Chapter 214: Sleeping late?



Jiang Xi naturally also noticed the kiss mark on the other person's neck. She forced herself to look away, and when she met Yu Li's gaze, a sincere smile appeared on her face.

"It's like this. Actually, I'm an editor of a newspaper. I want to report on what happened in this building, but I need to get the informed consent of the residents first, so I'd like to trouble you to sign it."

She said, handing over the list in her hand.

The names of the residents of the two-story building are all on it, and from bottom to top, the second and fourth floors have signed, and even Rong Ya's name is written on it.

Yu Li lowered her eyes and glanced at him, curling her lips, and folded her arms without moving: "Does everyone have to sign? My husband is not at home, how about you come later?"

Jiang Xi was stunned for a moment, then quickly shook his head, "No, actually each family can just send one representative."

"Really? Then let's wait for my husband to come back and ask him to sign." Yu Li yawned and rubbed her sore waist.

She was a little sleepy because she stayed up quite late last night trying to appease a jealous boyfriend.

When Jiang Xi heard this, he instantly knew that the other party had made up his mind not to sign.

She immediately switched to the emotional card, a sad expression on her face, and begged in a tone:

"Actually, I'm in a hurry right now. I stayed up all night to finish this press release, and I just want to send it out today. Can you sign it now?"

"My boss said that if I can't complete this business, he will fire me and our company will go bankrupt. I haven't even received my salary yet. I am just waiting for this big news to make some money back."

As she spoke, a few tears squeezed out of the corners of her eyes, looking so pitiful.

Hearing this, the woman blinked and said with sympathy: "So pitiful."

Jiang Xi nodded quickly: "Yes, yes."

"Then let me be pitiful for one more day."

The tone is gentle and the attitude is indifferent.

Jiang Xi: “…” Girl, don’t be like this.

Seeing the door about to close again, she suddenly sighed, as if she had given up completely.

He said helplessly: "Since Madam won't cooperate, I can only go to Mr. Bai to sign now."

How could a wife with a compulsive desire for control allow other women to get close to her husband?

Sure enough, as soon as Jiang Xi finished speaking, he saw the door in front of him was suddenly opened.

The woman narrowed her eyes and stared at her with cold eyes. Her gaze seemed to become substance, like a dangerous and cold poisonous snake that slithered across her body inch by inch.

Jiang Xi clenched the document in his hand, pretending not to feel the other party's murderous intent, and continued to play dumb, pulling out a flattering smile: "Madam... have you changed your mind?"

"Oh."

The woman pulled the corner of her mouth, stretched out her hand, and said impatiently, "Give it to me."

"Okay, okay." Jiang Xi quickly handed over the document and breathed a sigh of relief.

Sure enough, what Xu Wei cared about most was that other women had contact with Bai Jingmo.

A few seconds later, the order was returned to her, and the woman still stared at her unkindly: "Jiang Xi, don't forget my warning to you in the elevator."

Jiang Xi's hands trembled, and he quickly smiled and whispered, "Don't worry, Madam. I'm doing this for a living. I have no choice."

What responded to her was Xu Wei's sneer and the door being ruthlessly closed with a "bang".

Jiang Xi took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.

It’s really not easy.

She subconsciously glanced up ahead, her eyes froze for a moment, and her pupils shrank.

This word...

After looking at the closed door, Jiang Xi hurried towards the elevator.

After she left, the door that had been closed was reopened.

Yu Li leaned against the door with her arms folded, sighing as she watched the other person leave.

"You're actually trying to provoke me..."

Turning her head to look at the door next door, Yu Li raised her eyebrows slightly, and raised the corners of her mouth with a meaningful smile.

In fact, she was more curious about what kind of person Rong Fan was.

At this time, in Mu Chengsi's room on the sixth floor

Rong Fan put down the medicine box and looked at the other two men. "You all found a good reason to leave? Did you not find anything unusual?"

Chen Zhixia nodded. "I've found one. I told them I'm looking for a job. They shouldn't doubt it."

Rong Fan looked at Bai Jingmo again, "You?"

"It should be fine. I left a note."

There was nothing unusual in Bai Jingmo's tone. He glanced at Rong Fan nonchalantly and said, "Because she was still resting when I left. She went to bed late last night."

Rong Fan’s face suddenly turned dark: “…”

Sleeping late?

Is it necessary to add this sentence? What does it mean? Why do you sleep late? What do you do?

On the bed, Mu Chengsi, who had changed the medicine, turned his head away silently, his eyes calm and dull, with a look of despair on his face.

Ever since she found out last night that Yu Li was Xu Wei, she has been completely heartbroken.

She said how could Bai Jingmo get involved with an NPC so casually, she should have guessed it earlier.

Mu Chengsi closed his eyes, sighed, and turned to look at Rong Fan: "Are Xiaoyun and Xiaozhi at your house now?"

Mu Chengsi's voice interrupted Rong Fan's strange emotions. He pushed his glasses and replied calmly, "I was playing with Rong Ya downstairs, and I found that they didn't seem to remember what happened after the mutation last night."

"Don't remember?" Mu Chengsi was stunned for a moment, then heaved a sigh of relief, "It's okay if you don't remember."

Rong Fan said, "But now we are not sure if there will be any abnormalities tonight. We were lucky enough to escape last night, but it may not be that easy today."

Chen Zhixia pulled his hair irritably. He always had a bad feeling. Mu Chengsi and Rong Fan had both encountered the same thing, so he wouldn't be the next one.

He rubbed the sleeping pills in his pocket with his fingertips, thinking that he should drug the two old men first at night. Maybe if they fell asleep, they wouldn't mutate.

Rong Fan glanced out the window and said, "Let's go and come back quickly while the other residents haven't come out yet."

But they didn't expect that as soon as they reached the stairwell, they saw a familiar figure and stopped in their tracks.

The man was sitting on the stairs going down. He turned around slowly after hearing the sound. Their figures were reflected quietly in his dark and silent pupils, and a dark aura emanated from his body.

Chen Zhixia frowned, "Zhang Jialin? Why are you here?"

After what happened last night, the other party has been hiding in the room. When did he escape?

When he saw the familiar knife in the other person's hand, his pupils shrank: "Where did you get this thing from?"

He had clearly taken the sharp objects with him before he left, so how did this knife appear in Zhang Jialin's hand again? !

But Zhang Jialin seemed to be in a trance at this moment. He held the knife, curled up on the steps, and kept muttering: "I want to kill the monster, I want to kill the monster."

Rong Fan wanted to step forward and take the knife from his hand, but Zhang Jialin became even more agitated, and said with bloodshot eyes: "Get out of here! Don't touch me! Otherwise I will kill you!"

Rong Fan stopped moving for a moment. He looked in the direction leading to the fifth floor and frowned.

It seems that there is no way down now.

A hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes, and he glanced at Bai Jingmo behind him, but no emotion could be heard in his tone.

"Let's go to the seventh floor first."
