Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jiang Li was still begging Fu Jiuxiao not to stay up late and work overtime, or it would affect his body’s recovery.
When her hand went numb, she changed her hand to hold the phone. When she looked up, she realized that Fu Jiu’s expression did not look right.
Jiang Li was puzzled. Just as she was about to ask something, she realized that Fu Jiuxiao had hung up the video call!
Jiang Li could not believe her eyes. She wondered if Fu Jiuxiao had hung up by accident. Just as she was about to make another call…
Fu Jiuxiao made a voice call. Jiang Li was even more confused. Why did Fu Jiuxiao not want a voice call?
Fu Jiuxiao hung up the video call because he did not want Jiang Li to see him when he was angry. He also wanted himself to calm down.
However, Fu Jiuxiao felt that hanging up the video call was not good. It would be bad if Jiang Li misunderstood, so he made a voice call.
Even though Fu Jiuxiao tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart, he blamed Jiang Li for going to such a dangerous place and not letting him know.
Dapeng actually dared to hide it from him!
He took a deep breath and then returned Jiang Li’s call.
“h.e.l.lo, why did you hang up my video call just now? is the internet bad?”
“Yes…”
“Really?”
Jiang Li felt that something was wrong with Fu Jiuxiao. Fu Jiuxiao did not answer directly but asked Jiang Li instead.
“Where are you now?”
“A hotel.”
“Which hotel?”
“… Just an ordinary hotel.”
Jiang Li was inexplicably fl.u.s.tered. Why would Fu Jiuxiao suddenly ask this? Did he find out something? Did Dapeng tell him about it?
That was impossible. Dapeng promised her not to tell Fu Jiuxiao.
“Is it really an ordinary hotel?” Fu Jiuxiao’s voice was rarely cold
“Are you in Angel now?”
“What?”
It was not Jiang Li’s fault for not understanding. It was Dapeng’s fault for forgetting to tell Jiang Li that this ‘resort’ was called Angle when he introduced it.
“x.x.x Road, Angel Resort.”
Jiang Li was stunned.
Jiang Li took a deep breath. Fu Jiuxiao knew! He actually knew!
Jiang Li was a little fl.u.s.tered, and she was caught in the act. Jiang Li was thinking about how to quibble with Fu Jiuxiao.
“Aren’t you going to explain? Or are you thinking of a reason right now? Are you just making something up to fool me?”
Fu Jiuxiao had some understanding of Jiang Li. For some reason, Jiang Li was a little surprised by Fu Jiuxiao’s piercing words.
Fu Jiuxiao had never said such tough words to her before.
“Are you… Are you angry?”
Fu Jiuxiao remained silent.
Jiang Li understood. Fu Jiuxiao was really angry.
“How do you know?” Jiang Li rolled her eyes and suddenly thought of something. She looked at where she was standing.
There were several things there with a small angel logo on them.
‘Why didn’t I notice it just now?! How could a person like Fu Jiuxiao not have been to such a place in Sea City?’
Sensing the other party’s silence, Fu Jiuxiao knew that Jiang Li realized how he knew.
“If you don’t give me a suitable reason, I will send someone to pick you up right now.”
Not sending someone to pick Jiang Li up straight away without asking was already the best he could do!
Jiang Li held her phone and sighed. She told the truth.
“… That’s right. There’s a compet.i.tion here that can make a lot of money, so I just wanted to join in the fun.”
“Join in the fun? Heh.”
Fu Jiuxiao actually sneered at her! Jiang Li did not believe it, and Jiang Li felt wronged. Jiang Li suddenly had the illusion that Fu Jiuxiao did not love her anymore.
“Do you want to make a fortune by gambling there with the pocket money I gave you?”
Fu Jiuxiao pointed it out, and Jiang Li was embarra.s.sed.
