At Jiang residence.

Jiang Yang and Jiang Yuyan were watching a movie after lunch.

"That was good!" He chuckled, excited at the action scenes in the movie.

"Yeah. These action sequences are comedic, and it's Jackie Chan's movie… it's bound to be entertaining," Jiang Yuyan said with excitement that matched her brothers, praising her all-time favorite actor.

"This is the only thing we enjoy together. Otherwise, we are always bickering and annoying each other," he said in a teasing tone.

Both of them were hardcore fans of Jackie Chan and liked to see his movies together. It didn't matter which film they watched as they had a full collection of his movies in their home in America.

"Don't start again. Let me enjoy the movie. It's the last fighting scene and the climax of the movie." She was completely immersed in the movie.

The two lazily lay on the sofa after watching the movie.

"Do you remember the time when we were kids and joined Kung fu classes after watching these movies?" Jiang Yang asked with a smile.

"Yeah! We were crazy back then." She smiled, reminiscing.

"Indeed! Do you still remember how to fight?" he asked, sure that she had forgotten.

"As much as I remember to breathe," she said proudly.

"But you never used it. I thought you forgot," he commented, looking at her direction.

"I don't like unnecessary violence," she was righteous in her words. There was a little arrogance about the way she said it.

"Yeah, you are right. Taking into account how often you get angry, I would have spent my time in the hospital treating patients you hit." Jiang Yang winked at her.

"I don't do that anymore." Jiang Yuyan pouted.

"I know, and I like this side of yours more," there was the familiar warmth in his voice.

"Huh! Me too," she smiled. "By the way, when are you going to join the hospital?" she continued.

"I'm supposed to join tomorrow, but I plan on extending it by a week so that I can enjoy the summer vacation," he said, stretching his legs, an image of laziness. Jiang Yuyan hummed in response. "What about you?" he continued. "When are you going to start college?"

"I'll let my parents decide. They must have everything figured out if they called me back," she shrugged.

"You are right. This is for you." Jiang Peizhi walked out of his study with a white envelope in his hand. He handed it over to her and sat on the sofa.

"What's this?" She asked when she received the envelope.

"These are the doc.u.ments related to your admission in the Capital University of Business Management," their father said.

"One of the best university in the country and across the world! Lucky," Jiang Yang whistled.

"Not lucky. She deserved it," Jiang Peizhi said with pride.

"Yes, father! I forgot she has excellent grades," he said dotingly.

"The course will start from next month," Jiang Peizhi informed.

Jiang Yuyan muttered a quick okay.

"But the university is on the other side of the city. It will take two hours for her to travel to and from home. It will be very tiresome for her," he commented.

"That's why I plan on arranging her to stay in the dormitory," their father said offhandedly.

"Then I'll be alone at home when the two of you go back to work!" he groaned. "I'll be so bored."

"But I'll be happy to get rid of you." Jiang Yuyan laughed in delight.

"Keep it with you. And don't forget, we have to attend the anniversary celebration in the evening. Be ready at around 6 o'clock." Jiang Peizhi said before standing up and leaving.

"I'll keep it in my room," she said that and left for her room upstairs.

Jiang Yuyan put the envelope in the drawer of the cabinet and lay down on the bed. There was a gentle knock on the door before it slid open, revealing Jiang Yang with a shopping bag in his hand.

"Why did you come to my room? Let me rest for a while," she said when she saw him standing at the door. She closed her eyes again.

"I have something for you." He stepped towards the bed and waved the packet in front of her face.

"What's that?" She opened her eyes and looked at the bag. "Wait! Those are the same shopping bags you—"

Before she could continue, he spoke. "Don't worry! There are no undergarments inside." He gave the bag to her.

Jiang Yuyan sat on the corner of the bed and pulled out a beautiful gift box from the bag. She opened it and saw there was a beautiful dress inside. A note dedicated to her lay inside it, as well.

As she took the dress out of the bag, she noticed that it was the same one she had observed from the restaurant. She couldn't help but stare at her brother in wonder.

"Feeling overwhelmed?" he asked.

She nodded.

"Well, you should. Do you know how much time I wasted for this? When I went to that shop, I thought, I'll be able to finish it in 15 minutes, but it took me thirty minutes just because of your cup size."

"Again?" She frowned but didn't say anything as she was happy to receive the gift.

"Didn't I tell you that the dress would look good on a girl with better assets? The salesgirl took twenty minutes to search for it in your size."

"Don't lie. How could you guess the size just by looking at the dress?" she asked.

"I am a man, after all. One should have great observation skills, as well." He winked at her.

She got up from the bed and walked towards her brother. "There is something on your head," she said, raising her hand and brushing on his hair.
