She had woken up early to watch the flag-raising and wandered around all day, taking care of her grandfather’s affairs. She slept deeply.
The next morning, when she was leaving the house, Jiang Jinsang ca out of a room at the end of the hallway, clearly having just finished exercising, drenched in sweat.
“Going downstairs?”
“Mhm.”
“I need a shower. If you’re not in a hurry, wait for .”
Tang Wan had nothing planned for the morning, so she nodded in agreent.
They were supposed to go downstairs one after the other. Approaching the second floor, they could faintly hear laughter from the first floor, Tang’s loud, penetrating laughter.
Jiang Jinsang walked in front, then suddenly turned back and reached out his hand toward her.
Tang Wan paused, recalling their current relationship, and also that they had agreed last night to act close in front of the elders. Hesitating, she reached out, her fingers barely touching his palm.
Jiang Jinsang’s fingers closed, tightening, holding firmly.
It felt as if she were entrusting her whole self to him.
Not only her hand felt grasped tightly, but also…
Her heart.
Perhaps it was from the shower, but his palm was inexplicably hot.
Holding hands, they made their way downstairs. As they reached the second floor, they happened to run into Jiang Yanting and his son, Jiangjiang, ready to go downstairs; Jiangjiang was wearing his backpack, presumably off to a tutoring class. Seeing them holding hands, he frowned slightly.
“Brother, good morning,” Jiang Jinsang greeted first.
Tang Wan struggled internally. With their relationship changed, she couldn’t still call Jiang Yanting “Second Master,” could she? But changing the title suddenly didn’t feel right either; however, she still ended up calling him “Second Master.”
“You and Xiaowu are in that kind of relationship, and you still call Second Master?” Jiang Yanting chuckled.
Tang Wan found it odd, but Jiang Jinsang quickly spoke up for her.
“Changing the title requires a red envelope. You think you can just take advantage without tipping?”
Jiang Yanting laughed, “You’re protective already, and you just started trying marriage?”
“Second Uncle, Second Aunt, good morning!” Jiangjiang greeted them.
Tang Wan still found the title awkward but managed a smile in response. While they were going downstairs, Jiangjiang lifted his hand, grabbing his dad’s hand.
Jiangjiang was quite independent, and Jiang Yanting, being a quite reserved person, rarely held hands with him unless they were going out or crossing the street.
“What’s wrong?” Jiang Yanting thought there was sothing matter.
“I just thought seeing Second Uncle and Second Aunt holding hands might make you feel itchy too,” Jiangjiang said affectionately.
…
As they reached the downstairs, everyone saw Jiang Jinsang and Tang Wan holding hands and smirked mysteriously.
Only Tang Yunxian’s mouth twitched slightly, it was just acting…
So serious?
“Wanwan, co sit here.” The old lady’s expression seed as if she really regarded her as her granddaughter-in-law, “What are you two planning for today?”
“We thought about taking her out for a bit during the day and planning to et so friends for dinner. However, only Zeyan is currently in Beijing, so we’re planning to invite him,” Jiang Jinsang said.
Jiang Yanting, hearing this, slightly raised his eyebrows.
He knew very well about Qi Zeyan’s intentions, and his brother acting this way was not just stepping on his toes; it was directly stabbing him.
“Sounds good, eting friends.” Fan Mingyu voiced his support.
Only Tang Yunxian raised his eyebrows slightly: eting friends? This play was getting too elaborate.
Tang Wan was unaware beforehand and was surprised, yet she could only go along with his act.
“Brother, if you’re free tonight, bring Jiangjiang along. I only invited Zeyan; otherwise, it would be quite lonely.”
“Are we going out for dinner tonight?” Jiangjiang’s eyes lit up upon hearing this, as most kids love eating out.
“Mm-hmm, what would you like to eat? Your Second Uncle is treating.”
“I want boiled fish, roast chicken, Peking duck…”
Jiangjiang seed very excited, but Jiang Yanting pursed his lips. Inviting him was like telling Qi Zeyan indirectly that he was in the know about him and Tang Wan.
Given that dude’s character, he would definitely settle scores with him.
With Tang Wan there, Qi Zeyan would not find it convenient to trouble his brother, so the drama might well end up directed at him instead.
Jiang Yanting didn’t want to go, but the old lady had already spoken for him, “Yanting, take Jiangjiang with you. After all, as the elder brother, it’s only right you treat.”
Jiang Yanting pursed his lips.
He was being dragged out as a shield, and he had to pay the bill?
Wasn’t this just spending money to ask for trouble?
But given the circumstances, he couldn’t refuse; he nodded, “I understand.”
Only then did the old lady nod, satisfied.
