Chapter 269



269 I keep feeling like he’s doing it on purpose

“Sister, you’re Yingluo.”

after leaving the han family’s house, shi bochen, who was sitting in the car, looked at shi yan, who was beside him, and spoke hesitantly.

This was the first time he had seen his sister angry. In his impression, his sister had always been calm and elegant. He had never seen her blush at anyone.

Perhaps she had blushed when she left home, but he was not at home at that time and did not see it with his own eyes.

so this was what an angry sister was like.

Even he was a little shocked.

He wanted to say something, but he didn’t know what to say.

to comfort her and not get angry?

however, she didn’t look angry.

She didn’t know what to say for a long time, but she had a further understanding of how much she cared about the fifth Lord of the Jiang family.

He didn’t allow anyone to say anything bad about the fifth Lord Jiang.

since han shuangshuang had called her a cripple, she would turn han shuangshuang into a cripple!

Both of them were sitting in the back seat. Shi Yan looked at him and asked with a faint smile, ” “What?”

without waiting for shi bochen’s reply, she said, ” “Just say what you want to say.”

“it’s nothing,”

Shi Bochen retracted his gaze and looked ahead.”Sis, where are we going now?” this wasn’t the way back to haicheng university.

“let’s go eat first.”

jiang che was already waiting at the jade eatery.

Shi Bochen did not ask where they were going to eat. After hearing Shi Yan’s answer, he fell silent.

In fact, he was a little discouraged because Shi Yan could solve any problems she encountered without his help. Moreover, now that Shi Yan had Jiang che by her side, Shi Bochen felt that he was of no use to her.

he had originally wanted to do something to make it up to shi yan.

seeing him remain silent, shi yan asked, ” “are you on good terms with the third miss of the jiang family?”

Naturally, she did not know that Jiang Yun was the third young miss of the Jiang family. She only heard Jiang Lin calling her third young miss in the canteen.

the main purpose of her words was not to ask about shi bochen and jiang yun’s relationship, but to change the topic when she saw that shi bochen seemed to have something on his mind.

“I only know him.”

She looked at Shi Yan and said, ” sister Yan, those are outsiders. I’ll always be on your side. So, if Jiang Yun does anything to make you unhappy, you don’t have to show mercy just because I know her.

“i know,” shi yan smiled.

After that, the two of them chatted for a while. Shi Bochen mentioned that qu Boyan had come to Haicheng some time ago and asked Shi Yan if she had seen him. Shi Yan did not hide anything and told him the truth.

shi bochen then asked her if she needed to prepare anything for their trip in a few days. shi yan said that there was no need and that she would discuss it with ren kexin. he would only need to bring a few changes of clothes and not prepare anything else.

Shi Bochen even mentioned that he wanted to pay a visit to the Jiang family in Haicheng to thank them for taking care of Shi Yan. Shi Yan said that there was no hurry, and qu Boyan had also mentioned this matter. They would go together the next time qu Boyan came to Haicheng.

at the thought that he was still young and was shi yan’s younger brother instead of her older brother, it would not be appropriate for him to visit her so rashly. hence, shi bochen did not say anything more.

they chatted all the way to the jade eatery.

it wasn’t in the small building in front of the jade eatery, but in the backyard.

Without letting anyone lead the way, Jiang Lin went to park the car while Shi Yan led Shi Bochen to the backyard of the Jade Restaurant.

Seeing the elegant layout of the backyard of Jade Restaurant and Shi Yan’s familiar look, Shi Bochen couldn’t help but steal a glance at her.

It seemed like it wasn’t his sister’s first time here.

his sister was a very casual person who didn’t have any requirements for the quality of life. if it wasn’t for someone taking her out, she almost wouldn’t take the initiative to come out for a meal alone, let alone come all the way here to eat.

if she had that little time, she would rather use it to read.

it could be seen that she was so familiar with this place because someone had brought her here before, or more than once.

shi bochen felt that shi yan had changed a little, but he didn’t know if she had changed a long time ago or only recently. they hadn’t contacted each other for a long time.

As he walked along the stone path to the courtyard, Shi Bochen saw the person playing chess with him under the Laurel tree.

It was the season when osmanthus flowers bloomed, and the small courtyard was filled with the faint fragrance of osmanthus flowers.

It was almost evening, and the sky was red.

from their angle, they could only see the side of each other’s faces.

Just the side profile was enough to make people stunned.

He sat on the chair, took off his suit, and put it aside. He was only wearing a white shirt. He sat there without any arrogance. On the contrary, he gave off a gentle and elegant feeling.

A gentleman was like jade, gentle and warm.

just looking at his appearance, this praise of the world was very fitting.

as he approached, he seemed to have heard footsteps and looked up.

shi bochen saw his face clearly.

before he could exclaim in surprise, he saw that the other party seemed to only have eyes for his sister and not him.

When the man’s eyes fell on his sister’s face, he even saw the man’s deep and calm eyes suddenly become gentle.

it wasn’t deliberate, it was a very natural change.

it was an instinct.

“Miss Shi, are you done with your work?” his voice was as warm as the feeling he gave off.

He was a little surprised that the fifth Lord Jiang, who had made so many people afraid, actually had such a gentle and gentlemanly appearance, but he also felt that he should be like this.

“Yes, I’m done.” Shi Yan’s eyes were full of smiles.

“Mr. Jiang, have you been waiting for a long time?”

“no, i just arrived a while ago.”

Shi Yan glanced at his chessboard, which was full of chess pieces. She did not believe his words.

however, she caught a glimpse of his suit hanging at the side and could not help but frown at the thin shirt he was wearing. ” “why are you only wearing so little? It’s cold in the afternoon, aren’t you afraid of catching a cold?”

it was already past five in the afternoon, and the sun was no longer shining where jiang che was sitting.

Her concern was very effective on Jiang che, and his eyes were filled with a smile. “i’m in good health, i don’t get sick that easily.”

“but i’ll be more careful next time so that miss shi won’t worry.”

He looked like he was very obedient to her.

This made Shi Yan feel helpless.

Jiang che then looked at Shi Bochen, who had come over with Shi Yan, and nodded slightly. “Fourth young master Shi.”

He didn’t have a high attitude and was even very gentle. However, when Shi Bochen met his gaze, he felt an inexplicable sense of oppression.

as expected of the fifth lord jiang, his imposing manner was hidden in his bones, and he exuded an awe-inspiring aura without being angry.

he greeted her not too enthusiastically but not impolitely, ” “fifth lord jiang,”

jiang che didn’t say anything like ” there’s no need to treat me as an outsider. ” at most, he was polite to shi bochen and wasn’t really enthusiastic.

” fourth young master shi, please have a seat. i’ve already made arrangements. we can eat in about half an hour. ”

“Fifth Lord Jiang is too polite,”

Shi Bochen followed Shi Yan over and sat down.

someone served two cups of tea and left quickly.

There were only the three of them in the courtyard.

Jiang che looked at Shi Yan, who was sitting on the other side of the chessboard, and said, ” “Miss Shi, we still have to wait for a while before we can eat and play a game of chess?”

Shi Yan naturally had no objections. Her gaze fell on him.”sure, but mr. jiang, you have to put on your clothes first.”

hearing this, jiang che looked at her with a dazed smile and said, ” “miss shi, you’re indeed very strict with me.”

Shi Yan,”Yingluo.”

shi bochen, who was holding a teacup and preparing to drink tea, said, ” “……”

He felt that Jiang che was doing this on purpose.
