Chapter 67: It’s Not What You Said—i’m Yours
This was the first time she had seen someone not afraid of Huo Chengxuan, that bully.
The other party was still just a girl.
Huo Chengxuan, sitting on the container, jumped down from above, holding an empty wine bottle in his hand: “You’ve got guts, so let’s see if I have to go to jail after I kill you.”
Wei Jin stood directly in front of Jiang Ning. He had promised to protect her, so no matter who was in front of him, Wei Jin couldn’t back down.
“We’re all men, so don’t make things hard for a little girl, okay?” Wei Jin spoke up.
Huo Chengxuan narrowed his eyes: “What the hell are you? This isn’t your place to talk.”
His gaze then turned to Su Wanyuan, sneering: “I’ll give you one more chance, come with me, or with him.”
He pointed at Xie Jingyan, giving Su Wanyuan a choice.
Su Wanyuan was a bit scared, but she still didn’t move: “I’m not going with you.”
She cast a pleading gaze toward Shen Jinhe: “Can you save us? I really don’t know this person. He showed up wanting to take me away, and because of that, I got my companions involved.”
Su Wanyuan could tell at a glance that Shen Jinhe was different. She dared to talk to this bully like that, so her family background must be impressive, possibly even better than Jiang Ning’s.
She didn’t want to ask Jiang Ning for help, let alone owe her a favor.
Shen Jinhe frowned, feeling ashamed of Huo Chengxuan’s behavior: “You’d even do something like openly abducting a woman on the street. You’re really disgracing the Huo Family. Do you really think the law in China is just for show?”
“How does it bother you if I take something I’m interested in? Once I set my sights on something, there’s no such thing as giving it up.” He looked at everyone present with a sinister glare: “Shen Jinhe, if you want to take someone away today, you can only choose one. If you take this woman, this man stays here for me to vent on.”
He was determined to get one.
Shen Jinhe furrowed her brows.
Su Wanyuan’s face turned pale, nervously looking toward Xie Jingyan.
And Xie Jingyan, at the center of the vortex, remained very calm the whole time.
He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand: “No need to go to such trouble.”
He pushed away a group of thugs and walked toward Jiang Ning: “I’m not Su Wanyuan’s boyfriend, and I have nothing to do with her.”
Under Jiang Ning’s gaze, he walked to her side and pointed toward Huo Chengxuan: “I’m with her. She’s my sponsor. If there’s any issue, you can take it up with her.”
Sure enough, Huo Chengxuan’s attention was drawn.
The firepower instantly focused on Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning: “…”
What a move to redirect the disaster—truly brilliant.
She glared at him, grinding her teeth: “You did that on purpose?”
Xie Jingyan lowered his head, his face still stunningly beautiful even with bruises: “Didn’t you say it? I’m your person. I’m a bit serious about things—when someone promises something, it counts for life.”
Jiang Ning: “…”
If the timing weren’t wrong, he really wanted to applaud this movie star Xie Jingyan.
Brilliant, brilliant.
He hadn’t spoken to her like that this morning.
Just a while ago, he had warned her not to get involved with him, afraid of misunderstandings.
In this situation, to shake off this madman’s targeting, he didn’t even hesitate to deny it outright, shifting the lunatic’s anger onto her.
As if Jiang Ning had something going on with him.
Wei Jin’s heart nearly shattered behind them.
Good news: He met a stunning beauty who made his heart race wildly.
Bad news: The stunning beauty’s important matter seemed to be rescuing her boyfriend.
Jiang Ning directly stepped back to the side, putting some distance between her and Xie Jingyan.
“Not close, stay away.”
Xie Jingyan chuckled lightly, his tone cold: “When you were using me as a shield, you seemed pretty close.”
Wei Jin couldn’t help but interject from the side: “Jiang Ning, is he the important matter you mentioned?”
Jiang Ning quickly denied it: “I’m just here to watch the show, not to save him.”
Wei Jin glanced at Xie Jingyan. His face was like fresh snow after the first clearing, giving a clean, distant feeling, while also stirring a desire to hide him away privately.
In summary, he was extremely seductive to a guy.
He didn’t understand—why did a guy have to be so eye-catching!
Just because he was too eye-catching, Wei Jin even knew him.
He became famous with just his face. Probably no girl in any middle school in Jin Cheng didn’t know Xie Jingyan.
Even a big guy like him had heard his famous name.
He looked suspicious: “But he said you’re his sponsor.”
Jiang Ning said expressionlessly: “Just a servant.”
Completely ignored, Huo Chengxuan exploded: “I’ll kill you all!”
The group Shen Jinhe had brought quickly surrounded Shen Jinhe and Su Wanyuan, protecting their safety.
Wei Jin pulled Jiang Ning back: “Hurry and go. This guy seems mentally off. He’s only been at Seventh Middle School for a little over a week, and he broke a male student’s leg. His family paid three hundred thousand, the matter was dropped, and that student was so scared he transferred schools.”
Jiang Ning wasn’t panicked: “Because this thing is a super male, how could he not be crazy?”
“Damn, can a super male thing really exist on Earth? Isn’t that just harming others?”
While they were talking.
Shen Jinhe and Huo Chengxuan’s group had already started fighting.
Huo Chengxuan’s gaze searched for Jiang Ning like a hunter. Seeing her about to run, he quickly grabbed the wine bottle and chased after her.
“Go, go, go.” Wei Jin tried to pull Jiang Ning.
But she didn’t move.
She counted in her mouth: “3, 2, 1.”
“Nobody move!” Four police appeared from behind. Seeing the chaotic scene, they immediately shouted sternly.
Everyone stopped their actions and turned to look. Seeing it was the police, their faces turned pale.
“Everyone come with us.”
Huo Chengxuan was the first to object: “My brother is Huo Yu. Dare to arrest me, and I’ll have my brother fire you all!”
The police were all shocked upon hearing this.
What a brat, what an outlaw.
The police weren’t pushovers: “Even if your brother is the king of heaven, you still have to come with us.”
Huo Chengxuan struggled and hit one of the police with the wine bottle.
He directly earned himself a pair of silver handcuffs.
Jiang Ning’s group was forced to go to the police station to give statements.
Nearly thirty people in total.
Those who participated in the fight had already started squatting.
While Xie Jingyan and Su Wanyuan, who got beaten, were in the interrogation room giving statements.
Jiang Ning, Wei Jin, and Shen Jinhe, who hadn’t gotten a chance to act, were just glaring at each other.
Shen Jinhe looked at Jiang Ning and reached out her hand: “Hi, I’m Shen Jinhe. Nice to meet you.”
Jiang Ning looked at her somewhat puzzled.
Wasn’t this the female lead’s best friend group?
Why get to know her.
But you don’t hit a smiling hand, so Jiang Ning also reached out, gave a simple shake, and concisely stated her name: “Jiang Ning.”
Shen Jinhe’s expression instantly turned strange: “You’re Jiang Ning?”
Jiang Ning smiled at her: “The real deal.”
Shen Jinhe laughed dashingly after a moment: “I’ve heard so much about you. Seeing is believing—you’re a bit different from the rumors.”
“Is that so.” Jiang Ning responded perfunctorily.
“I go to the private aristocratic school in Jin Cheng, just two streets from Ninth Middle School. I heard you made it to the national competitive mathematics finals. What a coincidence, me too.”
