Chapter 65 -65: Invite Her to the Wrap-up Party

No sooner had I arrived than I overheard Jiang Leyi’s complaints, “…”

Watching Jiang Nanshu’s still seething anger, I hesitated about whether to greet her or not.

Just because you’ve cussed out big brother, doesn’t mean you can curse at me too, huh.

In the end, I still sat across from Jiang Nanshu with my tray of food.

Looking at the two unexpected guests in front of her, Jiang Nanshu lifted her eyebrows in surprise, glanced at Jiang Leyi, then at the silent Ji Ze, and decided to ignore this younger brother. Instead, she asked Jiang Leyi, “What are you doing here? Don’t you have school? Always running to my school, and even bringing him along, are you trying to witness a touching display of sibling affection or something?”

Ji Ze’s hand tightened around his chopsticks, likely reminded of Jiang Nanshu’s ruthless words from before, and he turned his head, “Hmph, I’m here to pick up Sister Le Yi, not to see you.”

Jiang Nanshu propped her chin, “Oh, that’s a relief, I’m not in the mood to see you guys.”

Ji Ze once again widened his eyes to look at her, a hint of redness in his gaze.

Jiang Nanshu felt disheartened, why does this brat love to cry so much?

[Don’t cry, don’t cry! Last time you threw chestnuts at me, this time I definitely won’t coddle you! Eh, did I speak too harshly? He has his own sister, why is he getting upset over a few words from me?]

Jiang Leyi looked at the gloomy Ji Ze and, with a helpless gesture, pushed a box toward Jiang Nanshu with an expressionless face, “Can we come in?”

Jiang Nanshu opened the box to find a shiny, sparkling green gemstone.

She gritted her teeth and pocketed the gemstone, “Well, the school isn’t mine, come if you want. Want me to give you another tour while we’re at it?”

Jiang Leyi, “…”

“I’ve finished shooting that web series, and the crew has packed up. The show will air in a month.”

Jiang Nanshu gave her a puzzled look, “So what? You came here just to tell me this? Cough, even though you gave me a gemstone, our relationship is adversarial at best; I can only promise not to be harsh to you.”

She gestured with her hand indicating she’d only be a tiny bit nicer to Jiang Leyi.

Jiang Leyi pursed her lips; as long as she could communicate properly with Jiang Nanshu, it was fine.

She cleared her throat, “I heard something happened to you at school, I came specifically to check on you. I happened to bump into Xiaoze, so I brought him along. It looks like you’ve resolved the matter, right?”

Jiang Nanshu was toying with her food, “It’s resolved, but it cost twenty million.” She gave her a suspicious glance, “You didn’t come just to talk about this, did you? When have you ever cared about me so much?”

[She can’t have figured out that I’m just pretending to oppose her, right? If this backfires, I might as well jump into the river and be done with it!]

Jiang Leyi, “…”

Does it have to be this extreme?!

She took a deep breath and gave a sneering laugh, “Who cares about you? I’d rather you’d run into trouble.”

[Good, just a misunderstanding, it scared me for a moment.]

Jiang Nanshu curled her lip, “I knew it, you never bring good news. Just so you know, I’m not giving this gemstone back.”

Jiang Leyi was about to say something when she felt Ji Ze lightly tug at her clothes and saw him shaking his head ever so slightly.

His eyes brimmed with too many emotions, but sorrow was the most evident to Jiang Leyi.

Ah, this kid… he clearly wanted to see Jiang Nan, yet feared her cold stare, wrapping himself in a layer of bristles. Perhaps he really was afraid that Jiang Nanshu would hurt him once more. Yet despite all this, he still couldn’t bear to hear anyone speak ill of Jiang Nanshu, not even his own sister.

“I won’t ask for a gift once it’s given. I’m here because there’s something I need… Can you accompany me to the wrap party for the web series tomorrow?” After Jiang Leyi finished speaking, she nervously awaited Jiang Nanshu’s response.

“What?” Jiang Nanshu wondered if she’d misheard, “You want me to go with you to your celebration?”
