Chapter 130 What Might Have Happened
Jiang Nuanzhu remained silent, staring at Xu Heyi's face several times with a serious expression. "It seems not... But how can I know if you have any injuries through the phone?"
"I'm fine."
"I don't believe it."
Xu Heyi was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He had never seen Jiang Nuanzhu so stubborn before, so he had no choice but to take a full-body photo of her again.
"Mrs. Xu, are you relieved now?"
Jiang Nuanzhu breathed a sigh of relief, "Then why are you in the hospital?"
"A friend of mine fell ill and was taken to the hospital, and I happened to be there."
"Which friend? What's he like?" Jiang Nuanzhu asked casually.
Xu Heyi said calmly: "You don't know him."
"Okay. Well, you must be very busy at the hospital, so I won't chat with you for now."
Xu Heyi said in a deep voice: "Well, let's talk tomorrow."
When hanging up the phone, Jiang Nuanzhu saw a familiar figure flash by in the background of the video.
It seems to be...Xu Hezhi?
Jiang Nuanzhu thought she had seen it wrong and didn't think much about it.
I just turned off the lights and lay in bed. I couldn't sleep for a while, and the more I thought about it, the weirder it seemed.
Xu Heyi said that he didn't have many friends, and he had met almost all of them last time.
Even if Jiang Nuanzhu really didn't know that friend, with Xu Heyi's personality, he would explain to her and say a few sweet words to coax her, instead of hanging up directly like he did tonight.
Unable to sleep, Jiang Nuanzhu went to the living room on the second floor to get some fresh air.
After she made money, she loved buying houses. Wherever there was a branch of Zhushang Dance Studio, there would almost always be one or two houses nearby.
Jiang Nuanzhu never stays in hotels when on business trips, always stays in her own house.
Wen Ying also came on the business trip with Jiang Nuanzhu this time.
I was thirsty in the middle of the night and went out to drink some water, when I saw a figure in a white dress sitting in the living room on the second floor.
Wen Ying subconsciously screamed, "Ghost!"
Jiang Nuanzhu was shocked, and the teacher who was sleeping in the other room was also awakened instantly and hurried out to see what was going on.
Jiang Nuanzhu gritted her teeth helplessly and said, "There's no ghost, it's me!"
Another teacher heard the noise and immediately closed the door and went back to sleep.
Wen Ying panted heavily, patting her chest and said, "Oh my god, weren't you supposed to video chat with our boss lady? Why are you not sleeping in the middle of the night and running here in a daze?"
Jiang Nuanzhu waved at her.
"It's a bit annoying."
Wen Ying's eyes lit up, and she immediately put the shock behind her. "What's wrong? Boss Jiang, if you have any worries or sorrows, you can tell me. I'm a tight-lipped person and will definitely keep it a secret for you!"
Jiang Nuanzhu: "...Everyone in the dance studio knows that you're a famous loudmouth, so why are you keeping your mouth shut?"
Wen Ying coughed twice: "Then...will you tell me or not?"
Jiang Nuanzhu went to the wine cabinet and took out a bottle of low-alcohol wine, poured himself a glass and savored it slowly.
Wen Ying stared at her actions with wide eyes. "Drinking to drown your sorrows in the middle of the night... this is unbelievable. Are there any emotional problems in your marriage with the boss lady?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Jiang Nuanzhu looked helpless.
She thought about it and expressed her doubts.
"This is the first time I've felt this way since I got married. I always feel like something is going to happen."
Wen Ying hesitated to speak.
Jiang Nuanzhu: “…Speak!”
Wen Ying swallowed and said, "You don't suspect that the boss lady has someone else outside, do you?"
Jiang Nuanzhu said calmly: "He won't!"
Jiang Nuanzhu still has this confidence.
Wen Ying rolled her eyes, "Then what are you worried about?"
Jiang Nuanzhu frowned slightly, "I'm afraid something might happen at home..."
"You also said that the boss lady always knows how to handle things properly. If it was really a big deal, she would definitely not hide it from you. Since she hid it from you, it means that the matter is not urgent and she can handle it completely."
Wen Ying spoke in a coherent manner, "Anyway, most of the things here have been dealt with. If you are really worried, just go back a day in advance to check."
"That's right..." Jiang Nuanzhu supported his chin and looked out the window with a faint gaze.
Wen Ying said complacently, "You are the one in charge and you are confused. I, as an outsider, need to give you some pointers."
Jiang Nuanzhu: "...Guess why I'm worried?"
Wen Ying hadn't noticed the danger yet: "Didn't you say you were worried about something happening at home..."
"I miss him."
A soft and gentle sentence floated into my ears with the summer breeze, very pleasant to the ear.
Wen Ying was stabbed hard.
Wen Ying: "...Sorry, I came to the wrong place."
Being forced to eat dog food late at night is simply inhumane!
Jiang Nuanzhu watched Wen Ying leave with a smile, and took a sip of the cup.
She didn't lie. One reason was that she was worried about something at home, and the other was that she missed Xu Heyi...
Jiang Nuanzhu hadn't seen Xu Heyi for a few days and missed him very much.
When I went to bed at night, I leaned to one side and ended up feeling empty. That emptiness spread from my body to my heart.
The whole place feels empty.
She picked up her phone and quietly sent a message to Xu Heyi.
【Xu Heyi, I miss you. 】
[Four days left, and then I'll go back.]
As for going back a day early, Jiang Nuanzhu didn't tell Xu Heyi, wanting to give him a surprise.
After drinking two glasses of wine, I finally felt a little sleepy.
Jiang Nuanzhu had an embarrassing dream at night. Xu Heyi in the dream was as bad as ever.
The first thing she did after getting up was to check her phone.
Xu Heyi did not reply to the message.
Jiang Nuanzhu frowned.
This is the first time such a situation has occurred.
She suppressed the nameless panic in her heart and sent another message to Xu Heyi.
【I dreamed of you last night, and you were still so bad in the dream. 】
After sending the message, Jiang Nuanzhu drove to the dance studio.
During the afternoon class, Jiang Nuanzhu was distracted several times and his eyes unconsciously glanced at his mobile phone.
This class is a double-teacher class, which means two teachers teach it together.
Jiang Nuanzhu is the main ingredient, with Wen Ying as the auxiliary ingredient.
Even someone as calm as Wen Ying noticed that something was wrong with Jiang Nuanzhu, so he took the time to ask, "What's wrong with you?"
Jiang Nuanzhu said subconsciously: "He hasn't replied to my message yet."
This has never happened before.
Wen Ying didn't think too much about it. "If you're really worried, just go back after class. It only takes four hours to go back and forth on the high-speed rail. You can adjust your classes tomorrow morning and come back later."
Jiang Nuanzhu's eyes lit up, "You're right, why didn't I think of it?"
Wen Ying boasted again, "Luckily I'm here."
With this idea in mind, Jiang Nuanzhu immediately calmed down, "Okay, let's get ready for class."
Wen Ying: "..."
After class, it was already six o'clock in the afternoon.
Jiang Nuanzhu went straight to the high-speed rail station and bought a ticket for 10 o'clock in the evening.
It was already twelve o'clock when we arrived in the capital.
