The east wind blew, and life sparked in the withered wood once again...
The spring rain murmured softly, dense and lingering, mixed with the coolness of the winter days yet to fade, hitting the window and making a tapping sound.
Tang Wan had just finished the hairpin in her hands and looked up at the person by the window. The rain washed over the glass, forming a curtain of water; he sat there, his eyebrows and eyes drooping. Since Jiang Jinsang had undergone surgery, he hadn’t trimd his hair, which was slightly long, wispy, and lightly covering his eyebrows and eyes.
Half of his face was in shadow, vague and unclear, his pale skin naturally exuding a lancholic air.
He held a book titled "A Brief Discussion on Marriage between the Sexes" in his hands...
Everyone was busy with their own affairs, and few had visited the old house recently. Tang Wan suddenly thought, had he always been like this, alone...
Lonely, desolate.
"Jinsang?"
Jiang Jinsang turned his head to look at her, "Are you done?"
"Is the book interesting?"
"It’s just okay." Such things, all big principles, not much readability.
"Huo Brother sends books every now and then, but it’s been a long ti since we’ve seen him in person."
"Work, probably. Sotis he’s gone for a year and a half, and even his parents don’t know where he’s gone, it’s quite normal." Jiang Jinsang chuckled lightly, "I just didn’t expect, with him gone, he still rembers to send books."
"Fourth Brother also went abroad for racing, it feels a bit quiet here." Tang Wan chuckled lightly.
Jiang Chengsi had left a week ago, saying that if he didn’t leave, he feared his life would be in jeopardy in Beijing.
After Taotao’s injury, Jiang Chengsi lived in perpetual fear, especially when seeing Jiang Yanting. He knew his second brother well—a man who held grudges—and he thought...
With the Xie Family matter settled, was it ti for him to settle the score?
Frightened for a whole half month with no consequences, he never expected that, on a dark and windy night, Jiang Yanting ca for him...
Since then, it was said that he sought him out nightly to "share feelings."
What exactly was said, only the two of them knew.
Jiang Chengsi was always a spontaneous and straightforward person. After being tornted by him for three days, he finally snapped, shouting, "Jiang Yanting, what exactly do you want? Have the guts to finish this quickly!"
Jiang Yanting, as always aloof, replied, "I don’t understand what you an."
"You do this every day, are you trying to kill intentionally?"
"You don’t like finding you?"
"..."
"Being your brother, I felt I had always neglected you and wanted to communicate more with you, deepen our feelings, but it seems... I was being presumptuous."
Jiang Chengsi went insane...
With his nature, direct confrontation didn’t scare him at all; but he was most afraid of these subtle tornts, and since he was the one who did wrong, he dared not retaliate. Otherwise, he would have fought back long ago.
Finally, with no other choice, he had to seek help from his own blood brother...
Jiang Shiyi had just started a new job, was extrely busy, and had to manage the hospital affairs; so it was very rare to catch him.
"...Brother, you have to help with this."
"Why co to ? I’m not close with Second Brother." Jiang Shiyi was a detached person, virtually unfamiliar with all the Jiang family mbers.
"That’s why. Because you’re not close, if you plead with Second Brother, he can’t refuse."
Jiang Shiyi paused thoughtfully, "That’s reasonable."
"Brother, so you agree?"
"I refuse!"
His tone was cold, almost like a heartbreaker.
Jiang Chengsi had no other choice, and with a recent racing car competition overseas—which he hadn’t initially wanted to participate in—he still packed his bags overnight and fled...
Just as the plane landed, and he breathed the fresh air abroad, feeling relieved, he received a ssage from Jiang Yanting:
[Chengsi, don’t forget... I’m waiting for you at ho.]
Jiang Chengsi was infuriated:
This is simply devilish.
...
Thinking about the recent events where Jiang Chengsi was driven mad, Tang Wan couldn’t help but laugh out loud, "I wonder when Fourth Brother will co back?"
"He probably doesn’t want to co back in his lifeti." Jiang Jinsang chuckled lightly.
With his brother threatening his life and the old lady pressing for marriage, his days weren’t going well.
Regarding the old lady pressuring for marriage, it was quite a story; the old lady didn’t have much else to do and was rather idle. Among the Jiang brothers, two were without partners, yet she relentlessly targeted Jiang Chengsi.
Frustrated, Jiang Chengsi directly pushed his brother forward: "Grandma, my brother is also single; why don’t you introduce soone to him? He’s even older than ."
The old lady said flatly, "Your brother is more sensible in his actions than you; I trust him."
