Chapter 209
"My name is Jiang You."
"Not interested."
Jiang You's fist hardened, but she comforted herself, thinking that this was the only person she could communicate with who spoke Chinese.
The young lady was impatient, but she responded to every single one of her questions.
Haha, what a tough-talking but soft-hearted girl! (smiles).
She wasn't upset at all, not even a little bit. She even wanted to build a good relationship with the girl and learn English.
Jiang You didn't rely entirely on Xia Yan and his team to rescue her. She believed that relying on others was not as good as relying on herself, and that the first step to saving herself was to pick up her lost English.
Thinking of this, she frowned. She had come out because she was so frustrated and wanted to clear her head.
She originally intended to relax in China, but what can you expect when a Muggle like her has a magical dream? And who knows what might happen in the future? It's better to fulfill her dream as soon as possible.
Knowing that he had bodyguards following him, he used an app to call a translator to accompany him.
It turns out those bodyguards were all useless!
Sigh, I wonder how the translator will react if she doesn't receive her message.
Jiang You sighed deeply but then rallied himself. Thinking about these things was useless; he had to look forward.
She wanted to build a good relationship with Theodore: "Theodore, how did you get kidnapped?"
Theodore was silent for a few seconds, then said calmly, "...I don't know. Everything went black, and when I woke up, I was here."
Seeing that she was unwilling to talk more, Jiang You appropriately changed the subject: "Why isn't the brown-haired girl with you?"
Speaking of this, Theodore became somewhat interested and lifted his head from her shoulder: "Her...?"
Theodore scoffed, "A sickeningly kind idiot."
Before Theodore could continue, Jiang You's eyes widened: "How could you... she just protected you!"
The two were very close, with bright red hair hanging down Jiang You's shoulder.
Theodore tilted his head, strands of hair slipping from his shoulders, his thick, curled eyelashes fixed on her with a bright smile, pure malice churning beneath his skin: "That's why it's disgusting, a self-deluded guy."
His voice was as faint as a feather tainted with malice, making one's heart tremble.
This Theodore is really abnormal. Jiang You swallowed hard and lowered her head, shrinking her body.
Theodore's smile suddenly froze on his face. He stared at Jiang You, raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes darted around in their sockets, as if he were plotting some even more wicked idea.
"So... if you don't have the ability, why did you rush up to protect me?"
Hearing the sound, Jiang You raised his head. Theodore lowered his eyes, his previously straight shoulders slumped slightly, and he muttered to himself, "Idiot, absolutely stupid."
Her voice trailed off with a barely perceptible sob, and fearing being discovered, she fell silent, resting her chin on her knees, her eyes unfocused as she stared blankly at the floor in front of her.
A guilty yet stubborn figure appeared before Jiang You.
This isn't a scene from a novel or anime where a tsundere younger sister gets hurt because someone is protecting her, and then stubbornly says, "That's so stupid!" Is that "stupid" an insult to the other person for not knowing how to protect themselves?
The phrase "stupid as hell" doesn't contain blame; it's clearly a trembling sense of guilt and self-reproach.
Jiang You understood.
What a fragile beauty.
She felt embarrassed after mentally cursing Theodore for being abnormal.
With his hands tied behind his back, Jiang You couldn't pat Theodore's back to comfort her, and he was too tongue-tied to think of anything nice to say.
As she racked her brains for comforting words, Theodore lifted his head and leaned against her affectionately.
