Xu Wanying showed a look of disgust, but the more she didn't want to listen, the more the system wanted to talk.
[Host, are you really not going to listen? Jiang Chengxiao has done a lot of interesting things for Xing Xiaoya.] The system lowered its voice, and even though it was still an electronic voice, it carried a meaningful tone.
It was obvious that it was doing everything it could to pique Xu Wanying's curiosity.
Xu Wanying was silent for a moment before saying, "What kind of funny story is it? I don't want to hear that kind of cloying stuff."
[Don't worry, I guarantee you'll be satisfied. Jiang Chengxiao was originally a playboy, a womanizer who was very good at charming other women, but after meeting Xiaoya, he ran into obstacles everywhere. He once had a farm converted from growing grain to growing flowers, and even hired a large number of gardeners to cultivate them. When spring came, the entire farm was surrounded by a sea of flowers.]
He took Xing Xiaoya directly to see it, and even prepared some very touching sweet words, calling her a flower fairy. Unfortunately, before he could finish his sweet talk, a mischievous child from the village used a slingshot to knock down a beehive from a tree. Instantly, the bees swarmed around them, stinging them. Jiang Chengxiao, in his efforts to protect Xiaoya, ended up with his head covered in stings, swollen like a pig's head.
When the system started talking about Jiang Chengxiao's embarrassing moments, it talked nonstop and couldn't stop.
Xu Wanying listened with great interest, bursting into laughter from time to time.
Xu Wanying couldn't help but exclaim: "Tsk tsk, who would have thought? Jiang Lao Er, who seems to be a womanizer, actually has this side to him!"
[Not only that, after Jiang Chengxiao and Xiaoya got together, there were countless embarrassing incidents like this, and he became famous throughout Wangjing. Originally, everyone's impression of Jiang Lao Er was that of a spoiled brat from the Marquis's mansion, but after the jokes spread, he became known as the second fool of the Loyal Marquis's mansion. Hahaha—] Seeing her high spirits, the system couldn't help but laugh out loud, sounding somewhat smug.
The electronic laughter was strange and grating, showing how smug the system was. However, after it laughed for a while, the other side remained as quiet as a chicken, not echoing it at all. When it also stopped laughing, the atmosphere suddenly fell into an eerie silence.
[Host, why aren't you laughing? Is it not funny?]
[I can't laugh. Jiang Chengxiao is clearly a charming and capable man, but in front of Xing Xiaoya, he becomes a clumsy and clueless fool. Tsk tsk.] Xu Wanying clicked her tongue.
【Yeah, that's exactly what makes it so appealing! Lots of people are raving about it! They say they're a perfect couple!】 The system didn't understand what she was looking for, and it was still trying to explain.
After hearing all these embarrassing stories, the rest of the Jiang family turned their gazes toward Jiang Chengxiao, making his face burn with embarrassment.
He was usually very thick-skinned and had done a lot of bad things since he was a child. He had been beaten by his own father countless times and had spent several years in the officialdom. He had long since developed a heart of steel and thought that nothing could shame him. However, this so-called magical artifact always made him lose face.
"Second brother, you're still too young. You can't resist temptation. You'd better control yourself in the future." Marquis Zhongyi couldn't resist making a few teasing remarks, his face full of schadenfreude.
"Father, I don't agree with what you're saying. It's all a frame-up. I didn't go to see Xing Xiaoya last night, and my brother didn't catch her in the act. Anyway, I don't admit it. You can't pin something on me that didn't happen," Jiang Chengxiao immediately retorted.
Although he was talking about sneaking out last night, he was actually explaining the embarrassing things the system was making fun of him. He said that things like planting flowers on a farm and flower fairies descending to earth didn't exist and would never happen.
"Ha, this is the kind of despicable thing you would do." Marquis Zhongyi sneered.
Xu Wanying was arguing with the system and didn't pay attention to anything else.
[Host, do you still want to hear more? There's something even more outrageous than being chased by bees!] In order to absorb energy, the system has become a salesman, and its attitude is getting more and more skillful.
"I don't want to. This kind of cliché plot is interesting in novels, unique to you, but now they're all people around me. How can I look at them the same way? I can barely accept Jiang Lao Er's naivety, but will Zhongyi Hou be like this in the future?" Xu Wanying rejected him directly, her tone somewhat cold.
[Huh?] For a moment, the system didn't quite react.
[Since he likes to do things differently, Marquis Zhongyi is even more of a womanizer than Jiang Lao Er, and has never been without women all these years. If he becomes restrained and nervous around Xing Xiaoya, that would truly be a case of a rare tree blooming. Would that make him more appealing to others?]
Xu Wanying immediately began to explain, but before she could finish speaking, she started to retch.
【No way, no way, an older man and a younger woman pairing is just not going to work. What's the point of it being romantic? Will the book make the old man go down that route too?】
The more she thought about it, the more upset she became. She tried her best to hold it in, afraid that if she vomited in front of everyone, she wouldn't be able to explain it.
"yue——"
Suddenly, a dry heaving sound came from behind. Xu Wanying froze, thinking that she had just lost control. But when she looked up, she saw Lu Ling covering her mouth with a handkerchief.
"Hmm—" Soon, Jiang Jinyu, who was next to him, also joined in.
Since two people had already started gagging, Xu Wanying no longer needed to restrain herself and joined the gagging army.
The atmosphere at the table was unbearable. Li Chunlan moved her lips, seemingly wanting to gag a couple of times. Seeing this, Jiang Chengzong immediately grabbed her hand and pinched her thumb and forefinger, making her wince in pain and swallow back the urge to gag.
"What's wrong with you all? Why are you vomiting here first thing in the morning!" Marquis Zhongyi was so angry that his face turned ashen, and he couldn't help but question him.
He never expected that this matter would eventually involve him. They were clearly making fun of the second brother, so why are the three younger generation members now vomiting at him?
The second brother turned into a clueless fool when he was with Xing Xiaoya, at most he would be ridiculed a little, but how come when it was him, he vomited? Is it that disgusting?
"Father, I'm sorry, the fermented soybeans were a bit too strong today, I couldn't resist." Lu Ling coughed twice, finally calming down, and immediately made an excuse.
Jiang Jinyu and Xu Wanying nodded in unison: "Second sister-in-law is right, quickly take this dish of fermented soybeans away."
"You weren't even eating yet, and you were already bothered by the smell?" Marquis Zhongyi asked with a cold laugh.
He really wanted to make things clear and get an explanation from the three of them, but even though he was almost spitting blood from holding it in, he could only swallow it all back.
“It really smells, Dad. I’m not feeling too well either,” Jiang Laosi chimed in, trying to smooth things over.
He was switched at birth and was always called Wei Sheng. Now that he has been recognized, he has changed his surname to Jiang. However, he doesn't want to use the name "Jiang Chengyi", so he simply changed it to Jiang Chengyi.
Marquis Zhongyi was so angry that he started to breathe heavily, but he couldn't say anything more.
Xu Wanying, unaware of the situation, was still internally complaining to the system.
[Ugh, the old man and Xing Xiaoya's second spring together is like this dish of fermented soybeans—it can't be savored; just smelling it makes you want to vomit.]
