Summer Kiss

Chapter 152 Going to Kyoto

...

Jiang Yuning got on the elevator, but her tense nerves didn't relax. She remained vigilant until she got home.

She returned home, locked the security door from the inside, and began packing her suitcase.

After finishing everything, she couldn't help but look through her chat history with Fu Xicheng.

There's warmth, there's teasing, and there are sweet words.

Jiang Yuning suddenly sighed; she didn't seem to have any photos of her boyfriend on her phone.

Although she had an image of Fu Xicheng in her mind, it was not the real person.

She missed him, but she couldn't see him.

Just then, a rapid knocking sounded on the door.

Jiang Yuning looked toward the doorway, stood up, and peered through the peephole.

Two men in police uniforms were standing outside. Jiang Yuning was torn. Should she open the door for them? Were they really police officers?

Suddenly, she remembered what had happened that day. Perhaps the police wanted to know more about what had happened.

The next second, she opened the security door.

Two police officers in uniform explained to Jiang Yuning the purpose of their visit.

Jiang Yuning invited them in.

They sat on the sofa, and Jiang Yuning poured them two glasses of hot water.

One of the officers asked, "Ms. Jiang, regarding this old murder case, we'd like to get a deeper understanding of what happened back then, and could you also think of any details that we might have missed?"

Jiang Yuning nodded. The case was still under investigation, and she was willing to cooperate with them to find out the truth as soon as possible.

"Do I need to recount what happened today?"

The officers nodded, and they took out their notebooks to begin taking statements.

Jiang Yuning recalled what had happened that day and told them everything that had happened.

"Officer, someone followed me after get off work today. I suspect those people were after me."

“Ms. Jiang, you’re overthinking it. There’s a security camera at the spot where you crashed. We checked the video and found that the man on the motorcycle had his eyes on Shi Jiu the whole time.”

Jiang Yuning frowned, deeply perplexed; the matter seemed even more puzzling.

"If that's the case, then who are the people following me?"

The two officers exchanged a meaningful glance.

One of the officers said, "Ms. Jiang, we will investigate this matter thoroughly. Please be careful recently and try not to go out at night."

"In addition, we will send people to patrol near your home. If you find any suspicious persons, please notify us immediately."

Jiang Yuning nodded.

Even after the two police officers left, Jiang Yuning was still unable to calm down.

Just then, a sudden cell phone ring brought Jiang Yuning back to her senses.

She glanced down at the phone lying on the sofa. Xu Yansheng's name appeared on the screen. A glint flashed in her eyes, and she immediately answered the call.

Jiang Yuning's heart raced, and she immediately asked, "Xu Yansheng, I want to ask if you are with Fu Xicheng?"

Xu Yansheng hadn't slept all night. He closed his bloodshot eyes briefly. "I'm abroad right now. What's wrong? Do you need to see Fu Xicheng?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuning's expression darkened slightly. "I couldn't get through to him, so I wanted to ask you." "He went to Kyoto to handle company matters. I know him; once he gets busy, he won't look at his phone for several days in a row. Miss Jiang, Fu Xicheng will return to Haicheng in a few days after he finishes his work."

“But he has a girlfriend now,” Jiang Yuning paused, then continued, “Sorry to bother you, Mr. Xu. You can go ahead with your work. I’m hanging up now.”

After hanging up the phone, Xu Yansheng looked at Fu Xicheng, who was still unconscious on the bed.

He murmured softly, "Fu Xicheng, you need to wake up soon, otherwise I won't be able to keep it from Jiang Yuning."

Jiang Yuning tossed her phone onto the bed and sighed. Perhaps it was true, as Xu Yansheng had said, that Fu Xicheng was currently extremely busy.

He'll come back to her once he's finished with his work.

She wasn't a clingy girlfriend, but now, she just wanted to stick close to him.

Jiang Yuning lost all interest in drawing tonight. She threw herself onto the bed and closed her eyes.

In the middle of the night, Jiang Yuning woke up from her dream and called out Fu Xicheng's name.

She fumbled for her phone on the bedside table and saw that it was 2:30 a.m. She went to the bathroom and then lay back down on the bed.

After regaining consciousness, Jiang Yuning found that she couldn't fall asleep no matter what she tried. She recalled every little thing between her and Fu Xicheng, and when she thought of certain scenes, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Jiang Yuning closed her eyes, telling herself to go to sleep quickly and absolutely not to think about Fu Xicheng anymore.

Early in the morning, Jiang Yuning's alarm clock rang several times before she finally reached out from under the covers to turn it off.

She tidied up a bit and then dragged her suitcase to the airport.

She arrived at the airport safely, found her company's flag-bearing team in the crowd, and walked over to them.

After Jiang Yuning got off the plane, she breathed a sigh of relief. Everything had been normal on the way, and nothing had happened.

Soon, she arrived at the hotel with the company team.

At the same time, the Fu family received news that Jiang Yuning had come to Kyoto.

Unfortunately, Jiang Yuning never acted alone, so they never had a chance to strike.

For nearly a week, Jiang Yuning was busy training new employees at the branch office, and she gained a lot during this period.

Finally, the last day of training arrived, and the intense work came to an end. The company was generous and granted them a day off, allowing them to freely travel around Kyoto.

The company pays for all entrance fees to attractions that require tickets.

Jiang Yuning finally had a day off, but instead of going out, she chose to stay in the hotel.

She nestled in bed with a notebook on her lap and began searching online for information about the Fu family.

Just as she was engrossed in her research, she heard a soft knock on the door.

She put the notebook on the bed, walked to the door, and looked through the peephole, only to find that there was no one outside.

Instead of rushing to open the door, she went back to bed and continued searching for the information she wanted to know.

After some time, Wang, the designer from the design department, returned carrying a large bag full of things.

She noticed a mysterious object hanging on the doorknob.

She entered the room and asked suspiciously, "Jiang Yuning, is that thing hanging on the doorknob yours?"

Jiang Yuning looked over at the sound and walked over, finding an exquisite handbag hanging on the doorknob.

She shook her head. "I didn't buy anything."

It's not Jiang Yuning's, and it's not hers either. Did someone deliver it to the wrong place?
