At this mont, breathing was still heavy and heart beating fast, yet he was still relentless, asking for another nickna.
anwhile, from afar, a conversation could suddenly be heard...
"This is the sour plum juice ordered by the guest in room 203, along with this plate of shrimp paste..."
"Soone’s coming." Si Qingxiao was a bit anxious, but she couldn’t break free from their current posture.
Having heard her call him "Fourth Brother", Jiang Chengsi was already satisfied and hadn’t expected any other nickna; in fact, he found "Fourth Brother" quite endearing and was originally ready to let go.
Unexpectedly, Si Qingxiao suddenly pulled at the front of his shirt, standing on tiptoe to lean in closer...
Due to her forceful movent, her lips brushed past his ear, causing his heart to tremble.
Then he heard her softly call out, gently and tenderly:
"Ah... Asi."
Her lips were warm.
The breath she exhaled seed to carry a scent of white sandalwood, tantalizing and intoxicating.
Jiang Chengsi’s body felt half-dazed, his throat slightly moving, feeling as if it were on fire...
He always thought that certain nicknas sounded pretentious and awkward, yet when spoken from her mouth, they seed to spell his doom.
"Is this nickna okay?" Si Qingxiao’s face turned red.
Jiang Chengsi cleared the heat from his throat, slightly leaned back, and pulled away, looking down at her, "From now on, just call Fourth Brother."
"Asi... doesn’t sound nice, does it?" Si Qingxiao bowed her head, her ears turning red.
As the voices drew closer, Jiang Chengsi said nothing, just led her back to the private room.
Si Qingxiao kept her head down and didn’t notice soone’s ears turning red!
Jiang Chengsi, for the first ti, felt...
A bit shy!
He’d always had a thick skin; if he knew what it ant to be shy, he wouldn’t have gotten into so much trouble in the past, yet now just her calling him out made him feel embarrassed.
Jiang Chengsi, since when did you beco such a thin-skinned person?
At this mont, he finally understood what it ant to play with fire.
Si Qingxiao bit her lip tightly, wondering why she had used such a pretentious nickna; he obviously didn’t like it, feeling inexplicably out of sorts in front of him.
...
When they returned to the private room, Jiang Shiyi was eating, and upon seeing them return hand in hand, the girl’s shyness was understandable, but why was his thick-skinned brother’s ears also red?
What exactly did they do out there?
These two, why were they suddenly feeling awkward?
"Don’t just stand there, eat sothing." Jiang Shiyi told them.
The little girl being shy was one thing, but why did Jiang Chengsi suddenly seem like a timid girl?
"I’ll head back to Hexi after we finish eating." Jiang Shiyi said, "I won’t bother you two."
"Brother, what kind of talk is that? You’re not bothering us." Jiang Chengsi’s words didn’t match his feelings.
"Then shall we spend the afternoon together?"
"You’d better leave."
"..."

After Jiang Shiyi settled the bill, he drove away while Jiang Chengsi took Si Qingxiao to play indoor racing before sending her ho in the evening.
When Si Yushan returned ho and saw his daughter was already back, he was quite surprised.
He originally thought that she hadn’t even had breakfast yet and went out to et that kid.
Going out on a date, he assud she’d be back around nine or ten at night.
"When did she get ho?" Si Yushan asked his wife.
"She was back before five, it looks like the boy she’s dating is quite decent, knowing to send her ho early." You Yunzhi laughed, "Also, she brought back a bunch of gifts."
As parents, especially those with daughters, they generally don’t like their girls staying out late, Jiang Chengsi’s actions earned a lot of goodwill.
After You Yunzhi spoke, she added:
"They aren’t expensive things, but quite practical, indeed thoughtful."
Si Yushan nodded, yet in his heart, he felt that anyone who wanted to date his daughter was a brat; no matter what they did, it couldn’t change their essence.
Thinking that sending so gifts and showing small kindnesses would change his mind?
He was curious to see what a remarkable person could make his daughter fall for.
Jiang Chengsi originally planned to have dinner with Si Qingxiao before sending her ho, but perhaps due to getting up early and the day’s packed schedule, bumping into his brother, with the racing being exhausting, she was already a bit tired.
Dating wasn’t just for a day, there was plenty of ti, so Jiang Chengsi decided to let her go back and rest earlier.
After Si Qingxiao returned to her room, she texted him to say she was ho.
Jiang Chengsi quickly called her, and Si Qingxiao purposely locked the door before answering: "Hello—"
"I’m going out to et friends tonight, people you’ve t, like Qi Zeyan. He and Xiaoruan just got back from Pingjiang, and they’ve planned to get engaged, treating for a midnight snack."
"I understand."
"I might be ho late."
"Alright."
"Just wanted to let you know."
It was obvious Jiang Chengsi was reporting his plans, voluntarily and consciously.
It wasn’t that he naturally understood this, but learned from those around him; Jiang Yanting and Jiang Jinsang would always call to report any changes to their wives.
Jiang Chengsi thought, since he also had a girlfriend, he should do the sa.
"Impromptu gathering, would you like to co? I’ll introduce them to you." Jiang Chengsi is never one to hide things, and dating wasn’t a sneaky affair.
Although it wasn’t the perfect timing to tell his family, introducing her to friends was fine.
"It’s too late, I won’t go." eting his friends definitely ant dressing up nicely, which would take ti.
"Then next ti, we’ll have a al with them."
"Okay."
...
Qi Zeyan’s family returned to Beijing with Ruan ngxi on the afternoon flight, having dinner at the Qi Family’s place, before confirming their engagent, Qi Zeyan happily planned a gathering with friends.
The venue was still at Jiang Chengsi’s club.
As hosts, naturally, they arrived earlier but not earlier than the owner Jiang Chengsi.
Entering the private room, just as they pushed open the door, they were dumbfounded.
Jiang Chengsi was alone, holding a microphone, singing "Today You’ll Marry ."
"You two are here, sit quickly, want to sing?" Jiang Chengsi handed them the microphone.
And the subsequent playlist was not only about love but sweet songs and couple duets... entirely not his style.
"Qi Shao." The waiter ca in, "What kind of drinks would you like to order?"
Although Jiang Chengsi was already there, he hadn’t ordered anything.
"So fruit juices, drinks, and beer." Qi Zeyan looked at Jiang Chengsi, "What kind of alcohol do you want?"
"Drinking, I need to report it."
Under Qi Zeyan and Ruan ngxi’s amazed expressions, soone fished out a phone, face glowing with happiness...
They barely left Beijing for a few days, what happened!
Had his brain been replaced?
With Jiang Jinsang, Tang Wan, and others arriving one after another, the private room suddenly beca lively.

anwhile, at the You Family
You Hongxian planned to have soone keep an eye on Si Qingxiao, but was inford that she had just gone ho, not knowing when she left or returned, with people reporting:
[Miss Si hasn’t left today.]
"I had you follow her, you only saw her return ho, but didn’t know when she left, how is that?"
The follower, looking aggrieved, said, "We were there near the Si Family from seven, but indeed didn’t see Miss Si leave."
"So you are telling she left before sunrise? Dating is not morning exercise?" In the short days of winter, at six, the sky is still shrouded in mist, "You didn’t follow her, yet gave so many excuses."
The follower felt utterly hopeless:
Who would know soone would go out for a date before dawn, rely to date...
Getting up before the rooster.
