Chapter 1078 - Nearing the End of the War (1/2)

It was the third time Xia Shiyu looked at the clock on the wall. She let out a sigh and muttered to herself, “Why are they still not back? ”

Half an hour ago, Ayesha drove to the airport to pick up Jiang Chen, so she took a shower.

It was summer, and the weather was hot. After the shower, Xia Shiyu did not immediately change. Instead, she wrapped her wet hair in a towel and sat on the sofa in the living room with her bath towel draped around her body.

Xia Shiyu fantasized about the way Jiang Chen would look at her, blushing and breathing heavily; a smile formed on her face.

Suddenly, she realized that she the naughty things playing out in her head and she blushed. With the heat on her face, she coughed and tightened her fists. She took a deep breath and adjusted herself before turning back to a fresh but quiet look.

Only the eyes that couldn’t stop searching for someone and the love inside her pupils exposed her anxiousness.

The clock ticked and tocked; it was already one.

As she looked at the clock on the wall one more time, Xia Shiyu was no longer calm and began to worry.

“Could it be a traffic jam… Impossible, how is the maglev car stuck? Are they in an accident?”

Xia Shiyu couldn’t sit still any longer. She quickly picked up the phone and called Jiang Chen.

The phone rang for a while and no one answered.

Then she called Ayesha but her phone was off.

Xia Shiyu started to get nervous.

Just as she got up and was going to change to take a look outside, she finally heard the sound of door opening. The light flickered and the familiar Luer entered the garage. Soon, the two walked in. Seeing that the two return safely, Xia Shiyu was relieved and walked forward. She pouted and protested to Jiang Chen.

“Why are you back so late?”

Jiang Chen smiled embarrassedly. “Got stuck on the road for a while, why are you not asleep yet?”

Xia Shiyu looked at Jiang Chen with a suspicious look.

No, if he is normal, then he will definitely have an unnatural reaction when he sees me wrapped in a bath towel. He is too calm now?

She didn’t know that Jiang Chen just shot four consecutive bursts and was in the Sage Mode (1) at this moment. Even if she was having a bubble bath with him, he wouldn’t have any reaction!

Jiang Chen didn’t realize why Xia Shiyu felt strange. He felt somewhat uneasy being examined by her look of suspicion. He touched his face and whispered.

“Is there something on my face?”

Xia Shiyu shook her head and then looked at Ayesha.

Ayesha blushed, and dodged her eyes.

Jiang Chen suddenly realized and thought.

This is not good.

Sure enough, Xia Shiyu immediately understood. With a grin, she walked to Jiang Chen and “gently” grabbed his arm.

“There is something on your face, I’ll help you.”

The fragrance of lilacs sneaked into Jiang Chen’s nose, and he saw her wet hair was covered with a layer of fine mist. Looking down at the beautiful face, it was whiteness that led to a seductive deepness. Jiang Chen finally reacted both in happiness and pain.

“There are a lot of things,” carefully examining Jiang Chen’s face, Xia Shiyu nodded. With a jealous look, Xia Shiyu stared at Ayesha, but the “wicked”smile did not change. “Let’s go upstairs, let me help you carefully clean the stuff out~”

Xia Shiyu grabbed the bath towel across her chest with one hand while she grabbed Jiang Chen arm’s with the other and marched upstairs.

Jiang Chen didn’t know whether to cry or laugh, which made Ayesha somewhat distressed. However, the little girl silently mourned for him for just a second before running to the upstairs bathroom, hymning a tune.

Coro’s summer was very hot, and she felt sticky. She couldn’t wait to take a shower and then have a great night of sleep.

…

Jiang Chen didn’t wake up until noon, rubbing his weary eyes.
