Cheng Yanzheng paused for a second, then said, "Then I'll ask her first."

"Come quick, come quick, the brothers are all waiting!"

"Okay, I'll call you back later."

After Cheng Yanzheng hung up the phone, he looked at Jiang Tian.

"Were you your comrades-in-arms during those two years?" Jiang Tian asked.

Cheng Yanzheng nodded: "I'll head over first, you eat first."

"Listen to what you're saying. They already told you to bring your sister-in-law. I'm right here, are you going to pretend you can't see me?"

The volume over there was quite loud, and Jiang Tian was close to Cheng Yanzheng, so she could hear it clearly.

“They might be different from the people you know, and I’m afraid you won’t be able to adapt if you go.”

Jiang Tian raised an eyebrow: "Am I not a human being living on Earth? Although I have indeed lived abroad, I am not completely ignorant of human relationships. Your brothers came to see you late at night because they wanted to see you living a happy life. If you went there by yourself in the middle of the night, what would I, as their wife, be for?"

Cheng Yanzheng fell silent.

Jiang Tian said to him, "Let's go, everyone is waiting for you, don't delay us."

"good."

Cheng Yanzheng finally uttered a single word.

Half an hour later they arrived at a barbecue restaurant.

Cheng Yanzheng's brothers were indeed waiting there.

They had seen Jiang Tian at the wedding, and today, dressed in his everyday clothes, he looked even more stunning.

Jiang Tian has a very special temperament; even if she is not the most beautiful, she is the kind of person who catches your eye at first glance.

"sister in law!"

A group of people shouted loudly and forcefully.

Jiang Tian took Cheng Yanzheng's hand and said to them with a smile, "Hello."

Her voice is also very pleasant.

The group suddenly became a little shy. After sitting down, they nudged each other and didn't say a word.

Cheng Yanzheng looked at the few mischievous kids, then at Jiang Tian's hand clasped with his, and said nothing.

"Since everyone is silent, I'll start by toasting you all to thank you for taking care of Cheng Yanzheng over the years."

The ears of several people immediately turned red.

"Sister-in-law, it's Brother Cheng who's taking care of us."

"Yes, yes, Brother Cheng is so good to us."

Jiang Tian showed an interested expression: "He took care of you, but he didn't tell me. How did he take care of you?"

The topic he brought up was one that everyone already knew.

The group started chatting.

They became more and more excited as they talked, quickly forgetting their initial nervousness and shyness.

After Jiang Tian opened up the conversation with a few words, she maintained the atmosphere until the group started talking about topics that interested them and no longer needed her to be the straight man. At that point, she stopped and listened to their conversation, nodding occasionally.

She was very gentle and approachable. Originally, everyone would feel that she was very distant when they first met her.

After spending some time with her and chatting for an hour, several people expressed their liking for her.

"Brother Cheng is so lucky! Sister-in-law, you're so beautiful and gentle, you're practically the wife of my dreams—"

"You brat, what nonsense are you spouting? You can't control your mouth after a few drinks!"

"Seeing Cheng Ge so happy puts our minds at ease. Sister-in-law, you must treat him well; Cheng Ge is a good man—"

When others confessed their feelings to her, Jiang Tian smiled but remained silent.

When others told her to take good care of Cheng Yanzheng, she replied earnestly, "Don't worry, I will treat him well."

As Cheng Yanzheng listened to their conversation, a surge of warmth welled up in his heart, instantly dispelling the chill that had always plagued him on his birthday.

The group of people clinked glasses and chatted for a very long time.

We drank a lot of alcohol.

Cheng Yanzheng drank the least.

He discovered that Jiang Tian also had a huge capacity for alcohol; when it came to drinking contests, she was never willing to admit defeat.

When he first saw her, he thought she was a lady.

Now that they're spending more time together, he's increasingly realizing that Jiang Tian is a truly contradictory woman.

This contradiction gives her a unique charm.

In this chaotic little barbecue stall, Jiang Tian, ​​dressed in an elegant coat and boots, with her slender and tall figure and beautiful, aloof demeanor, had already attracted the attention of many people.

In other people's eyes, she shouldn't be here.

Her demeanor was completely out of place here.

Yet she blended in very well. In a place full of everyday life, she didn't act superior; instead, she naturally joined in the conversation with them.

Cheng Yanzheng knew who she was doing all this for, and it was precisely because he knew that a certain emotion surged within him.

After a few rounds of drinks, it was time to leave.

Cheng Yanzheng hired a designated driver to take his brothers to the hotel.

He found two vehicles in total, one was a taxi, and the other was a designated driver who drove the car he had brought.

Jiang Tian was in the same car as him. She had also drunk quite a bit, and her face was flushed.

She leaned on his shoulder, and Cheng Yanzheng held her carefully.

After booking rooms for his brothers and seeing them check in, Cheng Yanzheng led Jiang Tian back home.

"I haven't drunk myself into unconsciousness yet."

Jiang Tian's eyes were already showing signs of intoxication, and her fair face was flushed.

"I know you're not drunk, let's go back."

Jiang Tian nodded seriously: "Yes, I'm not drunk."

She looked a little dazed and cute, a stark contrast to her usual rational and calm demeanor.

Cheng Yanzheng found it somewhat amusing.

"Big brother, what are you doing here?"

Just as they were about to head back, they ran into Gao Yaohong and his girlfriend, Jiang Ying, in the hotel lobby.

The two arrived at the hotel late at night. The check-in procedures were already completed, and Jiang Ying had a room key in her hand.

Upon hearing Gao Yaohong's voice, Cheng Yanzheng's smile vanished. He looked at Gao Yaohong without saying a word and led Jiang Tian outside.

Jiang Tian was indeed a little drunk, but she could walk without much trouble; it was just that her reactions were a bit slow.

Jiang Ying looked at Jiang Tian with disdain: "Big sister, this isn't a foreign country. You're drunk in the middle of the night, and you still have to ask your brother-in-law to pick you up from the hotel. Aren't you afraid of being pointed at and gossiped about as someone else's wife?"

Cheng Yanzheng's expression changed instantly.

He looked at Jiang Ying with an unfamiliar gaze.

The Jiang Ying he remembered was not like this.

Jiang Tian held Cheng Yanzheng's hand and spoke relatively fluently: "And what about you? Your dad is so strict with you. Who told you to go out and fool around with boys in the middle of the night? Your dad doesn't care what I am like, but in his heart you've always been a young lady from a wealthy family. If you don't want to play the socialite anymore, then continue. I'm recording this on my phone so that others can see what the eldest daughter of the Jiang family is really like in real life."

Jiang Ying gritted her teeth in anger, her eyes filled with tears: "What are you saying? I just brought Yao Hong over, and in your mouth it's like we did something wrong. We're just a normal boyfriend and girlfriend!"
