Although afterward Jiang Chengsi received a ssage from Si Qingxiao:
[He may be my uncle, but he’s just my uncle.]
The words were quite artful, acknowledging the family relation, yet seemingly distancing herself from him. Since You Hongxian got kicked out, he clearly did sothing, and Si Qingxiao seems unwilling to associate with him.
The You Family is her maternal family, after all, and so things are not suitable to disclose too much to Jiang Chengsi.
So she kept her words brief, thinking Jiang Chengsi would understand.
She just overestimated Jiang Chengsi’s intelligence; this silly fool has already plunged into the river of love, leaving no room for rationality.
He thought, what if You Hongxian, being so shaless, stirs up trouble at the Si Family?
Leading to Qi Zeyan and Ruan ngxi’s engagent day, soone was still frowning.
"Fourth Brother, today Xixi and Zeyan are getting engaged, can you at least look a bit happier?" Tang Wan was amused and exasperated. People are getting married, and here you are sulking, it’s not appropriate.
"Alright." Jiang Chengsi squeezed out a faint smile from the corner of his mouth.
"So ugly, you might as well not smile." Jiang Jinsang said bluntly, "If you don’t want to attend the engagent party, just stay ho."
"I ca to Pingjiang just for the engagent party, why wouldn’t I go, I even prepared gifts for them."
The cult-like CP of Jiang Chengsi and Qi Zeyan has been enduring, even now, so people think he likes n. He’s trying to dispel this idea among people, plus Qi Zeyan is getting engaged, which genuinely makes him happy.
The gift prepared was exceptionally lavish, besides cash gifts, there was a pair of couple wristwatches, not cheap in price.
It could even be said it’s the most expensive gift among all the guests.
But people are getting engaged, and you gift a watch?
It just feels odd.
Especially since it’s a gift given by Jiang Chengsi, it’s even more peculiar.
The main issue is, once he entered the banquet hall, he activated a cold and aloof mode, as if strangers shouldn’t approach, completely out of character.
Soone went over to greet him, and he did smile, but it felt fake, like a "fake smile" boy.
"What’s up with Fourth Lord today? Seems not very happy."
"Qi’s getting engaged, how could he be happy? Look at his face, like he’s here to ss things up."
"Is there really so unknown past between him and Qi?"
"Look at his face, obvious he’s displeased, yet here to congratulate at the engagent? Suddenly reminds one of the deeply affectionate yet reserved protagonist from novels."
...
This even reached Tang Wan.
Jiang Xiaowai was here, quite popular, and Ruan ngxi’s parents even gave him a small gift, seemingly prepared for New Year’s, never handed over.
Tang Wan was pulled into a conversation, talking and talking, soone suddenly asked her mysteriously, "What’s the real relationship between Fourth Lord and Qi?"
"Fourth Brother?" Tang Wan was puzzled, "Just good brothers."
"Socialist brotherhood?"
Tang Wan didn’t understand what that ant, brotherhood is just brotherhood, why add a socialist prefix, she just nodded.
The girl exploded.
"I knew it, I’ve never supported the wrong CP."
"?"
Tang Wan watched her bouncing away, unclear of what was going on.
Later she checked her phone and understood the aning, but when she tried to clarify, the girl didn’t seem to believe her, misunderstanding continued.
Looking at Jiang Chengsi hiding in a corner, indifferent with heavy heart, no wonder everyone misunderstood.
She went to give him a gentle reminder.
"Fourth Brother, it’s their engagent today, can you be a bit happier?"
"I am quite happy." Jiang Chengsi probably didn’t know how much was going on emotionally on his face.
"Weren’t you and Zeyan before..." Tang Wan cleared her throat, "you keeping that face could easily cause misunderstandings. You know what I an?"
Jiang Chengsi was dumbfounded.
The rumors between him and Qi Zeyan were always false, if they really had sothing, given their personalities, it would cause quite the stir, how co it’s still believed?
"Who said this? I’ll have a good talk with them." Jiang Chengsi was furious.
What, doesn’t he have the right to wallow in self-pity?
He hadn’t done a thing, even gifted generously, yet still gets bashed.
Jiang Chengsi probably didn’t understand that so CP fans consider any two of them together as enough of a treat, and Jiang Chengsi always has been rather flamboyant and unrestrained in public.
