Pampered by Short-Lived Bigshot

Jiang Jinsang walked beside her, but his gaze lingered on her, curiously noting the way she acted. What exactly was hidden in her bag that caused her to panic so?

When they reached the third floor, Tang Wan flashed him a smile, “I’m going back to my room first.”

Without waiting for Jiang Jinsang to speak, she quickly darted into her own room.

The moment Tang Wan got into her room, she immediately dug out the contents of her bag to find a place to hide them. The nightstand seemed too dangerous. As she thought back and forth, unable to decide where to stash it, the cabinet between the two rooms slowly opened…

She hurriedly crammed it into a drawer under the dressing table.

“Brother Zhou, why have you suddenly come over?”

“I had been looking for the Qing History Book you wanted for a long time,” Jiang Jinsang’s peripheral vision caught a glimpse of the drawer she was shielding with her body, a flicker of surprise flashing in his eyes.

“Thank you, I’ve been looking for this for a long time, the second-hand book websites don’t have this edition.”

“I know the professor who wrote this book, I specifically asked him for it.”

“You know this professor?” Tang Wan was terrified at this moment, not even knowing what she had specifically said to Jiang Jinsang.

“However, it’s almost Chinese New Year, and he has gone back to his hometown for the holidays. I can introduce you after the New Year.”

…

Tang Wan chatted with him for a while, but soon Ruan Mengxi called, and she didn’t dare to answer in front of Jiang Jinsang, so she hid away in the restroom.

Some people speak too boldly, who knows what outrageous words they might utter!

Jiang Jinsang stared at the drawer; because her motion just now had been too hasty, the drawer was not completely closed, he slightly raised an eyebrow.

He walked over, raised his hand, and gently opened the drawer a bit.

In his heart, he reassured himself: I’m not deliberately snooping, I just want to properly close the drawer for her.

Through the narrow opening, he could clearly see the contents inside, his brow furrowed slightly, she…

Why would she buy something like this?

However, Tang Wan didn’t think much about it after returning from her phone call, being in a rush and panicked already, she didn’t check if the drawer was tightly closed.

“I should head back to my room now.”

“Mhm.” Tang Wan heard that he was leaving and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, thinking her secret was well concealed.

Jiang Jinsang was sitting in an armchair, originally reading a book, when his phone vibrated. It was a message from Qi Zeyan, simply asking him whether he was going to attend the Xie Family’s annual gathering in a few days.

[I’m attending.]

Qi Zeyan chuckled, [You’re rare to come out, huh?]

[By the way, I have a question for you.]

[Oh? You’re actually consulting me about something? That’s a miracle.]

[Don’t you pride yourself on being a socialite?]

[Of course, brother has been in the social scene for so long, I’m experienced and knowledgeable.]

[When do you think it’s appropriate for a couple to become intimate?]

Qi Zeyan was immediately intrigued to hear that Jiang Jinsang actually had something to consult him about, ready to transform into a caring big brother at any moment, but didn’t expect this question.

[Are you freaking kidding me? Are you deliberately flaunting your relationship in my face? Screw off—]

Mocking me for not having a partner, huh?

Jiang Jinsang caressed his phone. Tang Wan was preparing that, so she must be looking forward to it, right? She’s usually quite shy about such things, I hadn’t realized…

Indeed, when a girl says no, it often means yes.

Plus, this kind of thing can’t be initiated by the girl first; not realizing her thoughts in time, as a boyfriend, I’ve already been neglectful.

If I don’t do something, it seems unjustifiable!

At this moment, Tang Wan had already stuffed the item into what she believed was a concealed place; if she knew Jiang Jinsang’s thoughts right now, she probably would have wanted to kill Ruan Mengxi.
