Chapter 88: 088 The Ginger Couple’s First Intimacy   Chapter 88: 088 The Ginger Couple’s First Intimacy                                   The night was deep, and the moonlight was cool.


    Jiang Jinsang leaned halfway out, close to Tang Wan. The two had no other physical contact, but their faces were too close, their breaths entangled.


    It seemed as if even the chilly moonlight had taken on a hint of warmth.


    “Wanwan—” his voice was low.


    Every word seemed to roll a hundred times in his throat, casual yet as if he had drunk the strongest liquor. It felt thick and scalding in her ears.


    It made one’s ears feel hot.


    Tang Wan slept heavily, perhaps by instinct or a sixth sense, she felt a pair of eyes watching her.


    Feeling extreme danger, she curled up in the nket, slightly adjusting her position.


    Jiang Jinsang hadn’t drunk much tonight, and the cool breeze on his way back left himpletely sober, but at that moment, his head felt heavy as if he were seven or eight parts drunk, and somehow, he drew closer.


    Tang Wan wasn’t drunk or unconscious, and he didn’t dare to be too bold…


    He lowered his head and kissed the corner of her lips.


    Very lightly, gently.


    His heart pounded against his chest, like a drumbeat; it was, after all, a stolen kiss, a sensation that was both nerve-wracking and thrilling.


    Out of the corner of his eye, he saw his little nephew sleeping to one side, who once again kicked off his nket, revealing a section of his small belly, in an unsightly sleeping posture. He reached out and pulled the nket up slightly…


    Covering him from head to toe.


    Out of sight, out of mind.


    Some things are like drinking poison to quench thirst, once you start, you want more, and Jiang Jinsang gazed at the person before him with an increasingly heavy gaze.


    …


    When Jiang Jinsang came out, it was more than ten minutester, Jiang Cuo was leaning against the wall, yawning with fatigue, and straightened up when he saw hime out.


    He watched him go back to his room before nudging Jiang Jiu at his side, “What were you doing in there so long? You seem to be in a good mood when you came out.”


    After all, Tang Wan was only asleep, and Jiang Cuo thought that Jiang Jinsang wouldn’t dare to overstep.


    Jiang Jiu turned his head to look at him, “When you’re with someone you like, even if you do nothing, just watching is joyful. You, a creature driven by your lower half without true love, wouldn’t understand.”


    Jiang Cuo was a bit sleepy just now, but at this moment, he was fully awake, “Oh,e on, you talk as if you understand so much. Have you ever held a girl’s hand, kissed a girl’s lips?”


    Jiang Jiu pushed his sunsses with a hand, unaffected by someone’s ranting and remaining unmoved.


    At this point, Jiang Jinsang had returned to his room, taken a shower, and lingered in the bathroom for a good half an hour beforeing out.


    His phone kept vibrating, it turned out to be Qi Zeyan spamming their group chat:


    [I’ve made up my mind, I must win her over, I can’t believe someone as outstanding as me can’t make her fall at the feet of my suit pants!]


    [I’m so excited right now, I can’t sleep! Don’t you guys sleep either, get up and join the fun.]


    [When I win her over, I’ll treat you all to a meal and drinks.]


    …


    All voice messages.


    Everyone, quite in sync, hadn’t said a word, only his brother sent him a message:


    [What’s up with Zeyan?]


    Just like he hadn’t taken his medicine in the middle of the night.


    Jiang Jinsang saw the message had been sent a few minutes ago, so he directly made a call, “Hello—brother, you’re still not sleeping thiste?”


    “Working.” Sess neveres without a reason in this world, “Did Zeyan drink?”


    “Heartbroken and drowned his sorrows in booze.”


    “Miss Tang?” Qi Zeyan hadn’t mentioned in the group who he was pursuing, but he guessed it by putting the pieces together.


    “Yeah.”


    “Aren’t you feeling even a little bit of crisis?” Someone teased, after all being brothers, he could start to guess a thing or two about Jiang Jinsang’s thoughts.


    “Feelings are reciprocal, why would I take one-sided self-entertainment seriously?” Jiang Jinsang chuckled, “He’s drunk to the point of copse, but Wanwan went to sleep early, she didn’t pay him any attention at all.”


    “Asleep…” Someone frowned, how do you know that?


    “I just came out of her room.”


    “…”


    When it came to being cheeky, Qi Zeyan definitely couldn’t match his own younger brother.


    And recalling the intimacy from earlier, Jiang Jinsang still felt breathless.


    He touched the corner of his mouth subconsciously; the warm, soft touch seemed impossible to dispel, making him wish he could draw a circle around her and possess herpletely.


    “How’s Jiangjiang doing today? How did he behave?” The person asked, his voice softening.


    “Pretty well behaved…”


    “That’s good.”


    The person had no idea that his son, with his head covered by the nket, was struggling to breathe, ufortably kicking his little legs until he woke Tang Wan from her sleep, her eyes bleary as she fished him out from under the nket.


    Meanwhile, back at the hotel, Qi Zeyan was still pondering whether Tang Wan was deliberately keeping him in suspense, an unsessful flirtation that must have left him frustrated and unwilling to ept it. Little did he know, someone had already taken advantage of the situation, entering the room and taking liberties, fueled by a little alcohol.

    The next morning,


    Jiang Jinsang, despite having gone to bedte due to his biological clock reasons, woke up early. As he descended the stairs, Tang Wan just happened to return from outside, carrying breakfast she had bought.


    “Master Jiang, good morning.” Tang Wan, after much contemtion, decided to revert to her previous way of addressing him.


    Jiang Jinsang’s eyes narrowed slightly, his fingers fidgeting, as he casually responded.


    “Jiangjiang is still sleeping; I didn’t wake him.” Tang Wan said as she walked into the kitchen with the breakfast, nning to ce the food on tes to serve. Catching a glimpse of Jiang Jinsang following her in, she continued, “I have to visit the police stationter, and I won’t have time to make breakfast, so I went out to buy something.”


    “Because of the Zhang Family’s matter?” Jiang Jinsang approached her.


    “Um, they wanted to get some information from me.”


    “How is it that after one night’s sleep, you seem more distant from me again?”


    Tang Wan paused in her task, giving a forcedugh, “Do I?”


    “Why didn’t you call me like you did yesterday?” Jiang Jinsang leaned in close, a faint mint scent emanating from him, refreshing and invigorating.


    “Yesterday…” Tang Wan pursed her lips, her face showing difficulty.


    Jiang Jinsang, being very clever, caught on to her hesitation. It seemed she was ufortable with the sudden change in how she addressed him, “Actually…”


    “I really like it when you call me ‘Brother Five’.”


    “It feels intimate.”


    He always spoke with a bit of restraint, keeping a certain distance, yet his words sent a tingling sensation through the listener.


    Tang Wan nodded, grasping at a random excuse to cate him, “Maybe it’s a bit difficult to switch how I address you all of a sudden.”


    “No rush; take your time.”


    After all… I have plenty of time to wait for you to get used to it.


    Tang Wan had to visit the police station early, so she ate breakfast ahead of time. Jiang Jinsang said he would wait for Jiangjiang to wake up before eating, so he didn’t eat himself, but his gaze lightly and seemingly unintentionally followed Tang Wan.


    She felt somehow flustered under his gaze, feeling that after one night, the way he looked at her had changed.


    It seemed…


    Even more fervent!

    Pingjiang Airport


    Qi Zeyan’s flight back to Beijing was scheduled for the morning; both Tang Yunxian and Jiang Jinsang hade to see him off. He was still dressed sharply in a suit and with a well-oiled hair parting, looking even more refined today.


    He thought about leaving, wanting to give Tang Wan a deep,sting impression.


    However, his phone vibrated. Tang Wan hadn’te; she had only sent him a text message:


    [Mr. Qi, I had somethinge up unexpectedly and can’t see you off. I’ve already asked Manager Chen to go on my behalf. Have a safe trip.]


    Qi Zeyan: Could it be that she’s purposely avoiding me because of yesterday’s confession?


    Jiang Jinsang nced at him:


    Could this guy be conjuring up some muddled thoughts, needlessly making up drama for himself?
