Chapter 82: Are You Out Picking Male Models With Your Servant?
Xie Jingyan crouched down to untie the ropes for Little Fatty.
“Mm… sort of, because your father issued a reward notice, ten thousand dollars for finding you. Wait and come with me to collect the money later. For you, I nearly pedaled the shared bicycle until it smoked.” He let out a light breath, indicating he was really tired.
Jiang Ning: “…”
Was it for her, or for that ten thousand dollars.
Jiang Ning looked at him expressionlessly.
Xie Jingyan still felt uneasy and pulled Jiang Ning to stand against the wall: “I’ll take a photo of you.”
Jiang Ning: “…”
She looked at the lens with a look of speechless exasperation.
There’s really no need, buddy!
Xie Jingyan looked at the photo of Jiang Ning with an expression like she had been kidnapped, thinking it still wouldn’t do: “How about I record a video for you?”
Jiang Ning’s temple twitched, and she cursed outright: “If you dare nag me again, I’ll make sure you don’t get a single cent.”
Xie Jingyan indeed shut up.
Jiang Ning glared at him angrily. Was this guy here to counter her?
She turned to look at Little Fatty sitting on the stairs wiping tears, and crouched in front of him: “What’s your name?”
Little Fatty hiccupped through sobs: “Meng, Meng Xingcan.”
“Where’s your home?”
“Cap, Capital City, waaah, Grandfather, Grandmother, Father, Mother, waaah, I want to go home.”
Jiang Ning saw him wearing an expensive small suit and knew this child came from either a wealthy or noble family.
“No crying, or I’ll throw you back to the human traffickers.” Jiang Ning looked fierce.
Meng Xingcan pursed his lips, holding back two pools of tears as he looked at her, his little nose twitching, looking very sad.
Jiang Ning then continued to inquire: “Do you know your parents’ phone number?”
Meng Xingcan shook his head: “No.”
“Then do you know your family address?”
Meng Xingcan nodded: “Jing Mo Yuan A1 Building in Capital City, that’s my home.”
Xie Jingyan’s eyes flickered slightly as he glanced at him.
Jing Mo Yuan?
Even if Jiang Ning didn’t live in Capital City, she knew that was a top rich people area.
Housing prices calculated at a million per square meter.
The unit this kid mentioned was a building!
One building!
This damn place was worth over a billion dollars.
She was somewhat speechless and looked up at Xie Jingyan: “He seems like that top wealthy family young master who got lost in the novels.”
Xie Jingyan leaned lazily against the door and responded lightly without much emotion upon hearing this: “Mm.”
“If you take him home, forget ten thousand, his family will give you a million.”
He raised his brow with an ambiguous smile: “A gentleman does not eat food offered in charity. I’ll only take what’s rightfully mine.”
Jiang Ning: “???”
Her mind was full of question marks.
“Your share is what’s mine.”
Jiang Ning: “…”
What a gentleman not eating food offered in charity. Can’t he distinguish between ten thousand and a million?
She held back again and again but couldn’t resist giving him a thumbs up: “I think you’ve really gone dumb from studying.”
Seeing Little Fatty looking at her with teary eyes.
She instantly became troubled again: “What to do with this kid? I can’t take him to Capital City myself, right?”
“Drop him at the police station, someone will come claim him.” Xie Jingyan said indifferently.
Jiang Ning: “Alright.”
Meng Xingcan: “…”
Can’t they take him home?!
He gave Xie Jingyan a glance with slight hostility, then his little chubby hand grabbed Jiang Ning’s finger pitifully: “Older Sister, I’m scared.”
Jiang Ning was somewhat troubled, but the police station was his best destination, where he could contact his family the fastest.
Jiang Ning patted his head: “Xingcan be good. At the police station, the hat uncle will help you find your family, and you’ll be home soon.”
Meng Xingcan drooped his brows and eyes, looking sullen.
Jiang Ning was a bit curious. Normally, these rich young masters had protection, so why was Meng Xingcan kidnapped?
Jiang Ning asked: “Why were you in that van?”
At the mention of this, Meng Xingcan looked a bit guilty. He pouted: “I snuck out to find someone without telling Father and Mother, and when I woke up, I was tied up.”
Jiang Ning: “…”
Another weirdo.
Voices talking came from outside.
Xie Jingyan peered through the gap in the corridor door to the outside.
Police had arrived.
The two surviving kidnappers were fleeing in panic.
“Let’s leave here first and go inside Zero Degree. It’s still not safe here. Wait for the police to control the situation.”
Jiang Ning nodded.
Meng Xingcan walked in front with Jiang Ning.
Xie Jingyan followed behind.
“Did you shoot those two?” he suddenly asked.
Jiang Ning played dumb: “What? I don’t know how to use a gun. Their gun misfired and they shot themselves.”
“Oh.”
Xie Jingyan had watched the whole thing.
He was still thinking how to get Jiang Ning out of that car, but she jumped out first, escaped without running away, opened the trunk, and casually rescued a child.
At the moment the driver bro fired, she calmly put the last bullet into the driver bro’s shoulder.
Then she threw the gun on the ground and ran off with Meng Xingcan.
The whole set of self-rescue moves was exceptionally smooth, as if she had done it thousands of times and was completely familiar with the process.
But how could Jiang Ning, a pampered little princess, know how to shoot.
When he held her hand, he felt her fingertips, not even a single callus.
Now Jiang Ning was a complete mystery in his eyes.
Instinct told him to stay away, but Xie Jingyan wanted to figure out the truth.
For example, threatening him with his sister while actually not even knowing what his sister looked like, and giving all her savings to Xie He for healing.
For example, fighting a murderer to save Sui Tang, finally stabbing three times to save herself, at the cost of injuring one hand.
She would skip evening study session to confront Huo Chengxuan upon hearing Jiang Yan was in danger, ending up sick for several days.
And even when she could have escaped, she still rescued Meng Xingcan, this burden.
Such a sincere person.
Was this really the same Jiang Ning who bullied him for a whole year?
Xie Jingyan stopped.
Jiang Ning was always watching him and also stopped, turning to ask: “What’s wrong?”
She was afraid Xie Jingyan would come to recap with her or suspect her identity.
Xie Jingyan stomped hard on the floor: “Yah!”
The corridor lit up.
He pointed overhead: “Voice-activated light.”
Jiang Ning: “…”
She continued walking expressionlessly, saying sarcastically: “No way, no way, you think you’re funny?”
“Don’t know if I’m funny, but I’ll be rich soon.” Xie Jingyan walked to her side: “When will you take me to see your dad?”
Jiang Ning got angry: “Can you not be so eager? I haven’t safely gotten home yet.”
Xie Jingyan shut up again.
Jiang Ning opened the Zero Degree second floor safety passage door and immediately ran into Wei Jin.
He had his red hair neatly styled, wearing a sexy V-neck black shirt that exposed his chest, reeking of smoke and alcohol, his face done up like a pretty boy.
The moment he saw Jiang Ning, the two stared wide-eyed.
His face slowly turned red, and his gaze shifted to Xie Jingyan.
Noticing the interest in Xie Jingyan’s eyes, Wei Jin was embarrassed and wished he could burrow into a hole.
The air was quiet.
Wei Jin spoke first, somewhat stammering: “You, you’re taking your servant out to get a male model?”
