Ji Chen, I don't know where he got the courage, stepped forward and grabbed Jiang Xue's arm that was absorbing energy.
But the moment he touched it, his fingertips seemed to touch something soft and fluffy, and he froze instantly. He was now in a situation he couldn't explain away no matter what.
Jiang Xue was still wearing very thin clothes underneath. Although it was already autumn, the original owner didn't have any thick clothes or sleeping clothes at all, only this kind of sexy sleeveless V-neck dress.
Although Jiang Xue herself makes clothes, all she thinks about is making money all day long, and she doesn't even consider that she needs to wear something more conservative when she sleeps.
Jiang Xue's face turned red to her neck, and she wished she could smash a teacup directly on Ji Chen's head, but she could feel that Ji Chen just wanted to grab her hand that was holding the teacup.
She knew that Ji Chen was not a lecherous man.
Jiang Xue had no choice but to bite the bullet and pretend nothing had happened. "Is there anything else?"
Ji Chen's dark face concealed his embarrassment well. "N-nothing..."
Jiang Xue feigned composure and coldly replied, "Oh."
Then he quickly rushed into the room, slammed the door shut, and stood behind it, his mind a complete mess, his heart pounding in his chest.
Startled, she frantically patted her chest, muttering, "When did I become so shy? Did I travel back to a more innocent era and become assimilated myself?"
"Forget it, forget it, I can't let my mind wander," she thought to herself, even inwardly criticizing herself for being such a country bumpkin who had never seen the world.
The next day, Jiang Xue finished giving Gu Xiaoling instructions early in the morning and then prepared to go to the city.
“How about we each take one child? Give me your luggage, I’ll tie it to the back seat.” Ji Chen stepped forward to take Jiang Xue’s luggage.
Jiang Xue refused directly, saying, "No need, I can bring it myself. I'll put it in front of Shaomeng."
Ji Chen remained silent, then snatched Jiang Xue's luggage away, saying, "I'll take care of it."
Jiang Xue twitched her lips and looked at Ji Chen with an embarrassed expression. But then she thought about how there were so many people in the courtyard, and she felt too embarrassed to pull and tug at him like that, making it seem so pretentious.
So he took Shaomeng with him and stepped forward.
When Jiang Xue arrived at the store, she found that it hadn't been open for many days, so she had to open the windows to ventilate it.
"You little brat, you're really something, actually playing me for a fool. Don't you even know who I am?" Li Cuilan saw Jiang Xue finally open the door.
Li Cuilan was from this area and spent her days helping people rent out rooms, earning a little money for playing mahjong. Yet, she was still fooled and tricked by Jiang Xue.
She's not someone to be trifled with; she lives alone most of the year, but there's never been a shortage of men in her household.
In addition, she still had a bit of the charm of a middle-aged woman, so much so that she divorced at the age of thirty and raised Li Guochao alone. She never went to work and still lived a very fulfilling life.
Ji Chen looked at Jiang Xue with concern. He knew that Li Guoqing's aunt was not someone to be trifled with, but Jiang Xue had somehow gotten herself into trouble with her.
"You're the one who tried to extort money from me with bad intentions, why should I swallow my anger and let you treat me like a leek to be harvested?" Jiang Xue glanced at her with disgust.
Perhaps because of the original owner's parents, she had an extreme aversion to such greedy and petty people, as well as those who were mean and cunning.
"Don't you know that I helped you rent this shop?" Li Cuilan looked at Jiang Xue with a smug expression.
"I told you to get out, so you can get out anytime. I'm telling you now, pack your things and get out."
