Chapter 962: Chapter 574: Mooching Food, Sleep, and Clothes; Never Fights an Unwinnable Battle (Second Update)
Jiang Chengsi couldn’t escape his room, and the people “chasing” him suddenly rushed in from all directions, startling him awake. Due to his cold, he broke out in a feverish sweat.
His nose cleared up, and he felt a lot better overall.
He picked up his phone; the other party had replied:
[It’s okay, I know you didn’t an it, no need to treat to a al.]
[How are you feeling? Are you okay?]
There was another ssage on his phone from Jiang Shiyi, probably knowing he was sick, but the ssage read:
[Did you not take the dicine I prepared for you last night? Still bothering Xiaowu and his wife. I’m not ho lately; are you not eating and sleeping on ti, flipping day and night again…]
Jiang Shiyi sent a long string of ssages, chastising him a lot. Comparing it to the previous ssage asking about his health, he felt his own brother was simply a demon.
He didn’t even care if he was feeling better.
A stranger knew to care about his health, but his brother only knew how to scold him. The difference was too stark.
Ignoring Jiang Shiyi’s ssage, Jiang Chengsi directly replied to “Miss Xiao.”
[I’m much better, but I feel terrible for causing you trouble, so I prepared a small gift for you. Even if we don’t have a al, please accept my token.]
Jiang Chengsi had never been a “rogue” in his life, yet he encountered a well-mannered young lady, making him feel even guiltier, feeling like he had to offer sothing to alleviate his conscience.
Just as Jiang Jinsang said, if it were an average person, they wouldn’t let him drag on for so long, probably would have kicked him away ages ago.
The other party declined many tis but finally couldn’t resist Jiang Chengsi and agreed to et over the weekend, with the ti and place still to be decided.
Jiang Chengsi solved a worry, sweated a lot, and borrowed Jiang Jinsang’s ho bathroom for a shower. Without a change of clothes, Tang Wan handed him a set of Jiang Jinsang’s clothes.
Though the Jiang brothers looked different, their heights and builds were similar, so the clothes would surely fit.
“These aren’t Xiaowu’s old clothes, are they?” Jiang Chengsi raised an eyebrow.
“No, I bought them for Brother Wu recently. They haven’t been worn yet and should fit.” Tang Wan laughed.
“Then I won’t be polite.” Jiang Chengsi didn’t intend to be polite, taking the clothes and heading into the clothes.
Jiang Jinsang, sitting to the side, was choked with anger, never having seen soone so shaless.
Coming to their house, freeloading on food, drinks, and sleep, then taking a shower was one thing, but he even took a new set of clothes?
“It’s just a set of clothes. Is it worth all this fuss?” Tang Wan smiled at Jiang Jinsang.
“But you bought it.”
“Next ti I go shopping, I’ll buy you a few more sets.” With that, Tang Wan sat on the sofa and started texting Shen Shuci, wanting to ask about the wedding plans.
**
Shen Shuci was still at the Huo Family, supposedly discussing the wedding, but the Huo Family seed to be leading the way, having prepared everything.
They had nurous sches for a mixed Western and Chinese wedding, even selecting the wedding venues.
They even chose which corporation to hire for the wedding planning, printing the invitations, and selecting the wedding dresses, providing multiple options.
However, while choosing sches, they still tried to respect the Shen Family’s wishes as much as possible.
Uncle Shen originally had many concerns. These kids silently got everything done, so there was so discomfort in his heart, always wanting to give Huo Qinqi a hard ti during the discussions.
He hadn’t expected the Huo Family to prepare nurous sches, dissolving all of his challenges one by one.
This left him a bit stifled.
The Huo Family never fought a battle they weren’t prepared for; anything the Shen Family could think of, the Huo Family almost considered comprehensively.
“Shuci, if you have any special requests, just let know.” Every ti Liang Yun looked at Shen Shuci, she smiled kindly, “If you prefer any particular format, feel free to tell .”
Previously, she neglected Huo Qinqi, seemingly wanting to make up for all her inadequacies towards her son on the soon-to-be-born child.
“There are too many plans; I can’t keep track.” A thick stack of docunts, with seven or eight bridal shop choices in different styles, was impossible to see in one go.
“Knowing you can’t see everything, the docunts are too many to take with you conveniently, so we also prepared a PPT.”
“…”
Tang Yunxian, sitting by, was already stunned by the Huo Family’s actions.
They even prepared a PPT? What more could he say?
When Huo Zheng handed Shen Shuci the USB drive, she was dumbfounded. The preparations were excessively thorough.
Though many details were yet to be finalized, the wedding date was chosen, leaving other matters to be slowly determined.
Once the date was fixed, the Huo Family got busy renovating the house. Huo Qinqi even called Jiang Jinsang, his house being newly renovated with a pregnant woman, trusting him to offer valuable opinions on material choices.
Liang Yun felt the house was too coldly styled, so in this renovation, they added many warm-colored objects.
Thinking about the impending arrival of little life, she even considered building swings, slides, and such for the child.
She started eyeing those stakes in their yard, planning to dig them out and create a kids’ park, which left Huo Qinqi speechless.
The child was still only a few days old; it would be a long ti before they could walk, yet his mother was already thinking about replacing his things?
“Mom, don’t you think it’s too soon for these preparations?”
“You’ll understand when you have a child. Ti flies, and we should prepare early. Why keep those stakes? Are you expecting the kid to play with them?”
“…”
“Mom, I’m thinking of applying to transfer back to Beijing,” Huo Qinqi continued.
“Worried about Shuci?”
“Yes.”
“It’d be best if you could transfer back; if not, don’t worry, your dad and I are in Beijing and will help take care of your wife. You don’t need to worry about the wedding either; just take a leave to return for wedding photos and attendance.”
“…”
Huo Qinqi should have foreseen that marrying his wife and having a child ant losing his place in the family.
Even if he didn’t return ho, his parents likely wouldn’t mind.
**
The Shen Family only left the Huo Family after dinner; once ho, Shen Shuci called Tang Wan to discuss the wedding.
“I want to see that PPT,” Tang Wan hadn’t thought that a wedding discussion would lead to a PPT.
“I’ll send it to you later. If you’re free, help look over it and give so suggestions,” Shen Shuci didn’t have many requirents for the wedding.
She had been there throughout Tang Wan and Jiang Jinsang’s wedding preparations, though unable to assist much…
She felt it was exhausting, worrying a lot.
But the Huo Family and her parents were enthusiastic and devoted to the wedding preparations, so she couldn’t dampen their spirits.
“I’ll find ti to look it over. Did you spend the entire afternoon but accomplish nothing?”
“The date is set.”
“When? It won’t conflict with my delivery date, right?” Tang Wan’s belly was significantly swollen now, “Please don’t schedule it after my due date; I’d be in confinent and unable to attend your wedding.”
“No, it’s more than half a month before your due date.”
Both families considered this matter. If the dates conflicted, everyone would be in chaos despite it being a happy event, leaving little mind for a wedding.
“That’s good. Missing your wedding would be too regretful.”
When Tang Wan received the PPT, she examined it attentively; the Huo Family had done a ticulous job, even accompanying it with music.
Jiang Jinsang ca over to glance at it, then chat about Huo Qinqi and Shen Shuci’s wedding date.
“Then, after the wedding, we can pack up and head to the hospital,” he and Tang Wan had already agreed to stay in the hospital so ti before her due date, with professionals attending to them, eliminating the sudden frenzy at ho due to labor.
“Okay.”
Tang Wan touched her belly and nodded.
The ti fra was already calculated; everything seed to proceed orderly according to schedule, with the Huo Family seemingly busiest, dealing with the wedding after a long lull in festivities.
This stirred quite a commotion, spreading news of the wedding across the Beijing circle before invitations were sent. Two or three months in advance, people were discreetly connecting for a chance to show up at the wedding, and with midsumr setting in, Beijing was lively.
Jiang Jinsang even reserved a spot at the hospital, planning to move in ten days before the due date after the wedding.
However, plans often can’t keep up with changes; who knows what tomorrow holds for them.
