Chapter 145: To Win Over Someone Else’s Sister, Perhaps You Should Pay More Attention?
Jiang Xingyi hadn’t eaten much today and was focusing all of his attention on Jiang Yu. Moreover, this dish was a complimentary dish, he hadn’t ordered it, that was why he wasn’t able to react in time.
It was just that… Little Sister’s naming style was indeed quite casual.
Jiang Xingyi was deeply suspicious. Will she be able to remember the name that she has picked randomly today?
Would she forget the name if others were to mention it in the future?
…
After getting Jiang Yu to agree to go to the concert and to listen to the song, Jiang Xingyi’s felt that his trip today had been successful.
After the meal, Jiang Xingyi went to the washroom. When he came out, he saw Jiang Yu standing at the side of the corridor, looking out of a window.
Her back was facing toward him as if she didn’t sense his presence.
The decoration of Cixi Restaurant was already unique, to begin with. The place was decorated in a coordinated arrangement of colors and items, so even a simple corridor had its own character.
Even when one enters the washroom, it’d feel like walking into a quaint courtyard.
Jiang Xingyi couldn’t help but pick up his phone again and secretly took a candid photo of Jiang Yu’s back.
He looked at his exclusive Jiang Yu photo album in satisfaction.
This was great. He managed to take three photos of his little sister in one day.
It was unlikely that anyone would be able to recognize her from this photo. He could openly set it as his screensaver.
The waiter who had received them at the beginning of the night appeared beside Jiang Yu once again.
Jiang Yu turned around and the man bowed slightly. “Dear customer, are you satisfied with today’s service?”
Jiang Yu: “It was alright.”
“Do you have any valuable suggestions for us?”
Jiang Yu: “The dishes are not bad. The staff was a bit noisy at first, but the latter part was okay.”
The man: “…”
Of course, it was ok later because he did not reappear.
The man was not annoyed. He revealed a polite, toothy smile and said, “Please come again next time.”
Then, he mouthed without saying a word, “My new boss.”
Jiang Yu said slowly, “Goodbye.”
The man walked past Jiang Yu with one hand in his pocket. When he passed Jiang Xingyi, he slowed down a little. He seemed to glance at Jiang Xingyi casually before leaving.
Jiang Xingyi’s brows furrowed slightly then loosened.
This man had changed his clothes.
Was he off work… or was his position in this restaurant a little higher than that of an ordinary waiter?
Perhaps he was overthinking things.
He felt that the man’s gaze just now seemed to carry a deeper meaning…
…
The man strolled back to his room.
He looked at the first message Jiang Yu had sent him, “Nice to meet you. Thank you for the upgrade. There will be an interview next week.”
It was really polite and simple.
The man wasn’t surprised that Jiang Yu had his contact information. The master must have given it to her.
But, his new boss had just arrived and she already wanted to use the back door?
The man lazed across the sofa and waited for the show to unfold. He didn’t mind the drama. He sent a few voice messages to his contact, who was saved as ‘Heartless Man’.
“The new boss is quite good-looking and she seems to have a good relationship with her brother. The two of them are very close. They even went out to have a meal together by themselves.”
“Also, the new boss’s brother seems to be a fool. He secretly took photos of her and stored them in a photo album. He had come back just to meet his sister for dinner. He left on a plane last night.”
“Master, if you want to win over someone else’s sister, perhaps you should pay more attention?”
“I feel anxious for you.”
…
After saying goodbye to Jiang Xingyi, Jiang Yu returned to the Jiang family home to find someone already standing at the door.
Chapter 146: Obsession and Attachment
He was about to be swallowed by the night, who knew how long has he had been standing there.
“Yu’er,” Feng Linbai called out.
He took a step forward and the streetlight reflected on his face. The night had originally been dark and the shadows proved lonely but now, under the warm yellow light, he felt a bit more warmth and gentleness.
“You were waiting for me?”
Jiang Yu asked curiously, “Are you feeling unwell?”
She thought that something was wrong with Feng Linbai’s eyes again, so she casually tiptoed up to his face to check the condition of his eyes.
Feng Linbai could feel that Jiang Yu was very close to him.
She always seemed to be like this. Whenever she did something, she would be especially focused. Every time she checked his eyes, she would be completely focused and was not aware that her closeness was sweet torture to him.
He hoped that she would get closer, but he was also afraid that if she got too close, his reaction would be too obvious. For example, he would be unable to control himself and produce some indescribable…
At this moment, Feng Linbai was glad that his eyes were the way they were.
This way, Jiang Yu wouldn’t be able to see the obsession and attachment he had for her in his heart.
On the surface, he appeared to be doing very well, but only he knew that he was actually a demon when it came to Jiang Yu.
Just like at this moment, if he just lowered his head, he might be able to touch the little lady’s lips.
Feng Lin’s Adam’s apple bobbed.
Not far away, Ke Yanbin covered his mouth tightly. He was even worried about breathing too loudly, afraid that he would ruin the atmosphere.
No wonder his master had not allowed him to get close to Miss Jiang when she had returned.
Thinking about it, it made sense. He would have just been a hindrance…
Jiang Yu, who was doing her job as a doctor, asked curiously, “Are you nervous?”
“Swallowing saliva is a sign of nervousness but I don’t have a scalpel, so I won’t do anything to you. Besides, your eyes have recovered quite well. It’s even better than I expected. I thought it would be a few days later but you can already see the light, right?”
Feng Linbai replied softly, “Yes.”
“From the looks of it, there’s nothing wrong with your eyes. But if you feel uncomfortable, come in with me. I’ll take a closer look at you.” Jiang Yu paused. “Or should we go back to the Jiang family home?”
She wondered what the Jiang family would be having for supper.
Although she had eaten a lot tonight, she had taken on a last-minute job and would be expending a lot of energy. She would probably have an appetite again after it was over.
However, to Feng Linbai, since Jiang Yu had invited him into the Jiang family home, there was no reason for him not to go.
He had come over today because he needed to settle some matters in the Jiang family home anyway. It was just that he had not expected things to go so smoothly.
The little lady was too blunt. In some aspects, she was indeed straightforward and blunt. However, if he thought about it carefully, perhaps he would be able to achieve what he wants?
Feng Linbai thought about it in his heart and replied, “I don’t want to trouble you to go back and forth. let’s just go into your house and have a look.”
Jiang Yu nodded. Before she turned around, she asked, “Where’s your subordinate? Isn’t he coming with you?”
Feng Linbai replied, “It’s not good for too many men to go into your house. I’m just a patient and am just here to have a checkup. I don’t need him to follow me in. Besides…”
“He’s by my side to protect me but since Yu’er is here, what’s there to be afraid of?”
Jiang Yu thought for a moment and said, “That’s true.”
The two of them did nothing to hide their voices. Ke Yanbin had heard everything.
He remained silent.
Was he being shot even while squatting in the shadow?
As the two of them entered the Jiang family home, Jiang Yu heard a girl crying before she even reached the living room. “Big Brother, I never thought that Big Sister would treat me this way!”
Chapter 147: Why Does Big Sister Treat Me This Way
The girl sobbed, “I… How am I to go out and meet people anymore? If people find out, what will I ever do? How am I going to live?”
“I can’t take it. I feel so dirty and disgusting now… Big Brother, will you despise me too?”
“I really don’t know how I offended my big sister until she wishes to treat me in this way? If it’s because of what I said last time, I’ve already apologized. Isn’t that enough?”
“If my sister is still not satisfied, she can tell me. I’m willing to continue apologizing. I’ll kneel if I have to, or I can kowtow to her? She can scold me too, I won’t retaliate. Why would she deploy such despicable means against me?”
Jiang Chenglang advised, “Wan Wan, calm down.”
“No, Big Brother, I can’t calm down! This happened to my body. I can’t calm down!”
After some more shouting, she sighed again and said self-deprecatingly, “Big Brother, what did I do wrong? Is it because my surname isn’t Jiang? Is it because my blood is different from yours?”
“You’ve always said that we’re family, but only you guys are, I’m not. I know that you did your best to raise me because it’s what my father ordered. You treat me like a responsibility, not like a sister.”
“Like right now, I’ve been wronged, but you can still act so indifferent and ask me to calm down? Big Brother, do you think I’m being unreasonable? Do you think I’ve wronged my big sister?”
“That’s right. Big Sister is your biological sibling, so you’re closer to her even though we’ve been together for 12 years…”
Jiang Chenglang shook his head. “No, Wan Wan, I also think of you as my biological sister. It’s just that this matter…”
He didn’t finish his sentence as he was thinking about his next words.
Jiang Yu couldn’t help but walk in on them and ask, “Tell me, how did I treat you?”
As soon as she appeared, Jiang Wan immediately picked up a pillow and threw it at Jiang Yu but she easily blocked it with a wave of her hand.
Jiang Wan sobbed and said, “Why are you still pretending to be innocent? The person you hired trapped me at an intersection while I was shopping after school and he…”
Jiang Yu looked at Jiang Wan’s disheveled hair and the way she was covering her chest with her hands. Her eyes were red as if she had been frightened half to death.
Her pause left too much to the imagination. However, judging from Jiang Wan’s attitude, it wasn’t serious enough to ruin her innocence.
However, it was probably a similar kind of behavior that had given her such a big blow.
Jiang Yu asked, “Where’s your evidence?”
“Of course I have evidence. Otherwise, I wouldn’t accuse you without reason!” Jiang Wan retorted righteously.
She angrily took out a student ID, “Look, isn’t this your student ID? Those people bullied me and accidentally dropped it on the ground. I picked it up.”
“Big Sister, what else can you say? Why did your student ID appear on someone else’s body? Doesn’t it prove that you’re in cahoots with them?”
Jiang Yu looked at the student ID. Indeed, her name was on it and the school seal was printed on it as well. It couldn’t be a fake.
However, she slowly smiled.
Seeing the mocking smile on Jiang Yu’s lips, Jiang Wan’s heart skipped a beat.
