Chapter 721

With the help from the assistant and Zhao Meng, Lu Jinnian shoved the things into her car, then they said their goodbyes to the two of them . He started up the car and drove Qiao Anhao back to Mian Xiu Garden .

When Qiao Anhao got into the car, she saw a bouquet of fresh flowers in the back seat . Just as she was going to ask where Lu Jinnian had gotten them from, she saw there was a card between the beautiful and delicate flowers . She grabbed it and saw the three simple words Lu Jinnian had written, "For Qiao Qiao . "

A lovely smile blossomed on her face, and she pulled out her phone . She hugged the fresh flowers up to take a selfie with the peace sign, a pout, a puppy dog eyes look, and a joyful smile .

Lu Jinnian, who was focused on driving at the time, saw her small motions in the rear view mirror . His expression was cold as usual, yet there was an obvious hint of a smile in his eyes .

The previous night at the bar, Xu Jiamu had drank until he passed out . When he opened his eyes, he got this feeling like he didn't know what day or year it was . He drunkenly lay on the sofa in deep asleep . He remembered that people couldn't find a number to call to take him away last night, so all they could do was leave him there in a private room .

Xu Jiamu's head hurt like crazy from his hangover . He lay there dizzily for a while before searching through his pockets . After rummaging for a really long time, he couldn't find his phone . Then he remembered that he had thrown it in the car, upset with Han Ruchu's constant calls .

He rubbed his slightly painful head and got up from the sofa . He slept in a poor position, so his entire body was exhausted and in pain . The bartender was fast asleep, so Xu Jiamu didn't disturb him . Instead, he pulled out a wad of cash, placed it by his ear, and left .

When Xu Jiamu went outside, he realized that it was already nightfall . Though he was sober again, he was still a little dazed . He went round the row of cars parked outside to find his own and got in . He grabbed his phone to find that it had turned itself off because there was no more battery left .

Xu Jiamu plugged it into the car charger and lay down against the steering wheel with squinted eyes for a while . When he heard the phone ring as it turned on, he turned his head and glanced over to find a series of text messages and missed calls .

The calls and texts mostly came from Han Ruchu's number . As Xu Jiamu saw several pages of the screen fill up with her messages, he felt even more down . He only felt slightly better after he deleted all of them . With that, he started up the car .

He drove around aimlessly, before finally heading for Mian Xiu Garden . He stopped the car in the courtyard of his own villa, pulled down the car window, and lit up a cigarette . He stared at Lu Jinnian's courtyard behind the fence in a daze .

Xu Jiamu wasn't even sure how long he'd been staring, when suddenly he heard the sound of a car door opening up . He snapped back to reality, and looked over at the courtyard next door . Qiao Anhao was hugging a bouquet of flowers with a warm smile on her face as she got out of the car . Soon after, the driver's door opened and Lu Jinnian also strode out .

The very moment Xu Jiamu saw Lu Jinnian's side profile, he didn't quite know why he was in such a panic, but he suddenly pulled his hand away from the car window . Then he pressed the button to pull it up .

Because he moved far too suddenly, he accidentally flicked the cigarette butt in his hand right onto the photocopy on the front passenger seat .

It was like Xu Jiamu had been shocked by electricity, and he couldn't feel the burn or pain . He stretched his arm straight out and extinguished the fire from the cigarette .
