Chapter 155: Chapter 154: Older Man

Jiang Yao couldn’t help but complain after hearing this, "What kind of ill-fated beauty are you, to have such bad luck? Last time with Luo Bin, the security camera just happened to be broken, and this time, although there finally was surveillance, it was blocked."

After the crew had set up their respective tents, Wen Qiao asked Jiang Yao to find four pieces of cloth to cover the surroundings of the tent to shield it from the sun.

That really backfired, akin to lifting a rock only to drop it on her own foot.

Wen Qiao also sighed, "Maybe, heaven doesn’t want my path to fame to be too smooth. After all, they say that before heaven assigns a great responsibility to someone, it must first weary their mind, toil their muscles and bones, and leave them—"

She hadn’t finished reciting the poem when her growling stomach interrupted her.

"..."

Fu Jinghen hadn’t said anything yet when Jiang Yao quickly stopped her, "No! You can’t eat anything at night!"

Knowing there was no persuading Jiang Yao, Wen Qiao then turned for comfort to her own boyfriend, rubbing her stomach and looking pitifully at Fu Jinghen, "I’m hungry."

"What would you like to eat?" Fu Jinghen asked.

"I want fried chicken."

Fu Jinghen responded, "Then stay hungry."

Wen Qiao: "?"

How did it turn out this way?

-

After the cramping in her leg subsided, Wen Qiao got off Fu Jinghen.

After all, there were other people around and though Wen Qiao quite cherished his warm and comfortable embrace, it wasn’t appropriate to keep clinging to him.

Once she returned to her original seat, Fu Jinghen leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes for a quick rest.

Watching the familiar surroundings slowly coming into focus, Wen Qiao belatedly realized something.

Was Fu Jinghen doing that on purpose just now?

To tempt her?

Then embarrass her, avenging her previous teasing when she had bitten his ear?

This man was too wicked!

Too scheming!

Too petty!

She was a woman after all! And moreover, his fiancée—was such tit-for-tat necessary?

Thinking this, Wen Qiao turned her head to look at the man beside her who was resting with closed eyes, and slapped him awake.

"Wake up, what are you sleeping for? We’re almost home."

Fu Jinghen was slightly confused by this abrupt slap as he opened his eyes, looking at Wen Qiao with a slight frown.

This woman really never settled down for a moment.

The car smoothly stopped in front of Yujia Garden, and Wen Qiao was the first to jump out of the car.

Following the sound of the door closing, Fu Jinghen keenly heard Wen Qiao mumbling—

"Sleep, sleep, sleep, that’s all you know. Such a short trip back and still needs to close his eyes, typical of an old man."

"?"

-

On the other side, Jiang Wei came back to her apartment and still looked upset as she reclined on the sofa with a frown, her mind uncontrollably replaying the scenes she had witnessed at the airport.

The phone rang, and Jiang Wei glanced at the caller ID before switching off the screen.

The call remained unanswered and automatically hung up. When the screen lit up again, a new message came in.

Impatiently clicking her tongue, Jiang Wei opened the WeChat message.

[Mom: Weiwei, are you busy?]

[It’s Weiwei, not tiny Wei: Just took a shower, didn’t hear the phone. What’s up?]

[Mom: Oh, nothing important. It’s just that your father has always wanted to secure Fu Family’s new city development project. He was following up on it quite well until a few days ago when the bidding results came out, and another company won. Since you see Jinghen more often, we were hoping you could ask him about the situation.]

Upon reading this message, Jiang Wei felt an icy chill throughout her body.
