How's your relationship with Uncle...
Jiang Tong closed her eyes a little, resting her side on the sofa.
"It's even worse than before." She let out a bitter laugh, her eyes starting to get wet.
Her parents had a political marriage, and each of them had someone else they loved.
As for her, she was just a test-tube baby, something she found out later.
But as a child, how could she understand any of that? All she wanted was her parents' attention.
Her dad did dote on her, but he was always in the military camp, rarely coming home.
The person who spent the most time with her was actually her mom.
But...
It seemed her mom didn't really like her...
To get her attention, she once got first place in school, and once got last place.
She smashed things at school, fought with classmates, and even had scandals of changing boyfriends every day.
All she got in return was a cold response: I'm busy, tell the butler if you need anything.
"Xiao Tong, I'm sorry." Seeing her silent, Tong Dan felt full of guilt.
If he'd known, he wouldn't have brought it up just now...
"It's fine, I've managed the past twenty-six years, why would I be afraid of a word from you?"
Jiang Tong wiped away her tears and put on a cheerful face.
Seeing her like this, the other five people all sighed.
"Come on, drink! Why think about sad things?" Qi Feng cheered, placing a glass of wine in front of Jiang Tong.
Everyone was instantly affected by his mood, each downing the drink in front of them.
After finishing their glass, the other four blinked, somewhat dazedly staring at Jiang Tong's empty glass.
Did they forget something...
The four exchanged glances and all excitedly stood up.
Qi Feng raised an eyebrow, looking at the four of them, "You've only had one drink, why are you so excited?"
Why are they so excited?
The four of them resisted the urge to kick Qi Feng out, hastily gathering their belongings from the booth.
Tong Dan: "Thanks for the welcome party today, I really liked it, see you next time."
Lin Yangbo: "Had a great time today, but I need to go check on my stock market."
He Wanchen: "I just remembered I haven't finished my work..."
Qiao Qian: "My mom's calling me home for dinner..."
After giving their excuses, the four of them dashed out like their feet were greased, disappearing within minutes.
"What's got them all worked up?"
Qi Feng scratched his nose, utterly puzzled.
"Tongtong, why do you think they're acting so weird?" He was about to ask Jiang Tong.
With a glass of red wine down, Jiang Tong's face was starting to flush, her ears a bright red.
She gave Qi Feng a mischievous smile.
It sent shivers down his spine, "Tongtong?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Tong wobbled to her feet and pinched his chubby cheeks.
"Ooh~ how fun this clay is to squish." She mashed his face, occasionally letting out a satisfied smile.
"No—"
"Don't pinch my face, I make a living with it!"
Qi Feng wailed loudly but couldn't lay a hand on Jiang Tong.
After pinching his face, she seemed unsatisfied and began pulling his hair.
"Tongtong, stop pulling! My hair's gonna come off!"
Qi Feng looked utterly defeated, no matter how much he shouted, he couldn't snap Jiang Tong out of it.
He finally understood why the other four reacted that way earlier!
Because a drunk Jiang Tong is simply a demon!
