Jiang Nian glanced at Xia Lan, who was already terrified.
The tone was even quite friendly.
"How about that? Doesn't it sound exciting?"
Stimulate?
Xia Lan trembled like a leaf.
What did Jiang Nian just say?
He said that as soon as it was midnight, he would kick her off the chair along with her.
This is the rooftop of a thirteen-story building!
If she were wearing a safety rope, even if she were kicked down, she would be held securely by the rope.
But the problem is, the safety rope's buckle was tampered with by someone she had asked.
She knew better than anyone that the screws inside were loose.
The moment a person falls, all the screws in the latch will burst open.
There was no way to stop her!
She will die.
She really is going to die!
Xia Lan was so frightened that she burst into tears and snot.
Her first reaction was, how dare Jiang Nian? How could anyone dare to do such a thing to her?
He shouted.
"Jiang Nian, are you crazy?!"
"Do you know who I am? How dare you do this to me! My dad will never let you get away with this!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Nian twitched the corner of her mouth.
He raised his eyes and said, "...Miss Xia."
"Since I dared to do it, I'm confident that if something goes wrong, they won't trace it back to me."
"Even your father can't suspect me, so why are you saying you won't let me go?"
Xia Lan then remembered that Jiang Nian had killed someone when she was eleven years old.
Yet she managed to absolve herself of all guilt.
She has that ability.
At this moment, the wind rustled, and the night sky was clear with a few bright stars.
Looking to the side, it seemed to be a bottomless abyss.
Xia Lan was scared; she was truly scared.
Snot and tears streamed down my face.
She had never been so scared or so embarrassed in her entire life.
“No… Jiang Nian, I admit it, I had someone tamper with your safety rope.”
"But there's a soft pad underneath, so you won't die even if you fall. I just wanted to teach you a lesson, since you have my video and used it to threaten me."
"I apologize, I was wrong, I shouldn't have provoked you. Please let me go, I promise I'll never go against you again, I'm begging you..."
"Walk?"
Jiang Nian straightened up and looked at the clock tower of Canxing.
The huge clock face above showed that there was one minute left until twelve o'clock.
"The game hasn't started yet, Miss Xia can't leave."
"One minute left."
"Hmm, fifty seconds left."
Jiang Nian squinted, raised her wrist, and watched the second hand slowly move forward.
They watched and called out the numbers at the same time.
"Forty seconds."
"thirty."
"twenty."
"Ten, nine, eight, seven..."
Before Jiang Nian could utter a single number, Xia Lan trembled even more violently.
As the countdown reached its final few seconds, almost midnight, she screamed, her face turning deathly pale.
I was so scared that I fainted.
Jiang Nian's expression showed no surprise whatsoever.
I thought this young lady could hold out until midnight.
Five or six men in suits immediately emerged from the shadows.
In a respectful tone: "Miss, shall we carry her back now?"
"Yes, thank you for your hard work."
These were Si Boye's men, and they were at her beck and call.
Jiang Nian certainly wouldn't actually kick Xia Lan, chair and all, off the thirteenth-floor rooftop.
She was simply giving her a taste of her own medicine and teaching her a lesson.
He glanced at the unconscious Xia Lan and turned away.
*
the next day.
Qin Xiaoxiao learned the news.
Xia Lan suddenly developed a high fever late last night and was taken home by people sent by the Xia family.
She couldn't believe it.
Xia Lan was perfectly fine during the day yesterday.
How could a sudden high fever occur in the middle of the night?
She immediately called Xia Lan, but no one answered.
*
The Xia family.
Xia Lan's hair was disheveled, and she was trembling, wrapped in the blanket on the bed. Her eyes were lifeless, and her face was as white as a ghost.
Madam Xia led an old man in a long robe into the room, her tone urgent.
"Master, please take a look, is my daughter possessed by some evil spirit?"
At three o'clock yesterday morning, Mrs. Xia suddenly received a call from Xia Lan.
Hearing her beloved daughter wailing on the other end of the phone, she was so alarmed that she immediately took people to the school.
When they finally saw Xia Lan in the dormitory, she not only had a fever but was also talking nonsense.
She kept shaking her head and saying things like, "I don't want to be kicked down, don't kick me down," which terrified Madam Xia.
They brought the person home overnight.
Xia Lan is the little princess of Mingxia Pharmaceutical. She has had a smooth life and is surrounded by admirers since birth.
I've never been threatened like this in my entire life.
Not to mention someone like Jiang Nian, whose actions are so ruthless.
In particular, Xia Lan was in her dormitory at first last night, but when she opened her eyes, she found herself on the rooftop with Jiang Nian.
Jiang Nian threatened to kick her off the rooftop while she was still tied to the safety rope, which terrified her. But when she opened her eyes again, she found herself back in her dormitory.
Xia Lan didn't know if she was dreaming or if what happened on the rooftop had really happened.
If it's a dream, how can it feel so real?
He was so frightened that he was in a daze and his mind was in a state of confusion.
As soon as the master approached, Xia Lan shoved him away, saying, "Get away from me! I'm not possessed, don't touch me!"
Mrs. Xia quickly hugged her agitated daughter to comfort her: "Alright, alright, Lanlan, don't get agitated. Mom was just worried about you."
"Tell Mom what happened. Why did you suddenly become like this?"
Upon hearing this, Xia Lan threw herself into Madam Xia's arms and cried her heart out.
"Mom, someone at school wants to kill me! Someone really wants to kill me!"
