183: Chapter 183: A Morning Without Breakfast 183: Chapter 183: A Morning Without Breakfast Ning Xiaolu suddenly lay there and tightly embraced Xiang Yu’s neck.

Then, she bit down hard on Xiang Yu’s shoulder, a bite that surely made Xiang Yu inhale sharply.

It would probably leave another scar on his body.

From initial tension and pain to the eventual ease, both of them had undergone a transformation through a storm of change.

Today, not only had Xiang Yu saved her, but he had also avenged her, leaving her with no regrets in this life.

She had nothing with which she could repay Xiang Yu, except to give him the most important thing she could offer.

For a moment, she truly wanted to stay by Xiang Yu’s side, to quietly watch over him and feel blissfully happy.

“Thank you,” Ning Xiaolu suddenly said.

Xiang Yu shook his head but didn’t speak.

“Do I look pretty?” Ning Xiaolu suddenly asked.

Xiang Yu nodded.

Indeed, Ning Xiaolu looked beautiful; her face was graced with a faint blush, making her appear very lovely and charming.

Before, she had always kept a cold distance, and Xiang Yu never imagined he would be this close to her.

Ning Xiaolu then fell silent and lay in Xiang Yu’s arms, both of them quiet.

Xiang Yu eventually drifted off into a deep sleep, unaware of the time.

He slept soundly, without any dreams, only to be awakened by knocks on the door in the morning.

Xiang Yu was sleeping sweetly when he heard someone knocking.

He was too lazy to care and simply continued to sleep heavily.

In his haze, he suddenly heard someone barge in, causing a jolt of alarm within him.

It must be Long Wu coming to wake him up.

As this thought crossed his mind, Xiang Yu bolted upright in bed.

There was Long Wu, her face as cold as ice, her eyes seeming to spit fire as she left without a word, slamming the door behind her.

Xiang Yu was still trying to grasp what had happened.

To his understanding, he had reacted well, preparing to get out of bed as soon as she arrived.

Maybe she thought he was still sleepy and should rest more?

But her fiery gaze suggested otherwise.

That’s when Xiang Yu realized he was sitting there naked.

Looking at the bed, he noticed a pool of blood and under the bed, a torn, bright red…

A wave of realization hit Xiang Yu—last night’s events suddenly came back crystal clear.

Where was Ning Xiaolu?

He scanned the room but didn’t find her anywhere.

She must have left while he was deep asleep.

The scent of shower gel still lingered in the air, making his face burn even hotter.

Long Wu must have noticed something when she came in.

With that thought, Xiang Yu had no more desire to sleep and quickly got dressed and got up.

Stepping outside, he noticed everyone’s gazes were strangely fixed on him.

“What are you looking at?

Why aren’t you going to eat?” Xiang Yu asked Shi Jian.

“Eat what?” Shi Jian replied helplessly from his seat on the couch.

Xiang Yu then realized that Long Wu hadn’t cooked today, nor was she around.

“Where are they?” Xiang Yu asked.

“Ning Xiaolu came downstairs earlier and went straight out.

I don’t know what you did to upset her.

We haven’t seen Ning Xiaolu this morning either; no clue where she went,” Shi Jian said with a suspicious look at Xiang Yu.

From Shi Jian’s tone, Xiang Yu breathed a sigh of relief internally—they only suspected but knew nothing about what had happened.

And Long Wu, who knew, would surely not tell.

As they were discussing where to have breakfast, Lan Tingting suddenly called.

She informed Xiang Yu that Ning Xiaolu had packed up her things and left, saying she would never return.

Xiang Yu wasn’t surprised upon hearing this; Ning Xiaolu had taken her revenge, and staying in this city would only increase her sadness.

Ning Xiaolu knew she and Xiang Yu were from completely different worlds; it was impossible for them to be together, and so she chose to leave.

Just as Xiang Yu hung up the phone, Long Wu walked back in from outside.

She didn’t look at anyone and went straight to the kitchen to start cooking on her own.

Shi Jian and the others exchanged glances but remained silent.

Within minutes, Long Wu announced that the meal was ready.

Everyone was famished and hurried to eat.

Although Xiang Yu felt awkward in front of Long Wu, his growling stomach left him no choice but to join them for breakfast, albeit reluctantly.

But before he could start, Long Wu quickly cleared away the utensils in front of him.

“You can’t eat,” Long Wu said sternly and then sat down to eat without giving him another glance.

Shi Jian and the others kept quiet, bowing their heads and continuing to eat.

Xiang Yu stood up awkwardly, then slapped Shi Jian and Tie Zhuzi on the head before leaving, filled with frustration.

There was no choice, Xiang Yu had to go hungry that morning.

Although Shi Jian and the others didn’t know what Xiang Yu had done to offend Long Wu, they were sure it had something to do with Ning Xiaolu, seeing as she had left without saying goodbye that morning.

After a night of commotion, Ding Yongzhi had been taken care of by Xiang Yu, yet he had a brother.

According to what Ding Yongzhi had said, this brother was not to be underestimated and would surely investigate the matter…
