Chapter 896 Explaining Selfishness
Zhuo Yihang could not help but tremble as he hesitantly reached for his phone.Fu Jiuxiao suddenly grabbed Jiang Li’s hand and said in a hoarse voice, “I’m fine, I’m fine.”
Jiang Li looked at Fu Jiuxiao in surprise. Did Fu Jiuxiao want to hide it from her?
Fu Jiuxiao lazily burped and said in a muffled voice, “Benefits.”
All of this was purely for profit.
If it was not for this relationship, how could Fu Jiuxiao have anything to do with them?
Jiang Li chose to remain silent and did not insist on asking for more names. The car drove slowly forward.
As the car swayed, Fu Jiuxiao’s body slowly fell toward Jiang Li. He tried to hold on for a while, but the effect was not very good.
Jiang Li’s face was cold. She moved to the side and looked out of the car window.
Fu Jiuxiao smiled and leaned on Jiang Li’s shoulder. He fell asleep on the road.
They sent Zhuo Yihang back to the hotel before returning home.
Fu Jiuxiao slept peacefully the whole time. He showed no signs of waking up.
Jiang Li looked deeply into his eyes and reached out to touch his face.
”Are we there yet?” Fu Jiuxiao felt an itch on his face and opened his eyes instinctively. He held the hand that was reaching out in front of him and asked vaguely.
”Yes, get out of the car!” Jiang Li said coldly.
Fu Jiuxiao tried his best to open his eyes wide. When he got out of the car, he recalled what had happened just now. Suddenly, he realized what he had missed.
Jiang Li was going to touch his face, right?
Why did he wake up?
Fu Jiuxiao stood where he was and leaned against the car door. He let out a light sigh. When Jiang Li held his arm, he suddenly came back to his senses.
He was afraid of losing this chance, so he quickly grabbed Jiang Li’s hand and said seriously, “I arranged for someone to follow you in advance. When he found out that something was wrong with you and you were taken away, he immediately informed me before stopping the other party.”
”It’s not just that time. I… have always been by your side.”
Jiang Li looked at Fu Jiuxiao firmly. How could she not understand what he meant?
It turned out that Fu Jiuxiao already had her in his heart before, and he chose to protect her silently.
”Let’s go back. I’ll listen to your explanation.” Jiang Li turned her head, hiding the tears at the corner of her eyes, and said in a compromise.
She was compromising with herself.
She had put aside the incident at the hotel. She had seen how good Fu Jiuxiao was to her. She would never forget it.
Was it not the same for her?
Even if the hotel incident made her uncomfortable, she could not bear to make Fu Jiuxiao feel too uncomfortable.
’How about…’
’Let’s listen to Fu Jiuxiao’s explanation first?’
Fu Jiuxiao was delighted. He held Jiang Li’s hand tightly, and just as he was about to speak, he reached out to cover his stomach. This time, he was really uncomfortable.
When the servant heard their movements, she quickly came out and asked, “Sir, Madam, would you like to have dinner?”
”Prepare the hangover medicine first and send it to the room,” Jiang Li said to the servant.
Seeing this, the servant immediately nodded and went to find the medicine.
Jiang Li helped Fu Jiuxiao back to the room.
As soon as Fu Jiuxiao entered, he fell onto the bed. He was so lazy that he did not want to sit up straight. However, when Jiang Li stood beside him, he still sat up.
When Jiang Li handed him a warm towel, the maid took the hot water and medicine box and quietly left.
After taking the medicine, Fu Jiuxiao closed his eyes and leaned on the bed to rest, but he still frowned slightly. He held Jiang Li’s hand and said, “At that time, I thought that you only saw through the Jiang family’s true colors and wanted to use my power to solve the problem. When the Jiang family can’t hurt you anymore, you would just leave.”
”I didn’t want to use this matter to trap you, so I didn’t plan to tell you.”
”What happened after that?” Jiang Li asked in a deep voice.
They had such a good relationship after that, and Fu Jiuxiao did not plan to tell her, did he?
Fu Jiuxiao’s body felt much better. He sat up and gently hugged Jiang Li, saying with a wry smile, “How should I tell you? I’ve liked you for a long time. On the one hand, I hope that you can be happy, and on the other hand, I hope that you and Fu Yunze can break off the engagement, then can I secretly look for an opportunity.”
”It’s too ugly, isn’t it?”
The closer he was to Jiang Li, the more he could not say what he had thought in the beginning. He only hoped that it would never be revealed, and it would be firmly suppressed in his heart.
If it were not for Jiang Man’s stupid behavior, this would be a secret in the bottom of his heart forever.
Jiang Li felt Fu Jiuxiao’s contradiction and bitterness, but she also felt that it was ridiculous.
She raised her hand to hold Fu Jiuxiao’s face, and her heart was trembling. She felt that Fu Jiuxiao was uneasy because of his selfishness, but she was the same, right?
Did she choose Fu Jiuxiao because of love?
She also wanted to use Fu Jiuxiao’s hand to get rid of the annoying Jiang family.
”Let’s be frank in the future. Don’t hide anything anymore.” Jiang Li’s voice was so soft that Fu Jiuxiao couldn’t hear her clearly.
”If there’s a next time, I won’t let you off so easily.”
Fu Jiuxiao was stunned at first, and he immediately hugged Jiang Li tightly in his arms. He used almost all his strength as if he wanted to rub Jiang Li into his bones.
Jiang Li moaned in pain. She raised her hand to push Fu Jiuxiao away, but in the end, she hugged him gently.
The two of them did not speak for a long time.
