Ji Chen didn't close his eyes until dawn.
Early in the morning, Ji Chen woke up to find that Jiang Xue was long gone. He lay on the bed feeling lost and irritable. Why did this woman have such a bad temper?
If I don't back down, she'll probably never talk to me again.
Yesterday, he went to Sun Ze'an's house to apologize for this matter and also learned about Jiang Xue's new factory.
Sun Ze'an may still be thinking about Jiang Xue, his
However, the more Sun Ze'an said this, the less of a problem there seemed to be. After all, if it were true, such behavior would be somewhat shameful, and it would be impossible to say it so openly.
Ji Chen sat on the bed and thought for a long time, deciding that he should explain things to Jiang Xue properly himself.
But when he stepped out of the room, he found that Jiang Xue was no longer home. He was puzzled. Did she have something else to do today?
Jiang Xue had a lot to do today. The newly purchased shop still needed renovation, and she didn't know if Sun Ze'an's uncle had vacated the factory.
Gu Xiaoling handed two steamed buns to Jiang Xue, saying, "Have some breakfast. Aren't you feeling unwell? I think you should go to the hospital to get it checked out."
Jiang Xue waved her hand, "It's alright, it'll be fine in a couple of days."
Gu Xiaoling glanced at Jiang Xue; she really didn't take her health seriously.
Jiang Xue was helping Gu Xiaoling tidy up when Ji Chen barged in without her noticing.
"Did you leave without saying goodbye this morning?" Ji Chen blocked Jiang Xue's path.
Seeing that the atmosphere in the shop seemed to have suddenly become extremely low, Gu Xiaoling quickly put down what she was doing and ran to Aunt Zhou's stall to chat with her, thinking that she shouldn't get in the way of the two of them.
Jiang Xue was cold and didn't want to talk to Ji Chen at all.
She even avoided physical contact with Ji Chen, deliberately and subtly trying to let him know that she didn't want him to touch her.
Ji Chen had also witnessed Jiang Xue's coldness. Without thinking twice, he grabbed Jiang Xue's hand and said, "I was wrong. It was my fault. I shouldn't have acted recklessly."
Even after he apologized, Jiang Xue still didn't really want to talk to him. She didn't know why, but she still felt a tightness in her chest, and it would take her several days to get over it.
"Won't you be hungry if you don't eat breakfast?"
Ji Chen obediently followed behind Jiang Xue, pressing her for answers.
However, Jiang Xue still ignored Ji Chen. She said to Gu Xiaoling, "Has the renovation team we contacted arrived yet? Ji Dong has already gone over there."
Jiang Xue brought Ji Dong to the city early in the morning. Jiang Xue was waiting for Gu Xiaoling to finish her work so they could go together, because she knew that the swindler would definitely show up today.
If something happens that Gu Xiaoling can't handle alone, she'll put the factory business aside for now. Originally, it was agreed that it would take three days, but now the shop can be opened in two or three days to plug all the loopholes. Then it can open anytime.
"They came over early this morning to say hello. They said they've gone over. Why don't you eat something first? Aren't you feeling unwell? Or how about I have Brother Ji Chen take you to get some noodles?"
Gu Xiaoling wasn't trying to remind Jiang Xue at all; she was deliberately saying it for Ji Chen to hear.
Before Ji Chen could even react with surprise, Aunt Zhou suddenly said, "Jiang Xue keeps feeling nauseous. It would be best if she went to the hospital to get checked out. If she is pregnant, there's no room for error."
After hearing what Gu Xiaoling and Aunt Zhou said, Jiang Xue almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
