Chapter 160 You Can Never Wake Him Up
As the black Maybach arrived at Juyue Garden, the city lights were just coming on.
"Thank you, Mr. Fu, for coming to my rescue today. I owe you another favor."
Jiang Shiyuan smiled wryly, somewhat embarrassed, "I also ruined the parent-teacher conference, I'm so sorry for not repaying your favor."
Fu Chenzhou smiled and shook his head slightly, "I didn't do anything, you don't need to thank me."
Parent-teacher conferences are nothing. I think Banban was quite happy today.
How could I not be happy? I'm swinging between my dad and "mom" like a swing! I'm so happy I could laugh myself awake!
"You've done so much, really."
Jiang Shiyuan glanced at her watch; it was just time for dinner.
Should she invite Fu Chenzhou to stay for a casual meal at her home?
But her refrigerator had nothing but noodles; inviting a business tycoon like President Fu was far too stingy.
Never mind, let's talk about it another day.
While she was pondering this, she didn't notice that Fu Chenzhou, sitting next to her, was glancing at her with expectant eyes, his starry eyes shining.
It seemed they were waiting for her invitation.
Even just to have a glass of water or sit for a while.
"Um... I'll go upstairs first." Jiang Shiyuan lowered her head and awkwardly unbuckled her seatbelt.
A barely perceptible look of disappointment flashed across Fu Chenzhou's eyes, but his handsome face quickly regained its calm and dignified composure.
Drive carefully.
After Jiang Shiyuan finished giving her earnest instructions and opened the car door, Fu Chenzhou suddenly gently tugged at the hem of her clothes:
"Miss Jiang."
A deep, clear voice echoed in the dimly lit and quiet carriage, climbing up her straight back and lingering around her ear.
The man leaned forward, his outstretched arms revealing not only the exquisite cufflinks of his black shirt, but also the red hair tie on his wrist, half-hidden and half-revealed.
“You can never wake up someone as extremely arrogant and self-conscious as Xie Jinghuai,” he said with a deep gaze.
Jiang Shiyuan smiled gently, relieved. "Thank you for your advice, Mr. Fu. I haven't had such dreams for a long time."
"That's good."
Fu Chenzhou's eyes curved like a crescent moon as he released her hand. "I wish you a smooth divorce. See you later."
...
After being rescued, Tongtong woke up two hours later.
But perhaps because he was exhausted and too tired, he fell asleep again just two minutes after waking up.
Seeing that the child was alright, Madam Xie took Qin Zhao and left first.
As soon as she got into the car, Madam Xie's face turned red and she began to shout and yell to vent her anger.
She doesn't look like a wealthy socialite; she looks more like a traumatized female baboon.
"That bitch Jiang Shiyuan... I'll get my revenge for that slap no matter what! No, when I get my chance, it won't be as simple as just one slap!"
Madam Xie's eyes widened in fury, and she practically ground every word to powder. "That bitch really got incredibly lucky! I thought that by secretly giving her abortifacients, she would never be able to conceive a Xie family child, but she still got pregnant!"
I thought she had a difficult childbirth and that she and her baby would surely perish, but she pulled through! I really don't know whether to say she's incredibly lucky or that God is blind!
Qin Zhao sat down beside her, picked up an ice pack and gently placed it on her swollen cheek, his voice cold:
"Although Jiang Shiyuan gave birth to the young master, the difficult childbirth and long-term medication have almost ruined her health. She can't have any more children unless Hua Tuo is alive. I see that the current CEO Fu is quite fond of her. If he finds out that the woman he has his eye on has lost her fertility and can't give him any children, it won't be long after the passion fades, and CEO Fu will get tired of her."
After all, an elite and talented man like President Fu would have countless women pursuing him. How could he possibly be interested in Jiang Shiyuan, a woman who had been married and had children?
Madam Xie blinked, glaring angrily at Qin Zhao's cold, hard face:
"I'm also a woman who's been married and had children. Ah Zhao, are you truly sincere towards me?"
Qin Zhao was clearly taken aback when she suddenly posed a potentially fatal question.
Seeing the man remain silent, Madam Xie instantly became embarrassed and angry, and forcefully slapped his hand away.
"I knew it, all of you men are like that..."
Before she could finish speaking, Qin Zhao suddenly grabbed her chin and forcefully kissed her.
Mrs. Xie was taken aback at first, but quickly became immersed in the man's superb kissing skills, wrapped her arms around his neck, and passionately responded to his deep kiss.
Between kisses, Qin Zhao, panting heavily, said, "Madam, after all these years, do you still doubt my feelings for you?"
Madam Xie's eyes became hazy. "I believe you... Ah Zhao, I don't believe anyone but you..."
A moment later, the black luxury car began to vibrate repeatedly in the corner of the parking lot.
...
In the hospital corridor, Lin Zhixin sat on a chair, wiping her swollen eyes with a tissue.
At that moment, a pair of familiar black leather shoes appeared before her. She slowly raised her head and met Xie Jinghuai's deep, dark phoenix eyes.
"Brother Jinghuai...I..."
Xie Jinghuai interrupted her, his thin lips moving slightly, "Tongtong is fine now, and you're tired too. I'll have Han Xu take you home."
Lin Zhixin shook her head, tears welling in her eyes, "No... I won't go back. Tongtong is sick, and there's no one to take care of him. I can't eat or sleep properly..."
"Go back. I'll stay with Tongtong. Besides, too much has happened today; I need to be alone." Xie Jinghuai's expression was cold.
"Brother Jinghuai, are you angry with me...?"
"yes."
Lin Zhixin's heart skipped a beat, "..."
“Zhixin, I arranged for you to join the Xie Group and work by my side in the hope that you can use your strengths to make great strides in the R&D department and bring about comprehensive technological innovation to the Xie Group. Not to get involved in my family affairs and foolish, superficial intrigues.”
Xie Jinghuai's misty gaze fell upon her pale face, each word heavy with meaning, like a warning:
"What happened today is the first and last time. I hope that the same misunderstanding will never happen again in the future."
Lin Zhixin's eyes were filled with resentment and grievance, "I know, Brother Jinghuai, I'm sorry..."
Xie Jinghuai took a deep breath, ultimately not wanting to be too harsh on the girl who had risked her life to save him, and gently advised:
"Go back first. I'll text you if anything happens to Tongtong."
Lin Zhixin slowly stood up, and the moment she turned around, her face instantly darkened.
Jiang Shiyuan, just you wait and see.
This is not the first time, and of course, it will certainly not be the last!
