The Huo Family’s car was approaching the flyover when the man in the back seat faintly said, "Let’s go back to the Jiang Family."
Once the car got on the flyover, it was difficult to turn back.
The people from the Huo Family chuckled under their breath, at the end of the day, they were probably worried that Uncle Jiang really would spend the night by the roadside. Even though it was the beginning of spring, the weather in Beijing would make it unbearable to spend a whole night outside even for someone fit and healthy.
As the car entered the residential area and slowed down, when they were about to reach the Jiang family’s house, they saw a woman helping Jiang Chengsi walk toward the house...
"Sir, it looks like Uncle Jiang is quite popular."
Before the people from the Huo Family could finish speaking, perhaps because the woman didn’t have enough strength, she slightly staggered, and Jiang Chengsi fell towards the other side.
His head hit a green tree with a "Duang——" sound.
"Should... should we go help?" the people from the Huo Family were stunned, given her way of helping, Uncle Jiang would surely be covered in bruises by tomorrow morning.
"No need, just turn the car around and head back."
Now that they were sure Jiang Chengsi wouldn’t be spending the night outside, it didn’t matter whether he would end up with brain damage from the collision.
Over here, Shen Shuci had a terrible headache. She had initially thought about just leaving him outside, but her heart softened in the end. Even though she was strong, the difference between her and Jiang Chengsi wasn’t just in weight, but also in height.
Struggling to help him up and putting his arm over her shoulder, he was so tall that his legs could only drag on the ground, adding to the difficulty for Shen Shuci to get him into the house.
"Why is he so heavy!" Shen Shuci gritted her teeth. Just after taking a few steps, she was tempted to throw him on the ground and kick him hard twice.
When she came out, she had thought about giving him a couple of kicks on his body, but she never did things that took advantage of others in distress. Even if she wanted to beat him, it would be a fair competition.
Thinking about challenging him once he woke up, she staggered, and he was flung out, hitting his head against a tree!
She was frightened and hurriedly supported his arm, using her back to prop him.
Even so, he didn’t wake up; how much had he drunk?
Shen Shuci was carrying him into the house with great difficulty and stumbles. When they reached the doorstep, there were two steps left. By then, her strength was nearly spent. Barely lifting her foot because the person moved, their balance was thrown off, and they nearly fell together—
They didn’t fall, but Jiang Chengsi hit his head against the door.
It was a metal security door; the impact was not light.
Shen Shuci bit her lip, how many times had it been now...
Eventually managing to get him inside, Shen Shuci was at a loss—where did he live?
Everyone was asleep, and it wouldn’t be right to disturb them. If it was upstairs, she had no strength left. After some thought, she simply left him on the sofa and went back to get him a thin blanket.
When Fan Mingyu arranged the rooms, she had reminded her that if it felt cold, there were spare blankets in the cupboard.
When she returned, Jiang Chengsi had somehow rolled off the sofa.
Shen Shuci stared at him intently; all she could think was:
"Auntie?" Tang Wan couldn’t sleep at all with Jiang Jinsang at the hospital, and with Jiang Yanting in the hospital, Jiangjiang was alone on the second floor. She hadn’t gone back to her room but was accompanying him in his room instead. The child had gone to sleep early, but she was tossing and turning, only coming downstairs when she heard the noise of someone bumping into the door.
"Still awake?" It was already close to 12 o’clock.
"What’s this..." Tang Wan frowned because Shen Shuci was still holding a blanket in her arms.
"It’s that guy." Shen Shuci pointed to the person lying across the floor, "Drunk , someone left him at the door."
"I don’t know which room he lives in, and I didn’t have the strength to help him back to his room, so I thought he could just spend the night in the living room."
"In the living room?" Tang Wan bit her lip, "Sleeping on the floor?"
"I helped him lie on the sofa, but he rolled off himself."
"Let’s help him back to his room."
With Tang Wan joining in, it was much easier for the two of them to get him back to the room, but Tang Wan had a back injury, and supporting him strained her a bit. Nearing the bed, the pain made it difficult for her to breathe, so she had to let go of some of her effort.
That caused Jiang Chengsi’s body weight to press entirely on Shen Shuci. She was taken aback, and her body tilted...
"Bang—" someone fell on the bed, bumping his head against the headboard, with yet another heavy thud.
Tang Wan and Shen Shuci exchanged glances...
"Auntie." Tang Wan bit her lip, "I didn’t mean to."
After all, he had already been hit twice before, what’s one more time.
Tang Wan got up before dawn to make soup. It wasn’t until the old lady woke up that she learned Jiang Jinsang had been hospitalized the previous night. The Tang Family came over, but seeing how dutiful Tang Wan appeared, they felt that Xiaowu was indeed fortunate.
