Chapter 1537: Chapter 888: Looking for Trouble? Jiang Xiaosi Isn’t Thinking Straight (2 Updates)

When Qi Zeyan and Ruan Mengxi reached the Jiang Family and the Si Family’s table to toast, even from a distance, they could feel the atmosphere was strange.

As everyone raised their glasses to congratulate and send their blessings, their expressions seemed normal, yet you could also feel the undercurrents surging beneath.

Jiang Chengsi also moved his seat over.

He was still in a dazed state.

Isn’t it maddening? Those trying to get pregnant can’t succeed, yet here he is, who didn’t plan to have a child at all, and suddenly he’s a dad.

"Sir, Zeyan and I would like to toast you separately, for our wedding has troubled you in many ways." Ruan Mengxi pulled Qi Zeyan aside to toast Jiang Chengsi separately.

Because of her wedding, Jiang Chengsi not only ran around to be the best man but was also entangled with Yang Yiyi, causing quite a few issues, so Ruan Mengxi wanted to take this opportunity to thank and apologize to him with this toast.

"No need for formalities, though Zeyan and I aren’t related by blood, we’re still like family brothers."

Qi Zeyan took a deep breath, "If not for being family, who would give such a big gift at my wedding?"

"..."

"Now it’s good, people are not only wishing me a happy newlywed life but also congratulating my brother, saying it’s a double blessing."

Jiang Chengsi himself was about to go crazy; he could feel Si Yushan’s terrifying gaze, as if he wanted to tear him to pieces.

...

Sure enough, before the wedding banquet ended, Si Yushan gave him a look and then got up to leave. Jiang Chengsi quickly followed him outside.

Although the wedding was outdoors, and all the flower arrangements, red carpet, and chairs were still there, it was empty.

Si Yushan casually found a place to sit, while Jiang Chengsi stood beside him, not daring to take a seat.

Si Yushan was not a stubborn and inflexible person, seeing Jiang Chengsi’s expression, he realized he had just learned the news, as shocked as he was. He certainly wanted to hold him accountable, maybe beat him up first.

But his back was still subtly aching, and he feared it might give way if he moved brusquely again.

He could only endure it.

"Uncle, I’m sorry, this is my fault." Jiang Chengsi, although unprepared, knew he at least needed to have the right attitude, "Rest assured, I will definitely take responsibility for Xiaoxiao."

"If you don’t take responsibility, are you planning to run away?"

"You know that’s not what I meant." Jiang Chengsi’s heart was pounding, the hot wind making him sweat.

"How do you plan to take responsibility?"

"Marry her, I will take care of her and the child, but..." Jiang Chengsi lowered his head, "it still depends on you, Aunt, and Xiaoxiao’s wishes."

Si Yushan sighed, "I wasn’t ready to become a grandfather."

"To be honest... I wasn’t ready to be a dad either."

"What’s the use of telling me this now, the child is already here." Si Yushan wished he could kick him, but it wasn’t the time or place. If someone saw them, it would just become a laughingstock for both families.

"Uncle, it’s all my fault, please don’t blame Xiaoxiao."

"Now, whatever I say doesn’t matter, think carefully about how to handle this matter."

"This matter still depends on Xiaoxiao’s attitude, no matter what decision she makes, I have no problem with it, and I will certainly marry her..." Getting married and having a child isn’t just his decision.

Not to mention the problems that come with pregnancy and childbirth, there are potential risks, possibilities of losing shape, or postpartum depression; it’s not something where he can be unilateral about the decision.

The crucial point is whether Si Qingxiao wants to or not.

Si Yushan certainly knows, blaming him now won’t help, he just felt a bit vexed inside.

He had warned him repeatedly not to bring a child into this, yet what you fear sometimes becomes reality.

Now it seems both kids are quite frightened, there’s no need to further intimidate them. Saying they don’t want the child, he couldn’t bring himself to say it; some matters require a more casual approach, leaving it to fate.

"Alright, let’s go back in, you discuss this matter with your family, and I’ll also need to ask for Xiaoxiao’s opinion. It’s not a small matter." Si Yushan let out a heavy sigh.

Jiang Chengsi had prepared himself to take a scolding from his future father-in-law, yet Si Yushan didn’t hit him, leaving him feeling a little uneasy inside.

For something this big to just end with a few words? Without hitting him?

"Uncle."

"Hmm?"

"Would you like to kick me a couple of times?"

Si Yushan raised an eyebrow: What kind of request is that?

Is this kid so shaken that he lost his wits?

Could his daughter really have found a fool?

Right now, Si Yushan wasn’t worried about Si Qingxiao’s belly; he was worried about the child in her belly, taking after their father—
