Chapter 1486: Chapter 856: Wedding Eve Fiascos, Major Face-Slapping Scene (Part 2)

At this time, Pingjiang was going through the plum rain season with hot and humid weather. Jiang Chengsi’s door was open when Jiang Jinsang came over holding Jiang Xiaowai and overheard him talking to someone, assuming he was on a phone call, so he didn’t knock but instead took a couple of tentative steps inside.

Unexpectedly, it wasn’t a phone call, but a video call with Si Qingxiao, so he found a spot out of the camera’s view to sit down.

He poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, and since the tea was warm, he brought it to Jiang Xiaowai’s mouth. The little guy sniffed it and turned his head away disdainfully.

"...Tomorrow, after the wedding here ends, I’ll head back early the day after tomorrow, and the day after that, our families can meet up." Jiang Chengsi seemed to be a bit nervous about this, "You don’t need to worry about the meeting; I’ll pick you all up when the time comes."

"Alright." Si Qingxiao had no idea someone had come into Jiang Chengsi’s room, "Remember to take lots of photos tomorrow."

"Why don’t we do a video call so I can show you the scene."

"I have to go out tomorrow to deal with some issues."

The matter Si Qingxiao mentioned was concerning the You Family. You Hongxian came by a few days ago, saying the company was going bankrupt and liquidating, and the You Family’s assets also needed to be divided.

Currently, the You Family only officially consists of You Hongxian and You Yunzhi. Si Qingxiao’s grandparents had only one son and one daughter, and aside from shares in the company, when they passed away, they did leave things to both You Yunzhi and Si Qingxiao. Since relations weren’t strained before, and the Si Family lacked nothing, there was naturally no need to keep things too precise.

Now that You Hongxian actively wants the liquidation, You Yunzhi has no reason to refuse, so they proceed with legal procedures, hire a lawyer, and divide the assets thoroughly under the notary’s witness.

Consider it as wrapping everything up.

The appointed time is tomorrow.

Jiang Chengsi didn’t delve into what she was going to do, just holding his phone, asked her:

"Xiaoxiao..."

"Hmm?"

"Have you missed me?"

Jiang Chengsi spoke frankly, but Jiang Jinsang, sitting in the room, raised an eyebrow:

There’s a living person here; can you be a bit mindful?

Si Qingxiao, unaware that someone was in his room, had done more intimate things privately, naturally becoming sweeter, and with slightly red ears, responded softly.

"Me too. It’s only been a few days since we last met, but it feels like ages; one day without seeing you is like three autumns passing. How many autumns have we been apart now..."

Jiang Jinsang never realized that someone could be so cheesy and sentimental in private conversations.

Back when he was in school writing essays, he never saw him use so many idioms in a single sentence.

Jiang Jinsang couldn’t stand it, coughed lightly to remind him to be more mindful.

Si Qingxiao heard a cough that didn’t belong to Jiang Chengsi and tensed up, "You...someone in your room?"

"Xiaowu and my nephew." Jiang Chengsi replied casually, "Ignore them; let’s continue."

"..."

Si Qingxiao, unlike someone with such thick skin, was too embarrassed to continue the video call and quickly ended it, her face turning bright red.

Jiang Chengsi sighed and looked at Jiang Jinsang not far away, "So late at night, what are you doing in my room?"

"You’re so cheesy."

"When you were with your wife, you were even cheesier than me, weren’t you? Back when you lived at the Tang Family you didn’t pull off fewer stunts, did you?"

"Was I?" Jiang Jinsang smirked lightly.

"You’re cheesier than I am."

"No wonder Big Brother kicked you out of the group."

"..."

There’s not much entertainment at the Tang Family’s old house, so Jiang Chengsi took the opportunity to consult with Jiang Jinsang on what to pay attention to when meeting both families’ parents.

Someone even pulled out a notebook to start taking notes.

Jiang Jinsang simply mentioned some things like making sure to know one’s limits and being sweet-tongued, all very clichéd advice.

"Can you say something more practical, like what should I specifically pay attention to? Or any good advice?"

What Jiang Jinsang said before is known by everyone. Search online, and there are tons of these.

Jiang Jinsang pursed his lips, "Actually, you only need to pay attention to two things: First, watch what you say..."

"Second, stay steady, don’t be reckless."

"..."

Jiang Chengsi was exasperated and amused, what’s that supposed to mean, saying that he’s usually reckless, angering him enough to almost kick someone and his son out.

Indeed, a naughty younger brother is still naughty, can’t change now.

**

Early the next morning,

Though it wasn’t the Tang Family hosting the celebration, everyone had to attend the wedding, so they all got up relatively early.

Especially Jiang Chengsi; as the best man, he received a call from Qi Zeyan before dawn, nearly driving him crazy, since Jiang Jinsang and his son stayed at his place for a long time last night, and yet, before the rooster crowed, he was awakened by the call.
