Chapter 286: 197 Fifth Master’s considerate gentleness, the crappy dad’s sly maneuvers_2 She had her period, which used to be very regular, but since the incident and grandpa being hospitalized, busy days had thrown everything out of whack. Normally, she didn’t have severe menstrual pain—perhaps it was because the heating in the north was so robust. Staying indoors and eating ice pops, she never felt cold and naturally indulged a bit more. She turned on the light, went to the restroom, and wrapped in a blanket, she broke out in sweat. Her eyelids felt heavy, and her abdomen felt as if something was churning inside, causing unbearable pain. She didn’t know how much time had passed, semi-asleep and semi-awake, when she felt someone shaking her shoulder. “Wanwan? Wanwan...” The bedroom light was on, shining on Jinsang’s face, which was very close. He frowned slightly and touched her forehead, “What’s wrong?” “Xiaowu?” Tang Wan’s voice was hoarsely unrecognizable. “You got your period?” Tang Wan felt somewhat embarrassed. How did he know everything? Jinsang, having been frequently ill himself, knew her condition didn’t look like a cold or fever. Seeing her evasive eyes, he pretty much guessed it. Not knowing what to do, he texted Zhou Zhongqing to ask how to alleviate menstrual pain. Zhou Zhongqing had surgery that day, and just as the patient left the operating room and was out of danger, amidst the snowy and windy night, he, being alone in the world with no one at home to keep the light on, ended up staying at the hospital. When he saw the message, he almost spat a mouthful of old blood on the screen! What did this lad take him for, running to him with a fever or menstrual pain? He wasn’t a gynecologist, after all. He could only share some advice based on experience. Tang Wan was sleeping groggily, and only felt a pair of hands reaching into the blanket, touching her waist and abdomen over her clothes, and gently rubbing her belly. “Wanwan?” Jinsang frowned—her body felt very cold. Of the entire Jiang family, his room had the most heating. After hesitating for a moment, he still lifted the blanket, bent down, and carried her back to his room. The heat came from all directions, Tang Wan indeed felt a bit more comfortable, but he didn’t have a hot water bottle. He went downstairs and eventually ended up knocking on Fan Mingyu’s door. “Why are you still up so late?” Fan Mingyu and Jiang Zhenhuan hadn’t gone to bed either. Jiang Yanting had given them several shocks today, and they were discussing that. “Do you have a hot water bottle?” “What’s wrong?” It was almost midnight by then. “Wanwan is feeling uncomfortable.” “Menstrual pain? Is it severe? There is ginger tea in the kitchen cabinet, make her a cup. If it’s really bad, have her take a painkiller...” Fan Mingyu instructed for a while. Watching him carry the items upstairs, he returned to his room and muttered with Jiang Zhenhuan, “Our Xiaowu has actually learned to be caring? Did you see how careful he was, even studying the painkiller instructions for so long?” “In the past, he was the youngest in the family, always cared for by others. Who would have thought, he’d have his day too, the kid... he’s grown up...” In the eyes of his parents, Jinsang, even if he were now in his forties or fifties, would probably still be a child. Holding the items, Jinsang walked slowly. When he reached the second floor, it coincidentally happened that he saw Jiang Yanting coming out from his own room and heading to Jiangjiang’s door, seemingly about to turn the knob and enter... From the corner of his eye catching sight of Jinsang, Jiangjiang’s face showed no embarrassment, even signaling with his eyes: Hurry up and scram! Jinsang chuckled softly—sneaking into your sister-in-law’s room in the middle of the night, have you no shame! Actually, at that moment in Shen Zhixian’s eyes, he felt he owed Jiangjiang a lot, likely wishing he could be with him every moment, so after leaving the study, he went straight to Jiangjiang’s bedroom to sleep with the child. A household of four, and he’s the lone wolf! This statement, when said out loud, even sounded somewhat amusing. Jinsang stood at the corner, even though threatened, he didn’t move, his eyes brimming with a smile as he watched, evidently curious to see how outrageous his actions could be. But Jiangjiang completely ignored him and just pushed the door open, making Jinsang involuntarily raise an eyebrow. So shameless! ... When he got upstairs, he handed the hot water bottle to Tang Wan and coaxed her into drinking the ginger tea with a small amount of brown sugar added, but the strong ginger flavor made Tang Wan inevitably frown. “Drink it and then sleep.” Jinsang tested the tea at the rim of the cup. Honestly, he didn’t like ginger, nor onions, garlic, or cilantro. Tang Wan wasn’t so squeamish to need coaxing to feed her; she drank it all in big gulps, and after taking the medication, her mouth was filled with a spicy taste, followed by some warm water to rinse it out. “Spicy—” There were ginger bits inside, making Tang Wan slightly furrow her brow. Just as the next second struck, Jiang Jinsang suddenly lowered his head and pressed his lips to the corner of hers. Tang Wan slightly frowned, she had just drunk ginger sugar water, why did he just... It wasn’t until Tang Wan’s breath became uneven, her face flushed red, and she was gasping for air, her skin burning hot, that he finally let go. “Sleep.” Jiang Jinsang helped her cover up with the blanket. “I’m sleeping here, how are you...” Tang Wan didn’t finish her sentence when Jiang Jinsang had already walked to the other side of the bed, pulled back the blanket, and slid in, her back to him, their bodies not touching at all. Her abdomen was still faintly aching, and she quickly fell into a deep sleep. In a haze, she felt him pull her into his embrace from behind. By then, the hot water bottle was no longer as hot. Jiang Jinsang pulled out the hot water bottle and placed his hand on her abdomen. Tang Wan, already deeply asleep, stirred slightly awake. “Hmm?” The two, unable to sleep, ended up chatting for a while. “...Ms. Shen raising the child alone must be really tough. Taotao is still very adorable.” “Wanwan.” “Hmm?” “Do you prefer boys or girls?” Tang Wan’s face heated up. At such a time, with both of them lying in one bed, the implication of his words was: I want to have babies with you! “I don’t know,” Tang Wan answered vaguely. “My elder brother has two, shouldn’t we also try hard?” Tang Wan was amused and exasperated. Having kids was not a competition; what was there to ‘try hard’ for? Besides, they hadn’t even progressed to that step yet. ** Meanwhile, downstairs at that moment, when Jiang Yanting entered the bedroom, a small night light illuminated the head of the bed, toys scattered everywhere, clearly the work of a particular someone. He bent down, picking up toys while making his way to the bedside. Shen Zhixian was sleeping on the edge of the bed, with the children in the middle. Jiangjiang had sprawled out, the blanket covering only his stomach, his legs thrown over Taotao’s. His sleeping posture was truly... Ugly! He lifted his hand to adjust Jiangjiang’s position, and with that movement, Shen Zhixian instantly woke up. Her sleep was shallow. Perhaps not expecting to see Jiang Yanting, her pupils widened slightly, and the next second, her mouth was covered, her breath becoming heavy... “Shush—” With the kids asleep, Shen Zhixian naturally didn’t dare to move. But with the way he was covering her mouth, Jiang Yanting’s half body was pressing down on hers. Even through a layer of blanket, it made Shen Zhixian’s heart tremble, her breathing growing more rapid. The scorching breath fell on the back of his hand... Very hot! Shen Zhixian raised her hand, trying to move his away. Jiang Yanting followed her intentions, releasing his hand, the suffocating feeling of being oppressed slightly fading as Shen Zhixian just breathed a sigh of relief. The next second, her lips were sealed— “Umm—” Shen Zhixian’s pupils dilated, was this man crazy! Jiangjiang lay on one side, his mind in turmoil! Should he open his eyes or not? This was too hard! His shitty dad had too much nerve, bursting into his room in the dead of night like this! After what felt like an eternity, he heard the door close. Thinking it was his dad who had left, he finally opened his eyes, but then... Where was Mom?
