Jiang Huai put his hands in his pockets and shuffled in his slippers, completely subverting his aloof image in front of outsiders. He walked over from afar as if he was chatting.

Jiang Huai looked at the two people squatting on the ground and said in confusion, “I say, the two of you are really free. It’s snowing, yet you still came out to get drenched.”

Tan Ming turned to look at Jiang Huai and retorted, “The snow is so little that I can’t even feel it anymore. Besides, if I don’t get drenched in snow on a snowy day, how can it be called winter?”

Tan Ming and Jiang Huai were the closest in age. They usually contacted each other the most, so she spoke to him without restraint.

Jiang Huai was so angry at Tan Ming’s theory that he laughed. “Oh, you’re getting better at talking. Let’s go upstairs and watch a movie together. You’ll catch a cold later.”

Jiang Huai pulled the hood of Tan Ming’s jacket and covered her head. Then, he looked at Jiang Zhen. “What time did you arrive today? Don’t leave later. Let’s have lunch at my house. It’s rare we get to see each other.”

Jiang Zhen stood up and patted the snow off his hands. “I’m here to freeload today.”

Jiang Huai smiled and stretched out his long arm, placing it on Jiang Zhen’s shoulder. “That’s fine. Let’s go to the third floor together.”

Tan Ming also stood up. “Third Brother, what time did you come back last night?”

Jiang Huai yawned and placed his other hand on Tan Ming’s body. He carried the two of them in the direction of the house. “It’s almost four o’clock. I’ve only slept for less than six hours when 1 was woken up by a phone call. I’m sleepy but I can’t fall asleep. I’ll stay up now and sleep early tonight.”

When Jiang Zhen saw Tan Ming’s shoulders being crushed by Jiang Huai’s arm, he said calmly, “Don’t you know that your bones are big and heavy? My shoulders are sore from the pressure.”

Jiang Huai looked at Jiang Zhen in disdain. “I’ve never seen you say that before. Now, you even despise me.”

After saying that, Jiang Huai saw that he was still holding An’an and hurriedly put his hand down. He even massaged her a few times. “My An’an’s shoulders might not be good. She’s not tall to begin with. If I massage her a few more times, she’ll become even shorter.”

Tan Ming looked at Jiang Huai and retorted indignantly, “I’m at least 1.6 meters tall. I’m not bad for being from the south.”

Jiang Huai hurriedly coaxed, “Not short, not short. Look at my stupid mouth.”

As the two of them spoke, Jiang Zhen turned around and looked at the little snowman on the ground. He looked a little lonely as he stood alone in the snow.

Jiang Zhen lowered his eyes to hide his emotions.

Ever since Tan Ming entered the industry, Si Cheng had also secretly followed Tan Ming’s social media account.

Therefore, other than the fans, Si Cheng was also the one who saw that snowman today.

Si Cheng zoomed in on the man’s hand in the video and realized that there was no Jiang Huai’s J tattoo at the base of his right index finger. He frowned. “What childhood sweetheart?! Who is this man?!”

Si Cheng immediately picked up the phone and called Tan Ming. When he saw the name on the caller ID, Tan Ming frowned and picked up the call. “What?”

Si Cheng suppressed his anger and said, “Who’s that man in the video? I think you’re pitiful. I wanted to bring you home for the New Year yesterday so that you wouldn’t be alone. I waited at your door until it was time to eat, but I didn’t see you. Where are you now?”

The movie was just getting interesting when it was suddenly interrupted by Si Cheng. The other party even sounded like he was interrogating her. Even Tan Ming got angry. “Other than asking for a time to get our divorce, you don’t have to call me in the future!”

Tan Ming hung up the phone. When Si Cheng saw that the call had ended, he refused to give up and continued calling. Tan Ming was annoyed and blocked him.

When Si Cheng called again, it became an automated message. After that, he called a few more times at different times.

After Si Cheng confirmed that he had been blocked, he was furious, but there was nothing he could do!

Now, he didn’t even know where the other party was for the New Year. Si Cheng thought for a moment and was about to borrow the phone from the servant.

“Si Cheng, are you ready?”

Zheng Wen’s voice came from downstairs. Only then did Si Cheng remember that he had something important to do. He tidied the collar of his coat and walked downstairs. “Coming.”

Zheng Wen looked at her tall and handsome son and nodded in satisfaction. She looked at her husband, who was walking in front, and approached Si Cheng. She said in a low voice, “When we go to the Bai family later, remember to be more proactive. Those two bustards are in frequent contact with the board of directors now. We have to speed up.”

Si Cheng’s expression became a little solemn. “Alright, 1 understand!”

The night of the second day of the Lunar New Year was the premiere of “Cycle.” The Jiang family rejected all visits at night..
