Capítulo 647: 408 Before the wedding, gods and demons all appear in their true forms? (3 more updates)_2

Jiang Chengsi had only had some low-alcohol white wine, yet even so, he was showing signs of tipsiness.

“That one…” The guy pointed at Shen Shuci, who was sitting next to Tang Wan.

Among the girls who came today, which one wasn’t wearing delicate makeup and dressed in a beautiful dress? Only Shen Shuci came straight from the company, still in a business suit. When she walked in, those who didn’t recognize her even thought she had come to the wrong place…

After all, she was dressed in a women’s suit and carrying a briefcase, looking too much like she was here to discuss business.

Now, having removed her jacket, she was in black trousers and a white shirt, the sleeves rolled up to her elbows, as she turned her head to chat and laugh with Tang Wan.

She wasn’t part of the Beijing circle, and many were seeing Tang Wan in person for the first time, let alone Shen Shuci. Yet, as she sat there, from beginning to end, she kept her back straight and poised, radiating excellent temperament…

There were quite a few in the private room staring at her, but with Jiang Shiyi on her left and Tang Wan on her right, no one dared to approach.

“Got your eye on her? The one with the hair up, white shirt?” Jiang Chengsi sipped his drink.

“Fourth Brother, you know her? Help me out, set up a connection.”

“You know who she is?”

“No clue.” With so many people gathered, how could anyone know everyone.

“That’s my sister’s aunt you’re aiming to hit on. What, you want to ride over my head so I have to call you ‘Uncle’?” Jiang Chengsi raised an eyebrow.

“Fourth Brother, not at all!”

“She’s a nice girl, and you’re ‘unworthy.’”

“Fourth Brother, do you think I’m ‘worthy’?”

These guys were all part of the usual crowd, and while none of them were bad, the thought of those who usually call him ‘Big Brother’ wanting to be his aunt’s husband obviously didn’t sit well with Jiang Chengsi.

“Don’t say your brothers look down on you,” Jiang Chengsi chuckled lightly, “If you’ve got the skills and truly win her over, with mutual affection, I have no objections…”

“But she’s Xiaowu’s aunt, you guys weigh it yourselves, whether your skin is thick enough to withstand falling into his hands.”

“If you really fancy her, go chase her.”

Jiang Chengsi was only worried these guys wouldn’t make it to Shen Shuci before ending up dismembered by Jiang Jinsang.

They scattered in a bustle, yet covertly plotting to ask for her contact…

“What were those guys huddling around you for?” Qi Zeyan saw them grouped around Jiang Chengsi earlier, muttering and thought there was some juicy gossip.

“What else? They wanted me to introduce them to the single girls in the private room.”

This gathering was put together by Jiang Chengsi and Qi Zeyan; they knew everyone in the private room best.

“Who caught their eye?” Qi Zeyan asked nonchalantly, sipping champagne.

“The aunt.”

“Pff—” Qi Zeyan almost spit out his drink.

“Man, what’s with the reaction?” Jiang Chengsi frowned and handed him a tissue, “You interested in her too?”

“Impossible.”

Qi Zeyan took the tissue from his hand and wiped the corner of his mouth…

Actually, people had recently been probing him about Shen Shuci; after all, he was good friends with Jiang Jinsang and might know Shen Shuci, hoping to get a connection through him.

He didn’t understand why Shen Shuci had suddenly become so popular.

When he went home, he’d even complained to the old master, who directly said:

“Other than Jiang Shuyan, the Jiang family doesn’t have any girls, and she’s out of commission now. Families with only sons who wish to join with the Jiang family through marriage have it tough, and the Fan Family kid is too young… Naturally, their attention turned to Shen Shuci.”

“Moreover, marrying her would elevate one’s status in the Jiang family. Although it’s impossible to be equal with your Uncle Jiang, they would certainly rank above Yanting and Xiaowu.”

“Shen Shuci gets along well with them, so she definitely became the catch of the day. With Yanting’s wedding this time, a lot of people have their eyes on her.”

Qi Zeyan listened, his head aching…

Anyway, anyone who came through him to get to know Shen Shuci, or whatever, were all turned away by him, leading the old Mr. Qi to even suspect at one point whether he had a little interest in Shen Shuci.

“Grandfather, you can’t talk nonsense, I have absolutely no interest in her!”

Qi Zeyan was almost ready to swear and vow.
