Chapter 252: Xiangsi Only Has Eyes for Him
"Xiangsi!"
Unable to catch her, Fu Hanjiang immediately got out of the car and chased after her.
What was wrong with her? Where was she going?
Soon, he understood.
Across the street, Zhong Pei opened the car door with a smile, holding the car roof, waiting for the girl beside him to get in. The girl lowered her head slightly, looking shy, and bent over to get into the car.
Then, Zhong Pei closed the car door and got into the driver's seat. The car started moving...
"Zhong Pei!!"
Seeing this, Sheng Xiangsi quickened her pace and shouted loudly, hoping he could hear her.
However, the distance was too great for Zhong Pei to hear, and the car crossed the intersection.
"Zhong Pei!"
Sheng Xiangsi stepped forward.
Honk! Honk!
An ear-piercing horn sounded nearby. Sheng Xiangsi froze, unable to react. Her waist was grabbed, and she was lifted into the air, pushed swiftly to the side of the road.
It was too fast and too sudden. Under the force of inertia and gravity, Sheng Xiangsi lost her balance and fell to the ground.
"Do you want to die? Don't drag others down with you!"
"Showing affection in the middle of the road? Go home if you want to do that!"
"Are you crazy? Bad luck!"
Around her, the drivers who had honked were cursing.
In front of her was Fu Hanjiang's angry face.
Sheng Xiangsi had fallen, but she didn't feel any pain because Fu Hanjiang had cushioned her fall, protecting her entirely.
"Do you have a death wish?"
Fu Hanjiang scolded her, his voice filled with anger. He was furious, jealous, and scared all at once. Various emotions intertwined.
"Seeing Zhong Pei makes you this agitated?"
"..."
Sheng Xiangsi opened her mouth, got off him, and tried to help him up. "Are you okay? Are you hurt?"
He had just been discharged from the hospital; she didn't want him to get hurt again because of her.
Fu Hanjiang didn't respond, just stared at her, his eyes like daggers. "Tell me, why were you chasing Zhong Pei? Hmm?"
Sheng Xiangsi bit her lip and said nothing.
Fu Hanjiang grabbed her chin, sneering through gritted teeth, "What, seeing him with another woman made you upset? Does it hurt? Do you want to snatch him back?"
"..."
Sheng Xiangsi remained silent, calming her breath. "If I said I didn't think that, would you believe me?"
"Hmph!"
Fu Hanjiang laughed coldly, not answering her question. "Then tell me, why did you chase Zhong Pei? You nearly got yourself killed for it!"
She had almost been hit by a car just now! If he hadn't arrived in time, would she still be standing here arguing with him?
"I'm sorry..."
Sheng Xiangsi looked at him, acknowledging her mistake and his timely intervention. "Thank you."
Fu Hanjiang's breath hitched. Sorry? Thank you?
Was this the kind of conversation a couple should have?
Sheng Xiangsi's eyes moved to his hand... it seemed to be bleeding?
Did he get hurt when they fell?
"Let me see your hand..."
"Don't touch me!"
Fu Hanjiang pulled his arm back, his voice icy. "You only have eyes for Zhong Pei. Whether I'm dead or hurt, does it matter to you?"
Turning abruptly, he got into the car. Chen Shu had already driven it over.
Sheng Xiangsi frowned and followed him into the car.
The car started, and the silence in the cabin was suffocating.
Sheng Xiangsi wanted to check his hand, but Fu Hanjiang wouldn't look at her, leaning back with his eyes closed, as if shutting her out.
Soon, they arrived at the dance troupe.
Chen Zhong stopped the car at the entrance.
Sheng Xiangsi took a deep breath. "Fu Hanjiang..."
"Get out." Fu Hanjiang cut her off, refusing to engage.
With no other choice, Sheng Xiangsi got out of the car. As she closed the door, she sincerely said, "I'm sorry, I apologize. I'm sorry."
The door closed, and the car drove away.
Fu Hanjiang moved his hand, looking at her through the rearview mirror, and chuckled bitterly.
Sorry?
How ironic. His girlfriend was apologizing to him repeatedly because of her ex-boyfriend.
He suddenly realized that he wasn't important to her at all.
Was Zhong Pei that great?
As soon as he appeared, Xiangsi's eyes were only for him!
...
In the evening, Fu Hanjiang checked his phone. It was clean—no missed calls, no unread messages.
Xiangsi hadn't contacted him all day!
Feeling a surge of frustration, he called someone from his contacts.
On the other end was Qin Yanzhi. "Second Master? How come you have time today?"
"Less nonsense. Where are you guys tonight? Got it."
He hung up and grabbed his car keys, leaving the CEO's office. As for Xiangsi—she didn't need him.
She was probably happier without him around.
...
Sheng Xiangsi had been standing at the entrance for 20 minutes, but Fu Hanjiang still hadn't arrived.
She wondered if he wasn't coming.
It was possible; he had been angry when they parted in the morning. But if he wasn't coming, he could at least inform her, right?
Just leave her waiting like this?
She took out her phone and called him.
But the call was automatically disconnected. He didn't answer.
Putting her phone away, Sheng Xiangsi decided to head back to Hexuyuan. Recently, she had spent too little time with Junjun. She had only stayed for a short while at noon today.
Thinking this, she walked towards the bus stop.
But after a few steps, she thought better of it.
Fu Er Ye had a temper, but she couldn't afford to provoke him. If she upset him, what would happen to her Junjun?
Taking a deep breath, then another.
Calming herself, Sheng Xiangsi sent him a text.
[Didn't see you. Heading back to Silver Beach myself.]
Then she took the bus to Silver Beach.
In the evening.
Sheng Xiangsi took a shower and lay on the bed, checking her phone. Fu Hanjiang hadn't replied.
Such a big temper for a grown man.
Drying her hair, she went downstairs.
Pouring a glass of water, Sheng Xiangsi couldn't help but think about what she saw earlier. Was it really Qi Yunjia she saw with Zhong Pei?
But she couldn't be sure. She had only seen Qi Yunjia once.
She had wanted a closer look, so she chased after them...
Should she call Zhong Pei and ask?
But on what grounds? How should she ask?
Feeling conflicted, she couldn't make a decision.
Suddenly, her vision darkened, her head spun, and her heart started racing.
A side effect of the medication!
Sheng Xiangsi closed her eyes, hoping it would pass...
But this time, it lasted longer and got worse.
What to do?
Feeling unbearably unwell, she found Fu Hanjiang's number in her contacts and called him.
However, after a few rings, the call was disconnected. He didn't answer.
Overwhelmed by dizziness and palpitations, Sheng Xiangsi's legs gave out, and she fainted...
On the other end, Fu Hanjiang returned from the bathroom and saw the missed call from Sheng Xiangsi, along with her text. He smirked.
Back at Silver Beach? She knew to call him?
Qin Yanzhi, sitting nearby, noticed. "She's already made the first move. Take the step down and go back."
"Go back?" Fu Hanjiang pocketed his phone. "Why should I? Am I so easily manipulated?"
