<strong>Chapter 268: 188, the little Jiang Family tsundere, this ghost is hidden too deep</strong>


    Jiang Family


    Tang Wan descended from upstairs, Jiangjiang was sitting cross-legged on the carpet, his head lowered ying with a Rubik’s cube, yet his gaze continually fell on his little cellphone.


    Today, Tang Yunxian would be returning from Pingjiang. He probably didn’t want to spend New Year’s at the Jiang Family. He had always been a bother to them, ruing quite a bit of social debt, fearing it could never bepletely repaid.


    Now, with the situation between Tang Wan and Jiang Jinsang, any father looking at his son-inw, even if the man’s credentials were exceptional, couldn’t help but be critical. But given his current predicament, wanting to find fault with Jinsang was out of the question; after all, he owed that family so much…


    Before departing, he had a long chat with his own father, simply not wanting to be a disturbance here, but in the end, he was still defeated by failure.


    He could only return to Pingjiang to handle his affairs, striving toe back earlier.


    “Auntie,” Jiangjiang greeted Tang Wan warmly as usual when he saw here downstairs.


    “Back already? How did you sleepst night after staying out?” Tang Wan squatted down, examining his face. The ce where he had been hit yesterday wasn’t very noticeable, but today it had swollen terribly.


    “Very well.”


    “Does your face hurt?”


    “Not anymore,” Jiangjiang said, his eyes continuously ncing at the doorway and his phone.


    “Waiting for someone? Or a phone call?”


    “How could that be!” Jiangjiang’s voice suddenly grew louder. Fan Mingyu, sitting to the side cutting roses, was also drawn by his abrupt outburst.


    A child can’t conceal so many secrets; everything is written on their face, in as day.


    Tang Wan couldn’t help butugh out loud, and Jiangjiang bit his lip, ncing at his phone. “It looks like my phone is out of power, I need to go charge it.”


    After saying that, he ran upstairs with his phone in his arms.


    “This child…” Fan Mingyu set down her scissors and ced the bouquet in a wide-mouthed ss vase, reaching out to adjust it. “He’s charged his phone four times just this morning. Actually, we’ve always been worried about finding a partner for Yanting; we’re concerned because Jiangjiang is still young and children are sensitive…”


    “I understand,” Tang Wan nodded. Although her situation with Jiangjiang was different, she also had simr experiences.


    “I didn’t expect him to like the Xie Family’s child so much…”


    Tang Wan stood beside her, helping to clean up the clippings from the table. It seemed that the second master hadn’t yete clean to the family about his matters with Shen Zhixian. Naturally, she wouldn’t say too much, only remarking.


    “Teacher Shen has a pretty good personality.”


    “You’ve met?” Fan Mingyu was surprised, “Tell me, what kind of person is he?”


    People who hadn’t met him were naturally curious. During the previous matchmaking, the Xie Family had shown a photo, but that alone couldn’t reveal his character. She was also worried, if she and Jiang Yanting truly became a couple, what if it was bad for Jiangjiang?


    “We have a working rtionship,” Tang Wan selectively shared some details with Fan Mingyu.


    Meanwhile, upstairs, Jiangjiangy on his bed staring nkly at his phone. It had been so long; why was there still no call?


    Jiangjiang wasn’t clingy; he was just terrified that everything that had happened yesterday was just a dream, that Shen Zhixian had only made a fleeting visit and would disappear again.


    He hesitated but ultimately dialed the number, his entire body leaping up from the bed, staring intensely at his phone, ready for battle…

    At that time at the Xie Family


    The news that Jiang Yanting had stayed overnight at Shen Zhixian’s ce had also reached the Xie Family. Shocked, they wanted to understand how far the rtionship between the two had progressed.


    “…Last night, it was only Jiangjiang who stayed at my ce. Second Master Jiang came to check because he was worried.” Shen Zhixian kept it tight-lipped.


    “Is that all?” The look on Elder Xie’s face seemed somewhat disappointed.


    He rubbed his knee, angrily pping his thighs twice, thinking something might have happened…


    “What else?” Shen Zhixian countered.


    “Little miss, grandpa thought you and Second Master might’ve, you know.” Xie Tongtong sat close beside her, resting a hand on her arm, “What’s really going on between you two? Back at the hospital, didn’t you seem quite opposed, saying you didn’t like him? Then suddenly…”


    “I guess after seeing his child, I got along quite well with the kid and just had a bit more contact.”


    “Do you have feelings for each other? Is there a real possibility of things developing?”


    “What’s the matter?” Shen Zhixian didn’t know who the mole in the Xie Family was and, although her face betrayed no emotion, she was discreetly scrutinizing every member of the Xie Family.


    “Big brother is very concerned about this matter!” Xie Tongtong smiled.


    “Xie Tongtong!” Xie Duo, sitting on one side, suddenly spoke with a stern tone that was quite intimidating.
