Chapter 332 Uncle!
Just as Jiang Bai was in a panic.
aside.
Zhang Cheng was maintaining the standard bowing posture of a junior meeting his brother-in-law, his bloodshot eyes behind his glasses staring straight at Jiang Bai's face.
Because of the extremely close distance, Zhang Cheng could even see the incredibly fine pores on Jiang Bai's skin.
"It looks...it really looks like it."
Zhang Cheng screamed wildly in his heart, his breathing becoming rapid.
The young man before him, with his cool and resolute expression, was exactly the same as Jiang Baizhi he had seen on the screen!
That kind of genetic beauty that connects people by blood instantly captivated Zhang Cheng, a designer who calls himself an "aesthetics master".
Jiang Bai still possessed extremely high charm and retained some of the divine aura he had just shed.
and so.
Even in men's clothing, there's an irresistible urge to get close to it, even to "protect" it.
As Zhang Cheng watched, his eyes unconsciously revealed a hint of... an extremely strange doting and affectionate look.
The look in his eyes was as if he were looking at his future brother.
It's as if he's gazing at that untouchable goddess through Jiang Bai!
Here.
Jiang Bai was trying to come up with a solution when he was swept over by that gaze, and goosebumps instantly erupted all over his body from his tailbone to the back of his head.
"Holy crap! System! Help!!"
Looking at Zhang Cheng, whose face was flushed and whose eyes were burning with fervor, Jiang Bai gradually became apprehensive.
"Tongzi, did you see that? Cheng-ge's looking at me strangely!"
"Was that the look he gave his brother-in-law?"
"That look he's giving 'Little Sweetie' is clearly the kind of look he's giving her!"
"I'm a real man now. Did he get his brain warped by the climate in Thailand while on a business trip?!"
"Damn! This guy not only lusts after me in women's clothing, but now the way he looks at me in men's clothing is so weird too?"
"Could it be that he's bisexual???"
[Ding! Host, please acknowledge your charm. 13 points of charm are universally appealing. Right now, in Zhang Cheng's eyes, you're not only the 'goddess's brother,' but also the 'future brother-in-law who looks remarkably like the goddess.' He's trying to find a sense of identification with you!]
Jiang Bai broke out in a cold sweat.
He knew all too well that while the boys in women's clothing were enthusiastic, at least they still had the logic of "opposites attract".
But if you get noticed by these "old guys" while dressed as a man, that would be a real career-destroying blow!
"No, I have to save myself!"
Jiang Bai's eyes flashed with anger, and his brain raced.
Old Zhang had previously instructed him to hide whenever he saw Zhang Cheng.
But it's too late to hide now; the best defense is offense!
Got it!
"Tongzi, you're talking about immersion? You're making me imagine myself as the male version of Jiang Baizhi?"
"Fine! I'll show him right now what 'despair caused by seniority' truly means!"
Thinking of this, Jiang Bai forcibly suppressed the urge to give him a heavy punch.
His expression instantly switched to that of a college student—simple and confused.
He looked at Zhang Cheng, blinked his clear, bright eyes, and in a youthful voice, called out to Zhang Cheng politely yet loudly:
"Uncle, what did you just call me? Brother...brother-in-law?"
That shout of "Uncle!" was so loud it completely drowned out the sound of people slurping noodles at the next table!
"What did you call me?"
"Uncle... Uncle?"
The thousand words Zhang Cheng had prepared in his mind were choked back down by these two words in that instant.
His once straight spine swayed suddenly, and his eyes behind his glasses almost popped out.
Jiang Bai pretended not to notice his embarrassment at all, and instead took half a step forward with a concerned expression, asking:
"Yes, uncle! Judging from your age, you must be a parent here for the school sports meet, right?"
"I just heard you call someone 'brother-in-law,' are you sure you haven't got the wrong person?"
"Or is your son also named Jiang Bai?"
"Judging from your age, your child should be in college by now, right? Is they in our department? Do you need me to help you find one?"
As Jiang Bai spoke, he naturally emphasized the words "uncle" and "your son".
uncle.......
Uncle... My brother-in-law calls me uncle...
Do not! ! !
Every time Jiang Bai called out "Uncle," Zhang Cheng felt as if a boulder had struck his heart.
And every time he mentions "son".
Zhang Cheng felt that his soul as a 28-year-old designer, in the prime of his life, was being ruthlessly stuffed into the wrinkled body of an old man.
"I...I'm not old."
Zhang Cheng straightened his chest, trying to salvage the last shred of dignity, but his voice was so weak it was barely audible:
"I'm only twenty-eight this year, and I work at Tiancheng Design Institute in Shanghai..."
"I...I'm young and have a bright future..."
Although I worked several nights in the design institute, my hairline receded by a mere 0.1 millimeters.
But he always considered himself a "mature, elite man"!
How come in his brother-in-law's words, he's like an old man about to retire and collect his pension?
"Twenty-eight?"
Jiang Bai gave an extremely exaggerated expression of amazement, then smiled憨厚ly:
"You're not old, but I'm only eighteen, and you're ten years older than me."
"In my hometown, if someone is ten years older than you, you really have to call them uncle. It's a family tradition, and you can't mess up the generational order."
As Jiang Bai spoke, he casually added another jab:
"Uncle, if you're looking for your son, go check the first floor."
"The second floor is where we young people eat."
"Well, I'm going to eat now. Goodbye, Uncle!"
After saying that, Jiang Bai didn't give Zhang Cheng any chance to retaliate. He turned around and looked for his roommates.
As he walked, Jiang Bai scoffed inwardly.
"28 isn't old? Rounding up, you've already lived half your life; you still have half of old age left!"
"Someone like you, trying to hook up with a younger woman?"
"This tender grass of mine not only has thorns, but it's also poisonous!"
"Besides, even if I really did have a sister, you're ten years older than me and you think you can be my brother-in-law? Dream on!"
