Chapter 1384: Liu Xin'ai is moving away from him bit by bit
Harm... Xin'ai?
Qin Yiyan's reminder was still effective.
The light in Jiang Chenghao's eyes gradually dimmed.
He did not continue that dangerous topic from just a moment ago.
But Liu Xin'ai could sense what Jiang Chenghao was implying.
And that implication had a great deal to do with her.
Liu Xin'ai wanted to know the answer, so she closed her eyes and thought hard.
Then, in her mind... certain images appeared!
It was her and Qin Yiyan, the two of them... arguing! And shoving each other!!
The image was too terrifying; Liu Xin'ai opened her eyes immediately and gasped for air.
Because she was distracted, the box in her hand fell to the ground!
Hearing the commotion, both Qin Yiyan and Jiang Chenghao looked over.
Then they saw Liu Xin'ai standing there with a pale face.
Her eyes still held a look of helplessness.
"Xin'ai..."
Qin Yiyan gripped Liu Xin'ai's arm.
But Liu Xin'ai shook him off immediately.
The emptiness beneath his fingers made Qin Yiyan's heart ache fiercely.
Liu Xin'ai did not look at the two men opposite her.
She bent down to pick up the box, her voice filled with panic: "I don't want to see either of you right now, please both of you leave!"
After saying this, Liu Xin'ai hurried back to the Laboratory.
Qin Yiyan watched Liu Xin'ai's back, not knowing what she had... just thought of.
But what was certain was that Liu Xin'ai was moving away from him bit by bit!
This made Qin Yiyan's heart ache so much he could barely breathe!!
Upon seeing Jiang Chenghao, Qin Yiyan questioned him sternly again: "Can't you just let Xin'ai be happy for a while longer?"
"Heh, is it her who is happy, or you? I advise you, don't waste your efforts. No matter what methods you use now, the first thing Xin'ai will do after recovering her memory is to stay away from you!"
Jiang Chenghao left after saying this.
Only Qin Yiyan was left standing where he was, looking dejected.
But in reality...
Jiang Chenghao's mood was also terrible.
He knew that what he had done to Xiao'an was very scummy.
But...
He found that he couldn't control himself; he even felt that this version of himself was strange and detestable!
To relieve the depression in his heart, Jiang Chenghao went to a bar.
He sat alone in a private room, not saying a word, drinking glass after glass.
At the same time—
Xu Xiaoxiao was exhausted in both body and mind after a full day of seminars with her colleagues.
Someone suggested going to a bar to have some fun, and it was immediately met with agreement.
Because Xu Xiaoxiao had made a fool of herself drinking last time, she was a bit resistant to alcohol and didn't really want to go.
But helpless against her colleagues' enthusiasm, Xu Xiaoxiao went to the bar with everyone anyway.
Just a short while after drinking, while on her way to the restroom, Xu Xiaoxiao saw Jiang Chenghao's figure through the gap in a private room door.
At this moment, Jiang Chenghao was already swaying unsteadily, his cheeks were flushed red, and his tie had been pulled loose.
Xu Xiaoxiao had never seen Jiang Chenghao like this before; feeling a bit worried, she pushed open the door to the private room and walked in.
Once inside, she realized that Jiang Chenghao was the only one there.
Yet, by his feet, there were several empty wine bottles.
"My god, Jiang Chenghao, did you drink all of these? Are you trying to drink yourself straight into the Hospital?"
Hearing the voice, Jiang Chenghao lifted his eyelids and took a look.
However, he didn't seem to see clearly who the other person was, and instead picked up a bottle to keep pouring.
This way of drinking was too frightening; Xu Xiaoxiao snatched the bottle away and asked: "Tell me, what happened between you and Xin'ai again?"
Hearing Liu Xin'ai's name, Jiang Chenghao finally reacted and asked: "Why ask that?"
"The only one who can make you lose your composure like this is Xin'ai."
Heh, as expected of a psychology expert, she really knew how to observe.
Jiang Chenghao gave a mocking laugh, then swayed as he sat up straight, looked directly into Xu Xiaoxiao's eyes, and asked: "What do you think of me as a person?"
At this moment, Jiang Chenghao was drunk.
His eyes were unfocused, and his hair was a mess.
But for some reason... Xu Xiaoxiao's heartbeat suddenly became a bit erratic.
She swallowed involuntarily, then looked away, her voice drifting slightly: "... Not bad, I suppose."
"But I think I'm a real jerk, a total jerk!"
As he spoke, Jiang Chenghao slammed a glass onto the table with one hand.
The glass shattered at the sound, scaring Xu Xiaoxiao into quickly grabbing Jiang Chenghao's palm to check it carefully.
"Phew, good thing you didn't get pricked. I'm telling you, you're too reckless. If you had slashed your tendons on those shards, you would have..."
Before Xu Xiaoxiao could finish her nagging, Jiang Chenghao grabbed her wrist and pulled her in front of him.
"J-Jiang Chenghao?"
Jiang Chenghao's eyes were even more hazy as he leaned close to Xu Xiaoxiao and asked, "Xin'ai, are you very disappointed in me?"
So this guy had mistaken her for Liu Xin'ai.
Xu Xiaoxiao frowned slightly and corrected him, "I am not Liu Xin'ai!"
Jiang Chenghao acted as if he hadn't heard her; he even grabbed her shoulders, his voice strained: "I'm sorry, I didn't want to do those bastardly things either, I'm very disappointed in myself too! But I promise, this is the first time, and it's the last time. In the future, I definitely won't let you down. Give me one more chance, okay?"
The more Jiang Chenghao spoke, the more agitated he became.
Because of his agitation, his palms kept tightening, even pinching Xu Xiaoxiao's shoulders until they hurt.
Xu Xiaoxiao furrowed her brows tightly and reminded him, "Get a grip, I am not Xin'ai, I am..."
Before Xu Xiaoxiao could finish, Jiang Chenghao suddenly leaned his body forward.
And kissed Xu Xiaoxiao's lips!
In that instant, Xu Xiaoxiao felt a "Boom!" go off in her brain!
It was blown into a complete blank!
When she finally came to her senses, she slowly began to feel the warmth on her lips.
And the increasingly intense sense of aggression from Jiang Chenghao!
This made Xu Xiaoxiao panic.
She pushed Jiang Chenghao away with all her might, stood up, and ran!
Running outside the private room, Xu Xiaoxiao breathed rapidly.
She raised a hand to gently touch her lips, which had been kissed red, and murmured softly, "This is truly crazy!"
Xu Xiaoxiao shook her head vigorously, intending to leave this place.
But...
Xu Xiaoxiao did not leave after all; instead, she sent a message to her colleague saying she had to leave early, and then returned to the private room once more.
Jiang Chenghao in the private room was now completely unconscious.
Xu Xiaoxiao's task now was to send this drunkard home.
She forced herself to forget that scene from just a moment ago.
Then she used all her strength... to help Jiang Chenghao up.
This drunken man was truly very heavy!
Xu Xiaoxiao was panting from exhaustion!
Sigh, I really owe this guy!
When Jiang Chenghao woke up, it was already the next day.
His head was splitting with pain, and he only vaguely remembered being sent back by someone.
As for who it was... he couldn't quite remember.
Jiang Chenghao didn't mind either.
Instead, he called Liu Qingze to ask how Liu Xin'ai was doing.
Liu Qingze answered concisely: "Her state is very normal."
Jiang Chenghao, however, did not believe him, and knitting his brows, he asked, "Tell me the truth, what exactly happened to Xin'ai?"
