Accidentally provoking the spring tide

Chapter 71. Brother-in-law, you're so thoughtful!
Lin Feng lay sprawled on the bed, his dark circles under his eyes were alarmingly heavy.

He had been tormented by the matter of Jiang Jixu and Ji Yanci all night, and he was finally getting a little sleepy when his phone, which was placed next to his pillow, suddenly started vibrating incessantly.

"Damn it, who the hell isn't sleeping at night—"

His angry voice abruptly stopped when he saw the endless stream of chat logs on the screen.

The pupils shrank suddenly.

Marriage?!
Who's getting married?!

He jumped up and kept scrolling through the messages, but there were too many in the group and new messages kept being added. Lin Feng could only curse as he scrolled: "Damn it, why aren't you sleeping at this hour? Are you owls?"

When his fingers were almost cramping from swiping, he finally found what he wanted.

Lin Feng clicked on the screenshot of the WeChat Moments post.

A bright red marriage certificate burst into view, and the man standing next to Jiang Jixu in the photo looked so familiar.

That's the man he bumped into at University A that day, the one with Jiang Jixu!

Lin Feng sat blankly on the bed, his thoughts in disarray.

Is Jiang Jixu really married?
and many more……

As if suddenly remembering something, he picked up his phone, found Jiang Jixu in his contacts, and clicked into her Moments. There was nothing there, only a horizontal line.

Lin Feng couldn't believe it.

Did Jiang Jixu block him?

He kept sending messages to the girl, unwilling to give up.

Are you really married?

A bright red exclamation mark appeared at the end of the text message, like a grinning mouth, blatantly mocking the man's arrogance and self-righteousness.

Below this is a line of small gray text.

The other party is no longer your friend. Please add them as a friend first.

Lin Feng rubbed his eyes. Was he still sleepy from not sleeping all night? How could Jiang Jixu delete him? If she deleted him, where would she find out about Ji Yanci's whereabouts?
Unless, she no longer wants to know anything about Ji Yanci.

The thought had barely crossed his mind when the man suppressed it.

impossible.

how can that be possible?
That's Jiang Jixu.

Jiang Jixu has always revolved around Ji Yanci!

Lin Feng cursed and exited the chat interface, forcing himself to calm down. He needed to figure out what was going on.

Jiang Jixu cannot be contacted.

The rest of the Jiang family must know the inside story.

Lin Feng's eyes lit up.

Yes, find Jiang Wang. He was there that day too, so he definitely knows what's going on between Jiang Jixu and that man!

The man acted swiftly, disregarding the fact that it was four in the morning, and immediately began making a barrage of urgent calls to the other party.
-
University A dormitory building.

Even with silent mode on, the incessant vibration of the phone was still quite noticeable in the quiet night, disturbing my sleep.

Hou Taojiu almost collapsed, covering his ears with a pillow: "...Who set this alarm that keeps going off?! Can't a person get any sleep in the middle of the night?!"

Lu Lishen's brow twitched slightly.

Jiang Wang impatiently reached for his phone under his pillow, and became even more annoyed when he saw the caller ID. He got up, put on his slippers, and went to the balcony.

It was past four o'clock, the time when it was at its coldest. He was only wearing a short-sleeved shirt and shorts, and the cold wind gave him goosebumps.

The irritation in his eyes was even more pronounced.

He answered the phone and, before the other person could speak, launched into a tirade: "Isn't it Lin Feng who's going to die? Why are you calling me so late at night?"

"Tell me, how is your behavior any different from that of a mosquito? Oh right, mosquitoes suck human blood, but you're trying to kill someone!"

Jiang Wang mocked him mercilessly. She had expected Lin Feng to retort, but instead, all she heard on the other end was a man's urgent breathing: "Jiang Wang, what's going on with Jiang Jixu?! Did she really get married to someone else?"

Jiang Wang was immediately delighted.

He never expected that Lin Feng would call him so many times late at night just to ask about Jiang Jixu!
His tone instantly became unhurried, even leisurely—

"What does my sister have to do with you? Why are you asking about her?"

I heard the sound of a glass door moving behind me.

Jiang Wang turned around and saw Lu Lishen.

The man casually draped a jacket over a black, round-neck cotton T-shirt and wore grey pajama bottoms. His hair was slightly disheveled, and his features appeared exceptionally clear and aloof under the moonlight, exuding a languid sexiness.

Lu Lishen handed him the coat, saying, "Don't catch a cold, your sister will be worried about you."

Jiang Wang took it, instinctively preparing to retort, but the words changed course.

He turned on the loudspeaker, deliberately drawing out his voice—

"Thank you so much, brother-in-law! You're so thoughtful!"

Lin Feng's breath hitched: "Brother-in-law? What brother-in-law? Jiang Wang, stop being so mysterious and explain yourself!"

Jiang Wang rolled his eyes, cleared his throat, and continued, "Brother-in-law, you have to take good care of my sister, don't be like some people before who are blind to her beauty!"

Lu Lishen smiled slightly and answered in a very cooperative manner.

"Of course, whatever A-Xu wants, I will give it to her."

"Oh, then I, as your younger brother, can rest assured!" Jiang Wang coughed twice. "Lin Feng, should I leave a couple of invitations for you and Ji Yanci for my sister's wedding? After all, you and my sister grew up together, it wouldn't be appropriate if you didn't come."

"Brother-in-law, aren't you right?"

Lu Lishen raised an eyebrow. "Your wife's friends are my friends. Don't worry, I'll definitely reserve two seats for you two."

Before he could finish speaking, the other end hung up.

Jiang Wang scoffed lightly: "I thought you had a strong mental fortitude, but you can't even handle this."

After saying that, he glanced at Lu Lishen sideways and said, "Let me tell you, what I did just now was just an act. Don't try to take advantage of me!"

Lu Lishen lowered his eyes and remained silent.

"What are you thinking about?"

"Why did he suddenly call you tonight?" Lu Lishen paused. "That guy named Lin Feng."

"Who knows, maybe he took the wrong medicine, or maybe the guy surnamed Ji had a relapse."

A flicker of disgust crossed Jiang Wang's eyes.

What he hated most was Ji Yanci, who pretended to be a gentleman and a good person on the surface, but in reality, he never took the initiative, never refused, and never took responsibility towards Jiang Jixu.

"You have no idea how disgusting that guy surnamed Ji is. Every time my sister is about to give up, he deliberately gives her a little something sweet and then keeps hooking her up."

Jiang Wang gets angry as soon as he mentions this.

He advised Jiang Ji countless times.

Jiang Jixu is usually good at being flexible in other matters, but when it comes to Ji Yanci, he is like a madman, stubbornly sticking to his own ideas!

"Didn't you find it strange when you first met my sister? Seventeen or eighteen-year-old girls are at the age when they love to look beautiful, but my sister always has short hair like a tomboy."

"Six years! My sister kept her hair short for six whole years just because of something that guy surnamed Ji said! And what happened? After the college entrance exam, he ran off abroad without even saying goodbye!"

Jiang Wang couldn't help but complain, only to realize afterward that he seemed to have chosen the wrong target.

Lu Lishen is now his rightful brother-in-law.

Although he had a crush on Jiang Jixu for nine years, people say that the more you put in when you pursue someone, the more you want to get after you get together.
