Chapter 77: I Know A Man’s Promise Is Like Dog Shit!
Who is it?
Who’s speaking.
Su Wanyuan struggled to open her eyes.
Her whole body was soaked in sweat, staring blankly at the ceiling somewhat dazedly.
She… had just had a dream.
Those fragmented images that squeezed into her mind were actually scenes of her marrying Xie Jingyan.
In the scenes, she smiled very happily, and Xie Jingyan looked at her very tenderly.
Is it a hallucination? But it felt so real.
Until her gaze saw the line of words left on her arm: Please Gu Lanli and win back his heart.
Su Wanyuan’s body shook, and inexplicably, that sentence from her sleep dream rang in her ears again: “Do you want to change everything? Then listen to me.”
Su Wanyuan’s heart immediately pounded like a drum.
She wiped it with her hand and found it came off with one wipe, leaving no traces.
So, as long as she followed this suddenly appearing guidance, she could change everything…
…
Jiang Ning was very annoyed.
Annoyed in all sorts of ways.
Her online relationship partner was suddenly hot and cold toward her; although he responded to every sentence, he seemed very tired.
Jiang Ning was instead left hanging in limbo.
It’s just that they haven’t met in person, is it such a big deal!
And another thing was Gu Lanli; because he returned to the Gu Family without bringing Su Wanyuan, his dad quickly gave him money to use again.
He’s his own son after all; a lesson would suffice.
So early in the morning, he was waiting at the Jiang Family entrance like before to go to school with Jiang Ning.
Father Jiang passing by saw this and grabbed a broom to chase him away, yelling that no bad thing should stand at his family’s entrance.
Gu Lanli felt aggrieved from being hit, and he knew his previous little tricks were too crude; he was already in the wrong, so he could only dodge while shouting: “Uncle, I’m waiting for Jiang Ning to go to school together; she promised.”
Father Jiang was shocked and froze in place.
He turned his head and saw Jiang Ning yawning lazily as she came out.
Jiang Ning met Father Jiang’s heartbroken gaze.
Inexplicably, she read a line in it: “Why can’t you stop liking to eat shit like a dog.”
Jiang Ning was full of question marks, then saw Gu Lanli waving at her: “Ning Ning, I’m here.”
Jiang Ning: “…”
Who let this b come.
Jiang Ning wondered: “What are you doing here? I didn’t tell you to come to my house.”
Gu Lanli felt a bit aggrieved: “Yesterday you said you couldn’t let go of me, that you forgave me, that you wanted to marry me; was it all deceiving me?”
Father Jiang: “!!!”
He turned his head in shock to look at Jiang Ning: “You little rascal, this thing came to harm you; you have no brains and fell for someone else’s honey trap again, right? Jiang Ning, no dating until after high school graduation… no, until after university graduation! Otherwise, I’ll break that kid’s legs!”
Jiang Ning: “…”
Gu Lanli: “…”
Gu Lanli couldn’t help defending himself: “Uncle, I’ve really repented; I have Ning Ning in my heart; I was just blinded before; now I realize that only Ning Ning loves me as before.”
Father Jiang: “…”
He roared: “Shut your mouth! I’m a man, I know men’s promises are like dog shit!”
He pulled Jiang Ning and said earnestly: “Daughter, stay far away from that kind of person; he specializes in deceiving simple cute little girls like you; oh my, he’s a bad egg.”
“If you want handsome ones, Dad will find you a hundred, but don’t go for this Gu kid; he dared to frame you last time, next time he’ll incite you to steal our company’s confidential information!”
Father Jiang extrapolated, imagining all the paths where Jiang Corporation would soon fall into irredeemable ruin.
Jiang Ning saw Father Jiang was quite angry and patted his hand comfortingly: “Dad, I know what I’m doing; don’t worry.”
Father Jiang: “…”
He couldn’t feel reassured at all.
Afraid she’d be coaxed again.
After all, how much his own daughter used to like this Gu Lanli kid, how could he not know?
Now that she finally saw his true face, Father Jiang didn’t want Jiang Ning to fall for it again.
Jiang Ning went out, and Gu Lanli was still waiting; seeing her, his eyes lit up: “Ning Ning…”
Jiang Ning immediately raised her hand to stop him: “Don’t call me that; it makes me sick.”
Gu Lanli’s eyes dimmed a bit: “I’ve really figured it out; before, I was just blinded by Su Wanyuan; now I realize you’re the one worth my devotion; I won’t entangle with Su Wanyuan anymore; I’ll become better for you to see; I sincerely repent.”
Jiang Ning: “…”
She didn’t know what he was burning for.
But she was a bit suspicious; could a person really stop longing after being hurt once?
“Really?”
Gu Lanli promised: “Truer than real gold.”
Jiang Ning didn’t want to tangle with him: “Prove it when you can.”
“I will definitely prove it to you.”
The two arrived at school.
Su Wanyuan had a pale face and a haggard expression as she ran into them by chance.
Gu Lanli’s expression was unnatural for a moment, then he recovered to indifference, pretending not to see her.
Instead, he fussed over Jiang Ning solicitously.
As if they were a couple.
Su Wanyuan’s face had an abnormal flush; she blocked in front of Gu Lanli, looking at him stubbornly: “Can you hear me explain?”
Gu Lanli glanced at her impatiently: “What’s there to explain? Let me make it clear to you now; after explaining things clearly with you yesterday, I realized my own feelings and understood that empty feeling when Ning Ning was drifting further from me; we grew up together since childhood; I can’t leave her, so Su Wanyuan, don’t entangle me anymore; my previous like for you, just consider it fooling around; I’ve turned over a new leaf.”
Su Wanyuan pursed her dry lips, her almond eyes quickly welling up with tears, looking at Gu Lanli pitifully: “You’re mad at me, right? Lanli, if you leave me, what should I do?”
Gu Lanli was a bit stunned.
This was the scene he had anticipated for a very, very long time.
Su Wanyuan’s eyes could hold his figure, would call him “Lanli” intimately like she did to Jiang Yan, but when all this came true, his heart felt empty and unreal, making him inexplicably resistant.
“Heh, that sentence might have worked on yesterday’s Gu Lanli, but for me now, I don’t want to like you anymore; Su Wanyuan, liking you is a very tiring thing.” Gu Lanli felt exhausted.
He just wanted to quickly escape this one-sided twisted relationship.
Su Wanyuan’s figure staggered.
Her gaze turned to Jiang Ning nearby.
Jiang Ning had no expression, but Su Wanyuan felt she was watching her joke.
Taking everything that belonged to her from her side; she was very smug, right?
She swore she absolutely wouldn’t let Jiang Ning have her way.
Seeing Gu Lanli pulling Jiang Ning to leave.
Su Wanyuan had gotten caught in the rain yesterday, and with her mind shattered, she woke up with a fever this morning; her body went soft and she couldn’t hold on, fainting directly to the ground.
Jiang Ning immediately stepped back, half-raising her hands: “I didn’t push her; she fell on her own.”
Gu Lanli’s instinctive motion to support her paused.
He stood rigidly in place.
Many students passed by, pointing at Su Wanyuan on the ground: “Oh my god, her face is so red; she must have a fever.”
“Why not take her to the infirmary; something might happen later!”
