Maybe it was the alcohol before, but his eyes had so red blood streaks.
At this mont, they seed to turn into clusters of sparks.
Even the wind blowing in through the window seed to lose its chill.
"Xiaoxiao..."
"Mm?" Si Qingxiao shivered, trying to hold back.
"Compared to my brother, Xiaowu, and them, I’m not very good at taking care of people." Jiang Chengsi was still brooding over the water incident on the hike today, "I’ve never been in a relationship before, so I don’t know how to take care of you, but I’ll learn slowly."
He couldn’t be a perfect and thoughtful boyfriend, but he also didn’t want to be worse than others.
"Mm." She nodded in agreent.
"If there’s anything I’m not doing well, just tell , I’ll change and learn." With how things went today with the group, there had to be comparisons, Jiang Jinsang was just too considerate. In contrast, Jiang Chengsi felt even more that he had many areas to improve and learn.
She nodded in agreent.
"I’ve been too busy lately and haven’t had ti to be with you..."
"It’s okay, I understand."
"So, are you going back tonight?"
"..."
Si Qingxiao’s rationality told her she should leave. Even Jiang Chengsi’s rationality was telling him that he should send her back, yet he wanted to keep her.
In love, couples in the heat of passion, even if they are together every mont, won’t feel that it’s too much ti.
There are countless ways to be intimate.
"Do you... want to go back tonight?" Jiang Chengsi handed the decision over to her, "Hmm?"
His face, whether it was from the burn of alcohol or sothing else, was a bit red, with his hair slightly curled at the ends, roguish and untad, with his clothes loose...
Sohow enticing.
Si Qingxiao’s brain was quite foggy, and she didn’t speak. Jiang Chengsi, as if afraid she would regret it, turned his head and kissed her.
He originally thought that he would send her back later...
But people are greedy by nature.
In the past days, even if they t, there wasn’t such an opportunity for intimacy. Tonight was a rare chance to be alone, with the lingering fragrance and roses around, it seed everything was just right.
The main thing was, today was special. Every year on this day, Jiang Chengsi would drown all his emotions in alcohol to numb himself, but this year was different...
He already had her by his side.
Si Qingxiao was in a half-hearted state. As the relationship had developed to a certain extent, so things just fell into place naturally.
The main thing was, she felt sorry for the man in front of her.
There’s a saying that goes, when you start feeling sorry for a man, you’re done for.
...
anwhile, the Si Family had already driven to the club, and it was nearly midnight. The people in the driver and passenger seats glanced at each other.
"Why is the young lady not answering the phone?" One of them called again, but no one answered.
"It’s probably not over yet." There were more people at the club at night, and cars were still coming and going at the entrance, as the nightlife in Beijing seed to just be starting.
"Then let’s wait for a bit. When the young lady cos out, she should call us."
"The young lady has beco more liberated since she t Fourth Master. She rarely ca ho this late when Mr. and Mrs. were around."
"Falling in love is definitely different."
"Recently, Mr. Jiang’s temper hasn’t been good. We have to serve carefully at ho."
"But Mr. Jiang has been having quite a streak of bad luck lately; the walls at ho were torn down, and he even accidentally twisted his back. Do you think Mr. Jiang’s luck has turned and he needs to go to a temple to pray and make offerings?"
"And Mrs. Jiang too, she doesn’t show it, but she must be feeling troubled about her family’s matters."
The two continued chatting on and off, yawning at length, and as they couldn’t hold on any longer, they decided to take turns to keep watch.
But still, they didn’t see Si Qingxiao coming out.
It wasn’t a matter of coming ho late, but about not coming ho at all for the entire night.
...
When Jiang Chengsi glanced at his watch, the neon lights outside had completely gone out, and the sky was already light, with the light becoming soft and vague through the sheer curtains.
It was already early the next morning.
Lowering his eyes to look at the person in his arms, Si Qingxiao had long fallen asleep, so he carried her to the bathroom. The manager had already answered the call to co to the room and tidy it up a bit.
The manager, already married with kids, couldn’t help blushing when seeing the state of the room.
Ah, the youth...
They quickly changed the sheets and tidied up the room a little before hastily exiting.
...
Jiang Chengsi, after holding her for just over ten minutes, was woken by the urgent ring of his phone.
Instinctively looking at the person in his arms, Si Qingxiao was evidently exhausted and hadn’t been disturbed at all. He, therefore, tiptoed across the room to take the call, "Hello, brother?"
The caller was none other than Jiang Shiyi.
"Let’s go hiking together." Jiang Shiyi’s voice was perpetually calm, and early in the morning, even more so.
"..."
"We talked about it yesterday." Indeed, this was ntioned during the offerings, but he never agreed to it.
This early in the morning, is he crazy?
Inviting for a hike?
"I’m not available."
"Up so early and so lively, did you not sleep all night?" Jiang Shiyi, no wonder he was his own brother, was spot on. If soone had just woken up and got disturbed, they would have hung up imdiately rather than having the ti to talk with him.
"Brother, please spare ."
"Did she not go back last night?"
"Brother, can’t you let date without hovering over like a housekeeper?"
"Did you not promise Mr. Si to send her back? I’m just worried that next year on this day, I might be paying respects to two of you."
"..."
Having been wild and indulgent all night, nothing about the Si family crossed Jiang Chengsi’s mind.
He probably doesn’t even know who Si Yushan is!
Rembering now, he felt a chill at the back of his neck. Si Qingxiao was still sound asleep, as he put on a coat, squatting on a chair, pondering how to explain to the Si family.
Given Uncle Si’s temper, would he break his legs?
He promised to send her ho; uncle and aunt trusted him, and even asked her to accompany him to the offerings with such care, and yet he ended up...
Jiang Chengsi tugged at his hair, his head aching badly.
Indeed, one shouldn’t be too reckless.
Being too reckless can lead to trouble.
