Everyone burst into laughter.
As Tachibana Mina laughed, her lips twitched, and she couldn't help but turn away.
At this moment, Huo Xiao walked over, reached out, and patted her head like Jiang Chu had.
“I don’t treat you like an outsider. That’s how I am, that’s how we are, and that’s even more so with the boss.”
“Mina, forgive the boss’s ambition. Actually, the boss has always wanted to win you over.”
"Of course, this effort is not just about getting you here as an exchange student."
"He genuinely wants to treat you as one of his own."
“I didn’t know any of this.” Tachibana Mina cried.
"I don't know his good intentions, and I don't know why he treats me like this."
"Now I know everything..."
At this moment, Jiang Chu's ruthlessness was presented to everyone like a blueprint.
His goal was to help the Xia Kingdom recruit talented individuals without being bound by conventional standards.
He used every means at his disposal.
Zhuang Pinru is just the beginning, but far from the end.
At this moment, Emilia stood on the second-floor corridor, looking down at the first floor, and a sudden panic gripped her heart.
A murderous intent once again gripped his heart.
She once again harbored murderous intent towards Jiang Chu.
Kid, why are you always so scary?
Did you know that scary people don't live long?
Emilia instinctively wanted to contact her boss.
But after thinking it over, she still couldn't do it.
Because she was afraid of revealing something.
As for what it is, she herself can't say for sure.
She only knew that this exposure would probably make the boss no longer trust her.
In front of everyone in the Brothers Brigade, Tachibana Mina told her story.
Actually, this is a story very similar to Zhuang Pinru's.
It's just that Tachibana Mina's situation was more difficult.
Over the years, she has actually been influenced by her family's Spartan education.
From childhood to adulthood, it has always been like this, with beatings and corporal punishment.
Over time, she has developed a submissive personality.
When she arrived at the military academy, her father instructed the instructors not to go easy on her.
Therefore, her growth trajectory in the military academy over the past few years is quite predictable.
He always won first place by obeying orders, and he always achieved the best results under duress.
The child who always got a 98 on a test would get a beating when he got home.
Huo Xiao could no longer bear to train this "brother" in a particularly cruel way.
That would completely ruin her.
At this moment, although the other party was crying, Huo Xiao and the others felt that a powerful life form was breaking out of Tachibana Mina's body and being reborn.
Outside Xiang Ling'er's villa.
After Jiang Chu rang the doorbell for a long time, the other party finally opened the door.
Seeing that the other person's eyes were moist, Jiang Chu couldn't help but sigh: "Are you angry?"
"I'm going back to China," Xiang Ling'er said, choking back tears. "You've never been good to me."
Jiang Chu didn't say anything, he just closed the door.
Seeing Jiang Chu's solemn expression and not-so-good mood, Xiang Ling'er became a little scared.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that, but I... I'm really petty. I can't stand how you treat Xiaomu, Pinru, and Mina. I miss you, and you've been so good to me too."
Jiang Chu smiled wryly: "They are all full of bitterness and resentment, and they all have knots in their hearts. You are so carefree, what knots do you have in your heart?"
Your father treats you like a precious treasure, cherishing you and protecting you in every way, so you have no burdens whatsoever.
"I have it! You don't understand, you never will!" Xiang Ling'er suddenly burst into tears.
Jiang Chu neither offered any advice nor went over to comfort him.
He just watched the other person cry quietly.
Once the other person had calmed down a bit, Jiang Chu said, "Ling'er, I'm not stupid. You should know very well what I'm doing."
I don't mess with people, but no one can mess with me.
I know very well why you came to my side.
I just hope that some people don't miscalculate and use you, my beloved girl, as a pawn! If they do, I won't let them get away with it!
Furthermore, I'm not anyone's pawn, and nobody can blackmail me.
Seeing that Jiang Chu was truly angry, Xiang Ling'er threw herself into his arms and cried even more bitterly.
"Brother, I don't want to hurt you, I never even thought of it!"
"I don't blame you, I just hate those who bullied you."
Jiang Chu said coldly, "Do you know why I've been working so hard to improve my strength?"
Let me tell you, the more strength you have, the more control you have over your own destiny!
Xiang Ling'er, your biggest flaw is that you're carrying a burden you shouldn't be carrying!
"Brother, I always feel like I have ulterior motives for being around you, which is why we've grown apart... You know what? I really want to go back to the map in the domestic competition, I really want you to be my X forever..."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chu couldn't help but hug the other person tightly.
“I will always be your X, Ling’er. Actually, I knew everything a long time ago. I admit that I used to be wary of you, but after I figured out one thing, I stopped being wary of you.”
"What have you figured out?" Xiang Ling'er asked, lost in thought.
"I've figured it out. I know what kind of relationship we should have."
Jiang Chu said earnestly, "I know you like me, I've always known that. I like you too, but we like each other in different ways."
I've always thought of you as a younger sister, but I know you've always thought of me as…
"Lover." Xiang Ling'er brought up the topic that Jiang Chu was too embarrassed to reveal.
