The Time-Limited Love and Marriage
Chapter 143

Chapter 143: Chapter 143

The same night, Fu Youhan returned to Tianqin Bay planning to freshen up.

Just as he took off his suit jacket, he saw Jiang Moxi standing at the doorway.

She had also just come home from work and had taken a shower.

She was wearing an oversized T-shirt and her hair was still damp.

Her captivating eyes stared at him, clearly indicating she had something to say.

"Do you want to explain? Or do you want to disguise?"

Fu Youhan slowly walked forward and pinched Jiang Moxi’s delicate chin.

At such close distance, Jiang Moxi could clearly see her own reflection in the depths of Fu Youhan’s eyes.

Her face and her eyes both displayed evident panic.

It turns out, Fu Youhan had guessed she had no intention of telling the truth but just planned to fabricate a lie to appease him.

Indeed, being such a smart man with meticulous thoughts, how could he not see through it?

After locking eyes with the man for over ten seconds, Jiang Moxi finally spoke.

"I don’t plan to explain, nor do I intend to deceive you! Just know that I haven’t done anything against our agreement."

Since she couldn’t confess, she decided to clearly state her position.

Whether Fu Youhan believed it or not, that was all she could do.

Jiang Moxi looked openly at Fu Youhan.

Fu Youhan’s deep, unfathomable eyes remained firmly fixed on her.

He actually felt that Jiang Moxi’s words still had an element of teasing him.

But seeing her indifferent expression, he felt as if the cloud that had been looming over him all day had dissipated.

He didn’t know how to express this feeling, so he simply released his grip on Jiang Moxi’s delicate chin and instead tightly wrapped his arms around her waist.

This sudden action drew Jiang Moxi into his embrace, leaving her conspicuously baffled.

Under her slightly panicked and perplexed gaze, Fu Youhan softly parted his lips: "You, you seem to really have me figured out."

Because of that text message, his mood had been off all day.

Yet, her casual remark made him, Fu Youhan, choose to believe and felt a sudden clarity.

Perhaps what he wanted from the beginning wasn’t an explanation, but just a precise statement from her.

As long as she said no, he would believe.

Fu Youhan really didn’t know why he had become like this, but the feeling somehow didn’t seem bad.

Jiang Moxi still looked confused, seemingly puzzled by his out-of-character response.

But truthfully, Fu Youhan didn’t know how to explain all this either.

So he simply leaned down and kissed her, turning all his inner turmoil and bizarre happiness into action...

The next morning, when Jiang Moxi woke up, she found that Fu Youhan was still lying beside her.

And his long arms and legs still tightly entwined her.

An inexplicable sweetness swept over her heart.

Jiang Moxi, looking at the man’s perfect features softened by sleep, couldn’t help but reach out with her fingers, gently touching his brows and eyes.

But just as she touched them briefly, her fingers were caught.

The next second, Fu Youhan flipped her beneath him before opening his dark eyes.

"Good morning," the man said as he opened his eyes, greeting Jiang Moxi.

Jiang Moxi noticed the smile in his eyes, which wasn’t there before, and ripples stirred in her heart.

But what she didn’t expect was, right after he said good morning, his kiss also descended.

And after that, things became uncontrollable...

When everything ended, Fu Youhan still held her as they went to the bathroom to freshen up, helped her get dressed, and personally took her to school.

Jiang Moxi could feel their relationship was quietly changing.

The sweetness inside her heart was growing wildly.

But at the same time, the unease inside her heart was not diminishing.

Because she was unsure when Feng Ming would wake up, and she was also unsure how long they could continue living happily together...

In the evening, when Jiang Moxi went to her part-time job at Night Color, she received a message.

Inside the private room on the ninth floor, Jiang Moxi served drinks and casually asked Ye Chen, "Isn’t Dingding coming tonight?"

Ye Chen told Jiang Moxi: "Dingding won’t be working at Night Color anymore."

This statement surprised both Jiang Moxi and Fu Youhan, who were also in the private room.

However, Jiang Moxi just frowned slightly and looked at Ye Chen.

Whereas Fu Youhan was more straightforward, teasing Ye Chen: "Finally made up your mind?"

"Yep, my baby is a good girl, naturally, I can’t let her stay in such a place anymore," Ye Chen said.

Jiang Moxi felt that this decision was good for Yu Dingding.

But she couldn’t help asking Ye Chen, "What about Dingding’s debts?"

"The debts I will naturally have waived. But to teach her a skill to survive, I plan to bring her to my side to learn first."

Ye Chen started planning to erase all traces of Yu Dingding’s past in Night Color, including the idea of living with her for a lifetime.

So he planned to arrange for Yu Dingding to be his secretary first, and later justify it as her dealing with financial matters at Night Color every day.

Then, after some time, he planned to send Yu Dingding abroad for further studies.

By the time she returned, her tarnished reputation would have been mostly cleansed.

But Ye Chen didn’t expect that just after he finished speaking, Fu Youhan teasingly said: "You’re bringing her to your side to learn? To learn how you slack off every day?"

Ye Chen was almost amused to anger: "Is this how you reveal your brother’s secrets?"

Yes, the Ye Family owns many companies.

Ye Chen, the only heir of the Ye Family, his daily task was to slack off and sweet-talk in various big companies.

Therefore, Fu Youhan couldn’t help but laugh out loud when he heard that he intended to teach Yu Dingding a skill.

"Anyway, it’s decided like this. Moxi, when you have time help me persuade Dingding to... forgive me soon."

Ye Chen’s last few words left Fu Youhan and Jiang Moxi looking at each other in surprise.

"Did you make her angry again?" Jiang Moxi couldn’t help but directly ask.

"Not really, just did something pretty messed up," Ye Chen recollected last night, feeling both sweet and self-reproachful.

Had he known it was Yu Dingding’s first time, he would not have started so hastily.

But if he hadn’t started, how could he have known that Yu Dingding was still such a pure and good girl...

Jiang Moxi always felt that Ye Chen’s words had more to them, but it didn’t seem right to ask too much, so she decided to leave the private room first.

However, as she passed by Fu Youhan, he grabbed her hand.

Jiang Moxi turned back in surprise, Fu Youhan was looking at her with a light smile.

"Let’s go back together later."

His tone was no different from usual, but his eyes staring at her surged with a mix of other emotions.

Actually, they hadn’t done less intimate things than holding hands.

But with Ye Chen’s gossiping gaze watching them tug and pull, Jiang Moxi felt like her ears were about to emit smoke.

"Got it," Jiang Moxi said, and quickly withdrew her hand, quickly leaving the private room.

As soon as Jiang Moxi left, Ye Chen asked Fu Youhan: "Did she clarify to you that she has no other guys outside?"

"No," Fu Youhan said.

Ye Chen looked incredulous: "No? How can your relationship progress so fast then?"

"Actually, when bored, playing with emotions isn’t such a bad thing..." Fu Youhan said.

"You admit it’s emotions now?" Ye Chen raised an eyebrow.
