Chapter 1169: Chapter 687: Beijing Blind Date Blacklist, Stirring Young Love

Jiang Mansion, the sunlight was weak, the night was looming, and even the air carried a chill.

Xie Duo rarely visited, the Jiang Family had an exceptionally rich selection of dishes today, Jiang Zhenhuan even opened a good bottle of wine, everyone gradually took their seats, and the old lady frowned, looking into the distance. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Jiang Chengsi sat in the old-fashioned rocking chair by the window, maintaining that posture for over half an hour, his lips unable to suppress a smile, not knowing whom he was chatting with, laughter full of spring emotions.

"Chengsi?" the old lady called out, but there was no response.

"Xiaosi!"

After calling twice, someone finally gave her a reaction.

"Grandma, what’s up?"

"Dinner’s ready. Who are you chatting with?"

"Just a friend." Jiang Chengsi said, while still bowing his head to reply to a message, telling her he’s going to dinner and will chat later.

At the table, Jiang Yanting and Xie Duo chatted about traveling together with their families after the New Year, prompting Jiang Chengsi to look up and ask, "Is it nearly New Year?"

Everyone began staring at him with the kind of look you give an idiot.

He only remembered the Gregorian calendar dates and how long until the Lunar New Year, having not paid much attention otherwise.

Mostly, the Jiang Family has been busy with celebrations lately, everyone’s energy focused on Jiang Xiaowai, this little great-grandson arriving at the Jiang Family, could it not be livelier than New Year?

"What else can you see besides cars?" the old lady said helplessly, "It’s almost New Year, don’t live so far away. Shiyi is about to be on holiday, you two brothers should live together, so you can look out for each other..."

With the New Year approaching, surely there would be a lot to do, especially as the club is soon formally opening, Jiang Chengsi nodded in agreement.

On the way home, at a red light, he fished out the receipt for the custom racing suit from his pocket, considering it’s time to move back to Hexi in the next couple of days, and running from west to east might not be easy. Unable to text while driving, he called her instead.

This incognito Miss Si was watching her racing video from the trial opening day.

Through Jiang Jinsang’s reminder, she recalled the day’s events and realized breaking Jiang Chengsi’s record had caused quite a stir in Beijing’s racing community.

Even some clubs offered high prices to invite her over.

Meanwhile, Jiang Chengsi had placed a "bounty" on her, she pinched her brows in headache, her phone suddenly buzzed, startling her, glancing at the caller ID, swallowing her throat nervously.

"Hello? Fourth Master."

"Do you have time in the next couple of days? I’ll give you the racing suit’s receipt."

"Recently..." She pursed her lips, "I might not have time, I have to accompany my parents out for a while."

"To travel?"

"Something like that."

"When are you leaving?"

"In the next couple of days..."

"If you’re available soon, contact me, otherwise, wait until you’re back." After hanging up, Jiang Chengsi was frowning tightly, about to leave Beijing?

The Si Family’s business has always been in the south, as the year ends, there are many events, the Si couple needs to leave Beijing to handle them, unwilling to leave their daughter alone at home.

Worried that there’d be no one at home to keep things in line, some people might start to act out, they decided to take their daughter along, treating it as a family trip.

Before she left, her father was quite strict, not really preventing Jiang Chengsi, but fearing others with ulterior motives might step into proximity with their daughter, thus she didn’t see Jiang Chengsi before leaving Beijing.

...

After Jiang Chengsi moved back to his home in Hexi, he focused all his efforts on the club, concentrating on preparation for the official opening. The newly hired assistant was a man in his thirties, a former professional racer, retired due to injury.

He clicked with Jiang Chengsi immediately, though it made Ruan Mengxi suffer, wedged between two professional racers, always feeling like a naive innocent.

However, his good days didn’t last long, because Jiang Shiyi went on holiday...

He hadn’t lived with Jiang Shiyi for some time, nearly forgetting someone’s obsessive cleanliness, forcing him to sleep early, but sleep, such a thing, relies on feelings, not everyone can fall asleep as soon as their head hits the pillow. On every sleepless night, the next day, at six o’clock sharp, Jiang Shiyi would knock and ask him to go out for morning exercise.

By now it’s deep winter, the morning wind feels like knives on his face, seriously?

"Bro, with this time, why not spend more with your girlfriend? Why always focus on me?" Jiang Chengsi was about to collapse.

He originally thought, even if moving back, as Jiang Shiyi started to date, he likely would have no mind to bother him.

Unexpectedly...

He fell into a nightmare again.

Jiang Shiyi plainly stated, "She’s going back home for New Year."
