145 just sit like this for the whole night
“Cousin.”
It was a call from su mu.
“Yanyan, I saw some videos posted on your School Forum.”
Su mu had ordered his men to investigate Xuan wanrou. Although the investigation was almost complete and there was no need to keep an eye on her, Xuan wanrou had just caused trouble for Shi Yan. He wanted to keep an eye on her for a few more days, so he did not immediately transfer back the people he had sent. Therefore, everything that happened in Haicheng University, especially those related to Shi Yan and Jiang Rui, could not be hidden from su mu.
“yes.” Shi Yan answered him.
then he said, ” since it’s something that will be exposed sooner or later, it’s no big deal to expose it now. rui ‘er will slowly accept it. it just might take some time. ”
“don’t worry, cousin. i will watch over her.”
of course, su mu believed her. otherwise, he wouldn’t have called her so late.
He had known about it the moment it happened, but he had not called her immediately because he felt that Jiang Rui needed time to accept it. Shi Yan wanted to look after Jiang Rui, so he did not disturb them.
It was almost ten O ‘clock. He thought that Shi Yan had returned to the dormitory and was not with Jiang Rui, so he called.
“call me if you need anything,”
su mu had wanted to ask shi yan if she wanted to deal with xuan wanrou, but then he thought that since shi yan had not mentioned xuan wanrou, she must have had other arrangements, so he did not ask.
“alright,” he said.
” okay, ” she answered, but su mu didn’t say anything more and didn’t have any intention of hanging up.
“Cousin, just say what you want to say,” Shi Yan said bluntly.
the other party hesitated for a moment before finally saying, ” ” yanyan, did you know that qu bocheng has come to haicheng? ”
shi yan’s hand, which was about to flip through the book, paused.”Yes, I know.”
his tone was as calm and calm as usual.
“then you’re the one who ran!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtjust as he was about to say something, su mu’s voice stopped.
“Cousin, you want to ask me if I want to see him?” Shi Yan said with a normal expression.
without waiting for su mu’s reply, she said,”of course i’ll see him. but i’m not sure when i’ll see him.”
She couldn’t possibly avoid everyone for the rest of her life.
in particular, when jiang rui mentioned jiang che previously, she said ” we share the same bloodline “. not only was he of the same bloodline as the jiang family in haicheng, but he also used to live in the capital. she already had a rough guess of jiang che’s identity.
she could avoid it, but jiang che might not.
Moreover, she was going to be with Jiang che. Sooner or later, she would have to face what she had to face.
Since that was the case, it was inevitable to meet.
then let’s meet.
“Then you’re the one who ran!”
Su mu paused for a moment and said,”it’s good that you know what to do.” rest early and see you at home this weekend.”
“alright,” he said.
After hanging up the phone, Shi Yan held the phone in silence for a moment before she put it down and opened the book to read.
It wasn’t cold in early autumn at night in Haicheng. It was a little chilly at most, but Shi Yan had worn a coat when she went out, so she didn’t feel cold.
it was already midnight by the time he finished reading the thick book.
for shi yan, who had always lived a regular life, this actually didn’t feel good.
She felt a little dizzy and drowsy.
After she was done reading, she closed the book and put it aside. She rubbed her eyes, crossed her hands on her bent knees, and leaned against the wall with her eyes closed.
In the room, Jiang Rui was not asleep either.
She was still sitting on the sofa with her arms around her legs and did not turn on the lights.
his phone was placed on the coffee table in front of him. it was not turned off, but it was silent.
Ever since she came back, her phone had rung many times. At first, it was Jiang Cheng who called. There were many calls, video calls, and messages, but she didn’t answer or reply.
After about 9:30, he stopped calling or sending any messages.
The old lady, Jiang Qing, and Kong Xiangxiang’s calls were around midnight.
jiang rui didn’t know if they were calling her at this time because they had verified xuan wanrou’s words or if they had found out about what had happened at school.
She didn’t need to look to know that the farce in the afternoon must have been spread all over the school forum. She believed that by tomorrow morning, everyone would know that she was not the biological daughter of the Jiang family.
this was the truth. she couldn’t even lie to herself that it was fake, but she couldn’t accept this fact now.
old madam jiang only made one call, but jiang rui didn’t pick up, so she didn’t call again. instead, jiang qing and kong xiangxiang kept calling her on and off from midnight to three in the morning.
Even the Jiang family’s second master Jiang Fan and second Madam Fang Xiaoyu who were always busy with research, as well as the third master Jiang Muchen who was always busy with filming and did not often return home, were alarmed.
he called her many times.
jiang rui’s heart was in a mess. she just wanted to be alone, but they kept calling her and couldn’t contact her. she was afraid that they would be worried.
finally, jiang rui opened her family group chat and sent a message: [ i’m fine. everyone should rest early. i’ll see you at home after i’m done with military training. ]
the message was sent, but when she typed the word ” home “, no one knew how long she hesitated.
As soon as she sent the message, the group chat was immediately filled with messages.
But Jiang Rui didn’t even look.
Once again, she placed the black screen of her phone back on the coffee table.
She continued to hug her knees and curl up on the sofa, looking out at the dark night sky and the dim lights under the dark night sky through the floor-to-ceiling glass window.
She wasn’t a pretentious person, and she wouldn’t cause any trouble at home, but she needed time to accept all this.
Not much, just one night.
He would let her be willful for one night.
Speaking of which, even though she was a little arrogant and willful from time to time, she had never done anything willful.
this was the only time.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmshe sat there until seven in the morning. the alarm on her phone rang, and jiang rui slowly retracted her gaze from the floor-to-ceiling window.
She got down from the sofa.
However, after sitting for too long, his legs were a little numb and his limbs were a little stiff.
he moved his stiff limbs a little and went to the bathroom.
She brushed her teeth, washed her face, and changed into a set of clean clothes. Then, she took her phone and prepared to go downstairs to buy breakfast.
when she opened the door, she saw shi yan, who was leaning against the wall with his eyes closed. jiang rui’s expressionless face was immediately filled with shock.”Yan?”
in fact, shi yan didn’t sleep deeply and was in a daze.
That was why she woke up when she heard the noise.
he looked over.
he saw jiang rui’s shock.
“morning, rui ‘er.”
it was really her character, even at this moment she still had an indifferent expression.
“You, why are you here? when did you arrive?”
Glancing at the blanket Shi Yan had spread on the ground and the book and bag beside her, Jiang Rui knew that she must have been sitting there for a long time.
“why didn’t you knock before you came?”
Shi Yan wanted to stand up, but her feet were a little numb, so she simply continued to sit. She looked up and smiled at Jiang Rui.”I was worried about you, so I left a GPS tracker on your phone when I borrowed it yesterday.”
jiang rui quickly took off the phone case and saw that there was indeed something stuck on the back of the phone.
She had mixed feelings, not because Shi Yan had secretly placed a GPS tracker on her phone, but because Shi Yan had prepared it for her so early.
When Shi Yan had borrowed her phone to make a call, Xuan wanrou had not come.
in other words, shi yan didn’t know what happened after that.
Take precautions?
for this kind of thing, only those who were especially attentive would plan for a rainy day.
