Zhang Liyun and her daughter were hesitant to appear in public, while Jiang Jiu worried about so shaless people taking advantage of the situation. He didn’t handle Zhang Defu harshly, but soone was acting as if they were on the brink of death, so the three didn’t see a doctor and just took a taxi ho.
Tang Yunxian also inquired about the situation from the dical staff present at the ti.
It was only then that Tang Wan knew the Zhang Family had arrived, seeing her father’s increasingly embarrassed look, she pulled him toward the hospital room.
“Dad, why don’t you go ho and get so sleep? You haven’t slept for over twenty hours since yesterday, and the specialists are here anyway, so I can stay.”
“It’s okay,” Tang Yunxian insisted stubbornly, but his face showed extre fatigue.
“Grandpa Five didn’t have a good rest either. It would be best for you to take him ho to rest. If his health fails, we really can’t explain it to the Jiang Family…”
Unable to refuse her, Tang Yunxian agreed to go ho to rest and took Jiang Jinsang with him while Qi Zeyan, who wasn’t traveling the sa way, stayed a bit longer in the hospital.
“Wanwan.” Before leaving, Tang Yunxian couldn’t help but remind her, “Be more cautious.”
Qi Zeyan’s inexplicably pleasing behavior must have had so motive.
After they left, the room imdiately quieted down. Qi Zeyan deliberately stayed to have so ti alone with Tang Wan and to possibly share so feelings, but when they actually faced each other, he felt sowhat cowardly.
He was usually quite articulate, but now he didn’t know what to say. Left with no choice, he resorted to using Baidu:
“How to find topics to talk to a girl about?”
There were many suggestions like zodiac signs, gossip, idol dramas, and so on…
Clearing his throat, Qi Zeyan asked, “Miss Tang, what’s your zodiac sign?”
“Mr. Qi, you’re interested in zodiac signs?” Tang Wan, peeling an apple, glanced at him.
Still in a sharp suit, with a parted slicked-back hairstyle, resembling a successful elite, a man discussing zodiac signs with her?
“No, just asking randomly. So, have you been following that recent infidelity scandal in the entertainnt industry?”
“Um.”
Seeing her apparent lack of interest in the topic, Qi Zeyan clenched his teeth, “What variety shows and TV dramas have you been watching lately?”
Only then did Tang Wan looked up seriously at him, “Mr. Qi…”
“What?” He instinctively straightened up.
“Are you intentionally trying to find topics to talk to ?”
“How could that be? Just making casual conversation.” Qi Zeyan murmured a curse under his breath, all the Baidu suggestions were useless, truly awkward.
“Mr. Qi, would you like so apple?” Tang Wan handed him a freshly peeled apple.
“Thank you.”
“I heard that the Qing Palace Drama cast top-ranking actors, is that true? Since it hasn’t been officially announced, can you disclose anything?”
“There’s nothing inconvenient to disclose…” When it ca to work, Qi Zeyan had much more to say, and the atmosphere naturally felt less awkward.
Leaving the hospital, Qi Zeyan even sent Jiang Jinsang a ssage:
“Indeed, the person I fancied is so gentle and caring. Didn’t expect we have so much in common, could it be a match made in heaven?”
Jiang Jinsang had left soone at the hospital, Jiang Cuo was more active, just right to keep Tang Wan company, and he could relay matters on ti. After Qi Zeyan left, he couldn’t help asking, “Miss Tang, it seems like you were accommodating Mr. Qi in your conversation.”
Tang Wan raised an eyebrow: “He’s a major client.”
The implication: All for the sake of money.
So, Jiang Jinsang really wanted to respond:
“You two have no fate, it’s all about your money spends.”

Tang Family Villa
The hospital wasn’t far from here, Tang Yunxian had originally planned to have soone drive Jiang Jinsang to the old house.
“Sending back to the old house and then coming back to rest will take quite so ti. I just need a place to rest, and besides, it’s far from the hospital; it wouldn’t be convenient for to visit the patients.”
“We can stay at my place first. I’ll have soone arrange a guest room for you.”
“You arrange it, I’m fine with anything.”
“I heard from Wanwan that you’ve been troubled quite a bit lately; you even specially invited experts to co over. Thank you.”
“Mr. Tang has always taken good care of too; it’s all I should do. You’re being too polite.”
“About what happened this morning, I want to apologize to you first,” Tang Yunxian was naturally talking about the incident involving Zhang Defu.
“It’s not related to you.”
“You were innocently implicated…”
Throughout the journey, the two of them did chat quite a lot, maintaining a harmonious atmosphere.
When they arrived at the doorstep, Tang Wan seed to have tid it perfectly, calling Tang Yunxian just as he was letting Jiang Jinsang enter first, “Hello—Wanwan.”
Tang Wan was rely asking if they had reached ho or sothing alike, “Did you take Fifth Master there?”
“Yes, actually, the children raised by the Jiang Family aren’t bad at all. Whether it’s finance or journalism, they know quite a lot and are insightful and proficient in their speech.”
“He also knows a lot about history. I consulted him on many questions before.”
“That’s quite learned, and his character isn’t bad either; conscientious and steady, never hasty or rash in speech.” Elders generally dislike loud and brash individuals.
…
At this mont, Jiang Jinsang didn’t realize that this father and daughter were discussing him. Thinking they had private matters to discuss, he decided to enter first.
By this ti, Zhang Liyun and her daughter, as well as Zhang Defu, were in the living room, already aware of Tang Yunxian’s return.
Hearing the car, Zhang Liyun kept instructing her brother, “When he cos back later, don’t ntion anything else, just apologize to first, or do you really hope I get divorced?”
Zhang Defu, now aware that the slap wasn’t given by Tang Yunxian, felt sowhat guilty and grumbled without responding.
Unexpectedly, when the door opened, who ca in was Jiang Jinsang.
Zhang Defu exploded instantly, bouncing up from the sofa, and bellowing loudly, “Why the hell are you here!”
Jiang Jinsang raised an eyebrow, his expression unchanged:
It seems the beating wasn’t enough.
“I haven’t settled the last matter with you, and you dare to co here?”
“Zhang Defu!” Zhang Liyun was furious; she had explained Jiang Jinsang’s identity before, but the fool obviously hadn’t listened.
Hearing the shouting from inside the house, Tang Yunxian slightly frowned, hung up the phone quickly, and before reaching the door, he heard Zhang Defu’s words and his face turned even sterner.
Jiang Jinsang, fingers curling, had a dangerous look in his eyes, but retracted it as soon as Tang Yunxian arrived, still appearing harmless.
“Why can’t he co here?” Tang Yunxian entered directly, standing beside Jiang Jinsang.
“Brother-in-law!” Zhang Defu was stunned.
“Uncle Tang.” “Yunxian.” Zhang Liyun and her daughter imdiately stood up.
Tang Yunxian had driven all the way the day before, had not slept all night, and his eyes were bloodshot. Despite always being scholarly, the bloodshot eyes made him look intimidating.
“Jinsang is my invited guest; I haven’t even uttered a word, what right do you have to order him around?”
“This is the Tang Family’s ho; is it your place to be in charge?”
Zhang Defu, also middle-aged, with his younger family mbers present, felt humiliated, yet clung to his pride.
With a shaless smile, he stubbornly said, “Brother-in-law, what you say… Aren’t we all family? Do we need to make such a clear distinction?”
“We’ll not be soon.”
The expressions on the three faces turned grim instantly.
Perhaps due to the sleepless night, his voice was sowhat hoarse, colder and bleaker than the autumn wind outside.
