"Mmm...mmm...mmmmm..."
The woman was speechless for a moment.
She looked at Jiang Li with a terrified expression, as if she were looking at some monster.
What exactly did she do to herself?
Why can't she speak?
She pointed to her throat and made a threatening gesture at Jiang Li.
Jiang Chengying was completely dumbfounded the moment he saw Jiang Li.
The thought of making a fool of himself and being seen by Jiang Li filled him with even more shame and anger.
How did Jiang Li manage to see it?
"Jiang Li! Why are you here?" Jiang Chengying preemptively rebuked, her expression displeased. "I remember you were supposed to have class today. Did you skip class again?"
The word "again" is used with great skill and artistry.
Jiang Li scoffed, "I can stay here whenever I want. Do I need to report to you where I go? But you're here too, aren't you? And you've put on a good show for me for free!"
Jiang Chengying: "..."
"Also, I was here first, and your arrival disturbed my rest," Jiang Li added slowly. "So, since you disturbed my rest, shouldn't you apologize to me first? Do you really think I wanted to see this mess of yours?"
"Jiang Li, I'm your brother! Not only do you not help me, but you're also happily watching me make a fool of myself from the tree!" Jiang Chengying was furious. The thought of her coldly watching him being bullied made him feel uneasy.
Jiang Li shrugged and then jumped down from the tree.
"Please don't say that. You two agreed beforehand that you wouldn't acknowledge me as your sister." Jiang Li's smile grew even wider. "And I agreed with your decision and wouldn't treat you as brothers either, so... don't you think it's ridiculous of you to say that now?"
Jiang Chengying trembled with anger, "No matter what, we are still blood-related siblings, and that's something you can't change!"
Jiang Li gave Jiang Chenghao a deep look, then looked at the woman beside her and said meaningfully, "No, things will change soon."
Kinship...
Cutting it off isn't a big deal, it just takes some time.
Especially now that Jiang Chengying is entangled in troubles, if she can completely resolve them, it will save her some energy.
Although Jiang Chengying didn't know what Jiang Li was talking about, he had an indescribable feeling in his heart when he looked at her expression.
“She…” Jiang Chengying knew he wouldn’t gain anything from arguing with himself, so he turned his gaze to the woman beside him. “What’s wrong with her? Why can’t she speak suddenly?”
"Oh, it's nothing. I just put a silencing spell on him, so he couldn't speak." Jiang Li didn't try to hide anything.
Whether they believe it or not is beyond her concern.
Jiang Chengying frowned and looked at Jiang Li, "You're a young lady, can you stop acting like a charlatan? If others find out, it will affect your reputation."
"Oh, so I still have a reputation," Jiang Li replied casually. "I thought I was already infamous."
Jiang Chengying: "..."
"Alright, I've seen the show. Now, how do you want to handle this situation?" Jiang Li changed the subject.
Jiang Chengying looked at the woman, then glanced at Jiang Li, "If it's alright, can I take a few photos with you?"
"Hmm?" Jiang Li looked puzzled.
"Here's the thing, she wanted to use photos of both of us to create the illusion that we were in a relationship. But if you're included, we won't be alone together, and her lie won't have as much of an impact," Jiang Chengying explained to Jiang Li earnestly.
"Since you don't like her and don't want to be with her, why are you here with her?" Jiang Li asked with a puzzled expression.
Jiang Chengying's expression also became somewhat strange. He took a deep breath and then said, "This is what happened. I had an advertisement shoot nearby. After the shoot, I thought the cherry orchard was nearby, so I planned to buy some fresh cherries to take home. But I didn't expect her to follow me here secretly..."
He didn't give this woman a chance.
Instead, she took the opportunity to follow him.
Despite being in the entertainment industry, a notoriously corrupt place, he remains a person with his own principles.
I will never provoke people I don't like.
But even if he doesn't provoke others, he can't stop others from having designs on him, can he?
"Alright." Jiang Li nodded. "You can take pictures if you want, but don't show my face. I don't want to show my face."
“Okay,” Jiang Chengying replied immediately.
After taking a few photos, Jiang Chengying looked at the two of them together in the camera, and a feeling she couldn't quite describe welled up inside her.
When Jiang Li looked at the camera, she was clearly expressionless.
But for some reason, he found it rather cute.
Stop!
How could he have such a thought?
How could someone with Jiang Li's personality possibly be cute?
He never does anything productive, he's nothing like Xueqi!
etc……
"Why didn't you go to class again?" Jiang Chengying asked the same question again.
Jiang Li smiled and said, "Because some people angered the teacher, the teacher let them experience the cruelty of reality."
Jiang Chengying: "..."
What kind of answer is this?
What does this have to do with the question he asked?
"I have things to do, so I won't play with you anymore." Jiang Li waved her hand and turned to leave.
Jiang Chengying quickly pointed to the woman beside him and said, "If you leave, what will happen to her?"
"The silencing spell will expire in half an hour. She just can't speak right now, not move," Jiang Li said speechlessly. "She's such a grown woman, she just doesn't want to talk. Does she really need someone to watch over her all the time?"
Jiang Chengying: "..."
I don't know why, but I always feel that Jiang Li is implying something.
Just when Jiang Chengying thought Jiang Li was about to leave, he saw Jiang Li pick up a small basket and start picking cherries.
Jiang Chengying: "???"
"You said you had something to do, and it was picking cherries?" Jiang Chengying asked incredulously.
"What? Is that not allowed?"
“Yes, yes, of course.” Jiang Chengying nodded repeatedly. “Anyway, I was going to pick cherries anyway, so I’ll pick them with you.”
“No need,” Jiang Li refused. “Everyone picks their own; don’t confuse the two.”
Jiang Chengying couldn't help but mutter, "Aren't we all bringing them home? Why can't we put them together? You picked them, so I'll pay for them too, okay?"
“No need, I have money.” Jiang Li decisively refused Jiang Chengying. “I’ve said before that I won’t use a single penny of the Jiang family’s money, and I’m not joking.”
Jiang Chengying: "..."
This girl is really a troublemaker!
She's not cute at all.
A cute and cuddly younger sister like Xueqi is still more lovable.
However, Jiang Chengying didn't think too much about it; anyway, the cherries still had to be picked.
Before he could finish picking them, his phone rang.
Jiang Chengying's expression changed instantly after answering the phone.
He looked at Jiang Li with a grave expression, "Jiang Li, something terrible has happened!"
