Chapter 2106: Chapter 2108: Jiang Nuan vs. Fu Yi
She had just sat down for afternoon tea when Jiang Nuan received a text message from someone as expected.
[What are you doing?]
[Drinking water.]
[Are you outside? With whom?]
Jiang Nuan raised an eyebrow, wondering if he was being too nosy, but her fingers flew across the phone, instantly replying.
[Grandma. Weāre out shopping.]
Her eye caught the shopping bags nearby. After a moment of thought, she started typing another message in the chat box but hadnāt sent it.
His message came over first.
[Finish your tea and wait for me at the first bench outside the square next to Changāan Street.]
Wait for him?
Isnāt he in Hechuan County?
Jiang Nuan frowned, deleted the āI have a surprise for youā she had typed earlier, and replaced it with.
[Youāre back?]
[You said there was too much to do in Hechuan County, and you wouldnāt be back for another nine days?]
Her message vanished into the void, with no response.
Jiang Nuan was restless, itching to call and ask, but after thinking it over, she decided against it. Since Fu Yi texted instead of calling her like he used to, it meant he couldnāt call right now. If he were in a meeting, calling him would be awkward.
Her mind was preoccupied, and the milk tea on the table lost its flavor.
Old Madam Fu noticed she had been absent-minded since she began using her phone. Sipping her tea, she calmly asked, "Whatās wrong? Did something happen? Who are you texting?"
Jiang Nuan, burdened with thoughts, looked up and didnāt deceive her, "Fu Yi texted me asking me to wait for him at the first bench outside the square on Changāan Street, but heās in Hechuan County. I donāt know why he wants me to go there. I texted him, but he didnāt reply or tell me when exactly to go. Iām wondering when I should head over."
"He texted you and asked you to go there?"
"Yes."
The cheeky boy, pretty quick!
Old Madam Fu said with a grin, "Why donāt you head over now? If heās asked, he might almost be there."
Jiang Nuan glanced at the cufflinks she placed aside, torn between wanting to go and reluctance to leave her halfway, looking conflicted, "What about you, Grandma?"
"Me?"
Old Madam Fu chuckled, waving her hand, amused, "I can go home on my own. Iām old enough; you donāt need to worry about me. Rest assured, thereās someone with me, and thereās a doctor too, so nothing will happen. You go ahead, Iām tired from shopping and plan to take a nap."
Seeing that she really had a doctor, a butler, and a chauffeur with her, Jiang Nuan relaxed a bit and didnāt hesitate, agreeing, "Okay, Grandma, Iāll go and be back soon."
She wanted to see what that person was up to, asking her to go to Changāan Streetāhad he really sneaked back?
Jiang Nuanās heart inexplicably beat faster, her face warmed up, as she stood up, slung her bag over her shoulder, grabbed the shopping bag, and told Old Madam Fu, "Grandma, Iām leaving now."
"Do you want the driver to take you?"
Jiang Nuan looked outside; the sun was shining brightly, a rare good weather day. She shook her head and declined, "No need, Iāll go by myself. Changāan Street is just one street away. I want to enjoy the breeze and take a stroll."
Old Madam Fu didnāt insist, her expression relaxed, "Alright then, be careful on the way."
"Goodbye, Grandma."
Old Madam Fu covered her mouth, laughing, growing increasingly fond of her, waving, "Goodbye."
After Jiang Nuan left, she got up and sighed to the butler beside her, "Hope that cheeky boy can win Nuannuan back this time."
The butler, sharing her sentiment, supported her arm, coaxing her happily, "Young Master will surely win her back!"
"Thatās good." Bewitched by the thought, her face lit up, checking the time, she said, "Letās go, Nuannuan has left, we should head home too!"
"Yes, madam."
