Chapter 22 Chapter 22 (Three updates in one) The protagonist appears.
Sheng Jianan put his arms around Jiang Chi's neck, wearing the white shirt he had just taken off. He sat on the sink with his bare legs, with Jiang Chi's bath towel underneath him.
Jiang Chi was bare-chested, his forehead against his, gently stroking Sheng Jianan's face, looking at his squinting eyes and slightly parted red lips, and brushing away the sweat from his hair and forehead.
"Are you feeling unwell?" Jiang Chi asked, "Do you want to go to the hospital?"
Sheng Jianan blinked her eyelashes lightly, a little dazed. After a while, she shook her head and said in a hoarse voice: "It's okay."
Jiang Chi took off his only remaining shirt and gave it to him. He was bare-chested, covered in sweat, and his hormones were overflowing. Sheng Jianan blinked and closed his eyes again.
Jiang Chi looked at him for a moment, then placed a kiss on his forehead, then gently touched the tip of his delicate nose, and said, "Then go to bed. It's late."
Sheng Jianan raised his eyes and nodded obediently.
Jiang Chi carried him down. As soon as Sheng Jianan's toes touched the ground, his legs went limp and he fell straight down. Jiang Chi caught him in time.
Jiang Chi couldn't help laughing, then he picked him up, walked out of the bathroom, and gently put him on the bed.
"Can you climb by yourself?" Jiang Chi asked, with a hint of smile in his voice. One could tell he was up to no good.
"...Okay." Sheng Jianan stretched his legs on the spot, held the bed ladder, and climbed up slowly step by step. Jiang Chi stood behind him and watched, holding his waist with both hands, pushing him up and preventing him from falling due to his weak legs.
When he took the last step, Sheng Jianan raised his knees and tried to climb onto the bed, but accidentally bumped into Jiang Chi behind him. When Jiang Chi raised his eyes, he took in the round and full hip line in front of him.
It disappeared in just a moment.
Sheng Jianan climbed onto the bed.
Jiang Chi stood there for two seconds, then took a light step forward and looked at Sheng Jianan. He did look a little tired and was lying down obediently.
Jiang Chi touched his forehead and found his temperature was normal. He confirmed again: "Are you really not feeling unwell?"
"Yeah." Sheng Jianan nodded, a little embarrassed, "It should be an ordinary... kind of medicine."
Jiang Chi looked at him and smiled: "Not ordinary. My two hands will be almost useless tomorrow."
Sheng Jianan recalled the scene just now in an instant, looked away, and his ears turned slightly red. However, when he glanced down, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of Jiang Chi's waist. A hint of heat suddenly appeared on his face, and he turned his head to the other side.
"Go to bed early and think about the rest after you wake up tomorrow." Jiang Chi leaned over and kissed his forehead, tucked the quilt in for him, and got out of bed.
Then Sheng Jianan heard Jiang Chi walk back into the bathroom and stayed there for a long time, so long that he fell asleep without realizing it and didn't even hear the sound of a shower coming from the bathroom.
It was not until the middle of the night that Sheng Jianan vaguely felt someone climbing onto his bed.
A familiar breath filled the air. Jiang Chi hugged him from behind, kissed the back of his neck gently, put his lips to his ear, lowered his voice, and said in a low and stubborn tone: "You are mine, and only mine."
Sheng Jianan listened in a half-asleep state, hazily recalling the past. Jiang Chi seemed to be the same during high school. He always felt insecure and would confirm this matter in his ear over and over again in the quiet late night.
In fact, Jiang Chi was not homophobic in the past, or he had no idea about gays. It was because of the Shao Bin incident that left him with a huge trauma about homosexuality. To the extent that there was a period of time when he followed Sheng Jianan closely and had to make sure that he was under his nose at all times.
Sheng Jianan's memories gradually became deeper, and he fell asleep in the hot embrace.
-
The next day, Jiang Chi was still worried, so he took Sheng Jianan to the hospital for a full-body check-up.
Fortunately, after a round of examination, there was indeed no problem. The medicine was just an ordinary drug that helps to increase interest, but it only lasts longer, and I need to replenish my body afterwards. The doctor told Sheng Jianan to go back and eat more good food.
Although the doctor spoke very subtly, Sheng Jianan was not a child and naturally understood what he meant. He looked slightly embarrassed and glanced at Jiang Chi quickly.
He saw Jiang Chi staring at him, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Early this morning, the police asked the school to review the surveillance footage from the study room to the artificial lake. They also took away Sheng Jianan's water cup and called in two female witnesses.
After Jiang Chi and Sheng Jianan left the hospital, they went directly to the police station.
Before leaving, Jiang Chi called his grandfather and explained the whole story, which made Grandpa Jiang furious.
After all, he has watched Sheng Jianan grow up since he was a child. Compared with his own grandson, Grandpa Jiang likes Sheng Jianan very much and treats him as his grandson.
As a result, even though such a big thing happened, the two children did not inform their parents immediately. Jiang Chi is so old, but he still does things his own way, which makes Grandpa Jiang so angry that he scolds him.
In the end, this incident alarmed the parents on both sides.
When the parents of both sides arrived at the police station, Sheng Jianan and Jiang Chi were scolded by their parents for the first time, and Sheng's mother even cried on the spot.
Sheng Jianan comforted her for a long time. In fact, he didn't dare to say it because he was afraid of this situation.
After educating them, the matter was handed over to the parents on both sides, and the two children returned to school first.
On the way back in the car, Jiang Chi contacted Ling Mo.
"Hello, Jiang Chi?" Ling Mo asked anxiously, "What's going on?"
Jiang Chi: "Please help me take those students from your basketball team out for a nice meal. You can choose whatever you want to eat. I'll transfer the money to you."
Ling Mo: "Okay."
Jiang Chi: "Help me find another girl to treat the two girls in the study room to a meal, and ask them if they need any help."
"No need to look for girls, I know them." Ling Mo said, and then asked, "How are things going over there?"
"What's going on?" Jiang Chi asked.
Ling Mo was so anxious: "How should we deal with this? He won't be sentenced for long in this case, right? I heard that his father is going to sue you, saying that you beat his son to a disability."
Jiang Chi smiled and said nothing, but his laughter sounded a little gloomy.
Ling Mo paused, and suddenly he felt more confident.
"Did your grandfather agree to help?"
"What else? It's not something I did on my own initiative." Jiang Chi took Sheng Jianan's hand and said without any emotion in his eyes, "He wouldn't want to see his grandson commit crimes for the sake of justice, right?"
He said the craziest things in the calmest tone.
Ling Mo was silent for a moment, then cursed: "... lunatic."
-
After hanging up the phone, Ling Mo told everyone in their basketball team group that Jiang Chi was treating them to dinner. Finally, we gathered everyone's opinions and found the best buffet restaurant in Xia City.
In a high-end buffet restaurant, a group of boys were eating and indignant.
"Damn, that scumbag actually has two previous convictions! I'm so angry. Fortunately, he didn't succeed. Why didn't they catch this kind of person earlier? He really brings shame to us men."
"I heard his family has a bit of money. But if you walk by the river often, you're bound to get your feet wet, right? Look, he'll have to be locked up for a few years at least."
"A few years is too easy for him. People like him will only harm others? Do you expect such a lunatic to reform?"
"It's no use hoping. The key is that the sentence can only be so few years."
After listening quietly for a while, Ling Mo said, "Don't worry, he probably won't be able to get out this time."
Everyone looked at him at once, "What do you mean?"
"He has a criminal record, but he is not a minor." Ling Mo raised his eyelids and looked around the table. "The most important thing is that someone hopes that he will repent in prison for the rest of his life."
Hearing this, the students couldn't help but be stunned. Ling Mo then waved his hand: "Well, eat, eat. Don't worry, Sheng Jianan is the treasure of their two families. If you are angry, their family will definitely be even angrier. This time he will definitely get the punishment he deserves, because he offended someone he shouldn't have offended. When the time comes, when he goes to the place he should go, there will naturally be someone there to take good care of him, and he will be a stinky rat in the gutter for the rest of his life."
Hearing this, several classmates looked at each other in bewilderment. Someone asked curiously, "Is Jiang Chi's family background very powerful?"
Ling Mo hummed softly, not quite answering.
"Damn it, I knew it. Fortunately, I have always been friendly and have never offended Jiang Chi."
"Won't that mean Cen Jin is going to be in trouble?"
"Not really. Is anyone worth making a fuss about? You're overthinking it." Ling Mo said, "As long as he behaves himself and doesn't provoke Sheng Jianan, nothing will happen. Jiang Chi is easier to talk to than you think. He may not take it to heart even if you scold him. You'll know after spending more time with him that he's a very casual person."
"Just remember one thing, don't mess with Sheng Jianan."
-
Jiang Chi doesn't like eating with too many people. When a table of people are eating together, they are bound to talk, laugh, and joke, which is the biggest waste of time. With so much time, he would rather look at Sheng Jianan more and talk to her more.
Because Sheng Jianan didn't have a good appetite today, on the way back to school, the two of them found a light and healthy porridge restaurant.
Jiang Chi had a clear goal. He ordered a bowl of porridge for Sheng Jianan to replenish qi, blood and kidney deficiency, which made the waiter couldn't help but look at them twice.
Sheng Jianan lowered his eyes and felt the social death for the first time.
After ordering the porridge, Jiang Chi habitually took Sheng Jianan's hand that was hanging on his legs and placed it on his own legs. He didn't say anything either, it seemed like a purely subconscious action.
Soon, the porridge was served.
It smelled good. Sheng Jianan scooped it up with a spoon and found that there were a lot of ingredients in it. He scooped up a spoonful, blew on it, and put it into his mouth. It tasted unexpectedly good.
He hadn't eaten much since he got up today, but now his appetite was suddenly opened and he ate half a bowl of food in one go.
When he raised his head, he saw Jiang Chi holding half of his face with one hand, staring at him intently. There was no expression on his face, and no emotion in his eyes, unlike his usual slightly mischievous smile. He just looked at him, quietly looking at him, motionlessly looking at him.
It's like I need to confirm his existence all the time.
Sheng Jianan looked at the porridge in front of him, and after a while, asked, "Why don't you eat it? Is it not tasty?"
Jiang Chi hummed softly.
Sheng Jianan lowered his eyelids, ate two mouthfuls of porridge, thought for a moment, scooped up a spoon and handed it over: "Would you like to try mine?"
Jiang Chi was finally willing to take his eyes away from him, glanced down, looked at the porridge that was delivered to his lips, and lowered his head to take a bite.
It’s really good and smells delicious.
Jiang Chi curled his lips lightly and commented: "Not bad."
"Yeah." Sheng Jianan fed him another mouthful. When Jiang Chi was about to open his mouth, he heard him say, "It's good for your kidneys. Eat more. It's good for your health."
Jiang Chi raised his eyebrows, closed his mouth, and raised his eyelids to look at Sheng Jianan. It was hard to doubt that he didn't do it on purpose.
Sheng Jianan did it on purpose. He wanted to divert some of Jiang Chi's attention. Although his expression looked the same as usual, Sheng Jianan could see that he was in a dull mood. However, he was not usually a person with dull moods.
"Kidney nourishment?" Jiang Chi raised his lips, his tone slightly threatening, "Sheng Nannan, say it again, who wants kidney nourishment?"
"...Don't you want to make up for it?" Sheng Jianan took back the spoon and ate the porridge himself. "You stayed in the bathroom for a long time last night."
After saying that, he lowered his head and drank the porridge.
He had such a good body and didn't take any random medicine, but he was told to replenish his kidneys, and it was Sheng Jianan who said that. Jiang Chi was so angry that he almost laughed, staring at him with burning eyes. I really want to show my strength and prowess in front of Sheng Jianan.
Sheng Jianan drank the porridge for a while, still wondering how Jiang Chi could be so patient and not make any noise, when he heard a very faint laugh. Jiang Chi came closer, grasped his thin waist with his hot hands, and put his lips to his ear: "Then tell me, what did I do in the bathroom last night?"
After he said that, Sheng Jianan suddenly recalled the sweaty scene in the bathroom.
The cramped space and the gradually rising temperature. Jiang Chi was sweating all over, with his eyes downcast and a serious expression.
Sheng Jianan lowered his eyes in a messy manner. From his angle, he could just see the obvious bulge under Jiang Chi's body.
Jiang Chi didn't care, he just smiled against his forehead and said, "Sheng Jianan, my hands are so sore, both of them are going to be useless."
"What are you thinking about?" Jiang Chi's voice interrupted his recollection, and he deliberately whispered softly in his ear, "You are not thinking about what I secretly did in the bathroom last night, are you?"
He deliberately made his words obscene and disgusting.
Sheng Jianan paused slightly.
Perhaps what happened last night opened up Jiang Chi's Ren and Du meridians. He suddenly found that Jiang Chi seemed a little shameless and didn't seem to care so much about things between boys.
After all, this kind of behavior was disgusting to him before, but now people can even play dirty jokes on him.
Sheng Jianan turned his head and met Jiang Chi's gaze, and asked knowingly: "What were you doing in the bathroom last night?"
Jiang Chi was silent, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Don't you know best what I'm doing in the bathroom?"
Before, Jiang Chi would never have been willing to play such a joke on Sheng Jianan. Although he also had some necessary needs to be met when taking a bath, he never discussed them with Sheng Jianan.
Because in his heart, Sheng Jianan is pure white, the supreme purity, and an existence that absolutely does not allow any fantasy. Perhaps Shao Bin's shadow was too deep, he would never allow anyone to tarnish Sheng Jianan in any form, including himself.
But just last night, he personally added a touch of color to this purest little white flower of his. Crimson, moist, gorgeous, breathtaking color.
Only then did he realize that love could be so beautiful and pure, completely different from the filth he had imagined.
So much so that Jiang Chi suddenly changed his long-held idea. Not all desires are dirty, many people can be pure and beautiful.
"How would I know?" Sheng Jianan turned his eyes away, his ears slightly red.
He knew that he couldn't be more shameless than Jiang Chi, because Jiang Chi could definitely be more shameless than him.
Seeing the cute little blood beads on the tip of his ear, Jiang Chi couldn't bear to bully him anymore. He raised his hand and gently pinched the tip of his ear: "Sheng Nannan, my hands can't hold a basketball anymore. How are you going to compensate me?"
Sheng Jianan: “…”
It seemed that after being impure once, his mind could no longer be pure. He could quickly understand whatever Jiang Chi said and immediately thought of that picture.
Jiang Chi looked at him, smiled, and decided to restrain himself a little and not bully others too much all of a sudden.
They sat in a private room of the health porridge restaurant and the meal took a long time, so long that Ling Mo still had time to come over for a walk after he finished eating.
Originally Ling Mo wanted to comfort his two good friends, but as soon as he entered the door he saw Jiang Chi and Sheng Jianan, both of them had calm expressions, talking and laughing. He watched for a while and tactfully did not mention the pervert.
After Ling Mo sat down, the three of them chatted casually for a while, and Sheng Jianan's phone rang. Jiang Chi's eyes subconsciously dropped.
Ling Mo on the opposite side couldn't help but curl his lips when he saw this. The possessiveness was terrible enough, and he had to go through another perversion. This was unbearable. Is this an attempt to kill Jiang Chi or Sheng Jianan?
Sheng Jianan picked up the phone and saw a WeChat message from senior Gu Panyu.
He clicked it to see.
[Gu Panyu: Junior, I heard about what happened last night? Are you okay? 】
[Gu Panyu: How come there are still perverts like this in our school? It's so disgusting]
Sheng Jianan finished reading silently and was about to type when he suddenly paused and glanced sideways. Jiang Chi was looking at him openly, with no intention of hiding anything, and he acted as if it was a matter of course.
Noticing his gaze, Jiang Chi raised his eyelids and glanced at him: "Why are you looking at me? Go back."
It is indeed very justified. Sheng Jianan continued typing——
[Sheng Jianan: It’s okay, senior sister, how did you know about this? 】
[Gu Panyu: The school's love confession wall has been exposed]
[Gu Panyu: It was this pervert who spread rumors that you were Jiang Chi’s child bride, and even cursed Jiang Chi on social media]
[Gu Panyu: It is said that he has been working in a small bar near our school for the past two months. Many students have seen him.]
[Gu Panyu: Someone sorted all of these out and posted his photo here as well]
[Gu Panyu: The surveillance footage of the study room and the artificial lake are all posted online]
[Gu Panyu: Alas [sigh] Fortunately, nothing happened. Curse this bastard to death!] 】
[Gu Panyu: By the way, junior, can you still go sketching tomorrow? 】
Sheng Jianan thought about it, but before he could type, he heard an incomprehensible snort from the side.
Perhaps because she saw that he was slow to reply, Gu Panyu sent another message first.
[Gu Panyu: It’s okay. If you don’t want to go, we already have someone to fill the position.]
[Gu Panyu: The most important thing for you these two days is to have a good rest and adjust your mood]
[Gu Panyu: There are many opportunities for sketching. I will call you next time]
[Sheng Jianan: Okay, I’ll trouble you, senior.]
[Gu Panyu: It’s okay, it’s okay]
"Oh." Jiang Chi laughed, "Not going?"
A weird emphasis.
Sheng Jianan turned to look at him when he heard that, and the two looked at each other quietly for a moment.
After a while, Jiang Chi said calmly, "Don't you want to go sketching with your senior?"
"...I didn't really want to go sketching with my senior." Sheng Jianan said, "It just happened to be a chance to go for a walk."
After a moment of silence, Jiang Chi said "Oh" in a long tone, and nodded with a smile: "I just want to go for a walk, and then you won't go every time I ask you to."
Sheng Jianan: “…”
Jiang Chi: "I understand."
Ling Mo, who was sitting opposite and playing with his phone, listened for a while, then raised his eyes and looked back and forth between the two of them.
Why does he feel weird? Ling Mo looked at Jiang Chi suspiciously. What kind of sour taste could be so strong?
In fact, Ling Mo had doubted whether Jiang Chi liked Sheng Jianan before, but such speculations were diluted by time several times. After being together for a long time, he got used to their relationship which was not like a couple but better than a couple.
When other classmates questioned their relationship, Ling Mo firmly explained that they were really just good brothers and good friends who couldn't be better.
After all, no one can see it more clearly than him. They have been as close as ever for more than ten years. If they were really that kind of person, wouldn't they have naturally become a couple long ago?
But they didn't.
But now, speculations that had not occurred for a long time once again surfaced in Ling Mo's mind. He looked at the two boys opposite him, and saw Jiang Chi holding Sheng Jianan's hand: "Accompany me to the bathroom."
"...Can't you go by yourself?" Sheng Jianan said.
"Yeah, if you want to go, just go by yourself. The toilet is just opposite." Ling Mo pointed outside, "What are you worried about? If a bad guy comes and I can't beat him, can I not shout?"
As for Ling Mo, Jiang Chi did not need to question him about safety, except that he did not know what was going on in his mind all day long.
Jiang Chi paused for a moment and gently touched Sheng Jianan's hair: "I'm going to the bathroom."
Sheng Jianan: “Yeah.”
Ling Mo turned around and stared at Jiang Chi as he walked out of the private room, then looked at Sheng Jianan across from him: "Nannan, did you notice that Jiang Chi is a little weird?"
Sheng Jianan paused and raised his head: "What's strange about that?"
"Don't you think his tone just now was very sour? Not the kind of sourness that's because he's worried that you're going to be with someone else. No, it's that kind of sourness..." Ling Mo frowned and pondered for a moment, "It's the kind of sourness that's like jealousy between opposite-sex couples."
After a slight pause, Ling Mo asked: "Nannan, have you ever thought that Jiang Chi likes you?"
If Sheng Jianan hadn't come from a book, he would have had the same idea as Ling Mo.
It’s just a pity…
Sheng Jianan lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then picked up the meat in the soup dumpling and ate it, and said slowly: "Hasn't he always been like this? When I was a kid, he would scare girls to tears whenever I said a few words to them. He shouldn't be jealous at such a young age, right?"
Ling Mo thought about it and said, "That's right."
Although it is unreasonable to say that Jiang Chi's behavior is not jealous, he has indeed been like this since he was five or six years old. He never allows others to get close to Sheng Jianan and is always jealous in secret. It seems unrealistic to think that such a young child would eat this kind of vinegar.
I don’t understand. I don’t understand. Ling Mo shook his head with a headache. Normal humans could not understand a creature like Jiang Chi. He really wanted to suggest that Jiang Chi donate his brain to the country for research when he gets old. Maybe it can make some contribution to mankind.
-
In the week that followed, Jiang Chi took Sheng Jianan to recuperate every day. Time slipped through his fingers and before he knew it, it was the end of October.
This Saturday, Sheng Jianan had promised to go home with Jiang Chi for dinner, so the two packed their luggage and prepared to go home on Friday night.
The weather was getting colder and colder. Sheng Jianan had a cold constitution, so while other male classmates were still wearing thin coats, he had already been wrapped by Jiang Chi in a cream-white puffer jacket with a slightly puffy hem. His waist was plump, like a little penguin.
These milky white furry coats and plump puffer jackets are all in line with Jiang's mother's aesthetic. She had always wanted to have a girl, and she would buy clothes for the little girl and dress her up beautifully every day.
Unfortunately, Jiang Chi was born later. But Mother Jiang changed her mind and felt that it was not a big deal, as the little boy could also buy a lot of cute clothes. So Mother Jiang often takes her two children to the mall to shop and buys them cute little clothes of the same style.
In the past, little Jiang Chi was always a cool boy in front of everyone except little Sheng Jianan, and he was unwilling to wear such cute little clothes. Mother Jiang had no choice but to let little Jianan wear them.
However, when Jiang's mother wanted to change little Jianan's clothes, little Jiang Chi sternly refused. When Jiang's mother asked why, little Jiang Chi said that little Jianan was his and only he could change his clothes. Mother Jiang twitched her lips speechlessly as she watched the two children struggling to put on a small cotton coat.
Fortunately, little Sheng Jianan, who was already cute when he was a child, became even cuter when he put on these chubby little jackets. He blinked his watery eyes at people, which was simply adorable.
The first one made little Jiang Chi dizzy with cuteness. The little head was dizzy and I was thinking, how could there be such a cute child in this world?
Then he thought again and felt happy again, because such a cute child belonged to him alone.
In the end, Xiao Jiangchi was willing to wear these clothes reluctantly in order to match with Xiao Jianan. At that time, the two super cute kids wore the same clothes and walked hand in hand in the mall and on the street, always attracting a lot of attention. Almost everyone praises her, flowers bloom wherever she goes, and cars are loaded with them wherever she goes, which greatly satisfies Jiang's mother's self-esteem.
Later, as he grew older, Jiang Chi refused to wear such fluffy and plump clothes, no matter how many times his mother bought them for him.
But Sheng Jianan didn't mind. He thought these clothes were warm and good-looking, and it would be a waste not to wear them. Jiang Chi was very happy. He liked looking at the chubby Sheng Jianan the most.
-
When they arrived at the door of the house, Jiang Chi did not follow Sheng Jianan home directly this time. Instead, he grabbed him at the door and pulled the chubby boy into his arms.
Sheng Jianan struggled weakly and said, "Don't do this. It doesn't look good in front of our house."
Jiang Chi smiled, half-closed his eyes and looked at Sheng Jianan's eyebrows and eyes close to him: "What's wrong with that? Who doesn't know that we do this every day now?"
"...Okay, you are going home, so go back and have dinner first." Sheng Jianan said.
"Are you in such a hurry to get me out?" Jiang Chi lowered his voice and moved his face closer, "How much do you not want to see me?"
Sheng Jianan raised his eyes and glanced at him without saying anything.
Jiang Chi looked at him for a while, curled his lips slightly, and said in a frivolous tone: "Give me a kiss."
Sheng Jianan paused, looked up at him inquiringly, and saw Jiang Chi lowering his head.
Sheng Jianan's heart suddenly beat violently twice, and then he felt Jiang Chi suck on his face with a "pop" sound.
Sheng Jianan: “…”
I knew I couldn't have too much hope in him.
"...You didn't leave any marks, did you?" Sheng Jianan asked.
"No." Jiang Chi said, "I just pecked it, how could it leave any marks?"
In order to avoid being heard by their parents, they deliberately lowered their voices.
Sheng Jianan wiped his face: "I have fair skin."
Jiang Chile smiled: "I know you are white, you are the whitest, every inch of your body is white."
As Jiang Chi spoke, his voice inexplicably lowered, the ending tone became a little deep, and he looked at Sheng Jianan with burning eyes.
For a moment, Sheng Jianan felt that his train of thought resonated with Jiang Chi, and they actually had the same unhealthy thoughts.
After thinking about it, Sheng Jianan turned around and opened the door without saying a word, while Jiang Chi laughed behind him.
Hearing the noise, Mr. Sheng rushed to open the door and saw two children returning home from school.
"Are you back?" Sheng's father asked with a smile.
Sheng Jianan nodded and called out "Dad".
Jiang Chi called him uncle happily, watched Sheng Jianan go into the house, rejected Sheng's father's suggestion to have dinner together, and went back to his own home.
Seeing him come in, Jiang's mother couldn't help but tease him, "Why didn't you go to your mother-in-law's house today?"
"I miss you." Jiang Chi said insincerely, "Where's Dad?"
"Here I am." Father Jiang came out of the study room holding a tablet. "Don't worry, everything has been arranged. He will definitely not have a chance to come out again in this lifetime. As for how long he can live, the people in there are not easy to deal with. With someone like him who has weak arms and legs, it all depends on his luck."
Seeing his son's cold face, as if he felt that this was not enough, Jiang's father's face couldn't help but become more serious: "Jiang Chi, you are so young, don't think too much about things that are not yours to consider. Do you know how hard you hit in the fight? You almost beat someone to death, and now you are still lying in the hospital. If you were not my son, I wonder what you would do now."
Jiang Chi: "Is this your son? I will beat this scumbag too. Beating him to death will be justice for the heavens."
"You." Father Jiang paused. Although he was so angry that he wanted to curse, he had to admit that Jiang Chi was right this time. Anyone who encounters that kind of pervert would not be able to endure it.
Not to mention his son Sheng Jianan, who is more important to him than anything else.
"Okay, stop talking." Mother Jiang brought a plate of grapes over and warned Jiang Chi, "At dinner tomorrow, your grandfather will definitely scold you when he sees you, so don't talk back to him."
"I didn't talk back." Jiang Chi leaned on the sofa, his eyes drooping, not knowing where he was looking, but his voice slowed down a bit, "I'm telling the truth. Anyone who wants to put up with this tone can do so, but I can't."
Mother Jiang knew her son's temper well and was too lazy to talk to him. After all, most of what Jiang Chi did was right. Although his fists were hard and fierce, they were all used to protect Sheng Jianan, and he never actively attacked anyone else.
-
On Saturday evening, at the reminder of Jiang's mother, Jiang Chi and Sheng Jianan changed into suits in the room.
Sheng Jianan watched Jiang Chi buttoning his suit and asked casually, "What party is today?"
"A grandfather's 60th birthday." Jiang Chi said.
So many things have happened recently that he can't remember clearly. All I know is that he will inevitably be scolded by his grandfather if he goes there today.
Sheng Jianan said "oh". Mother Jiang often took them to dinner parties in the past. Sheng Jianan was not surprised at all and just thought of it as a chance to have a meal and see the world.
After buttoning up his shirt, Jiang Chi carefully selected a rose corsage for Sheng Jianan to put on. Then he looked at his handsome little friend and chose a dark blue brooch for himself to match.
"You are cute, handsome, and pretty." Jiang Chi looked at Sheng Jianan and said with a smile, teasing him, "Tell me, are you a little deity who came down to earth just for me? You are so charming."
Sheng Jianan looked up at Jiang Chi and suddenly realized that she really seemed to have come here for him. He didn't belong to this world in the first place. After coming to this world, the only person he had an indelible connection with was him.
Jiang Chi held his hand and said, "Let's go. Today, our little friend Sheng Jianan's beauty is going to go out and slay everyone again."
Sheng Jianan looked at the flamboyant smile on his lips and couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips as well, and was led out the door by Jiang Chi.
If only time could stop, if it stopped at this moment, the protagonist would never appear.
-
The Jiang family's car stopped in front of a private villa.
Jiang Chi got out of the car first, opened the door for Sheng Jianan, hooked his lips at him, raised his eyebrows, and made a very gentlemanly invitation gesture.
In such a formal occasion, Sheng Jianan didn't want to hold his hand, so she simply walked around him and followed behind Jiang's father and mother. Jiang Chi refused and took a step forward, blocking him directly in front of him, as if he would not let him go unless he held his hand.
"Jiang Chi." Sheng Jianan called him and said, "This is a formal occasion. We are no longer at the age where we can just hold hands and walk around casually."
"What's the big deal?" Jiang Chi said nonchalantly, "Everyone knows that we are brothers. What's wrong with an elder brother holding his younger brother's hand?"
At this time, Jiang's mother, who was walking in front, heard the noise of the two children. She turned back and warned Jiang Chi in a low voice, "Jiang Chi, stop making trouble. Today, everyone here is an elder. Remember to say hello to the elders later. Be polite."
Jiang Chi shrugged unconvincedly and stood next to Sheng Jianan. Two young boys entered the venue with their parents. After walking through the busy gate and passing a central garden, Sheng Jianan looked up and saw a figure flash by on the roof of the villa opposite.
It was backlit there and difficult to see clearly, so Sheng Jianan didn't think much about it. He withdrew his gaze and followed Jiang's father and mother into the banquet hall of the villa.
And Young Master Jiang beside him had been muttering all the way, saying that he was a heartless man.
The reason why he was so long-winded was simply because Sheng Jianan had just refused his hand holding.
Sheng Jianan: “…”
-
Walking into the hall, Sheng Jianan immediately saw an old man surrounded by people in the middle. He had gray hair, was wearing a military uniform, and looked energetic.
This is probably the old man who is celebrating his sixtieth birthday.
"Mr. Mi." Someone called out from behind.
Sheng Jianan was stunned, and his head suddenly buzzed.
Mi surname...
The protagonist's last name...
Sheng Jianan swallowed involuntarily and saw the old man walk up to Jiang's father and mother, patted Jiang's father on the shoulder happily and exchanged a few words with them. Then he turned his gaze to him and Jiang Chi, praised them and said, "I also have a grandson. He is upstairs now. I will introduce him to you two when he comes down. I think you three can get along well."
Mother Jiang echoed politely.
At this time, a waiter came over and told Jiang Chi to go to the back garden, saying that Grandpa Jiang was waiting for him there.
Jiang Chi was just about to take Sheng Jianan with him, but Jiang Ma glared at him and whispered to him, "Go by yourself if you want to be scolded, don't take Nan Nan with you."
Jiang Chi thought about it and agreed. This matter was also related to Sheng Jianan. If he went there, he would probably have to attend the lecture together, which he couldn't bear to do.
Jiang Chi thought for a while and pinched Sheng Jianan's fingers: "Then follow my mother, don't run around, wait for me to come back."
Sheng Jianan glanced at him, and after a moment, nodded.
Jiang Chi looked at him for a while, pinched his face, then strode out of the hall and went to be scolded gloriously.
Sheng Jianan looked at his back, and suddenly it seemed as if his back overlapped with the back of him leaving the little cannon fodder in the book, and his eyes became wet in an instant.
Ever since the incident with Shao Bin, he has been avoiding and numbing himself. As long as the protagonist does not appear, he can continue to stay with Jiang Chi. As long as the protagonist doesn't show up, he doesn't have to leave.
But now...
"Grandpa." A crisp voice came.
Sheng Jianan looked up at the sound and saw a young boy walking down the stairs. His eyes went straight through the crowd and landed steadily on him.

Sorry, sorry, I saw everyone was saying that I didn't update on time. Woohoo, next time I will try to be on time. Mainly because I have obsessive compulsive disorder and I like to constantly tinker with words and sentences, hoping to make them more fluent~
