Chapter 63: Chapter 63: Far Exceeded Expectations!
During those seven days, he thought he had completely escaped from that chaotic and terrifying state.
But now it seemed he hadn’t.
Why was he so useless?
If Jiang Li found out, she would definitely despise him.
Jiang Shixu had already taken out the box of sleeping pills.
Looking at the two small white pills lying inside, his eyes fiercely stirred.
After struggling for a while, he put the pills back and lifted the blanket to get out of bed.
The villa was eerily quiet in the early morning, and it felt even colder following the departure of Jiang Li and Jiang Yan.
Barefoot, Jiang Shixu walked into the kitchen and blankly opened the refrigerator.
He really missed the meals Jiang Li cooked.
Unfortunately, the housekeeper couldn’t replicate that taste, so he hadn’t eaten much that day.
Jiang Li’s parting words echoed in his ears, and despite having no appetite, Jiang Shixu forcefully searched through the refrigerator.
Eventually, he picked a sandwich that looked decent.
The moment he took it out, a piece of paper fell to the floor.
The instant he saw the handwriting on it, Jiang Shixu recognized it as Jiang Li’s since it was identical to the writing she had displayed in her live streaming room.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly bent down to pick up the piece of paper.
The delicate and clear characters then came into his view.
“If you can’t sleep, go to my room. I’ve left something for you—Jiang Li.”
Jiang Shixu’s heart started to throb violently.
Without hesitation, he turned and ran up the stairs.
Jiang Li’s room door wasn’t locked and he easily opened it.
The moment the light switched on, he saw the interior.
It was classically elegant, every corner exceedingly refined with an incense burner and brush-ink-paper-inkstone set on the desk, and even the walls were adorned with landscape paintings.
It was clearly meticulously arranged by her.
The moment he stepped in, Jiang Shixu suddenly felt an indescribable sense of relief and pleasure.
The next second, his gaze fixed on the small red velvet box placed beside the incense burner.
That must be what Jiang Li had left for him.
Upon opening it, he found a small cassette tape.
Jiang Shixu went back to his room and rummaged for a long time before finding a dusty tape recorder in a corner.
After inserting the tape, a melodious piece of music flowed out.
It was the sound of a Guqin.
Although it was the most melodiously elegant instrument, Jiang Li played it as though it mimicked the rushing rivers and the setting sun over a myriad of streams.
Every note burst with an unusual sense of power.
Jiang Shixu was astounded.
This piece of music, like her entire persona, was radiant and powerful.
It instantly pulled him from his muddled world.
Could the infective power of music really be this strong?
Accompanied by the sounds of the Guqin, Jiang Shixu finished the entire sandwich, and then obediently went to lie down on his bed.
Jiang Li had gone to great lengths to prepare all this for him.
Then he must not fail to appreciate her kindness!
