The Time-Limited Love and Marriage
Chapter 327
CHAPTER 327: CHAPTER 327
Fu Youhan was still wearing the suit he left the club in earlier, flipping through a classified document in the room.
Upon hearing the door being pushed open by Jiang Moxi, his expression showed a bit of astonishment.
He immediately locked the document he was holding into the drawer, then turned to face Jiang Moxi.
"Why are you back? I thought you’d stay and play a bit longer over there."
Fu Youhan had already regained his usual gentle smile, concealing any inappropriate expressions from his face as he looked at Jiang Moxi.
Jiang Moxi actually sensed that Fu Youhan seemed a bit panicky earlier, as if he was afraid she would see something.
But facing Fu Youhan’s familiar smile, she doubted her previous observation, thinking it might have been her misconception.
"There wasn’t much fun, actually."
After her response, she tentatively asked, "You seemed quite reluctant to let me into the room just now. Is your bedroom not open to me?"
Fu Youhan stepped forward, wrapping his arms around Jiang Moxi’s slender waist, lowered his head to kiss her red lips, and then said, "You’re overthinking it. Which part of me have you not seen? Would I mind you seeing my room?"
Jiang Moxi couldn’t stand the seductive air of Fu Youhan, especially his recklessly flirty words, and her ears heated up instantly.
She punched Fu Youhan lightly, annoyed, "I’m talking to you about something serious."
Fu Youhan responded, "I am too talking about something serious."
As Jiang Moxi wondered when Fu Youhan had become so glib, he already began whispering huskily in her ear.
"Since you didn’t find the club fun, let’s have some real fun at home."
As he spoke, his lips gently nibbled Jiang Moxi’s ear and continued downward...
This action made it difficult not to speculate about what he referred to as "fun."
"Can I not play?" Jiang Moxi’s eyes were misty, her beautiful brows and eyes filled with endless allure.
Fu Youhan felt that no man could resist this unintentional seduction from Jiang Moxi, and declared near her ear, "No!"
The next second, he sealed Jiang Moxi’s lips, starting to create their romantic memories all around the room...

The next morning, Jiang Moxi woke up to a message personally sent by Xuanming.
"Danger, evacuate!"
Xuanming maintained his usual style of using as few words as possible.
Upon seeing this message, the sleepiness that just began to surge instantly dissipated.
"No need, let me investigate the person’s motive first, then it won’t be late to leave."
Actually, Jiang Moxi thought, delaying even a day would be worthwhile.
Because the days spent with Fu Youhan were really sweet and intoxicating.
Xuanming quickly replied, "Disagree, obviously targeting you."
Not many people in Yan City knew about the real Dead Ghost, so the appearance of a fake Dead Ghost in Yan City was worth contemplating.
"I know it’s targeting me, that’s why I must investigate clearly, no need to persuade me further!"
After sending this message, there was no further reply from Xuanming.
Because Xuanming knew, once she set her mind on something, it was hard to sway her.
"Why are you still lying in bed? Come on, get up for breakfast, don’t you still have school?"
Jiang Moxi looked up and saw Fu Youhan wearing a light gray loungewear standing at the bedroom door.
Perhaps due to a night of satisfaction, Fu Youhan moved with endless languor in every gesture.
Jiang Moxi quickly deleted the chat history with Xuanming and then smiled back at the man, "Okay."
A beautiful morning, a delicious breakfast, coupled with their harmonious coexistence.
All previous displeasures seemed about to be dissolved by the wind.
But halfway through breakfast, Fu Youhan’s mobile phone rang.
Then, Fu Youhan was busy editing messages and reading replies throughout.
Jiang Moxi rarely saw Fu Youhan chatting on WeChat with anyone, and he was so focused, so she casually asked, "Who is it?"
But Fu Youhan seemed to be completely immersed in the conversation with that person, completely unaware of Jiang Moxi’s question.
Watching Fu Youhan busy editing messages, the light in Jiang Moxi’s eyes also faded like this forgotten breakfast, gradually losing its warmth.
"I’ll be there soon."
When he sent this final message and looked up, Jiang Moxi had already left the opposite seat.
And the food placed in front of Jiang Moxi was almost untouched...
Looking at the food, a hint of complexity flickered in Fu Youhan’s dark eyes.
*
Jiang Moxi was not in a good mood and lay on her desk to sleep as soon as she reached school.
Fu Youhan seemed to realize that he had neglected her this morning and made several calls to her.
But Jiang Moxi, feeling irritable, had no intention to answer the phone and just let it ring repeatedly.
After several phone calls, Fu Youhan noticed that Jiang Moxi had no intention of answering and simply switched to sending messages.
"Xixi, I was a bit preoccupied this morning, sorry for neglecting you."
"I’m sorry, once I’m done with this busy period, I will definitely make it up to you."
"Xixi..."
Fu Youhan sent many messages, but Jiang Moxi still didn’t want to respond.
However, she did not take her anger out on Ling Hua because of Fu Youhan.
When it was time for Ling Hua’s tutoring, she took her place as usual.
But Ling Hua still sensitively noticed Jiang Moxi’s poor mood and asked, "Sister Moxi, are you feeling upset?"
"It’s alright."
Jiang Moxi silently assigned Ling Hua a few more practice problems, but that still did not stop the curious Huahua from probing.
"Did your boyfriend or the man of your dreams upset you?"
Ling Hua guessed it in one go, making Jiang Moxi feel that Ling Hua’s EQ was much higher than Ling Ye’s.
However, Jiang Moxi did not want to reveal anything in front of Ling Hua and counter-asked her, "What made you think that?"
Confused, Ling Hua then started to analyze for Jiang Moxi, "Because every time Brother Junyi annoys me, I am just like you are now."
Just as Ling Hua mentioned Xue Junyi, Jiang Moxi quickly asked, "How are things going with Xue Junyi?"
Ling Hua claimed it was okay, but couldn’t help but show off to Jiang Moxi about the fruits Xue Junyi bought for her, and mentioned his plans to work hard to earn money to buy her a house.
In short, the current Ling Hua exuded a sour smell of being in love.
But Jiang Moxi thought the fruits Xue Junyi bought for Ling Hua, which were the cheap tomatoes from a group-buying APP, often on promotion for less than a yuan, were not impressive.
So, Jiang Moxi couldn’t help but remind Ling Hua to be more cautious.
With a sweet smile, Ling Hua said, "I know these little tomatoes aren’t valuable, but it’s the thought that counts from Brother Junyi. Plus, Brother Junyi is saving up for a house; it’s fitting to cut back on expenses."
Seeing this, Jiang Moxi didn’t persuade Ling Hua any further; after all, some things are like drinking water—only the drinker knows whether it’s cold or warm, and more advice from others is unnecessary.
However, seeing Jiang Moxi still looking dejected, Ling Hua then said, "Sister Moxi, why don’t you stay and have dinner with us later? My uncle just called, saying he will bring several kinds of crabs for us to enjoy."
Ling Hua didn’t notice that mentioning her uncle made Jiang Moxi frown, as she continued enthusiastically:
"Crabs are so delicious, once you eat them you’ll forget all your troubles."
Coincidentally, just as Ling Hua finished speaking, Ling Ye’s voice welcoming Fu Youhan into the room could be heard from outside.
"Uncle, Huahua and Moxi are studying, please have a seat for a while..."
