Chapter 352 - The Genius Tuan Zi Has Inherited

Jiang Rui went away with Tuan Zi in his arms. Others couldn’t hear what Tuan Zi said, only seeing that she quieted down while Jiang Rui looked obviously happy.

“Enough.” Jiang Min scolded her. “When will you stop making trouble?”

Song Chunli screamed: “Make trouble? What trouble did I make? He is my grandson, so he has to listen to me!”

Jiang Qianren looked helplessly at his mother. In respect of Song Chunli, something had begun to go worse a few years ago, especially since when Jiang Rui was recognized by the Jiang family. Song Chunli often looked at Jiang Rui with love and hate in her eyes.

He had thought he was sensitive. However, when Jiang Rui was once injured, he saw Song Chunli add seafood soup which would lead to wound infection into the chicken soup. Jiang Rui immediately overturned the bowl and decided to move out, and Song Chunli cried and begged him to stay.

“Xiao Rui, please. I look at you, as if I’m looking at your father. Have pity on me and please don’t go, OK?”

Jiang Rui’s heart was not melted by her begging, and he moved out that night. Jiang Qianren knew that Jiang Rui had no feelings for the Jiang family at that time. These years, it got better. Jiang Min and he had been always supporting Jiang Rui, and Jiang Rui could feel their kindness and sincerity.

As for Song Chunli, even Jiang Min gave up on her. She blamed the death of her eldest son on Jiang Rui and thought that her son sacrificed himself to protect Jiang Rui. When Jiang Qianren knew what his mother thought, he considered it was incredible.

She didn’t want her son to sacrifice himself, and what about his older brother? Jiang Rui was also the son of his older brother?

“I hate him! If not for saving him, your older brother would not have died. But… Jiang Rui is his only child! Tell me what I should do? When I saw him, I thought of the fact that your older brother died because of him. But I’m reluctant to hurt him really; he looks like your older brother so much…”

Every day, Song Chunli lived with inner conflict, and she was very painful and did not know how to treat Jiang Rui. She asked Jiang Qianren to persuade Jiang Rui to stay, but Jiang Qianren failed to say it out. Furthermore, he believed that if Xiao Rui really stayed, it would cost Song Chunli’s own life sooner or later.

Later, Jiang Rui moved out, and Song Chunli failed to see him and became less troublesome. But in the past few years, it’s time for Jiang Rui to get married, and she was active again in finding the grandson’s wife who she was pleased with.

She found Bai Weirong pleasant and firmly believed that Jiang Rui would marry her. Now, Chen Chen appeared out of nowhere. How could Song Chunli accept her? In particular, after she heard that Jiang Rui had injured Bai Weirong, she even blamed Bai Weirong’s wound on Chen Chen.

“Grandpa, uncle, we’re leaving now.” Jiang Rui held Tuan Zi in his arms and reached out to Chen Chen. For a moment, Chen Chen was surprised. What he did warmed her heart, and she put her hand in his palm.

Song Chunli rushed up to attack Chen Chen. Jiang Rui was about to reach out when he saw Chen Chen block her attack with her arm and then quickly dodge. Jiang Qianren hurried to stop Song Chunli and shouted at Jiang Rui: “Just go, and I will go to visit Tuan Zi with your grandpa later.”

Behind them came the hysterical curse of Song Chunli, as well as the roar of Jiang Min. Chen Chen didn’t feel unhappy at all. After she got in the car, Tuan Zi took the initiative to huddle herself up in her arms. “Mom, Dad told me that we didn’t have to like them if they didn’t like us. Anyway, our family of three likes each other!”

“So why did you cry just now?” Chen Chen pinched her face. “I was scared to death.”

Tuan Zi rarely cried, and she had cried twice totally since she could speak. She first cried when Chen Chen was sick and she thought Chen Chen was going to die. Her last crying was because she got separated with Tuan Zi in a tsunami abroad, and Tuan Zi was rescued but failed to find her.

Jiang Rui interrupted her, “You dodged fairly fast just now.”

“Certainly!” Chen Chen said proudly, “I told you that I had learned taekwondo, so I can also play kung fu!” She even posed.

Tuan Zi laughed at her, “But mom, you seldom have the courage to beat anyone! Usually, you are scared to run away.”

Chen Chen glared at her and pretended to be fierce. “Why do you always give me away? I’ll punish you, so you are not allowed to eat ice cream for three days.”

“Dad, let’s eat hotpot tonight! Just a large pot.” When it came to ice cream, Tuan Zi felt hungry.

Jiang Rui looked at the darkened sky and nodded. Chen Chen snorted and complained in her mind, “You can only buy over Tuan Zi with food. Why don’t you ask me what I’d like to eat?”

While eating hotpot, Jiang Rui gave a call to Ying Cheng. To his surprise, Ying Cheng said that he was staying with Bear and unwilling to be the third wheel. After arriving home in the evening, Jiang Rui was afraid that Tuan Zi was too full, so he played with her in the living room and then let Chen Chen help her take a bath. After Tuan Zi fell asleep, Chen Chen came out of her room, only to see Jiang Rui still sitting in the living room.

“Do you have something to tell me?” Chen Chen walked up to him.

Jiang Rui nodded.

“Say it.” Chen Chen took a carton of ice cream from the refrigerator and sat opposite him.

“Why do you have still ice cream?” Jiang Rui frowned. At dinner time, he heard her tell Tuan Zi that there was no ice cream at home.

Chen Chen took a sip and looked at him. “I bought it, and do you want some?”

Jiang Rui shook his head, and Chen Chen smiled and said: “She can’t eat ice cream at night, or she will have a stomachache.”

“I know.” Jiang Rui said, “You don’t have to care about Song Chunli’s opinion. Her surname isn’t Jiang.”

Chen Chen thought for a while and asked him with her head tilted: “What about Ying Cheng?”

“He is my younger brother. I was adopted by the Ying family when I was a child, and later I went back to the Jiang family in my teens.” Jiang Rui looked at her. “In Spring Festival… I will take you to see my mother.”

“The mother… adopting you?”

Jiang Rui picked up the teacup, but did not drink. He just touched the rim of the cup and said: “She likes Tuan Zi very much, and the whole Ying family will be as kind as Chengcheng to you.”

Chen Chen found that when he talked of his relatives of the Ying family, there was tenderness in his eyes.

“OK! I know.” She nodded. “By the way, when we were in the Jiang family, why did Tuan Zi cry? Was she scared to cry by your grandmother?”

Jiang Rui seemed to hesitate when hearing her question. After a few seconds, he asked: “Have you found anything strange about Tuan Zi?”

“Something strange?” Chen Chen scratched her head, “So intelligent?”

“She inherited the intelligence,” Jiang Rui glanced at her, “from me.”

Chen Chen rolled her eyes and ignored him. “Anything else strange?”

“You always lead the wandering life with her, and have you ever met some bad guys? For example, you left Tuan Zi alone in the hotel before. You often did that, didn’t you? Did she encounter any danger, such as a trafficker and a thief?”

“We are lucky dogs!” Chen Chen patted herself on the thigh, too busy talking excitedly to Jiang Rui to eat ice cream, “We have never encountered dangers, including the traffickers. Besides, we’re especially lucky.”

Once, Tuan Zi won a free trip, but unwilling to get on the plane and hid herself in the airport. By the time Chen Chen found her, the plane had taken off. They watched the news that night and knew that the plane had an accident when it landed. Many people were injured.

“We’re so lucky, right?” Chen Chen continued, “On another occasion, it’s in the hotel. Tuan Zi had to go upstairs, so I took the trouble to climb the stairs to the 13th floor. Can you guess what happened?” She looked at Jiang Rui hopefully.

“What happened?” Jiang Rui cooperated with she said.

“The elevator was out of order and the people inside were trapped for hours!”

Probably too excited, Chen Chen took up Jiang Rui’s cup and rapidly gulped the water. When she saw Jiang Rui staring at her hand, she realized it and chuckled. “I will sterilize the cup later!”

“Don’t bother.” Jiang Rui reached out to take the cup, and took a sip when Chen Chen looked at him in surprise. “Don’t you think it’s strange?”

“Yeah, it’s strange that you don’t mind my using your cup actually…”

Seeing her blank look, Jiang Rui knew that she was distracted again, reaching out and shaking his hand in front of her face.

“What’s wrong?”

Jiang Rui sighed: “Don’t you find out that all these accidents were avoided because of Tuan Zi?”

“What do you mean?” Chen Chen looked at him perplexedly.

“It’s said that my eyes are like the radar. Do you know why?” Jiang Rui looked at her. “Because I can really feel it.”

Chen Chen shook her head. “I don’t understand.”

Jiang Rui pointed to the kitchen. “There is a little bird outside the window, and also five cats crouching on the heating pipeline.”

“I’ll go to check!” Chen Chen ran into the kitchen quickly. After a while, she ran to look at him. “How do you know?”

“It can be explained based on the bionics. My sense is like the radar derived from the bat. I can perceive everything around me, including people’s emotions.” Jiang Rui stared at her. “For example, you are very clean, but there was something misty about you. And I can’t see it clearly.”

Chen Chen hid herself behind a sofa cushion and receded to the corner of the sofa. “It’s amazing. Are you Harry Potter?”

“I told you it was not seeing things through, but a kind of sense.” Jiang Rui felt that the woman could not understand his explanation clearly at all. “Now, do you understand why Tuan Zi cried?”

“Why… why…” Chen Chen was still at a loss, as if not knowing what he was saying.

Jiang Rui clenched her fists, and he would have kicked her to death if she had been his soldier.

“Because when we were in the Jiang family in the afternoon, Song Chunli was very excited emotionally, which scared her. In the eyes of Tuan Zi, those emotions are material things.”

“Like a monster?”

“You can ask her about this.” Jiang Rui rubbed his forehead. “Before, she didn’t let you get on the plane or take the elevator, because the air around those people was too dark and gloomy, or made her uneasy. She didn’t want to get close to them instinctively.”

Chen Chen felt that she understood. “You mean that Tuan Zi has inherited your genius?”

“It should be said that she is stronger than me, and her sense system is more developed than mine.” Jiang Rui said with a flash in his eyes. “Generally speaking, you have a low IQ, so she should not have such perfect genes.”

“What do you mean?” Chen Chen got angry. “I am very smart, OK? Tuan Zi cannot have been so smart if she had inherited only your genes.”

Jiang Rui curled up the corner of his mouth. “So, what are you hiding… Or what color is it in the mist that I can’t see clearly…”
