Chapter 1952: I’m hallucinating

But the old general said, “Just let her come back. I can also test if there’s anything wrong with her.”1

“It’s too dangerous.”

“Although I’m old, I’m not as useless as you think! Others don’t understand her, so how can they tell if she’s real or fake? !”

Leng Jiuchen was silent for a moment, then said, “I’ll inform Jiaojiao to come back. With her around, I’ll be more at ease.”

The old general muttered, “That’s good too.”

Leng Jiao had not left the capital for long. She had originally thought that it would be a long time before she returned. After all, she had not even returned for Leng Jiuchen’s inauguration ceremony.

It could be imagined just how much she did not want to return to the capital.

It was just that she had not expected that so many changes would occur during her absence.

Yue Qiuci came back from the dead and left after having a miscarriage. All these events shocked her beyond words.

There must be something fishy going on. Therefore, when Leng Jiuchen asked her to come back and check on Yue Qiuci with the old general, she agreed without hesitation.

After Yue Qiuci woke up, she had been staying in Huo Sikai’s private villa.

However, Leng Jiuchen had not come to see her since the day she woke up.

In addition to what Huo Sikai had told her, he was extremely lonely and dejected. This made Huo Sikai sigh endlessly every day -- asking what love was in the world was like teaching people to love each other to the death.

Love was really too terrifying.

He was also very panicked and anxious as he guarded Yue Qiuci every day.

Seeing that Yue Qiuci was in a daze alone in the house, he came to the villa again and stood by the small fountain to call Shi Beiyu.

There was nothing he could do. Leng Jiuchen was too busy right now. Plus, with the incident with Xiang Qiuci, he was too embarrassed to disturb her.

“What’s Wrong Now?”

The call went through and Shi Beiyu’s disgusted voice came from the other side.

Huo Sikai was helpless. “Ah Yu, Xiao Yue, what are you going to do? Are you going to let her stay at my place forever?”

“What else?”

“No, how can I do that? Think of a way to find a place for her to settle down. It’s very awkward for her to stay here with me.”

“What’s there to be embarrassed about? We grew up together. Ah Jiu can’t take care of her right now. Why Don’t you help him take care of her first?”

“I say, you...”

Huo Sikai was halfway through his sentence when he looked up and saw a flashy and domineering military off-road vehicle parked outside the villa.

He immediately stopped. Then, he saw Leng Jiao, who was dressed in a camouflage uniform, get out of the car.

At that moment, he couldn’t help but gape. His eyes were as wide as copper bells.

“Why aren’t you continuing?”

Shi Beiyu, who was on the other end of the phone, heard that Huo Sikai had stopped speaking halfway. After waiting for a while, he couldn’t help but ask.

Huo sikai said in surprise, “I’m hallucinating.”

“What?”

“That’s all for now.”

After saying this, he stared at Leng Jiao, who was getting closer and closer, and hung up the phone.

Last time, when Leng Jiao was determined to leave, Huo Sikai felt quite uncomfortable. During this period of time, he couldn’t help but think of Leng Jiao’s miserable but stubborn back when she left.

Sometimes, when he slept at night, he would even dream of her covered in injuries, but she would grit her teeth and not say a word.

He did not know when it started, but Leng Jiao had changed.

She became patient, silent, no longer thick-skinned, and no longer chased after him.

Even her phone calls and messages were no longer there.

Only then did he realize that he was not used to the days without her pestering him.

Now that Leng Jiao suddenly appeared in front of him, he actually felt like he was dreaming.

This feeling was very subtle.
