Chapter 900: Chapter 542: Recruiting Allies, Surrounded by Werewolves
In the height of summer, just past ten in the morning, Jiang Chengsi got out of the car feeling the steaminess of the hot air. The hospital’s air conditioning was too cold, and the alternating hot and cold made him sneeze several times in a row.
When he arrived at the ward, only Jiang Jinsang and Huo Qinqi were there. The room had been tidied up, with the blanket folded as neatly as a block of tofu. One glance and you could tell whose handiwork it was.
"Just you two?" Jiang Chengsi asked.
One had a jacket draped over his lap, flipping through a magazine, while the other...
Was playing Minesweeper.
"Aunt went with Grandma to Uncle Zhou for a check-up, Wanwan and Grandpa also went out for something." Jiang Jinsang closed the magazine, eyeing Jiang Chengsi, "What did you do early this morning? Why are you dressed like that?"
All in tight black clothes, completely unlike his style. In the summer at home, his standard outfit was a white T-shirt, big shorts, and slippers. Even when going out, it would be casual wear. How did it end up looking like he was in nighttime attire?
Huo Qinqi looked him up and down: "Dressed like a thief."
"Go to hell, I’m just gonna go wash my face." Jiang Chengsi had been wearing a wig, sweating profusely, and the air conditioning dried the sweat, leaving his face feeling sticky.
When he came out, Jiang Jinsang handed him a bound document, "This is the house we picked for Grandpa before, see if there’s a suitable one."
"I knew you were efficient." Jiang Chengsi took the file, quickly flipping through it, "I want to choose a place a bit further from Hexi, preferably heading east..."
"Away from Hexi?" Huo Qinqi raised his brows at him.
In our small circle, aside from Jiang Jinsang, Qi Zeyan lives in the city center, the rest are concentrated in Hexi, yet someone wants to be far from there?
"East?" Jiang Jinsang tapped his fingers lightly on his knee, "The ones I picked for Grandpa are all close to Hexi, or near where I live, probably none that meet your criteria. What’s up with you two? Want to stay far from your third brother?"
"Don’t bring it up, you don’t know what happened earlier this morning, it was even more thrilling than a roller coaster ride." Jiang Chengsi closed the file, "If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, heard it with my own ears, I wouldn’t know my brother could be so double-standarded!"
"I always thought he was just like that, treating everyone the same, turns out it’s not so..."
"He just looks down on a foolish little brother like me."
Jiang Jinsang smiled, "What exactly happened?"
"Remember Team Leader Lin from the laboratory? Xiaowu should have a deep impression, she’s the cool lady who did the drug test for sister-in-law."
When Jiang Chengsi mentioned the double-standard, Jiang Jinsang had already guessed a bit, just nodded with a smile.
"I’ve been busy with the club recently, had no idea my brother changed jobs and became her colleague. The relationship between these two, it really is..." Jiang Chengsi was momentarily speechless, there were so many twists that he didn’t know where to begin.
"You finally noticed?" Jiang Jinsang smiled at him.
"You two don’t know, the way my brother talks to her, you could describe it as gentle and watery. Every time he talks to me, he’s like an emotionless machine." Jiang Chengsi was about to continue complaining, then realized, "Wait a minute..."
"Jiang Xiaowu, what do you mean by that?"
"What do you mean by ’finally,’ don’t tell me you..." already knew.
Jiang Jinsang just chuckled, "I’ve long witnessed his double standards."
"You didn’t even tell me?"
"You live under the same roof, I assumed with your intelligence, you would’ve noticed long ago."
"..."
This left Jiang Chengsi speechless, he definitely couldn’t admit he was dumb.
Originally intending to complain to Jiang Jinsang, he didn’t expect...
Brothers who grew up together, he knew exactly what kind of temperament and sly manipulations someone would have, it was all clearly on purpose.
"Old Huo, listen to the way he talks..." Jiang Chengsi turned to Huo Qinqi, planning to recruit an ally to complain about Jiang Jinsang’s sly maneuvers, "Can’t you say something for me?"
"Do you want the truth or something fabricated?" Huo Qinqi shifted his gaze from the Minesweeper game.
"Of course the truth."
"I knew as well."
"..."
Jiang Jinsang watched as Jiang Chengsi’s face turned pale to green, and then flushed red, wishing he could smash the dog heads of the two in front of him.
He took a breath, instinctively raised his voice, "You two..."
But before he could finish, a knocking sound came from outside, and a nurse poked her head in, "Sorry to interrupt, but this is a hospital, please try to control your volume when speaking, thank you."
Jiang Chengsi: "..."
Only after the nurse left did he glare angrily at Huo Qinqi, "Jiang Xiaowu is one thing, but how did you know? You’re not even close with my brother? You guys wouldn’t even meet privately."
