Lin Fei’er forced a smile on her face. She walked quickly toward Su Wan and pulled a chair out to sit down.

  Her eyes swept across the delicious breakfast in front of her. There was peanut butter toast, red mulberry macarons, mousse cakes, and all kinds of Chinese food.

  Lin Fei’er’s eyes twitched. To be honest, she didn’t have much appetite now but she took one of the macarons and ate it slowly.

  Su Wan saw that Lin Fei’er did not talk much as soon as she sat down and felt that she was acting strangely today. Moreover, Lin Fei’er looked a little unwell and pale.

  Su Wan was worried. She asked softly, “Fei’er, did you not sleep well yesterday? I feel that you look a little pale. ”


  Lin Fei’er’s heart missed a beat. In fact, before she went downstairs today, she had put on a layer of powder. She did not expect Su Wan to still catch it.

  Seeing how much her friend cared for her, a bitterness arose in Lin Fei’er’s heart, but on the surface, she still appeared calm.

  “You know I get home sick. I’m not used to sleeping here, so I stayed up late. Now, I’m in low spirits.”


  Su Wan nodded. She passed some freshly-ground mocha to Lin Fei’er who was sitting next to her.

  “Then, have a cup of coffee to refresh yourself. You can have a good sleep after we send you back later.”


  Lin Fei’er accepted the coffee with a smile and declined Su Wan’s suggestion.

  “I don’t want to be the third wheel. I’ll hail a taxi at the intersection after breakfast.”


  Su Wan looked at Jiang Xuecheng helplessly but the man at the table was leisurely drinking his coffee and did not chime in.

  ***

  Jiang Haoxuan had just awoken. The hangover last night really made his head ache.

  Jiang Haoxuan got up slowly. He pushed aside his quilt and just as he wanted to put on his shoes, lots of fragmented scenes flashed through his mind like an explosion.

  He seemed to remember Sheng An’ning coming to his room yesterday. Then, what did he do?

  The warm body, the sweet fragrance of hair, and the silky skin……

  Jiang Haoxuan suddenly felt a burst of heat under his abdomen and his body unconsciously tightened.

  Although he couldn’t remember clearly, the feeling of blending with each other was so real……

  It seemed that Sheng An’ning kept crying and begging him not to do what he had done last night?

  However, he went against her will and really did that kind of thing……

  Jiang Haoxuan pursed his lips. His eyes swept across the things in the bedroom. He turned the quilt over and over again but he felt that everything was normal.

  Did he simply drink too much last night and have an unrealistic dream?

  However, he could even clearly remember that the hot tears of the girl in his embrace dropped on his arm and almost burned him.

  Jiang Haoxuan quickly put on his slippers. Then, he cleaned himself quickly and changed into a set of beautiful clothes. Only then did he rush to Sheng An’ning’s room.

  If he had really done something to Sheng An’ning last night, with her personality, she wouldn’t pretend nothing had happened.

  Jiang Haoxuan was really afraid that Sheng An’ning would be upset.

  He wanted to tell Sheng An’ning that he would be responsible till the end.

  Jiang Haoxuan straightened his collar, and then knocked on the door three times, with each knock hastier than the previous. The way he knocked the door seemed to reflect his anxiousness.

  He badly needed an answer.

  Sheng An’ning had been up for a long time but she had been trying her best to dress up. When she heard the urgent knock on the door, she frowned.

  Which porter was knocking on the door so impolitely?

  Sheng An’ning went to the door immediately. She saw Jiang Haoxuan through the peep hole and a surprised smile appeared on her face.

  “Good morning, Haoxuan. Why are you in such a hurry to look for me?”


  Jiang Haoxuan’s handsome face was slightly red. He examined Sheng An’ning’s beautiful face carefully and the scene of last night quickly appeared in his mind.

  Last night, he seemed to be so angry that he was not as gentle with Sheng An’ning as usual.

  However, Jiang Haoxuan was confused with Sheng An’ning’s attitude. The way she talked to him was as if nothing had happened.

  Jiang Haoxuan couldn’t ignore the doubt in his heart. He looked at Sheng An’ning carefully and with some shame and affection in his voice, he probed, “An’ning, last night……I was too rude towards you. I’m sorry……An’ning, you’re not mad at me, are you?”


  With Sheng An’ning’s soft and gentle character, Jiang Haoxuan naturally did not dare to mention the matter directly. He only tactfully prompted.

  Jiang Haoxuan thought that Sheng An’ning would run away crying or run into his arms. However, Sheng An’ning was stunned and did not answer.

  Sheng An’ning frowned deeper because she couldn’t understand what Jiang Haoxuan was talking about.

  Moreover, Sheng An’ning didn’t know how to describe Jiang Haoxuan’s expression but it was very delicate.

  Sheng An’ning had always been very sharp and alert but she did not guess the incident between Jiang Haoxuan and Lin Fei’er last night. She only vaguely felt that what Jiang Haoxuan said was unusual.

  A sharp light flashed through Sheng An’ning’s beautiful eyes. She gathered her eyebrows and felt that Jiang Haoxuan seemed to be very guilty toward her.

  That was something that could be used.

  Yesterday, Xu Ziyao’s attitude toward her was very bad. Sheng An’ning had always thought that she would definitely marry into the Jiang family. Now it seemed that she should try to win Jiang Haoxuan over by some means.

  Sheng An’ning smiled faintly and the girl-like shyness appeared quickly between her brows.

  “Haoxuan, what are you talking about? I’ve always regarded you as a good friend. You were a little harsh yesterday but I know you did it for my sake and I won’t take it to heart. ”


  Looking at Sheng An’ning’s shy face, Jiang Haoxuan thought he had a chance but when he heard what she said, he was confused again.

  Had he dreamed it all up?

  However, the scene in his dream was still vivid. He could even clearly remember the low cry of the woman in his arms……

  Sheng An’ning saw Jiang Haoxuan’s creased forehead, as if he was having a load in his mind. She couldn’t help but push him gently.

  “Haoxuan, I’m hungry. Let’s have breakfast first.”


  Jiang Haoxuan regained his senses and nodded. Then, he entered the elevator with Sheng An’ning.

  The space in the elevator was narrow. There was a load in Jiang Haoxuan’s mind and he felt that the air was thin.

  Jiang Haoxuan looked at Sheng An’ning’s reflection in the elevator and hesitated if he should explain more clearly.

  On the other hand, Sheng An’ning grabbed his left hand and her eyes were full of shock.

  “Haoxuan, where’s your watch?”


  Three years ago, Sheng An’ning had given Jiang Haoxuan a Patek Philippe watch on his birthday. Since then, Jiang Haoxuan had always worn it.

  It was evident that he placed importance in Sheng An’ning’s gift.

  Hearing what she said, Jiang Haoxuan frowned too. He looked at his left wrist, which was bare.

  He had left these trivial matters behind because he was in a hurry to verify what had happened last night.

  However, when he thought about it, he didn’t seem to have seen the Patek Philippe watch anywhere this morning.
