Chapter 43: fifth uncle’s gentleness is scary
Translator: 549690339
in the rainy night, the street lights were a little dim, and she was standing under an umbrella, so she couldn’t see very clearly. At this time, Shi Yan looked at the person under the umbrella again and saw that she was calm and elegant.
so, it was just her imagination when she saw him smile?
!!
Also, words like ” you’re very beautiful today ” were not something that a gentle and reserved person like him could say. It was too straightforward.
but he did, and she liked it!
Then she didn’t care if it sounded like what he would say. she didn’t seem like someone who would take the initiative to chase after someone. didn’t she change after meeting him?
“Thank you,” she looked at him and smiled gently.
The two of them looked at each other in silence for a few seconds before Shi Yan softly shouted, ” “mr. jiang.”
he looked at her.
The gentle and dignified beauty, even if she smiled brightly, was still reserved. She said, nothing, I just wanted to tell you to be careful on the road and to send me a message when you arrive.
he seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then gently replied, ” “alright,” he said.
shi yan smiled at him again, then turned around and walked into the courtyard.
jiang che only turned to leave after shi yan disappeared from his sight.
“come out.” he stopped at the corner.
Jiang Rui and Jiang Heng, who were hiding in the corner, shivered and kept comforting themselves that they were not being called. but when that person glanced over, the two of them could no longer deceive themselves.
One pushed the other and came out from the corner, trembling.
“Fifth uncle,”
“Fifth, fifth uncle.”
compared to jiang heng, jiang rui was relatively calm. after all, she had seen the slight difference in how jiang che treated shi yan a few days ago, so she could be considered to have seen the world.
“it’s still raining so late at night, why are you here? He didn’t bring an umbrella.”
He was clearly saying words of concern and his tone was very gentle, but the two of them felt their scalps go numb.
It wasn’t that Jiang che was usually fierce to them. On the contrary, ever since Jiang che moved into the Jiang family’s old residence, he had been extremely gentle to people during the few times they had met.
But they were afraid of him!
it was mainly because she had heard a lot of rumors about him and knew a lot of major events related to him. she knew that he was not as gentle and harmless as he seemed on the surface.
” jiang heng and i were a bit hungry, so we went to the kitchen to eat something. when we came back, we didn’t take an umbrella because it wasn’t raining. unexpectedly, it started to rain again on the way back. we have to take this road from the main building to our own courtyard! ”
Jiang Rui’s explanation was so desperate that she almost wrote ” we were just passing by and didn’t mean to eavesdrop ” on her head.
“fifth, fifth uncle, have you eaten?” jiang heng felt that he was stupid when he asked the question. what kind of stupid question was he asking? Every day, the kitchen would send food to the bamboo garden on time. It was already so late, how could fifth uncle not have eaten!
Jiang Heng was already prepared to receive a sharp gaze, but he heard the other party say, ” “i’ve eaten.”
she actually answered him! and his tone was so gentle!
could it be that the rumors were wrong, and fifth uncle was actually not that scary?
it’s still raining, ” Jiang che said. go back early.
“oh, oh.”
not to mention jiang heng, even jiang rui was a little confused.
although fifth uncle treated people gently, was he the kind of person who would casually speak out and show concern for others? In any case, fifth uncle had lived in the old residence for three years. She had never seen fifth uncle so gentle and concerned about anyone, even though she had only seen him a few times.
Before they could think further, Jiang che had already left with the umbrella.
Only when his figure completely disappeared from sight did Jiang Heng speak in a panic, ” ” sis, did we misunderstand fifth uncle in the past? he doesn’t seem to be as scary as the rumors say. ”
“naive!” jiang rui was shocked.
Jiang Heng wasn’t stupid. He also felt that he was quite naive to have such an idea.
“let’s not talk about this. sister, what happened? who was that girl just now? what was her relationship with fifth uncle? Fifth uncle’s health wasn’t good, and it was raining at night, but he still personally sent her back! I just went on a trip for a few days. Why do I feel like the world has changed when I come back?”
Jiang Rui was also very surprised.
it was well known that fifth uncle’s health was not good. he spent most of his time recuperating in the courtyard and rarely left the courtyard. even if he did leave the courtyard occasionally, he would mostly use a wheelchair. but now, not only did he go out on a rainy night, he didn’t even sit in a wheelchair!
Is he going to give up his body for Yan?
no, no, no, that shouldn’t be the case.
if she knew that seeing her fifth uncle off on a rainy night would make his already weak body even worse, yan would never let him do it. She wasn’t targeting her fifth uncle. She knew that Yan wouldn’t do such a thing, no matter who the person who gave her the gift was.
So, fifth uncle’s health was actually not as bad as it looked?
at the thought of this, jiang rui suddenly stopped her brain from thinking further.
no matter what, this was not something she should be concerned about.
“that courtyard, eh, eh, eh, isn’t it said that grandmother’s guests are staying in the small courtyard next to grandmother’s courtyard? could it be that the girl just now was miss shi yan, the one who saved grandmother?”
Jiang Rui retracted her thoughts and glanced at Jiang Heng.”Looks like you’re not too stupid after all.”
as if she had seen through some big secret, she still had a little lingering fear.
“So it’s really awkward.” Jiang Heng took a deep breath.”Then what’s going on with miss Shi Yan and fifth uncle? They knew each other?”
“that’s not it.”
Jiang Heng’s eyes widened in surprise,’in other words, they only met after miss Shi Yan came to our house? but how long had it been? why were they already so familiar with each other? Did miss Shi Yan accidentally enter fifth uncle’s Bamboo Garden and get to know him?”
“You might not believe it, but they met in the courtyard.”
Jiang Heng didn’t believe it.
the number of times fifth uncle left bamboo garden in a year could be counted on one hand. most of the time, fifth uncle would leave directly by car and rarely met with the people from the old residence. How could it be such a coincidence to meet Shi Yan, who had just moved into the old house?
Could this be the so-called fate?
“Forget it, forget it. We don’t dare to ask about fifth uncle’s matters. Sister, let’s go, let’s go. If we don’t go, we’re going to be drenched.
with his reminder, jiang rui finally realized that her clothes were all wet.
“It’s good that you think this way. It’s better if we don’t ask about fifth uncle’s matters.”
after a pause, jiang rui said,”but yan is involved with fifth uncle, will she be embarrassed?”
“sister, what did you say?” The rain was a little heavy, so Jiang Heng didn’t hear her clearly.
“Nothing, nothing. Let’s go.”
jiang heng raised his hand to cover his head and jogged back to his courtyard. ” “sister, if i remember correctly, grandmother’s savior is from the countryside, right? but no matter how i look at her, she doesn’t look like someone from the countryside. her looks are given by her parents, and no one says that country bumpkins can’t give birth to beautiful daughters, but her temperament really doesn’t look like a country girl.”
“is yan’s temperament inborn? Why do you have to judge whether you’re from the countryside by your temperament? how can you be so shallow?”
Jiang Rui had forgotten that she had the same doubts as Jiang Heng in the beginning.
” it does seem shallow of me to think this way. but sister, do you dare to say that you didn’t have the same thoughts as me when you first met miss shi yan? ”
“no!”
“Alright, I’ll pretend to believe you.”
jiang rui glared at him in the rain.
“Sister, I can tell that you have a good relationship with miss Shi Yan,” he added.
“Do I need you to tell me that?”
……
after returning to the house, shi yan didn’t go upstairs immediately. instead, she sat on the sofa in the living room with her chin in her hands and stared at the pastry box on the pure wood coffee table, laughing.
her mind was filled with jiang che’s words,”you’re very beautiful today.”
it seemed that her meticulous dressing up today had not been in vain.
then he would continue to work hard!
it just so happened that she had something to send him tomorrow.
As he was thinking, his phone on the coffee table vibrated.
it was a message from jiang che.
Mr. Jiang: [ I’m here. Ms. Shi, rest early. Good night. ]
[ mr. jiang, good night. ]
After laughing for a while with her phone in her hand, Shi Yan got up and went upstairs to wash up and sleep. Before she went upstairs, she found a place in the kitchen to carefully put the cakes.
