Chapter 151: 127 Trial Marriage First Night, deep down fondness, learning to get close Chapter 151: 127 Trial Marriage First Night, deep down fondness, learning to get close After dinner, Tang sat on the sofa, leaning back and talking with the Jiang Family's old madam about going to Peach Garden to watch an opera once the old master was fully recovered from his surgery.

"...After the New Year, there will be snew plays, and then we can all go together," the old madam said with a smile.

“I heard that her son found a partner, too? I haven't seen the kid, but his reputation out there isn't good. He's not been seen for a long time, how did he find a wife..." Tang asked in a low voice.

Upon hearing this, the old madam couldn't help but click her tongue, "I don't understand these things, but even his son has found a match, and look at our family, we look decent enough on the outside, how come..." As she spoke, her eyes fell on Jiang Yanting.

"Oh dear-these past years, each family in Beijing is having one celebration after another, yet our turn somehow never comes, it's so frustrating." At that moment, Jiangjiang was sprawled on the carpet, playing with a puzzle. Jiang Yanting lifted his foot and kicked his little bottom, "Go upstairs, I'll take you for a bath." "Huh?" Jiangjiang looked confused. He had just started playing, "I don't want to bathe now." "You want to bathe!" Before Jiangjiang could say another word, he was scooped up and carried straight upstairs.

With a cold snort, the old madam helplessly shook her head, "Old Tang, look at this, every tI bring this up, off he runs." "It's the swith all kids..." Tang Wan and Jiang Jinsang sat to one side, simply listening quietly, but they hadn't expected that the spotlight would suddenly turn on them.

"Wanwan, Xiaowu, you two should also go rest soon, it's late, and you've been out all day, you must be tired," the old madam told them.

"It's okay, not too tired, I'd like to sit a while longer," Tang Wan replied with a forced smile, feeling awkward as if she suddenly assumed a different identity everywhere.

"Isn't it better to rest in your room? What's the point of sitting here?" the old madam teased, "Old Tang, look at these two kids, why have they suddenly becstrangers to each other." "It does seem a bit awkward." "Doesn't it look like they're newlyweds..." Tang Wan sat to one side, wishing she had a shell like Lord Wansui, so she could just shrink into it and hide away. "Wanwan..." Jiang Jinsang suddenly leaned in close, lowering his voice, "Wait a few minutes for me, we'll go back to the room together." "Ah?" Tang Wan looked perplexed, still not recovered, as he had already stood up and left, though she wasn't sure if he was going to the backyard or to the washroom.

Seeing the two of them like this, the old madam couldn't help but tease, “Already starting to whisper to each other, tsk tsk-" Tang Wan hung her head, just wishing Jiang Jinsang would return quickly.

** After dinner, Tang Yunxian called Zhou Zhongqing once more, simply to discuss the old master's decision regarding the surgery.

"...Doctor Zhou, I'm really sorry to disturb you so late," Tang Yunxian said to him politely, his words full of respect.

"Mr. Tang, you're too polite, treating patients is my duty," Zhou Zhongqing replied, understanding in his heart that the old couple's plan had succeeded.

He was an accomplice and didn't deserve Tang Yunxian's gratitude, feeling guilty about it.

"We'll still need to trouble you in the future." Tang Yunxian thanked him again before hanging up. Turning around, he noticed Jiang Jinsang had appeared behind him at spoint, "Why aren't you resting so late?" "I wanted to talk with you for a bit." Tang Yunxian guessed what he wanted to discuss and smiled, but still asked, "About what?"

"Regarding the trial marriage with Wanwan and me, I know you're probably uncomfortable about it, but given the circumfistances at the time..." Jiang Jinsang pursed his lips, "But rest assured, I know my limits. I am clear about what should be done and what shouldn't." "You can't be blamed for this." Tang Yunxian chuckled softly, "My father has always liked you. This time, it was just an excuse for him to bring you two together, that's all." Tang Yunxian wasn't naive, things started off normally, but towards the end, the old master's act was too obvious, and he could see through it...

However, up to this point, he didn't know that Zhou Zhongqing was also in cahoots, so he didn't suspect the old master's illness and felt that Jiang Jinsang was also a victim who had been forced into all this, and he felt somewhat sorry for him.

"I originally wanted to find an opportunity to talk to you, considering you're a victim.tod. My e father's temper, sometimes it really can make people jump, I'm afraid you and Wanwan will be inconvenienced during this period..." "Not at all." Jiang Jinsang was more than willing to spend twith Tang Wan, certainly not feeling inconvenienced.

"Don't worry, once my father has the surgery, I'll take care of this matter. It won't cause any further trouble for you." Jiang Jinsang just smiled...

But by the tTang Yunxian thought to take care of it, it might truly be too late.
