When 19 arrived, he did not look well. His clothes were still a little messy.
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at him and asked worriedly, “What happened? What happened on the road?”
“Oh, nothing much. There was a small car accident. A few cars in front crashed into each other. The police came over and said that they were driving under the influence of drugs. All the pa.s.sing cars were checked. Fortunately, I braked quickly or I would have hit them all.”
“Drugs?”
“Yes, yes. And it’s an old acquaintance, Pei Li.”
Shen Xiaoxiao understood. She glanced at Dark 2, who acted as if nothing had happened. In the end, she did not say anything. She only said to 19, “It’s good that you’re fine. The children ate the game by themselves today. Come, let’s go to the restaurant.”
“Okay.”
The two children were very excited about the food they had hunted. They ate much more than usual. It was not that the taste was good, but of course, there was some flavor. The most important thing was that the fruits of their labor made them very excited.
“Next time, when the weather is warmer, we can still grow our own vegetables in the small garden. When the time comes, you can also eat the food in your own hands.”
“Really? That’s great.”
The two children’s love for nature was something Shen Xiaoxiao had not expected. Dark 2 knew that Shen Xiaoxiao had a big appet.i.te, so he did not show any mercy when hunting. The prey was enough for them to hunt tonight and tomorrow at noon.
As for the children, they said that they could continue tomorrow and that they could barbecue and eat together tomorrow night. Since they were on vacation, of course, they would do whatever was fun.
Halfway through dinner, Jiang Haoming brought a group of young people into the restaurant. Naturally, Pei Li was not there.
When Shen Xiaoxiao heard 19 say that Pei Li was driving with drugs, she knew that he had left early. He had even missed such a good opportunity to curry favor with Fourth Young Master Jiang. Then, he must have something more important to do.
After thinking about it, Shen Xiaoxiao didn’t think about anything else other than dealing with him.
However, no matter how Pei Li explained, he would probably have to stay in the detention center for a few days.
Of course, this wasn’t something that Shen Xiaoxiao could control, and she didn’t want to interfere.
Jiang Haoming naturally saw Shen Xiaoxiao and her group eating in the hall. Regardless of what reason it was, he would come over and greet Shen Xiaoxiao. Although Shen Xiaoxiao’s appearance made him miss the chance to teach Jiang Wendong a lesson… But offending Shen Xiaoxiao now was not a rational thing to do.
Therefore, Jiang Wendong brought four men and a woman to the other end of the restaurant and sat down.
He wanted to greet Shen Xiaoxiao, but Shen Xiaoxiao did not even raise her head. He was too embarra.s.sed to go over even if he wanted to.
“Eh, why is Jiang Haoran here?”
Just as they finished eating, 19’s surprised voice made Shen Xiaoxiao raise her head from the bowl. Jiang Haoran was here? How was that possible? So fast? And what was he doing here?
Sure enough, it really was Jiang Haoran at first glance, but why didn’t that brat Jiang Wendong appear?
Of course, Jiang Haoming also saw Jiang Haoran. He immediately stood up and walked over:
“Second Brother, why are you here? Wendong has already left.”
Jiang Haoran glanced at Jiang Haoming and said, “There are some things I need to do here. You can play your own game. Don’t worry about me.”
Jiang Haoran obviously didn’t want to talk to Jiang Haoming. He had rushed over because he had received the news that his Fourth Brother wanted to make a move on Wendong. This place was his private property. Of course, Jiang Haoming didn’t know about it. Therefore, he had received the news immediately.
Previously, when Jiang Wendong had said that his Fourth Brother wanted him to play here, he had told Wendong that if there was anything, he could just tell the manager on duty directly.
Unexpectedly, he had just received a call from Wendong saying that Fourth Brother was indeed going to make a move on him. Fortunately, he was saved by Xiaoxiao. Moreover, this didn’t count. Jiang Haoming was interrupted by something good. It looked like he was going to make a move on Xiaoxiao. Jiang Wendong asked him to come over immediately.
He rushed over in a hurry. Both sides were eating quietly in the restaurant. After exchanging a few words with Jiang Haoming, he walked directly to Shen Xiaoxiao’s side.
Jiang Haoming looked at Jiang Haoran’s actions with a puzzled expression. Second Brother really had a close relations.h.i.+p with Shen Xiaoxiao.
“Why is Big Brother Jiang here? Wendong has already left.”
“En, I know. I probably missed him. Xiaoxiao’s appet.i.te looks good. The taste here seems to suit Xiaoxiao’s appet.i.te.”
“The taste is indeed not bad. Big Brother Jiang’s spending is getting bigger and bigger. The environment here is also very good.”
“Second Uncle Jiang.”
“Second Uncle Jiang.”
The two children had lived in the Jiang family for a period of time, so they naturally knew Jiang Haoran. Jiang Haoran was always more patient with the children. He reached out and touched the heads of the two children.
“There are ice sculptures at night. There are a lot of cute little animals. Do you two want to go and see them?”
“Yes, we’ll go after we finish eating.”
Jiang Haoran smiled and said, “Okay, Second Uncle will get someone to take you there after we finish eating.”
“Big Brother Jiang, have a seat. Do you want to eat some?”
“No, I’ve already eaten. I owe Xiaoxiao another favor today.”
“Miss, we’ll bring the two children up to change first. You two take your time to chat. President Jiang, excuse us.”
Seeing that the two seemed to have something to say and took the initiative to leave with the children, Dark 2 glanced at the two of them and didn’t say anything. He stood up with 19.
Jiang Haoran and 19 nodded as a form of greeting. After seeing the two of them leave, they sat down where 19 had sat and said to Shen Xiaoxiao, “Why do I feel that 19’s att.i.tude toward me has become much better? Am I overthinking things?”
Overthinking things? Of course, it wasn’t overthinking things, but 19’s att.i.tude toward Jiang Haoran had indeed become a little better. This was something that had never happened before. Not to mention worrying about her own safety, 19 was actually relieved that he was here. This made Shen Xiaoxiao very surprised.
What was this kid thinking?
At this moment, the person who had the same thoughts as Shen Xiaoxiao was Dark 2. After watching the two children enter the room and change their clothes, he asked 19, “I say, don’t tell me you’re creating an opportunity for them?”
“Oh, you can tell? Is it that obvious? Then I’ll do it more discreetly next time.”
Dark 2 did not expect 19 to admit it directly. What was going on? Was 19 crazy?
“What’s wrong with you? How can you set them up?”
“Why can’t I?”
Dark 2 was shocked by 19’s G.o.dly logic. If Boss knew about this, would 19 still manage to keep his life?
“If Boss knew, 19, would you still…”
“So what if he knows? He’s not the only man in this world who is worthy of Xiaoxiao. Instead, I think Jiang Haoran is more suitable for Miss than him.”
“How can you have such thoughts? Jiang Haoran is more than ten years older than Miss, and his son is already so old.”
“Yan Kuan is also nearly ten years older than Miss. Age is not a problem. The most important man must know the cold and the hot. Every time something happens, it’s because of Yan Kuan. Moreover, he’s never been by the mother and children’s side. I don’t think such a person is a good husband and father.”
“But it is not good for you to interfere like this, right? Moreover, is Miss willing?”
