Chapter 137: The Girl Was Bleeding, Want Help Checking the Wound
Su Muzhi walked up to Jiang Linyuan with a beaming smile:
"Am I interrupting you?"
"How could that be, Xiao Su? When did you become so insecure? Does standing next to me make you uncomfortable?"
Jiang Linyuan said to Su Muzhi.
A surprise reinforcement! Good Xiao Su!
"Hehe."
Su Muzhi let out a lukewarm laugh, her gaze casually landing on the Qian Yan in front of her:
"You sure can hop around, like a flea."
Qian Yan said with complete indifference:
With that, she let out a sneer:
"Or are you scared? Looks like my threat really hits home."
Su Muzhi gave a disdainful smile:
"How laughable. I don't even want to waste any energy on you."
"Is it that you don't want to, or can't?"
Qian Yan said nonchalantly.
The Su Family's foundation was indeed deep, but it wasn't all-powerful. Not to mention that her own family's business ran on completely parallel tracks to the Su Family.
Even if they wanted to make a move, it would take some time.
The worst-case scenario was her family's business taking a hit, and her family had some interest ties with the higher-ups.
If it really came to bleeding them dry, they wouldn't just sit by and do nothing.
A strange smile crept onto Su Muzhi's face:
"Is that so? It seems you've really been spoiled by your family. You don't know anything."
Qian Yan's brow furrowed:
"What do you mean?"
"Hehe, you guess."
Su Muzhi covered her mouth and laughed.
Bluffing to scare me?
Qian Yan instinctively wanted to contact her family, but she didn't want to show weakness on the spot. She just looked at Jiang Linyuan and said:
"I'll come find you again."
With that, she got into her sports car and drove off, the engine roaring.
What kind of ridiculous chosen of Slaanesh was that?
She came for no reason, and then ran off without a clue.
"Hehe, she shouldn't have the energy to come find you for a while."
Su Muzhi turned her head to look at Jiang Linyuan, a smile on her face.
"Xiao Su, you were too slow on the draw! You've shamed the face of the Shanghai Heiress!"
Jiang Linyuan said.
"It wasn't me who made the move, so the shame isn't on me."
Su Muzhi smiled, her gaze shifting to Yu Songsong and Jiang Zhiyao:
"Hmm, I think this is our second time meeting in person."
"I'm Su Muzhi."
Jiang Zhiyao looked at her and suddenly said:
"Is that woman Qian Yan connected to Jiang Linyuan because of you?"
As always, everything revolved around him.
Su Muzhi narrowed her eyes and smiled:
"Why don't you ask him instead?"
This Xiao Su! Deflecting trouble elsewhere! Wicked!
"That Qian Yan has a screw loose. Even if she saw someone on the street, she'd latch onto them."
Jiang Linyuan said offhandedly.
"Then does she latch onto you?"
Jiang Zhiyao pointed at Su Muzhi and asked again.
This time, both Jiang Linyuan and Su Muzhi were stunned for a moment.
Hehe, interesting. Possessiveness born from prolonged over-reliance?
Sometimes, having a close sibling relationship was a bit troublesome.
Su Muzhi looked at Jiang Zhiyao and shook her head.
Just a little sister who hadn't grown up. There was no need to take it to heart.
"Xiao Su and I are good friends. Don't be rude."
Jiang Linyuan said.
Jiang Zhiyao stared at Su Muzhi's smiling face, lost in thought.
"Hehe, Jiang-classmate's little sister is quite cute."
Su Muzhi's gaze shifted again, landing on Yu Songsong, who was staring intently at her:
"Compared to some people, she's far better."
This person is so annoying. I really do hate her!
Yu Songsong looked at the smile on Su Muzhi's face, and a nameless anxiety and rejection churned inside her.
When they first met, she had struck her own mother.
And she had made a disgustingly condescending comment about her.
"A low-budget version of me? Was he insulting me with those words?"
Back then, she couldn't understand that sentence. But now, watching the interaction between Su Muzhi and Jiang Linyuan, all her previous doubts were instantly unraveled.
The two had known each other longer than she had. In the Senior's eyes, she was the inferior version of Su Muzhi.
A strange sourness welled up in Yu Songsong's heart. The emotion came too fast, too suddenly, too fiercely.
She suppressed the surging feelings within her and stared at Su Muzhi:
"This should be our first time meeting in person, right? What you said was really rude."
"First time?"
Su Muzhi smiled, as if she had seen through Yu Songsong's thoughts, and nodded:
"Yes, this is our first time meeting."
Noticing the smile on her face, Yu Songsong's hands unconsciously clenched.
It wasn't their first time meeting, but her fierce pride refused to admit she remembered right then.
Su Muzhi had just met the Senior a little earlier than her. It was no big deal, no big deal.
"But that's fine. We'll be seeing each other often from now on."
Su Muzhi looked at Yu Songsong, the corners of her mouth involuntarily turning up.
How interesting. It felt like things would be fun in the future. Twisted and strong-willed, and it didn't just show in family matters.
In romantic relationships too, huh. Hehe.
"Are you guys planning to go out? Mind if I tag along?"
Su Muzhi looked at Jiang Linyuan and asked.
Plotting some mischief again, aren't you! Didn't you see the Thief Saint's lips about to bleed from biting them!
And going out to play together? I think you just want to mess with the Thief Saint!
Jiang Linyuan noticed Yu Songsong's uneasy expression, but the priority was to get rid of Xiao Su!
"Xiao Su, don't force yourself into a circle you don't belong to. We're going for some intense exercise. You won't be able to keep up."
"Hehe, is that so?"
Su Muzhi glanced at Yu Songsong, thought for a moment, and simply nodded:
"I don't really like going out in big groups either. Next time, Jiang-classmate can go out with me alone."
With that, she turned and walked into the school gate. Before leaving, she took one last look at Yu Songsong:
"I hope that when Songsong-classmate and I meet again in the future, you won't pretend not to know me."
Yu Songsong forced a smile:
"Of course not."
I'd rather we never meet again.
Jiang Linyuan frowned. Had Xiao Su said something when she met the Thief Saint before?
He felt like there was something fishy between the two of them.
"Just the two of you go today. I suddenly remembered I have something to do."
Jiang Zhiyao looked at Su Muzhi's retreating figure and suddenly spoke up.
Haji Yao, what's wrong with you again!
Jiang Linyuan turned his head to look at Jiang Zhiyao and asked:
"What's so important that it's more important than your brother?"
"My period came. I feel terrible. I want to rest. What can you do for me?"
What can I do? Help you check the wound?
And there's no way your period came now! Is that even the time?
You clearly want to investigate Xiao Su!
Ah, forget it. Whatever. Go ahead. When Haji Yao hits a brick wall and gets hurt, she'll know how wicked Xiao Su is.
"Drink more hot water."
Jiang Linyuan said helplessly, turning to look at the Thief Saint beside him.
One more person to deal with.
"You didn't get your period, did you?"
Jiang Linyuan asked.
"I can have cold drinks, I brought a power bank, and I have my ID with me!"
Yu Songsong suddenly got excited.
Screw Su Muzhi, that was all fake! Only the Senior by her side was real!
Jiang Linyuan didn't know what to say, so he just forced a smile and said perfunctorily:
"Haha, what a coincidence. I didn't get mine either."
Yu Songsong: ?
