"Where did you get this outfit custom-made?" Jiang Chengsi is not particular about his clothes, except for his car, and he never bothers to have custom-made clothes, thinking it’s too much trouble.
"Just from soone I know."
Jiang Chengsi nodded, thinking to himself that she often goes to Tang Wan for custom-made items and probably knows many people in the custom business. So, at this mont, he never thought that this outfit might have been hand-sewn by her.
"The club officially opens tomorrow, if you have ti, co and have so fun." Jiang Chengsi took off his coat and hung it on the side.
"I probably won’t have ti tomorrow."
Tomorrow, many people would surely be eyeing Jiang Chengsi’s club, and there would likely be a lot of reporters.
"Then if you ever want to learn to drive, just call anyti." Jiang Chengsi didn’t wish for her to go tomorrow; he would certainly be busy and wouldn’t be able to take care of her.
"Anyti?"
"Yeah, I promised to teach you to drive before, but never got the chance."
...
The two engaged in a casual conversation, and later she directly took her phone and sat on the bed. During the brief seconds it took to move her phone, the cara roughly swept across her room.
A girl’s room, undoubtedly arranged exceptionally delicately and carefully.
Originally, they were chatting nicely when suddenly there was a knock on the door outside, startling her into quickly saying to hang up the video. Before Jiang Chengsi could say goodbye, the video had already been disconnected.
Why the rush?
Was it her parents knocking?
So frightened?
They weren’t doing anything sneaky or shady, was it really necessary? Did he have anything to hide?
After hanging up the video, he picked up the express package placed on the side. On it was only a surna and phone number. After scanning the code to check the sending address, it was sent directly from a certain courier point, making it impossible to find her ho address.
He opened his computer and searched the neighborhood where she lives.
Initially, he found so rental or sale property information, and among them, he could see so interior photos taken by the owners.
This neighborhood has no detached villas, only so standard multi-bedroom units.
Her room is very large, seemingly unlike living in a high-rise apartnt building...
Jiang Chengsi rubbed his chin, recalling how she never let him drop her off inside the neighborhood, growing increasingly puzzled; this girl has too many mysteries about her.
That night, Jiang Chengsi still went to bed quite late, vaguely having a strange dream:
He dread that he escorted her to her doorstep, and when she invited him inside, he hesitated. Eventually, when he entered, he found the house empty, and she was nowhere to be seen; a vast room with only floor tiles, nothing else...
And at this mont, a fierce beast appeared out of nowhere!
He started running, but the house was sealed off, and the door he ca through was already gone.
[You want to co, right? Since you’re here, don’t leave—]
The beast growled, baring sharp teeth and claws, attempting to grab him.
Jiang Chengsi could only keep running around the room.
Eventually, he got knocked down—
When he saw the beast opening its bloody maw to bite him, he was suddenly startled awake by a burst of crying.
Morning twilight, it was Jiang Xiaowai crying.
Lying in bed, his neck felt a chill, and he realized that the teddy bear lying in bed had been kicked off onto the floor.

Jiang Chengsi took a quick shower, and when he went downstairs, the elderly lady was listening to the morning news on the radio. She glanced at him with just the corner of her eye, then couldn’t help but take another look when she saw his outfit.
"Chengsi, this outfit looks very nice on you today."
The elderly lady hasn’t been fond of him recently, rarely giving complints. As everyone heard this, their eyes turned to Jiang Chengsi.
Low-key elegance with a hint of carefree boldness.
This kind of custom-tailored outfit naturally aims to highlight his personal characteristics to the utmost.
"Fourth Brother, where did you buy this outfit?" Tang Wan scrutinized him for a while, also thinking it looked really good.
"A friend gave it to ."
The elderly lady went over and deliberately touched the fabric of the sleeves, "Your friend has a good eye, but this outfit must have cost quite a bit."
"You should consider who’s wearing it."
The elderly lady chuckled, "When did you start knowing such reliable friends?"
She doesn’t like Jiang Chengsi’s car hobby; perhaps due to an elderly mindset being sowhat conservative, also not being pleased with him running the bar all the ti, always thinking that most of his friends are just "car-racing and drinking buddies."
"Grandma, speaking like that, I have plenty of reliable friends around , you just don’t know them."
"Bring them ho, let see."
Jiang Chengsi imdiately deflated, and the elderly lady coldly snorted, urging him to eat quickly.
Jiang Zhenhuan was going to the company today and couldn’t attend his club opening, not sending any flower baskets, directly handing him a card instead.
"I know opening the club isn’t easy for you, this is a token of my appreciation; the password is your birthday."
It must be said, Jiang Zhenhuan’s opening gift was the most practical. After checking the card’s balance, all he could say was...
Very generous!
...
The club officially opened at ten, and when Jiang Chengsi arrived at eight, there were already many flower baskets sent by others outside. Ruan ngxi had arrived earlier and was performing the final checks.
Just unexpectedly, Qi Zeyan, who wasn’t working, showed up as well.
"After all, I’m a shareholder, I should co to show support."
Jiang Chengsi scoffed lightly, "You rember you’re a shareholder?"
"Actually, this is also a joint venture with my wife."
Jiang Chengsi raised an eyebrow; what kind of nonsense is this guy talking? This project is his hard work; how did it beco a joint venture between him and Ruan ngxi? Does this guy have any sha?
He was about to roll up his sleeves to reason with him properly when Ruan ngxi briskly walked over, "Fourth Master, soone sent over eight pairs of flower baskets."
"Let them send; just have them placed at the entrance." With so many people sending flowers, Jiang Chengsi couldn’t possibly manage them all.
"The sender’s na is the Si Family."
The flower basket sender would be registered at the club, so when the staff saw the na, they inford Ruan ngxi.
"The Si Family?" Qi Zeyan chuckled, putting an arm around his shoulder, "Jiang Xiaosi, what’s going on? I’ve been away from Beijing, what have you been up to, when did you beco so close with the Si Family!"
"Sent you flower baskets? Let tell you, the last ti the Si Family sent flower baskets was when You Hongxian opened his company."
"That’s over twenty years ago; look around Beijing, who else gets this treatnt? You’ve got quite the connections, huh?" Qi Zeyan, being familiar with the business circles, naturally knew how proud the Si Family was.
Especially the current Mr. Si, who has the ability not to maintain unnecessary connections.
"I’ll go have a look." Jiang Chengsi walked out, with Qi Zeyan and Ruan ngxi following closely behind.
Jiang Chengsi was dumbfounded again...
Actually, the flower baskets from everyone were similar, about the sa style, but the one from the Si Family was particularly different.
Just the height of the basket alone was taller than the others by quite a bit.
Eight pairs, 16 baskets, standing out with a proud and imposing air.
Most importantly, the sender is not a company or anything but rather the nas of the Si Family couple personally.
"Jiang Chengsi, you need to explain this well, what’s your relationship with the Si Family? Sending flower baskets under a personal title? Back when the You Family opened their company, it was sent under the Si Family na."
Qi Zeyan eyed the baskets, "You sure can, the Si Family actually gave you this sort of honor."
Sending under the Si Family na is naturally grand and respectable, but sending flowers in a personal capacity has a very different significance.
Away from the Si Family na, it’s all about personal connections, aning good personal relations...
Jiang Chengsi felt his relationship with their family was just average; what’s the reason for sending him flower baskets?
Still muddled, his shoulder was heavily patted by Qi Zeyan:
"Jiang Xiaosi—"
"When prosperous, don’t forget each other!"
