Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

At the Tang family’s old residence.

With an extra person at home, and even the breakfast was a little indulgent than usual. Tang Wan lowered her head and ate the small wontons. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Jiang Jinshang eating the wontons with a spoon, but he avoided the cilantro on the clear soup, not touching it at all.

“Fifth Master, I’ll call someone later to fix your bathroom.”

“What happened to the bathroom?” Old Master Tang was in a good mood today, and he ate more than usual for breakfast.

“The heating system in my bathroom is broken.” Jiang Jinshang said calmly, “I’ll get someone to fix it myself.”

“It’s okay. I still have the number of the maintenance guy from when I installed it. It’s almost winter, so I’ll ask him to check the other heating equipment in the house.”

Tang Wan made sense. There was no reason for their guests to fix things.

“I’d like to ask, which hospital is Ms. Tang Mo staying in?” Jiang Jinshang lowered his head and ate his food. His expression was calm. “I heard she’s in the hospital. After all, the incident started because of me. I should go and have a look.”

Tang Wan pursed her lips. She really couldn’t see through the person in front of her. He beat her up so badly last night and didn’t even apologize. But today, he said he was going to visit her? She thought it was rather strange.

Old Master Tang was speechless. “It’s fine if you don’t go. You’re not feeling well. Get some sunlight in and rest.”

“The doctor said it’s better to take a walk every now and then.”

“Wan Wan is going to the hospital later, you two can go together.”

“Ms. Tang is going too? It’d be nice.”

She didn’t say she was going with Jiang Jinshang. This was baffling.

“I say, can you two change the way you address each other? One calls Fifth Master every day, while the other talks to one Ms. Tang. You’re living together now. Is there a need to be so polite?” Old Master Tang thought they sounded really awkward.

“I see that young people nowadays aren’t even married yet, and they’re already calling each other by intimate names. You’re already living together, so why are you still being so polite? !”

Tang Wan knew that her grandfather was a little extra recently, but she didn’t know that he could be so wild.

“We merely live in the same courtyard.” What would happen if outsiders heard this?

“You don’t live together?” Old Master Tang retorted.

“…”

In private, Tang Wan pulled her grandfather aside and muttered “Grandfather, I’ve already made things clear to him. Please don’t say strange things. Even if he doesn’t say anything, it’s to keep you from being embarrassed. It doesn’t mean that he doesn’t have any thoughts in his heart.”

This was her biological grandfather. They understood each other and knew that he didn’t have any ill intentions.

However, Jiang Jinshang was different. He was an intelligent man. She could tell that if you were to set him up with someone he didn’t like, he was being extremely polite if he didn’t have any outburst.

“Tell me, apart from his poor health, What’s wrong with him?”

Tang Wan didn’t say anything. Who wouldn’t want to find someone they liked to spend their lives with? According to the rumors, Jiang Jinshang wouldn’t live for more than three years, at most.

Once they got married, her husband would immediately die. Who would want to spend the rest of their lives as a widow?

***

Tang Wan and Jiang Jinshang went to the hospital together. They passed by the fruit store and bought two fruit baskets. When they reached the ward, they could hear laughter from afar.

Tang Wan didn’t want to come, but she had to show some respect.

When she knocked on the door and came in, Zhang Liyun wasn’t there. Tang Mo was lying on the bed. It was too dark last night and she couldn’t see clearly. At this time, it was daytime. Tang Wan couldn’t help but take a deep breath when she saw her face.

Her nose was bruised and her eyes were swollen. Half of her face was blue black and swollen. Her facial features had been squeezed until they were deformed. She was wearing a hospital gown, so she couldn’t see the injuries on her body clearly. However, she was definitely badly injured.

This bodyguard was really ruthless. Even if he didn’t recognize Tang Mo, he should know that she was a woman.

Later, when Tang Wan entered the Jiang family, she didn’t mean to bring up this matter. Jiang Jinshang only said lightly.

“As a thief, you have to be prepared to be beaten. If it was in the ancient times, you deserve to be beaten to death. Now, since you have to be responsible for killing people. I’ve already asked them to stop using their strength.”

“Sister, Fifth Master.” Tang Mo saw the two of them enter the room and called out in a low voice, tugging at her wound. It was so painful that she sucked in a breath of cold air.

“Aunt Liyun isn’t here?” Tang Wan glanced at the ward. There were five or six people sitting there. They looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old. Both men and women were dressed fashionably.

“Hello, sister.” The few of them stood up to greet her. Tang Wan was not much older than them, but she was already working. She was mature and had a temperament. The feeling was similar to seeing her own elders.

“My mother is out. These are my classmates,” Tang Mo introduced them briefly.

“Hello,” Tang Wan greeted them politely and swept her gaze across the group of people. They were not the same group of people who had gone to the house previously.

With visitors coming, they couldn’t chat anymore. After a few simple words, they were ready to leave.

“Momo, take good care of yourself. We’ll come to see you another day.”

“Thank you. I’ll treat you to a meal when I’m discharged from the hospital.”

Tang Wan just listened quietly. She was usually a big spender. Recently, Zhang Liyun had stopped her allowance. These children ate and drank together and spent like there was no tomorrow. She was afraid that she wouldn’t have the money to treat them to a meal.

However, she never meddled in Tang Mo’s affairs. It was just that she didn’t expect that she would be implicated when something happened to her later on.

Tang Mo was extremely afraid of Jiang Jinshang. Previously, she had some flirtatious thoughts towards him, but looking at his expression now, it was as if he was the devil himself.

Jiang Jinshang felt that this kind of gaze made him feel more comfortable.

Knowing that she was afraid, she would keep to herself.

***

The two of them did not stay in the hospital for long. When they returned home, the maintenance guy was done fixing the shower and was about to leave.

Tang Wan had just returned. After thanking him, she asked, “Sir, the shower over there hasn’t been used much either. It was still fine before. How did it break down?”

“It could be that it hasn’t been used for too long. It’s easy for people to have problems if they haven’t been active for too long. Moreover, it’s a machine. After I checked, there’s nothing serious. It’s just that there are some signs of man-made damage. If you feel that there’s something wrong, call me. Don’t touch it yourself.”

“Man-made damage?” Tang Wan frowned. The shower sat at the top of the bathroom. Who would touch that.

Jiang Jinshang, on the other hand, said casually, “I must have felt that it wasn’t useful yesterday. Those people around me were fooling around, and instead, they broke it.”

How shameless was the Fifth Master, eh? Blaming us for covering up your ass?

If it weren’t for the fact that he would be found lying, and they broke the shower. Now, the bodyguards were blamed instead.

Unfortunately, Jiang Jinshang was the master.

However, as long as it was fixed, Tang Wan naturally wouldn’t think too much about it. She also wouldn’t pay attention to the collective resentment of the bodyguards. Instead, she returned to her room to change her clothes and shoes and prepared to go to the study to work.

When she entered the study, she didn’t expect Jiang Jinshang to be there as well. “Fifth Master.”

Although she had previously told him to treat her as his own home and be more casual, she still felt a little uncomfortable when a stranger barged into her study.

He sat on a chair by the window. A thin blanket was draped over his knees. Under the sunlight, the thick smoke was like gold. He was originally cold and white, but at this moment, he was covered with a layer of warmth.

A peach blossom in March. No matter how beautiful it was, it couldn’t be more beautiful than this.

“Work?” His voice was as gentle as usual.

“Yes.”

“I won’t disturb you while I’m here?”

“It doesn’t matter. I’m just replying to some work emails. I’m not busy at the moment.”

Tang Wan had opened a studio with a partner to make some jade-like jewelry. She was only in charge of drawing designs and doing the work. The external marketing was all done by her work partners.

They worked on relatively high-end private customization. At present, they were all engaged in the production of jewelry for palace movies and TV series, or making some jade noodles for some Peking opera masters. When they were busy, they wouldn’t even be able to eat a mouthful of rice, when they were free, they might be free for a month or two.

“Fifth Master, do you want to drink some tea? I have some relatively new black tea here.” Nourishing for the body.

Jiang Jinshang narrowed his eyes.

The title of Fifth Master really sounded polite.

It was time to change the title.

Fifth Brother? Jinshang..

Her voice was warm and soft, so soft that it could sink into one’s bones. If she said his own name, it would probably sound better.

Tang Wan was steeping the tea and had no idea that someone was staring at her with a burning gaze..
