Fang Yuchen smiled. “Are you two…”He chose his words carefully, “Are you two available right now?”Jiang Sese nodded. “Yes.”“Then come with me, I would like you to meet someone.”Fang Yuchen then turned around.“Let's head over too,” said Jiang Sese.Jin Fengchen turned to look. He saw Fang Yuchen walk toward a man, say something to him, and the two looked over at them simultaneously.“Fengchen, what’s wrong?” asked Jiang Sese when she saw that he stopped moving.“It’s nothing. Let’s go over,” said Jin Fengchen as he took her hand.“Alright.”Seeing Jin Fengchen and Jiang Sese approaching, Shangguan Qian straightened his tie. When they reached him, he extended his right hand. “Chairman Jin, I’m Shangguan Qian.”“Nice to meet you.” Jin Fengchen shook his hand.“Hello, Missus Jin.” Shangguan Qian nodded toward Jiang Sese.Jiang Sese responded with a generous smile. “Nice to meet you.”“Mister Shangguan is the host of tonight’s charity banquet. The Shangguan family and the
“I would not let him off that easily too,” said Jiang Sese icily.Everyone in the Fang family, be they Fang Yiming, Fang Yanxin, or Fang Yuchen, were praised by others.Only Fang Yanqin was ‘different’.There was no lack of scandals surrounding him. From female celebrities to models, the women around him were always different.He was the perfect depiction of the hedonistic son of wealthy parents.An idea suddenly flashed in Jiang Sese’s mind.She immediately felt amused and laughed softly.Jin Fengchen glanced at her and saw that she was giggling foolishly. The laughter infected him as well as he smiled and asked, “What’s so funny?”“I thought of a way to teach Fang Yanqin a lesson,” she said.“Oh?” Jin Fengchen arched his eyebrows. “How so?”“It's…”Jiang Sese was about to reveal her plan but paused and immediately changed her words. “You will know when the time comes. I won't tell you now.”He did not expect her to say that. Jin Fengchen was obviously stunned, but he quic
“Just a little misunderstanding?”Fang Xueman did not believe it.Based on what she knew about her brother and sister-in-law, they would never have come in person to apologize if it was merely a misunderstanding.Not unless it was something much more serious.“It’s just a misunderstanding, Mother,” Jiang Sese said as she smiled helplessly.In order to prevent her mother from asking further, she said, “They only came to apologize because I’m part of the Jin family, and Jin Fengchen’s wife.”Only then did Fang Xueman make the connection.It was indeed something her brother and sister-in-law would do, solely just to not offend the Jin family. “Are you sure you aren’t lying to me?” Fang Xueman stared suspiciously at Jiang Sese.Jiang Sese smiled and hugged her shoulders. “Why would I lie to you?”“Of course you would lie to me.” Fang Xueman gave her an exasperated stare.Although her lies were meant for her not to worry, as a mother, she still hoped that her daughter would not
Jiang Sese could not help but feel a little sad, “I… How are you?”No matter what he did, in her heart, he would always be her family.“Not good. Not good at all.”She did not know what to say.Fu Jingyun chuckled lightly, “However, I’m fine as long as you’re fine.”Jiang Sese’s heart could not help but ache. She took a deep breath and held back her tears. She smiled and said, “I'm fine, don't worry.”“That's good.”They both fell silent after that.After a long moment, Jiang Sese finally said, “Go back and see your parents if you can. They’re really worried.”“I know. Tell Jin Fengchen if he can't take care of you, I will take over.”Jiang Sese broke into a smile. “Don't worry, he’ll take care of me.”Fu Jingyun looked out the window at the night sky with a sad expression. “That’s all then. Goodbye.”Before Jiang Sese could react, he had hung up.He slowly lowered his head, a bitter smile forming on the corner of his lips.He and Sese had drifted further and further apar
“What happened?”Fang Yanxin rushed in when he heard the noise and saw the broken glass on the floor. He then saw his brother and father confronting each other and frowned.Fang Rui saw his eldest son and slightly suppressed his anger. “Your brother is too pigheaded and refuses to repent.”‘Pigheaded and refuses to repent.’Those words triggered Fang Yanqin’s anger and he exploded. “What nonsense are you talking about? It’s not like I killed anyone!”Seeing that another argument was about to ensue, Fang Yanxin shouted, “Enough! Ah Qin, shut up.”Fang Yanqin clenched his fists; his expression was that of reluctance.He merely had some indecent thoughts. He never actually managed to do anything to Jiang Sese.Fang Yanxin looked at his father and then at his younger brother before slowly speaking, “Ah Qin, I know you feel wronged. However, you are really in the wrong regarding this matter…”“You too, Brother?” Fang Yanqin interrupted.Fang Yanxin raised his hand and gestured for
Jiang Sese headed downstairs and could not help but smile when she saw Xiaobao and Tiantian watching cartoons in the living room. Then, she headed into the kitchen.Shang Ying was busy preparing dinner.“Aunty, let me help you.”Jiang Sese approached and looked around. She said she wanted to help, but did not know where to start.Seeing that she was at a loss, Shang Ying smiled and said, “It’s alright. You may call them over for dinner.”Jiang Sese turned around and left awkwardly. At this time, Fang Teng and Fang Yuchen had just returned.“Uncle. Cousin,” greeted Jiang Sese. She then called the two little ones over, “Xiaobao, Tiantian, greet your uncle and granduncle.”Fang Teng and Fang Yuchen did not expect to see two little children there and were very surprised.“Grand Uncle. Uncle,” greeted Xiaobao and Tiantian obediently.“Such a good boy and girl,” Fang Teng touched their heads lovingly.Fang Yuchen picked Tiantian up affectionately and asked, “Did you miss me, Tianti
Fang Yuchen scoffed, “Fang Yanqin, you really are a piece of work!”He said it with a heavy emphasis on the last three words.Fang Yanqin blushed. “I… I was drunk and thought she was someone else.”His stammering made Jiang Sese laugh. “You called my name, and now you are saying that you were drunk?”“I…” Fang Yanqin still wanted to object.“Shut up! You’re here to apologize, not give these excuses,” reprimanded Fang Yanxin.“Brother!”Fang Yanxin ignored his disgruntled expression and glanced at Jin Fengchen, who was still wearing his rage, from the corner of his eye, and continued, “No matter what your reasons for doing such a thing, you’re in the wrong. You’d better beg for Sese’s forgiveness.”He constantly signaled Fang Yanqin with his eyes as he said this.The latter could only suppress the unwillingness in his heart and lowered his head reluctantly, “Cousin, I'm sorry. Please forgive me.”How could Jiang Sese accept such an unwilling apology?She stared blankly at the
Shang Ying really felt so sorry for Jiang Sese that her eyes teared up.Jiang Sese could only comfort her repeatedly and told her that she was okay.“If something like this happens again, you must tell us as soon as possible. We will definitely stand up for you!” Shang Ying grasped her hand tightly.“I will,” nodded Jiang Sese.A perfectly good dinner was ruined by the appearance of the Fang brothers.The next day, Jiang Sese and Shang Ying took the two children to the hospital.On the way, Jiang Sese reminded, “Youngest Aunt, please don't tell my mother about the incident.”“I know. Even if you didn’t remind me, I would never tell her,” said Shang Ying as she patted the back of her hand.“Thank you, Youngest Aunt.”Shang Ying pretended to be cross and glared at her. “There you go thanking me again.”Jiang Sese just smiled then remained silent the rest of the journey.At the hospital, a wide and pleasant smile formed on Fang Xueman’s pale face when she saw Xiaobao and Tianti
