Chapter 1254 - 730: The Pig-Teammate’s Fatal Assist—Throwing Out Your Uncle (Part 3)
Jiang Jinsang didn’t even flinch and just said:
"You’re meddling too much."
Tang Yunxian seemed used to the banter and bickering between his brothers and thanked Jiang Chengsi for helping them carry stuff today.
"What are you saying? As an older brother, it’s my duty. We’re family; no need to mention thanks."
"You should be thanked. I have a few friends who are very interested in the Racing Club. They aren’t professionals and can probably only invest some money. If your club needs investment, I can help you ask around," Tang Yunxian said directly.
Jiang Chengsi glanced at Tang Wan and Jiang Jinsang; it must have been one of them who mentioned this.
Though they’re keeping him busy running back and forth, they definitely appreciate his efforts, and if something happens, they’ll think of him first.
"Then I’ll thank Uncle in advance." Jiang Chengsi felt like helping carry diapers and soothe kids was worth it.
After finishing the noodles, he willingly took on the task of washing dishes. Then he happily returned to his room, intending to share the news about possible investment in his club with Si Qingxiao, but he got a call from Qi Zeyan instead.
What’s up with this dude? I didn’t even call to bug him, worried I’d interrupt his fun, yet he calls me?
"Hello, Qiqi—"
"Jiang Chengsi, you’re trying to get me killed!"
Jiang Chengsi was confused, "What do you mean? I’m creating opportunities for you, giving you an assist, and you still scold me?"
"Who did you call?" Some people are indeed divine assists...
Some teammates are doomed to fail no matter what.
"Xiaoruan."
"Why did her dad come!" The person on the other end was seething.
"..."
Jiang Chengsi burst out laughing.
"You’re still laughing? Uncle came over and personally took me back to the hotel."
"Haha—" Jiang Chengsi couldn’t hold it, laughing wildly, making Qi Zeyan so mad that his face turned red from holding in his anger.
"No, seriously, what happened? I really called Xiaoruan, and I don’t even have Uncle Ruan’s contact info. How could I possibly contact him? What did he do to you? Did he scold you?"
"No, he just told me to drink less, didn’t say much else." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
Qi Zeyan originally planned to quietly make some moves without getting drunk, but seeing Ruan Daqiang appear sobered him up halfway. By the time he took him back to the hotel, he was almost completely sober.
"Qi Zeyan, you’re killing me with laughter. What’s up with you, oh my gosh—" Jiang Chengsi laughed so hard he almost passed out.
He could just imagine Qi Zeyan eagerly anticipating Ruan Mengxi, only to welcome his future father-in-law, and wondered what expression he had at that moment.
Qi Zeyan angrily hung up the phone but soon received a call from Ruan Mengxi.
She asked how he was feeling.
"Wasn’t Chengsi supposed to call you? How did Uncle end up coming?"
"When I was about to leave, I ran into my dad. Since I was going out so late, he knew I was going to find you, so he asked a few questions. I couldn’t hide it, so I told him you drank too much. He asked for the address and said he’d go get you..."
Qi Zeyan felt his head throbbing.
"Did my dad say anything to you?"
"No, just felt it was too much trouble for him so late."
Who knew how awkward the atmosphere was in Ruan Daqiang’s car.
Men probably don’t need to say much to guess each other’s thoughts. Although Ruan Daqiang didn’t say anything, it seemed like he saw right through him, leaving Qi Zeyan feeling frustrated.
Where does a father-in-law pick up his drunk son-in-law, Jiang Chengsi found it funnier the more he thought about it.
At the Tang Family’s old house, the soundproofing was already mediocre. Jiang Chengsi’s courtyard was right next to Jiang Jinsang and Tang Wan’s.
In the dead of night, someone’s sudden burst of laughter woke Jiang Xiaowai, the little one twisting and turning, feeling restless.
"What’s fourth brother doing so late?" Tang Wan soothing the child.
Jiang Jinsang was reviewing some business case studies from Tang Yunxian today, and hearing someone’s laughter, furrowed his brows:
"Maybe he forgot his meds."
"Fourth brother really has energy, but he’s making it hard for the child to sleep."
Tang Wan wanted Jiang Jinsang to say something, to tell someone to quiet down, but instead, Jiang Jinsang said, "I’ll text him."
Tang Wan wondered:
Fourth brother is always unpredictable; if you talk to him face-to-face, he might not listen. Will a text work?
Yet, after the message was sent, the next-door courtyard really quieted down.
"What did you say to fourth brother?"
"I told him if he continues, I’ll record his laughter and send it to Miss Si, so she can hear what her boyfriend is doing in the middle of the night."
