    <strong>Chapter 267: 187 Come back home with me, Fourth Master turns into a scumbag [Prize Quiz]_3</strong>


    “…All right, hurry up and get in the car, it’s too cold outside,” Shen Zhixian pinched his little face.


    But Jiangjiang still stood immovably.


    “What’s wrong? I’ll definitelye back, otherwise, shall we pinky swear?”


    “No pinky swearing; that’s just for tricking three-year-olds.”


    “Then why aren’t you getting in the car?”


    Jiangjiang pulled out a small cell phone from his little backpack and handed it to her, “We haven’t exchanged phone numbers yet.”


    Shen Zhixian paused, then couldn’t help butugh out loud, because Jiangjiang had been unhappy from mealtime till now, she’d beenforting him andpletely forgot about the phone number thing.


    After saving the number, Jiangjiang even checked it, stood in ce hesitating, then tiptoed up and gave her a kiss on the cheek, “Two days! If you don’te, I’ll stop talking to you, also…”


    “Don’t expect me to contact you!”


    He climbed into the car, clutching the cellphone, his little face all flushed!


    He kissed her…


    Thrilling!


    Shen Zhixian stood her ground, softlyughed, and watched Jiang Yanting’s car drive away before taking a long breath, this kid, so proud, who did he learn this from.

    Jiang Family


    The olddy and Old Tang had breakfast, took a stroll in the small park and came back just to see Jiang Yanting carrying Jiangjiang and luggage back.


    “Great-grandma!” Jiangjiang rushed over and hugged the olddy’s legs, using too much force that if she wasn’t leaning on a cane, she would have been knocked down.


    “Jiangjiang, slow down.” Jiang Yanting was just getting the luggage from the car.


    “Ouch, wait a minute, what happened to your face? Who hit you?” The child’s skin was tender; any trace of injury was particrly conspicuous, making the olddy quite distressed.


    “I fell while ying football yesterday.” Jiang Yanting helped him out.


    “Did you use your face to y football?” The olddy held his little face and examined it from all angles, “Why are there also bruises?”


    ying football with his face?


    Jiangjiang’s little face instantly darkened.


    “Hurry inside, and let me have a good look at you.” The olddy grasped his little hand and headed toward the house. Fan Mingyu, seeing her little grandson with a bruised nose and face, couldn’t care less about Jiang Yanting and Shen Zhixian’s affairs; she also held him for a long time.


    “Great-grandma, grandma, I’m fine.” Jiangjiang, in a good mood, grinned broadly.


    “Did you have fun ying with Auntie? Do you like her?” The olddy, seeing him happy, was distressed yet pleased at heart.


    “I like her.” Jiangjiang smiled.


    Olddy and Fan Mingyu exchanged nces. Jiangjiang was usually very polite, seemingly liked everyone, and greeted everydy warmly as ‘sister’, but not everyone made him this happy. It seemed that the Xie family’s child indeed had some fate with their family.


    Heading upstairs with the luggage, Jiang Yanting just happened to run into Jiang Jinsang.


    “Howe you’re back so early? Your eyes are a bit red, did you and sister-inw go to bedtest night?”


    “You also have dark circles, what were you up tost night?”


    “While Jiangjiang is still here, you wouldn’t dare do much, would you?”


    “You should take more care of your health.”


    …


    In fact, both had missed out on the ‘action’ yet kept up stubborn fronts; they traded barbs at the stairwell for a long time.


    “The news about you spending the night with Jiangjiang must be known to the Xie family by now,” Jiang Jinsang chuckled lightly.


    “We’ll see what Chengsi can find out. If he can’t find any clues and we can’t alert the enemy prematurely, I can also bait them out …” Jiang Yanting raised his hand, adjusting his sleeve cuff, “I want to know, if we get together, whether anyone in the Xie Family will be restless.”


    “Or, knowing that the child is still alive, who would lose sleep.”


    “Not just the Xie Family, I reckon great-grandma and the others will also have sleepless nights.”

    Meanwhile, abroad


    Jiang Chengsi arrivedst night at the ce where Jiang Yanting had studied. Early this morning, he found the hospital where Shen Zhixian had once stayed, based on the information she provided.


    This was the hospital she was transferred to after hemorrhaging into shock. Although he could request hospital records by providing her name, it turned up nothing, clearly well erased. Finally, he found a doctor who had left almost three years ago after remembering the names of a few medical staff members.


    After asking many people, he finally heard where he lived.


    Doctors had treated many patients, and there weren’t many with Asian faces, so when Jiang Chengsi mentioned her, the doctor’s expression immediately changed, but he then looked at him warily: “Who are you to her?”


    Jiang Chengsi couldn’t exactly say he was investigating, so he made up a lie, “I am her husband…”


    Such inquiries wouldn’t usually merit a response from a doctor!


    “I just heard from someone recently that she had a child for me, and came to inquire specifically; please help me.”


    “Her husband?” The doctor looked him over, “Her family said her husband had died.”


    “…”


    Jiang Chengsi raised an eyebrow, her family? The Xie Family?


    That’s harsh!


    “I was a total jerk before, good-for-nothing, there has been some misunderstanding, so…” Jiang Chengsi, a man not used to ying by the book and excellent at lying, didn’t show any sign of difort.


    The doctor, observing him, noted the temperate climate that didn’t require heavy clothing; he was dressed decently, looking like a good person, since he was here to find out about someone, he definitely couldn’te in a leather jacket, but his inherent roughness couldn’t be concealed.


    The doctor was astounded:


    At first nce, not exactly someone that poor girl could hold onto, no wonder she was deceived.


    At first nce, seemed pretty sleazy!


    “Doctor, I just want to do my best to make it up to her.” Jiang Chengsi coughed lowly, feeling he had sacrificed too much this time.


    Just by the doctor’s look, he knew he was definitely being perceived as the kind of man that indulges in rtionships without precautions, and then disappears after the deed, deceiving young women.


    “That youngdy left a deep impression on me because she stayed in the hospital quite long,” the doctor recalled carefully.


    “But if you ask me where she is? I’m not sure; there have been no contacts since she was discharged. She suffered from severe hemorrhaging, contracted a disease, I don’t know how she’s doing now.”


    “I wanted to ask how she was recovering after her discharge, but the phone number she left seemed to have been deactivated; I guess she’s probably not in this country anymore.”


    “But when she was brought in, her condition was very dangerous, especially since she lost a child, couldn’t handle the shock, the bleeding was too severe, there wasn’t much will to live.”


    …


    Jiang Chengsi lightly twirled the recording pen in his pocket, feeling there was something odd about the way the doctor spoke.


    “Doctor, what do you mean by lost one…” This phrasing was strange.
