Chapter 99 Falling into the Water
Jiang Luo nodded: "Yes."
"I see." Lin Wan said sweetly, maintaining the curve of her lips, "Then do you know that her mother was a mistress?"
His face was harmless, his tone calm and composed, but his words were harsh and offensive.
With an innocent and naive tone, she cruelly reopened other people's wounds.
Jiang Luo finally understood why Lin Shuang had severed ties with the Lin family. Spending every day with a sister like that would drive her crazy.
Not wanting to get entangled with Lin Wan any longer, she quickly said goodbye: "I'm sorry, I have some things to take care of, so I won't bother you any longer."
As if fleeing, Jiang Luo hurriedly turned around.
Unfortunately, we were still a step too late.
She heard Lin Wan's voice from behind her: "Do you want to know what Fu Jing has?"
This sentence successfully restrained Jiang Luo's steps.
What is it?
She really wanted to know.
Perhaps that is the answer.
Now, the opportunity to bypass Gao Ming and directly obtain the answer to the mystery is right in front of her.
Who wouldn't want to know?
She stopped, turned around, and asked, "What?"
The fish has taken the bait.
Lin Wan smiled sweetly, "Fu Jing has a secret weapon."
A secret weapon?
Lin Wan's eerie smile was chilling.
Jiang Luo took a step closer. "What is it?"
Lin Wan feigned mystery: "It's the unbreakable bond between him and Lin Shuang."
What the heck?
Jiang Luo went berserk.
She didn't want to keep going in circles with Lin Wan.
Wouldn't it be better to just give the answer directly?
Before Jiang Luo could ask any further questions, Lin Wan turned and left.
Looking in the direction she was going, the light from the hall couldn't reach her; it was pitch black.
I can't see anything clearly.
Indeed, there was nothing.
Empty and desolate, permeated with a chill.
Jiang Luo quickly followed, relentlessly, "Could you explain it more clearly? You mean... Fu Jing has something that could harm Lin Shuang, right?"
Lin Wan completely ignored her and continued walking forward.
The person I'm talking about is her.
She was the one who didn't say anything.
Why are you keeping me in suspense?
Annoying.
Jiang Luo quickened her pace to keep up, earnestly persuading, "Blood is thicker than water, Lin Shuang is, after all, your own sister..."
As soon as she finished speaking, the person in front of her suddenly stopped, turned around, and stared at her coldly.
Jiang Luo braked suddenly.
He swayed, stumbled, and almost fell.
Thankfully, she managed to stay calm and breathed a sigh of relief.
But less than half a second after he stood still, a heavy force struck him.
We've been ambushed!
Lin Wan actually pushed her!
"Splash—"
Jiang Luo slipped and fell into the pool unexpectedly, splashing water as she landed on the edge of the pool.
"Help! I can't swim! Help! Help..."
Jiang Luo struggled fiercely, thrashing about and shouting.
The pool water was icy cold, soaking her body, but she didn't care about the cold at all.
My mind went blank, and all I could do was cry for help.
Will he just die here today?
I haven't even started dating He Ziyan yet!
"Help! Help! Help!"
The pool water occasionally overflowed over my nose and entered my mouth.
Spit it out, then let it in; spit it out, then let it in.
It seems to have no end.
Jiang Luo kept repeating it to herself.
Good heavens, I will never ask people questions they don't want to answer again.
Strangely, Lin Wan, the instigator, looked down at her with a calm and composed demeanor.
Her eyes were calm and serene, as if she were admiring a work of art.
"Luo Luo!"
The glass door connecting to the swimming pool was pushed open, and a nimble figure flashed past.
He Ziyan pounced on him.
A large crowd of people had gathered in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, a dense, dark mass of people.
"Click," "click"... the sound of cameras snapping photos echoed one after another.
There was another "splash" sound as water fell in.
He Ziyan took off his coat, jumped into the pool, and with his thin but strong arms, wrapped around Jiang Luo and swam with difficulty to the edge of the pool.
No need to die.
Flustered and clinging to the edge of the pool, Jiang Luo raised her face.
In the bright light, a large crowd had gathered behind the floor-to-ceiling windows. Most of the guests at Lin Wan's birthday party were holding up their phones, peering out, some mocking, some laughing, and occasionally showing concern.
But they didn't leave the house; they were like tourists in a zoo, surrounded by things to observe.
Or perhaps, the transparent glass is their cage, imprisoning those ugly hearts.
Her gaze swept over him, and the chill in her heart vanished in an instant. A single thought quickly ignited in Jiang Luo's mind:
Oh no, this is definitely going to be trending tomorrow.
If Brother Lin finds out, I'll definitely get a lot of flak.
Jiang Luo hung her head, dejected.
What terrible things have they done?
Oh right, it's all Lin Wan's fault!
Turning his head away, he saw that the person had vanished.
The spot where Lin Wan had been standing was now empty, with only the dark end of the road remaining.
That's outrageous.
Lin Wan was truly awful for pushing her into the swimming pool without a word.
As for the onlookers, not a single one offered any help, which was equally appalling!
This isn't a castle at all, it's a complete "den of iniquity"!
"Are you alright?" While Jiang Luo was distracted, He Ziyan had already climbed onto the ground.
He bent slightly and reached out his hand to Jiang Luo.
The light source shone behind him, like a blooming lotus flower.
Her fair skin was still clearly visible even in backlight.
Jiang Luo thought, "This must be an angel."
The angel is...so beautiful.
Holding that hand with its distinct knuckles, Jiang Luo felt its scalding heat and immense power.
They all come from He Ziyan.
He was soaked to the bone, his azure shirt had turned dark blue, and large drops of water dripped down his hair.
His eyelashes were still covered with a thick layer of water mist, but he didn't have time to wipe it off, his whole heart was focused on Jiang Luo.
After successfully landing, Jiang Luo had just stood still when He Ziyan wrapped her in his suit jacket.
The coat, coming from the front like an apron, left her defenseless.
But... He Ziyan was also soaking wet.
What if He Ziyan catches a cold?
Wouldn't she become the culprit?
Jiang Luo wanted to be modest, "You..."
"Luo Luo, don't catch a cold." The tone left no room for argument.
Jiang Luo wanted to persist, but He Ziyan suddenly hugged her.
A warm chest enveloped me, making my heart flutter.
“He…” Ziyan.
Even the name became too hot to pronounce, choking me in my throat.
Jiang Luo dared not move.
With his arms outstretched and chin over his shoulder, He Ziyan quickly tied a knot behind Jiang Luo with his sleeve.
Well……
By the time Jiang Luo came to her senses, she had already become a "silkworm pupa".
"What are you doing?" Jiang Luo lowered her head. "How embarrassing."
He Ziyan scoffed. "If you don't resist, you won't lose face."
Jiang Luo pouted and stared at He Ziyan.
His gaze softened as he looked at the stubborn yet energetic little face, and asked gently, "How are you feeling now?"
“It’s terrible.” Jiang Luo grinned, her face contorted with grief. “The water is so dirty. I drank two mouthfuls… Oh, and more than that, Ziyan, I’m not clean anymore.”
Upon hearing this, He Ziyan was taken aback for a moment, then burst into laughter.
The kitten, having fallen into the water, became even softer and more cuddly.
When she doesn't speak, she looks pitiful; when she does speak, she's adorable and well-behaved.
Who wouldn't want to raise a kitten like this?
After laughing, he looked in the direction where Lin Wan had disappeared, his gentle expression turning cold.
The onlookers were still there, row upon row, their menacing gazes pressing down.
Looking at them, Jiang Luo felt like a rabbit caught in a wolf's den, wanting to run but unable to because her legs were too weak.
