The Tang family is going to be here for a while, so there’s plenty of time to talk,” Fan Mingyu called everyone to take their seats. At the round table, the seating was arranged according to age and seniority. The elderly lady had wanted to sit Tang Wan next to herself to chat a bit more, but after a second thought, she decided it was best to give her grandson some opportunity. If Tang Wan really became part of their family in the future, there would be plenty of time to talk. The Jiang brothers always kept a poker face, and the elderly lady couldn’t guess which one Tang Wan would prefer. She arranged the seating accordingly... Tang Wan found herself inexplicably seated between the Jiang brothers. “Yanting, Xiaowu, take good care of Wanwan. Don’t neglect her. And Wanwan, don’t be shy, make yourself at home and eat up. Look how thin you are.” Jiang Jinsang went with the flow and offered her a shrimp tail, “Don’t be shy.” “Thank you.” Tang Wan was not foolish; the old lady’s intentions were quite clear. The elderly lady, holding her chopsticks, glaringly focused on Jiang Yanting. Her eyes signalled to him: Start serving her! What are you dallying for! Can you even... Jiang Yanting had absolutely no interest in Tang Wan, she was not his type at all, but with grandma staring him down, he reluctantly went through the motions and served her some food just for the sake of it. “Thank you.” Tang Wan was especially polite to him. The elderly lady shook her head helplessly. Not an ounce of enthusiasm for the young lady; it was not surprising at all that a wife would run away from that. If it were her, she would run away too! ... When the Tang family was over, they were bound to drink a bit, and when everyone started toasting and clinking glasses, Tang Wan unconsciously scooched her stool a half-inch closer to Jiang Jinsang’s side. People are like that, preferring the company of those they’re familiar with. Moreover, Tang Wan was somewhat guarded against Jiang Yanting; moving towards the other side was almost subconscious. Seated beside one another, their sleeves would brush each other’s when they reached for food. Though the north was cold, there was central heating, and everyone was lightly dressed, rubbing against each other back and forth. It was like playful friction, markedly intimate. * After a round of drinks, Tang Wan stood up and toasted the elders of the Jiang family. “Girls shouldn’t drink too much, have some tea. Just a gesture is enough. Our families are so close, we’re practically relatives, no need to be so formal,” smiled the old lady. “It’s okay, just a little,” said Tang Wan as she held her cup and went around toasting. However, when she reached Jiang Zhenhuan, the man who was accustomed to higher positions still exuded a strong deterrent force even when sitting. “Uncle Jiang, thank you for your hospitality, I’d like to offer you a toast,” said Tang Wan with a smile. “Sit!” Jiang Zhenhuan’s voice was low, clearly he didn’t want her to be so formal, but his words came out as if he were commanding someone. “It’s okay, I’m the junior, it’s only right.” Fan Mingyu coughed twice, prompting her husband to say a bit more. Jiang Zhenhuan nodded, “Don’t be formal.” “After all, we are the ones imposing.” “Settle in with peace of mind.” ... Their conversation was extremely dull and boring, and Jiang Zhenhuan even brought the topic around to work: “I just heard from Uncle Tang that you landed a big order...” It’s typical of elders, any small achievement of their children is praised tenfold. Moreover, Tang Wan had indeed secured an investment of several hundred million from Qi Zeyan. Tang Wan smiled modestly, “It’s not really such a big order.” “Aside from work, remember to rest as well. It’s good for a girl to have a bit of a career.” “I know.” “Not bad, pretty good.” When it came to business, Jiang Zhenhuan had plenty to talk about. The elderly lady coughed twice as a reminder to someone: That’s enough now! Discussing work with young men is one thing, but why are you dragging a young lady into this! It was then that Jiang Zhenhuan shifted the topic. After a few more words, he felt that Tang Wan, being entrepreneurial, although not on a large scale, had her own unique insights and perseverance. He felt that this soft-spoken young lady had her own personality and found himself quite fond of her. He was just cold and stern faced, and Tang Wan was scared to death when she talked to him, not hoping at all to make him like her. Fan Mingyu, on the other hand, was very enthusiastic. When the meal was nearing its end and everyone was chatting, she simply squeezed Jiang Yanting away and sat next to Tang Wan, talking with her for a long time. During this process, Jiangjiang was naturally clever and charming, always winning everybody’s favour. But in the end, there was another scene that made him the most embarrassed... He really didn’t understand why, whenever there were guests at home, the elders always liked to make him perform some talent. He was tone-deaf but was still forced to sing “Little Donkey”, and if he ever took up Martial Arts, who knows, they might just clear a space for him to perform a backflip. The fact is, as elders, they thought the child was excellent and wished the whole world could see his talents. But Jiangjiang’s face was ashen. Despite being young, he cared about face, right? He had been singing this “Little Donkey” for two or three years now, how could his great-grandmother not be tired of it at all. ** The meal was lively and went on until half-past three in the afternoon before it ended... The Tang Family came to stay temporarily, and besides bringing some Pingjiang specialties, Tang Wan had also brought a little gift for each person. She had enquired from Jiang Jinsang about everyone’s preferences, but she couldn’t fathom the old lady’s. In the end, she made a Cyan Feather brooch by hand for her. Capturing the spirit of Cyan Feather in a vivid painting, a charm all its own. Being hand-made, it certainly carried a different sentiment; the old lady loved it so much that it made Fan Mingyu envious. Being the elder, however, it was not good to ask for one outright. Tang Wan observed this and thought about when she would have some time to make one for her too, but there weren’t proper facilities around, and she feared the product might be flawed. “The meal was so late, Uncle Tang, you should go back to your room to rest first. Let’s have dinner later; we’re probably not very hungry. I’ll just make some porridge, okay?” Fan Mingyu was very reliable in handling things. Old Man Tang, seeing his old friend, was in a good mood, “You arrange it.” “Then I’ll help you back to your room. Xiaowu, Wanwan is staying on the third floor; you take her upstairs,” Fan Mingyu instructed. Actually, the old lady, the Jiang Zhenhuan couple, all lived on the first floor, so Old Man Tang and Tang Yunxian were all staying on this side. “I’m staying on the third floor?” Tang Wan certainly wanted to be closer to her family. “There are no rooms on the first floor,” Fan Mingyu said with a smile. Jiang Family members: The number one bluffer! There are clearly lots of rooms on the first floor. Fan Mingyu continued with her reasoning, “The second floor is for Yanting and Jiangjiang. I heard you like quietness, and kids, well, they can be a bit noisy.” Jiangjiang blinked. When did he ever make noise? “So you follow Xiaowu and sleep on the third floor.” Tang Wan pursed her lips; she found herself unable to refute this reason. Jiang Jiu acted even quicker: “Miss Tang, then I’ll help you move your luggage upstairs.” “It’s not that, my...” Tang Wan could see that the Jiang house was huge and there were guest rooms on the first floor. She still wanted to argue, but Jiang Jiu had already taken big strides and set off upstairs. Jiang Cuo squinted his fox eyes in frustration, damn it, Miss Tang’s heart, I carried into the house from the car. I haven’t even started to build rapport, and you’re already showing off. Saying this, he grumbled and carried the rest of Tang Wan’s luggage upstairs. Jiangjiang also wanted to protest, but just as he said “Sis...” his mouth was covered from behind, “Mmm—” He kicked his little legs. What the heck was dad doing! “You just said you wanted to go to the bathroom; I’ll take you there!” Jiang Yanting certainly didn’t want the kid suddenly blurting out something that could be misconstrued. The best method was to whisk him away directly! Mouth covered, entire body held tight under Jiang Yanting’s arm, with his little legs still kicking in the air: He didn’t want to go to the toilet! Besides, I’m a grown man now, even if I did need to go, I don’t need you accompanying me... ... Jiang Jinsang looked at Tang Wan, “Let’s go, upstairs. I’ll show you to your room.” The old lady said with a smile, “Hurry on, hurry on!” Tang Wan had no choice but to follow him step by step upstairs... The higher they went, the sounds from below faded until they reached the second-floor corner where only their footsteps on the stairs could be heard. The stairs were covered with wooden boards, the sound alternating lightly and heavily. Upon entering the third floor, the corridor’s style was completely different from the other areas. She... Had entered Jiang Jinsang’s private space.
