Chapter 722
Although Xu Jiamu was quick, the fire still managed to burn a hole in the paper .
With a turn of his head, Xu Jiamu saw Qiao Anhao and Lu Jinnian through the car window walk into the villa one after the other . When Lu Jinnian entered the passcode, he didn't know what Qiao Anhao said, but it pursed her lips into a light smile, prompting Lu Jinnian to stretch his arm out . He stroked her hair and pulled open the door to the villa .
The door didn't shut immediately, so Xu Jiamu could clearly see the two of them standing at the entrance . Lu Jinnian bent down to help Qiao Anhao take off her shoes, and he even put a pair of slippers in front of her . When Qiao Anhao changed her shoes, she tiptoed and pecked Lu Jinnian on the cheek . Lu Jinnian very clearly froze for a moment, then reached his arm out and brought her in front of him with a tug of her arm like he was going to kiss her . In the end, Qiao Anhao held the bouquet of flowers to her face and ran into the house .
Lu Jinnian looked like he was in an excellent mood . He stood at the entrance for a few seconds staring at Qiao Anhao as she ran off . He then changed his shoes and casually closed the door shut .
In the car, Xu Jiamu secretly let out a sigh .
He lowered his head, his eyes falling to the signature on the will in his hands .
Though the words on the photocopy weren't very clear, he could still recognize the two cursive words as Lu Jinnian's name .
Whilst holding the several sheets of paper, his hand started to tremble . Though it had all happened a day ago, he still felt like it was a dream . How could things suddenly turn out like this?

He used to smile and call him ‘bro’ whenever he bumped into Lu Jinnian .
Every time Qiao Qiao saw him, she used to give him a warm smile and call him Brother Jiamu .
How did it suddenly . . . suddenly be that he couldn't face the two of them?
In the car, Xu Jiamu stared at the sheets of paper for a long time before he started the car up . Slowly, he drove out of Mian Xiu Garden .
Coincidentally, it was the time for people to get off from work, so there were a lot of cars on the streets of Beijing . He hit the accelerator for one second, then the next, he hit the breaks . Xu Jiamu blindly followed the flow of the traffic, starting and stopping . Eventually, he blanked out for a moment and hit the tail of someone's car .
Thankfully, it wasn't too serious, and the other vehicle was a taxi . The taxi driver was afraid of being late for work so they spoke privately and the other man asked for a thousand yuan . Xu Jiamu paid it without negotiating . After that, he continued to drive aimlessly with a broken headlight .
Night had slowly fallen when Xu Jiamu snapped to his senses and realized that he had driven all the way to Suyuan apartments .
He dazed out for a while but eventually stepped on the breaks . He stopped the car, stared at the apartments’ entrance, looking deep in thought .
This was Song Xiangsi's home . . . In total, the two of them hadn't been in contact for five to six months now . . . She was probably doing well . At a dinner a while back, he heard that she got a job as a judge for a variety show on some television station . The job offered as much as a billion!
Xu Jiamu pushed open the car door, got out, and leaned against the car, staring up at Song Xiangsi's apartment for a moment . He heard a minivan pull up beside him, and had a strange feeling about it . He abruptly turned his head to really see Song Xiangsi get out of the vehicle . She didn't even notice him, as she kept the usual arrogant look on her face, repeatedly ordering her manager in the car, and waving her arm around in annoyance . Then she stomped towards the apartment entrance in her high heels .
