Chapter 1396: Chapter 800: To Win a Wife—Bold Moves and a Black Heart (Part 2)

Jiang Chengsi’s.

"Hello, brother, calling me at this hour? Aren’t you working? I just finished a meeting, your call is really timely..."

It was so quiet around that the voice from the other end of the receiver was heard by everyone in the room.

"Brother? Why aren’t you speaking?"

Jiang Chengsi frowned, what kind of problem is this, calling without speaking.

Lin Luyou was so angry she was glaring, how can someone be so heartless.

"Hmm, I’m here."

"Since you’re here, why didn’t you speak? Do you have any business calling me?"

"No."

Jiang Chengsi was exasperated, "If you have no business, why call me? I’m very busy... "

"Then keep being busy, I’m hanging up."

Before Jiang Chengsi could speak, the call was actually hung up.

On the other end, Jiang Chengsi was baffled, completely clueless about what happened? What’s going on, is he trying to deliberately annoy him? Last night, because of his brother, Si Qingxiao had "educated" him, and now today, he proactively provokes again?

What’s up with his brother lately?

If it were before, Jiang Chengsi would definitely be jumping with anger, but indeed he’s busy, being in Nanjiang, he can’t reach him, and arguing with him never works, so he can only focus on work again, not knowing he’s being used as a tool.

Lin Luyou is furious but doesn’t know what to say.

It’s not just Lin Luyou, even Tang Wan and others were stunned by someone’s operation.

Everyone knows Jiang Shiyi is dark-hearted, but didn’t expect him to pull such a stunt.

Actually, Jiang Jinsang had seen through it long ago, this team leader Lin can’t play against their third brother.

This team leader Lin is obviously thin-skinned, their third brother dares to openly say he’ll stay at their home, showing he is shameless...

When a person no longer cares for their face, how can you play with them?

Moreover, you can tell at a glance that this team leader Lin isn’t the type to plot and strategize, probably graduated and went straight into the lab, focused on her own projects, less intrigue, still too young...

Hasn’t experienced society’s harshness.

Just got played by their third brother.

She’s like a panicked fawn, while Jiang Shiyi is the experienced hunter, slowly luring her in, scheming and patient.

Jiang Jinsang besides lamenting about someone being too scheming, could only be helpless, this team leader Lin is too naive.

Until Zhou Zhongqing spoke, breaking the silence: "The menu is ready, Shiyi, take it, if anything is unclear, contact me anytime, I’ll reply once I see it."

"Thanks, Uncle Zhou."

Just then, someone knocked and entered, it was Zhou Zhongqing’s assistant, notifying him before the noon break that the afternoon surgery had a change in the operating room.

"Why the sudden change in the operating room?" Zhou Zhongqing took a pen and noted on a sticky note.

"A patient with a gastric ulcer sent in, massive bleeding upon arrival, directly sent to the OR." The assistant said, sensing a weird atmosphere in the office, feeling he didn’t say anything wrong.

...

Zhou Zhongqing looked at his watch, it was past eleven, his surgery at 2:30 PM, leaving little time to eat with the Tang Wan family.

"Don’t stay here, Shiyi, why don’t you and the girl join us for lunch?" Zhou Zhongqing took off his white coat and changed into casual wear, "I should tell you more about caring for gastric patients, what to watch for."

"You heard just now, gastric ulcer urgent care, don’t underestimate any small ailments."

Lin Luyou heeds doctor advice, and given Zhou Zhongqing’s invitation, she couldn’t refuse, only nodding in agreement.

The assistant dared not follow, claiming lab had other matters, leaving their own team leader behind, directly ghosting.

**

Restaurant booked by Jiang Jinsang, right by the hospital, a Huaiyang cuisine place with light dishes. Upon arriving, Tang Wan said she needed to feed the baby and change diapers, leaving the private room with Jiang Jinsang.

Leaving Zhou Zhongqing facing the two of them, feeling a bit awkward, he could only ask Lin Luyou about her gastric issues.

"Did it just start today or have you been uncomfortable lately?" Zhou Zhongqing asked, looking like a kind elder.

"The past two days, hard to eat, sometimes nauseous, extremely painful this morning, that’s why I came to the hospital..." Lin Luyou spoke while observing Jiang Shiyi.

He was holding a teacup, looking more and more unpleasant.

"Besides stomach pain, any other discomforts? If so, take this chance to recover, you’re young, recover quickly." Zhou Zhongqing smiled.

Jiang Shiyi however said, "No matter how good your health is, if you don’t cherish it, it won’t stand being abused."

"..."

Lin Luyou knew he was mad at her for not caring for herself, yet remained silent, leaving Zhou Zhongqing slightly helpless.

Previously never realized, the third of Jiang Family is quite sharp-tongued, at least give the girl a bit of face.

Tang Wan and Jiang Jinsang returned soon after, Jiang Xiaowai waving arms, wanting Jiang Shiyi to hold him, though he ignored, directly pouring tea for Tang Wan, "Sister-in-law, thank you for today."

Tang Wan smiled, "Third brother too polite, I didn’t help much, just happened to run into team leader Lin."

She assisted Lin Luyou, yet Jiang Shiyi thanked her, quite an intriguing relationship.

"Ah—" Jiang Xiaowai still waving, persistently seeking a hug.

Jiang Shiyi however turned away, completely indifferent.

Lin Luyou earlier humiliated, still sulking, seeing his behavior, her eyes glinting, "The child seems to want you to hold him."

"Does he?" Jiang Shiyi raised an eyebrow, his expression unchanged.

"Yes."

"You saw wrong."

"..." Lin Luyou more convinced, this child definitely seems to be Jiang Shiyi’s nemesis, "Are you afraid of kids? Afraid to hold him? You actually have something you’re scared of? That’s surprising, I thought you feared nothing."

Jiang Shiyi clenched the cup in his hand, glanced at Lin Luyou, "Your stomach doesn’t hurt anymore?"

"You’re really afraid of kids?" Lin Luyou, not dumb, tilted her head at Jiang Shiyi, seemingly discovering a new continent.

"Who says I’m afraid of kids?"

Jiang Shiyi isn’t afraid of kids, just thinks that little guy...

All that drool, tears, mucus, always rubbing on him, he can’t stand it.

But in front of Lin Luyou, can’t admit such a thing.

"Then hold him, the child keeps staring at you." Lin Luyou smiled innocently.

Jiang Shiyi was about to refuse when Jiang Jinsang already passed his son into his arms, his body instantly rigid, afraid the child might fall, reluctantly supporting his little bottom.

The little guy happily squirmed, shimmying towards him.

"Heh heh—" Giggles.

"Stop staring, order already." Zhou Zhongqing laughed.

Jiang Shiyi, not adept at holding kids, his technique awkward, stiff-necked, unwilling to glance at the little guy in his arms.

Until feeling his neck slobbered, Glenn got more agitated.

Lin Luyou sat next to Tang Wan, close together choosing food, still occasionally glancing at him, holding back her laughter, almost causing internal injury.

Jiang Shiyi glanced at Lin Luyou, took a deep breath, exhaled heavily.

"Ah ah—" The child easily moves around, Jiang Shiyi exerting full force to care for this little ancestor.

Disdain him, yet can’t toss him.

Jiang Jinsang never expected, his third brother, to save face in front of team leader Lin, even cured his cleanliness.

Indeed...

In front of a wife, cleanliness is worth nothing.
