Lin Yitang said earnestly, "I'm telling you, this is called self-preservation. Do you understand?"
Wen Hangxing: “…”
Jiang Sui smiled, "Aunt Lin, please stop teasing Hangxing. You two are victims tonight, and I believe Uncle Wen won't be too harsh on you."
Wen Hangxing glanced at him sideways, "If he really blames us, will you go to him and plead for us?"
Jiang Sui was silent for a moment, a faint smile on his face, "I think you should be able to handle it on your own. I'm not particularly useful in front of him."
Yan Junqi laughed and then mocked, "You're really awesome. This is just a face-saving project. You're just giving it lip service, right?"
Jiang Sui waved his hand, "No, no. I mean it sincerely."
Yan Junqi hooked his neck and said, "I think if you haven't already embarked on the path of business, you can also try your hand at politics. After all, your level of tact is quite suitable for it."
Jiang Sui bowed slightly to him, "You are too kind."
Yan Junqi was about to die of laughter, and he tightened his wrist, "That's enough."
After the two interrupted them, Lin Yitong and Wen Hangxing put aside their worries. Things would work out in the end, so they just had fun first and talked about it later.
So Lin Yitang had a great time that night. He played cards with Wen Hangxing and the other two, learned how to mix drinks, and then went to the fourth floor to play golf:╰(*°▽°*)╯
Yan Junqi finally caught up with Lin Yitang, who was already having a blast, and asked, "How do you feel tonight, Aunt Lin?"
Lin Yitang raised his thumbs and said, "Great!"
Wen Hangxing couldn't stand it any longer. "Ms. Lin, you are a 28-year-old adult after all. You should be more reserved."
Lin Yitong just glanced at him and ran away excitedly following Yan Junqi.
Wen Hangxing's face darkened.
Jiang Sui wanted to laugh when he saw this, but he suppressed the smile in his throat and said soothingly: "Forget it, Aunt Lin has a bit of a childish personality sometimes, just let her have some fun, with Jun Qi watching over her, nothing will happen."
Wen Hangxing's face looked much better now, and he turned his gaze away from the two people in front of him who were having fun.
Jiang Sui swept his previously straight back and leaned on the sofa behind him. The smile on his face faded, and he stared into the void in a trance, appearing indifferent under the overhead light.
Wen Hangxing didn't disturb him. He lay leisurely beside him, closing his eyes as if he was asleep.
Silence flowed between the two of them. After a while, Jiang Sui spoke, "Hangxing, that man is about to leave Changcheng, and Zhang Wan has divorced him. He came to me several times, but I rejected him. I often think of my mother now. Do you think she would be satisfied with the ending of these people?"
"Yes, A Sui. Auntie has always been proud of you. You know, as long as you live a good life, she will be satisfied."
The bitterness in his heart flowed through his limbs along with his blood, and then inevitably pressed into his throat. Jiang Sui narrowed his eyes, as if mumbling to himself or asking others, with deep confusion, "Really? But after everything is over, I don't feel happy at all."
Wen Hangxing turned his head to look at him, "These are not important. What's important is that you understand that you are not alone."
"Yeah, I understand."
Jiang Sui laughed, with tiny stars in his eyes, shining brightly. "Now that I think about it, I'm quite lucky. You, Jun Qi, and Aunt Lin have always been behind me and supported me. I'm very grateful."
"So cheer up quickly. Didn't you say your goal was to restore the Tang family's former glory?"
When Yan Junqi came back, he saw Wen Hangxing and Jiang Sui playing chess. After taking a closer look at Jiang Sui's expression, he smiled with relief, "It's still our Young Master Wen who has to take action."
Wen Hangxing didn't even raise his head. "Shao Pin, where's Ms. Lin?"
Yan Junqi covered his chest and accused: "You don't care about me, are you still a brother?"
Wen Hangxing just couldn't bear to watch, "Put away your desire to perform, if you lose that person, you're done for."
Yan Junqi pointed to the back and said, "How dare I? Aunt Lin is playing at the game console."
Wen Hangxing glanced over and saw that the person was indeed there safely, so he felt relieved and continued playing chess.
Yan Junqi glanced at the time and blurted out, "What time do we leave tonight?"
Wen Hangxing was about to say that it would be a normal time, but then he remembered that he was carrying a "burden" with him, and instantly swallowed the words.
Yan Junqi continued, "Auntie Lin is here. We shouldn't be able to go back at four or five in the morning tonight, right?"
Wen Hangxing pinched his brows in annoyance, then looked at the person happily playing in front of the game console, "Go ask her, maybe she's planning to stay here tonight!"
Jiang Sui put down a chess piece and looked in Lin Yitang's direction. "Not really. Aunt Lin should know her limits."
Wen Hangxing sneered, "She has no sense of propriety, go ask her."
A figure suddenly appeared within her sight. Lin Yitang tilted her head slightly and heard Jiang Sui's voice, "Aunt Lin, it's so late now. When are you going back?"
Lin Yitang glanced at the time on the wall and sighed slightly, "It's only one o'clock, and you can't hold on? No way."
Her suspicious look made even the usually calm Jiang Sui feel uneasy, and he reflexively replied, "We're fine. We're just worried that you won't be able to adapt since this is your first time here."
Lin Yitang stared at the screen in front of him and replied casually, "You're worrying too much. I'm quite adaptable."
Jiang Sui returned, and two pairs of eyes stared at him, "How is it?"
Jiang Sui smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Aunt Lin still wants to play."
Yan Junqi replied nonchalantly, "If you want to play, then play for a while longer. It's not a big deal."
Wen Hangxing gritted his teeth and said, "We avoided the servants at home when we came out."
"Uncle Wen is on a business trip?"
Wen Hangxing's eyes were dead, "No, at the old house."
Oh no.
Yan Junqi immediately took back what he had said, "You guys are really brave. Isn't this like plucking a tiger's whiskers?"
Jiang Sui also coughed a few times and said earnestly, "Hangxing, you were indeed careless this time."
Wen Hangxing threw the chess piece in his hand and said, "There's nothing I can do. She heard our conversation and insisted on coming. I can't stop her."
Although Ms. Lin did not state it directly, Wen Hangxing was certain that as long as he showed any intention of not bringing Ms. Lin out, Ms. Lin would definitely sell him out.
Yan Junqi and Jiang Sui fell silent. Yan Junqi patted Wen Hangxing on the shoulder and said, "Hangxing, you've worked so hard. You've endured so much."
"But will Uncle Wen really not find out tonight? After all, Aunt Lin lives with him, so it would be quite obvious that there's no one in the room, right?"
Jiang Sui asked a fatal question, leaving Wen Hangxing speechless.
