Chapter 178 Explanation



He coughed lightly, his voice hoarse: "Let's go home."

Hearing those two words, Jiang Yilai felt a strange pang of sadness in her heart.

She sat up, and as soon as her feet touched the ground, her inner thighs throbbed with pain; she almost fell over.

Fu Nanxiao stretched out his long arm, grabbed her waist with his large hand, and pulled her back.

A soft laugh came from above.

Jiang Yilai's face flushed, and she didn't dare to lift her head.

Fu Nanxiao held her with one arm and was able to answer a phone call with the other, telling Jin Zisong and the others to go back first.

Once in the car, Jiang Yilai couldn't help but ask about what had just happened: "Fu Nanxiao, what happened to you just now?"

Fu Nanxiao was silent for two seconds before saying calmly, "It's nothing."

He didn't want to say more.

The atmosphere inside the car was somewhat tense.

Jiang Yilai bit her lip, stubbornly pressing, "Don't you think you deserve an explanation? If I hadn't suddenly appeared today, would you and Gu Nianqiang have already...?"

Just thinking about it makes her heart ache.

Fu Nanxiao's gaze fell on her face, and he said in a low voice, "No."

Jiang Yilai looked at him: "So what exactly happened? You were set up? Who was it? Was it Gu..."

"Jiang Yilai".

Fu Nanxiao frowned and emphasized, "Don't be unreasonable."

Jiang Yilai's heart felt like it was being crushed by a huge rock, plummeting straight down.

Is it true that she's just being unreasonable whenever Gu Nianqiang is involved?

If that's the case, why push Gu Nianqiang out in the first place?

Jiang Yilai was extremely upset. She leaned back in her chair, closed her eyes, and stopped talking.

The carriage fell silent.

Fu Nanxiao's deep gaze fell on Jiang Yilai's face.

He already had traces of the drug in his body, and it was only through his strong self-control that he managed to suppress that reckless urge.

Seeing her throw a tantrum now only makes me more irritable.

Being schemed against is not something to be proud of, and he didn't want to explain further.

Furthermore, he felt guilty towards Gu Nianqiang for the kidnapping he had caused.

Although he is aloof, he is not a cold-blooded animal.

It's impossible to remain unmoved when facing a woman who has almost ruined his life because of him.

So even if Gu Nianqiang schemes against him, he can tolerate it, but he will not condone it.

Even if Jiang Yilai doesn't show up today, he won't let Gu Nianqiang succeed.

Because the only person who could make him so addicted to the taste, without any aversion when touching her, was Jiang Yilai.

Thinking of this, the coldness in Fu Nanxiao's eyes softened slightly.

He suddenly spoke in a low voice: "Your phone."

Jiang Yilai opened her eyes and saw Fu Nanxiao holding her phone and handing it to her.

She was taken aback, wondering how her phone ended up with him.

But she didn't want to ask.

He took the phone sullenly.

Fu Nanxiao then spoke up: "Found it in the lounge, you've been there?"

Jiang Yilai gave a faint "hmm".

Fu Nanxiao asked again, "Why did you go there?"

Jiang Yilai gave him a strange look.

Why did she feel like... he was just making small talk?

However, mentioning this made Jiang Yilai even more depressed.

"Gu Qihang is looking for me."

"Why?"

"What else could it be? To help his precious sister get rid of her love rival and successfully take her place!" Jiang Yilai sneered.

Fu Nanxiao frowned, his face turning somewhat cold.

Jiang Yilai glanced at him furtively, biting her lip without saying a word.

Out of habit, she began to fear that Fu Nanxiao would get angry.

But Fu Nanxiao's tone was very gentle when he spoke: "I will handle it."

"What should we do?" Jiang Yilai finally couldn't hold back her grievances, and her eyes reddened.
