Chapter 108: Peaceful Breakup
Jin Yuanyuan still didn’t understand.
They’d been doing this for so long with no issues, and every time they caught someone and sent them to Brother Ye, there was generous money to be made—one head was worth five thousand. As for what happened to the person after sending them over, that had nothing to do with them.
Wei Jin vaguely guessed these people’s fate. Though they weren’t good people, they were still human lives.
“Heh heh.” The man on the ground started struggling.
A pair of eyes bulged wide, spitting out a mouthful of blood foam from his mouth: “Our boss won’t let you go, Wei Jin. We’ve remembered you.”
Wei Jin couldn’t help laughing, lazily and roguishly: “Why remember me? I’m just following orders. The one treating you like piglets isn’t me, and the one killing the pigs isn’t me either. Don’t target the wrong person.”
Resentment brewed in the man’s eyes.
Wei Jin narrowed his eyes and kicked him, ordering: “You two send him over. He’s really an eyesore. I have something to do, I’m leaving first.”
Huzi was puzzled: “Where are you going? Aren’t you coming with to send him?”
There had been no accidents before, so Wei Jin wasn’t too worried: “I’m not going. I have a date. I don’t smell, do I?”
He sniffed his own clothes intensely, clicking his tongue in dissatisfaction: “Looks like I need to buy a bottle of perfume to keep on hand.”
Jin Yuanyuan: “…”
Huzi: “…”
The two were dumbfounded.
“Brother Jin, you wouldn’t really have fallen for Jiang Ning from Ninth Middle School, would you? I asked around—she’s really bad news. If you go licking her boots eagerly, she’ll just play you like a dog.” Huzi hurriedly advised.
But Wei Jin was certain: “No, she’s not that kind of person. Even if I willingly be her dog, she wouldn’t want it. What does that mean?”
The two in unison: “What?”
Wei Jin: “She has a kind heart. She’s a good person.”
The two: “…”
“But she said she spent money to buy a servant. That kind of talk is pretty insulting.”
Wei Jin didn’t care at all: “Young ladies always need servants when they go out. That’s totally normal behavior. She even pays salary. Damn, how come a great job like that didn’t come to me?”
By the end, he was even a bit angry.
Damn Xie Jingyan—just lucky to be at the same school as Jiang Ning.
If Jiang Ning were at Seventh Middle School.
Wei Jin thought, he’d definitely take that servant job.
He was just that confident.
Jin Yuanyuan and Huzi: “…Have you gone crazy? Are you in love that much?”
The two expressed that they didn’t understand and were greatly shocked.
How long had they even known each other?
When Seventh Middle School’s school beauty showed favor to him, he hadn’t been this impulsive.
Wei Jin shook his head and sighed: “Do you guys believe in love at first sight?”
The two: “?”
Wei Jin recalled his first meeting with Jiang Ning: “Come to think of it, I didn’t believe it either, but the fact is, the first time I saw her, I was moved. I still remember that day—she passed by me, I called out to her, and when she turned back to look at me, her eyes were so clean and clear. Under the sunset dusk, she seemed to be glowing. Even that dirty, messy, gray alley became clean and bright. I can’t describe the feeling, I just know the phrase ‘love at first sight’ came to life. I, Wei Jin, am definitely going to win Jiang Ning.”
Seeing Wei Jin suddenly full of motivation, the two fell silent for a moment: “Brother Jin, she’s a young lady from a wealthy family. She won’t fall for you.”
Wei Jin had heard this twice before.
Once from Xie Jingyan.
Once from his own good brother.
He still didn’t care, laughing boldly: “So what? If I can’t marry her, I’ll never get married in my life.”
Huzi: “Whoa, bro, that’s going too far. You’re still young—life won’t just have this one person who moves you. Don’t say too much.”
Wei Jin pursed his lips: “Alright, you two go send him. I’m off to find Jiang Ning.”
After saying that, he lowered his head, squinted at the bloody-faced man: “You’d better behave.”
Then he turned and left the rundown factory.
…
Ninth Middle School.
Jiang Ning boredly propped her chin, it was already eight-thirty, one more hour until evening study session ended.
This class was self-study.
Most classmates in the class were writing today’s homework.
Jiang Ning saw the stack of test papers in front of her and got a headache. She really didn’t want to go through it again, but she had no choice—she had to write them every day. After finishing the teacher’s, she still had to do the ones Xie Jingyan organized. From his attitude, he was determined to cultivate her into a success.
Taking twenty thousand from her each month really motivated him.
Jiang Ning still hadn’t dared to delete Meng Jing’s WeChat, deciding to take it step by step.
She’d probe first.
Lingling Has South: [What are you doing?]
Chunfen: [Eating.]
Jiang Ning’s heart went cold.
Lingling Has South: [Baby, what delicious food are you eating? Send me a pic.]
Chunfen: [Attached photo hotpot]
Jiang Ning immediately went to find Jiang Yan.
Jiang Ning: [What are you eating at the dinner party?]
Jiang Yan, receiving a WeChat from Jiang Ning again after months, was a bit pleasantly surprised.
This was the first time Jiang Ning had proactively messaged him, even asking what he was eating.
Was she concerned about him?
Jiang Yan didn’t want to be so sensitive, but he couldn’t help guessing and speculating.
In the end, he still took a photo of the bowl of rice in front of him to show her.
Jiang Yan: [Eating hotpot today, tastes pretty good. Next time, can we invite big sis to eat with us?]
Jiang Ning’s heart turned ice-cold.
Jiang Ning: [We’ll talk about next time. No mood lately.]
She switched back to her alternate account.
Staring dryly at the chat box.
How could someone make such a huge mess?
She just wanted to have an online relationship, play around casually, and ended up on the male lead.
Jiang Ning thought, sure enough, she was possessed by a jinx god—never been lucky.
She thought for a long time.
She typed dryly.
Lingling Has South: [You have time to eat hotpot but don’t message me? Let’s break up. I won’t tolerate your cold violence anymore!]
Jiang Ning turned the tables directly, and after sending, she quickly blocked him.
This should work, right?
Peacefully broken up.
“Clang.”
The window by her side made a sound.
Jiang Ning puzzledly turned her head and saw Wei Jin climbing the nearest cedar tree to her.
Throwing small pebbles toward her window.
Seeing that Jiang Ning noticed him, he waved at her like a thief, signaling her to come out.
This series of moves left Jiang Ning dumbfounded.
Seeing no teacher in the classroom.
Jiang Ning put her textbooks into the desk and went out.
Wei Jin was already waiting for her outside the teaching building.
Seeing Jiang Ning, he grinned happily: “Pig killing meal or what do you want to eat?”
Jiang Ning: “…”
She glanced at him: “I didn’t agree to go eat with you. If we’re caught, I’ll get demerited.”
“No way, I have a secret passage to guarantee you won’t be found. Plus, this class is self-study, right? Teacher won’t come. Let’s go—pig killing meal is really delicious.” Wei Jin grabbed Jiang Ning’s wrist and led her toward the corner wall of Ninth Middle School.
Jiang Ning shook him off and rubbed her wrist: “Don’t pull and tug. Lead the way, I can walk myself.”
Wei Jin wasn’t angry at all, still grinning: “Got it, this one will lead the way for you.”
Brother Xie, happily eating hotpot, saw the message and felt the sky collapse—his wife ran away!
