The Reborn Scholar Wants To Counterattack

I have been waiting for a whole afternoon...

She frowned, her stomach twitching with hunger.

What on earth were the two of them talking about? How could they talk for so long?

She called Chi Jingshan in a low voice: "Xiaochi?"

no respond.

Where did Xiaochi go?

She lowered her head and took out her mobile phone, but the screen was black and the battery was out of power.

Gu Weimian's brows frowned slightly.

She moved her frozen limbs, opened the car door, and got out of the car.

She didn't know whether it was because of her posture or because the temperature was too low. Her feet felt numb when she stepped on the ground, as if she were stepping on cotton, without any feeling.

As the cold wind blew, Gu Weimian sneezed hard and trembled involuntarily.

She narrowed her eyes and felt a little dizzy.

I just slept for a short while. Didn't I catch a cold?

This body...

Gu Weimian frowned...too weak.

Picking up the book, she flipped through it and found that it was almost complete.

I looked around, but there was no sign of Chi Jingshan.

The villa not far away was brightly lit, but the windows that were originally open during the day were now closed, and no warmth could come out.

She hugged her chest.

My lungs were burning and uncomfortable.

…

Ning Yuetong lowered her head and carefully glued the last piece of ink jade on.

She breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay."

When he raised his eyes, he met the man's burning eyes.

She was startled and bit her lip, "Brother A Yan?"

Huo Yan narrowed his eyes, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and there seemed to be stars in his eyes: "Thank you for your hard work."

Ning Yuetong immediately shook his head: "It's not hard."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the man eagerly reaching out his hand, and his white jade-like fingers brushed against the gold and ink jade cufflinks, which were shockingly beautiful.

It is a gesture of wanting to touch and love.

Such an action made Ning Yuetong dazed for a moment.

Her face suddenly turned red, and she had the illusion that she was the ink jade cufflink.

She silently picked up her own cup of hot tea and took a sip. This was the first time in her life that she had been alone with a man for such a long time.

Her eyes fell on Huo Yan's delicate eyebrows.

Although Huo Yan's leg was broken, the man was still handsome and heart-warming.

Her lips tightened, and the words that had been hidden in her heart for more than ten years were about to come out.

As soon as Ning Yuetong opened her mouth, the man suddenly stood up: "Thank you for today. I'm sorry for keeping you so late. Can I take you out?"

Ning Yuetong was stunned.

I glanced at the time displayed on the clock on the wall. It was already past ten o'clock in the evening.

She glanced at Huo Yan with anger and resentment. This man had already found an excuse to keep her, so why did he chase her away at this time?

She pouted and stood up from the sofa: "Then I'm leaving."

As she spoke, she kept looking straight at Huo Yan, hoping that the man would say something to keep her here.

The man didn't see it at all. His eyes stayed on the pair of cufflinks, as if the pair of cufflinks had endless magic power, attracting the man's full attention.

Ning Yuetong felt a little uncomfortable when she saw this: "These cufflinks are not worth anything at all."

Her family ancestors were in the jewelry business, so she could see the value of this cufflink at a glance.

It's not an antique, and the jade isn't considered a good jade either.

It's just a pair of ordinary cufflinks. If put on the market, it would be worth at most thirty or forty thousand yuan.

Huo Yan raised his lips, looked softly, and did not refute Ning Yuetong's words: "Yeah."
