Chapter 1694: Still Alive

Nan Jiaojiao punched his chest, muttering, “Can’t you be satisfied? If you keep messing with me, I’ll beat you up!”

He chuckled softly, “My darling…”

“I really will beat you…”

Bo Yanching kissed her again, “Alright, I won’t bother you. Sleep.”

Nan Jiaojiao didn’t even bother to open her eyes. She was half-asleep and very drowsy, and talking to him felt like she was talking in her sleep. She was naturally impatient about being disturbed while sleeping, and even in this state, she didn’t hesitate to show her anger. So she simply turned over in his arms, facing away from him with the back of her head.

Bo Yanching stopped bothering her, but his mood couldn’t settle for a long time.

He waited and waited, unable to sleep again, instead becoming more awake, and he wanted to talk to her.

“My darling…”

Nan Jiaojiao threw a punch over.

He dodged quickly, catching her fist in his palm, comparing the angle. Goodness, she was aiming for his eye!

Bo Yanching was about to play the weakling, but he heard her breathing.

This little girl is truly ruthless.

Even in sleep, she’s plotting to murder her husband.

Bo Yanching paused for a moment, feeling her fist gradually relax in his palm, the tension easing off her hand as it dropped down, so he followed her motion, helping her tuck her hand back under the blanket.

He thought about not disturbing her, but he couldn’t resist kissing her cheek.

Staying away from her ear, he whispered, “My darling, Yaen Chi is still alive! I’m quite happy.”

Nan Jiaojiao only found out about this the next day and complained why Bo Yanching didn’t tell her immediately.

At that time, Bo Yanching gave her a look that made Nan Jiaojiao feel instant shame.

She pursed her lips, scooped a spoonful of porridge, placed a shrimp on it, and before spooning it into her mouth, she suddenly remembered to ask, “You just told me this, is it okay?”

“You’re a part of me, and you’re worried about Yaen Chi too.”

“What about Mo Tingshen and the others?”

“Yaen Chi didn’t want me to tell them, so I didn’t.”

Nan Jiaojiao kept feeling like his underlying message was “they’re not worthy.”

She felt like she accidentally stumbled upon a big secret, feeling quite anxious. Yaen Chi’s whereabouts were so secretive, he contacted only Bo Yanching once he was safe, and Bo Yanching immediately turned around and told her.

She sighed wistfully, “If you were born in ancient times, you’d definitely be a deluded ruler blinded by beauty, causing harm to many loyal generals.”

Bo Yanching disagreed, “Can’t I be blinded by beauty in the modern era because of you?”

“…Two different ideas, alright?”

“One idea.”

Bo Yanching added, “Be a bit more confident in your looks; bewitching me so utterly that I get dizzy is understandable.”

“You really are something…”

Nan Jiaojiao gave him a thumbs up.

Quite good at pinpointing the crux!

Later, Nan Jiaojiao didn’t ask whether Bo Yanching told Mo Tingshen and the others, knowing they’re all quite capable, and if anything really happened, they wouldn’t need her.

Nan Jiaojiao continued her routine between home and work, and the three locations involved with her drama production.

Since Mo Tingshen called off his engagement, the Qiao Family kept a low profile. Even Mrs. Qiao, who loved to show off, hadn’t appeared in the wealthy lady circles for quite a while. Nan Jiaojiao once had a chance encounter with Qiao Man.

That day, she went to the E.Y store branch to adjust the inventory, and after counting, as she waited for the stock to arrive, Su Miaotong was also there. With nothing needed from her at the moment, Nan Jiaojiao went to the café.

It was there she happened to run into Qiao Man, who was sitting across from a man dressed in a suit with an upright posture, thick hair, and a pair of glasses perched on his nose, sporting a very handsome and gentle appearance.

Nan Jiaojiao didn’t go over to greet them, but Qiao Man noticed her, their eyes met briefly. Qiao Man was slightly startled, then smiled and nodded at her.
