Chapter 13 I'm a Good Person Jiang Mingyue disliked the other person because they were dirty, so...
Jiang Mingyue, disgusted by the other person's dirtiness, wiped her hands on the edge of the bed sheet draped over her body.
She raised her hand to brush away the strands of hair that had been blown across her face by the night breeze, and said slowly, "Hey, friend, there's an old saying in the East: it's easy to invite a god but hard to send him away. If you've messed with me, it won't be so easy for you to get away unscathed."
She slowly uttered fluent Italian; excuse me, but one of the skills she gained from transmigrating into the book was her fluency in eight languages: listening, speaking, reading, and writing.
To men, Jiang Mingyue's words were no less than a vengeful ghost crawling out of hell in the dead of night to claim their lives.
Oh no! Why can't he speak?! Has he become mute?!
Oh no! Why can't he move?! Is he under a spell that freezes him?!
The man was terrified. He had thought it was Eastern martial arts, but it turned out to be witchcraft!
Jiang Mingyue circled the man once, her cool gaze falling on him as if she were appraising a piece of merchandise.
The man felt a chill run down his spine, as if he were being stared at by a venomous snake. His mind went blank, and all he wanted was to survive.
He blinked desperately, begging for mercy, and tilted his chin toward his shirt pocket, indicating that he was willing to pay money to resolve the matter.
Jiang Mingyue understood his thoughts and smiled, "Don't worry, I'm not a bad person, and I won't take your life. I'm a law-abiding citizen."
When you're abroad, you must never bring shame to your country. She's not a robber; what would she do with his money?
The man was speechless. So even Eastern women can lie through their teeth? What kind of good person would stay up all night to corner a pickpocket?!
Jiang Mingyue stepped forward, easily lifted the man by the back of his neck, and flung him in front of the license plate number.
She lowered her voice and said, "Friend, a guest is a guest. I come from a distant ancient country in the East. It is fate that we meet. Shouldn't you do me a favor as a host?"
No man dared disobey, and they blinked frantically to show their willingness.
Jiang Mingyue smiled and said, "Remember this license plate number. Meet me at the fountain square in the main city tomorrow morning. Prepare some food, but no need for seafood or anything like that, it's too much trouble. Just some portable hamburgers will do."
"If you don't come, your legs will become incapacitated in three days. You can give it a try."
After uttering a threatening remark, Jiang Mingyue released the man from his mute state. Then, in front of him, she unfolded the white sheet draped over her body, pushed off with her feet, and leaped onto the second-floor terrace.
She then shot out a pebble, releasing the man's legs from their restraints. Jiang Mingyue gestured to him, reminding him not to forget their agreement.
Having witnessed the incredible Eastern witchcraft firsthand, the man was speechless, his face ashen. Once he regained consciousness, he ran away as fast as he could.
Oh God! Holy Mary! Eastern women are terrifying!
No one knew that this scene was captured by a hidden camera placed on the wall outside the Aura Hotel by the production team.
When the executive director reviewed the surveillance footage as usual in the morning, he was just as horrified as when he saw these images of the male pickpocket in the footage.
Is this still the same Jiang Mingyue he knew, the same weak and frail member of the Clover Girls Group who couldn't lift a finger?!
Then, thinking back to last night before bed when I was scrolling through my phone and saw the trending topic about "Jiang Mingyue's Zhuyou Technique," everything seemed to subtly jump together.
Jiang Mingyue can already scale walls and leap across rooftops, so what's wrong with her knowing a bit about intangible cultural heritage?
The severity of the situation was beyond the executive director's understanding and ability to resolve, so he immediately called the assistant director.
Five minutes later, the assistant director called him back, saying, "The station leaders said to delete all the footage we filmed, since Teacher Jiang protected our property."
There wasn't much camera equipment on the car, but losing things is not only frustrating, but also difficult to recover. Italy is notorious for its pickpockets, and the local police are notoriously inefficient.
“Boss, if we post these clips, Jiang Mingyue will gain more fans. Isn’t she short of money? We can totally turn that into traffic for her to use.”
"Call her Teacher Jiang," the assistant director corrected him on how he addressed Jiang Mingyue, gesturing for him to show more respect.
"Xiao Ma, have you ever thought carefully about why Teacher Jiang retired from the entertainment industry?"
Executive director Xiao Ma was stunned. The entertainment industry is ruthless and cutthroat; the top earners are always the ones who make the most money, not to mention that pretty girls are the easiest to be deceived and subjected to unspoken rules.
“Xiao Ma, don’t judge other people’s behavior by your own standards. You’ve seen it yourself, the higher-ups value her, and we can’t afford to offend her.”
The assistant director warned him not to do anything stupid.
Xiao Ma understood immediately and quickly clicked the delete button. "Okay, boss, don't worry, I've already deleted it. I still want to work at the station until I retire."
Little Ma kept his merits hidden; he protected Teacher Jiang's secret! He'll reward himself with an extra hamburger for breakfast.
At seven o'clock in the morning, the Don Juan team had a hearty breakfast at the Aura Hotel, and then packed up and checked out.
Uncle Aura is going out of town to buy goods today and can't accompany them to check in. Don Juan told him not to blame himself, there will be other opportunities.
After saying goodbye to Uncle Aura, the group boarded a seven-seater van arranged by Uncle Aura. Tang Huang was in charge of driving, Meng Qinzhou sat in the passenger seat in charge of the live streaming equipment, and Jiang Mingyue and Wei Lai sat in the middle row, preparing to check in for related work.
The production team only provided each person with a mobile phone for live streaming, but also prepared a separate card camera for each person. To prevent confusion, they even customized cameras with their names on them.
Wei Lai stuffed the card into the box. "Modern point-and-shoot cameras are really advanced. They can even connect to your phone via Bluetooth and print photos taken on your phone."
"Times are progressing." Ji Wenxuan lay down in the last row, put on an eye mask to catch up on sleep. He hadn't slept well last night due to jet lag.
The internet speed is a bit unstable, and the live stream hasn't started yet.
Wei Lai asked Don Juan, "Brother Don, if I may be so bold as to ask, do you have any familiar local friends in Noto?"
After checking off the landmarks in Ragusa, their next stop was Noto. To save time, a circular tour of the western island was impractical, so they decided to only visit the eastern route, following the cities along the way.
Don Juan gave a wry smile. "I'd like to have one too. We'll take it one step at a time. If all else fails, we can sleep in the car and take turns keeping watch at night."
“That’s a good idea.” Meng Qinzhou was the first to agree. “Haha, good morning everyone, oh dear, I forgot it’s 2 a.m. in China.”
"Brother Tang, Brother Wei, can we suggest that the production team broadcast the show in the afternoon? That way, viewers won't have to stay up all night every day."
Viewers in the live stream left comments saying they didn't need it.
Those who follow the live stream don't need to go to work the next day, so brother doesn't need to worry about them.
I'm in Europe, please ignore the time difference.
Thank you, brother, we're not sleepy.
Where did the domineering CEO go?
Meng Qinzhou raised his phone and took a picture of Ji Wenxuan sleeping in the back row.
【666】
[Thank you for your hard work, Teacher Tang, driving all the time.]
Sisters, don't stir up trouble; the others don't have international driver's licenses.
It's good that everyone is doing their job; they're a team.
[Not necessarily, Jiang Mingyue is a hands-off manager]
[Which anti-fan is going crazy here again?]
Are you blind? Sister Jiang saved everyone 200 euros yesterday!
Meng Qinzhou ignored the comments from the haters and stopped paying attention to the comment section. He simply fixed his phone and then helped look at the map.
Jiang Mingyue is a good person. She is easygoing, doesn't cause trouble, and isn't pretentious.
Meng Qinzhou couldn't help Jiang Mingyue fight back, partly because he was afraid of provoking a backlash from netizens, and partly because he was afraid of being accused of creating a fake romance with Jiang Mingyue.
Don Juan noticed that Meng Qinzhou had suddenly stopped interacting with the viewers in the live stream, and also noticed the fleeting look of dissatisfaction on his face. He immediately understood what was going on.
It seems like there are trolls picking fights and insulting people in the live stream again.
Among the five of them, Jiang Mingyue had the most haters. Meng Qinzhou was about the same age as Jiang Mingyue, so he naturally defended her.
Don Juan smiled and asked everyone, "Guys, even though this is a budget trip, we should still have a good time. Would you like to listen to some music?"
Wei Lai and the others had no objections.
As a result, the viewers in the live stream and some haters could only hear romantic love songs, while Don Juan and the others did not chat and did their own thing.
【It's all those idiots' fault, the brothers won't chat with us anymore!】
I saw their team spirit.
Why are the brothers silent? Because they want to protect their sister.
Am I the only one who noticed that Sister Jiang wasn't wearing makeup?
Sister Jiang is so quiet; I've never seen her smile in the live stream.
[Sister Jiang is short of money, and she just terminated her contract with her agency. She also has to fulfill the work she signed previously. No wonder she's not happy.]
Twenty minutes later, Don Juan and his group of five went to the old town to take photos of the landmark buildings. They took all sorts of group photos, and no one asked to take any individual photos. The only girl in the group was indifferent to taking individual photos, so Wei Lai and the others were too embarrassed to ask.
The handsome men and beautiful women attracted the attention of many tourists. Some bold and enthusiastic young men tried to chat up Jiang Mingyue, but before Jiang Mingyue could respond, Wei Lai and Ji Wenxuan chased them away.
"Mingyue, don't blame Brother Wei for ruining your plans. A handsome guy you meet in a foreign country isn't necessarily a romantic encounter; it could also be a scam."
"Exactly, have you seen Taken's second movie? The male lead's daughter was hit on by a handsome guy while traveling abroad and almost got killed!"
What could Jiang Mingyue say? Wei Lai and Ji Wenxuan were both doing it for her own good.
She could only nod in agreement, "Yes, Brother Wei, don't worry, I'm not interested in foreign men."
In fact, she wasn't interested in domestic men either; making money was more important than men.
[Pshaw, shameless. I think she's only interested in the brothers.]
[Bullshit! Which eye of yours saw Sister Jiang flirting with Brother Wei and the others?!]
[The laid-back Sister Jiang only cares about work]
[Those haters really love Sister Jiang; they're always jumping around everywhere.]
The group returned to the new city area, which is the main city area, at noon to rest by the fountain pool.
Don Juan chose a restaurant he had frequented before, and was about to order some lunch for Wei Lai and the other three when the show's executive director arrived with a bunch of food.
"Teacher Tang, Teacher Wei, Teacher Ji, Qinzhou, these are hamburgers, cheese and drinks sent by Teacher Jiang's local fans. They're still hot, so everyone should eat them while they're hot."
Don Juan and the other three felt a sharp pain in their faces and instinctively turned to look at Jiang Mingyue.
Jiang Mingyue calmly opened the bag and took out a hamburger. "Maybe he's seen the Clover Girls' performance. What are the guys looking at me for? Eat!"
A note from the author:
Haha, my next fantasy novel, "Cultivating Immortality with a System," is begging for your favorites!
