By the end, Jiang Chuning couldn't tell whether the sheets were wet by the water from the bathtub or something else...
She completely lost her strength and was carried into the bathroom to take a bath by Jiang Shanghan in a daze.
Jiang Chuning closed his eyes and was so tired that he didn't even want to lift his hands. He just leaned in his arms, enjoying the rare moment.
Jiang Shanghan whispered: "Are you sleepy?"
Jiang Chuning said "Hmm" and rubbed his chest: "A little."
"Go to sleep, I'll take you back later."
Hearing this, Jiang Chuning tilted his head and opened his eyes slightly: "I didn't go home last night. My father..."
Jiang Shanghan said: "He was in a meeting last night and it hasn't ended yet. It's not too late to go back now."
Jiang Chuning suddenly became more energetic. In other words, her father didn't even know that she didn't come home last night.
She didn't know where she got the strength. She grabbed the edge of the bathtub and tried to get up: "Then let's hurry up and try to get it before he goes back..."
Halfway through standing, Jiang Chuning's legs became weak and he fell back down again.
Jiang Shanghan caught her, his eyebrows twitched without a trace, his breathing stagnated slightly, and he spoke after a while: "Don't worry, he will be here at least noon."
Jiang Chuning's heart dropped again. After relaxing his nerves, he felt sleepy again.
She yawned and leaned into his arms again.
It seemed that as long as she was by his side, he could always arrange and handle everything for her, and she didn't have to worry about anything.
Jiang Shanghan put his arm around her waist and kissed her ear gently.
…
Jiang Chuning slept very soundly, and when she woke up, she was already lying in her room.
As soon as she opened her eyes, before her consciousness began to return, she felt the pain all over her body.
It hurts more than the last time she played tennis, and her throat is dry.
Jiang Chuning struggled to lift the quilt and climbed up, and found a glass of water next to the bedside table. She picked it up and drank it in one gulp, then she felt a little better.
After leaning against the bed and relaxing for a while, Jiang Chuning suddenly remembered something, picked up the phone next to the water glass and looked at the time, three o'clock in the afternoon.
She can really sleep.
Jiang Chuning looked at her phone and found that Xie Yinyin had sent her a message. After she replied, she put down her phone and slowly got out of bed to wash up, then changed her clothes and left the room.
When she reached the first floor, she greeted the servant beside her: "Is my father back?"
The servant said: "Master went back to the study at noon to get something. Seeing that the lady was still sleeping, he didn't call you and left again."
Jiang Chuning opened his mouth. He originally wanted to ask something, but felt that he was asking for help.
Since she was sleeping in her room when her father came back, there should be no problem.
If he knew that she stayed away last night, his skull would be broken.
Jiang Chuning nodded sleepily: "By the way, what is my dad busy with? I heard...I heard that he was in a meeting. What happened?"
The servant said: "I don't know the specific reason. I just saw news yesterday afternoon that it seemed that the government had received a call. I guess the master has been busy because of this matter."
Jiang Chuning was stunned, phone number?
She took out her mobile phone and searched the Internet and found that nothing major happened in Jiangzhou in the past two days.
It was not like her father had never come home only once every two or three days when he was busy with work, but for some reason, Jiang Chuning always felt panicked this time.
Tomorrow is her father's birthday, so... nothing will happen.
At this time, Jiang Chuning's cell phone rang. It was the handicraft store notifying her that she could pick up the goods.
Jiang Chuning said: "Okay, I'll be right over."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Chuning sent another message to Xie Yinyin, asking her to join him, and then quickly left the door.
When they arrived at the entrance of the shopping mall, the two met and went directly to the handicraft shop.
The moment she got the goods, Jiang Chuning's uneasy heart was relieved. These two little people were really lifelike. They were simply miniature versions of her and her father. They were adorable inside and out.
.
The staff of the handicraft store said: "Ms. Jiang, since our store has a large number of orders, you have ordered another set of handmade dolls. It may take a week."
Jiang Chuning nodded, put the things in his hand into the box and put them away: "Then I will give you an address, and you can send it directly there when the time comes."
In a week, she will probably be in Switzerland.
"OK."
After leaving the handicraft shop, Jiang Chuning kept holding the gift box in her arms and couldn't put it down.
Xie Yinyin said from the side: "Your father will definitely like this very much."
After hearing this, Jiang Chuning felt much better.
While sitting in a nearby cold drink shop having a drink, Xie Yinyin saw that Jiang Chuning had been looking at her phone, so she asked, "Ningning, what's wrong?"
Jiang Chuning raised his head: "Nothing, I just wanted to see if there was any news..."
"news?"
Jiang Chuning breathed out: "My dad has been in meetings since yesterday. I don't know if something happened."
Xie Yinyin consoled her: "It's okay. Your father is busy with various things every day. I guess this matter will be more troublesome. I'll just deal with it."
And if something big happened, it would have been on the news long ago."
Jiang Chuning stirred Yang Meibing in front of him and nodded gently: "We'll find out when he comes back in the evening."
Xie Yinyin took a sip of the drink in front of her, then pointed to her collarbone: "Are you bitten here?"
Jiang Chuning was stunned for a moment. After he came to his senses, he quickly raised his hands to cover his face and his face turned red instantly.
Xie Yinyin's original intention was whether she had been bitten by a mosquito. It can be seen from her reaction that she immediately had an idea, and her eyes showed an incredible light: "Could you be..."
Jiang Chuning stuffed a piece of cake into her mouth without protesting, even though her ears were so red that they could bleed.
Xie Yinyin understood.
She swallowed the cake and then asked: "No, you are moving too fast. How long have you known each other?"
Jiang Chuning said: "It's been a long time... a long time."
"long time?
Childhood sweetheart?
Have I seen it?"
"Not... childhood sweethearts, but..." Jiang Chuning didn't know what to say, so he whispered, "I've seen it before."
Xie Yinyin suddenly became more curious, and she guessed everything she knew and knew about Jiang Chuning's friends, but they were all wrong.
She really couldn't remember who else was there, so she gave up this link and asked further: "What about you?"
Jiang Chuning knew what the first "that" meant, but she didn't understand the last "that".
Xie Yinyin made an anxious "tsk" sound, stood up and stood next to her, and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Wear a condom."
Jiang Chuning: "..."
After a long while, she held back two words: "No."
