Chapter 763: Lack of Ability
The doorman stepped back awkwardly, making way for the person who got out of the car.
After Fu Jiuxiao got out of the car, he tidied up the sleeves of his suit, turned around, and carried Jiang Li, who was half asleep, into the hotel.
Jiang Li was dazzled by the light, and she woke up in a daze. “Are we almost there?”
“Not yet, go to sleep.” Fu Jiuxiao’s voice was very gentle, like a lullaby, coaxing Jiang Li to sleep again.
Wei Ziheng followed behind them, and when he saw this scene, his heart was full of jealousy.
They did not care about the physical and mental health of single men at all, and they were showing off their love without restraint every day, which made him jealous.
Fu Jiuxiao carried Jiang Li into their room. Wei Ziheng took two steps forward and was about to catch up, but he was caught by the Dapeng and Erlong.
“Mr. Wei, your room isn’t here,” Dapeng reminded Wei Ziheng seriously.
Wei Ziheng frowned unhappily and stretched his neck, but because the Dapeng and Erlong blocked him, he could not come any closer.
Fu Jiuxiao was very strict with the men who appeared.
Wei Ziheng walked to his room sullenly, feeling very disappointed. He did not walk out of his room again that day.
Jiang Li did not know Wei Ziheng’s temper after being ignored. She only felt an itch on her lips and instinctively wanted to push the troublemaker away. Then, a muffled laugh came from her ear.
It was Fu Jiuxiao.
Jiang Li put down her hands and tried to open her eyes. She looked at Fu Jiuxiao and said, “Xiao, I’m hungry.”
Fu Jiuxiao reached out and pulled Jiang Li up. “Let’s eat something first.”
“Okay!” Jiang Li followed Fu Jiuxiao as he pulled her up and she fell into Fu Jiuxiao’s arms.
Fu Jiuxiao looked at her with heartache and reached out to touch her forehead. “Are you very tired today?”
Jiang Li nodded vigorously and hugged Fu Jiuxiao’s arm coquettishly. “A lot of knowledge has taken over my brain. They are all crowding each other, and no one is willing to give way to anyone.”
“Xiao, am I too stupid?”
This was a rare moment when Jiang Li began to doubt herself. Was her ability far from enough to support her to absorb all the knowledge?
Fu Jiuxiao gently hugged Jiang Li and coaxed her. “How is that possible? You entered Jing University with the top ranking in the province. How can you doubt yourself?”
He suddenly thought of a possibility. His intuition told him that Jiang Li would not be at a disadvantage, but he could not help but ask, “Did someone bully you?”
Jiang Li covered her mouth and laughed when she heard that. She raised her head and kissed Fu Jiuxiao’s cheek. “It’s rare for me to start my university life. It doesn’t feel real.”
This was the life she gave up in her previous life.
She had given up her life, including her beautiful university life, for an unreliable love.
In this life, she had seized the opportunity to get into the major she wanted, but she found that she had lost her advantage in high school. Everything needed to be redone.
It was because of this that she had to work a thousand times harder than before to barely keep up with the progress.
Fu Jiuxiao bit Jiang Li’s earlobe. “When you are resting, rest well. Don’t think about it anymore.”
“I… can help tutor you.”
Jiang Li’s eyes lit up, and she turned to look at Fu Jiuxiao. “Really?”
“Really.” Fu Jiuxiao promised.
He had two other things to discuss with Jiang Li. He was going to persuade Jiang Li to eat something first and then talk about business when he heard a clear rumbling sound.
Where did this sound come from?
Fu Jiuxiao looked at Jiang Li in surprise, and Jiang Li’s face turned red with anger. “It’s you…”
Jiang Li immediately denied it. “No, no, don’t talk nonsense.”
Fu Jiuxiao held back his laughter and promised, “Okay, okay, it’s all a misunderstanding.”
Jiang Li’s face turned red. Seeing that Fu Jiuxiao was trying hard to control his expression, she angrily grabbed the pillow on the sofa and threw it at him.
Fu Jiuxiao hurriedly reached out to catch it. When he looked at Jiang Li who was sitting at the dining table, he found that she was so embarrassed that she did not want to talk to him anymore.
This…
Fu Jiuxiao could feel that at this moment, Jiang Li finally had a shy and short temper that suited her age.
Jiang Li did not notice Fu Jiuxiao’s absent-minded look. She only knew that she had never lost her composure in front of Fu Jiuxiao. It was too embarrassing.
Jiang Li came back to her senses and pretended that nothing had happened. When Fu Jiuxiao coaxed Jiang Li to eat more, he also talked about the serious matter that he mentioned.
There was already had a clue about the buyer who bought the information from the Jiang family, and this clue was connected to Jiang Man.
Jiang Li’s expression changed rapidly, and her embarrassment and anger disappeared in a blink of an eye. She sneered, “It’s she again?”
“I’m starting to admire Jiang Man. She’s really capable and tenacious. Every time she finds a chance to survive in a desperate situation, I can’t compare to her.”
Jiang Man was able to find a way out in every crisis not by chance, but by her ability.
“I’m suddenly very envious of her.” Jiang Li was telling the truth.
Everyone hoped that every time they encountered difficulties, someone would lend a hand to them. They hoped people would help them regardless of the reward, and at the same time, the people would give them a lot of benefits.
Fu Jiuxiao leaned against the back of his chair and gently shook his wine back. “Behind every chance is a trap that will devour everyone in the Jiang family.”
There was a price to pay for greed.
