Divine Aunt Jiang Prepares to Visit Su Bai

In the evening, Su Bai and Chen Yusheng were sitting with their legs crossed, sipping on ice - cold sodas after watching a few episodes of anime.

Suddenly, Aunt Jiang sent a WeChat message to Su Bai, asking if he was available and saying she wanted to call him.

Chen Yusheng had been indulging in inhaling the scent of Su Bai, which was one of her favorite post - activity things to do.

When her eyes accidentally caught sight of Su Bai's WeChat message, she immediately exclaimed, "Call her! Call her!"

"Why are you getting so excited all of a sudden..."

"I want to see you talk on the phone with your aunt."

"What's so interesting about that?"

"Well, it's the daily interaction between my big white goose and his family. I'm really curious to see what it's like."

Chen Yusheng mumbled some reasons that hardly made any logical sense.

Girls in love tend to care about every move of their loved ones and never miss any details related to them. It might seem a bit silly, but it's just human nature.

Su Bai didn't object. In fact, he also liked being all lovey - dovey with Chen Yusheng. So, after Chen Yusheng promised to stay quiet and not cause any trouble, Su Bai made a voice call to Aunt Jiang.

"Hey, Xiaobai, you're amazing! I heard from your counselor that you're a little investment genius now!"

"Uh, sort of." Su Bai felt a bit embarrassed.

After all, she was an elder, and Aunt Jiang had loved to joke and tease him since he was a kid. Plus, with Chen Yusheng listening nearby, the embarrassment level was off the charts.

So, Su Bai quickly moved the conversation forward: "Aunt Jiang, I'm going to transfer some money to you. Don't worry about money anymore. You can keep running your handicraft store if you want, or close it. Anyway, I can fulfill whatever kind of life you want from now on."

"Haha, Xiaobai, I'm already satisfied that you have this kind of thought... There's no way I'm closing the store. This is my career. The neighbors are counting on my embroidery paintings to decorate their homes. If I stop working, who will they buy from?"

"Uh, as long as you're happy..."

"Don't transfer too much money to me. Just enough to buy a high - breed Ragdoll cat. I've always wanted to raise one... Actually, I don't have many big expenses right now."

"You can't say that. At least, I should buy you a new car. Oh, actually, I can buy a car for you in Jiangcheng. There are more models available here..."

"Makes sense! Then I'll come to see you during the National Day holiday. You take me to buy a car. It's settled... Oh, Granny Liu from next door is here. I promised to teach her how to make a horse - face skirt. Gotta hang up now."

"..."

The call ended abruptly like this.

It seemed that Aunt Jiang easily accepted the fact that Su Bai had suddenly become a rich man.

It was hard to tell if it was because of her naturally carefree personality or if Director Xia had taken on too much responsibility!

"Your aunt seems to have a really nice personality," Chen Yusheng commented sharply.

"Yeah, you know, my parents are the serious and rigid type... Well, at least that's how they were in my limited memory," Su Bai recalled. "It might sound a bit unfilial, but when I was a kid, I hated my own mom and liked Aunt Jiang instead. At that time, Aunt Jiang even held me in her arms and said she wanted me to grow up quickly and marry me. How crazy is that? I've never met another aunt as extraordinary as her."

"She really wanted to marry you?" Chen Yusheng suddenly got nervous.

"…What are you thinking? She was just talking nonsense to amuse a kid. She also said she wanted to be the richest person in Ancheng and buy me a villa in Jiangcheng when I grew up," Su Bai waved his hand indifferently. "There's a limit to how jealous you can get!"

"…Oh."

"Anyway, Aunt Jiang is quite interesting."

"How lucky you are to have such a cheerful and lively aunt accompany you as you grew up."

"Yeah, and Aunt Jiang doesn't really act like an elder in front of me. Plus, I have a wild personality, so compared to ordinary elders, our relationship is more like that of friends."

Su Bai wasn't exaggerating.

After all, he was the kind of person who could do all the housework independently when he was in the first grade of primary school.

He took the school bus to and from school by himself.

On the way back, he would also buy some groceries.

Aunt Jiang was busy running her small store. When Su Bai got home, he would cook on his family's stove and then call Jiang Qiuran from next door to have dinner.

These things didn't make Su Bai feel miserable. Instead, he felt that arranging his own life was really exciting.

In fact, people are born with the ability to be independent. It's just that most urban kids these days have such good conditions that they don't need to take on those responsibilities.

In the past, it was normal for rural kids to cut grass, cook, and help with farm work when they were seven or eight years old.

Speaking of which, Aunt Jiang was really smart. She knew that Su Bai didn't want to go back during the National Day holiday, so she decided to come to him and let Su Bai pick a car for her.

It was just right for Su Bai to let her experience a luxurious life.

Now that he had money, he wanted the important people around him to enjoy spending it too.

However, Chen Yusheng felt that something was off. After thinking for a while, she suddenly said, "Wait, your aunt has arranged her holiday, but why didn't she mention her daughter?"

"Hey, it's normal. Jiang Qiuran doesn't like to hang out with her mom. She's just a young girl going through her rebellious phase. Maybe Aunt Jiang is too lazy to look for her. Back when they lived at home, Jiang Qiuran often quarreled with her mom. The neighbors all said that compared to her, I seemed more like Aunt Jiang's real daughter..."

It's not that Aunt Jiang was bad to Jiang Qiuran.

As a mother, she was definitely doing her best.

It's just that in terms of personality, Aunt Jiang was an outgoing and lively person, while Jiang Qiuran was kind of pretentious and fussy. It was really hard for them to get along.

However, Chen Yusheng had a different opinion on this.

"That's because you have a good personality. You're the best, just like a white swan!"

...

Late at night.

While Su Bai was already sound asleep in the arms of his cute and smart girlfriend, some people's nightlife was just beginning.

In a VVIP private room of a top-notch lounge bar in Jiangcheng.

Several well - dressed men and women surrounded Liu Chen'ang in the center and chatted with enthusiasm.

The scene seemed quite harmonious, but it gave off a strong sense of falsehood.

Well, although these people were all children from well - known families in Jiangcheng, Liu Chen'ang didn't know them well.

In fact, two of them had even mocked Liu Chen'ang for being effeminate when they were in primary school.

After Liu Chen'ang went abroad to study in middle school, there was no contact between them.

Now that they were all adults and met again, of course, there wouldn't be such impolite behavior like when they were kids.

Even the bullies from back then now wore flattering expressions.

Liu Chen'ang found it very boring and didn't get any sense of revenge at all.

Well, if it had been the past her, she might have felt a little bit of pleasure in revenge.

Now, she didn't dislike her male identity as much as before.

People always have to put on a social mask when they are outside. Even Liu Chen'ang's parents, powerful as they were, put on a false front when going out.

So, it didn't matter if she regarded her male identity as a kind of armor.

She could be a girl in front of Su Bai. Wasn't that a happy thing?

Su Bai was the kind of person that Liu Chen'ang admired the most. He was rich, and his spending habits matched hers. On top of that, Su Bai's personality was just like the reliable big brother that Liu Chen'ang had always wanted since childhood.

Among the young masters in Jiangcheng present, some were already in their early twenties, and some were even postgraduate students.

But none of them had the calm and steady temperament that Su Bai had.

Comparisons are odious!
