Summer Kiss

Chapter 201 Wrong Direction

Fu Xicheng nodded, his eating movements seemingly possessing an innate elegance that was pleasing to the eye.

Within minutes, all the dishes they ordered were served, and the table was full of food with an enticing aroma.

After finishing his meal, Fu Xicheng's eyes flickered slightly, and he asked gently, "Ningning, are you full?"

Jiang Yuning was confused for a moment. Of course she was full, otherwise why would she have put down her chopsticks?

She looked at Fu Xicheng with a puzzled expression, her brows furrowed. "What do you mean by asking that?"

Just then, Fu Xicheng pulled Jiang Yuning onto his lap, a mischievous smile playing on his lips, "Of course I want to spend some time with you after dinner."

Jiang Yuning instinctively put her hands on his shoulders. She sat on Fu Xicheng's lap, feeling somewhat uneasy.

She knew better than anyone how serious the wound on his chest was.

Every time she saw his wounds, her heart ached as if it were being cut by a knife.

Has his wound completely healed in just over a month?
She was worried that her weight would affect his wound.

"Fu Xicheng, let me down."

Fu Xicheng rested his head on her shoulder, revealing his inner vulnerability, "Ningning, let me lean on you for a while, I've been so tired lately."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuning spoke with a hint of reproach, but her eyes were full of tenderness, "Oh, so you've been staying up all night behind my back again, Fu Xicheng, do you even care about your own health?"

Fu Xicheng was terrified; he didn't seem to have told Jiang Yuning that he had stayed up all night.

A hint of barely perceptible panic flickered in his eyes, but his tone remained perfectly calm. "Ningning, who told you I was staying up all night?"

"Don't deny it, I know everything."

Jiang Yuning quickly lifted Fu Xicheng's clothes, eager to check his injuries.

Fu Xicheng quickly stopped her, his voice slightly hurried, and he held her hands tightly as she tried to move.

"Ningning, what are you doing?"

Jiang Yuning thought to herself, what she was going to do, she felt that Fu Xicheng should understand her thoughts.

She slightly raised her eyes, her gaze seemingly sparkling with starlight. "Don't you know what I'm going to do? Fu Xicheng, don't even think about defying me."

“I didn’t resist,” Fu Xicheng paused for a moment, as if thinking about something, then continued, “Don’t forget this is a hotel.”

Jiang Yuning raised an eyebrow, a faint smile appearing on her lips.

"You knew we were in a hotel. When we entered the private room, you just grabbed me and kissed me on the table without any regard for the situation. Didn't you consider that we were in a hotel? How is your act of kissing me any different from me lifting up your clothes?"

This is utter nonsense.

Jiang Yuning is becoming more and more adept at sophistry; her mouth seems ready to utter irrefutable words at any moment.

He absolutely cannot let her continue like this.

"Ningning, this is different."

Jiang Yuning didn't want to listen to Fu Xicheng's nonsense. She only had one thing on her mind: to lift his clothes and check his injuries.

"Let go of me."

Fu Xicheng seemed to have no intention of letting go; he gripped Jiang Yuning's hand even tighter.

"If you want to see it, let's go see it in the car, not here."

Not here? There are no security cameras here, Fu Xicheng just told her that. Jiang Yuning stared intently at Fu Xicheng, as if trying to find something in his eyes.

"Fu Xicheng, are you scared? Didn't you say this place was absolutely safe? Is there something wrong with your wound? Otherwise, why are you stalling for time like this?"

Fu Xicheng suddenly realized that Jiang Yuning had lifted his clothes to check his injuries, and he had thought she was planning to cause trouble for him.

He secretly regretted that he had thought in the wrong direction; he had misunderstood her.

However, you can't blame him for overthinking it; the only one to blame is the two of them for going around in circles and not making things clear.

Fu Xicheng's tone instantly became much more relaxed, "Ningning, actually my injury has long since healed."

Jiang Yuning became suspicious of his words. Fu Xicheng had been evasive for a long time, but now he suddenly said that his injury was healed. There must be something fishy going on here.

Her eyes held a questioning look. "Now that your injury has healed, why won't you let me see it?"

To put Jiang Yuning at ease, Fu Xicheng raised his hand and lifted up his robe.

He said, "I'll show you."

Jiang Yuning's gaze slowly moved down, and she clearly saw the location of Fu Xicheng's wound. There was a hideous wound there. Although the wound had stopped bleeding, it was still shocking to see him injured.

She gently stroked the wound, looked up, and suddenly asked softly, "Fu Xicheng, it will heal completely, right?"

Looking at Jiang Yuning's worried expression, Fu Xicheng gently pinched the tip of her nose. "Ningning, do you think it looks bad? If you do, I can apply some scar removal cream and make sure it disappears."

Jiang Yuning shook her head. She loved Fu Xicheng and everything about him, so a wound was neither beautiful nor ugly to her.

With deep affection in her eyes, she said softly, "I don't think it's ugly, it's just that seeing this wound makes me involuntarily think of some bad things."

Fu Xicheng believes that Jiang Yuning will never forget those unforgettable experiences.

He pulled her closer to him and said softly, "Then don't think about it. After a while, I'll apply some ointment every day, and it definitely won't leave a scar."

Jiang Yuning lowered her eyes and remained silent.

Fu Xicheng seemed to have guessed what she was thinking, and gently patted her shoulder, "It's all in the past, don't overthink it."

Jiang Yuning looked up and said, "I've been busy with work lately and haven't had time to think about anything else."

Fu Xicheng nodded, not continuing the heavy topic. "I'll take you back to the company."

Jiang Yuning looked up at him. They hadn't seen each other for so many days. Didn't Fu Xicheng want to spend more time with her?
This is not like him at all.

"Fu Xicheng, didn't you just say you wanted to spend some time with me?"

Fu Xicheng had his own plans, and he had a very clever scheme in mind.

"Wouldn't it be nice to take you to your company and spend time together there?"

Jiang Yuning: "???"

She was completely stunned. How could she not have thought of this? This was indeed something Fu Xicheng was capable of doing.

After all, he was friends with his boss, and he could easily use that relationship to use his office to continue his affair with her.

She wondered why Fu Xicheng wasn't being affectionate with her anymore, and now she knew the reason was this.

Jiang Yuning couldn't help but praise him, "Fu Xicheng, you're really something."

Fu Xicheng's handsome face curled into a playful smile, "I've always been capable, doesn't Ningning know that?"
