After Jiang Chengsi returned ho, he specially opened the video on the computer. He had watched this surveillance footage countless tis before and analyzed it for a long ti. Perhaps it was psychological, but he always felt like this person was her.
In the restaurant, he wanted to directly ask. If she admitted it, what should he do? And if it wasn’t her...
This dilemma in his heart, saying he would teach her to drive, was just an excuse to observe her carefully.
On the other hand, over at the Si Family, an old father, after eating dinner, wandered around the living room. It took a long ti for his daughter to return, and he scrutinized her carefully.
"Dad, what are you looking at?" She frowned.
"What did you eat with your friends tonight? Do you want to make sothing else?"
"No, I’m full. When did Uncle leave today?"
"Around one or two in the afternoon. Don’t ntion it. Today, the man he brought over, if he bothers you, rember to tell . You Hongxian’s intentions are perfectly clear to ."
"Got it, you should go rest. Don’t you have work tomorrow..."
She sent her father back to his room and after taking a shower, saw the ssage Jiang Chengsi sent her, telling her to wait at the usual spot at eight tomorrow.
Before she could reply, another ssage popped up:
[Miss Si, hello. I’m the one who visited your ho today. I’m truly sorry to disturb you at this ti...]
She pursed her lips, thinking to herself:
Her dad really has a knack for predicting things. This person actually ca to "bother" her.
They were all adults. Who couldn’t see through those little sches in others’ hearts? She didn’t want any entanglent with that person, so she didn’t even give the courtesy of a reply and directly ignored the ssage.
If the other party had any self-awareness, they should understand her attitude and stop pestering.
But later events proved that she underestimated soone’s desire for money and power, and even more so, underestimated his shalessness.

The next morning, the sky was painted with clouds, the winter sun was warm, making it a rare good weather.
Jiang Chengsi was eager to see what she looked like while driving. After scheduling a ti, he woke up early to see Ruan ngxi’s ssage reminding him not to forget the interview, realizing he had other things to deal with today.
Teaching her to drive and attending the interview didn’t conflict.
He picked her up and directly drove to the club. It was rare for him to dress formally today, and he didn’t ride his motorcycle.
"Do you have other plans today?" she looked at the person beside her. The light and shadow made his features more handso and defined.
"There’s an interview at the club; I need to check it out."
"Will I be a bother to you?"
"It’s no bother."
She turned her head to look out the window. An interview? A bride selection?
She had thought about whether to apply for a job, but later realized the risk was too high.
Firstly, the interview docunts are difficult to fake. Even if she could pull it off, the follow-up paperwork would require real identification. Her parents would definitely question her leaving for work, and it’d be impossible to keep everything under wraps.
She didn’t expect him to take her to the club today. To be honest, she also wanted to see how the legendary fourth master’s bride selection would turn out.

anwhile, at the Jiang Mansion
Jiang Jinsang was standing under the eaves, holding his son, basking in the sun. In the windless, snowless winter, the sun on him was still very warm.
"Xiaowu." The old lady walked over, "There’s sothing you need to check on."
"What is it?" Jiang Jinsang saw her serious expression.
"That club of Chengsi’s, didn’t you invest in it?"
He nodded.
"Today, they’re recruiting new staff at the club. There’s talk everywhere that the kid is selecting a bride. Do you think I don’t know what’s on his mind? If he had such awareness, I’d be at ease."
Jiang Jinsang laughed, "You want to go take a look? To supervise his ’bride selection’. "
"What nonsense are you saying? I heard there are many young ladies going, even children of acquaintances. You know the kid’s temper. If things go south, he might give people the cold shoulder... "
The old lady coughed, "If anything happens, you... let know in ti."
It could be considered a form of "matchmaking", you never know, perhaps he might fall for soone at first sight.
"Alright, I’ll go take a look." When Jiang Jinsang handed the young Xiaowai to the old lady, the little guy seed unhappy and kept twisting about.
As he drove away, the little fellow tilted his head and started crying bitterly.
"I’ve never seen a kid so attached to their dad. Great-grandma will hold you, don’t cry—" The old lady felt heartache seeing him cry, gasping between sobs.
