Chapter 144: Chapter 144 She’s Too Bullying!!!
Ordinary people would have been at a loss in this situation by now.
But Jiang Yan was, after all, Jiang Yan. He not only naturally took a seat amid the aunts but even took the melon seeds they passed to him, cracking them and chatting away about the mountains.
“Granny, I’ve just been on this variety show, never been in a drama, but if Granny wants to watch, I’ll go act in one in the future.”
“I live in the Capital, it’s crowded, and I live with my uncles and aunts. Jiang Li is indeed my sister, but she had a genetic mutation, she’s not quite like the rest of our family.”
“Auntie, if you keep praising me like that I’ll get shy. You’re so young and have such a good aura, not a bit inferior to those city women.”
“I’m 21 this year and still don’t have a girlfriend, Auntie, but if you could introduce me to someone, someone who was like you when younger, that would be great.”
...
“I can’t handle this, Young Master, how can you just go along with anyone! Even flirting with the aunts and grannies!”
“So you’re talking bad about Jiang Li, huh? Wait till Jiang Li comes over and sees you!”
“Help, I would have social anxiety already. How can Jiang Yan be so socially brilliant, managing to chat with everyone?”
“Jiang Yan actually doesn’t have a girlfriend? Really? He looks like he has a truckload of girlfriends.”
“No girlfriend? So does that mean I still have a chance?”
“Wake up sis, above. It’s true Jiang Yan doesn’t have a girlfriend, but he previously had a fiancée, it was an arranged marriage by family, though I don’t know why they split later on. I’ve heard people mention it, but with his family background, they surely care about matching social status.”
Seeing how sweet Jiang Yan talked, the aunties liked him even more, even declaring that if the director ever starved him, he should just come to their house.
Jiang Yan feigned great excitement, “Really? That would be too embarrassing.”
“What’s so embarrassing? Our house won’t run out of food for you. Ah, why didn’t you come live at our place before? Uncle Zhao’s place is alright, but seriously poor! Look at you, your face has sunken in.”
Jiang Yan laughed, “Thank you for your concern, Auntie, but I won’t mooch off you, in case the director deducts my points. There is something else I really want to eat, though.”
“What is it? Just tell us, and if we have it at home, I’ll bring it to you right now.”
Jiang Yan sneakily moved closer and whispered a few words into the auntie’s ear.
She immediately burst into a bigger grin.
“Goodness, it’s just cigarettes. My husband has some on him, just wait, I’ll bring the whole pack to you.” freewebnσvel.cøm
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yan’s face lit up with anticipation.
He could finally smoke!
He had been suffering without it!
Especially since both the production team and Jiang Li were out, he had to seize the opportunity to enjoy a few puffs!
The smoking auntie left, and the other people were called away to lay out the dishes.
Jiang Yan sat alone at the door, growing more anxious as he waited.
Why was it taking the auntie so long?
Just as he hesitated over whether to get up and look for her, a voice suddenly came from above him—
“Are you looking for this?”
Seeing the pack of cigarettes that appeared before his eyes, Jiang Yan excitedly grabbed it like a mouse that had just seen grains.
“Yes, yes, that’s it, thank you, thank you.”
But when he tried to pull the pack toward him, he found it stuck to the other’s hand, impossible to pull free.
He then noticed the hand—fair and slender, not at all like an auntie’s.
And that voice—
