When Jiang Chongjing saw him, his eyes flickered. “Yanshen, so you haven’t rested yet?”
As they had yet to officially fall out, Jiang Chongjing could still shamelessly pretend that nothing had happened.
Jiang Yanshen placed his hands in his pockets and looked down at him. The light in his black eyes was as sharp as thin paper.
His thin lips curled up slightly. “You’re disturbing my rest.”
The smile on Jiang Chongjing’s face froze, and he reacted in a few seconds. “Aren’t I just worried about you? Sister-in-law is really too much. No matter what, we’re still family. Why make things so ugly?”
As he spoke, he sighed and said hypocritically, “Yanshen, don’t worry. I’ll definitely persuade her when I get back.”
“Thank you, Second Uncle.” With that, Jiang Yanshen turned to leave.
“Yanshen…” Jiang Chongjing called out to him. “Look, the company has suffered a lot because of you. Shouldn’t you rest well and repair your relationship with
Sister-in-law as soon as possible? How can mother and son have overnight grudges?”
Jiang Yanshen’s tall and slender figure paused. He turned his head slightly to reveal half of his face and looked down at Jiang Chongjing from the corner of his eye, as if he was scanning an ant. A moment later, he squeezed out a word. “Scram.”
The smile on Jiang Chongjing’s face completely froze. Anger surged from the bottom of his heart, and the muscles on his face trembled. ‘You…
He wanted to go upstairs, but he was stopped by Gu Xici the moment he took a step.
Lin Qingqian stood behind Gu Xici, her eyes cold. “Second Master Jiang, please go back.”
Jiang Chongjing’s dark eyes swept across the three of them. In the end, he snorted coldly and left.
Lin Qingqian watched as Jiang Chongjing walked out and heaved a sigh of relief.
Gu Xici said thankfully, “Fortunately, Ah Yan is back.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the figure who had originally returned to his room upstairs ran up to Lin Qingqian. His exquisite facial features were filled with a bright smile. “Big Sister, did I act well?”
Gu Xici was stunned.
Lin Qingqian let go of her sweaty hand and smiled. “Yes, it’s very good.”
“Then do I have minced meat noodles to eat?” He hugged Lin Qingqian’s arm and shook it. “Big Sister, I’m so hungry.”
Lin Qingqian: “I’ll go make it for you now. Go back to your room and wait for me.”
“Alright.” Jiang Xiao Jiu agreed immediately and turned to go upstairs. After taking a few steps, he turned around worriedly and said, “Big Sister, hurry…”
Lin Qingqian looked up at him and smiled faintly. “Alright.”
Only then did Jiang Xiao Jiu return to his room to wait in relief.
Gu Xici came back to his senses and frowned. “He’s Jiang Xiao Jiu?”
Lin Qingqian nodded. “On the way back, I was worried that you wouldn’t be able to stop Jiang Chongjing, so I asked Xiao Jiu to pretend to be fiercer!”
“Fortunately, he acted quite well. Jiang Chongjing shouldn’t be suspicious.”
The light in Gu Xici’s eyes was dark as he looked upstairs. His thin lips parted slightly. “I thought he was Ah Yan just now.
Lin Qingqian followed his gaze and looked over. There was only an empty staircase. “After all, it’s Ah Yan’s split personality. There will more or less be Ah Yan’s shadow on him.”
Gu Xici didn’t reply. He narrowed his eyes and changed the topic. “I’m going back. Can you do it alone?”
Lin Qingqian nodded. “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome. Ah Yan and I are brothers after all.” When he said the word “brothers”, he couldn’t help but look upstairs again.
When Lin Qingqian sent him out, Chen Mu had just returned. Other than the blood and dust on his clothes, he was fine.
“What’s going on?” Gu Xici frowned and asked.
“When I came back, I met someone blocking me,” Lin Qingqian replied in a gentle voice. At this moment, she had already calmed down. Gu Xici’s eyes darkened.. “Jiang Chongjing did this?”
