Chapter 263: 186 Entering the hall at night, I didn’t expect the operation could be so tricky (2nd update)
Jiang Jinsang returned to his room, while Tang Wan sat by the bed, the skin-to-skin, flesh-against-flesh sensation still seemingly scorching in the palm of her hand.
She tilted her head, looking at the slightly disheveled sheets, as the remnants of warmth started to climb back into her heart.
The events that had just unfolded progressed too quickly, her mind still muddled at this point.
She didn’t even know how the two of them had rolled from the doorway to the bed, and if it wasn’t for her cell phone vibrating, the evening might not have ended so quietly…
She stretched out her hand to straighten so of the wrinkled clothing she wore, bowing her head to reply to a ssage.
The ssage was from Ruan ngxi, simply telling her that she would be returning to Pingjiang at the end of the week and asking her out for a al.
She clenched her phone, her fingertips seemingly retaining the touch of his abdon, not soft like hers, slightly tense, with gentle contours of muscles that undulated slightly with his breathing.
The warmth seed to spread from her fingertips, pouring over her heart…
How to describe such scorching, with just one word.
She patted her face, telling herself she couldn’t afford any more wild thoughts, and hurried to take a shower and go to bed.
Under the covers, she continued texting Ruan ngxi, but as soon as her head buried into the pillow, her mind seed to explode with thoughts—as if she and Jiang Jinsang had rely rolled around on this bed for a bit…
Yet it made her feel as if the entire room was now filled with his scent.
Lord Wansui had witnessed the whole process, and as a tortoise, all it could do was retreat into its shell…
And play dead!
On the other side, after Jiang Jinsang returned to his room, the temperature therein was always higher than in other rooms. When the warm air blew in, he felt his whole body get hotter, his brow furrowing as he stripped and unbuttoned his shirt, walking into the bathroom.
He couldn’t take a cold shower, and the hot water only made things worse…
Teasing her had resulted in him being entirely unable to sleep.
In the early hours of the morning, before the sky was fully light, the blackout curtains prevented any light from entering, the bedroom was even darker, but Jiang Jinsang suddenly opened his eyes, covering his face with his hand, his breathing heavy…
After a few minutes, he rose and headed toward the bathroom.
To think he had dreamt of such things… He must be going mad!

anwhile, Jiang Yanting also had a night where sleep was long in coming.
Shen Zhixian had taken Jiangjiang out for dinner and shopping. After bathing him, she was startled by the doorbell ringing. With a child in the house, she was on her guard, the door already locked from the inside. Peering through the peephole, she was sowhat surprised to see Jiang Yanting.
With Jiangjiang staying over, it made sense for him to co, and she couldn’t turn him away, so she had to open the door.
“How co you…” did you co?
Shen Zhixian didn’t finish her sentence before her eyes landed on the luggage he was carrying.
“My family is worried about Jiangjiang staying overnight by himself, so they sent to check on him,” he said with an emotionless face and a firm, composed tone that didn’t seem fabricated at all, “and I brought him so things.”
The Jiang Family: “…”
“It was thoughtless of .” Shen Zhixian had only been focusing on spending ti alone with her son and forgot about the Jiang Family’s concerns, “Co in, it’s quite cold outside. Jiangjiang is in the bedroom; he just had his bath.”
Beijing had central heating, and indoor temperatures could reach over 20 degrees Celsius. However, since this house was unoccupied, the heating wasn’t adequate. Concerned about Jiangjiang catching cold after his bath, Shen Zhixian had placed an oil heater in the bedroom, of course keeping the door closed.
When Jiang Yanting entered, Jiangjiang was rolling around the bed in his snug thermal underwear, having pushed his shirt up above his belly, showing a round little stomach that made it obvious he had eaten plenty that evening.
“Dad… Dad!” Jiangjiang imdiately knelt on the bed, well-behaved and quiet, “Why did you co?”
“You don’t want to see ?”
Jiang Yanting chuckled lightly: Heartless little rascal, he had raised him since he was small, and now, with a mom, he hadn’t called him all afternoon.
“No way, I really missed you, truly!” Jiangjiang said earnestly.
“Is that so?” Jiang Yanting arched an eyebrow, clearly not convinced.
“I was just telling… Auntie, how much I missed you, and I couldn’t believe you ca. If you hadn’t co, I was planning to video call you.”
In that mont, Jiangjiang showed a remarkable will to live, a natural response honed from being under his father’s influence since a young age.
“If I didn’t see you for an entire night, I’d feel really uncomfortable, I wouldn’t be able to sleep!”
“If you don’t believe , you can ask Auntie.”
Jiangjiang had always been tough and proud, never changing how he addressed Zhixian. While she felt so regret, she knew that his safety and health were more important than anything. As for the form of address, there was no hurry. After all, she had suddenly appeared in his life, and it would take ti for the child to adjust.
“Yeah, we were just talking about you,” Shen Zhixian said with a smile.
