341: Chapter 341 Two Flight Attendants

As the brief spat ended, the families of relatives quickly returned to a state of 'harmony,' picking up food for each other, urging drinks, and making superficial small talk.

Jiang Ye, not having been provoked, did not take the initiative to act.

The Art of War says: If the enemy is in internal chaos, do not attack. Observe them disturbing themselves, wait for them to collapse on their own, and then take advantage of the situation to divide and conquer them. Subduing the enemy without fighting is the best strategy.

He was happy to be idle, leisurely eating his meal while observing the expressions of everyone with great interest.

As for Comrade Old Tian...

Now, Old Tian's gaze when looking at his younger sister, Zhao Shiya, was a bit off.

Of course, it wasn't that he had developed any lecherous, dirty thoughts; Comrade Old Tian's character was still top-notch. Even though he had been provoked by the two juniors, he still didn't have any thoughts in that direction.

It was just that...

She really didn't seem to be living a very happy life...

He heard she often argued with that scoundrel Second Uncle-in-law, and the Second Uncle-in-law seemed to have some messy affairs outside. Her son, Xu Xuan, also stood on his father's side and wasn't considerate to his mother at all.

Thinking about it, if Shiwen were still here and saw Shiya so unhappy, she would definitely be heartbroken and would blame me, the brother-in-law, for not taking good care of her sister...

Looking at his sister-in-law's slightly frail back, Old Tian was sighing to himself when he suddenly heard a very low whisper coming from beside him.

Little Uncle, look!

Tian Lijuan whispered: 'I told you he was looking at Second Aunt lecherously! He's practically drooling!'

Jiang Ye nodded in agreement, also lowering his voice, and solemnly educated her:

'It's normal. Haven't I been studying the Three Kingdoms lately? This kind of fetish has existed since ancient times and has a long history. Don't discriminate against your dad. Men, well, when they reach a certain stage, it's inevitable to have some perverted thoughts.'

Old Tian: '...'

His old face flushed, and he felt a rush of blood to his head. Gritting his molars, he couldn't explain to these two juniors with their erratic thinking that he was purely motivated by family affection and sympathy, so he simply raised his wine glass and took a big gulp to cover his embarrassment.

Tian Lijuan was stunned and continued to ask: 'Ah? All of them do? Then Little Uncle, do you have any perverted thoughts too?'

Jiang Ye glanced at Old Tian's look of being unable to speak his mind, gritted his teeth, and put on a tragic expression that said, 'I'm only sacrificing myself to provide cover for you':

'Actually... I have some too. I... um... for example, breasts, legs, feet, and such, I have a slight preference for them as well.'

Old Tian: '...'

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught his own 'money-losing' daughter hearing this and immediately subconsciously looking down at her own 'well-equipped' chest. His mouth twitched violently, and he barely restrained himself from throwing the glass of wine in his hand directly onto Jiang Ye's face.

————

After chatting about some trivial topics for a while, the Second Uncle glanced at Old Tian's family, who were happily enjoying themselves, seemingly in their own world, completely unbothered by the previous incident, and felt uneasy again.

He cleared his throat, looked at his son, and asked in a raised voice: 'Haoran, where is your girlfriend? It's been so long, why hasn't she arrived yet?'

'Let me ask...'

Just as Tian Haoran was about to pick up his phone to check, it happened to ring.

He picked it up, looked at it, and a smile appeared on his face: 'She's here, Dad. She sent me a message saying she's downstairs. I'll go pick her up.'

Saying this, he stood up and went straight out of the private room.

The Second Uncle's face immediately beamed with joy. He chuckled, waved his hand at everyone, and said in a 'casual' tone:

'Everyone, don't be too enthusiastic in a moment. Just chat casually, don't scare the young lady. The two of them have actually known each other for quite a long time. Haoran talks to me every day about how great that girl is, but this kid is thin-skinned and hasn't dared to clarify their relationship. If I hadn't pushed him like this, who knows how long he would have dragged it out!'

'Second Brother, you need to be like Haoran—steady and reliable—to find a good girl.'

Third Aunt immediately chimed in with a smile: 'I often tell our Tingting that when looking for a Boyfriend, he must be deep and responsible! Those who are glib and smooth-talking are clearly unreliable; they only know how to talk.'

Everyone laughed knowingly, their gazes sweeping over Jiang Ye intentionally or unintentionally, all knowing who Third Aunt was referring to.

Jiang Ye also laughed along, as if he hadn't heard the subtext at all, and cast a sympathetic look at Second Uncle-in-law, whose expression had just softened, his face full of 'Look at you, you got scolded, didn't you?'

Second Uncle-in-law: '...'

His brow immediately furrowed, and an inexplicable anger flared up again. Just as he was about to erupt and demand to know if this was directed at him, the private room door was suddenly pushed open with a 'click.'

'Dad, Mom, Uncle, Aunt, Ms. Qin is here.'

Tian Haoran walked in with a smile and stepped aside to clear the doorway.

Behind him, a tall girl with a bright appearance and a good figure walked in.

She was wearing a slim-fitting off-white down jacket and black long boots, with exquisite light makeup on her face. After entering, she bowed slightly with a polite smile:

'Hello, Uncles and Aunts, Happy New Year. I am Ms. Qin, Haoran's... friend.'

The group of elders immediately put on enthusiastic smiles and greeted her one after another:

'Oh my, this girl is truly pretty! She has such class!'

'Yes, yes, you can tell she comes from a good family. No wonder she was selected as a flight attendant!'

'Come in and sit down, it's cold outside, right?'

Looking at Ms. Qin, who was being welcomed like the moon surrounded by stars, Tian Lijuan couldn't help but curl her lip and lightly nudged Jiang Ye with her elbow:

'Little Uncle, evaluate objectively: is she better looking or am I?'

Jiang Ye was examining Ms. Qin. Hearing this, he didn't even think about it and replied in a low voice while smacking his lips: 'Objectively speaking, yours are... bigger.'

'...'

Tian Lijuan was clearly very dissatisfied with this simple, crude answer that completely deviated from what she had expected. Just as she was about to ask, 'Besides that?', she saw Ms. Qin smile, take off her shoulder bag, turn around, wave at the door, and pull in another girl:

'Uncles and Aunts, sorry. I was shopping with my best friend, and when I got Haoran's call, I brought her along on the way. I hope it's not inconvenient?'

Although everyone was a little surprised, there was certainly no reason to refuse:

'It's convenient, it's convenient.'

'The more people, the merrier. It's just a matter of adding a pair of chopsticks.'

'Oh my, this girl also has great class, very quiet and gentle. Is she also a flight attendant?'

Ms. Qin nodded and affectionately linked arms with the girl who had followed her: 'Yes, Auntie. Jiang Shuang and I are preparing for the flight attendant exam together. We are good sisters.'

Jiang Ye: '...'

His mouth twitched. The moment Jiang Shuang's gaze swept across the room, finally fixed on his face, and her eyes suddenly lit up, he stood up abruptly:

'Oh! What a coincidence! Isn't this classmate Jiang Shuang? I am the school's Entrepreneur Influencer, Jiang Shu! How long has it been since we last met?'
