Chapter: 2744
It's possible that Paul is currently away on business trip, so Jiamei must be alone at home, and she has just fallen ill. At this moment, the old gentleman is paying a visit, but what if it's not genuine? It would be hard to handle.
Thinking about this, he simply took out a return spring pill from his pocket, scraped off a bit of powder with his key and dissolved it in the congee.
Estimated that, as soon as Jiamei drank this bowl of congee, her ordinary headache and fever would definitely subside immediately.
Leaf Chen did this mainly to prevent any unexpected incidents from happening tonight between the old gentleman and Jiamei.
He wasn't worried about Jiamei's character, but he was very concerned about the old gentleman's resolve and Jiamei's mental toughness in her sick state.
What if the old gentleman, while taking care of her, had some ulterior motives? And Jiamei, being physically ill and psychologically dependent on Xiao Changkun, let him take advantage of the situation?
Although Leaf Chen hopes Xiao Changkun will one day have a romantic relationship with Jiamei, he hasn't divorced Ma Ran yet, and if he really cheats on his wife or gets caught by her, the family would be in chaos, affecting himself and Xiao Churan's lives as well.
So, Leaf Chen can only hope that Jiamei drinks this bowl of congee and recovers health immediately.
That way, even if my old gentleman friend actually has ulterior motives, at least he won't have the chance to take advantage of the situation...
Leaf Chen got into his car and left just as Xiao Changkun was getting restless, quickening his pace.
In fact, ever since Jiamei told him over the phone that she would be returning home, he had been consumed by thoughts of her.
After Jiamei returned home, it only fanned the flames of passion within him, igniting a fire that had been burning deep down for many years.
Over the past two to three decades, Xiao Changkun felt most happy during those moments when Jiamei came back and cooked meals at his place, with them embracing tightly in the kitchen.
However, Jiamei's attitude is very rational; she knows that Xiao Changkun and Ma Ran are not divorced yet, so she has always kept a tight grip on herself, unwilling to take any real steps forward with him.
Xiao Changkun constantly worried about this, but never found a breakthrough opportunity.
Although Xiao Changkun spent his whole life being confined to a small circle, at least he was a normal man; in his heart, he had yearned for Jiamei for many years, both psychologically and physically.
So, he always longed to rekindle the old flame with his first love, but in most cases, their interactions were limited to casual encounters at the university, leaving everything at the emotional level without any further development.
However, today's situation is different.
Jiamei suddenly fell ill with a fever and was left alone, so Xiao Changkun felt that, in such a moment, a woman's heart would be at its most vulnerable and most needed someone to rely on.
Additionally, they had already shared a past where their emotions were intertwined, and currently, there was still an emotional connection between them; under these circumstances, it was even easier for him to hope for a breakthrough.
So, Xiao Changkun rushed over in a hurry, expecting today to be different.
As for Ma Ran, he didn't care to think about it or worry about it.
After all, in his eyes, Ma Ran was the destroyer of his life; he had no emotions or loyalty towards Ma Ran.
Full of excitement, he sprinted to the door of Jiamei's villa.
As he stood at the entrance, Xiao Changkun pressed the electronic doorbell beside the door. JrNovels.com
