Chapter 1116: Chapter 658: Naming? Fifth Master Acts First, Jiang Xiaowai Is Just an AccidentThe winter sky was harsh with cold winds running rampant, and the urgent ringing of a phone broke the silence of the room. Qi Zeyan realized it was his phone ringing, and he instinctively reached out to grab it...

Unexpectedly, he touched something soft and warm!

What the heck is this?

His head was foggy, and he instinctively squeezed it twice, suddenly realizing what it was...

He was so startled, his pupils trembled, and he almost jumped out of bed. When he turned his head, he found Ruan Daqiang sleeping next to him, and his hand was on Ruan’s belly.

Ruan was staring at him with wide-open eyes, ”Still touching?”

That gaze looked as if it wanted to devour him.

Waking up early, already so angry?

”Sorry, Uncle, I... I just need to take a call!” He searched around frantically and finally found his phone stuck between the bed and the bedside table; it was Xiaozhu calling.

Xiaozhu was already at the Qi Family residence, ready to take him to the office, but was informed he hadn’t returned all night.

”I’ll go to the office myself later.” Qi Zeyan pinched his brow, unable to recall how he managed to fall asleep last night. After ending the call, he exchanged awkward glances with Ruan Daqiang, awkwardly smiled, and got up to wash up.

”Brother-in-law, you’re awake?” Ding Dabao was a police academy student, accustomed to early morning workouts even during vacations, getting up before dawn to exercise.

Ruan Mengxi had already gone to the club, only Ruan’s mom was watching a morning health show on TV.

Qi Zeyan simply smiled and headed to the bathroom to wash up, with Ding Dabao following him inside to share his glorious deeds from last night.

It was mainly that Ruan Daqiang lectured him yesterday, and he fell asleep, not only that, but he found Ruan noisy and told him to shut up; he even kicked Ruan’s thigh while sleeping; the scariest part was half-hugging Ruan and mumbling Ruan Mengxi’s name...

Qi Zeyan listened with a chill running down his spine, no wonder Ruan Daqiang woke up looking like he wanted to eat him alive.

As Qi Zeyan left the apartment, he was just about to call Ruan Mengxi when Jiang Chengsi’s call came through.

A nocturnal person, why would he be calling this early? Picking up the call, he greeted.

”Up so early?”

”Gotta go to work.” Qi Zeyan pinched his brow; drinking was really a hindrance.

”No cuddling? Running off to work so early?”

”Cuddling what?” Cuddling with Ruan Daqiang? He’s almost scared to death.

”You and Xiaoruan didn’t have a fiery night last night?”

”I’m an upright gentleman, we wouldn’t do such things in your office, what do you take me for?”

”Are you sure you’re capable?”

”...” Qi Zeyan gripped the steering wheel, ”Jiang Chengsi, are you picking a fight this early in the morning?”

”Come on, bring it on.” His tone was cheeky.

”Maybe you forgot your meds.”

After saying that, Qi Zeyan hung up the call. Jiang Chengsi stared at his phone and sighed deeply, he actually...

Couldn’t sleep last night.

Suddenly feeling hollow and lonely, he went to the basement in the middle of the night to wipe down his beloved motorbike. But this isn’t a living thing, it won’t respond to you; when you’re alone, it can’t give you any comfort.

Tossing and turning in bed, his thoughts drifted aimlessly, staying awake all night, and bored in the early morning, he wanted to chat with Qi Zeyan a bit, but the guy wouldn’t entertain him.

Oh——

The house was too big, the heart too hollow, he packed up and returned to the old house.

The old lady was naturally delighted to see him here, even fetched a few clothes from the room, asking him to help choose which would be suitable for the full-month banquet.

”I like the purplish-red one; it’s more festive.” Jiang Chengsi wandered around, surprised to find Jiang Jinsang wasn’t home, ”Xiaowu isn’t here?”

”He left early this morning, probably to deal with the full-month banquet arrangements.”

Jiang Jinsang has been going out frequently lately; you can’t be expected to know every detail.

Yawning, Jiang Chengsi leaned against the sofa, bored, turned on his phone, and began playing chess. As Tang Lao passed behind him, seeing his interest in chess, he proposed a few games against Jiang.

Playing against a computer can’t compare with a person; Jiang Chengsi was eager to test his recent learnings.

”When did you start liking chess, Chengsi?” The old lady sat on the side and watched a game.

”I find it interesting, just playing casually.”
