Chapter 479: 305 Wuye killed in retaliation, do you care so much about her? Someone finished posing that deadly question, and the hospital room fell into an unspeakable silence.

Shuci stood unmoved at the door. Outside, several people from the Huo Family were exchanging looks, believing their master's question to be incredibly childish. Ever since Miss Shen had criticized the type of books he gifted last time, he seemed determined to prove something, constantly stuffing books into Jinsang's hands...

And today, he even asked such a question.

As his wife would say, "He's simply too idle!" Tang Wan stood there, puzzled. Books and health products? One nourishes the mind, and the other strengthens the body-where's the conflict? Jiang Jinsang leaned against the headboard and slightly raised his eyelids to look at the person standing before him. Everyone thought he would choose one over the other, but instead, he countered with a question, "If the gifts were of the stype, it would be easy to compare, but how can you judge when they have nothing to do with each other?" "I know you're competitive, but even if I choose you now, what honor is there in winning against a girl almost ten years younger?" "Furthermore, so many people are giving gifts. Why do you single out the one given by my younger maternal aunt for comparison?" "Old Huo, do you care about her that much?" Tang Wan was wide-eyed. What did he mean by that? "Jiang Jinsang!" The man's voice was rough and carried a hint of warning.

Someone was always cunning in his maneuvers, but he hadn't expected that with just a few words-not only deflecting the subject but also slinging mud at himself and Shuci-they were clearly innocent.

But Jiang Jinsang remained unphased, chuckling, "I'll be discharged in a few days. If you do something to me, I'm afraid my grandma might storm over to your place..." The Huo Family members suppressed their laughter. Indeed, when it cto cunning tactics, no one could outdo Jinsang.

Their master's words were indeed inappropriate. The two were not close at all. By dragging Miss Shen into the conversation out of the blue, he inevitably led others to overthink.

Such thoughts from Jinsang were only too normal.

No problem at all.

"Old Huo, a man's feelings for a woman usually start with concern. When he cares at heart, he'll notice her every action, and slowly he will..." Tang Wan was even more baffled. What on earth had she missed?! Could it be that there was a reason why Brother Huo left last tand my aunt chased after him? One should never underestimate a woman's imagination. In just a few seconds, while everyone else felt an eternity passing, she had conjured up a mess of things in her mind.

Shuci was just as bewildered.

Counting today, she had only met this aloof man three times, without exchanging a single word. When had they...

How could this man possibly be interested in her? It was utter nonsense.

Jiang Jinsang adjusted the thin blanket on the bed and looked at the man before him. His lips were tightly sealed, and although his face and demeanor seemed normal, his eyes were cold as December's frost, ready to freeze one's blood to ice.

Yet Jiang Jinsang, sitting on the bed, casually propped himself up and looked at the tall figure before him: "Do you needto make a choice now? If so, I'll pick my younger aunt. After all, I'm not feeling well right now, and health products are more important to me." The focus of the conversation had already been shifted; whatever choice he made was inconsequential.

Just then, as if only now noticing Shuci, Jiang Jinsang said, "Wanwan, the aunt is standing at the doorway. Why don't you invite her in?" Tang Wan cback to her senses and asked Shuci into the room. The atmosphere inside the hospital room grew even tenser...

"Um... Brother Huo, Aunt, please take a seat. I'll pour you a glass of water." Tang Wan still felt strangely out of her depth-everything was so sudden, what was even happening? "I have other matters. I'm leaving." The man said and left immediately.

The footsteps of the Huo Family receded into the distance before Jiang Jinsang could no longer hold back a low chuckle. Turning his head to look at Shuci, he said, "Sorry, he and I were just joking. Don't take it to heart." "I'm fine." Shuci wasn't foolish; that man couldn't possibly like her. His words were like a heavy blow that left her a bit dazed.

"You were joking?" Tang Wan frowned.

"What else?" Jiang Jinsang was not one to take things lying down. He had been on the receiving end of that biting tongue several times without any retort. Now faced with this deadly question, how could he remain indifferent? He was definitely going to pick the health products. She was Tang Wan's maternal relative, an elder, and he also didn't want to offend Shuci. So the outcwould be...

He was bound to offend someone! Since he was going to offend someone anyway, he might as well drag the other person down with him...

If he had to drown, he wouldn't make it comfortable for them.

"I actually thought..." Tang Wan had already imagined a whole tic scene, and now you're tellingit was all a joke? "He was joking with me, asking how to choose between books and health products, wantingto offend someone, so I just teased him back..." Jiang Jinsang said with a smile as he looked at Shen Shuci, "If I've offended you or made you uncomfortable, I apologize." "No problem." Shen Shuci was not stupid; she had been a bit stunned by Jiang Jinsang's earlier remarks, but now that she had regained her composure, she understood why he had done it.

She wasn't one to hold a grudge, especially since someone's question was really mean-spirited; it was normal for Jiang Jinsang to fight back.

"By the way, you just mentioned Brother Huo is ten years older than my aunt?" Tang Wan knew he was older than Jiang Yanting, but she had never inquired about his exact date of birth.

"It should be about that." Jiang Jinsang had successfully made someone lose face, smiling as he hooked his lips and continued to lower his head to read.

However, as someone headed back, glancing out the window with an expressionless face, everyone knew deep down he was extremely annoyed.

Planning to trap Fifth Brother Jiang, but ended up being counter-killed! The Jiang brothers were known for their slick maneuvers-it was clear to all that recently, since Fifth Brother Jiang started dating, he had becmuch more restrained. Yet when he made his move, it was still very formidable.

The Huo family, when thinking about their own master losing face, couldn't help but want to laugh; after all, there were very few people in the world who could make him suffer in silence.

"Do you find it funny to seeat a disadvantage?" The man's deep voice, when it arose, sounded like a demonic chant that made one's scalp tingle.

"How could we? We think Fifth Brother Jiang went too far. You just casually asked whether he liked books or health products, and he ended up dragging in a bunch of nonsense and even saying you have feelings for Miss Shen..." "That's simply slanderous! It's too much." "Indeed, sir, you kept sending him books graciously, yet Fifth Brother Jiang spread such rumors to tarnish your reputation. We all feel aggrieved on your behalf." The co-pilot and driver echoed each other.

"Feel aggrieved for me?" The man's fingers gently massaged his knee.

"Yes, we all think what Fifth Brother Jiang said was too excessive..." "Then go take revenge for me, beat him up." |||| The two were silent, feigning death—mumbling to themselves that it was best to speak less.

Tang Wan still thought that he was difficult to get along with. Jiang Jinsang said it wasjust a joke, but it probably had offended him. She feared he wouldn't be coming around again soon, but to her surprise, while the man didn't come... The books did! And there were even more than before.

Jiang Jinsang didn't mind; since he wanted to give them and it wasn't his own money being spent, he accepted with gratitude and planned to have Jiang Cuo and Jiang Jiu pack them up and send them back to the old house.

After Zhou Zhongqing performed one final checkup on him, he finally agreed that Jiang Jinsang could be discharged from the hospital.

On the day of discharge, worried about the crowd and the hustle, only the brothers Jiang Yanting and Jiang Chengsi from the hospital's family went. One helped with the procedures while Jiang Chengsi took care of packing the belongings.

The day before, Tang Wan had specially bought ssmall gifts to give to the medical staff who had been helping take care of Jiang Jinsang.

"Congratulations on being discharged." Everyone offered their well-wishes.

"Thank you, you've all worked hard." Having been hospitalized for so long, he naturally had a good relationship with the medical staff.

"This is our job. If you two get married, remember to invite us to the wedding. We can meet privately, but let's not meet again in the hospital." Someone joked.

"Definitely." Tang Wan had already discussed with Jiang Jinsang that if they ever got married, they would surely invite them.

The discharge procedures were completed by 8:30, but with the tspent packing, it took another hour. Around 10 o'clock, they were ready to leave the hospital...

But when Jiang Jinsang saw Jiang Chengsi wheeling out a wheelchair, the corner of his mouth twitched: "Fourth Brother, are my legs not working?"

"Grandma said you're too weak and need this. I bought it specially for you; it's a folding model, that can fit in the trunk." Jiang Vinsang's surgery had been major, and even though he had recovered well enough to walk around the corridor a couple of times, he still couldn't stand for long... "Sit down. If anything happens on the way hfrom the hospital, Grandma will killand Chengsi." Jiang Yanting stared at him.

Having no choice, Jiang Jinsang resigned himself to sitting in the wheelchair...

There's a kind of cold that is when your grandmother thinks you're cold.

And there's a kind of incapacity when your grandmother thinks you're incapable...

His surgery had been a complex case, known to the whole hospital staff. On the day of his discharge, many from different departments, who had been involved in his surgery, cto say goodbye and take pictures with him. As he left the ward, snurses lined up to send him off. Jiang Jinsang coughed softly and really thought... There was no need for this! Share to your friends
