Chapter 193: Is This Considered Hooliganism?

Chapter 193: Is This Considered Hooliganism?

At half past eleven in the evening, Jiang Xia had just finished her shower when she heard the phone ringing at home.

She quickly picked it up, "Hello?"

"Is this Jiang Xia? It's Ye Xian. Jiang Dong left in a hurry, saying something happened at home. Is everything alright? I've been worried all evening, couldn't sleep, so I thought I'd call to ask."

Jiang Xia raised an eyebrow, "Oh, it's just that my father was arrested, and the house is in chaos. My mother asked him to come back. Jiang Dong isn't even home yet! You should get some rest! Don't worry, it's fine. After this is over, Jiang Dong will explain everything when he returns to school. You two should get married soon! Next time, you can go home together! When Jiang Dong comes back, I'll tell him to marry you as soon as he's back at school. Alright, get some rest! Thanks for your concern, I have to go now. I need to go find someone."

Jiang Xia hung up the phone without waiting for a reply.

On the other end of the line, Ye Xian was left stunned. Jiang Fu was arrested? Is that really nothing to worry about?

Pulling out the radish brings out the mud; will Jiang Dong have any future left?

Can he still be relied upon?

And why did Jiang Xia ask her to marry Jiang Dong?

Could it be that Jiang Fu's situation is so severe that Jiang Xia fears Jiang Dong won't be able to find a wife in the future?

The more Ye Xian thought about it, the more afraid she became. She decided that tomorrow, after waking up, she would ask her classmates to find out what the consequences would be for someone of Jiang Fu's status to be taken away for investigation.

After saying just a few words, Jiang Xia hung up, leaving Ye Xian to her own imagination.

Hopefully, she would be scared enough to break up with Jiang Dong, as in the book, as soon as Jiang Fu got into trouble, she ran off with all the family's money.

At this moment, Zhou Chenglei pushed open the door and entered. Seeing Jiang Xia deep in thought, he carefully closed the door and approached her, "What are you thinking about? Why aren't you in bed yet?"

He had just been to the hotel to find Zhou Chengxin, informing him of his return and assuring his older brother that he could safely go home or out to sea tomorrow.

Jiang Xia snapped out of her thoughts and gave him a faint smile, "I told my brother."

"You did? Then why aren't you sleeping?" Zhou Chenglei sat beside her and gently pushed back the bangs from her forehead.

Jiang Xia explained, "I just finished showering, and you weren't back yet. How could I sleep peacefully?"

Zhou Chenglei's throat moved, and his voice deepened, "I'll go take a shower first."

He pulled her up, and they returned to the room.

The last time they spent the night, they had left two sets of clothes here. Zhou Chenglei went to the room, grabbed the clothes, and headed for the shower.

Jiang Xia was already exhausted and climbed onto the bed. She lay down, turned over, and fell asleep instantly.

Before lying down, she had wanted to ask Zhou Chenglei about the large ship's voyage over the past few days once he finished showering.

However, after lying down, there was no 'after'! Zhou Chenglei knew that Jiang Xia fell asleep quickly, so he had showered as fast as possible, worried that she might fall asleep while waiting.

But when he finished showering and returned to the room, she was already facing away from him, softly snoring.

"..."

So much for waiting for him.

Zhou Chenglei helplessly turned off the light, carefully climbed into bed, and kissed the top of her head. Not wanting to wake her, he gently embraced her from behind.

Jiang Xia felt the familiar scent, turned over to face him, and naturally buried her head in his chest, her feet resting on his.

Her silky smooth hair spread across his arm, filling his embrace with a fragrant scent.

Zhou Chenglei's lips curved upwards, content as he closed his eyes.

Late into the night, on the plane.

Zhang Fuyan had fallen asleep soon after boarding.

Jiang Dong was carefully using a towel to give her egg therapy.

An elderly gentleman had brought boiled eggs for himself and his wife, and Jiang Dong bought all four eggs from him and asked the flight attendant to warm them up.

Zhang Fuyan's face was swollen from Ye Xian's beating, and Jiang Dong felt terrible about it.

Her foot wasn't fully healed, and now her face was injured and swollen like a pig's head.

So, for the entire four-hour flight, he meticulously gave her face egg therapy, asking the flight attendant to reheat the eggs several times.

As the plane prepared for landing, the flight attendant's voice woke Zhang Fuyan. She stirred, opened her eyes, and found herself face to face with Jiang Dong, the egg still rolling on her face.

Zhang Fuyan's heart skipped a beat, "What are you doing?"

Jiang Dong, seeing that she was awake, smiled, "Little Fuyan, your face isn't swollen anymore!"

The flight attendant passed by and laughed, "Your brother has been giving you egg therapy for four hours!"

Jiang Dong smiled, a bit embarrassed, "It's the least I could do.

Zhang Fuyan straightened her posture and felt a bit embarrassed, "You don't have to do this. I've always been a tomboy, often getting into fights with the boys in the residential compound. I'm used to having bruises here and there, and they'll heal in a couple of days."

Jiang Dong said, "This is different. You got hurt because of me! I made you come with me, and now you've been beaten up. I feel terrible for not helping you recover."

Zhang Fuyan corrected him, "I came to help your sister."

Jiang Dong exclaimed, "Then I feel even worse! If my sister sees your face like this, she'll kill me for sure!"

Zhang Fuyan didn't say anything further, "Fine, then help me with my luggage when we get off the plane to make up for it!"

"Okay," Jiang Dong agreed readily.

The plane had already landed, and it was only around 3:30 in the morning. The two of them got off the plane and waited at the airport until around 5:00, when a taxi arrived to pick up passengers for the early morning flight. They managed to hail a taxi.

Zhang Fuyan had originally planned to go to the bus station, but Jiang Dong was concerned that she would be exhausted from all the traveling, and he was tired himself. Moreover, there wouldn't be any early buses at this hour.

Jiang Dong asked the taxi driver about the fare for the intercity trip, and after paying seventy yuan, the driver agreed to take them back.

Fortunately, the driver was familiar with the city they were heading to and recognized the route. Additionally, the two of them didn't look like troublemakers, which made the driver willing to take them.

On the way, Zhang Fuyan, who had slept on the plane, was wide awake. She didn't feel sleepy, and she didn't dare to sleep in the taxi, so she watched the road the entire journey.

Jiang Dong, who hadn't slept all night, dozed off. As the journey progressed, he slowly leaned towards Zhang Fuyan's shoulder.

For the first time, Zhang Fuyan gently pushed him away.

But soon, he leaned towards her again.

After pushing him away once more, Zhang Fuyan took a bag and placed it on her shoulder to block him.

When he unconsciously leaned towards her again, resting his head on the bag, Zhang Fuyan let him rest and fell asleep as well.

As they approached the city, the driver asked, "How do I get to your home?"

Jiang Dong was startled awake by the driver's voice and realized he had been sleeping with his head on Zhang Fuyan's shoulder. He quickly gave the driver directions and then apologized to Zhang Fuyan, "Sister Fuyan, I'm sorry. You could have just pushed me away."

Zhang Fuyan huffed, "I did push you, but you kept leaning towards me."

Jiang Dong: "..."

He had fallen asleep, but was he being a hooligan?

The taxi arrived at the residential building for employees, and it was only around 6:30 in the morning.

Zhou Chenglei had gone to deliver breakfast to Zhou Chengxin and then ran a few laps in the park, picking up some breakfast items along the way.

As soon as Jiang Dong got off the taxi, he spotted Zhou Chenglei and shouted, "Brother-in-law!"

Then, he turned to the people in the car and said, "My brother-in-law is here! My sister must be home. Sister Fuyan, do you want to come to my house and meet my sister?"

Zhang Fuyan looked out the car window and indeed saw Zhou Chenglei. She got out of the car, and Jiang Dong had just paid the fare before getting out.

Zhang Fuyan had come with the intention of seeing if she could be of help. With Jiang Xia present, she could ask him directly about what had happened and then find Auntie.

After getting out of the car, Zhang Fuyan smiled and greeted Zhou Chenglei, "Brother Zhou, is Xiaxia back at her parents' home?"

Zhou Chenglei glanced at the two of them expressionlessly and nodded.

Jiang Dong took Zhang Fuyan's luggage from her hand, "Let's go!"

Zhou Chenglei waited for the two of them to climb the stairs and then followed at a leisurely pace.

Jiang Dong took out the house keys and opened the door, saying to Zhang Fuyan, "Sister Fuyan, this is my home. Please go in first."

It was still early, and the living room was empty.

Zhang Fuyan took a quick glance and walked inside.

Jiang Fu was in the kitchen cooking porridge when he heard noises and came out. Seeing Jiang Dong bringing a female comrade home, he had initially thought it was Ye Xian.

But it wasn't her!

Jiang Dong saw his father and exclaimed happily, "Dad! Are you feeling better?"

However, Jiang Fu was furious!

How much time had passed?

Another female comrade brought home?

And it was still early in the morning!

Jiang Fu grabbed a soup spoon from the kitchen, ready to hit Jiang Dong!

Jiang Dong saw his father chasing after him with the spoon and quickly dodged, "Dad! Dad! Wait!... Let's talk calmly! What are you doing?"

Sister Fuyan was still there!

Did he have no shame?
