Chapter 1393: Chapter 1393: The Road Under Moonlight

Zheng Xueyun didn’t look down on Jiang Guangrong’s tears. If a man truly cries in front of a woman, it means he’s close to breaking down. Tears also show a man’s true character.

Zheng Xueyun gently patted Jiang Guangrong’s back with her left hand and touched his hair with her right hand, comforting him in a soft voice: "It’s okay, it’s fine. She followed Xiao Zheng down a path with no return. Aren’t the underground people ready at any time? Get some good rest, sleep, and wake up in the morning. By the way, your brother Rongguang is having a day off tomorrow. He has winter break. He has been admitted to City First University. Can you pick him up? Take the chance to relax a bit."

"I’m a hangman transformed..." Jiang Guangrong couldn’t stop his tears, his entire mind a blank, speaking incoherently.

"Alright, it’s okay..." Zheng Xueyun patiently patted Jiang Guangrong’s back, comforting him like a child.

After a while, Jiang Guangrong suddenly leaned against Zheng Xueyun. Zheng Xueyun couldn’t help but laugh. Jiang Guangrong was actually hugging her and fell asleep.

Since childhood, Zheng Xueyun has crawled on the ground, possessing good skills and strength. She tightly held Jiang Guangrong, carefully moving him to the sofa. Zheng Xueyun’s movements were gentle, afraid of waking Jiang Guangrong. She let Jiang Guangrong sleep peacefully on the sofa.

Looking at Jiang Guangrong’s face, still pained even in his sleep, Zheng Xueyun couldn’t help but feel a bit of inexplicable heartache.

In the morning, the phone ringing quickly woke Jiang Guangrong up. He picked up the phone, still drowsy. "Hello?"

"Brother! It’s me!"

"Guang?!" Jiang Guangrong suddenly woke up.

"Brother, I’m on winter break today! Can you pick me up from school?"

Hearing Rongguang’s eager voice, Jiang Guangrong smiled, "But I’m very busy..."

"Oh... alright..." Though Rongguang said nothing more, his tone was tinged with disappointment.

Jiang Guangrong held back laughter, saying intentionally, "Unless you treat me to a Coke!"

"Brother..." Rongguang’s dissatisfied voice came through.

"What’s up?"

"You’re so capable. You must be great at picking up girls! Hahaha!"

"Damn, you brat, huh? How dare you laugh at me? Wait, I’ll handle you later!"

"Hahaha, brother, will you really fix me up?"

"If I don’t knock you out, I’ll tell you my surname!"

"Haha, that’s great. I can leave by 2 in the afternoon. So you can wait for me at the school gates!"

"Okay!"

After hanging up Rongguang’s phone, Jiang Guangrong couldn’t help but stretch lazily. Suddenly, Jiang Guangrong realized he was wearing a woman’s coat. He looked at the coat and confirmed it was Zheng Xueyun’s. Last night’s events suddenly flooded Jiang Guangrong’s mind.

Jiang Guangrong stretched his arms and continued drawing. He couldn’t help but shiver, "Damn, holding old lady last night..."

Jiang Guangrong glanced at the clock. It was now 7 in the morning. Zheng Xueyun hadn’t come to the office at this time. Jiang Guangrong hurriedly carried Zheng Xueyun’s coat out of the office, wanting to return it secretly before she arrived.

Jiang Guangrong just reached Zheng Xueyun’s office, quietly pushing open the door when God wanted him to return the coat. Suddenly, the office door opened from inside.

Zheng Xueyun stretched lazily, "Good morning, Guangrong."

Jiang Guangrong blushed, hiding the coat behind him, "Good morning, miss..."

"What’s wrong?" Zheng Xueyun seemed to notice Jiang Guangrong’s dilemma.

"Forehead..."

"Good morning, miss, good morning, Guangrong!" Zhao Junkai approached them.

"Good morning, Junkai."

"Forehead?" Zhao Junkai suddenly noticed the coat Jiang Guangrong was hiding behind him, belonging to Zheng Xueyun. Zhao Junkai’s handsome face was filled with surprise.

A moment later, Zhao Junkai responded, looking at the coatless Zheng Xueyun and Jiang Guangrong, blushing as if caught stealing. Finally, Zhao Junkai covered his eyes like a ghost, rubbing his white hair, "I didn’t sleep well this morning..."

Zhao Junkai quickly slipped away, with Zheng Xueyun spotting Jiang Guangrong’s coat behind him.

Both Jiang Guangrong and Zheng Xueyun felt embarrassed.

After a moment, Jiang Guangrong broke the awkward silence, "Miss, I’d like to take a leave today. My brother is on winter break, and I’d like to pick him up. After all, I haven’t seen him for over a year!"

"Hmm." Zheng Xueyun forced a calm, nodding, "Yes, go ahead!"

"Thank you very much, miss. I’m sorry about yesterday, I..."

"I know." Zheng Xueyun suddenly smiled.

Zheng Xueyun’s smile left Jiang Guangrong more puzzled about her thoughts. He handed the coat to Zheng Xueyun, "This coat is yours now, unless you want me to wash it and return it..."

Zheng Xueyun wore a calm expression, "Throw it away..."

"Ah?!" Jiang Guangrong was dumbfounded.

"Ah? Oh, no, no, no need, I’ll... I’ll myself..." Zheng Xueyun grabbed the coat and rushed into the room, slamming the door.

Jiang Guangrong scratched his head, staring blankly at the closed door.

Just then, Zhong Botao arrived, "Good morning, Guangrong!"

"Good morning, Brother Botao!" Jiang Guangrong saw Zhong Botao and suddenly remembered something, smiling slyly.

Zhong Botao shivered, "Why are you looking at me like that, kid?"

"Hey, Brother Botao, can I borrow your car this afternoon? My brother is on winter break today, and I want to pick him up?"

"Alright, the car is parked in zone A’s parking lot! I might use the car tonight. Go ahead and take it!" Zhong Botao said generously, tossing the car keys to Jiang Guangrong.

Jiang Guangrong caught the keys easily, "Thanks, Brother Botao!"

Soon, Jiang Guangrong drove Zhong Botao’s car to his rundown home. All morning, he meticulously cleaned the house.

After a busy morning, Jiang Guangrong checked the time. It was already 12:30 PM. Jiang Guangrong bought a little food casually and ate it. After lunch, he rushed to Chaoyang and City First University.

It was just 1:30 PM, and Rongguang hadn’t officially started his break yet. Jiang Guangrong parked his car on the campus of City First University, wandering around. In years past, he had roamed naively for a while. Jiang Guangrong sat on a stone bench in the greenery near the campus gate, patiently waiting for Rongguang’s holiday.

Suddenly, a little girl came walking from a distance, likely a student from this school. She waved towards him.

Jiang Guangrong lowered his head, ignoring the girl. Jiang Guangrong didn’t recognize the girl before him. Of course, Jiang Guangrong didn’t think he had so much charm that a stranger would have such interest in him.

The girl waved again, then approached Jiang Guangrong. She greeted him with a smile, "Hi!"

Jiang Guangrong was stunned, looking around to his left and right. After confirming there was no one else behind, Jiang Guangrong pointed at himself with his right hand index finger, "Me?"

The girl’s reply amused her, then she covered her mouth laughing, "If not talking to you, then talking to ghosts? In daylight, ghosts don’t dare to appear!"

Jiang Guangrong was even more puzzled, "Sorry, miss, do we know each other?"

The girl looked at Jiang Guangrong in surprise, "You don’t recognize me?"

Jiang Guangrong couldn’t help but laugh, "Miss, why would I know you?"

"Did you forget? You said you’re the Northern Wolf or a wolf!"

"What’s Northern Wolf and Southern Wolf? What are these messes? Did you mistake me for someone else?" Jiang Guangrong frowned. Did the girl mistake someone? What’s up with your head? Unfortunately, his brain couldn’t work when he was young.

Thinking this, Jiang Guangrong couldn’t help but look at the young girl with sympathetic eyes. At this point, Jiang Guangrong examined the girl closely. She was about 20 years old, around 1.7 meters tall. Her hair at the back was dyed light blonde, with an oval face, large lively eyes, and a little elder. Jiang Guangrong couldn’t help but feel a bit surprised. The girl’s beauty even surpassed Miyamoto Keiko. She could be said to be the most beautiful girl he had ever encountered. But truly, even if her beauty stood out, her head had something wrong.
