My CEO Husband Has Some Issues

Chapter 1606: Chapter 1607: The Cui Family Gets Scared

A luxury home in Dihor Garden.

Rong Yan had been busy all day, finally managed to take a bath, played some games with Little Baby on the bed, coaxed him to sleep and just came out. She saw the man in casual home clothes placing his phone to his ear, engaged in a call. He seemed troubled, speaking to the person on the other end while pressing the sides of his nose with his hand.

After a moment, he ended the call and turned around.

Just then, he stumbled upon Rong Yan who was coming out, Li Shengxiao showed a look of surprise, his voice hoarse, “You’re not asleep yet?”

Seeing the frustration hidden in his brows, Rong Yan couldn’t help but ask, “Did something happen?”

Li Shengxiao put down the phone, rubbed his furrowed brows helplessly, and replied, “Cui Jiangjing somehow lost his mind and was racing on the Third Ring Road in the Capital City.”

“Uh?” Rong Yan didn’t know what expression to show, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, “Did he eat too much hot pot tonight? Midnight racing to relieve stress.”

The man strode into the living room, head aching terribly, “The key is, he’s not driving a car, he’s riding a motorcycle.”

“…”

“He was reckless for a while during high school, met many unsavory characters, some who got him into underground racing. Underground racing is about risking your life, and he just had to join in. That time, he fell off the vehicle, broke three ribs, and nearly lost his life. The ones who took him there realized they were in trouble and abandoned him at the entrance used for illegal racing; when Fu Yi and I found him, there was blood everywhere, he was nearly unconscious, we rushed him to the hospital, and he spent half a year recovering. After that incident, he stopped riding motorcycles; doctors said that incident left him with a psychological scar.”

Li Shengxiao furrowed his brows, clearly unable to fathom what was wrong with Cui Jiangjing, “A while ago, the traffic police noticed street racers at the intersection, and thought it was local delinquents, who knew it was him. They quickly contacted the Cui family, and the Cui family got scared and called me to ask what was going on.”

What’s going on?

Apart from thinking he might have eaten too much hot pot, Rong Yan couldn’t think of any other reason, feeling a headache coming on, she propped her chin, “How about calling him?”

The moment she spoke, she shook her head herself, “Better not. If he’s racing, calling now might distract him and be too dangerous.”

Li Shengxiao’s deep black eyes were obscurely dark, slightly narrowed, gazing out the window, “Could it be related to your friend?”

“My friend? You’re talking about Xixi?” Rong Yan was stunned for a moment, then blurted out, “No way, right?”

His jawline was taut, slightly lifting his chin, the smooth lines becoming more pronounced, as if carved, his eyes bright even in the dark night, fluctuating with an indescribable emotion. He reached out to gently tuck a loose strand of hair behind her ear, softly settling it behind her ear, “It’s possible. You could ask your friend. Cui Jiangjing appears carefree, but actually he’s more aware than anyone about what can and can’t be done. His odd behavior this time may be to achieve some goal. If it were about interest, the Cui family hasn’t reached the point where he’d risk his life to pursue it! Plus, the Cui family seemed utterly clueless when they called. If it’s not for interest, it can only be for feelings. He’s only been pursuing your friend during this time, maybe she knows what’s going on with him.”

His breath brushed against her ear, warm and tingling like a feather tickling, tickling her heart. Rong Yan’s ears suddenly blushed, she took a step back to distance herself from him, hurriedly said, “I’ll go ask Xixi.”
