Chapter 65 Is she unable to understand human speech? ...

Wen Lingshuang's eyes were slightly closed as she nestled in Jiang An's arms, letting him caress her at will. Her arms were wrapped around his neck as she inhaled his faint fragrance.

She didn't open her eyes until he rubbed her until it hurt, and stared at him, "Jiang An."

"Hmm?" His voice was a little rough.

She gripped his wrist, staring intently at him. "I suddenly remembered something."

"What's up?"

"That maid deliberately brought me here to talk about your affair with some woman."

Wen Lingshuang had seen this kind of trick many times. When she was very young, when her father was in his prime, many women wanted to climb the social ladder by clinging to him. They would wait for him at his hotel while he was away on business trips, or they would approach her mother and send her many photos of her father seemingly indulging in a life of pleasure. The first time she saw her father drinking with another woman, she was furious, but her mother just smiled and patted her hand, saying, "Your father has a complicated network of relationships outside, and he often needs to play along."

It means she doesn't care.

But how can I not care?

There is another woman who wants to take over their family, and another person who wants to break into their home.

Later, after seeing many such tricks, one realizes that there are countless paths in this world. Some people want to take the main road, while others want to take shortcuts. Everyone's choices are different, but the destination is the same. Therefore, shortcuts are narrow and dangerous, yet they are the most popular.

She had witnessed Yao Fei's tricks when she was very young.

Besides, I'm all grown up now.

Her cooperating with the act doesn't mean she's brainless.

She was still angry about Jiang An's matter.

Her pretty face puffed out slightly, and she pouted as she said, "Is what she said true or false? What woman? Have you been with other women before me?"

Jiang An felt a headache coming on when she mentioned the past.

These are the things he least wanted her to know about the Jiang family.

He gently straightened her clothes and said calmly, "I told you not to get angry."

Yes, there really is.

Wen Lingshuang barely managed to suppress her anger. "You tell me, I'll see how it goes."

Jiang An raised an eyebrow. "Depend on the situation?"

"If the situation isn't serious, I'll let you off the hook. If it is, I plan to ignore you for a month!" She crossed her arms and tilted her head back arrogantly. "Maybe it will be longer, maybe a year."

Jiang An let out a muffled laugh from deep in his throat.

His adorable nature is excessive.

He reached out and ruffled her hair, then recounted everything that had happened in her youth in a calm tone, as if he were telling someone else's story. There was no joy or sorrow, so no emotion could be felt, and naturally, no one would feel sympathy or pity for him.

Even so, Wen Lingshuang was still dumbfounded and astonished after hearing it.

Seeing her expression, Jiang An gently and affectionately rubbed her cheeks, trying to help her relax.

But how can I relax?

Such a thing happened on Jiang An's coming-of-age day. You should know that her coming-of-age ceremony was carefully prepared by her parents for more than half a year. At the grand banquet, she was the only protagonist, the only princess. She ushered in her new life amidst the blessings of the guests, the shining spotlight, and the congratulations of her parents and relatives.

Jiang An's life, however, was spent in endless slander and framing.

So, on the day he turned 18, did he pack his bags and move into the remote Nanxi Villa all by himself?

Wen Lingshuang felt a surge of heartache and sadness. She even felt that she had been too lenient earlier and should not have let the Jiang family off so easily or given in so readily.

Jiang An embraced her, gently stroking her back to comfort her, "Don't be sad, I'm fine."

Wen Lingshuang felt a lump in her throat as he held her.

She clutched his shirt with her little hands, whimpered twice, then pushed him away to check his fingers.

She had a scar on his finger before, and she got him some medicine. He's been applying it for the past few months, but she doesn't know if it's gone away yet.

The ointment is truly amazing.

After applying the cream for several months, the old scars are no longer visible.

Wen Lingshuang looked at it several times to make sure there were no scars, and then said, "I'm not sad."

Then she examined all ten fingers, looking at him with her red eyes, and asked, "Did anything happen between you and that woman?"

Jiang An pinched her rosy cheeks, "I didn't even get a good look at what she looked like."

"You're lying," she retorted. "Your eyesight is excellent!"

"..." Jiang An had a headache. "I'm only good to you in terms of eyesight."

He could see everything clearly, especially the red mole on her waist. Every time he turned her over and pinched her waist, he liked to brush against that red mole.

Wen Lingshuang pouted and said, "I don't believe it."

After saying that, she snuggled into his arms again, "Don't worry, I will definitely avenge you!"

Hearing her confident words, Jiang An said earnestly, "Yangyang, listen carefully, I don't need you to do anything for me."

"But you are my husband. If you've been wronged, how can I not avenge you?" She broke free from his embrace and looked at him seriously. "You know my temper. If someone bullies me, I will repay them a thousandfold. What do you mean by 'repaying a debt tomorrow'? I will repay this debt today!"

Watching her red lips move as she spoke, Jiang An's heart softened completely.

He reached out and grabbed the back of her neck, kissing her directly to silence her incessant chatter.

Their lips and tongues intertwined, their saliva exchanged.

Wen Lingshuang was so overwhelmed by his kisses that she couldn't speak, letting him take her as he pleased.

She didn't stop him when the large hand went in.

She let out a soft, coquettish sound, and then heard Jiang An say in her ear, "When you go downstairs later, tell Dad that you're not staying here anymore and that you're going home."

"No...no." She bit her red lips, clutching his shirt. "I'll stay here."

Jiang An frowned. "Are you sure?"

“Yes, I’m sure,” she answered with difficulty.

Jiang An tightened his grip, "If it's here..."

He paused briefly, then said, "It's not good for you to shout so loudly."

"I won't call it."

Jiang An chuckled softly, "You couldn't help it."

"I can endure it."

She couldn't help but gasp softly as soon as she finished speaking.

He went in so deep!

Jiang An asked again, "Aren't you leaving yet?"

"I'm not leaving." She gritted her teeth and insisted, "Go ahead and try to cause trouble all night if you dare."

"Don't provoke me, I can stay inside you all night."

Wen Lingshuang: "..."

She bit her red lips and began to play the emotional card, "Jiang An, don't you think about how long our lives are? You're away on business trips a lot, and when Ms. Yao comes to cause me trouble while you're away, what am I supposed to do? You have to let me find out about her situation, and besides..."

After a pause and a long hesitation, he finally spoke: "I'm willing to let you stay inside for one night."

He mentioned before that he didn't want to come out and wanted to stay inside her body all night to sleep.

How can I sleep on something so hard?

She refused.

Now, she's using this as a bargaining chip.

Jiang An's dark eyes narrowed. With his abilities, protecting her for the rest of her life would be easy; there was absolutely no need for her to confront Yao Fei directly.

But these conditions are...too tempting.

He thought for a moment, then slightly swallowed his Adam's apple. "Deal."

*

Since it was Wen Lingshuang's first visit, and Jiang An had agreed to stay at the house for a few days, and since this was his first time home since leaving the Jiang family many years ago, Jiang Hanyu took it very seriously and instructed the kitchen to prepare the meals according to Jiang An and Wen Lingshuang's preferences.

The chef asked Jiang An about his preferences.

Jiang An has not lived in the Jiang family for many years, and the kitchen did not keep records of his preferences in the early years, so it is even less likely that it will now.

Jiang Hanyu thought for a moment and prepared to go upstairs to ask Jiang An.

When she reached the top of the stairs, she saw Jiang Qi, waved to him, and said, "Go to Jiang An's room and ask him about his food preferences."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qi's face darkened. "I'm not going."

"You're an adult, don't make things so ugly."

Over the years, Jiang Xu, Jiang Qi, and Jiang An have maintained a superficial peace, a fact that Jiang Hanyu is well aware of; but since when, Jiang Qi seems less willing to pretend to be at peace.

Jiang Hanyu emphasized, "This is Ling Shuang's first visit; don't embarrass the Jiang family."

Jiang Qi frowned, and after a long while, he reluctantly agreed and turned to go upstairs.

He walked casually and absentmindedly to Jiang An's door. Seeing the door tightly closed, he was furious. Yesterday, his mother had told him that Wen Lingshuang would be back today. To prevent outsiders from knowing about their past scandals, she had Jiang Xu give up his room. The room with the best lighting in the entire manor was to be given to Jiang An.

That despicable illegitimate child.

Jiang Qi grew angrier the more he thought about it, and raised his foot to kick the door.

Just as I lifted my leg, I heard a soft, gentle "hmm" from inside the door, like the soothing sound of a seductive fox being stroked.

Before he could react, the door opened.

The first thing that wafted over was a faint scent of jasmine.

He followed the scent and saw that Wen Lingshuang had taken off her coat at some point and was wearing a very thin knitted top, revealing her snow-white neck and collarbone. Her eyes were red at the corners, and her cheeks were alluring. He stared for a few seconds without reacting, but Wen Lingshuang closed the door, straightened her clothes, and said, "Second Uncle, what a coincidence. So you like to eavesdrop."

Jiang Qi realized what was happening and his eyes widened suddenly. "Don't talk nonsense."

"Then what are you doing standing here?"

Jiang Qi said coldly, "Go ask Jiang An about his food preferences, and the kitchen will prepare his meals."

Wen Lingshuang looked him up and down and laughed, "You guys don't know Jiang An's preferences? Really?"

That sarcastic tone.

Jiang Qi clenched his teeth tightly. "Are you going to ask or not?"

"Jiang Qi, haven't you grasped the situation yet?" Wen Lingshuang crossed her arms and looked at him arrogantly. "How can you talk to me like that? You have to beg me, beg me to ask for you, because if you beg me, you can avoid a lot of trouble. If you don't beg me and ask yourself, Jiang An might not tell you."

This enchantress...

How exactly did Jiang An manage to subdue her?

Jiang Qi didn't want to have any contact with Jiang An and wanted to avoid conflict, so he could only repeatedly tell himself to be patient. He pursed his lips and said, "Sister-in-law, could you please ask Jiang An what he likes to eat? I remember he had many food allergies when he was a child. It wouldn't be good if he ate a dish that caused his allergies."

That attitude is absolutely awful.

Wen Lingshuang crossed her arms and said, "Okay, I'll ask for you."

After saying that, he opened and closed the door without giving Jiang Qi any chance.

Jiang Qi stared at the tightly closed door, gritting his teeth as he pointed, "Wen Lingshuang, you just wait!"

Jiang An was standing in front of the bed, straightening his shirt. Wen Lingshuang walked around to him and carefully examined his chest and abdominal muscles. They were well-defined and smoothly lined, and the muscles hanging on his chest were very attractive. She gently poked his chest with her index finger. Jiang An took her hand and asked, "Who was that just now?"

"Jiang Qi."

"Hmm?" Jiang An buttoned his shirt. "What did you say?"

"It's nothing, he just came to ask about your food preferences," Wen Lingshuang said with a smile. "When I used to have a good impression of Jiang Xu and Jiang Qi, I thought Jiang Qi was particularly smart. After today, I think he's incredibly stupid."

Jiang Xu and Jiang Qi received elite education from a young age, so it's no exaggeration to say they are intelligent.

However, in Jiang An's impression, Jiang Qi was a person who showed his emotions very outwardly, and his ruthlessness and decisiveness were inherited from Yao Fei. In comparison, Jiang Xu was much more calm and composed.

Jiang An pinched Wen Lingshuang's cheek. "Why do you say that?"

“We’re husband and wife, how could I not know your preferences? He still insisted that I ask you.”

Jiang An chuckled softly, "Is it possible?"

He paused briefly, "In their eyes, our marriage was a business arrangement, not true love."

After saying that, Wen Lingshuang's heart pounded wildly. "You truly love me?"

“I thought I had made it very clear with my body.”

Wen Lingshuang gave him a cute glare, "Let's try it tonight."

Jiang An was captivated by Wen Lingshuang's alluring and passionate side; she was charming yet innocent, and most women couldn't even emulate a tenth of her.

He gently pulled her into his arms. "Come on, let's go downstairs and have some tea, a break from the day."

What a great halftime break!

Wen Lingshuang obediently let him hold her in his arms as they walked downstairs.

Jiang Qi was sitting alone in the hall drinking tea, furious. He drank several cups of tea but still couldn't calm down. He turned his head and saw Jiang An coming over with Wen Lingshuang in his arms. His anger flared up even more. He slammed his teacup down on the table with a loud 'bang,' startling the passing servants who were on the move.

Wen Lingshuang also noticed the heat, but didn't care much. After sitting down with Jiang An, she fanned herself with her hand and said, "Oh my god, it's so hot, Jiang An, something in this house is on fire, let's call the police."

Jiang Qi: "..."

He clenched his fist and looked at her, "Wen Lingshuang, don't put your affected side in front of me."

Jiang An's dark eyes narrowed, and he was about to speak when Wen Lingshuang gestured for him to be quiet. Then she looked at Jiang Qi and said, "Second Uncle, what are you angry about? Are you angry that Jiang An came back? Hmm... but Aunt Yao and Dad insisted that we come back and stay. If you don't like it that much, then we'll leave, we'll leave..."

As she spoke, she grabbed Jiang An's hand, intending to leave.

This was the first time Jiang Qi had ever seen Wen Ling Shuang act like a spoiled princess, and in such an affected,... charming and alluring way...

No wonder those young masters in the circle who are so infatuated with her are so obsessed, even to the point of being so pretentious... it's impossible to dislike them at all.

Jiang An sat there, watching her like this, and couldn't help but smile.

Jiang Qi's temples were throbbing, his jawline was tense, and he said, "No one is telling you to leave, I'm leaving, I'm leaving!"

He stood up and walked upstairs without looking back.

Wen Lingshuang pretended to cry, watching his departing figure until he was out of sight, before throwing herself into Jiang An's arms and saying, "Finally gone. I felt uncomfortable with him sitting here."

Jiang An said with a smile, "Fortunately, it's me who's the one you're marrying."

"Hmm?" Wen Lingshuang looked at him. "What do you mean?"

"If you had more contact with Jiang Xu and Jiang Qi, I'm afraid this marriage wouldn't have been my turn."

Wen Lingshuang was puzzled. "I don't understand."

Jiang An didn't intend for her to understand, and kissed her forehead. "Sit down for a while, we'll eat later."

Wen Lingshuang nodded gently and leaned against him, playing on her phone.

The post she made on WeChat Moments before received a lot of likes and comments. Some people saw the hidden meaning in it and even replied with several "6666" and similar comments.

She scrolled through the comments, but was afraid of being seen by Jiang An, so she covered the screen with one hand and deliberately blocked Jiang An's view with the other.

Jiang An noticed it, but didn't pay much attention to it.

It's better not to look at the chat logs of her "bad friends"; I broke out in a cold sweat when I saw them last time.

Anne's famous statement: [Has Chairman Jiang's size and girth ever been measured?]

Claire's famous quote: [Is it fun or not?]

Grace's famous quote: "Does he like to enter sideways?"

I watched it once, and I never want to watch it again.

Fortunately, Yangyang did not reply to these messages.

She was very well-behaved and wasn't led astray.

The two sat on the sofa enjoying tea, and soon it was lunchtime.

The Jiang family has many rules, and there are specific etiquette rules for dining and seating arrangements. This was the case at least before Jiang An left the Jiang family, and it is unknown whether it is the case now.

According to his memory, he was not qualified to sit at the table. He only remembered that Jiang Hanyu sat at the main table, Yao Fei sat beside him, and Jiang Xu and Jiang Qi followed closely behind.

However, Wen Lingshuang sat directly in Jiang Hanyu's seat as soon as she sat down at the table.

The Wen family doesn't have many rules; they can sit wherever they like when they eat.

She pulled Jiang An's hand and sat down in Yao Fei's seat.

Seeing this, Yao Fei was about to speak when Jiang Hanyu smiled and said, "Ling Shuang, our Jiang family has a rule that seating should be arranged according to age."

Wen Lingshuang was slightly surprised, then stood up. "I'm sorry, Dad, I didn't know your family had this kind of rule. Jiang An didn't tell me..."

With a look of guilt and sadness, she threw herself into Jiang An's arms, "I'm so sorry..."

No one would want to see such a beautiful woman shed tears.

Jiang Hanyu wasn't angry. He smiled and said, "It's alright, please sit down."

After everyone was seated.

The dishes were served bowl by bowl, which was very ceremonial, but lacked any real human touch.

Perhaps because Wen Jinye only has one daughter, she is always the one who is in charge of everything. After coming to the Jiang family, she is restricted in many ways.

But I'm not angry.

After all, the two young masters Jiang Xu and Jiang Qi sitting opposite her looked even angrier than she was.

It would be best to infuriate them.

If the entire Jiang family belongs to Jiang An, then she is the mistress of the house.

"Let's have a meal," Jiang Hanyu said.

Only then did everyone pick up their utensils and start eating.

Today's meal was mostly based on Wen Lingshuang and Jiang An's preferences, so there was a lot of seafood. Jiang An picked out a few shrimp and peeled them for Wen Lingshuang to eat. She happily ate the shrimp and even turned her head to let Jiang An wipe the food stains off her lips.

They spoil her rotten in every way.

Jiang Qi grew angrier the more he looked.

I don't know if they're angry that Jiang Hanyu is so good to them, or angry that Jiang An went home, or angry...

He simply turned his head away, refusing to look at them.

The dining table was quiet; apart from the clinking of cutlery, there was no other noise.

After lunch, there was a two-hour break. Jiang An accompanied Wen Lingshuang to rest before returning to the company. Fearing that Wen Lingshuang would be bored, he planned to bring Ah Shui over to keep her company.

When Wen Lingshuang heard that Ah Shui was to be brought over, she laughed and said, "Forget it, she'll be scared to death if you bring her over."

Jiang An: "?"

“She thinks the Jiang family is a monster. She was almost scared to death when I arrived. If you take her here, she’ll be scared out of her wits.”

"I have to go to the company this afternoon, and I'm not familiar with the Jiang family. You'll be all alone here..."

Seeing the worry on his face, Wen Lingshuang reached out and smoothed the wrinkles between his brows, saying, "It's alright, I'll wait for you at the Jiang family home. Come back and keep me company soon."

Seeing her insistence, Jiang An sighed slightly and said, "Call me if you need anything, or send me a message."

"Okay."

Wen Lingshuang watched Jiang An leave.

After he left, Wen Lingshuang opened the door and asked the cleaning servants around the room where Jiang Qi's room was located.

The maid pointed to the corner of the corridor.

She walked down the corridor to the corner and saw that the door was not closed. She kicked it open. Jiang Qi was looking at documents and was startled by the loud bang. He wondered who in the entire Jiang family would dare to kick his door? But when he looked up, he saw Wen Lingshuang standing outside the door.

He was so angry that his teeth were grinding as he said, "Wen, Ling, Shuang."

Wen Lingshuang smiled and said, "Second Uncle, hello. I apologize for bothering you, but I have something I'd like to ask you."

I apologize for disturbing you.

She kicked it, saying it was impolite?

Jiang Qi gritted his teeth, "Tell me?"

"Yes, I heard you have a private golf course, it's quite luxurious, why don't you invite me and Jiang An to play?"

Jiang Qi looked at her coldly, "Are you worthy? That golf course is my private property. Even if you beg Dad, it won't work. If I don't want you to go, you have no right to go."

Wen Lingshuang said "Oh" and drew out the tone, "Then I'll have to come uninvited."

She smiled and said, "Jiang An and I will be there on time next Wednesday. I hope Second Uncle is prepared and doesn't embarrass himself too much."

Jiang Qi: "..."

Is she unable to understand human speech?
