Chapter 55: My Online Relationship Partner Wants To Meet In Person?
Jiang Ning’s hand holding the umbrella trembled, and she lowered her head to meet the youth’s pitch-black eyes, which were like an abyss, where Jiang Ning couldn’t see even a hint of his desire to live.
The peaceful coexistence between the two over such a long time was broken, and the rope that Jiang Ning had worked hard to maintain snapped.
Jiang Yan’s gaze was empty: “Please, don’t come near me anymore.”
Jiang Ning lowered her eyes. At this moment, Jiang Yan was no longer the youth who died early with just a few brief descriptions in the book, but a living human with blood and flesh, emotions and pain.
Jiang Ning seemed to hear his mournful cry.
Jiang Yan, perhaps, had long stopped wanting to live.
It made her involuntarily think of herself. She, who had once been desperate with no way out, had stood on the rooftop several times. What exactly had supported her to keep living?
Jiang Ning didn’t know.
But she felt that being alive was good enough; difficulties would be solved.
So after dying in a car accident and transmigrating into the book, Jiang Ning wasn’t too upset.
Anyway, she was alone wherever she was.
She only wanted one hundred million; money wouldn’t betray her.
Jiang Ning sighed softly: “Jiang Yan, I hope you live well. Difficulties will be solved.”
Jiang Yan’s eyelashes trembled lightly.
He closed his eyes, tears mixing with rainwater sliding down.
He was disliked by this family just like his name.
An existence that was not acknowledged, not liked.
He was shrouded by Jiang Ning; his life had no hope.
Jiang Ning walked into the villa.
Madam Jiang sat on the sofa with a sullen face.
Jiang Ning thought about it and still decided to explain the matter to Madam Jiang: “Mom, I told Xiao Yan to come back first. I wanted to comfort Tangtang. No one could predict that the murderer would disguise himself as a taxi driver. Don’t blame him; he’s innocent.”
Madam Jiang’s figure stiffened, and she tightly pursed her lips without speaking.
Jiang Ning reached out to hold her hand: “Mom, don’t do things against your heart. You’re not happy, and neither is Jiang Yan.”
Later, Jiang Ning went upstairs.
Half an hour later, intense arguing erupted downstairs.
Father Jiang hurried back and saw his son kneeling on the ground in the pouring rain, his back whipped raw and bloody.
He angrily pointed at Madam Jiang, lost control of his temper, and the two argued fiercely.
Jiang Yan was taken away by Father Jiang, leaving this villa.
No matter how loud the commotion downstairs was, it couldn’t stop her from messaging the top grade.
She opened her mobile phone and saw more than twenty messages, mixed with several missed voice calls.
Jiang Ning patted her head with her good hand.
She had put her mobile phone on silent and forgotten to turn it back on.
So she hurriedly messaged the other side.
Lingling You Nan: [I’m here. Some things kept me from checking messages.]
She thought the other side should be asleep at this hour.
Who knew he replied instantly.
Chunfen: [Where did you go? Are you just getting back to the dormitory now?]
Jiang Ning could only type with one hand now, which was a bit slow.
The other side seemed impatient and directly sent her a voice message.
Jiang Ning tapped to answer and explained to him: “I’m fine, all good. Don’t worry. It’s almost one o’clock; why haven’t you slept yet?”
The other side was silent for a few seconds, his voice low and hoarse: “I’m worried about you, so I haven’t slept. Did something happen to you?”
Jiang Ning glanced at her left hand and lied: “I tripped while walking today and broke my left hand. It’s not a big deal; I just got back from the hospital.”
Afraid the other side wouldn’t believe her.
Jiang Ning took a photo of her injured left hand and sent it over.
“See, I’m not lying, right? It hurts so much. Blow on it for me.” Jiang Ning started playing pitiful, acting cute in a coquettish way to tease him.
The other side seemed to sigh very lightly: “Next time something like this happens, you must tell me.”
Jiang Ning: “Mm-hmm.”
“Zhaozhao.”
His voice was very gentle; Jiang Ning felt her ears go soft.
“Hm?” Her voice also softened involuntarily.
Her eyelids were fighting; she was very sleepy.
“Next month, I’m going to the capital city for the competitive mathematics finals. Let’s meet up.”
Jiang Ning’s sleepiness instantly vanished in fright.
Her online relationship partner wanted to meet in person?
No way!
Jiang Ning would never meet in person even if it killed her.
Moreover…
Meng Jing also participated in competitive mathematics?
It seemed his grades were very good, so confident he could make the finals.
Moreover, Jiang Ning had already narrowed him down to Seventh Middle School.
When heading to the capital city, there would definitely be few people from each school who made the finals, so maybe she could find out who he was in advance.
To placate him, Jiang Ning randomly agreed: “Sure, baby. I’m so looking forward to meeting you. I’ll give you a big hug and kiss you once. But I’m ugly, so don’t disdain me.”
The other side couldn’t help but chuckle lowly: “I’m not good-looking either. Zhaozhao, don’t dislike me when you see me.”
Jiang Ning giggled and started talking nonsense: “Don’t worry, I don’t care about appearance. Even if you’re a toad, I won’t disdain you.”
“Alright, go to sleep early. Good night. See you in half a month.”
Jiang Ning happily hung up the call.
Little Honey ruthlessly broke the mood: [You’re lying! If the other side were really a toad, you’d run faster than anyone.]
Before meeting, the small light orb floated in front of Jiang Ning; she directly grabbed it with her right hand.
Little Honey was like a little light bulb, quite warm.
It struggled in Jiang Ning’s palm: “Let go of me.”
“Even if he’s not a toad, I still have to run.”
Little Honey: [Really?]
Jiang Ning looked indifferent: “Him? I’m just playing around. Men? Nothing is more important than the mission. Alright, Little Honey, you should go back to sleep.”
She didn’t understand why every time she chatted with the top grade, it had to pop out and say something.
As if it couldn’t stand to see her happy.
“I caught this murderer today. It won’t affect the later plot, right?” Jiang Ning changed the subject.
Little Honey indeed took the bait and followed Jiang Ning’s words: [Normally, this hidden plot wouldn’t happen to you, because later the murderer would kill three more people, then target the female lead, and be rescued by the second male lead and male lead together. But this murderer encountered you…]
It was somewhat speechless: [His plot is finished. The fates of the innocent bystanders who were originally killed later have also changed, but… it shouldn’t be a big problem. Because of the changed plot holes, the world will create other plots to fill them. Host, no need to worry; it won’t affect you.]
Jiang Ning thought it made sense.
It was just that this murderer had come really strangely.
It was as if he had targeted Sui Tang specifically.
Jiang Ning thought for a few seconds, her mind growing groggy, and slowly fell asleep.
The next day.
With the servant’s help, Jiang Ning got dressed.
She went downstairs and saw only one breakfast on the table.
Madam Jiang wasn’t home either.
She looked at the servant cleaning nearby and inquired: “Where’s my mom?”
“Madam left early. Sir went to the company. Young Master… Young Master won’t appear in the villa anymore. Miss, eat breakfast first. Madam said if you don’t want to go to school, you don’t have to.”
Jiang Ning drank milk and held a sandwich with one hand: “I want to go to school.”
Upon arriving at school, Jiang Ning was stopped by Gu Lanli.
She looked at him irritably: “Are you done or not? I won’t get back together with you!”
Who the hell wants to keep being a lapdog? Dream on.
Who knew, Gu Lanli gnashed his teeth: “That’s not what I want to talk about. Where’s my motorcycle?! Where’s my huge motorcycle?!”
Typo correction, thanks~
