“Bang!”
The door was slammed with some force, causing even the windows to tremble.
Shen Shichu turned around, laughing as he scolded her, “You’re not allowed to play this kind of joke on me.”
He put on his suit and said before leaving, “Finish your breakfast, I’ll come look for you when I’m free.”
Nan Jiaojiao responded and, once he was gone, she set down the sandwich she was holding, wondering just how angry Bo Yanching was by now.
Right then, the bedroom door opened, and the man leaned against the door frame, with only a few buttons done up on his shirt.
The sunlight that fell across his slightly open collar even gave his collarbone a sort of lazy nobility.
“What was that thing that fell just now?” Nan Jiaojiao was grasping at straws to make conversation.
In Bo Yanching’s hand was a smashed wristwatch.
She laughed, “Still couldn’t save it, huh?
Was it expensive?
Should I compensate you?”
Bo Yanching’s gaze was faint, with a hint of inquiry, his thin lips curved slightly, “You can’t afford to compensate.”
Nan Jiaojiao felt something caught in her throat, nearly choking to death.
She awkwardly took a couple of sips of milk to clear it.
When she looked up, she found Bo Yanching still watching her, which made her heart flutter, and she instinctively protected the pudding in front of her.
She didn’t dare to feed him these foods.
They were prepared by his rightful wife.
“I’ll cook noodles for you instead.”
Nan Jiaojiao headed to the kitchen, stealing a glance at Bo Yanching’s expression.
She found his smile eerily disconcerting and recalled how tender he had been the previous night, which made him seem untouchable now that he was fully dressed. This chapter was taken from novelping.com without permission.
The relationship between her and him was indeed awkward.
Nan Jiaojiao cooked two bowls of noodles.
When Bo Yanching finished his shower, they ate together.
The breakfast that Shen Shichu had made was already thrown into the trash.
Downstairs, Shen Shichu watched the surveillance footage from last night in front of Nan Jiaojiao’s house with a cold face.
After she had returned home, she had not come out again, and nobody entered.
He doubted she had the courage to actually hide a man in her house.
He didn’t sleep with her, mostly just taking advantage of the situation.
Having a sexual relationship would make things more complex.
He had bigger plans for Nan Jiaojiao.
Elsewhere, after leaving the police station, Nan Jiaojiao walked along the road towards the bus station.
Her deposition had gone exceptionally smoothly, freeing up most of her day.
“Jiaobaoer!”
Lu Zhenzhen’s voice came from the phone, “The Bo Family has placed an order with Medicine Valley!”
Nan Jiaojiao stopped hailing a cab, feeling a headache coming on, “Does Master know?”
“Bo Yanching probably hasn’t suspected you yet.
Everything is calm at your master’s.
If she knew you saved the Bo Family’s young master, she would have flipped out by now. This chapter was taken from g.com without permission.
The news I got is that Bo Yanching offered a price, three billion to bring Xiao Nanshan out for a consultation, tsk tsk, three billion…
If he knew that Xiao Nanshan was in his bed last night, engaging in a fiery exchange with him…”
Two cars collided in front of Nan Jiaojiao.
The crash was pretty severe; the car in front was thrown into a spin, taking half a turn before coming to a stop.
Nan Jiaojiao hung up the phone with a dark face, fearing that hearing more would make her die of mortification.
There seemed to have been an accident up ahead.
Nan Jiaojiao walked around it when suddenly a figure burst out, grabbing her hand and dragging her away.
“You!
It was you!”
Nan Jiaojiao looked bewilderedly at the Old Lady who appeared out of nowhere.
If she wasn’t mistaken, this Old Lady had been thrown out of the back seat when the car stopped.
“It wasn’t me, it was the car behind you.”
Nan Jiaojiao kindly pointed it out to her.
The Old Lady stared at her fiercely, teeth clenched, “It doesn’t matter, it’s your fault.
You passed by suddenly, causing me to have an accident, you’ve got to go with me!”
Was this a case of scamming for compensation?
Running a scam with luxury cars, what kind of hobby was that?
