To pluck Shi Wang, the aloof flower of the legal world, Jiang Wannuan relentlessly pursued him for three years.
Hearing he liked gentle and virtuous girls, she was willing to hide her identit...
Chapter 179 A feeling of déjà vu
"Xu Moli?"
Shi Wang hesitated for a moment, but finally stood up and pushed open the closed door of Xu Moli's room.
The sight of the empty room that had been obviously tidied up made his originally cold pupils shrink suddenly. At the same time, he immediately called Xu Moli.
As expected, no one answered the call, which made Shi Wang's already tired and calm eyes become increasingly dangerous.
Xu Moli is gone.
He left without saying goodbye. Did he encounter some danger?
Or maybe she knew something in advance, so she hurriedly left the hotel on the eve of her return.
Things were really developing in a direction beyond his expectations and becoming more and more "interesting".
Shi Wang gritted his teeth in silence, and after a long while, he lit a cigarette on the balcony, then extinguished it fiercely, picked up his phone again and made a call.
"Hey, Xu Moli is missing."
"Well, please help me keep an eye on where she is now."
…
The next morning, inside the Jiang family’s villa.
Jiang Wanning woke up in a very warm embrace.
The first ray of sunlight outside the window fell on her long and narrow eyelashes, giving her the feeling of seeing the sunrise through the clouds.
At the same time, she was staring at Xie Yanchuan's profile, which seemed to be still asleep, and a barely perceptible blush appeared at the base of her ears.
After they washed up last night, she really couldn't bear to see Xie Yanchuan with his long arms and legs curled up alone in the narrow sofa.
In the end, she relented and asked the other person to sleep in the same bed with her.
Anyway, the two of them are a legitimate engaged couple, so it's reasonable for them to sleep in the same bed.
Besides, Xie Yanchuan also took into consideration her injuries and would not do anything to her. In addition, the bed in the bedroom was so big that it would be no problem for the two of them to sleep on each side without interfering with each other.
After preparing herself mentally, Jiang Wanning finally "controlled" Xie Yanchuan onto the bed by both coaxing and threatening him, even though Xie Yanchuan looked at her with an ambiguous expression and was about to say no.
After that... this is the scene before our eyes.
Jiang Wanning carefully raised her eyes and took a look. After finally confirming that she had not been obedient while sleeping and rolled into the man's arms, she felt even more disheartened.
At the same time, she looked up at Xie Yanchuan's face, which had become noticeably more obedient than usual when he was asleep, and she felt even more deeply that she was like that "weird aunt who seduced decent women and men."
Thinking of this, Jiang Wanning prepared to quietly move back to her original position before anyone noticed.
But she didn't expect that as soon as she moved, a big hand restrained her waist: "Where are you going?"
Xie Yanchuan opened his tightly closed eyes, and his eyes were clear. It was obvious that the other party had woken up a long time ago and was just pretending to be asleep.
At this moment, his hoarse voice, with some sleepiness, sounded from above Jiang Wanning's head, as if the two of them were an old married couple who were intimate and at ease for many years.
Such a scene made Jiang Wanning feel an inexplicable sense of familiarity and burden.
As expected, the moment this thought came to her mind, Xie Yanchuan's seemingly aggrieved question rang in her ears: "Are you going to abandon me again, Ningning?"
Jiang Wanning, who had failed to escape and was caught on the spot, said: "..."
"Stop, stop! What do you mean by again? Why do you make me look like a scumbag who abandoned me after having sex with me?"
In response, Xie Yanchuan just looked at her with a dim gaze, as if he didn't want to comment on this answer.
All right.
Jiang Wanning was suddenly at a loss for words when she recalled the past.
It seemed like she had done something a little unkind that time.
However, Jiang Wanning's motto has always been to gain the upper hand even if she's wrong, so she threatened him with a smile, "Really? Do you really think so? Xie Yanchuan."
At this moment the sky is just getting bright and the sun is shining brightly.
Xie Yanchuan leaned against the head of the bed, lowering his eyes to look at Jiang Wanning who was standing so close to him.
The other person's eyes were so clear, so vivid, and so close, as if they instantly filled his once bloody and empty heart.
Finally, after a moment of silence, he could no longer hold back his laughter.
"Xie Yanchuan!"
Jiang Wanning, who didn't expect the other party to react like this, really gritted her teeth.
But when she saw the smile that suddenly appeared on the other person's face, she was unconsciously stunned for a moment.
In my impression, Xie Yanchuan is always mature, steady and thoughtful, as if nothing he encounters is enough to cause him to have too much emotional fluctuation.
No matter whether he was happy, sad or angry, Xie Yanchuan always gave her the feeling of being calm and composed. It seemed like this was the first time she had seen him laughing so heartily.
Coupled with the fact that the other person's face was obviously younger and more childish because of his loose hair, Jiang Wanning felt as if she was in a trance, and she felt that he was just a boy one year younger than her.
But apart from all this, Jiang Wanning was even more surprised because this was the first time she had seen Xie Yanchuan express his emotions so openly.
But she had an inexplicable feeling in her heart that she seemed to be very familiar with Xie Yanchuan like this.
But at this moment, she inexplicably couldn't remember any clues about when and where she had seen him.
It just so happened that the servant in charge of today's breakfast had already prepared breakfast and called out to the two of them outside the door.
Only then did they stop playing around, tidy themselves up and get off the bed. At the same time, Jiang Wanning couldn't help but shake her head, temporarily putting aside the inexplicable and strange emotion from before.
Jiang Wanning and Xie Yanchuan moved to the restaurant at the same time. Old Master Chen seemed to have not recovered from what happened yesterday and was still sleeping.
She told the servants not to disturb the old man for the time being.
At the same time, Jiang Wanning also brought the vegetarian noodles that the servants had prepared long ago to the table and began to eat them in small bites.
In the past, their family's breakfast always consisted of sandwiches, fried eggs and milk. It seemed that no one knew when it started, but it became a stomach-nourishing meal like vegetarian noodles, multi-grain soy milk and so on.
Jiang Wanning thought about it carefully, and it seemed that it was after Xie Yanchuan mentioned that her stomach was not in good condition that she gradually started to become like this.
Not knowing how the man communicated with his chef and persuaded them to listen to his suggestion, Jiang Wanning shook her head helplessly.
Just as her bowl of noodles was about to be finished, she received a video call from Jiang Wenzhou.
"Hey, Wan Ning, I heard Qing Yan said that you went back to Xingguo after being discharged from the hospital? I've been busy at the company these days and haven't had time to ask you."
"Yes." Jiang Wanning had just finished her noodles and nodded as she wiped her mouth gracefully. "I still have work to do at the company. I can't just be a hands-off boss after just coming here."
"As your brother, I'm very pleased that you have this heart."
Jiang Wenzhou rarely agreed. After not seeing his elder brother for a while, it seemed that he had gradually adapted to the work at the headquarters. He also gradually returned to his previous elegant, calm and nonchalant appearance from being a little embarrassed at the beginning.
However, his carelessness soon became apparent when he caught a glimpse of the man sitting in the corner next to Jiang Wanning.
"Wait, Jiang Wanning!"
"Who's the person sitting next to you? Don't tell me it's Xie Yanchuan... How long has it been since this brat started showing up?"
