Chapter 216 Didn't you always hate him? [20]
However, after so many years, Jiang Mingxuan had gotten used to Lin Fengyue's attitude towards him.
At least, it won't be as uncomfortable as it was at the beginning.
The car stopped in the garage of the Jiang family villa. A Chu and Lin Fengyue got out first, followed by Jiang Qi and Jiang Mingxuan.
After getting off the bus, Lin Fengyue went to A Chu's room first, saying that she had brought her many gifts.
Jiang Qi and Jiang Mingxuan were abandoned by the mother and daughter.
Without Achu and Lin Fengyue around, the surroundings immediately became quiet.
The atmosphere was a little awkward.
Of course, this is Jiang Mingxuan's opinion only.
Jiang Qi felt nothing.
Seeing that Achu had already left, he also planned to go back to his room.
Before Jiang Qi could even take a step, Jiang Mingxuan spoke up, asking rather dryly, "How are your studies going?"
Jiang Mingxuan wasn't suddenly concerned about his son, but he felt he should say something.
Hearing his question, Jiang Qi had no choice but to slightly retract his steps.
He replied in a flat tone, "It's alright."
What does "it's alright" mean?
Jiang Mingxuan thought Jiang Qi's grades were just average.
Then he asked, "Which university abroad do you want to go to? It's okay if you haven't decided yet. Tell me when you have, and I'll make arrangements for you."
Jiang Mingxuan's idea was to send Jiang Qi abroad, and in addition to tuition and living expenses, give him a sum of money.
He was already an adult at that time and no longer needed a guardian.
Jiang Qi immediately understood Jiang Mingxuan's meaning.
If he were still alive, if Jiang Chaochao were still Jiang Chaochao, he would definitely thank Jiang Mingxuan and then leave with the money.
But there are no "ifs".
Therefore, Jiang Qi refused Jiang Mingxuan: "I will not study abroad. I will go to whichever school my sister goes to."
Jiang Mingxuan's face showed a look of surprise and confusion.
When did these two siblings become so close?
Jiang Mingxuan opened his mouth, about to ask a question, but Jiang Qi no longer wanted to talk to him.
So he left with the words, "I'm going back to my room now."
Without waiting for Jiang Mingxuan's response, he left directly.
By the time Jiang Mingxuan realized what was happening, Jiang Qiren had already vanished.
"This kid... walks pretty fast."
Jiang Mingxuan muttered something to himself.
However, he was still very curious about the current situation of the siblings.
Therefore, Jiang Mingxuan summoned the housekeeper to his study and asked him about the situation at home during the month or so that he had been away.
The butler gave a brief and concise report.
Jiang Mingxuan: "So, Chaochao stopped bullying Jiang Qi and even fired a naughty maid to stand up for Jiang Qi? That's why Jiang Qi started calling her 'sister' and their relationship improved?"
The butler nodded: "Yes, sir, the young lady and young master Jiang Qi are getting along quite well now."
"Oh, by the way, Young Master Jiang Qi is also tutoring the young lady!"
Jiang Mingxuan raised an eyebrow: "Jiang Qi tutors Chaochao? How are Jiang Qi's grades?"
The butler replied, "As far as I know, Young Master Jiang Qi has consistently ranked among the top three in the entire grade."
Jiang Mingxuan recalled when he asked Jiang Qi about his grades, and Jiang Qi replied that they were alright.
Okay, okay! This kid is quite modest!
In Achu's room, Lin Fengyue was also asking her daughter questions.
"Why did you come to the airport with Jiang Qi today? Didn't you always dislike him?"
Ah Chu is looking at the gifts Lin Fengyue brought back; they come from various countries.
Hearing Lin Fengyue's question, she looked up while holding a crystal ball and replied, "I don't hate him anymore!"
"Mom, actually, he's the most innocent one."
“I’ve been bullying him all these years, and thinking about it, I’m pretty bad.”
Lin Fengyue put her arm around Achu and said in a gentle and loving tone, "Jiang Qi is indeed very innocent."
"But whatever my Chaochao does is right!"
Achu looked up at Lin Fengyue and asked her cautiously, "What if one day, Mom, I do something wrong?"
Lin Fengyue wanted to say that no matter what mistakes she made, it didn't matter.
But she also felt that this way of educating children didn't seem quite right.
Then he changed his mind and said, "That depends on what kind of wrongdoing it is."
"If it's unimportant to Mom, then it's okay."
"So, Chaochao, what wrong did you do?"
Achu's eyes darted around guiltily, and she stammered before finally saying, "I...I don't want to practice piano anymore..."
Lin Fengyue was stunned for a moment before she burst out laughing.
"So that's what it is? If you don't want to learn, then don't! We're not having you learn piano so you can become a pianist."
Achu looked at Lin Fengyue and smiled too.
The mother and daughter were getting along very well.
Because they hadn't seen each other for so long, Lin Fengyue slept in A Chu's room that night.
In the middle of the night, Jiang got up and went to Achu's room, where he saw the mother and daughter sleeping together.
I felt a little envious and a little resentful.
Of course, he wasn't targeting A Chu, but Lin Fengyue.
He envied Lin Fengyue for being able to sleep with Achu, being so close to her.
He wanted to as well.
Ghosts don't need to sleep.
Every night, Jiang Qi spends his time either catching and eating ghosts to fill his stomach or watching A Chu sleep in her room.
He didn't know why he was staring at Ah Chu while she was sleeping, but he just wanted to.
And if you keep staring at it, the whole night will pass by.
Ah Chu was already used to being watched by a vengeful ghost while she slept, so she was completely unaware and slept soundly.
Of course, there is another reason: Achu has a cheat that makes him immune to yin energy.
In fact, ordinary people will become deficient in yin energy if they spend too much time in contact with ghosts and monsters.
Of course, if you bask in the sun regularly, that bit of yin energy will disappear.
However, it's not good if it's too close or for too long.
Achu couldn't avoid having a lot of contact with Jiang Qi, which is why the system gave her this cheat.
A Chu reacted, but Lin Fengyue couldn't possibly remain unresponsive.
Jiang Qi stayed in A Chu's room for several hours, and Lin Fengyue started having nightmares.
At first, everything was normal. She dreamt that she was traveling in a certain country, and then suddenly everyone in that country turned into zombies and started chasing and biting her...
When Lin Fengyue woke up, she felt uncomfortable all over, as if she had run a marathon.
Seeing her frown, Achu asked, "What's wrong, Mom? Didn't you sleep well last night?"
Lin Fengyue rubbed her stiff neck and hummed in agreement: "I had nightmares all night."
She was puzzled: "It's so strange, I haven't had any dreams in a long time, let alone nightmares."
Ah Chu, however, knew the reason.
Jiang Qi must have come again last night.
But she couldn't tell Lin Fengyue, so she only said, "You're probably too tired. I'll have a masseur come over later to give you a massage to help you relax."
Lin Fengyue nodded.
Today is Grandpa Jiang's birthday banquet, we're going to be busy.
First, A Chu and Lin Fengyue need to have their skin, hair, and nails treated, and then they need to get their makeup and hair styled.
As the hosts, they would certainly arrive at the Jiang family's old residence earlier than the guests.
Just as Achu and Lin Fengyue finished breakfast, the nurse they had arranged arrived at their door.
The mother and daughter got busy.
