If it had been anyone else from the Jiang family, it wouldn’t have come to this. It had to be Jiang Jinshang. He spoke with a bit of restraint. It seemed like he was holding back, yet it was a blow that would hurt very much.

However, even if Old Master Tang urged him to stay, he did not stay for dinner.

“I met Old Master Tang by chance and came in a hurry. I’ll come again another day for a proper visit.” His voice was gentle, and he spoke very politely to his elders.

“If you insist on, then I won’t keep you. Wan Wan, send him off for me, will you?”

Old Master Tang admired Jiang Jinshang very much. The kid actually knew how to help him cover up his lie. Couldn’t he be a little better?

And live longer?

“Then I’ll have to trouble you, Ms. Tang.” Jiang Jinshang didn’t refuse. It was obvious that he had something to say to her.

Tang Wan nodded and sent him out. The Jiang family’s car was stopped at the door.

“Do you have some time for a chat in private?”

The Jiang family had originally come for their marriage, most likely the reason he wanted to talk to her in private. Tang wan nodded and said, “Shall we go somewhere convenient?”

Having just witnessed Jiang Jinshang’s prowess, Tang Wan had to be polite when speaking to him.

“I’m not familiar with this place. Why don’t you decide.”

“Okay.”

“Get into my car?” Jiang Jinshang spoke in a polite manner. He was very considerate and wouldn’t make anyone feel uncomfortable. “I’ll send you back after we finish talking.”

“Thank you.” Tang Wan didn’t refuse.

However, the car that Jiang Jinshang got in was different from the usual ones. It was obviously custom-made in reference to his requirements. Tang Wan was wearing a long dress today. She raised her hand and tucked the dress away before carefully getting into the car.

The interior of the car was spacious. Although they sat on the same row, there was a person’s distance between them.

Tang Wan lowered her head and sent a message to her grandfather. It was nothing more than to tell him that she might come home late. However, she didn’t expect the old man to call her.

“Hello, grandfather.” Tang Wan lowered her voice.

“I don’t have good eyesight. Why did you send me a message? It’s already noon. Why don’t you find a restaurant and have a chat while you eat?” The old man’s voice was so loud that everyone in the car heard it.

Tang Wan said perfunctorily, “I know. I’ll be back soon.”

“Jinshang’s a pretty good kid. You should get along well with him. Don’t worry about coming home late. It’s his first time coming to Pingjiang. Show him our hospitality, will you?”

Before Old Master Tang hung up the phone, he deliberately added, “He came for you.”

The Jiang family members sitting in the passenger seat lowered their heads and chuckled. Old Master Tang did not hold back at all.

Tang Wan hung up the phone and lowered her head in embarrassment.

However, Jiang Jinshang asked, “Which restaurant are we going to?”

Did she say that she was going to a restaurant?

However, she was in a difficult spot, so she got to know his preferences. “Do you have any preferences?”

His body was not in good shape, so logically speaking, there should be plenty of food he can’t consume.

“I’m fine. You can choose.”

After he said this, the two people in the front passenger seats looked at each other and rolled their eyes.

Right, he’s not a picky eater at all!

The entire Jiang family knew there were two picky eaters in their house. One was Fifth Master, and the other was the little demon.

However, Jiang Jinshang’s body didn’t allow him to be picky about his food, so the situation in their family was usually that a certain elder brother would keep an eye on his son while guarding his younger brother.

His mother couldn’t stand it and said, “Jinshang, aren’t you an uncle too? Can’t you set a good example for your nephew?”

Jiang Jinshang only raised his eyebrows and said, “A good example also needs to be set off by a bad example. Big brother is his father, he’ll be the good guy while I play the role of a bad person. Isn’t that great?”

As he said this, he even picked up the shredded carrots that his little nephew picked out and put them back into his bowl.

“Don’t be like me. I am so sick now because I was a picky eater back then.”

The little guy looked at the shredded carrots in his bowl with a dumbfounded expression.

Everyone else around the dinner table were thinking of the same thing. Why would he say such things, it was just a case of being picky with their food.

Then, he picked the food he didn’t want out, going against what he just said, and disregarding the example he was setting for his nephew.

He now said that he could eat whatever he wanted. If the restaurant Ms. Tang chose was not to his liking, it would be awkward if his cutleries remained stationary for the entire meal.

***

Tang Wan had no idea that Jiang Jinshang was a picky eater. She chose a restaurant that she thought was great, rather healthy, and had a good environment.

The car arrived. As Tang Wan was sitting on the inside, Jiang Jinshang got out of the car first and stopped to wait for her.

This car was specially tailored for Jiang Jin’s condition. There were many handrails in the car and some were even exquisitely designed. In short, it was convenient for him. A normal person would find it inconvenient instead.

Tang Wan moved out of the car and subconsciously wanted to find something to support her body. However, the structure of the car was different. Her fingers searched for a long time, but she couldn’t find anything to support her body.

“Tang…” the chauffeurs knew this was what would happen for anyone else if it was their first time riding in the car and wanted to offer their help.

Before they could finish, Jiang Jinshang spoke, “Do you need any help?”

Before Tang Wan could say anything, she saw a hand appeared in front of her.

His nails were neatly manicured. They were cold white, and the joints were slender and distinct. His fingers were very long, but they were very well-proportioned.

“I’m good.”

Tang Wan remembered that Tang Mo was scolded merely because she addressed him wrongly. No matter how good-looking this person was, she would not dare to be impudent to him.

He was polite, but she wouldn’t cross the limits.

Tang Wan got out of the car carefully. Jiang Jinshang was standing beside the car. He subconsciously raised his hand in case her head hits the rail.

“Thank you.”

A man who was handsome and tall, gentlemanly and considerate. Tang Wan instantly felt the increased beating in her heart.

They were standing rather close to each other.

He looked thin, but when his figure enveloped her, it could envelop her entire body.

There was a faint smell of disinfectants on his body, mixed with a hint of bitter and sweet medicine. It was not pungent, but when combined with the clean and refreshing smell on his body, she was unexpectedly moved.

She felt her hair suddenly brushing against his palm..

It was like a sudden awakening in spring. Her heart leaped.

“Slow down.” His voice had a bit of an accent, lazy and casual.

They were too close.

Although there was some distance between the two of them, that voice seemed to have an echo, pounding on her heart again and again.

It was pressing down on her heart and beating fiercely, dyeing her face red.

It was a rouge color, delicate and pretty.

“Thank you.” Tang Wan bit her lip. Jiang Jinshang was the epitome of chivalry…

…why couldn’t he live a little longer?

***

After Tang Wan got off the car, she thanked him and led him to the restaurant. She had booked a table online earlier, and the waiter led them to the private room.

“The dishes in this restaurant are not as heavy on taste. They should be suitable for your taste,” Tang Wan introduced with a smile.

Jiang Jinshang only nodded and didn’t say anything. He couldn’t help but rub his palms.

He remembered brushing against his nephew’s head, whose hair was very short, and prickly.

And her hair was too soft. It felt a little..

It was a heart-wrenching itch.

It should be very easy to soothe her hair.

***

At this moment, in the Jiang family, a group of people were eating around the table. When they learned that Tang Wan and Jiang Jinshang were eating out alone, they couldn’t help but feel worried.

A little guy was seriously picking out the carrots in his bowl. “Uncle’s not a cannibal, why are you worried that he’ll do anything to Aunty?”

Everybody looked at each other.

“Isn’t it inappropriate to call her Aunty?” The person beside him reminded. It might cause unnecessary troubles to those who heard it.

His younger brother didn’t care. Everyone in the city knew that he had a bad temper. His little reputation wasn’t afraid of being tarnished. He was only afraid of ruining the little girl’s reputation.

“Do you want to marry her so she can be my stepmother?” The little guy pursed his lips and poked the rice in his bowl.

After being away from his mother for so long, his father was finally looking for a second chance at love?

The man didn’t say anything. He just silently poured the carrots he picked out into his bowl.

The little guy pursed his lips and took a deep breath. His expression was solemn.

Oh well..
