Chapter 17: Madam, the eldest young master is missing again
Jiang Li glanced at the nervous Jiang Shixuan behind him, and handed the red tassel gun to the servant on the side.
"Okay, let's go eat."
With that, she strode forward.
Jiang Shixuan wanted to grab her hand and stopped in mid-air.
Aunt Zhang was still waiting in place, looking at him with a smile, "Isn't the third young master going to eat?" ”
Looking at the several pairs of eyes cast around him, Jiang Shixu suddenly felt difficult to breathe, and subconsciously wanted to escape.
Flee into a room where he was alone, with no sound or color.
However, an ethereal voice passed through these "terrifying" gazes and clearly entered his ears.
"Timing, come here."
Passing over the layers of obstacles, he saw Jiang Li.
The girl who seemed to glow softly all over her body.
Like his savior.
He hurriedly ran to the side of the savior.
Jiang Li naturally took his hand and walked down the path to the restaurant.
Jiang Shixu was stunned for a moment.
He had always hated being touched, but now he wasn't uncomfortable at all.
On the contrary, the warmth of her palm made him feel extremely warm.
It's like being wrapped tightly in the warm spring sun.
Jiang Shixu, who had completely calmed down, looked at her seriously for the first time.
She was half a head shorter than him, and from his vantage point she could see her serene and beautiful side face and slightly fluttering eyelashes.
The light under the eyes is unusually soft, but there is a penetrating power.
Inexplicably attractive.
Jiang Shixu lowered his head slightly, and his eyes fell on her holding his hand again, and there was a burst of warmth in his heart.
-
Inside the restaurant.
Lin Manru, who had already sat down, was so shocked that she almost didn't throw away the chopsticks in her hand when she saw her daughter walking in with Jiang Shixu.
"When, timing? How did you get up? ”
Hearing the inquiry, Jiang Shixuan became nervous again, and he retreated and hid behind Jiang Li.
Jiang Li didn't force him to answer Lin Manru, but just explained it to him in a warm voice.
"He's hungry, I'll cook him a bowl of noodles."
Lin Manru still didn't react.
The last time she saw this child was half a year ago.
He has always been reluctant to communicate with people, why is it so abnormal today?
But it's also a good thing.
He was willing to go out and eat, presumably his condition was starting to improve.
So should she tell her siblings the good news?
When Lin Manru was still thinking hard, Jiang Li had already come out with a bowl of hot noodles.
Jiang Shixu was like a small tail, always following her.
Jiang Li also seemed to understand that it would be difficult for him to come out for a while, so he put his noodles in the most inconspicuous position in the corner of the table.
"Eat it while it's hot."
Jiang Shixu's eyes twitched for a moment, then nodded obediently, picked up the chopsticks and ate.
The familiar and warm smell completely reassured him, and he even automatically ignored the people who came and went around him.
Lin Manru sighed in surprise and pretended to be lost.
"I've been a mother for more than ten years and haven't tasted what my daughter made by herself, so we still have a good time."
Hearing this, Jiang Shixuan instantly put down his chopsticks nervously.
Jiang Li glanced at him, "Mother, don't scare him. ”
Lin Manru quickly changed her words, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, the timing, the eldest aunt didn't mean it, you can continue to eat." ”
Jiang Shixu carefully picked up the chopsticks at this time.
Halfway through the meal, Lin Manru sighed worriedly.
"I don't know how your brother is doing outside, whether he ate on time."
Jiang Li's eyelashes trembled, "Hasn't Jiang Yan come back yet?" ”
"Nope." Lin Manru said worriedly, "Your Uncle Jiang told me this morning, saying that he couldn't be contacted at all, and this kid started to play and disappear again." ”
"Li Li, do you think I should continue to freeze his bank card and force him back?"
"No, you don't." Jiang Li replied, "This is only a symptom but not a root cause." ”
I have to find a way to make Jiang Yan completely honest.
Jiang Shixuan in the corner had been quietly listening to the conversation between the two, and after hearing Jiang Yan's "glorious deeds", he pulled his lips slightly.
It seems that he is more worry-free.
Stay at home every day and don't run anywhere.
In this way, Jiang Li should like him more.

It's night.
Orcas Club.
This is one of the largest and most luxurious entertainment venues in the capital, attracting many poor people to spend money here because of its high-end facilities and services.
The whole building is built in great luxury, with bright lights and flowers.
The VIP box on the top floor is even more so.
Under the dim light, there are layers of color, and the noisy and rhythmic music is exciting.
There are all kinds of gambling cards and billiards, and the drunken gold fans are staged vividly.
Jiang Yan sat on the sofa in the middle, listening to the chatter of the people around him, while gently shaking the wine glass in his hand.
The neckline of his shirt was wide open, revealing his collarbones and muscles, which were fluent and explosive, and the burgundy fabric cast a crimson on his cold white skin, adding to the temptation.
The waitress in a sexy bunny suit stepped forward and bent down to light the cigarette he was holding in his other hand.
The blue-gray smoke slowly rose above the man's wrist bones and permeated his evil and demonic face.
Jiang Yan narrowed his peach blossom eyes, hooked his thin lips and hugged the waitress in his arms.
After taking a puff of the sinking nicotine, he slowly exhaled a circle of smoke.
Seeing this, the man in the suit next to him immediately laughed and said, "It's been three days of playing, Jiang Shao's interest is still so high, it seems that you are very happy that the marriage with the Qiao family is annulled." ”
"Nonsense." Jiang Yan raised his hand and dusted off the cigarette butt, his eyebrows were a little uninhibited, "Lao Tzu doesn't want to marry a woman I don't know for no reason." ”
"Yes, yes, yes." The man in the suit said and added some wine to his glass, "How can the Qiao family's vulgar powder match Shangjiang Shao?" Anyway, it has to be at Su Yinwan's level. ”
The person on the other side immediately glanced at him.
"You really don't have the eyesight to see that Su Yinwan, that woman is high-spirited on weekdays, she refuses us Jiang Shao again and again, and then turns her head and follows the guy Shang Shaojing, how is it worth it?"
Jiang Yan's brows furrowed almost imperceptibly, and the interest in his eyes faded a little.
But the people around them acted as if they didn't notice it, and continued to open the conversation between the two people.
Jiang Yan snorted irritably, raised his hand and crushed the cigarette butt into the ashtray.
The man in the suit stopped his mouth, grabbed Jiang Yan's shoulder with a haha, and then raised his hand to call in a team of glamorous and sultry escorts.
"Jiang Shao, don't be angry, since you're here, let's have fun, come on, come on, you all come over for me to talk to Jiang Shao."
A dozen girls dressed in different costumes sat down in empty seats.
Someone in the crowd complained dissatisfiedly, "Huo Shao, are you okay, why is it the same every time you pick a woman?" With heavy makeup, Lao Tzu has long been tired of it. ”
"That's right." Immediately, another voice answered, "Can you find something naturally beautiful?" ”
"Hey, when it comes to youth and beauty, I think of one person." Huo Ziyang burped, and said with a puffed face, "Jiang Shao's sister, she is quite naturally beautiful, you don't know, at his engagement banquet, that girl, tsk, amazing." ”
"Huo Ziyang, I'm afraid you haven't drunk too much, right? Jiang Shao's sister? Jiang Li? That ghost-like girl painted all day long is also worthy of the words "natural beauty"? ”。
"Let Jiang Shao bring it out another day, won't you know? I saw it with my own eyes that day, Jiang Li's girl didn't look worse than any of the women here, her figure-"
