Jiang Ningyan closed her eyes in horror.
The expected pain did not come.
Instead, another huge force pushed her away in an instant.
Smell it thoroughly?
Jiang Ningyan's heart tightened, but it was too late to say anything.
The familiar darkness surrounded her from all sides.
A familiar electronic voice sounded, [Host, we meet again.]
Jiang Ningyan's eyelids jumped, "Why is it you?"
006 was slightly embarrassed. [It's like this. After you left, we detected that the male protagonist's dark energy was too high, which could cause the small world to collapse at any time, so...]
Jiang Ningyan raised her eyebrows, "I understand, you are begging me."
006 humbly said, "Host, as long as you can help me, the price is negotiable."
"Five million, cashed in this world."
[Mr. Duo?] The system's electronic sound changed its pitch.
Jiang Ningyan sneered, "If you don't want to give it to me, forget it."
The system remained silent for a long time before finally agreeing, "Okay, but to avoid inflation, the amount must be converted to the 1980s."
Jiang Ningyan nodded proudly and asked, "Where's the system reward that was deducted last time?"
The system gnawed its electronic teeth, "Of course, I'll give it back to you."
Jiang Ningyan was satisfied, "I agree."
She actually wanted to return to this world, but the system was too abominable and it would be a waste not to cheat her.
006 seemed so angry that he didn't want to talk to her anymore and just started teleporting.
When she opened her eyes again, Jiang Ningyan was already in that familiar alley.
She grabbed the fat boy playing nearby and asked, "What year is it now?"
The little fat boy was silly and talked for a long time before Jiang Ningyan realized that it was already more than a year later.
Looking at the Lu family gate not far away, she felt a little nervous.
Is Lu Bingchuan at home?
What will be your reaction when you see her again?
She took a deep breath and was about to step out of the alley.
A military green jeep drove over from afar and stopped in front of the Lu family's door.
The one driving the car was the program, but the passenger seat was... Jiang Haitang?
Jiang Ningyan blinked to make sure she was not mistaken.
Compared to how she remembered, Jiang Haitang had completely changed.
She has fluffy big wavy hair, high-waisted jeans that show off her straight legs, a high-necked sweater on her upper body, and a pair of sunglasses hanging on her chest.
With makeup on, her skin is white and her lips are bright.
A fashionable girl indeed.
Jiang Haitang got out of the car, but didn't rush in. Instead, she smiled and opened the back door, waiting for the people inside to get out.
When Jiang Ningyan saw that person's figure, she felt like she was hit hard in the heart and had difficulty breathing for a while.
The man had a stern expression and sharp eyes. His tall and straight figure wrapped in military uniform gave him an imposing aura.
After saying something briefly to Jiang Haitang, he walked into the Lu family's gate.
Jiang Haitang smiled happily and followed him closely.
It wasn't until the Lu family's door closed that Jiang Ningyan came to her senses.
Someone was talking quietly.
"Commander Lu was so kind to Haitang. When he heard she wanted to go back to her hometown, he put down his work and went with her."
"Yes, she can still meet such a good man after being divorced. All the clothes and jewelry she wears are bought by Chief Lu."
Jiang Ningyan looked in the direction of the voice and saw two unfamiliar young wives chatting while holding their children.
She walked over and asked, "Sister-in-law, is that young woman the daughter-in-law of the Lu family?"
The round-faced woman looked her over and said, "Not married yet, but soon, probably in the next few months."
Another person continued with a smile, "I heard that the Lu family's parents are very anxious and are urging them to decide every day."
Jiang Ningyan didn't know what expression to make.
She only knew that she had completely lost the courage to step into the Lu family.
The dress she was wearing was still the same one she wore when she left, and the priceless necklace was still around her neck.
Besides that, she was penniless.
Half an hour later, Jiang Ningyan walked into the largest pawnshop in Beijing and sold the necklace.
She thought that such a valuable item would be difficult to sell.
As soon as the money from the system arrives, she will redeem the necklace immediately.
Afterwards, she booked a room at the guesthouse.
The next day, she got up before dawn and went straight to the Lu family.
She didn't believe everything the two women said. She only believed what she saw.
After waiting for an hour, Jiang Ningyan saw a familiar jeep.
"This is the car, follow it."
The driver looked embarrassed. "I don't dare drive a military car. This..."
A few bills were handed to him, and his face changed, "Follow!"
After driving for a while, the jeep stopped in front of the Grand Theater.
Lu Bingchuan got off the car, and not far away, a slim figure immediately walked towards him.
It’s Lin Jingwan.
The driver's eyes widened, and he probably guessed what was going on.
He looked at Jiang Ningyan sympathetically and said, "Miss, if these soldiers have problems with their conduct, they will be dealt with seriously. If he does you wrong, report him to your superiors!"
Jiang Ningyan shook her head, got out of the car and followed.
There were a lot of people in the Grand Theater. After entering the ticket hall, Lu Bingchuan went directly to the window to queue up to buy tickets.
Lin Jingwan stood beside him, waiting for him with a smile on her face.
After buying the tickets, the two walked together very naturally.
The man is handsome and the woman is beautiful, they are a perfect match.
Their seats were next to each other, and after they sat down, Jiang Ningyan could no longer see them.
Yesterday he accompanied Jiang Haitang back to her parents' home, and today he went to the theater with Lin Jingwan. He is truly a master of time management.
Could it be that the "darkness value" that the system mentioned means that Lu Bingchuan's personality changed drastically and he started to have women everywhere?
"Comrade, why are you crying?"
The ticket inspector walked up to her and said gently, "Do you need help?"
Jiang Ningyan subconsciously touched her face and found that she was crying.
She said thank you in a panic and ran out of the theater quickly.
The system asked her to lower the male protagonist's black value, but she couldn't face Lu Bingchuan like this at all.
After thinking it over, she took a bus to the train station and bought a ticket to the south.
She is going to Hong Kong City.
…
In the theater.
The play hadn't started yet and most of the audience were chatting.
Lu Bingchuan stared at the dark curtain and said in a cold voice, "Comrade Lin, just say what you want to say."
Lin Jingwan didn't dare to look at him. She lowered her head and pinched the hem of her skirt anxiously.
"I'm sorry to take up your time, I just wanted to ask you a question..."
She mustered up her courage and whispered, "Comrade Jiang has been gone for so long, have you ever considered finding another suitable person to start a family with?"
The Lu family is powerful and their status in Beijing is unshakable, but their only son has yet to get married, and the elders cannot help but be anxious.
She took advantage of this and secretly called Uncle Lu to tell him her thoughts.
The two families have had a long-term friendship and are well-matched. She is beautiful, knowledgeable and cultured, and is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate to be the daughter-in-law of the Lu family.
After a few seconds, there was no response.
Lin Jingwan looked up timidly and met the man's black eyes filled with cold and murderous intent.
