Chapter 2164: Chapter 2166: Jiang Nuan vs. Fu Yi

Inviting someone to dinner is not like interrogating them; you can’t forcibly drag them back.

Miss Susan is unwilling to come; what can she do about it?

Fu Yi’s eyes were deep and expansive; his sharp, handsome face gradually darkened. He took off the glasses from his nose, pressed his thin lips together, and said, "I understand. You can leave now."

The Filipino maid had been with him for a while. Seeing him sitting quietly on the sofa with a blanket over his legs, not bothering to eat, she felt a bit at a loss and, as if inexplicably prompted, remarked, "Sir, I saw Miss Susan looked like she had been crying. Could it be she had an argument with her boyfriend?"

If they quarreled, perhaps sir has a chance to take advantage of the situation.

Even though she’s from Hua Country, she grew up abroad, where people are more open-minded, valuing freedom in feelings, pursuing what they like without too many twists and turns. Jiang Nuan having a boyfriend doesn’t conflict with Fu Yi pursuing Jiang Nuan in her eyes.

"She cried?" Fu Yi’s eyebrows knit fiercely together.

When he followed her in the afternoon, wasn’t she fine? Why did she go back and cry?

The day before yesterday too, she had stood in the hallway and cried.

What exactly is she doing?

Is that man treating her poorly?

Why does he always make her cry?

The Filipino maid nodded vigorously, "Yes, she cried. Miss Susan’s eyes were all red. When she opened the door for me, she wasn’t even wearing shoes and walked barefoot. She looked like she was in a bad mood."

"..." Fu Yi’s hands clenched tightly, his expression becoming even more obscure.

What exactly is she doing!

If she wants him to let go and pursue a new life, she shouldn’t make his heart ache.

How can he let go peacefully like this?

The Filipino maid said a few more words. When her shift ended, she quickly packed her bag, said goodbye to Fu Yi, and left for the day.

The villa returned to silence.

The brilliant light of the crystal chandelier shone down, and the meticulously prepared table of dishes gradually grew cold.

Fu Yi picked up the phone beside him. Already damp with sweat from his hands, he found the missed call in his contacts, the screen’s pale glow illuminating his face. He stared fixedly at the name "Nuannuan," hesitated for ten minutes, then dialed.

The "doo doo"...

The phone rang twice.

Each ring seemed to strike his heart, causing it to clench tightly, hoping she would pick up, yet fearing she might.

...

When Jiang Nuan opened the door for the Filipino maid, she sensed her cold was relapsing, found some cold medicine at home, and took a pill. When she returned, she noticed there was a missed call on her phone.

Originally, she had given up hope. She picked up her phone and casually glanced at it. With just one look, her gaze seemed to freeze.

Fu Yi.

This time, the missed call clearly displayed the name of the caller.

It was him!

Jiang Nuan’s heart skipped a beat.

Her fingertips involuntarily tightened around her phone.

Should she call back, and what should she say?

For the first time, Jiang Nuan showed a bewildered expression, not knowing exactly what she could say.

Sorry, I didn’t know I caused your leg problem?

Or ask if he’s been doing well lately?

No, no, Jiang Nuan shook her head abruptly, denying all possibilities. She hugged her phone and paced back and forth, unable to think of a natural way to greet him.

The sky brightened with the dawn of a new day.

Jiang Nuan, sporting panda eyes from a sleepless night, washed her face, got ready, grabbed her bag, and stepped out.
