Chapter 2119: You Are the One Who Is More Worrisome

On a rustic round table, there was an array of rich and delicious dishes.

The fragrant aroma was truly enough to make one's mouth water.

Except for Li Xingyan and Wei Yangyang, who were still on their honeymoon, the entire Li Family was sitting at the table.

And Su Kexuan, who was a guest, had been arranged by Jiang Baobao to sit opposite Jiang Mobai.

Su Kexuan did not know if this arrangement was unintentional or deliberate.

But to her, it did not matter.

While eating, she did not make eye contact with Jiang Mobai, but instead chatted quite animatedly with the others.

When the topic of honeymoons came up, Su Kexuan said, "When I met with Xingyan and Yangyang, they both praised the itinerary Tiantian gave them for being very comprehensive and a huge help."

Jiang Motian kept her head down, eating.

Feeling everyone's attention on her, she looked up.

Then she smiled and replied, "I just helped a little bit."

Jiang Mobai said casually, "A little bit? Then make an itinerary for me next time, too."

"Oh, so when are you getting married?"

Jiang Motian's words held a deeper meaning.

After hearing this, Jiang Mobai frowned slightly.

He thought to himself, why does this girl have to bring up the one thing that shouldn't be mentioned!

Afterwards, he said nonchalantly, "Can't I travel without a honeymoon?"

"You can, but I won't help you make an itinerary."

"How stingy!"

"Please, making an itinerary is very mentally draining; you'll understand once you do it yourself."

If a prepared itinerary were placed in front of Jiang Mobai, he would gladly accept it.

But to make him look up the information himself...

Jiang Mobai changed his tune: "Actually, it's fine not to have an itinerary; just go with the flow."

"Go with the flow? Once you arrive in a strange place, can't book a hotel, have a miserable time, and the food tastes bad... then you'll know what 'going with the flow' feels like."

"Hey, as long as the money is there, none of that is a problem."

"This isn't a problem of money, it's... forget it, forget it, I can't talk to you!"

Jiang Motian made a face at Jiang Mobai, then continued to eat with her head down.

Jiang Baobao took this opportunity to steer the conversation toward Su Kexuan: "Kexuan must also really like traveling, right?"

Hearing this question, Su Kexuan's movements paused for a moment.

Then she smiled and said, "I do, but I was busy with my studies before, and after graduation, I was busy with work, so I never had the chance to travel properly."

"Oh my, when you're young, you should strive for your career, but you should also enjoy life properly."

Li Beijue felt strongly about this and chimed in from the side: "Work is never-ending; when it's time to relax, you should relax."

"Yes, you are both right. If I have the chance, I will arrange a relaxing trip for myself."

Su Kexuan was just saying it casually to show she was listening carefully to the elders' advice.

In reality?

Traveling still would not appear on Su Kexuan's plans.

But Jiang Baobao was serious.

She even asked Jiang Motian: "You've researched so many travel destinations, is there anything you can recommend to Kexuan?"

"That depends on what type of travel destination Kexuan likes."

As Jiang Motian said this, she looked at Su Kexuan.

Su Kexuan thought for a moment and summarized: "Something full of challenges, like skydiving, surfing, or diving."

"You like extreme sports?"

"Yes."

Having received this information, Jiang Motian had an idea.

But before Jiang Motian could give a suggestion, Jiang Mobai spoke up first: "That's too dangerous."

Dangerous?

Jiang Baobao immediately used Jiang Mobai as a counter-example: "Then isn't your job dangerous? Every time I watch you race, my heart jumps into my throat!"

"That... is different. Racing is my career; it's about pursuing extreme speed, which is very challenging."

"Then you don't have to risk your life to challenge it!"

"Hey, Mom, you're exaggerating..."

Seeing that the mother and son were about to argue again, Li Beijue immediately stopped them: "Our son will definitely be more careful after this disaster."

Jiang Baobao looked at Jiang Mobai with a look of disdain, then asked: "Does he look like he's being careful to you?"

Jiang Mobai immediately straightened his back: "Of course I'm careful with my own life."

"It's easy to say nice things, but Mobai, you are still young and have a long life ahead of you. You must protect yourself well; this is also being responsible to your other half."

The first half of this sentence was quite normal.

But the second half...

Jiang Mobai found it very awkward to hear.

He lowered his eyes, not daring to look in Su Kexuan's direction, and said sullenly: "What other half, there isn't even a shadow of one yet."

"If you don't grow up, there will never be a shadow."

Jiang Baobao's words were a bit hard to listen to.

But it revealed the truth.

Jiang Mobai, however, had no heart to care about these truths.

He just couldn't understand why Mom was always undermining him today.

This would make him lose a lot of face in front of Su Kexuan!

And what Jiang Mobai did not know was that Jiang Baobao was doing this on purpose.

She hoped that under her stimulation, her son would re-plan his career.

It was just that...

The effect was not very good; Jiang Mobai not only failed to re-plan, but was actually very resistant to this topic.

Su Kexuan's gaze swept over this pair of mother and son.

Then she smiled and said to Jiang Baobao, "Auntie, this drunken crab dish today is really excellent."

Jiang Baobao knew that Su Kexuan wanted to ease the atmosphere.

Since the child was so sensible, Jiang Baobao had no choice but to take the opportunity to change the subject.

Only in the gaps of the conversation would she glare at Jiang Mobai with dissatisfaction.

As for Jiang Motian, she had not said much the whole time.

Once Su Kexuan finished her meal and left, she slipped back to her room.

Phew, that was truly a meal filled with the smoke of gunpowder!

Jiang Motian lay on the bed, and only then did her tense nerves relax a little.

However, before she had relaxed for long, she heard the sound of the door opening.

It turned out to be Jiang Baobao, who was carrying fruit and walking into Jiang Motian's room.

Seeing her mother, Jiang Motian sat up involuntarily.

The nerves that had just relaxed became tense once again.

Jiang Baobao, however, smiled very gently.

She said, "I saw you ate a lot at the dining table just now, so I brought you some fruit to help with digestion."

Jiang Motian had indeed eaten quite a bit.

But as for why she kept eating...

It was certainly not because the food was so delicious.

It was because Jiang Motian kept feeling that today's dinner party was not quite right.

Adhering to the principle of saying less to make fewer mistakes, Jiang Motian had used the food to plug her mouth.

Yet she hadn't expected that her mother would still come knocking in the end...

Jiang Motian sighed inwardly.

On the surface, she took the fruit with a smile and said sweetly, "Thank you, Mom."

"You girl, your behavior today was truly well-behaved."

"I have always been well-behaved."

Jiang Motian said vaguely while eating the fruit.

Seeing the fruit smear onto the corner of Jiang Motian's lips, Jiang Baobao reached out to help wipe it off.

Then, she asked a question gently: "Did you feel that Mobai's performance today was very deliberate?"

This question almost made Jiang Motian choke!

Struggling to swallow the fruit, Jiang Motian said with a calm expression, "I didn't notice."

What do you mean you didn't notice, this girl...
