Chapter 421: Kidnap in Broad Daylight?
Uncle Jiang was still worried when he heard this. He wasn’t worried about her food or drinks, but about Su Beijiang coming to the hospital to torture the master ever so often. And it seemed he had become violent too. Uncle Jiang was worried about what this man would do to his master in future. It was best, of course, if she could leave this place. Uncle Jiang persuaded,
“Master, I know what you’re afraid of, but this place isn’t that great. Besides, Su Beijiang…”
Before he could finish, he was interrupted by Jiang Xiaoman, who told him to stop talking. Now was not the time for her to leave and it could cause trouble for others. This place was safe for the time being. That person was also not desperate enough yet to kill her. Jiang Xiaoman said resolutely,
“Okay, Uncle Jiang, listen to me. Don’t worry too much. There’s not much time left. You’d better go and get things done as soon as possible, please.”
Uncle Jiang was going to continue persuading her, but after seeing Jiang Xiaoman’s determined face, he knew that it would be useless no matter how much he tried to persuade her. Master wouldn’t leave this place, and she didn’t want to cause other people trouble. Uncle Jiang could only sigh and reply helplessly,
“Alright, I understand. I’ll go and take care of matters first.”
Uncle Jiang then turned and walked out. If only his old body was able, he would do anything for his master. After all, he didn’t have a better way to deal with that person. As soon as he was out the door, he turned around and said,
“Master, when you are ready to leave some day, you must tell me as soon as possible.”
Jiang Xiaoman knew that Uncle Jiang was doing all this for her own good. She couldn’t ignore everyone’s safety just so she could live a better life. She didn’t want to cause meaningless deaths of so many people. She could tolerate everything here; she had been here for so many years anyway. She said with a smile,
“Uncle Jiang, don’t worry. Hurry up and get to work!”
Uncle Jiang didn’t say anything more when he heard this. He knew that this matter was particularly important to the master. It might be because of something Su Beijiang had done in the afternoon. Otherwise, master wouldn’t be so anxious. Uncle Jiang left quickly to carry out his master’s instructions.
At the academy, Su Jin was very attentive as she placed food on Hou Wan’er’s plate. With a face full of flattery, she wanted to please Hou Wan’er so that Hou Wan’er wouldn’t be so angry. She didn’t get a chance to explain the last time, so there was still some misunderstanding between them. Su Jin coaxed with a smile,
“Wan’er, don’t be angry. Can you forgive me, please?”
Hou Wan’er looked at Su Jin and simply couldn’t believe it. In the past, Su Jin had been arrogant and domineering, and she always acted like she knew best. But now, in order to appease her, she held such a posture. Hou Wan’er’s face was less cold as she replied indifferently,
“Your performance is alright now. Let’s see if you can maintain it going forward.”
Hou Wan’er said this was because she wanted to know if Su Jin really wanted to reconcile with her, or if she was just doing this on a whim. She was also afraid that in a few days, Su Jin would, because of Su Xue or something else, unfriend her once again. She didn’t want to suffer such pain again.
When Su Jin heard Hou Wan’er’s words, she thought it was a form of forgiveness pending further observation. Su Jin felt a little helpless but she knew that she had hurt Wan’er badly. She picked up a piece of crab meat and put it into her mouth as she thought about how she could reconcile with Hou Wan’er as soon as possible.
Very quickly, Su Jin remembered a secret of Hou Wan’er which was known only to the two of them. It was something that Hou Wan’er had told her personally in her previous life. She immediately leaned toward Hou Wan’er and whispered,
“Wan’er, do you want to know what kind of girl that great god Jiang Shi’an likes? If you forgive me, I can help you pursue Jiang Shi’an!”
Hou Wan’er’s face instantly turned a little red. She felt as if someone had grabbed her Achilles heel; she was even a little shy. This damn Su Jin, why was she talking about this now? She looked at Su Jin angrily and snorted,
“Su Jin, don’t talk nonsense. Why would I like Jiang…”
Halfway through her sentence, Hou Wan’er came to her senses. She almost blurted it out. She looked at Gu Mengyao and Shangguan Yun’er, who were sitting across from her with curious faces. She was very worried. She didn’t know if these two girls had heard it. It was all Su Jin’s fault that she almost blurted it out.
