Jiang Rong immediately got up.
She knew how clingy she had become after she fell ill, but she still held on to a glimmer of hope and looked at Shang Shaoheng quickly and cautiously and objectively.
The collar buttons were unbuttoned, revealing the collarbone...it definitely wasn't her who did it!
The hem of her clothes is messy...it definitely wasn't her who pulled it!
Her face was full of impatience...it definitely wasn't her fault!
[022!] Jiang Rong knocked on his system: [What did I do to Shang Shaoheng after I got sick that made him feel like I raped him now?!]
022 said hesitantly: [It’s better if you don’t know. ]
[……] Jiang Rong took a deep breath and said: [Speak.]
[I'm really doing this for your own good. After all, social death is still death. But if you insist on listening, I can tell you something.] 022 coughed twice and said, [At first, you refused to get out of the car on your own, rolling around and insisting that Shang Shaoheng carry you.]
Jiang Rong said calmly: […I understand. After all, I am sick.]
[On the plane, you suddenly grabbed Shang Shaoheng's sleeve, knelt on one knee, and asked him if he was willing to marry you.]
Jiang Rong's eyes twitched, and he tried to remain calm: "So what did he say? He didn't slap me, did he?"
[Oh, not really.] 022 said: [Let me imitate his tone for you—where on earth did you get the courage to say such things when you have no car, no house, and no savings? Are you ashamed?]
Ginger: [……]
The villain in Jiang Rong's heart covered his face in pain: [And then? I shouldn't have done anything more embarrassing, right?]
022 thought for a moment and said, "Then Shang Shaoheng's friend passed by, and you were attracted by her beauty and knelt on one knee to propose again. Shang Shaoheng wanted to strangle you at that time, but Nie Xi tried his best to stop him, believing that it was unlucky for someone to die on a private plane."
Jiang Rong took a deep breath and said, "This should be the end, right?"
022: [No, you were rejected again and were very sad. Nie Xi is a good man, so he advised you that Country A's marriage law stipulates monogamy.]
You were struck by lightning, questioning why you couldn't marry two, three, or four... Almost everyone on the private plane came to watch you.
Jiang Rong's expression gradually changed from calm at the beginning to blank.
The void of losing the desire to survive.
Shang Shaoheng calmly watched her expression change from one moment to the next, and said cheerfully, "Looking at you like this, I think you've remembered everything, right?"
Jiang Rong buried his head in the blanket with a thud: "No, I forgot everything! I don't remember anything!"
Shang Shaoheng: "I remember Nie Xi has a video, you can ask him to send it to you."
"?!" Jiang Rong's eyes widened. "I thought Nie Xi, this guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, was actually so vicious?!"
Nie Xi, who was sitting in the back, immediately shouted, "Shang Shaoheng, stop spreading rumors! I didn't record it!"
"You didn't record it because you didn't want to." Shang Shaoheng said coldly, "If Wu Xingyi hadn't stopped you, you might have posted it on WeChat Moments."
Nie Xi shut up immediately.
Jiang Rong poked his head out and looked at Nie Xi dimly, which made Nie Xi's whole body creepy: "You...why are you looking at me like that? Didn't I not record it..."
Jiang Rong smiled and said, "I forgot to tell you, I asked Yu Yi to copy a video of you wearing a skirt - before you deleted all the footage."
Nie Xi immediately jumped up and down: "You are so vicious!"
Jiang Rong bowed: "Must-do."
She shrank back, glanced at Shang Shaoheng guiltily, rubbed her nose, and whispered, "Actually, if you don't mind me, I won't make a fuss."
Shang Shaoheng sneered: "If I don't care about you, you will open the hatch and jump out of the plane."
Jiang Rong: "...Am I that fierce?"
"Are you quite proud?"
"No, no, absolutely not." Jiang Rong said immediately: "I am deeply reflecting on myself!"
Shang Shaoheng picked up the book again, turned a page, and said nothing more.
Jiang Rong noticed that he didn't seem angry, which was a bit strange: "Logically speaking, if I was so noisy, he should have thrown me off the plane. Could it be that..."
022: [Could it be...?]
Jiang Rong said firmly: [Could it be that he is holding back something big?!]
022: [……]
Previously, it thought that Jiang Rong could become the love mentor of the male and female protagonists, but it was too shallow.
Shang Shaoheng doesn't deserve love, but does Jiang Rong deserve it?
Jiang Rong has been wondering if Shang Shaoheng was up to something bad, but she has no clue no matter how hard she thinks.
Although her fever had subsided, she was still a little dizzy. Her bones were weak from sleeping for too long, and she didn't want to sleep any more, so she rubbed against Nie Xi's side, hoping to get some hints from Nie Xi.
"You came to chat with me?" Nie Xi was extremely welcoming and said with a smile, "Do you want to ask me about Shang Shaoheng?"
Jiang Rong was surprised: "How did you know?"
Nie Xi thought, "Don't I know what you stinky little lovers are up to?" He put on an air of a worldly expert, "I know everything."
Jiang Rong lowered his voice and said, "Then tell me about his service in the Sixteenth Bureau."
"You're interested in this?" Nie Xi was a little surprised. "I thought you were going to ask me about his height, measurements, family background, and marriage."
Jiang Rong was puzzled: "I'm not going to marry him, why are you asking these questions?"
Nie Xi understood that the relationship between the two had just begun and they were not yet at the stage of discussing marriage.
"Why are you interested in his past?"
Jiang Rong actually had a vague guess in her mind, but she wasn't quite sure. She said perfunctorily, "I want to know what kind of person he was in the past."
"Then you've asked the right person." Nie Xi said excitedly, "Shang Shaoheng and I have known each other for more than ten years. His information from earlier years is top secret in the parliament and is impossible for ordinary people to find."
"As you know, he's an outstanding graduate of the First Military Academy," Nie Xi said. "Not long after entering the academy, he was selected to join the special forces team and served as its captain. Few people in Yancheng know about this team now, but in the early years, those mercenaries on the border would flee at the mere mention of their name."
There was a certain air of exuberance and recklessness in his expression, which added a touch of youthfulness. "In those years, Shang Shaoheng was a legendary figure in the Sixteenth Bureau and even in the entire government of Country A."
"It was during those years that many people applied to the First Military Academy just for him. He was a living signboard for admissions. Old Man Yin put him out there, and the enrollment for the reconnaissance department was always full every year."
The Investigation Department is the trump card major of the First Military Academy, but it is also the most difficult to recruit students. After all, graduates of this major will be surrounded by blood and death day and night, and not many people can withstand such pressure.
Jiang Rong asked: "What's the name of that team?"
Nie Xi smiled, his eyes filled with nostalgia: "He chose the name himself."
"It's called the Three-Legged Crow."
