Chapter 141: I Super Hate Her
Jiang Ning was speechless and realized the reason why Xie Jingyan had been unhappy ever since he got on the bus to Xiao Ge Town.
Was it because he returned to the place of sadness?
Regarding Xie Jingyan’s background, Jiang Ning had never asked Little Honey about it, and Little Honey had never said much.
Seeing this house burned like this by the fire, Jiang Ning more or less understood something, because Xie Jingyan had a sister and grandmother, but she had never heard him mention his father or mother.
Mentioning the topic of death is always very heavy, and Jiang Ning understood this feeling.
Her lips parted and closed, and finally she comforted him: “They are still there, just turned into stars, watching you from heaven.”
Xie Jingyan quietly looked at Jiang Ning for three seconds, then couldn’t help but laugh: “I didn’t expect Young Lady Jiang to know how to comfort people.”
Jiang Ning looked at him dissatisfied: “Don’t think of me as that kind of emotionless cold-blooded monster, okay? I have human emotions and desires too.”
She wasn’t a deity either; she could empathize, had desires, joys and sorrows, so live well while alive, and as for those bad things, let them stay in the soil.
So Jiang Ning always thought very openly and never tormented herself inwardly.
“I hope you’re really like that.” Xie Jingyan replied indifferently, looking up at the third floor again, his heart seemingly not as pained as at the beginning, even quite calm.
The past will eventually pass; no one lives in the past.
“Do you know why I hate Su Wanyuan?” Xie Jingyan suddenly said.
Hearing this topic abruptly, Jiang Ning was startled.
He hated her?
He clearly called her name while sleeping!
Jiang Ning almost blurted it out, but swallowed it back and asked dryly: “Why? You grew up together with her since childhood; what grudge could make you barrier like this.”
In this book’s ending, the male lead ended up with the female lead.
The book’s conclusion was the two getting engaged and entering the marriage hall.
Jiang Ning thought it was probably just a misunderstanding between the two, and later the male and female leads talked it out and reconciled.
Xie Jingyan’s voice was very flat yet exceptionally serious: “With a blood feud between us, do you think it’s excessive for me to hate her?”
Jiang Ning’s expression stiffened. Blood what?
Blood feud???
She licked her lips, seeing Xie Jingyan didn’t look like he was joking, and couldn’t help swallowing: “This… she…”
“Su Wanyuan killed not only your younger brother, but also my parents. This big fire was caused by her negligence. If she couldn’t fulfill the promise, why agree? Jiang Ning, between me and her is the lives of family members. Everyone is advising me to accept her apology, forgive her mistake. Am I a saint? Do I have to pay for this? So I super hate her; I can’t forgive her.” Xie Jingyan said word by word, exposing his past to Jiang Ning, telling her not to associate him with Su Wanyuan anymore.
Hearing her name made him want to vomit.
He wasn’t some selfless dedicated saint; beneath the elegant exterior, he was selfish and self-interested inside.
Jiang Ning was stunned; she really hadn’t expected the reason for the breakup between Xie Jingyan and Su Wanyuan to be a matter of life and death between them!
No wonder Xie Jingyan despised her so much.
Whenever she mentioned anything about Su Wanyuan, he always retorted.
He ignored Su Wanyuan’s multiple attempts to show favor, even indifferent.
Jiang Ning’s mood was a bit complicated, but how to explain that he muttered Su Wanyuan’s name in his sleep?
Jiang Ning’s mind buzzed, even feeling this book was really crazy.
The female lead killed the male lead’s parents; even if it was an accident, it did cause the incident. If it were Jiang Ning, she couldn’t forgive either.
But they ended up together in the end.
It really was bizarre enough.
Xie Jingyan’s tone was indifferent: “So when you said the murder might be related to Su Wanyuan, I wasn’t surprised at all. Having blood on her hands, why would she fear continuing to harm others? She appears noble and pure on the surface, but actually she’s ambitious and opportunistic.”
Jiang Ning: “…”
“Let’s go. I’ll take you to her former home, right across from my house.” Xie Jingyan didn’t want to mention Su Wanyuan anymore.
He took Jiang Ning to the residential building opposite.
After Su Wanyuan’s parents died in an accident, she was left alone in this house. Seeing her pitiful, Xie Jingyan’s mother took her in to live with their family, so Su Wanyuan rarely stayed here except for occasional cleaning.
Her home was on the fifth floor.
Xie Jingyan looked at the faded couplets pasted on the wall, with a dusty inverted fu character right in the middle of the door.
He curled his fingers and gently knocked on the door.
However, after a long time, no one came to open it.
Jiang Ning couldn’t help saying: “Is she not here?”
Xie Jingyan sighed, his gaze sweeping over the peephole on the door: “Looks like she didn’t come back here. Let’s go.”
Jiang Ning widened her eyes and quickly grabbed Xie Jingyan’s hand: “We’re leaving just like this? We haven’t found her yet!”
Xie Jingyan shrugged helplessly: “She might not have returned to Xiao Ge Town. Let’s go back to Jin Cheng first. She’ll show up eventually; after all, murder carries legal responsibility. If we don’t find her, the police will sooner or later.”
Seeing Jiang Ning’s unhappy face, he softened his voice: “If we go back now, we can still catch the last bus. How about I treat you to beef noodles with extra meat when we get to Jin Cheng?”
Jiang Ning finally nodded reluctantly: “Fine, we came for nothing. Let’s go.”
The old residential building had no elevator; Jiang Ning went down the stairs first.
Xie Jingyan coldly glanced at the peephole, then followed behind Jiang Ning and left.
At the entrance.
Su Wanyuan, watching the two leave through the peephole, was already breaking out in cold sweat from fear.
What murder?
Had she been discovered?
How is that possible!
She had turned off her mobile phone since leaving the hospital. The reason she came to Xiao Ge Town was to prevent the Gu Family from discovering the weakened Gu Lanli; she wanted to let him recuperate here for a few days before returning to Jin Cheng.
Su Wanyuan then remembered her phone. Her hands trembled as she rummaged in her bag, pulled out the charger, and turned on the powered-off mobile phone.
A string of phone calls popped out, along with several text messages from the Jin Cheng Public Security Bureau.
Su Wanyuan was so scared she immediately turned it off, her face turning pale.
Didn’t Jiang Yan die?
Why send her these things?
This house hadn’t been cleaned for a long time; Su Wanyuan had only simply tidied up two rooms for sleeping.
Behind her came footsteps. Gu Lanli’s voice was somewhat weak: “Wanyuan, how much longer do we have to stay here? It’s okay; the Gu Family won’t blame you because you saved my life. My father might even change his view of you.”
Su Wanyuan tightly pursed her lips.
Did Gu Lanli really think everyone was as foolish as him?
Problems he couldn’t see, others could spot at a glance.
If they really went back like this, Father Gu might even think she deliberately staged this.
Su Wanyuan took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down. She couldn’t be caught; her beautiful life had just begun. She couldn’t stay here any longer.
