The two of them reached the stairs, and Jiang Shuyan and Zhuge Ke came out of the private room. Jiang Shuyan looked up and saw his wife and second sister-in-law preparing to go downstairs with Ouyang Jin.
Jiang Shuyan's heart skipped a beat. Were they leaving after dinner, or did they meet by chance?
Jin Linlin looked at the male and female protagonists with great interest, nodding secretly in her heart. That's right! How can the male and female protagonists always have smooth sailing? A little misunderstanding is the key to a long-lasting relationship.
Ouyang Jin perked up, looking at Jiang Shuyan with a smile, without saying a word. Just looking at him made Jiang Shuyan very anxious.
Coming out of the restaurant, Jiang Shuyan angrily grabbed Cao Jiao's hand and quickly got on the carriage. Looking at the male lead's expression, Jin Linlin laughed so hard her stomach hurt. This show was really good!
In the carriage
Jiang Shuyan looked at Cao Jiao with grievance:
"Jiaojiao, you knew that Ouyang Jin had bad intentions towards you, yet you still wanted to have dinner with him. You're bullying me."
Cao Jiao watched his acting with great interest.
"My wife is cheating on me, why am I so pitiful?"
"No matter what, you are not allowed to meet him in the future."
Cao Jiao crossed her arms and smiled.
"You, you, you did something wrong to me and you're still smiling. I'm so pissed off."
Cao Jiao sat over and kissed his chattering mouth:
"Okay, we just met by chance. My second sister-in-law and I are women. How could we possibly have dinner with a man from another family? It's not decent. Don't be angry." Cao Jiao patiently coaxed her little wolfdog.
Jiang Shuyan snorted proudly: "That's more like it."
It was almost evening when they returned to the mansion! As soon as they got off the carriage, they saw Jiang Zhixu riding back on horseback.
Jiang Zhixu handed the horse to the servant, then ran towards Jin Linlin. Just as he was about to speak to her, the housekeeper Lin from the mansion ran over in a panic. Seeing everyone around, he said:
"Second Master, Third Master, I was just about to send someone to look for you and bring you home, but the eldest young master suddenly vomited blood this afternoon and became critically ill. He has just passed away. The Duke has ordered this servant to look for you and bring you back."
The four of them were all shocked when they heard this. Jiang Shuyan cried out:
"What? How could this happen? Brother, how could this happen?"
Everyone was in disbelief that their elder brother, who was gradually recovering, had passed away so suddenly?
The four of them hurried to the main courtyard, only to see all the servants in the courtyard kneeling on the ground. When they stepped into the house, the lady was gently hugging her eldest grandson, calling out to him, hoping that he would wake up soon, while the Duke of Zhenguo was silently shedding tears beside them.
Jiang Zhixu bowed and asked, "Father, what on earth happened? When I woke up this morning, he said that my eldest brother's condition had greatly improved. How could he suddenly pass away?"
While wiping her tears, Zhuang recounted the story of the miscarriage of the eldest wife's two children that morning. She said, "I had originally planned to talk to the eldest son after his condition improved a little, but unexpectedly, Gu came to the eldest son's place. I don't know what she said.
The eldest brother suddenly vomited blood, and fainted from a surge of blood. The doctor who took his pulse initially said he was fine, but his condition took a turn for the worse in the afternoon, and he eventually died.
Jin Linlin hurriedly looked at the boss, her face turned pale, and her pharmacy didn't have any medicine that could bring the patient back to life.
