Chapter 182 (The End) (1)
Seeing that he had really angered Shen Xi by being so obnoxious, Jiang Ci guiltily raised his eyes, then silently coughed with his head down.
"Mom called me upstairs to take you downstairs for hot pot."
Shen Xi glanced at him, and Jiang Ci unconsciously sat up straight.
Have you been feeling anything different lately?
Jiang Ci asked in confusion, "What's different about this feeling?"
Something's not right. The plot clearly stated that Jiang Ci would regain his past memories soon.
She also wanted to ask him what kind of transaction he had made with the system.
It's too perfect, so the cost is correspondingly high.
"Turn around, I need to get dressed."
"Oh."
Jiang Ci blinked, tugged at his collar, and turned around.
Shen Xi quickly put on a rabbit-themed loungewear set. Halfway through, she turned her head and found that Jiang Ci had actually covered his eyes with his hands.
Is it really that obedient?
"Alright, let's go downstairs for dinner."
Jiang Ci lifted his eyelids and looked at her wearing pajamas that made her look like a baby, then looked at himself in a suit and tie, looking like a thirty-year-old social elite.
In summary, the four words are clearly mismatched.
He unconsciously clicked his tongue inwardly.
I need to start thinking about what to wear from now on.
……
The two went downstairs together.
A matte black marble table was set up in the center of the hall, on which various fresh ingredients were displayed.
The chef we hired had excellent knife skills and presented the food beautifully.
Hua Lan and the old lady looked like sisters, though they were only a few years apart. The two sat in a corner of the sofa, their heads close together as they looked at their phones and talked about something.
Hua Lan smiled mysteriously, and the old woman smiled too.
"At first I thought the old lady wouldn't get along with Ms. Hua."
Shen Xi did have this concern at first, after all, the differences in living environment would lead to differences in communication and thinking.
Jiang Ci calmly pulled out a chair:
"Their common topic is us. Ms. Hua actually has a very good personality; she can get along with anyone as long as she wants. Grandma is also a broad-minded person. It's normal that she and my mother are compatible."
Shen Xi nodded, agreeing.
Speaking of which, where is her little one?
Have you seen Xiaoman?
Shen Xi turned to Jiang Ci and asked.
Jiang Ci raised his eyebrows, thought for a moment, and then, remembering his own child, he couldn't help but pinch the bridge of his nose.
“When I came back, he was guarding that box of ice cream like he was playing guerrilla warfare. As soon as I approached, he immediately slipped away, and now he's probably hiding with Manman.”
Xiaoman brought a husky home from the pet store.
After saying that, he gave Shen Xi a meaningful look.
Shen Xi felt uncomfortable being stared at; the little brat was much nicer to her.
She had long forgotten the drowsy and nauseous feeling she had when she was on an IV drip for a cold the previous week.
Jiang Ci raised an eyebrow and remained silent.
"Xixi, I'm planning to go out for a while, so don't worry about me."
The old woman walked up to Shen Xi without anyone noticing.
Shen Xi naturally supported it; she hadn't been willing to let her grandmother go out with her before.
She deliberately complained, "Grandma, you think I'm a burden to you and don't want to take me with you, right?"
The old woman smiled kindly: "Yes and no, your stamina is not as good as this old woman's."
Shen Xi felt as if she had been shot in the knee.
Shen Xi is a typical poor student in physical education, who has to stop halfway through the 800-meter run and walk the remaining 400 meters.
The old woman said, "You young people all have your own things to do, don't worry about me. I'll join a tour group and go out with them."
She squeezed Shen Xi's palm.
Shen Xi looked at the crisscrossing wrinkles on the old woman's face, which were the hardships and life experiences she had gone through. The old woman's skin was already loose, but she had never even left that poor town more than a few times.
She looked at the white-haired old woman in front of her and felt a pang of sadness. The old woman was so old.
Shen Xi nodded: "Grandma, remember to let me see the tour group you signed up for. It's fine if you go on your own, but I need to know Grandma's itinerary throughout the whole trip."
"I'm very worried about you."
The old woman was very happy, saying, "Everyone gets old eventually. I'm lucky to be able to see you get married and have children. At least I'm still conscious and can remember you. Xixi, Grandma can live alone too."
Shen Xi's eyes were sore; her grandmother never wanted to be a burden or a source of worry for her.
After the grandmother and granddaughter stopped talking, the man with his legs crossed spoke up: "Grandma, I understand your thoughts. I'll compromise. When you travel, you can take the watch I gave you. This watch was specially made for Jiangdu. It can do simple location tracking and test your health and safety. Most importantly, it can be used to call for help in an emergency. We'll all feel at ease if you wear it, and you can travel with peace of mind."
After listening, the old woman looked with relief at the man who was sincerely advising her and the girl whose eyes were red.
She was truly relieved.
After everyone finished discussing the matter, the hot pot was ready.
Jiang Ci found Xiaoman on the lawn inside the villa. The little rascal was huddled in his doghouse, and when he was found, he was still tightly clutching an ice cream that was almost completely melted.
Jiang Ci was so angry when he saw it that he laughed.
Fortunately, the situation was special today, and Jiang Ci released him after confiscating his ice cream.
The little brat is so angry he's practically fuming; he's never even been as good as his own father.
The whole family sat neatly at the dining table.
Midway through, Ms. Hua blinked at the old woman several times, her eyes almost welling up with tears.
The elderly woman couldn't resist the temptation of Ms. Hua's offer of a three-year unlimited luxury cruise.
After finishing her meal, she asked Shen Xi, "When does Xi Xi plan to get her marriage certificate and get married?"
Under the enormous diamond chandelier, all eyes were on her.
Shen Xi casually wiped her mouth and said, "Autumn is coming, let's do it this year."
To them, this statement was illogical, but those who could understand it should be able to grasp Shen Xi's meaning.
Everyone was overjoyed to receive the exact time.
Something good is going to happen this year!
……
Jiang Ci regained his memory on the day of the Beginning of Autumn.
The weather was just right that day, neither too hot nor too cold.
Shen Xi dressed up today, wearing a mid-length skirt that didn't show her knees, paired with sheer tights, and a maroon knitted sweater. She looked like a student.
She drove to the Jiang Group and went straight to the top floor.
After Jiang Ci finished his meeting, he saw the person sitting in his office and walked over with a smile: "What brings you here today?"
Shen Xi didn't sit down; she casually took out a small red notebook from her pocket.
It wasn't 8:30 AM; the sky was as bright as day.
With her back to the sunlight, she smiled gently: "Jiang Ci, I'd like to invite you to our wedding."
