Chapter 178: 140 Outing: Only one bed, how to sleep? (2 more updates)_2

She was caught in a difficult situation and couldn’t afford to offend the grandmother, so she had to stand up, steeling her courage as she bowed to Tang Wan to apologize, “Miss Tang, I’m truly sorry about last night, and I apologize.”

“It’s okay.” Tang Wan didn’t have a good impression of her, and it wasn’t a matter of forgiveness but out of respect for the elderly lady’s wishes, she didn’t make the situation uglier.

“Old Tang, didn’t you say you wanted to go out for a stroll? Let’s go, all together…” The grandmother picked up her cane beside her, ready to step outside.

“Grandma, I’ll come with you,” Jiang Shuyan offered at once, but as soon as her fingers touched her grandmother’s arm, they were gently brushed aside without a word.

“We’ll just sit in the courtyard. You young people sit down and chat, no need to accompany me.”

The grandmother felt very displeased at heart. Even though she was not her direct granddaughter, she bore the Jiang surname, and this matter involved her, though there wasn’t concrete evidence, it was only through indirect means that she could warn her.

The Tang Family was not foolish either, old Tang was certainly aware, so the grandmother felt embarrassed to face an old friend, and of course, she wouldn’t show Jiang Shuyan any pleasantness.

After the elders left, Jiang Shuyan couldn’t stay any longer, using the excuse of meeting friends to leave.

When Qi Zeyan saw her leave, he peeled an orange and started eating, “You really can’t pamper people too much. Grandma is just too nice to her, and with people flattering her outside, she begins to lose sense of who she is.”

“You shouldn’t be too greedy in life.”

…

He talked for a while, then glanced at the two others, “Why aren’t you two talking?”

“We’re listening to you.” Tang Wan and Qi Zeyan weren’t familiar, which is why they didn’t chime in.

“And you?” Qi Zeyan looked towards Jiang Jinsang.

“I’m thinking about traveling.”

“Traveling?” Qi Zeyan frowned, “Isn’t Yanting taking Jiangjiang out to play?” Since this was already planned.

“Me and Wanwan are going too!”

Qi Zeyan was surprised, finding the orange he’d devoured overly cold and sour.

They were scheduled to leave in the afternoon, and after lunch, Tang Wan definitely needed to pack her luggage. The grandmother, ever hospitable, invited Qi Zeyan to stay for a meal. Since it was New Year’s Day tomorrow and he had nothing else planned, he went into Jiang Jinsang’s room to hang out…

When he saw that Tang Wan was staying in the room next to his, he suddenly scolded someone for being shameless!

The two of them were quite familiar with each other, and they knew these two rooms were only separated by a movable cabinet.

As Jiang Jinsang packed his luggage, he sat beside him, playing with Lord Wansui, but even the turtle ignored him, which really annoyed him.

Jiang Yanting and Jiangjiang’s trip had been planned a long time ago, the plane tickets and hotel had been booked in advance. Although they were staying in the same hotel as Tang Wan and others, they were not on the same flight, and the four arrived at the airport in two groups.

When Tang Wan and Jiang Jinsang were boarding, it was very crowded, almost at full capacity, and the narrow aisle was somewhat cramped. As the two shuffled forward, there was inevitable physical contact.

Finally finding their seats, Tang Wan sighed in relief.

“I didn’t expect so many people to be traveling.”

“It is a bit crowded.” Jiang Jinsang secured their luggage before sitting down.

Before boarding, Tang Wan was texting with her best friend, and even in the short time since boarding, she had received four or five voice messages. She opened one to listen.

“…going out together, Tang Xiaowan, you’ve got to step it up, I’m telling you, good men are rare these days. If you find someone you like, don’t hesitate.”

“When you’re out, pay close attention to this man. Traveling together tends to reveal a lot.”

“If you think he’s alright, aim for home base, seize the moment, talk about it after. In today’s world, it’s not necessarily men who have to take the initiative. If you like him, be proactive. Life is short, cherish the time you have.”

“Tang Xiaowan, go for it, don’t be timid, just do it.”

…

Home base?

Tang Wan felt sure her friend was out of her mind, but her friend’s frankness made her suddenly blush.

“What’s wrong?” Jiang Jinsang looked at her flushed face and asked quietly, “Is the air bad? Do you feel stuffy?”
