Chapter 174: I Just Think You’re Hilarious
Jiang Ning just quietly watched him.
She tilted her head slightly: “It’s really strange, why did the previous Jiang Ning like a fool like you.”
Gu Lanli’s facial expression paled, somewhat afraid to meet Jiang Ning’s gaze.
He actually… didn’t like Su Wanyuan.
He just felt like Su Wanyuan was his best choice around him.
Because of his momentary lapse, he lost the Jiang Ning who once loved him the most.
He didn’t want to lose the Su Wanyuan he once liked the most because of his own mistake again.
But this like seemed to have changed in the passage of time.
Gu Lanli’s voice was a bit hoarse: “Jiang Ning, am I really that bad?”
The youth who was clearly only eighteen seemed to have grown a lot after this month’s prison disaster.
His temperament was no longer unruly, but instead had a bit more restraint.
Jiang Ning nodded: “Very bad, but fortunately we have no relationship anymore.”
Hearing Jiang Ning’s words of severing ties, Gu Lanli still felt a bit upset. He took a deep breath and said to Jiang Ning: “I’m sorry, please believe me, Wanyuan is not that kind of person, she didn’t do it on purpose.”
Jiang Ning looked at him coldly: “Not on purpose? Then why did she know it was going to pour that day but still take you up the mountain to chase the meteor shower? Why bring a leaky rotten tent? Why not remind you to wear more clothes, why wear cotton-padded clothes under her own clothes but watch you suffer in the cold wind and rain, why after you passed out from the cold, not give you her cotton-padded clothes to wear but throw them aside, call Jiang Yan up the mountain to save her? After the truth came out, she didn’t dare accept the investigation and instead made you take the blame for her. If she had no intention to harm Jiang Yan, why was she afraid?”
Jiang Ning’s speech left Gu Lanli speechless.
He wanted to argue, but found he couldn’t say a single word for Su Wanyuan.
Because… Jiang Ning was right about everything.
It was Su Wanyuan who took him to chase the meteor, Su Wanyuan who swore she had prepared everything, Su Wanyuan’s cotton-padded clothes left on the mountain, Su Wanyuan who shed a few tears and cried saying she didn’t, and he softened and took the blame for her.
Gu Lanli opened his mouth, his voice stuck in his throat, and after a long while he said: “I, don’t know…”
Jiang Ning shook her head: “No, you’re not unaware, you’re just stupid. Besides your good family background and handsome face, your brain is just grass in a decoration. For such an obvious trap, you still say you don’t know. Gu Lanli, even someone pretending to sleep should wake up in this situation. Please use your eyes to see clearly the Su Wanyuan you like, okay? Is she still the same as the one you first liked.”
Her meaning was exhausted; if Gu Lanli still couldn’t wake up, she had nothing more to say.
This original female lead was completely ruined.
Gu Lanli’s originally firm determination began to waver.
Actually, he was also very pained.
Mysteriously detained.
Causing his parents to pull strings everywhere, run around to reduce his punishment, give up business deals worth billions to gain the Jiang Family’s forgiveness, and finally when he came out of the detention room, he didn’t even see Su Wanyuan’s shadow. He might even be advised to withdraw from school because of the disciplinary record.
Now there were only two paths left in front of him: spend money to buy into a noble university, or go abroad for further studies.
Gu Lanli’s original plan was to take Su Wanyuan abroad for studies.
He silently looked at Jiang Ning and suddenly asked: “Will you go abroad for studies?”
Jiang Ning was too lazy to pay attention to him: “No!”
Then she followed the police inside.
Gu Lanli’s gaze then turned to Xie Jingyan not far away.
A inexplicable sense of shame surged in his heart.
He tightened his lips: “Xie Jingyan, are you very proud?”
Xie Jingyan leaned faintly against the glass door, glanced at him obliquely, and sneered: “I just think you’re ridiculous.”
Gu Lanli clenched his fist.
Xie Jingyan cracked his knuckles: “Don’t come at me for a fight. After training with Jiang Ning for a year, your body probably can’t beat mine.”
Gu Lanli: “…”
The clenched fist silently loosened.
He walked past Xie Jingyan to leave, opened his mobile phone, hesitating whether to call Su Wanyuan.
Xie Jingyan disdainfully watched him, then turned to see a camera hiding by a big tree not far away, filming towards him.
His facial expression immediately darkened, his mood extremely bad.
The peeper discovered him but still didn’t hide, staring straight at him.
From far away, the peeper took out a photograph from his hand and shook it towards Xie Jingyan.
The photograph showed him and Jiang Ning’s figures.
The photograph was very clear, both their appearances captured distinctly.
The peeper drew a big X over Jiang Ning’s photograph, the provocation extreme.
Xie Jingyan’s dark eyes held anger, but ultimately he lowered his gaze, calming everything.
Seeing Jiang Ning still inside inquiring, Xie Jingyan left the police station first.
Seeing Xie Jingyan coming, the peeper packed up and turned into another street.
Seeing him run, Xie Jingyan chased in the direction the peeper left.
Not long after Xie Jingyan left.
A taxi slowly stopped in front of Gu Lanli, the car window opened, revealing a man wearing a mask and baseball cap.
He lowered his head and glanced towards Gu Lanli, seeing him on the phone, quietly waiting for his call to end.
On the other side.
Xie Jingyan took a shortcut and blocked the fleeing photographer.
He narrowed his eyes coldly and sneered: “Take sneaky photos and run, that’s a bit too impolite, is that how the Lin Family teaches you to do things?”
The middle-aged man in front of him hung the camera around his neck and said respectfully: “Young Master, the sneaky photo was because Master misses you too much and helplessly wanted to see your photograph.”
Xie Jingyan felt like vomiting upon hearing this excuse.
“Go back and tell Lin Tinghe, I have no relationship with the Lin Family, no relationship with the Meng Family either. My father is surnamed Xie, and so am I. Don’t come find me again, and don’t disturb my peaceful life, otherwise I won’t let them go.” Xie Jingyan stated faintly.
If he had enough ability, during the capital circle’s big reshuffle, the first to be eliminated would be the Lin Family.
Because they didn’t deserve it.
The middle-aged peeper looked troubled at Xie Jingyan and said apologetically: “Young Master, forgive me, I can’t bring such words to you. Master has a very serious illness, he’s still in the hospital now, his life could disappear at any time, so Master’s only wish before dying is to see you one more time. Please fulfill his paternal love.”
Xie Jingyan only felt annoyed: “Tell him to get lost. As I said, if he wants me to see him, that’s fine, but it has to be at his funeral. Also, don’t threaten me with the safety of people around me. If you dare harm the girl in the photograph, I won’t guarantee what irreparable things I’ll do.”
Xie Jingyan’s warning voice was very heavy.
Actually, Xie Jingyan wasn’t afraid of this so-called Lin Family.
But if because of him, Jiang Ning was targeted, forcing him to compromise, then Xie Jingyan wouldn’t just sit idly by without fighting back, because he clearly knew that if he agreed to Lin Tinghe’s request and went to see him, he might not be able to come back.
