang Wan imdiately went to turn on the light, panicking as she knocked over a stool by the side.
…
Jiang Jinsang hadn’t gone back to his room yet. He wanted to call his elder brother but then thought Jiangjiang might be sleeping inside. Worried he would wake him, he decided to make the call before entering.
Suddenly, he heard the grating sound of a stool scraping across the floor from Tang Wan’s room, accompanied by her suppressed moans.
He couldn’t care less at this mont and pushed the door open directly. Fortunately, it wasn’t locked from the inside. Although her room was arranged differently from Jiang Jinsang’s, the switch locations were the sa. He found the switch beside the door and turned on the light.
“Snap—” The ceiling light turned on, and Jiang Jinsang could see the situation inside.
Tang Wan had overturned a stool and was now sitting on the carpet, seemingly frightened. As she looked up at him, her eyes filled with waves, and on the bed…
His little nephew was sprawled out, having kicked off the quilt, revealing a round little belly.
Despite all the noise, he hadn’t woken up.
Tang Wan recognized the person on the bed and breathed a sigh of relief, “You scared to death. I thought soone was lying on my bed…”
“Miss Tang, I apologize. The young master wanted to wait for you in your room, got sleepy, and refused to leave, eventually falling asleep on your bed.” A Jiang Family mber hurriedly ca out to explain, “We are really sorry.”
They had co back too late, and the Jiang Family was already drowsy, not having had the chance to explain the situation to her on ti.
“It’s okay.” Tang Wan waved her hand nonchalantly, her hands moving towards the edge of the bed, preparing to stand up when an extra hand appeared before her.
“I’ll help you up.”
“No need.”
Despite what Tang Wan said, the spot where she had fallen was slightly narrow. Without so external help, it would have been an awkward struggle to get up.
Seeing his predicant, Jiang Jinsang remained silent but reached out, lightly grasping her wrist propped on the bed.
His fingers were long and well-defined, but like his complexion, they were so pale they seed bloodless. Yet his palms were warm, his fingers slid slightly upwards, catching hers and gently pulled, “Co on, get up.”
With his help, Tang Wan easily got to her feet, but Jiang Jinsang seed to have used too much force, causing her to stumble towards him…
Her feet faltered, and she fell right into his arms.
His other hand instinctively reached out, landing on her waist, steadying her firmly.
The Jiang Family mbers standing at the doorstep:
Intentional!
This must be an intentional act by their Fifth Master!
Having just co in from the outside, both carried the coolness of the night. Yet as they leaned against each other, the coolness seed to dissolve instantly, their heartbeats quickened, and their breaths grew hotter.
Tang Wan leaning in his embrace could hear his steady, forceful heartbeat hitting her ears one after another, causing her heart to flutter uneasily.
“Take it slow.” His voice was close at hand, his breath warm as it brushed her neck…
Searing.
As if it could ignite soone’s skin.
The Jiang Family mbers were dumbfounded:
Their Fifth Master was indeed outrageous, intentionally stirring things up and yet asking others to be cautious? How shaless.
“Uh-huh.” Tang Wan nodded, her voice muffled, slightly twisting her body to free herself from his embrace.
Jiang Jinsang then let go of his hold, his expression calm yet sowhat helpless as he looked at the person sleeping on the bed, “I’ll carry him away now, so you can rest easy.”
“No worries, my bed is quite big, it can fit two people. He’s already asleep, let’s not wake him now. It’s late; you should rest too.”
The two casually chatted for a few more monts before Tang Wan saw him out, closed the door, and subconsciously touched her lower back where he had held her.
In this season, everyone was wearing several layers, his finger’s warmth shouldn’t have seeped through clothes, but Tang Wan felt the place he touched to be unnaturally poignant.
