The Time-Limited Love and Marriage-Chapter 283
Chapter 283: Chapter 283
The following evening, Jiang Moxi arrived at the Ling Family home to tutor Ling Hua and was nearly half an hour late.
Ling Hua curiously sized up Jiang Moxi’s delicate face, which didn’t seem to have a single pore, marveling to herself that Jiang Moxi had grown even more beautiful overnight, she couldn’t help but ask: "Sister Moxi, why are you so late?"
Jiang Moxi’s ears turned unconsciously red upon hearing Ling Hua’s question.
In fact, she only woke up an hour ago.
Perhaps it was the lack of intimacy recently, but when Fu Youhan took her to the suite at Emperor Hotel last night, he tossed and turned with her, not letting her close her eyes all night long.
Jiang Moxi, worn out and drained, slept until the sun was almost setting before slowly awakening.
Thinking of those embarrassing scenes, she hurriedly said: "What’s a child like you asking about!"
"I’m only two years younger than you, I’m not that young." Ling Hua muttered, then asked: "If not that, then can you tell me who arranged the drone show for you yesterday? Was it my uncle?"
Jiang Moxi’s hands, while unpacking papers, paused for a moment.
She looked at Ling Hua, trying to see through her bright and innocent eyes whether Ling Hua knew about her relationship with Fu Youhan.
But before Jiang Moxi could discern anything, Ling Ye’s voice came over.
"Huahua, brains are a good thing! Brother hopes you can have one too!"
Consequently, Ling Hua had no chance to keep questioning Jiang Moxi, she glared at Ling Ye annoyed: "How do I not have brains?"
"If you had brains, you wouldn’t link Moxi with our uncle! You should think about it, how old is our uncle and how old is Moxi, it’s impossible for our uncle to like a little girl like Moxi!"
Ling Ye also added: "Uncle would probably prefer mature, intelligent and capable women, not a brat like Moxi, he certainly wouldn’t touch her."
Ling Ye analyzed confidently, making Jiang Moxi’s lips twitch violently several times.
If this guy knew that his sophisticated and elegant uncle had been nibbling on her, Jiang Moxi, all night long, what would his expression be?
However, Jiang Moxi did not have the habit of exposing her private life, so she did not join in the siblings’ skirmish.
"How do you know that uncle definitely doesn’t like Sister Moxi?" Ling Hua was quite fond of the idea of Jiang Moxi and Fu Youhan together.
Every time she saw their interactions, Ling Hua always felt the air was filled with pink bubbles.
But Ling Ye insisted confidently: "Because we are all men. And my guess isn’t unfounded; you know that our uncle’s vocabulary never contains words like ’I’m sorry’. But look at yesterday’s fireworks show, it was all saying sorry to Moxi."
Ling Hua suddenly felt that Ling Ye’s analysis really made some sense.
Because she had never seen Fu Youhan apologize to anyone so earnestly before.
After all, Fu Youhan, regardless of background or ability, has always been a cut above the rest, so even if he were in the wrong, he wouldn’t need to apologize, and others wouldn’t dare to ask for an apology.
However, what the two didn’t know was that their conversation had inadvertently revealed some things to Jiang Moxi.
"What ’I’m sorry’?" Jiang Moxi was puzzled.
She heard fireworks the previous night but didn’t know their specific content.
Because Fu Youhan had been kissing her the whole time, kissing her until she almost couldn’t breathe, leaving her no chance to think of anything else.
"It was from yesterday’s firework show, all saying ’Xixi, I’m sorry’. Sister Moxi, didn’t you see it?"
Ling Hua even enthusiastically took out her phone with the video she had recorded from yesterday and handed it to Jiang Moxi: "I happened to capture a short video yesterday, take a look for yourself."
Jiang Moxi quickly saw in the video the words that appeared under the quiet night sky, lit up by the dazzling fireworks...
"Xixi, I’m sorry."
Jiang Moxi immediately narrowed her eyes.
Because Fu Youhan would only ever call her Xixi, and as Ling Ye had said, Fu Youhan rarely ever uttered words such as "I’m sorry."
So this fireworks show likely wasn’t his doing.
As for who had arranged it, a certain figure already emerged in Jiang Moxi’s mind.
And she seemed to have suddenly realized why Fu Youhan lost control last night.
After finishing helping Ling Hua with her studies, Jiang Moxi even went out of her way to make a phone call to Feng Ming.
"Brother, I can’t come to see you for the time being. You have to manage the intensity of your training yourself, don’t overdo it, and strive for a speedy recovery."
As soon as the call connected, Jiang Moxi immediately told Feng Ming this.
Upon hearing this, Feng Ming’s heart thumped: "What happened? Are you in trouble?"
"Feng Yu came looking for me."
Jiang Moxi’s words silenced Feng Ming on the other end of the phone for a good while.
Jiang Moxi guessed that Feng Ming must have thought of certain people and events he least wanted to recall and then added: "No matter what, we can’t let Feng Yu find you for now. Once you’ve fully recovered and want to fight back, I’ll be with you."
Hearing this, Feng Ming barely extracted himself from those memories, his tone weary: "I understand. But Xixi, you need to take good care of yourself and be careful when dealing with Feng Yu."
"I know."
Jiang Moxi heard the tiredness and vacancy in Feng Ming’s voice and didn’t insist on chatting. After reminding him not to engage in excessively intense rehabilitation training, she hung up.
She quickly made another call.
The person on the other end of the line picked up promptly, and with a tone full of trepidation, said: "Miss Xi, what can I do for you?"
"Fang Jin, you told Feng Yu about my situation, didn’t you?" Jiang Moxi seemed to be questioning Fang Jin, but her tone was certain.
Fang Jin on the other end of the line knew he couldn’t hide it and hurriedly admitted his fault: "I’m sorry, Miss Xi. After I broke Miss Qin’s leg that day, the Qin Family went to complain to the master."
Then, Fang Jin also told Jiang Moxi about Feng Yu taking revenge for her by breaking a leg of each member of the three-person Qin Family.
Jiang Moxi, upon learning that Feng Yu had also taken action against the Qin Family, was not very grateful: "Tell him not to meddle in my affairs!"
Fang Jin hesitated slightly and asked Jiang Moxi: "How about meeting with the master in person? He has recently been in Yan City!"
"No need." Jiang Moxi gave a concise reply and then promptly hung up.
But Fang Jin did not dare to delay for a second and hurriedly informed Feng Yu of Jiang Moxi’s call.
Knowing that Jiang Moxi was still so averse to meeting him, Feng Yu allowed his entire body to sink into the lounge chair, his posture lazy and decadent.
"Fang Jin, the boy who cried wolf too many times seems to no longer be believed. Tell me, what should be done now?"
Fang Jin didn’t know what to do either and wasn’t sure how to respond to Feng Yu.
However, it seemed Feng Yu wasn’t expecting an answer from him and just closed his eyes on his own, seemingly entering into a sleep...
