Chapter 678: 424 Big Oolong: So High, Life Has Reached Its Peak (3 updates)

Tang Wan’s pregnancy was temporarily kept a secret. Unaware, everyone went about their busy lives, and Shen Shuci tidied up the house before going to the company to report on project work. Passing by a maternity and baby store, she couldn’t help but take a longer look.

Although she had just become an aunt, she was still very happy about Tang Wan’s pregnancy and had already begun considering what gifts to give to the child.

As soon as her car stopped in front of the maternity and baby store, she caught a glimpse of someone speeding past on a motorcycle. In Beijing, the only person she knew who rode a motorcycle so conspicuously was...

Even though she also lived in Hexi, this was the first time Shen Shuci had encountered him. However, Jiang Chengsi seemed not to notice her car and sped off towards the west, most likely heading to the Huo Family.

Huo Family...

Thinking of a certain someone, Shen Shuci felt both embarrassed and annoyed.

...

The motorcycle rider was indeed Jiang Chengsi, but he did not intentionally ignore Shen Shuci; he was simply in a hurry. He and Huo Qinqi had arranged to meet at his place to practice martial arts at ten o’clock in the morning. However, an incident at the club the night before had kept him out until the wee hours, and to top it off, his brother had uncharacteristically turned off his alarm that morning.

Ever since Jiang Shiyi had returned to the country, Chengsi had been early to bed and early to rise.

He called to inquire, and Jiang Shiyi said as if it were the most natural thing, "As your brother, I care about you and didn’t want you to wake up early, so I let you sleep in a bit more."

By the time he got up, it was already nine forty. After quickly washing up, he rode straight to the Huo Family. That certain someone had a strong sense of punctuality; being late was definitely not an option.

Speeding on his motorcycle, he didn’t care less what Shen Shuci thought!

Upon arriving at the Huo Family, he was informed that Huo Qinqi was in the backyard, playing with cats and feeding horses.

When Jiang Chengsi reached the backyard, he walked up to Huo Qinqi and cleared his throat, "Ahem—Old Huo, I’m here."

Huo Qinqi glanced at his watch, "You’re late by 28 minutes and 34 seconds."

"There was a bit of trouble at my club last night. Remember those guys we saw yesterday? That brat from the Liang Family, do you recall?" Jiang Chengsi, fearing that Huo Qinqi would think he was deliberately late, immediately explained the situation.

"There was a fight, they even used wine bottles as weapons, someone got hurt, and the police were called. I went to handle it and didn’t get home until after two in the morning."

"The police showed up, and those kids were still cursing away. I wanted to kick each of them. It’s just them relying on their family’s money to strut around, thinking they are something special."

"..."

Jiang Chengsi talked at length, but Huo Qinqi just gave him a sidelong glance, "You now...look very much like a primary school student who is late for class and making up excuses."

"I’m telling the truth!"

"Does it change the fact that you’re late?"

"No."
