Chapter 663: Chapter 663 was well said; next time, don’t mention it again.
As expected, Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo both got up very late the next day.
“It’s all your fault,” An Nuonuo grumbled with pursed lips.
She couldn’t help blushing at the thought of what happened last night.
An Nuonuo didn’t quite understand, though.
Logically speaking, the two of them had been together for so long that they could be considered ‘an old married couple.’
But to Jiang Xu, it seemed as if he still harbored the same deep affection for her as he did the first time they met.
Although she was a bit bewildered, An Nuonuo was naturally happier.
Who wouldn’t want their body to always fascinate the person they love?
After Jiang Xu finished washing up, he checked today’s company affairs.
There were no major issues at the company today, so it wasn’t busy.
He then took An Nuonuo to school with him.
His visits to school were becoming less frequent.
An Nuonuo, on the other hand, would come whenever she had free time.
Autumn arrived unnoticed.
The sweet osmanthus trees in the school were all in bloom.
The air was filled with the refreshing fragrance of sweet osmanthus.
Jiang Xu spread his arms wide open, feeling relaxed for a rare moment.
It was better being at school.
Within the campus, one could see many students reading in the flower beds or on the lawns.
There were also pairs of couples walking hand in hand without a care in the world.
Seeing them, Jiang Xu felt as if he was looking at himself and An Nuonuo back when they first started college.
They were probably similar.
“Ah, how come you two are here?” Bai Xiaoya emerged from a small path on the left, quite surprised to see them.
Jiang Xu replied grumpily, “I’m still a student, isn’t it normal for me to be here?”
“Pfft,” Bai Xiaoya snorted, “Everyone knows you hardly show up for even a few times a semester.”
An Nuonuo asked, “Sister Xiaoya, why are you at school too?”
Bai Xiaoya had also been very busy recently.
‘Blueprint’ was doing better and better, and the business required her attention more and more.
“I don’t want to come either,” Bai Xiaoya tousled her hair, “I’ve missed too many classes; at this rate, graduating will be tough.”
A thought struck Jiang Xu, “Speaking of which, Sister Xiaoya, you’re graduating next year, right?”
“Yeah,” Bai Xiaoya said with watery eyes, “In the blink of an eye, I’ve become an old woman.”
Jiang Xu said, “It’s okay, you’re not that old.”
Bai Xiaoya glared at Jiang Xu, “Nice words, just don’t say them again next time.”
An Nuonuo covered her mouth and snickered on the side.
Bai Xiaoya wasn’t pleased and went to tickle her armpit, “That’ll teach you to laugh.”
“Ah, I’m wrong, Sister Xiaoya, stop it, it tickles…”
Jiang Xu watched with a smile as the two girls played around.
It was a delightful sight.
In the morning, Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo attended two classes in the classroom.
They ate lunch in the cafeteria.
After eating, the pair returned to Jiang Xu’s private dormitory.
It had been a long time since he’d been there, and he felt quite nostalgic.
Jiang Xu was wrapping his arms around An Nuonuo’s fragrant body, ready to take a nap,
when he suddenly received a phone call from Liu Dahai.
After picking up the phone, an alarming light burst forth from his eyes.
An Nuonuo was startled, “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing,” Jiang Xu hung up the phone and stroked An Nuonuo’s hair, “I need to step out for a bit.”
An Nuonuo clutched Jiang Xu’s sleeve, “Just remember to put your safety first, I can’t be without you.”
Since Jiang Xu was unwilling to tell her what he was going to do, An Nuonuo didn’t ask.
But a word of caution was certainly necessary.
“Don’t worry, I won’t do anything dangerous to myself.
Just wait for me here, we haven’t… in the dorm for a long time,”
“Stop it~”
Night came.
The heavens were unkind tonight, pouring down heavy rain.
A black sedan was parked outside a high-end residential area.
In the driver’s seat, a pair of icy eyes watched intently over the residential complex.
After waiting a while, the car moved forward.
Once the car was parked, a man wearing a mask, sunglasses, and a hat emerged, carrying a large black bag in his hand.
He was dressed in a yellow vest.
Yes, the uniform of Group美.
He moved quickly, entered the elevator, took out an electronic card from his pocket, and swiped it.
The elevator soared straight to the twenty-second floor.
“Ding!”
The elevator doors opened, and the man stepped out.
A pair of eyes hidden behind the sunglasses were filled with cold malevolence.
He stood in front of a door and pressed the doorbell.
Chu Youwei had just finished showering when she heard the doorbell.
It felt a bit strange.
Who could it be at this hour?
She walked to the door and peered through the peephole.
A delivery man?
Delivery services were starting to become popular.
You could see blue and yellow vests everywhere in the streets and alleys.
Chu Youwei didn’t open the door but instead shouted through it, “You’ve got the wrong place, I didn’t order delivery.”
The man’s voice was hoarse, “Excuse me, is this Miss Chu Youwei Chu’s residence?”
“It’s me.”
“Mr. Jiang Xu asked me to deliver something to you. Please open the door to receive it.”
“Jiang Xu?” Chu Youwei was puzzled.
Why would Jiang Xu send her food?
Her hand was on the doorknob, her subconscious almost prompting her to open it.
But suddenly, something occurred to her, and she quickly withdrew her hand.
That’s not right!
Jiang Xu would never send her something out of the blue, late at night.
Moreover, even if he really had something to send, he would have called her beforehand.
And another point, the most important one.
The apartment she lived in was a single-unit elevator setup; each floor could only be accessed by residents with a key card.
Under normal circumstances, this delivery man had no way of standing at her doorstep.
In an instant, Chu Youwei felt a chill run up her spine from the soles of her feet.
She instinctively stepped back, her voice trembling, “Who are you?”
The man’s voice remained low, “I’m just a delivery person. Don’t be afraid, Miss Chu. Just open the door and sign for it, and I’ll be on my way immediately.”
“Impossible.” Chu Youwei shook her head, took out her phone, and steadied the person outside, “Outsiders can’t come up to my place. Who are you, really?”
“Heh, very clever. It seems I miscalculated,” the man said as he took off his hat, glasses, and mask.
He revealed a face that sent shivers down the spine.
Who else could it be but Xiao Jibo?
His facial wounds hadn’t healed, making him look incredibly terrifying.
Like a ghoul that had crawled out of hell.
To her horror, Chu Youwei discovered that her phone had no signal.
She couldn’t make calls or access the internet.
There was a landline in her house, she ran to it only to find in despair that it too was useless.
The phone line had been cut.
“Bang!”
“Bang!”
Banging sounds echoed from outside.
Although the door to the apartment was made of aluminum alloy.
Those penetrating bangs still made Chu Youwei turn pale, nearly collapsing to the ground in fear.
She didn’t want to sit there and do nothing.
She quickly braced tables and chairs against the door.
But this gave her little, if any, sense of security.
“Heh heh, you can’t escape,” Xiao Jibo said in his sinister voice, “The pain that Jiang Xu inflicted on me, I will take it back from you a thousand-fold!”
