Chapter 154: I’ll Miss You Too

Page 1 of 3

The message had been sent to her by Li Lan.

“I saw it from a fan of Ji Chuan’s. When I took a look, I realized that this school is the same elementary school Xiao Nan and Xuanxuan attend. This is going to be troublesome. There’ll be three celebrity children in one elementary school, and that child’s mother is such a restless woman. I’m worried that Xiao Nan and Xuanxuan might be affected.”

Jiang Sui would have been lying if she said she was not angry.

She had guarded against every possibility, specifically to prevent Ji Chuan and Xuanxuan from having any chance to be alone together.

She was afraid that, by some mishap, the story might veer back toward the plot of the original script.

And yet, in the end, the two of them had still been put in the same school.

Watching Xuanxuan excitedly preview her elementary school lessons, Jiang Sui furrowed her brows.

There was no way Xuanxuan would fall for Ji Chuan either. She had raised the child herself; how could her resolve be shaken so easily?

Truthfully, Jiang Sui did not harbor much hostility toward Ji Chuan for the time being. After all, he was still only a child.

His current behavior was mainly the result of his upbringing, which had caused him to become selfish, self-centered, arrogant, and ill-mannered.

After replying to Li Lan, she walked over to Xuanxuan.

“Mommy Jiang Sui.” The moment Xuanxuan saw her approaching, she immediately raised her head.

Jiang Sui stroked her hair and smiled. “Remember to take a break after you finish reading. Starting tomorrow, Mommy Jiang Sui will be joining the production to film, so I won’t be able to take you to school. At school, you must listen obediently to your teachers. If anything happens, remember to find Daddy Lu Ye, all right?”

Xuanxuan nodded.

“Mommy Jiang Sui, don’t worry. I remember everything you’ve told me. But don’t film for too long, okay? I’ll miss you.” As she spoke, Xuanxuan’s lips began to pout.

Jiang Sui smiled faintly. “All right.”

Just as she finished speaking, Jiang Sui looked up and happened to see Lu Ye standing upstairs.

His black silk loungewear made him look almost like an emperor.

He gazed at her deeply. Their eyes met; although they were standing right before each other, it was as if their points of contact had crossed through different times and spaces.

Thus, when Jiang Sui pushed open the door that night and was preparing to enter the room to rest, a powerful masculine presence suddenly swept over her from behind.

Those arms, like bands of iron, locked around her waist and drew her into his embrace.

But he did not dare use too much force. Although he held her around the waist and pressed against her back, his movements remained gentle and tender.

Jiang Sui said coolly, “Let me go, or I’m going to hit you.”

“Wife…” His voice was low, lingering, and suggestively intimate.

Jiang Sui: “…”

Stop saying that! If he kept calling her that, she would… She would call him the same thing in return!

“You said all that to Xuanxuan. Why didn’t you say it to me?” His deep voice carried a hint of grievance.

Jiang Sui: “Say what?”

Lu Ye did not answer. Instead, he muttered, “I’ll miss you too.”

Jiang Sui fell silent.

Was Lu Ye starting to act out of character?

Why was he becoming less and less restrained?

What had happened to that reserved, refined gentlemanly persona he had shown her at the beginning?

“Big brother, I’m only joining the production for a few days. My scenes don’t even add up to much. Why are you acting as if we’re about to be separated forever?” Jiang Sui truly could not hold back any longer.

Lu Ye seemed to ignore her words completely and instead asked in a muffled voice, “When you come back, can we sleep in the same room?”

“No,” Jiang Sui replied decisively.

Besides, wouldn’t her little paper figurine be discovered much more easily that way?

Lu Ye: “The sofa is so cold…”

Jiang Sui: “Turn on the air conditioner.”

Lu Ye: “The air conditioner is broken…”

Jiang Sui: “…”

The house had burned down, and the air conditioner had broken too?

She wriggled free from Lu Ye’s arms and looked at him with a solemn expression.

She raised her hand and gently patted his face.

After two pats, Jiang Sui suddenly decided that it felt rather nice.

So she patted him twice more.

Lu Ye: “…”

“Be good. Falling in love is not advisable; romance will only become a stumbling block in your path. With no woman in your heart, your sword will naturally become divine! You are the most badass man in the entire world!”

While Jiang Sui was speaking, she failed to notice that the distance between them had become extremely close, their bodies almost pressed together.

She had to tilt her head up to speak to Lu Ye, and therefore did not notice.

It was only when she sensed that Lu Ran’s gaze upon her was growing increasingly strange—and that something was pressing uncomfortably against her—that she finally realized what was happening.

She even said with remarkable composure, “You’re poking me.”

Lu Ye’s gaze was deep, like a pool of unfathomable water. The corner of his lips twitched slightly, and only then did he take half a step back.

Jiang Sui also stepped back, then immediately shut and locked the door.

She did it all in one smooth motion.
