Capitulo 642: 405 Love has nothing to do with age (3 updates)

Shen Shuci had just experienced a “coerced” blind date and received what seemed like a confession, leaving her

emotions unsettled, yet reality didn’t afford her much tto contemplate.

Because Jiang Yanting’s wedding date was approaching, Old Tang along with Tang Yunxian were soon coming to

Beijing, and even the elder couple from the Shen Family planned to join the excitement.

If Jiang Yanting and Shen Zhixian were to marry and have children under normal circumstances, there would

undoubtedly be more than one celebration party, like a one-month celebration for the newborn. However, given

their unusual situation, they had been swept together, and the Jiang and Shen Families were determined to have

a grand celebration.

Relatives and friends were all invited, and it was natural for the elders of the Shen Family to receive an invitation

as well.

In principle, whether the elders of the Shen family attended Jiang Yanting’s wedding wasn’t a big deal. Coming to

Beijing for the wedding was secondary; the main purpose was to see how Shen Shuci was doing.

The Jiang Family had been very busy lately. Sometimes Jiang Yanting and Shen Zhixian were too occupied to look

after the kids, so the task of caring for them fell to Jiang Chengsi.

With so many reporters watching the Jiang Family, if he took the kids to the racing track, there was no guarantee

that Jiang Yanting wouldn't find out from a widespread news story first, and they worried that the children might

get photographed by reporters. In the end, they had no choice but to take them to the Huo Family's place.

It was safe, and they had a big yard for the kids to play in.

But upon their arrival, they immediately saw kittens basking in the sunlight on the corridor. When the cat saw

strangers, it darted back into the house. Huo Qingi, with his long arms, scooped it up into his embrace.

“Wow, | thought it was a stray cat from somewhere. Is it yours?” Jiang Chengsi hadn't been to the Huo Family's

for a while.

“Do you have a problem with that?”

“No.” What objection could he possibly have?

There were dogs, horses, and now cats...

Was he planning to open a zoo or what?

But he caught a glimpse of the cat supplies in the corner of the living room out of the corner of his eye, raised an

eyebrow slightly... My goodness, what a taste.

When did he ever have such a girly heart?

“Uncle Huo, can | pet it?” Taotao was quite interested in the kitten. Jiangjiang seemed more reserved, standing

aside and watching with bright, curious eyes but not taking the initiative to say anything.

“Sure.” Huo Qinqi also worried that the cat wouldn't recognize her and might get hurt, so he held it firmly to let

her stroke its fur a few times.

Jiangjiang couldn't resist and also petted it a couple of times.

It was fluffy and quite comfortable.

The cat realized they bore it no ill will and allowed them to pet it.

“Uncle Huo, how old is this cat?” Jiangjiang had never had a pet before. The creature he was the most familiar

with was the tortoise belonging to his devilish second uncle.

But such cold-blooded creatures with hard shells, only knowing how to tuck in their heads and hide, were

nowhere near as cute as a cat.

“Over 40 days old.”

“Can | take it hwith me?”

“No.” He was mercilessly rejected. Jiangjiang bit his lip and remained silent.

“Uncle, what's the cat's name?” Taotao was curious.

“It doesn’t have a nyet.”

Taotao immediately got excited, “Then can | give it a name? How about calling it ‘Little Orange’?”

“That's not a good name.” Once again, he faced an unyielding rejection.

“Uncle, what do you plan to nit?” Taotao persisted.

“I haven't decided yet.”

“It doesn’t have a name, right? Is ‘Huo Little Orange’ not a nice name?” Taotao thought its orange fur made the

nperfect, utterly adorable.

Huo Qingi kept a straight face: “It’s not nice.”

The siblings were cute, well-behaved, and smart, likable to anyone who met them. Held dear by the Jiang Family,

their requests weren't unreasonable and rarely got refused.

Now, their requests were being turned down one after the other, and they faced successive rejections.

Jiang Chengsi watched as their spirits instantly deflated and couldn't help but laugh out loud, nudging Huo Qinqi,

“They're just kids, can’t you speak more gently?”

Huo Qingi gave him an indifferent glance.

“Forget it, keep your stern face, | would be scared into having a heart attack if you suddenly turned gentle.

Everyone's so busy lately, and I'm the only one free to take care of the kids...” Jiang Chengsi expressed his

helplessness.

“Is Xiaowu also busy?” Huo Qingi asked casually.

“With Grandpa Tang and my father-in-law coming, as well as my sister-in-law’s grandparents, how can they not

be busy? My second brother is busy getting married, there are bound to be things he can’t attend to, so Xiaowu

has to cby herself.” Jiang Chengsi clicked his tongue, “By the way, | heard that Master Xi set up a blind date

for my aunt. You were there that day.”

“What about it?”

“I was just curious. After all, my aunt has a partner. Not only Xiaowu but all of us Jiang brothers have to call him

‘Uncle’ according to seniority. I'm curious about what kind of man Master Xi introduced.”

Jiang Chengsi said with a smile.

“It's not that I'm being nosy, but if she finds someone insignificant, should I call him uncle?”

“Let that man dream on.”

Jiang Chengsi was naturally mischievous and naughty, and if Shen Shuci had poor taste and ended up with some

insignificant fellow, he wouldn't look up to him, and naturally, he wouldn't want to call him uncle.

“Old Huo, how is her blind date? Tellabout it.” Jiang Chengsi was gossiping out of boredom.

“I don’t remember, can’t recall.”

“Your memory is so good...”

“Why should | remember someone inconsequential, or have any impression of them?”

Jiang Chengsi snorted coldly, “You're the boss, so whatever you say is right.”

“But her parents definitely know about her blind date, otherwise Master Xi wouldn't take it upon himself to

arrange such things. She’s so young, why is there a need to hurry?”

“You think she’s very young?”

“She’s ten years younger than you, what do you think?”

The Huo Family was listening on the side, heart pounding with fear. If the situation hadn't been so inappropriate,

they really wanted to retort at Jiang Chengsi:

What's wrong with being ten years younger! Does love have anything to do with age?

It's perfectly normal for an older husband to have a younger wife!

ok

In the following days, the whole Jiang Family was busy, which meant Jiang Chengsi rarely took the kids to the

Huo Family.

After work, Shen Shuci would also go there to help out a bit. She hadn't seen Huo Qingi much either until she

heard about him through Tang Wan.

The next morning, Shen Family’s elders were to arrive in Beijing, and they discussed going to the airport to pick

them up together, and then arranging accommodations for them. Shen Shuci’s rented room was too small to

accommodate them.

“Grandpa and Grandma are coming pretty early,” she said. There was still about a week left until the wedding

banquet.

“The weather is good now; they can enjoy Beijing for a few extra days,” Shen Shuci replied happily, knowing her

parents were coming. “How about we arrange for them to stay at the hotel where the wedding banquet will be

held? The environment is nice there, and it's close to where I live.”

The hotel for Yanting and Zhixian’s wedding wasn’t in the city center; instead, it was near Hexi, practically a

small resort village.

“That would work,” said Tang Wan, who had the sthought. “By the way, I’ve finished the Cyan Feather for

your sister-in-law’s wedding. Letshow it to you.”

Cyan Feather was already exquisite and luxurious, especially since it was for a wedding. Tang Wan had put a lot

of effort into it, naturally making it very glamorous.

“She’ll definitely look beautiful wearing it,” Shen Shuci said, examining the headpiece.

Huo Qingi would usually not notify anyone in advance when he returned to the base, but this tit involved

Yanting’s marriage, so he would definitely inform them ahead of tif anything unexpected arose.

“Really...” Shen Shuci laughed and pursed her lips but didn’t ask further.

He's turned her life upside down and then disappeared. Now he’s leaving again?

He's usually so quiet, why must he act so terribly in these situations?

The more Shen Shuci thought, the more agitated she felt. After parking in her complex, just as she entered the

building and the sensor light con, that familiar figure appeared in front of her...

...holding an orange cat in his arms.

This was the first tShen Shuci saw him in uniform. Clad in military attire, he was the very picture of a

dashing soldier. Even in silence, just standing there, he exuded an air of sternness.

Shen Shuci didn’t consider herself superficial or particularly fond of uniforms, but he looked so impressive in that

outfit, and she was very aware that he was watching her, too...

The look in his eyes was warm and intense.

However, the cage and other items at his feet, along with the cat in his arms, clashed with his cool and serious

demeanor. The kitten in his arms mewed softly at Shen Shuci twice.

“You're here late, what's up?”

“I have to return to the base for a while; the cat will stay with you.”

“Your family doesn’t have anyone at home?” There were so many people at the Huo Family, why leave the cat

with her?

“Just a bunch of clumsy men.”

Huo Family: “...”

There was a steady stream of people in the community, and his stature alone drew attention. Wearing such attire

made everyone passing by take a second look.

They couldn't always stand in front of the building to talk.

Shen Shuci herself had a desire to keep a cat. She moistened her lips and said, “I'm not sure if my landlord

would allowto keep a cat—I'll need to make a call.”

After all, it was a rental place, and slandlords do not allow tenants to have pets.

“Cup withfirst.”

Then... Shen Shuci let the wolf into her honce again.

But the people from the Huo Family left outside were not pleased!

What did he mean calling them a bunch of clumsy men? If he wanted an excuse to get closer to Miss Shen, he

didn’t have to attack them, did he?

Everyone was dumbfounded again. What on earth had he done in that short half-hour?
