After Switching Bodies, the Mad Overbearing CEO Takes Over the Entertainment Industry Chapter 237: 232: Engaged at Twenty, Married at Twenty-Two
Chapter 237: Chapter 232: Engaged at Twenty, Married at Twenty-Two
“It should be, I guess.”
“…”
So the man that day was just a scapegoat found by Qin Jiangsheng, quite cautious, but only fitting for the mastermind. It wasn’t possible for him to put himself in danger. Ji Tian had been wearing a mask the entire ti that day, and no one who didn’t recognize her could have known who she was.
“Then you…”
Qin Jiangsheng placed so shrimp into her bowl with his chopsticks: “I’ve erased your information from Hei City; they’ll never be able to find you.”
Ji Tian sighed in relief, then worriedly said, “What about you? Isn’t it very dangerous for you to do sothing like this before you’ve separated from Hei City?”
“I’m fine.” He smiled lightly, “He isn’t going to do anything to ; he’s already agreed to let go, I should be able to leave after so ti.”
Ji Tian was skeptical: “Will Mo Jiu actually let people go? Is he really that kind-hearted?”
“Don’t worry, he will.” Qin Jiangsheng didn’t want Ji Tian to worry about him, “Let’s eat first; I’ll take you ho later.”
“Oh.”
Ji Tian nibbled on the shrimp, stealing glances at his cold, handso profile. His eyelashes were long, and sensing her gaze, he turned and t her eyes, a warmth spilling from his: “What’s wrong?”
Caught in the act, Ji Tian quickly turned her head away: “No, nothing.”
As if rembering sothing, she turned back and cleared her throat lightly: “Are you still participating in the second episode of the variety show? My mom signed up again.”
Qin Jiangsheng had almost forgotten about that variety show; it was Old Sir Bai who had sent him there. At first, he thought it was to show Bai Tingyu up, but then he realized it was to have him make more friends.
The scions of Capital City’s four wealthiest families were all participating. Seeing him always alone, Old Sir Bai had signed him up. Qin Jiangsheng didn’t actually enjoy places where crowds gathered, nor did he like the noise.
But he liked places where Ji Tian was; they inexplicably made him feel at ease.
This feeling beca more pronounced the longer he spent ti with Ji Tian.
He nodded slightly; “I’ll still participate; this ti we need to be on the sa team from start to finish.”
Ji Tian couldn’t hold back a laugh: “Who knows what the rules will be this ti? What if it doesn’t work out?”
Qin Jiangsheng frowned slightly, then after a mont said, “It has to work out. How could I possibly rest easy with you on the sa team as other n?”
Her cheeks flushed slightly as she snorted lightly: “I haven’t even formally accepted you yet. If my brother finds out you have designs on , they would definitely break your legs.”
Qin Jiangsheng: “…”
Right, there were three overprotective older brothers.
He pondered for a mont before earnestly saying, “When you turn twenty, I will definitely co to seek an engagent, and we can get married at twenty-two.”
“That early?” Ji Tian was led astray by his comnt.
She hadn’t seen anyone around her getting married at twenty-two…
Even her eldest brother, at twenty-seven, was still single, as was her second brother, twenty-four, who had never even had a girlfriend.
“Is it early?” Qin Jiangsheng seed genuinely puzzled: “Isn’t that the legal age for marriage? Just right. If you don’t want twenty-two, we can also do twenty-three.”
Ji Tian: “…”
Was this really a matter of age?!
Why was he planning so far ahead? They weren’t even eighteen yet; he had everything set for five years down the line.
“Let’s, let’s talk about it later.”
Qin Jiangsheng was sowhat dissatisfied with Ji Tian’s ambiguous response but then thought that verbal promises were useless. He was always action-oriented. Thinking this, he cald down, knowing she was right in front of him; where could she run off to?
After finishing the al, he took Ji Tian ho. Everyone lived roughly in the sa area, although one villa area was about ten minutes to a half an hour’s drive from another.
“Just drop off here, you should head back before it gets dark.” Ji Tian stood at the gate, speaking to Qin Jiangsheng.
The sky gets dark early in winter. Neither of them had driven, having taken a taxi to Ya Garden. Qin Jiangsheng had a bit of a walk ahead of him back to the Bai Family ho.
“Alright.” He nodded gently, waved at her: “See you on Monday.”
The cold wind blew, and Ji Tian shrank her neck, “See you later.”
“Little cousin? You’re getting ho so late? You’re not dating soone, are you?” Tang Yu’s voice suddenly appeared, startling Ji Tian.
She quickly retorted, “Nonsense, I’m not dating anyone!”
She didn’t dare to reveal even a hint, for fear that if her older brother disapproved of Qin Jiangsheng, what would he do to him?
At this mont, she hadn’t realized that subconsciously, she had started to protect him.
“Hey! Still saying no! I really want to see which damn kid is…” He appeared from behind Ji Tian, looked at Qin Jiangsheng with his indifferent gaze, and almost bit his tongue, “Old…”
Realizing sothing, he changed his tone, “In such chilly weather, enjoying the romance of flowers and snow without fearing a cold, cough, I’ll pretend I didn’t see anything this ti, but next ti, don’t hang around where there are people.”
Ji Tian: “…”
Qin Jiangsheng: “…”
Who knew when this hacker decided to step up? His brain didn’t seem to be working too well.
Ji Tian struggled to explain a mouthful, “He’s just a good friend of mine!”
“Mmm-hmm, okay, I got it, I’m leaving, you two carry on.” Tang Yu, like greasing his feet, dashed into the villa.
“…”
Qin Jiangsheng took his gaze off Tang Yu, “Let’s go inside, I’m leaving.”
After saying that, he walked to the left.
Only when his figure vanished did Ji Tian head ho. At the front door, she encountered Ji Qilin, wearing glasses and holding a book, “You’re back? I made silver ear soup, have a bowl while it’s hot. It nourishes the yin and moistens the lungs, and is good for the stomach to produce fluids, it’s quite effective.”
“I also made Lotus Cakes, want to try so?”
Ji Tian was instantly attracted by the Lotus Cakes. Ji Qilin rarely ca ho, but he was skilled in everything, especially in cooking, where his expertise was exceptional; even a random dish he cooked was delicious. However, being busy with work, he seldom had spare ti for these things. Only recently, when he was ho, Ji Tian would ask him for help with dical questions. More importantly, he spared his evenings to tutor Ji Weinan in school subjects, whether Weinan understood or not, just taught, with an air of indifference to life and death.
Actually, if her second brother didn’t beco a dical researcher, being a teacher wouldn’t be too bad, of course, a chef as well!
The epito of a good man, adept in the hall and the kitchen, was her second brother.
Ji Tian salivated for the treat, “Where’s the Lotus Cake? It’s been so long since I’ve had it.”
Ji Qilin looked at her indulgently, “They’re on the table, you little glutton, I’ve saved so for you.”
He walked in with Ji Tian and saw her already eagerly eating a piece, her eyes happily narrowed, “Mmmm, it’s so delicious, Second Brother, the pastry is baked to a crisp outside and flaky inside, sweet but not greasy, with a refreshing scent of lotus, delicious, delicious.”
Ji Qilin brought a bowl of silver ear soup from the kitchen for her, considering she had just eaten and didn’t fill the bowl too much, aiming for a moderate sense of fullness, “Drink so of this, it’s still hot. If you’re too full, tell , and I’ll make you so hawthorn tea to help digest.”
Ji Tian suddenly understood Lin Shisheng’s feelings—how could anyone not love such a gentle and considerate big brother, who she missed for two years. A wave of gratitude filled Ji Tian, her eyes brimming with tears, “Thank you, Second Brother.”
Ji Qilin smiled and ruffled her hair, “Silly girl, what’s there to thank? I’m your brother.”
The word “brother” encompassed so much. He was older than his siblings and ca to understand responsibility before they did. It was his path to walk a few more years ahead of them—a duty inherently given to him.
Parents always hope their children are safe.
Being a brother, he too hoped his younger siblings would have a smooth life.
“Second Cousin? Are there more of these pastries? I want another piece.” Tang Yu appeared from the side, reached for a piece, but Ji Tian snatched it back like it was a treasure, “These are all mine! If you want so, make them yourself.”
Tang Yu: “…”
Was this golden discount card given for nothing?
He looked pitifully at Ji Qilin, who helplessly signaled with his eyes, “There are more in the oven.”
He cheerfully ran to the kitchen, “Thank you, Second Cousin.”
“I’m off to tutor Ah Nan in physics. If you have any questions about dicine, you can co to .” He paused, then continued, “But don’t tell any secrets about the KI research, in order to avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings.”
The “misunderstanding” referred to Lin Shisheng.
Two years ago, he rejected research in cardiology, and two years later, he remained unchanged in his original intention to fight cancer.
