Chapter 1358 - 777: Night Raid on the Si Family? The Wild Boy’s Audacity Knows No Bounds (Part 2)

Next morning, Jiang Mansion

In the early spring cold, the morning dew was heavy. The elderly lady rose early and had her potted plants moved outside, intending to trim the flowers. Unexpectedly, she noticed that a car was missing from the yard. It wasn’t anyone else’s car, but Jiang Chengsi’s.

His cars are all modified; normally, no one would touch them.

This early, going out?

But this doesn’t seem like him. Could it be...

This kid’s run off!

The elderly lady was so anxious she entirely forgot she was still holding the flower trimming scissors and hurriedly walked upstairs. She knocked on the door but there was no response. When she pushed the door open, the tidiness of the bed seemed to tell her:

No one stayed here last night.

"Grandma? What’s wrong?" Jiang Jinsang came out in his pajamas to check because the knocking was quite loud.

"Your fourth brother ran away!" The elderly lady angrily pounded her chest, scissors still in hand, almost scaring Jiang Jinsang, "That little rascal, he’s going to drive me to death!"

"..."

Everyone in the Jiang Family got up. Jiang Chengsi’s car was gone, his phone was off; from the looks of it, he really had thrown in the towel and run away.

Even Jiang Shiyi, who lived in Hexi, received a ’wanted’ call from the elderly lady, saying his brother had run away, and Grandma was extremely upset. Jiang Shiyi hurriedly put on a coat and rushed to the old mansion.

Jiang Jinsang sat on the sofa, Jiang Xiaowai leaned against him, with an innocent look, seemingly oblivious to the tense atmosphere at home.

Everyone knew how much the elderly lady worried about Jiang Chengsi. If he really dared to run away this time, his return wouldn’t just end with being beaten up.

With the elderly lady’s anger, his beloved cars wouldn’t escape unscathed.

"Did this kid run away last night?" The elderly lady was awake at five in the morning, so it definitely wasn’t an early-morning escape.

Jiang Jinsang touched his nose, could it be that yesterday’s task was too heavy for him, and he used it as an excuse to blow off some steam and run away?

**

As for Jiang Chengsi, last night, after leaving the mansion, he indeed didn’t go for a breeze, nor anywhere else, but drove straight to East City.

When he arrived near the Si Family, the time was already eleven-thirty at night. Si Qingxiao might have already been asleep, so he thought about wandering around her house, thus he got out of the car and strolled nearby.

Because last time Si Qingxiao had been stalked and Si Yushan hadn’t noticed in time, and recently journalists have been wandering nearby, the Si Family enhanced their security...

Jiang Chengsi didn’t wander long before appearing in the cameras.

"Hey, hey, don’t sleep, someone’s here!" The Si Family night staff quickly noticed a shadow, with insufficient light, the face wasn’t clear.

"Journalist?"

"Doesn’t seem like it. Which journalist would dare wander around here openly? He’s got his hands behind his back, not even wearing a mask, just can’t see the face clearly."

"Switch to a closer camera."

...

Switching cameras revealed it was Jiang Chengsi, and the Si family was puzzled.

This Fourth Master Jiang, wandering around at midnight, what’s he up to? Si Family’s shrubs are densely planted, this season has quite a few mosquitoes, doesn’t he fear getting bitten?

"What to do? Should we inform the mister?"

"Mister hurt his waist today, better not say anything, let’s see what he’s up to first."

Jiang Chengsi originally intended to just wander a bit and leave, but after driving for an hour only to find no one, he couldn’t help feeling a bit reluctant.

So he sent a message to Si Qingxiao: [Are you asleep?]

Si Qingxiao was originally cultivating drowsiness, heard the vibration: [Not yet.]

[I’m at your door.]

Si Qingxiao: [...]

Jiang Chengsi rarely joked with her. Almost instinctively, Si Qingxiao prepared to change clothes and go out.

[Do you want to see me?]

[Yes.] Since he’s at the door, surely they should meet.

[Have your uncle and aunt gone to sleep?]

[Asleep.]

[There are quite a few bugs outside, don’t come out, I’ll come in.]

[Do you need me to open the door for you?] After nightfall, the doors are definitely locked.

[Just open the house door for me.]

Si Qingxiao donned a coat, sneaking quietly downstairs like a thief, opening the living room door, waiting for Jiang Chengsi to get in.

The Si family was originally watching him all along...

Witnessed the entire process of someone climbing the wall into the yard, with such familiarity and skill.

Just by looking at his stance, it’s obvious it’s not his first time climbing over a wall.

Turns out he had an insider; the lady of the house helped him open the door and let him in.

"Are you really not going to inform Mister and Missus about this?" Everyone in the Si Family knows Jiang Chengsi is an oddball, but no one would have thought he’d climb over their wall in the middle of the night.

"How can we inform them? The lady clearly doesn’t want them to know. If Fourth Master gets caught, she’s the one who’ll have a hard time."

"But... doesn’t he have too much nerve? If Mister finds out, he’ll definitely be furious. Fourth Master is truly something else, remarkable."

...

Si Qingxiao had no clue he was coming over; her parents were still home. That feeling was really tense and exciting.

She never imagined in her life that, even after going public with a relationship, it would still feel like sneaking around like a thief.

"Xiao... mmm." Jiang Chengsi just wanted to speak, but she covered his mouth, forcibly dragging him by the wrist into her room.

Locking the door, shutting the window, drawing the curtains, only leaving a standing lamp on... every action done in one swift motion.

Jiang Chengsi looked at her expression, found it amusing, does she really need to be this tense?

"Why did you suddenly come over without giving me a heads-up?" Actually, her room had good soundproofing; maybe it was guilt, her voice was very low.

"Missed you, so I came." Jiang Chengsi surveyed her bedroom, but his attention was more on her pajamas.

Light yellow, an improved qipao style, seems to be some kind of silky fabric, looking quite smooth. Though she wore a coat, she couldn’t completely cover it.

"Mom and Dad just went to bed not long ago. If they find out, we’re finished." Si Qingxiao passed by him, went to check if the door was truly locked.

Jiang Chengsi watched her tense and anxious expression, her face fraught with complex emotions, and smirked. His gaze shifted from her, landed on a keychain hanging by her drawer.

The key was inserted in the lock, the keychain hung in mid-air. It’s not really an eye-catching object, but the accessory on the keychain was quite noticeable.

"This..." Jiang Chengsi walked over, pulled out the key. "This was the trophy from breaking the club’s record at its opening, and you’ve actually used it."

"You broke the record just to get this thing?"

"Don’t look around." Si Qingxiao had secretly gone to the club, didn’t expect them to give away memorabilia, which had Jiang Chengsi’s image, obviously she wanted it.

Her little secret got exposed, she raised her hand, trying to snatch the keychain back.

This item was designed and made by Ruan Mengxi, Jiang Chengsi hadn’t seriously looked at it before, didn’t expect Si Qingxiao treasured it so much, he certainly wanted to examine it closely.

As she tried to snatch it back, Jiang Chengsi took advantage of his height to lift the item up.

"Jiang Chengsi—" Si Qingxiao raised her arm, couldn’t reach it anyway, naturally anxious and angry.

"Xiaoxiao, honestly, when did you start liking me?" During the club’s trial opening, coinciding with Huo Qinqi’s wedding, it was a long time ago, they had almost no interaction then.

"Hurry up and give it to me."

"You tell me first, was it love at first sight for you?"

Jiang Chengsi smiled triumphantly, Si Qingxiao’s face flushed red, how could he be so shameless, she jumped up to try snatching the object, Jiang Chengsi noticed her gesture intentionally teasing her, one trying to snatch, the other unwilling to give.

"Why snatch it? I would definitely give it to you. I just wanted to take a look." Jiang Chengsi worried she might trip or bump into something, teased her while also being cautious to protect her.

His gaze wandered, inadvertently fell on her leg, and couldn’t look away.

Si Qingxiao wore this dress for sleeping in, definitely wearing for comfort.

The dress wasn’t very long, normally worn nothing seemed unusual. However, as she raised her arms trying to snatch the object, the entire dress shifted up half an inch...

Her fair and tender legs swayed into his line of sight, boldly flaunting.

Jiang Chengsi is just a normal man, and this is the girl he likes, his heart felt like it was lightly scratched by something.

Sensitively tingling.

It seemed as if a fire was scorching his throat, in that moment, actions paused slightly, Si Qingxiao quickly stood on tiptoe, grasped at a part of the keychain.

She exerted a little strength, trying to pull the keychain back.

However, Jiang Chengsi held tightly, not willing to let go.

"Brother Fourth—" Si Qingxiao frowned, turning her attention back to him, realizing something was amiss.

In this tug of war, their bodies got close, and the gap stirred more allure, while his eyes seemed to carry a hot breeze. She had been fighting for the keychain, expending some energy, her body was warm, feeling even hotter under his gaze.

"Fourth... mmm."

Just said one word, Jiang Chengsi suddenly leaned in, kissed her fiercely. As she tried to resist, he grasped her fingers, using her raised arm posture, Jiang Chengsi easily pinned her arms above her head.

Almost instantly, he pressed her against the wall to the side.

Si Qingxiao instinctively struggled, kicked over the standing lamp nearby.

The lamp fell, probably sensing danger, it automatically shut off, curtains were drawn tightly shut.

No light, unable to see clearly...

Only the burning breaths between them scorching each other.
