Chapter 209 - As She Wishes Then
Ni Manman's was not the sharpest tool in the shed and had yet to recognize Jiang Wan's disdain for her.
She thought about it. Jiang Chenglang had treated Wan Wan harshly just now. Wan Wan must be very saddened. Perhaps she's hiding under the blanket and secretly crying, not wanting her to see it.
Wan Wan was so determined. Perhaps it would be better if she didn't embarrass Wan Wan any further.
Therefore, Ni Manman gently patted the quilt and comforted her, "Wan Wan, you should rest well. Don't be sad and get well soon. I'll see you at the banquet!"
Jiang Wan responded in a low voice. Then, Ni Manman left.
When the door closed again, Jiang Wan crawled out from under the blanket.
Her face was dark and scary. She gripped the blanket tightly as if she was going to tear it apart.
She didn't expect that having Jiang Chenglang come over this time would prove to be a double loss. Jiang Chenglang was even more dissatisfied with her now. If this isn't working out, she would be left with no other choice but to go down that path...
...
After leaving Jiang Wan's house, Jiang Chenglang was still in an agitated and depressed mood.
The little bit of tenderness he had left for Jiang Wan from spending the past twelve years together seemed to have finally been cut off by her own hands.
Originally, after Jiang Chenglang had found out what had happened at school, there had been a constant knot in his heart. That was the reason he had not contacted Jiang Wan for so long after sending her away.
It was because the layer of disappointment in his heart had been covered with another layer of disappointment.
Today, he had come by because he had heard that Jiang Wan was sick. He thought, as an older brother, he should come and take a look.
He originally wanted to wait for Jiang Wan to recover before mentioning this matter. He didn't expect Jiang Wan to bring it up on her own initiative. His heartache from seeing Jiang Wan's sickly appearance was instantly wiped out by Jiang Wan's act of once again trying to shift the blame onto Jiang Yu.
She was blind to her own faults.
Perhaps, this was her true nature. He had been trying to deceive himself, thinking that she has changed but what if this was her true nature?
It was his fault for being so shortsighted.
He thought of something and gave Rong Qi a call. His eyes were deep.
"Help me keep an eye on Jiang Wan and Lu Hetai... Find out everyone that she had come into contact with before and report everything to me."
Jiang Chenglang smiled coldly.
She wants to attend the Feng family banquet, eh?
Alright.
As she wishes then.
He wanted to see what she would try to pull this time.
...
Jiang Yu yawned. As she walked out of the kitchen, she caught Jiang Chenglang just coming home.
She had already prepared herself to withstand Jiang Wan's attacks but she was surprised to find that there was no one standing behind Jiang Chenglang.
Jiang Yu raised her eyebrows in surprise.
Jiang Chenglang actually hadn't brought Jiang Wan home?
Seeing Jiang Yu, Jiang Chenglang's face relaxed a little. He said, "Xiao Yu, don't get too close to me. I'm going to change my clothes, I don't want to pass on anything dirty to you."
As he spoke, he frowned and said, "I should wash my hands first. My hands are filthy."
Jiang Yu: "? ? ?"
Hadn't he just went to visit Jiang Wan?
Why did he make it look like he had just picked up trash?
However, Jiang Yu's curiosity only last for a second before it passed. Her time was precious and she shouldn't waste it on such irrelevant matters.
When Jiang Yu had finished her work and came down from her room to eat, she saw that the house was being cleaned and smelled heavily of disinfectant.
Jiang Yu wrinkled her nose and went to eat without giving it much thought.
...
On the day of the Feng family banquet.
Feng Linbai opened his eyes.
He looked at the unfamiliar-yet-familiar world in front of him and slowly, a smile appeared on his face.
