Chapter 203: Don’t Spread Rumors About Me
Jiang Ning was also somewhat dumbfounded.
Just came out like this?
Not dead?
This easily?
She quietly glanced at Xie Jingyan’s hand tightly gripping her wrist, her brain briefly losing the ability to think.
No, what’s going on here?
According to the original plot, this group of kidnappers was bought by Xie Jingyan, but the kidnapped person didn’t include Su Wanyuan, only Jiang Ning alone. After the Jiang Family went bankrupt, she was ripped up the ticket and her body dumped in the wilderness.
Now this plot has changed a bit, but at least they kidnapped her, but… she was saved by Xie Jingyan…
This point puzzled Jiang Ning greatly. He clearly hated the “Jiang Ning” who ruined his sister’s hope so much, so why did he specially come up the mountain to save her?
Little Honey: 【Host! You absolutely cannot expose that you are not the original Jiang Ning, then find a method to leave the male lead. I’ll find a way to send you away.】
Jiang Ning blinked: 『Don’t I need to die?』
Little Honey: 【…Although death is a faster path, making you commit suicide is also painful. Don’t worry, I’ll think of a way. Sending you away requires one day. As long as you leave the male lead and hide anywhere outside for one day, it’ll be fine. Xiao He is about to die.】
Thinking of Xie He’s pained little face.
Jiang Ning took a deep breath and said in her mind: 『I got it.』
Jiang Ning struggled hard, only to find that Xie Jingyan’s strength was immense; she couldn’t break free.
So she could only imitate the original owner’s tone: “Xie Jingyan, let go of your filthy hand. Don’t think that because you saved me, I’ll be grateful. Gu Lanli Gege was just deceived. He has me in his heart…”
After Jiang Ning finished speaking, her whole body went numb.
She didn’t know what the original owner liked about Gu Lanli anyway; she couldn’t understand it.
Xie Jingyan didn’t let go and instead sneered coldly: “Your Lan Li Gege wishes you were dead on the mountain to feed the wild dogs. And yet you still like him. Do you like playing SM?”
Jiang Ning: “…”
She didn’t like it; she was a normal person.
She pretended to be angry: “Nonsense, don’t spread rumors about me.”
Xie Jingyan turned his head, scaring Jiang Ning into immediately falling silent. His gaze was deep and dark; Jiang Ning guiltily averted her eyes, staring at the gravel road like a quail, as if the ground could sprout flowers.
“Am I spreading rumors? You’re like a masochist. I thought you were a masochist. Want to play with me?” Xie Jingyan scoffed, his tone very cold.
Jiang Ning: “…”
She looked at him with a “you’re crazy” expression.
“Are you sick? If your brain isn’t working, go to the hospital. What relationship do we have? And you want me to play with you? What, our grudge is just written off like that?”
Being cursed at by Jiang Ning, Xie Jingyan wasn’t angry. He said slowly: “The Jiang Family has already been bankrupted by me.”
Jiang Ning choked. Although she knew the Jiang Family bankruptcy storyline involved Xie Jingyan’s handiwork, and that it was a decision he made because the original Jiang Ning had provoked him.
“What about my parents? Are they okay?”
Jiang Ning only cared about her parents’ safety. After all, money lost could be earned back, but people lost were gone forever.
She was on tenterhooks because in the original plot, after Jiang Ning died, Madam Jiang couldn’t take the blow and jumped to her death. She didn’t know how she was doing now.
Xie Jingyan looked at her with a half-smile, mockingly: “A selfish person like you, after the family bankruptcy, still thought to use the last bit of money to buy killers and stage a play, and yet you still have a conscience to think of your poor parents?”
Jiang Ning truly hated Xie Jingyan’s mouth to death.
She had suffered its torment before, and later when she hooked him, gentle words came out of it for a while, but now that he was targeting her, it started again.
Jiang Ning had a massive headache.
The two safely came down the mountain.
However, Xie Jingyan still didn’t let go of her.
Jiang Ning was getting impatient: “Since you won’t say, I’ll go find them myself. Let go of me; I want to go home.”
A luxury car stopped in front of the two.
Xie Jingyan directly shoved Jiang Ning inside, indifferently ordering: “Drive.”
Jiang Ning sat up straight, watching the receding scenery outside the window, somewhat baffled as she looked at Xie Jingyan: “Where are you taking me? I want to go home!”
Xie Jingyan quietly looked at the scenery outside the window, not answering Jiang Ning’s question.
This wasn’t the road back to White Manor.
Jiang Ning suppressed the urge to beat Xie Jingyan up, since she temporarily couldn’t expose herself.
The mission was already completed, and she had also converted one hundred million into a wish.
She had just suffered some cold violence.
Jiang Ning felt very unhappy inside.
She tsked: “If you won’t say, then don’t. Who cares to know anyway.”
Then she moved to the farthest edge, determined not to sit next to Xie Jingyan.
Xie Jingyan glanced sideways at Jiang Ning’s puffed-up face, then after a moment, lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
“You’ll know soon enough.”
He dropped that line and said no more.
The car stopped outside a villa in the suburbs of Jin Cheng.
The surroundings were very remote and desolate.
Jiang Ning was puzzled why he brought her to such a remote place.
Until she was dragged inside, the door locked, and Xie Jingyan walked toward her step by step.
Jiang Ning instantly sensed the danger in his gaze.
She took a step back, only to realize Xie Jingyan had directly passed her and walked away.
Jiang Ning: “…”
He went to pour himself a glass of water: “Didn’t I say I have something to ask you?”
Jiang Ning calmed down and turned to look at him: “If I answer, can I go back?”
Xie Jingyan chuckled lightly: “Yes.”
“Then ask away.”
Xie Jingyan said slowly: “I know this is a book world, with a soul from another world who transmigrated here through the book to do missions, making my destiny tragic, and after completing her plot points, she could obtain one hundred million and return to her own world carefree.”
Jiang Ning’s heart skipped a beat.
No way, how did this buddy know?!
The original Jiang Ning only knew she was a person from another world with a system, but she didn’t know they actually lived in a book. During that time she stayed by Xie Jingyan’s side, she hadn’t seen the original Jiang Ning say anything to him about it.
She maintained a calm facade: “And then? What does this have to do with me? She completed her mission and took the one hundred million and left long ago.”
“Left?” Xie Jingyan smiled, somewhat maniacally: “Then find a way to make her come back.”
Jiang Ning was shocked, looking at Xie Jingyan in disbelief: “Impossible! The two worlds are not connected; she can’t come back. Let me go; I want to go home.”
“Since she can’t come back, you’ll have to stay here until she does.”
After Xie Jingyan finished speaking, he turned and left.
Jiang Ning belatedly realized she had been confined.
By the time she reacted, the door opened and closed again, leaving her alone in the entire villa.
Jiang Ning chased a few steps and shouted angrily through the door: “You’re looking for someone who absolutely can’t come back. Do you know how far away another world is? She’s already gone; can you stop obsessing over it!”
