A beautiful summer night

The next day, Jiang Baichuan arrived as promised.

When Yunli saw that he had brought things over, she felt helpless, but knew there was nothing she could do about it.

"Why are you here so early?"

It wasn't even 5:30 yet.

She didn't want to delay his work, so she arranged to meet him after he got off work, but who would have thought he would leave early.

Jiang Baichuan chuckled: "I have a date with a beauty, I can't wait."

No sooner had she finished speaking than Xia Wanzhi, who had been squatting behind the partition arranging flower buds, suddenly popped her head out.

Yunli: "..."

Jiang Baichuan: "..."

"Ahem." Xia Wanzhi experienced what it felt like to be a third wheel for the first time. Jiang Baichuan's words just now really made her question him. But thinking that her husband was just as shameless, and that the two were good brothers, Xia Wanzhi didn't find it strange.

"I won't disturb you, you can continue, I'll be going now." Xia Wanzhi suppressed a laugh.

Yunli called out to her helplessly, "It's cold, how are you going to get here? Wait a bit, let your boss Xie come pick you up."

Xia Wanzhi took a step back and raised an eyebrow at Jiang Baichuan: "It's not that I'm refusing to leave."

Jiang Baichuan chuckled: "It's alright, I don't mind."

Yunli secretly glared at him.

Xia Wanzhi glanced at it, then mechanically looked away: "I didn't see anything."

Yunli: "..."

Well, Xia Wanzhi has teased her too much before, now she's learning to return the favor.

Yunli pursed her lips, glanced at Jiang Baichuan again, and surprisingly felt a little shy.

Jiang Baichuan really treated Xia Wanzhi like she was invisible, or rather, he completely regarded her as one of his own, after all, from the beginning until now, she has been his biggest helper.

Xia Wanzhi was sending a message to Xie Qiyan, telling him to come quickly.

"Open it and take a look." Jiang Baichuan skillfully handed the gift to Yun Li.

Yunli glared at him, then glanced at Xia Wanzhi out of the corner of her eye.

Xia Wanzhi squatted back down guiltily, only pricking up her ears to listen.

Judging from the gift box, Yunli knew that the gift he gave was valuable enough. She might not have accepted it in the past, but today she would not refuse Jiang Baichuan.

As the gift was unwrapped, Yunli froze. Jiang Baichuan could tell she liked it very much, and he secretly gave his younger sister another credit.

This vinyl record is out of print, and even secondhand copies are hard to find these days. Its value is beyond monetary terms. Jiang Baichuan knew that Yunli liked listening to vinyl records, and he had also figured out which singers she liked based on her musical tastes.

As for this vinyl record, it belongs to Jiang Yourong.

Of course, this was a gift from Jiang Yourong voluntarily.

Jiang Baichuan did not rob anyone.

"You..." Yunli's surprise was clearly written all over her face. "Where did you come from?"

Jiang Baichuan raised an eyebrow: "If you like it, that's good."

It was completely irrelevant, but knowing his personality, Yunli didn't ask any further questions.

She knew how precious the gift was, and she also knew how much Jiang Baichuan cared for her.

"President Jiang is quite thoughtful, knowing how to cater to his preferences." Xia Wanzhi saw the rare vinyl record, stood up and made a sound, thinking to herself that Jiang Baichuan was now in a winning position.

This gift was exactly what Yunli wanted.

Jiang Baichuan wanted to be modest, but he couldn't help raising his eyebrows slightly at Xia Wanzhi.

"What is the purpose of Mr. Jiang giving my sister Yun such a precious gift?" Xia Wanzhi suppressed a laugh, determined to ask this question to see how he would respond.

To everyone's surprise, Jiang Baichuan was surprisingly generous and said, "I'm trying to please your sister Yun."

Xia Wanzhi: "..."

Yunli: "..."

Xia Wanzhi squatted down again.

He thought to himself that men are indeed born confident and shameless.

Yunli couldn't stand it anymore and pinched his arm: "Say less."

Jiang Baichuan packed the gift back for her, then gently pushed her back to sit down, explaining as he casually teased, "Hasn't Wanzi heard enough from President Xie? Don't worry about her being shy, we..."

Yunli pinched him again.

Jiang Baichuan shut his mouth.

Xia Wanzhi's eyes darted back and forth between the two of them, and she immediately understood that they were tacitly in sync.

One was affectionate, the other was willing.

All that's left is a confession, and it's all set!

Xia Wanzhi sighed inwardly, realizing that she had come at the wrong time.

Ten minutes later, Xie Qiyan arrived, but as soon as he stepped into the house, Xia Wanzhi dragged him out.

Xie Qiyan couldn't see who was in the room. He took Xia Wanzhi's hand and put it in his pocket, covering it as they walked, asking, "What's wrong?"

Xia Wanzhi, who was afraid of the cold, shivered and said, "Jiang Baichuan is inside. I'll tell you when we get in the car."

Upon hearing that Jiang Baichuan was inside, Xie Qiyan could roughly guess what was going on.

He was teased by his brother-in-law at the last auction, so he must be getting anxious.

Once in the car, Xia Wanzhi shivered, then fastened her seatbelt and smiled, her eyes crinkling: "They're going to get together."

Xie Qiyan wasn't surprised. He had bought a hot drink when he came, and now he opened the sippy and handed it to Xia Wanzhi: "Good news. The old man from the Jiang family has been looking forward to this day. This year, Yunli will probably go back to the Jiang family with him for the New Year."

It's already December, and the New Year will be at the end of next month.

After meeting the parents, the rest will be put on the agenda.

Everyone in the circle knows that the old man in the Jiang family is already very old this year.

The old man has a house full of children and grandchildren, and his granddaughter is already a mother. He's just missing Jiang Baichuan.

Seeing Jiang Baichuan get married was also the old man's last wish.

"How do you know Yunli will go back with him?" Xia Wanzhi couldn't help but ask, seeing his overly confident expression.

Xie Qiyan told her about the Jiang family's affairs, and Xia Wanzhi immediately understood.

As the old man gets older, he has developed various health problems and has spent most of this year in the hospital. It's normal for him to want to see his granddaughter-in-law when he gets old.

The Jiang family will definitely want to meet Yun Li, and Jiang Baichuan will certainly discuss it with Yun Li first. He will also respect Yun Li's opinion. If it were someone else, Yun Li might not want to meet the parents so soon, but because of Grandpa Jiang, Yun Li will most likely soften her heart.

Xia Wanzhi thought this was for the best. Regardless of what would happen after meeting the parents, at least Jiang Baichuan was a reliable person.

Thinking that Yunli had found a good home, Xia Wanzhi took a sip of hot milk and felt a warmth in her heart when she glanced at Xie Qiyan.

She has also found a good home.

Inside the flower shop, the atmosphere became subtle after Xia Wanzhi left.

Jiang Baichuan's overly direct gaze remained fixed on Yun Li's face. Yun Li couldn't avoid it and had no choice but to meet his gaze helplessly: "Don't look at me like that."

"I've truly come to understand what it means to feel like three autumns have passed in a single day." Jiang Baichuan only looked away for a second before he couldn't help but look at her again.

He admitted that he was lustful at first sight.

But how could Yunli be the only beautiful woman he'd ever met who could arouse his lust?

Fate is something that cannot be explained.

Jiang Baichuan simply liked her; he liked her as a person, from head to toe, inside and out.

Yunli: "..."

"Please sit down first, I have something to give you." Yun Li was a little nervous when she got up, tripped over the chair, and embarrassed, she didn't dare to look at Jiang Baichuan.

"Don't worry, boss lady, I won't run away. I'll wait for you here," Jiang Baichuan was also nervous, but he couldn't show it.

Yunli ignored his teasing and went to get the gift she wanted to give him.
