Chapter 542: 346 Wanwan'’s Request: Auntie, I'm counting on you (3 updates)

Jiang Jinsang went to the Hospital for his routine follow-up that day, and Zhou Zhongging asked about his daily

diet and whether he had any discomfort, then arranged for him to undergo several checks. Staring at his medical

report for a long time,

his brows furrowing tighter and tighter.

"Uncle Zhou, is there a problem?" Jiang Jinsang noticed something was amiss with his expression and thought

there might be something wrong with his health.

Even though it was just a brief moment, he was keenly aware of it.

"It's nothing, you can go home. | have a meeting to attend in a bit, so | won't have tto keep you company."

Zhou Zhongqing smiled, "How has Wanwan been lately? Every t| call her, it's always rushed. It's good for a

girl to be career-oriented, but you should also advise her not to overstretch herself. Money can’t be earned in

one lifetime."

"I know."

After leaving the Hospital, Jiang Jinsang sat in his car, still pondering over what had just happened with Zhou

Zhonggqing’s reaction. He felt that his recovery was going very well, but Zhou Zhongging'’s expression suggested

otherwise?

As he was leaving, Zhou Zhongqing’s assistant looked at the report for a long time, "Teacher, all of Master

Jinsang'’s indicators are normal. Is there a problem?"

"I didn’t say there was a problem." Zhou Zhongqing was preparing the materials he needed for the upcoming

meeting.

"Then that expression of yours just now..."

"I'm just surprised. The guy has recovered too quickly." It was totally beyond Zhou Zhongging’s expectations.

He had originally thought that with a congenital condition, even if one could avoid lying in bed for a year or so, it

would still require at least six months of convalescence. However, the recovery was astonishingly swift.

The assistant laughed, "The surgery went smoothly, Master Jinsang is young, and being newly married is a joyful

event. All of these are very important. | saw Master Jinsang leaving just now with a somewhat solemn

expression. He must have been overthinking..."

"Is that so?" Zhou Zhongqing had been looking at the report and hadn't noticed any abnormality.

"Yes." The assistant nodded.

"Then I'll give him a call."

For overly intelligent and sensitive people like Jiang Jinsang, even a slight deviation in others’ behavior could

lead to overanalysis. Initially, he hadn't thought much of it, but after Zhou Zhongging made a special call to tell

him, "You're truly fine, don’t overthink," he really started to overthink.

Wisdom taken to an extrcould result in harm; excessive cleverness may lead to a short life. This saying has

persisted through tfor a reason; sometimes, being overly smart and alert isn't necessarily a good thing.

When he arrived at the old mansion, seeing the car parked in the yard, he knew who had come, "Old Huo."

"You don’t look very well."

"It might be because the smell of the Hospital wasn’t very pleasant. | feel a bit off."

He couldn’t have brought another pile of books with him, "Bringingmore books?"

"I've been a bit busy lately and didn’t prepare anything. If you like, | will send slater."

"Busy with decorating your marital home. | haven't even read the books you sent last time." At this rate, he

would soon empty out a bookstore with his gifting.

One of them didn’t talk much, and Jiang Jinsang was still contemplating Zhou Zhongqing’s reaction, not in the

mood for chatting. When Tang Wan returned in the evening, she saw two men, one bathed in the sunset’s glow,

the other lost in thought, surprisingly harmonious together.

During dinner, Tang Wan even made a point of carrying over a cup of tea, "Big brother Huo, | haven't thanked

you for helping my aunt the other day."

That night at the Huo Family’s dinner, nobody mentioned the incident with the startled horse, so Tang Wan

hadn’t had the chance to express her gratitude.

"It’s all right, that’s what I should do."

"A rescue? What happened?" The old lady sitting at the side didn’t quite understand.

"Last twe had dinner at Big Brother Huo’s house, my aunt almost fell over. Thankfully, Big Brother Huo

stepped in in time, or there could have been an accident." Tang Wan lightly touched on the subject.

"Oh, that." The old lady smiled, "Shuci is now living in Hexi. | mentioned to Yanting and Chengsi recently to keep

an eye on her as they are living close by."

"Yanting isn’t in Beijing, and that boy Chengsi is used to being lax. I'm afraid my words are in one ear and out the

other."

Recently, Jiang Chengsi was busy participating in Racing Car competitions. When he cback home, he had to

deal with Jiang Shiyi’s strictness, living with someone a bit obsessive-compulsive. He was going crazy himself, let

alone having tto look after Shen Shuci.

The old lady smiled: "Look at my memory, the Huo Family is also over that way. When you have time, help look

after her a bit. A girl, just returned to the country, unfamiliar with everything, living alone outside, I'm rather

worried."

"Mm." He nodded in agreement.

With the old lady’s request, it seemed somewhat difficult to refuse.

In China, these courteous expressions are common, such as asking to keep an eye on one’s child, entrusting

one’s child to someone else’s care—but mostly they were just pleasantries that no one took seriously. Tang Wan

just listened and didn’t take it to heart.

After dinner, they made a phone call to Shen Shuci.

"Haven't you returned hyet? Why is it so loud around you?"

"I'm at a dinner." Shen Shuci wasn’t quite accustomed to such occasions. It was described as a dinner, but with

all the new and old employees present, it was almost exclusively flattery towards the leadership.

"Where are you eating? Why is it so noisy?"

"Finished eating, at a wholesale KTV near the office."

"When will it end?"

"Not sure, just got here, probably another two or three hours, | guess."

"You okay getting hby yourself? Have you been drinking?"

"Had a little."

"Then be careful when you're outside, and try not to drink too much."

Shen Shuci nodded, but as the new employee, it was hard to continuously refuse when leaders offered a toast,

inevitably leading to a couple of drinks.

After hanging up the phone, Tang Wan still felt uneasy. Shen Shuci was younger than her, a newcomer to society.

Having started her own business and with Tang Yunxian also in the business world, she knew all too well that

neither the business nor the work environment was clean.

She wasn't a heavy drinker, and even with her good reflexes, a few drinks would knock her out, and there was no

guarantee that nothing bad would happen.

"If you're worried, | can have Jiang Cuo pick her up later," said Jiang Jinsang, sitting beside Tang Wan.

But before Tang Wan could speak, the man sitting across from them stood up, "I'm actually heading home

myself, giveher address and I'll pick her up."

"That would be too much trouble for you." Though Tang Wan said so, she felt pleased.

"It’s on the way." They were both in Hexi, so surely more convenient than Tang Wan's place.

"She said it was a KTV near the office, should I ask which one?"

"No need."

"Huh?"

"There's only one KTV near her office."

Everyone: "..."

The Huo family was scared silly:

Oh my goodness, sire, we have to be more careful with our words.

There's even self-disclosure!

Jiang Jinsang crossed his legs and stroked his chin, looking at him leisurely, "Old Huo, how do you know there's

only one KTV there?"

"I'm familiar with that area."

It was his speaking style, pretty hardcore. That was his turf, and he certainly knew it well.

"Then I'll trouble you, and if you pick her up, givea call or send a message, I'm counting on you, Auntie."

Tang Wan was truly grateful to him, going downstairs herself, and kept thanking him.

She watched the Huo family’s impressive car drive away before turning to Jiang Jinsang with a smile, "Brother

Huo really is a good person."

"Good in what way?" Jiang Jinsang felt something was off.

But he was also the kind, the coldest monster with the softest heart, so it seemed normal for him to agree to do

such a thing.

"Brother Huo may seem cold, but he’s actually a very nice person. When you were in the hospital, if you think

about it, he spent the most tthere."

"Because during that time, he was on vacation and had the most free time."

Jiang Jinsang stubbornly read a pile of books every day because of the divorce-related books he sent, he had

received Tang Yunxian’s cold stares.

"Don’t view him through colored glasses, | think you're a bit biased against Brother Huo."

"That's because you don’t know him well."

Jiang Jinsang was taken aback; she had a point.

As friends, there's naturally a range and measure to it. Anything more wasn’t necessary for her to understand or

manage.

Whether it’s friends, family, or lovers, having a sense of measure is very important.
