activa-t The plot of Chapter 57 has been revealed.
The plot of Chapter 57 has been revealed.
When the little boy came downstairs, he was wearing a white T-shirt and jeans. He secretly glanced at his mother and saw that she was also wearing a white shirt and jeans. Yay!
Shen Xi came to her senses after sitting on the sofa. Jiang Ci didn't disturb her and just sat next to her quietly watching her.
He heard the little boy's footsteps, looked in the direction of the sound, raised an eyebrow, and then looked down at the black shirt he was wearing.
Tsk, what a miscalculation.
Seeing the child come down, Shen Xi said softly, "Let's go."
Jiang Ci glanced at the small bag on the sofa, then naturally took it and held it in his hand.
When he turned around, the woman and child were gone.
His lips twitched slightly. The eldest is heartless, and the youngest is heartless too.
The butler, Li, stood straight outside the door. When he saw Shen Xi, the 'former wife who may become the current wife,' come out, he immediately stepped forward and opened the Cayenne car door.
Shen Xi sighed inwardly, "That's why sometimes, if you want to know if a man is good to you, the words and actions of the people around him can reveal it."
Jiang Ci has been acting strangely lately, and as a result, the people around him are all treating her with great respect, unlike when she first transmigrated into the book, when they looked at her with a hint of disdain.
They also climbed up Xiaojiangdu. Jiang Ci didn't bring a driver today; he drove them out himself.
"Go to the public hospital next to South Street."
Shen Xi watched him light the fire and suddenly spoke up.
Jiang Ci glanced at the woman in the rearview mirror. No matter how relaxed she seemed, she couldn't hide the tension in her eyes. She even subconsciously looked away when the child looked up at her.
"Okay, fasten your seatbelts."
The one-hour drive passed quickly.
Jiang Ci calmly rolled up his sleeves, opened the car door first, and then walked to the back to open the car door for them.
He strolled past the little boy, walked up to Shen Xi, and naturally took her hand.
Shen Xi: …… ?
How come you're getting more and more skilled at it?
Shen Xi scooped up the little ferry that his father had almost forgotten, leaving the little boy bewildered.
But as he looked at the backs of the family of three on the ground, he smiled silently.
Shen Xi shook his hand for a while, but the man's well-defined knuckles didn't budge. She asked sincerely, "We don't seem to be close enough to hold hands, do we?"
Jiang Ci remained calm and composed, speaking casually, "You've been back in Yunxiaxiang for a while, so you might not be aware of the recent customs in the capital. Two people of the opposite sex are supposed to hold hands when they walk together."
"Oh, maybe our customs are different from yours."
"..."
Shen Xi's silence was deafening.
The custom of the god stepping on the horse.
Today is Sunday, and there aren't as many other people queuing to register at the hospital, but perhaps everyone suddenly feels like they've undergone a genetic mutation.
There were an unusually large number of people coming to get their DNA tested today.
It was the first time in his life that Young Master Jiang had been queuing. He glanced at Shen Xi and gently pulled her to stand in front of him, while Xiao Jiangdu stood in front of Shen Xi.
The little boy looked left and right, seemingly seeing such a scene for the first time.
From behind, it looks like a tall man sheltering a petite woman in front of him, with their child in front of them.
Many passersby cast curious glances at them; the family of three were so good-looking that they were a sight to behold wherever they went.
They looked up at the queue again.
Oh, DNA testing.
The queue wasn't long. The doctor took them to the testing room, where they filled out their personal information and had five or six hair follicles collected.
The old doctor waved his hand, "Come and pick it up when you receive the hospital's notification."
Shen Xi pursed her lips, "Doctor, how long will this take at the earliest?"
The old doctor glanced at them. "Biologically speaking, it takes eight hours. If you want to expedite it, you can complete the procedures and get it the next afternoon."
"Okay, thank you."
Sometimes, the world is just that wonderful.
Shen Xi racked her brains but couldn't understand how Xiao Jiangdu could be her child.
Furthermore, how did she manage to seduce the Jiang family's leader into bed?
At this time,
Suddenly, a sharp, shrill female voice rang out in the hall.
"Bai Linlin, you brat, stop right there!"
Shen Xi snapped back to reality, her mind suddenly blank as she looked in the direction of the sound. Bai Linlin?!
At that moment, a woman in a pale yellow dress ran up behind them with lightning speed.
To be precise, it was behind Jiang Ci.
She felt weak, pitiful, and helpless as she tried to tug at the corner of the man's shirt, but the man's eyes were cold, and he turned away to avoid her.
Jiang Ci's slightly cool hand put his arm around Shen Xi, who was trying to see people clearly, and then he pulled his son, who was almost squeezed out of the circle.
"Sir, could you please..."
"If you have any problems, call the police."
As Jiang Ci spoke, he casually took out his phone and pressed a button.
Bai Linlin panicked instantly. She stammered, "No need to call the police... Actually, it's nothing... My aunt and I had a misunderstanding."
Her face was slightly flushed, and her eyes were filled with tears, looking at the young master of the Jiang family with a hesitant expression, as if she wanted to say something but couldn't.
Jiang Ci looked weary and indifferent, his eyes cold and stern, exuding a subtle sense of dominance. He gently pulled the stunned woman and his curious son beside him and turned to leave.
Even after getting into the car, Shen Xi was still thinking about the woman named Bai Linlin from earlier; she looked so much like Su Su.
However, she seems to be more... innocent and naive.
She couldn't help but recall Su Su's stubborn yet gentle eyes.
Could it be that Su Su's sister is her?
Also, the female protagonist in the book seems to be named Bai Linlin.
What is the connection between them?
Shen Xi felt that all of this was like a tangled mess of threads, impossible to unravel.
She gently lifted her eyelids and thought carefully. It seemed that the female protagonist had an unfortunate older sister who had died in the fire.
Su Su seems to be the unlucky older sister, and the crying girl from earlier is the female lead.
Shen Xi watched as the man driving in front of her exuded an air of pampered elegance, a thin layer of smoke dissipating from his eyes. She calmly and distantly looked away.
The plotline has been revealed.
"Mommy, Mommy, we're home~" the little boy's sweet, soft voice rang out.
Shen Xi snapped out of her daze, smiled at him, and took the child's hand as they got out of the car.
She saw the man standing outside the car, glanced at him gently, and smiled slightly.
Jiang Ci stood there motionless. He suddenly realized that Shen Xi's gaze was devoid of emotion, even feeling.
His gaze lingered on her, and recalling the farce at the hospital, a jolt of unease ran through him.
"I don't know that person."
His voice was pleasant, and his gaze towards Shen Xi was focused and earnest, but upon closer listening, one could detect a hint of grievance.
Shen Xi asked, "Do you like that girl from earlier?"
Jiang Ci didn't remember what that person looked like at all. He shook his head, a slight doubt rising in his heart. How could Shen Xi think that he liked that person?
His gaze fell on Shen Xi; perhaps his girl knew something else.
