Chuanbei Jing residence…

Before the report came out, Xu Yuanfei wanted to come to the Jing residence to ask for a few more crabs. The reason was simple. Her gluttonous brother wanted to eat them, and he even said that he would contact this customer to ask where he had bought them. It didn’t matter if he spent some money.

Xu Yuanfei naturally couldn’t tell him that he was eating the Jing family’s crabs, so she could only contact Jing Hanchuan alone.

At around nine o’clock, the two of them met. The crabs had already been fished out and placed in a basket.

“I’ll get someone to clean them and tie them up with a rope for you. You can bring back back directly.” Jing Hanchuan hadn’t looked for her yet, but he didn’t expect her to take the initiative to come to him again.

“Thank you.” Xu Yuanfei felt embarrassed to come to his house to eat and bring some back. Just as she was about to ask if she should give him some money, Jing Hanchuan changed the topic.

“Do you want to see some photos?”

“Photos?”

“Didn’t you say you wanted to see last time?”

“Okay.” It was morning, and the store wasn’t busy, so Xu Yuanfei had plenty of time.

She followed Jing Hanchuan to a dark room. When the door opened, she smelled an indescribable, strange smell. It was very dark inside, and there was only a small night lamp swaying, giving off a claustrophobic and dark negative feeling.

“This is the smell of the photography fluid.”

“Oh.” Xu Yuanfei rubbed her nose and subconsciously followed him. But it was too dark in front, so she didn’t know where to step. She missed a step. “Ah…”

Her body staggered, lost its center of gravity, and fell forward.

Jing Hanchuan turned around and subconsciously reached out to grab her arm. But she bumped into his embrace. Her hands instinctively sought support as she gripped the clothes at his waist tightly.

She took two deep breaths with lingering fear.

Her hot and humid breathing passed through his clothes and landed on his heart, making it a little dry.

“There are steps.” Jing Hanchuan’s fingers held her arm, and his voice became deeper. “I forgot to remind you.”

He lowered his head and spoke. His breathing was very soft and even a little cold. There was also a slight chill inside.

“It’s a little dark here. You might not be used to it since you just came in.”

Only then did Xu Yuanfei notice that her entire body was leaning on him. He was tall and thin, and he was always used to wearing loose clothes. But when he was so close, she could feel the firm muscle lines on his body.

His steady and strong heartbeat had a vigorous tension, making her heart beat wildly.

“It’s alright.” Xu Yuanfei stepped back slightly. Her heel pressed against the steps, and there was no way back.

“Be careful.”

Xu Yuanfei nodded with a red face.

The two of them separated. Jing Hanchuan took two steps in and turned on the lights. There were all kinds of photos hanging in the small dark room of a few square meters. There was also various photography equipment displayed on a cabinet at the side. There were also many tools for developing photos. She could tell that they were very professional.

I heard that photography burns money. There’s also the competition goldfish. How much money does he spend?

She inexplicably remembered her father complaining that he was unemployed.

Just as Xu Yuanfei was about to move forward, she realized that she had sprained her ankle. She endured the pain and felt a little annoyed.

I usually exercise all the time, so this shouldn’t have happened. Why did I sprain my ankle at this critical moment?

Jing Hanchuan’s gaze seemed to fall on her. “I’m going out for a bit. Take a look around.”

“Okay.”

As soon as Jing Hanchuan went out, she found a chair and sat down. She took off her cotton socks and prepared to observe her ankle. Little did she expect that in less than a minute, he had already returned with a tube of ointment in his hand.

“Sprain?”

“Yes.” Xu Yuanfei felt a little embarrassed. “Erm, I’ll do it myself.”

Jing Hanchuan didn’t say anything and half-squatted in front of her. But…

Let him apply medicine to me?

As long as Xu Yuanfei thought of certain scenes, her breathing became hot. While she was in a daze, Jing Hanchuan had already grabbed her ankle.

There was a thin red string tied around her ankle, looping through the middle of a small copper coin the size of a rice grain. It hung around her ankle, complementing it very well.

Only then did Jing Hanchuan notice that the sock on her other foot was actually a moose pattern. He couldn’t help smiling.

Xu Yuanfei: “…”

She didn’t know what to do. She only felt that his palm was very hot, but his fingertips were very cold. They were rubbing gently on her instep, seemingly checking her condition.

Every cell in her body was screaming and trembling, and her foot subconsciously arched.
