Chapter 887: Chapter 887: 887 Man, Your Name is Stubborn

Jiang Xiaoyan’s eyes reddened the moment she saw Jiang Xu, and she burst into tears on the spot.

She then ran over to him without care.

The guards on the border line were all used to it by now.

All of Jiang Xiaoyan’s companions were her close confidants, naturally aware that her one weakness was Jiang Xu.

With so many people around, Jiang Xu found it hard to push Jiang Xiaoyan away, as it would embarrass her and undermine her dignity.

So he let her hug him.

“What is this thing? It’s making me very uncomfortable,” Jiang Xu frowned.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaoyan let go of Jiang Xu.

She patted the pocket on her pants, “Weapons, I brought two with me.”

Jiang Xu nodded.

Having weapons on himself over here would make him feel safer.

“Let’s talk in the car.”

Once in the car, Jiang Xiaoyan started chattering, “Why did you just come over out of the blue, without telling me in advance? You caught me completely off-guard.”

“I get it, you definitely wanted to surprise me, right?”

“Hah, man, your name should be Stubborn,” she teased.

“…” Jiang Xu’s mouth twitched, but eventually, he did not shatter Jiang Xiaoyan’s pleasant illusions, “You’re right.”

Jiang Xiaoyan knew Jiang Xu was just humoring her.

But she didn’t mind.

Her stay here felt like she had been exiled to Lingnan, incredibly tough.

Jiang Xu’s appearance was like giving her a bowl of strong chicken soup, immediately revitalizing her.

After her excitement had subsided, Jiang Xu started to discuss more serious matters with her.

He wanted to ask about the development state of Jiang Country now.

“Don’t want to talk about it,” Jiang Xiaoyan pouted, “We finally meet, and you want to talk about work? You could make better use of your mouth by kissing me!”

The female driver in the front immediately perked up her ears, stealthily glancing at the rearview mirror.

Is this gossip I’m getting for free?

Would Miss ask me to leave the car midway?

And then would the two of them start testing the car’s shock absorbers to see if they’re up to snuff?

By now, the female driver’s mind was filled with numerous mosaic-censored images.

No, no, no more thinking.

Otherwise, she’d burst out laughing.

Jiang Xu, looking very frustrated, “Stop saying such provocative things, I’m hungry. Let’s go to your place and get something to eat first.”

Jiang Xiaoyan, “0j8k.”

Jiang Xu, “Don’t swear; that’s no language for a young lady.”

Jiang Xiaoyan immediately straightened up, cheekily mimicking a cutesy voice, “Got it, giegei, whine whine.”

Jiang Xu, “Get lost.”

The female driver was inwardly shocked but also somewhat relieved.

Perhaps it was only in front of Jiang Xu that the Miss revealed her truest self.

Ah, she hoped they could really make it work and keep going.

But the driver knew Jiang Xu was already a married man, leaving her unsure whether Miss would end up happy.

With a long sigh in her heart, the driver thought,

Ah, I hope Miss will have a good future.

“Is this where you live?”

After arriving at Jiang Xiaoyan’s place, Jiang Xu was flabbergasted.

It was just a tin shack.

Inside, besides a bed and a bedside table, there was nothing else.

The weather was also scorchingly hot here, at least forty-five degrees.

In the tin shack, there was just a small electric fan.

Is this a place for people to live?

“Yeah,” Jiang Xiaoyan smiled, her smile tinged with bitterness, “Starting a business is tough, no choice.”

Jiang Xu, “No wonder you’ve gotten darker.”

Jiang Xiaoyan with a murderous look, “Jiang Xu, are you asking for death?!”

Jiang Xu laughed, “That’s more like it, the real you. That docile demeanor earlier made me wonder if someone else had taken over your body.”

Jiang Xiaoyan, glaring with big, Kardashian-like eyes in a near-death-threatening manner.

Don’t mention it, although Jiang Xiaoyan was much tanner, and her figure had slimmed down, she seemed more spirited.

She gave off a feeling of having grown more tenacious.

“Do you want to come in and sit?” Jiang Xiaoyan said helplessly.

Jiang Xu really didn’t have any flair for romance.

Or you could say, all his romantic energy was given to An Nuonuo.

Other women could hardly get a tiny bit from him.

“Go to your place?” Jiang Xu was also helpless, “How can we sit here?”

Jiang Xiaoyan: “This is my place.”

Jiang Xu: “Do you really think I’m that foolish? You wouldn’t put yourself through living in such a place.”

This girl was merely trying to play the sympathy card in front of Jiang Xu.

He understood clearly.

“Heehee, you’re really smart. I was just joking with you a moment ago.” Jiang Xiaoyan changed her expression in a split second.@@novelbin@@

Jiang Xu: “Heehee my ass, let’s go, I’m really hungry.”

Jiang Xiaoyan: “Oh~”

Jiang Xiaoyan’s residence was very close to the construction site where Jiang Country’s office was located.

It was a building with a garden-style architecture.

Just as Jiang Xu had expected.

Jiang Xiaoyan would mistreat anyone but herself.

She lived in a very luxurious, high-end suite.

She had moved many things from home over here.

Huge floor-to-ceiling windows, temperature-controlled big bathtubs, super beds, and so on.

“Just sit for a bit.” As soon as she stepped inside, Jiang Xiaoyan took off her shoes.

Barefoot on the floor, she said, “I’ll go cook for you. What would you like to eat?”

Jiang Xu had barely touched the sofa.

When he heard Jiang Xiaoyan speak, he sprang up instantly.

And rushed toward the kitchen at the speed of a 100-meter dash: “Don’t cook, I’ll do it, please!”

Some long-buried memories were stirred, and Jiang Xu’s eyes filled with terror.

If he ate what Jiang Xiaoyan cooked, he was certain to end up in the hospital.

And with the low medical standards here, he didn’t fancy being rushed off urgently.

“What’s with that look?” Jiang Xiaoyan pouted unhappily: “I’ve greatly improved my cooking skills recently, okay? I’m not the old Jiang Xiaoyan anymore.”

“No one who’s eaten my cooking has ever complained.”

“Is it possible…” Jiang Xu spoke eerily, “that those people, after eating, didn’t have the chance to complain?”

Jiang Xiaoyan: “…”

In the end, Jiang Xu still didn’t let Jiang Xiaoyan into the kitchen.

He checked the fridge; there were quite a lot of fresh ingredients.

For just the two of them, there was no need to be too extravagant.

A dish of stir-fried eggs with chives.

A dish of fried river shrimp.

A dish of fried chicken wings.

An eggplant stew.

And a soup of abalone would do.

The abalones in Jiang Xiaoyan’s fridge were the expensive kind.

They were plump, brightly colored, and juicy, clearly top-notch.

Jiang Xiaoyan leaned against the kitchen doorway, watching Jiang Xu who was earnestly cooking.

Her eyes exhibited a mesmerized expression.

This damn man, his charm truly knew no bounds.

She really wanted…

She really wanted to pounce on him right now.

To fiercely bite the flesh off his body.

To swallow his muscles, fascia, and viscera bit by bit into her stomach.

That way… she could become one with him and never be apart again.

Lost in thought, Jiang Xiaoyan’s gem-like eyes gradually became shrouded with a shade of blood.
