Chapter 247, Getting Uglier
After hearing what Jiang Suxin said, Jiang Ran opened his mouth slightly and blurted out: "So you are avoiding Luo Yuting because... you like women?!"
Not knowing how she came to this conclusion, Jiang Suxin twitched and exclaimed: "What did you say?!"
Stared at by the woman's threatening eyes, Jiang Ran shrank behind Si Xu: "What else do you want me to do? I'm telling you, I can't do things like washing clothes or cooking... Since you have my information, you should know that Jiang Ranran is a little idiot in life."
Jiang Suxin sneered: "You are good-looking. Can't I put you on the lantern tower to admire you?"
"...Huh." Jiang Ran touched his chin and thought, "It's not impossible, but I have high requirements for food, clothing and daily necessities. If you can't satisfy me, I will become uglier and uglier..."
God damn, you're getting uglier and uglier! Jiang Suxin was furious: "You're getting uglier and uglier, what does it have to do with me?!"
Jiang Ran felt even more aggrieved: "Aren't you going to put me here for viewing? If I'm ugly, I won't be worth viewing." She muttered, "You are so stupid."
The girl looked aggrieved like a frightened cat, her big eyes full of accusations. Jiang Suxin held her forehead and said, "Go away. I don't want you anymore."
She was wrong. How could a woman who was with a psychopath like Si Xu be normal? She had underestimated the extent to which Jiang Ran could play dumb.
"You don't want me to be your mascot anymore?"
Jiang Suxin waved her hands tiredly: "No, no."
Jiang Ran was about to speak when a noisy sound came from downstairs again. Someone was talking as he walked up the stairs to the top floor.
"This is the lighthouse - if you want to say where the best view is in the entire Beichen base, it has to be here." The woman's voice was high and cold, with a lazy and tired tone - it was Huo Lingyin.
"I see that the surrounding areas are full of special ability teams. Are you, the Huo family, using this place as a contact point?"
As soon as the man's voice came, the confusion on Jiang Suxin's face disappeared, leaving only the panic that was difficult to conceal.
"What the hell! Why is he here?!"
Just by listening to the voice, she knew who the man was who came up with Huo Lingyin.
Luo Yuting—actually came here on his own. Did he get the news, or was it just a pure coincidence?
The woman turned around twice, ran to the door and took a look down, then retreated back into the room and slapped her forehead: "You two stay here, I'll climb out of the window to hide, don't mention my affairs to them."
After saying that, he opened the window and wanted to climb out.
Jiang Ran stopped her and asked, "Huo Lingyin doesn't know your identity?"
If Huo Lingyin knew that the people who wouldn't be able to see her later would definitely notice something was wrong.
Jiang Suxin didn't care about that anymore: "Huo Lingyin doesn't know. Even if she said something, if Luo Yuting chases me out, I'll jump."
If she had known that this man was playing so seriously, she would not have teased his fragile little heart - now it's like stepping on a piece of chewing gum, which she can neither pick up nor throw away.
"No, no matter what's going on between you and Luo Yuting, you don't have to act like you've seen a monster when you see him!" If you really don't like him, just tell him directly.
"Tell him you were forced to get close to him, and now that you're free, you don't want to continue making the same mistake. Then apologize..."
"Do you think he'll forgive me if I apologize?!" Jiang Suxin exploded. "That guy was still a virgin when he slept with me. He'll definitely hold me responsible!"
Damn, a grown man who is almost thirty years old, but still a virgin, and he even proposed to her seriously... God, if her superpowers had not fully recovered at that time, she would have knocked him out and run away.
Having heard some incredible secret, Jiang Ran nodded: "So, you're a scumbag who refuses to admit your mistakes even after pulling up your pants. No wonder you feel so guilty."
Jiang Suxin: "..."
"If we cover for you, will you agree to Si Xu's request?"
Rolling her eyes at her, the woman didn't bother to answer her. She turned over and jumped out of the window, then leaped onto the roof and sat down.
We can talk about the deal later, but let’s avoid that person first.
The person crawled away. Jiang Ran looked at Si Xu and whispered, "Si Xu, it seems she still hasn't agreed to sell you the information."
Si Xu nodded silently.
Jiang Ran emphasized: "She even rolled her eyes at me."
Si Xu touched her head to comfort her.
Jiang Ran took Si Xu's hand and went downstairs, and happened to meet Huo Lingyin and Luo Yuting who were going upstairs.
"Well, since Jiang Suxin is unwilling to help us, let's come back next time." Jiang Ran muttered casually and aggrievedly.
Luo Yuting paused.
He raised his eyes to look at Jiang Ran, and slowly, each word seemed to be squeezed out from his throat: "You said, Jiang Suxin?"
Jiang Ran was startled and pointed upstairs: "Do you know the name of the lamplighter here?"
Seeing him like this, Huo Lingyin was also surprised and continued, "Yes, the lantern holder's surname is Jiang, but he didn't tell us his name."
"The lantern bearer?" What kind of identity is this?
"She's an intelligence collector, codenamed Lantern Bearer," Huo Lingyin said. "Are you interested in her? I'll take you up there to see her."
Jiang Ran said regretfully, "Then I'm afraid you two aren't destined to be together—when she heard someone was coming, she hurriedly climbed out of the window. She probably doesn't like meeting strangers."
"Don't like meeting strangers?" Luo Yuting smiled thoughtfully. "In that case, we must go up and meet this lantern bearer."
If you listen carefully, you can hear the gnashing of teeth in the man's words.
…
After being exposed to the wind and sun on the roof for an hour, Jiang Suxin pulled her hair in annoyance, wishing time could go back. She would rather be eaten by zombies than be rescued by the Luo family again.
The smiling fox spoke high-sounding words, constantly emphasizing that he had done her a favor only because he was attracted by her appearance and wanted to use her to get close to Luo Yuting.
In order not to arouse the man's suspicion and to find a way out for herself, she followed his instructions and went to Luo Yuting.
Who knew...
The Luo family's resolute and decisive young master is actually a blank slate when it comes to emotions!
She drank a little and got hot-headed, so she impulsively tricked someone into bed, and regretted it after waking up.
It just so happened that the situation was ripe and her superpowers had fully recovered, so a few days after the man took out the ring and proposed to her, she slipped away from the Nanjun base alone.
What followed was the pursuit of the Nanjun Psychic Team - the second master of the Luo family was worried that she would reveal her plan, so he arranged for his most powerful psychic to hunt her down all the way.
The most dangerous time was when she was caught by those people and was almost fed to zombies.
It was Si Xu who saved her that time.
She thought that since the second master of the Luo family had caused such a big commotion, even if Luo Yuting was a fool, he should be able to guess her identity.
So why was he still chasing her? Was he going to settle the score with her? Or was he going to make her take responsibility?
It's really unfortunate that no matter what the reason is, she won't accept it.
"Oh." The woman sighed and slowly came down from the upstairs.
It’s better to avoid this kind of troublesome things if possible. Once he leaves Beichen Base, she can complete her work in peace.
The room was quiet and empty.
Stepping into the room through the window, Jiang Suxin patted her clothes and let out another long breath.
Finally he left, so she decided to temporarily leave Beichen Base and stay somewhere else for a few days, waiting for him to leave before coming back.
Just as she had made up her mind, a man's faint voice came from the shadows by the window, which she hadn't noticed: "Jiang Suxin, what a coincidence! I thought you were planning to spend the night up there."
