Chapter 397: 257 The Unpredictable Third Child of the Jiang Family, Gossip also Inherited (2 updates)

Beijing's winter was deep and protracted...

The man who entered my vision was tall and slim; perhaps he had just returned from abroad and misjudged the

weather, wearing attire that was rather thin, a neatly buttoned long-sleeve white shirt paired with crisply ironed

black trousers.

He was scholarly and clean, exuding a heavy aura of books.

Members of the Jiang Family were all naturally good-looking, and even if their features weren't perfect, their

temperament and poise wouldn't be lacking.

This man was no exception, his facial features weren't particularly delicate, not as sharp as Jiang Yanting’s, nor

as mischievous as Jiang Chengsi'’s, certainly different from Jiang Jinsang’s elegance. He could be described in one

word...

Plain!

He had a pair of quite beautiful peach blossom eyes, which could be due to his light attire or perhaps the bright

lights, made his face appear somewhat pale. His looks were clearly that of a romantic, yet his lips were thin, cold

and icy.

"Xiaowu." His voice carried a unique depth and maturity, magnetic and pleasant to hear.

"Third cousin," greeted Jiang Jinsang upon seeing him, an indication of their rather unfamiliar relationship by

deliberately adding the word "cousin."

"This must be Miss Tang," their gazes met, and Tang Wan felt an inexplicable jolt in her heart.

Perhaps it was because he had rushed to catch the flight, but there were sred veins in his eyes. His pupils,

ink-dyed, were deep and unfathomable. He was someone with a particularly strong bookish air, yet,

paradoxically, the angle of his jaw was sharp.

This gave him an overall sense of frostiness.

"Hello," Tang Wan greeted him politely.

Jiang Chengsi was also present, and the old lady had cout of her room. He had brought gifts for everyone.

Jiangjiang had received his gift, a little model that boys liked, and was already sitting to one side, engrossed in

playing with it.

To Tang Wan's surprise, she too had received a gift, "Thank you."

"I should be the one apologizing to you."

Nobody deliberately mentioned Jiang Shuyan, but seeing her grandson after such a long time, the old lady was

naturally delighted, "Shiyi, how long are you back for this time? Are you leaving again?"

"I'm not leaving," said Jiang Shiyi with a steady voice, showing almost no emotion.

With the family going through such a serious ordeal, Jiang Chengsi and Jiang Zhaolin having fallen out, and Jiang

Shuyan seriously ill in the hospital, he couldn't possibly leave at this time.

"It's better if you stay, | worry about you being all alone abroad."

After chatting for over ten minutes about trivial matters, Jiang Shiyi stood up to leave. The old lady didn’t ask

him to stay longer, just that he should cby the house when he had the time.

Jiang Shiyi stood up, picking up the coat that was resting on one side, and with a peripheral glance to Jiang

Chengsi who was sitting aside, said, "Fourth brother, cout withfor a moment."

Jiang Chengsi took a deep breath, knowing the inevitable couldn't be avoided.

The two stood outside the house, one thinly clad and cutting a striking figure, the other somber in black. One too

rigid, the other too roguish, they didn’t resemble brothers born of the smother.

"Brother... about Shuyan, it's impossible forto have realized the truth and still have indulged her by sending

her abroad. Doing so truly harmed her, I..." Jiang Chengsi didn’t finish his sentence before being interrupted.

"Is there no room for reconciliation between you and father?"

"Don’t others understand our relationship? Don’t you know it yourself? Did you ctoday to mediate?"

"No," Jiang Shiyi denied directly, "I just want to tell you to visit mother more often when you're free. | still need to

go hand pack things for the hospital."

Having said that, Jiang Shiyi drove away. Jiang Chengsi squinted his eyes.

Since the eldest brother passed

Tang Wan had already followed Jiang Jinsang back to the room to apply medicine. No matter how gently he was,

rubbing and massaging her back slowly, it still hurt so much that her scalp went numb.

"What does your cousin do? He seems to have a strong scholarly air, doesn’t look like he’s in business."

"Your father also looks quite refined, and my brother says in the business world, he’s decisive and ruthless, not

the least bit soft." Jiang Jinsang said with a smile.

Tang Wan choked on her words, her dad... indeed, that was true.

"He's indeed not in business. He was

very good at math and science in

school, but he wena gaceaniie

g is Ph.D., and now works in a lab

at a foreign company. As for what

exactly he researches, he mentioned

it once, but | don't quite remember."

"Chemistry? A true scholar," Tang

Wan mused. Her own physics and

chemistry grades were mediocreand

stay up all night before exams to the

Jiang Jinsang merely smiled, continuing to apply the medicine.

Tang Wan pursed her lips. Having only met him once, she couldn't tell if he was friend or foe, and surprisingly,

the gift he had given her was a carefully selected flame-blue water cup.
