Chapter 145: 124 This man: his appearance, his build, every bit is tempting_2 Chapter 145: 124 This man: his appearance, his build, every bit is tempting_2 Tang Wan thought back to it, and still felt somewhat frightened, his body was really chillingly cold.

As she was reminiscing about last night, her wrist was suddenly lifted by someone. Before she could even react, her hand had been grasped in a warm, dry palm… just after he had wiped off his sweat.

“Is it better now? Not cold anymore,” Jiang Jinsang looked down at her, his voice naturally warm, and as the corners of his mouth slowly curved up, it was even more captivating.

“Mmm,” Tang Wan replied in a muffled voice.

“Don’t worry, I won’t get hurt,” Jiang Jinsang comforted her before he let go of her hand and turned away to continue playing with Lord Wansui. The tortoise was quite stubborn, and seeing him deliberately teasing, it simply retreated into its shell, ignoring him.

Tang Wan instinctively touched her wrist where he had made contact and it felt as if it had been seared with molten iron, leaving a mark that burned hot.

“If you have no plans tomorrow, I could take you around Beijing to see the sights.”

Though Tang Wan nodded, she was somewhat distracted.

…

Jiang Jinsang wanted to take a bath, and Tang Wan stayed for a while until the sun no longer reached the spot. Then, holding the turtle tank, she returned to her room.

Today, she had not accompanied Elder Tang for his medical checkup, so she knew nothing of the situation. Tang Yunxian had only told her that it was nothing serious, but she was still somewhat uneasy and had called Zhou Zhongqing for more details.

No one answered at first, but about ten minutes later, he returned her call.

“Miss Tang, I apologize, I was in a meeting,” Zhou Zhongqing was especially gracious toward Tang Wan.

He had always thought that Jiang Xiaowu was overly high-strung and odd, destined to be lonely, but surprisingly he found someone he was interested in.

“I should be the one apologizing; I disturbed you.”

Zhou Zhongqing chuckled, “It’s all right, what did you need?”

“I wanted to ask about my grandfather’s condition.”

“Elder Tang is doing quite well, there’s no need to worry…”

Zhou Zhongqing didn’t reveal too much, just enough to satisfy her inquiries. After discussing Elder Tang’s condition, logically, they should have said goodbye; however, Tang Wan hesitated, seeming to have more she wanted to ask.

“Just speak your mind, if I can answer, I will.”
