This man is too arrogant!
Jiang Nian gritted her teeth.
The dagger pressed against the man's waist was suddenly raised to his throat, forcing him to retreat until his back was against the wall, creating a face-to-face confrontation.
With a snap, the lights in the private room were switched on.
Han Xu stood by the light switch and looked at Jiang Nian: "Sister Nian, is this the man you were talking about?"
There was another man with her?
Si Boye narrowed his eyes in an instant.
When she heard Han Xu call Jiang Nian "Sister Nian", the dangerous look in her eyes disappeared.
Jiang Nian's eyes were filled with coldness as she stared at the man in front of her: "If you don't want to have your throat choked, put your hands up."
“Okay.” Si Boye was quite cooperative.
He was just so tall that the girl looked incredibly petite next to him. Even with his hands raised and head bowed, he exuded a domineering and controlling aura.
Moreover... with that gesture, the man's dark gray shirt rode up, revealing his strong chest and abdominal muscles and narrow waist, exuding a carefree and unrestrained vibe.
Such a handsome man is hard to look away from, but Jiang Nian has no interest in men's physiques.
She said she would return everything the man had done to her.
Just like last night when the man ripped off her mask, Jiang Nian also ripped off the man's sunglasses.
I saw a face that could only be described as monstrous.
His handsome features were like those of a god, with a high nose bridge, thin lips curving into a smile, and dark, deep eyes that exuded a wild and untamed spirit.
The man wasn't angry when Jiang Nian exposed his true colors. Instead, a slight smile curled at the corners of his mouth, carrying a hint of danger and amusement.
"Now that you've seen my face, are we even?"
Jiang Nian scoffed, "A lawyer, yet he's out there doing things like murder and arson?"
It was Han Xu, who was behind, who noticed something was wrong and was taken aback: "Wait a minute, Sister Nian, the Fu Jinyi I found out doesn't look like this..."
Jiang Nian frowned, gripped the dagger tighter, and pushed it in another step: "Who exactly are you?"
“Tell me your name, and I’ll tell you who I am.” Si Boye leaned closer.
Jiang Nian took a deep breath.
She knew the man's men were outside, and she hadn't really intended to do anything to him.
"No need, and I'm not that interested in knowing anyway," Jiang Nian said coldly.
She withdrew the dagger from the man's throat, but in an instant, she used the tip of the blade to slash through the man's expensive bespoke shirt.
The force was applied with extreme precision, just enough to tear the shirt. But any more force, and it would have cut through the skin.
It can be seen as retaliation, but it's also a warning.
He looked at Han Xu expressionlessly and said, "Let's go."
Si Boye raised an eyebrow, watching the girl leave without looking back. His phone rang; he opened it to find the information he had just asked someone to investigate.
[Jiang Nian, seventeen years old, was born in Yao County, a mountainous area. Her mother, Li Ruyan, later passed away due to a genetic brain disease. Her father, Jiang Sheng, then went to Jiangcheng to remarry and had a daughter, Jiang Ranran. He founded Shenglan Real Estate.]
[He disappeared at the age of seven and could not be found. He reappeared three months ago as a sophomore at Yaoxian High School, but was expelled a month later for fighting...]
Looking at the information, Si Boye couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
Disappeared at age seven, reappeared at age sixteen.
Where did the seven-year-old girl from a poor mountain area go after disappearing for nine years?
-
After obtaining the wild orchid, Jiang Nian went to a traditional Chinese medicine pharmacy to buy various medicinal herbs.
It took half an hour to prepare ten doses of medicine, enough for my grandfather to drink for a month.
When she returned to the Ji family home, all seven of her older brothers were waiting for her in the living room.
Upon seeing her return, Ji Xiuan greeted her first: "Niannian, why are you back so late? You didn't answer your phone. We were all very worried about you."
Jiang Nian was taken aback. She took out her phone and found a bunch of missed calls, all from her brothers.
She was used to being alone and had never felt this way about being cared for by her family.
"...I was preparing medicine for my grandfather and didn't check my phone."
“It’s alright,” Ji Yanli said. “It’s so late, Niannian, you should go back to your room and rest.”
Then she suddenly remembered something, "By the way, Niannian, now that you've gone home, you'll definitely be staying in Jiangcheng from now on."
"You're going to be a senior in high school, right? Yingzhong starts school tomorrow. How about I contact the vice principal tonight and ask him to transfer you to the top-performing class for senior year?"
Jiangcheng Yingzhong is a top-ranked high school in the entire country, and its elite classes are composed of the top 50 students in each grade, bringing together the best teachers in the school and even the entire Jiangcheng.
Even for regular classes, the admission requirements for Yingzhong are extremely stringent.
Jiang Nian's student record clearly states that she was expelled. Let alone the top class, she wouldn't be able to transfer to a regular class even if she wanted to.
It seems that the eldest brother is planning to use his financial power to invest tens of millions in Yingzhong or donate a building to get her into the top class.
Jiang Nian said, "No need, brother. I've already contacted Principal Feng of Yingzhong. I can go directly to report tomorrow."
"Hmm?" Ji Yanli looked surprised.
Feng Yingcai, the principal of Yingzhong School, now holds an important position in the Ministry of Education. However, since he founded Yingzhong School, he still serves as the honorary principal and is no longer responsible for the school's specific affairs.
It is also very difficult for ordinary people to contact him.
Niannian actually knew Principal Feng. Not only did she have his contact information, but Principal Feng also made an exception and admitted her to the university.
“Alright, big brother, since Niannian has already made arrangements herself, you don’t need to worry about it,” Ji Xiuan took Jiang Nian’s hand. “Come on, Niannian, your third brother will show you your room.”
Third Brother said that he decorated her room himself.
Jiang Nian saw that her third brother was indeed very attentive, treating her like a little princess.
