Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jiang Wan wanted to say something but stopped short, “Man Man, you…”
“Don’t worry, Wan Wan. Leave this to me. You won’t have to lift a finger.”
“Then… You should tread carefully…”
Jiang Wan cautioned her upon seeing the fire in Ni Man Man’s eyes.
She suppressed the smile threatening to spread across her face and decided to stop talking.
…
When Jiang Ze Yu returned to Class 7, Song Bi rushed over.
Before he could even get a word in, Jiang Ze Yu covered his face with one palm and pushed him away. He went straight to Jiang Yu’s seat.
He placed the notebook in his hand on Jiang Yu’s desk as if presenting a treasure. He then said gently, “Little Sister, look. I got these notes for you. You can study more efficiently now.”
Jiang Yu read the name on the cover. The words ‘Feng Jun Hao’ seemed familiar.
It took her a moment before she realized that it was the name of the male protagonist of the story.
Feng Jun Hao, son of Master Feng’s second wife.
It was the man whom Jiang Wan got heavily entangled with and the Jiang family paid a heavy price for it. In the end, she did not get what she wanted.
She recalled that the name of the romance novel she was in, it was called ‘Abusive Love: The President is Too Much’. From the name alone, it was clear that the book focused on toxic relationships. The male lead and female lead were always on and off again, on and off again.
No plot twist was left unused. Amnesia, car accidents, miscarriages, and divorce due to misunderstanding all played out in the book.
Jiang Yu didn’t read such novels. The youngest of her original group of friends had been heavily invested in the book and had complained about the plot day and night. As time passed, she eventually came to know the whole story as well.
In Jiang Yu’s opinion, the male lead, Feng Jun Hao, was a scumbag. On one hand, he had a deep love for the female lead but he also craved the power that he could get from the Jiang family. He was always leading Jiang Wan on and never outrightly rejected her.
In the later part of the book, to secure the position of the head of Feng family, he married Jiang Wan and used her family then forced her to leave the country.
For such a dirty man to be written as the main character, Jiang Yu suspected that there must be something wrong with the author’s mind.
She didn’t even want to touch the belongings of such a disgusting person.
“Why did you bring me these?”
Jiang Ze Yu noticed his little sister’s expression. Not only was she not happy… But she also seemed disgusted?
He touched a finger to his nose and said, “Sister, I think the notebooks of the school genius could be of much use to you.”
“Take it away. I don’t need it.”
“Ok.”
Jiang Ze Yu did not insist further. If his little sister said she didn’t need it, then she meant she didn’t need it. He would just get Song Bi to return them later.
He was annoyed by Feng Jun Hao’s air of arrogance.
As Jiang Ze Yu took back the notebooks, Jiang Yu suddenly thought of something. “Didn’t you say it was best not to provoke the Feng family?”
“Yes.
“Then why did you do this?”
“It’s not like I was picking a fight or kidnapping him. I was just borrowing his notebook.”
Jiang Ze Yu said with total conviction, “I was doing this for the sake of knowledge. It was a noble and honorable reason. There’s no reason he would retaliate against me for this, right?”
Thinking about how Jiang Ze Yu had gone looking for Feng Jun Hao just to help her, Jiang Yu’s heart softened towards Jiang Ze Yu.
She added, “You don’t have to worry.”
Jiang Ze Yu nodded. “Okay, Little Sister.”
“I don’t need his notes…”
Jiang Ze Yu continued to nod his head.
“… To get first place.”
Jiang Ze Yu’s head continued to bob up and down but… He realized something was not right.
Did he hear her wrongly?
“First place?” Jiang Ze Yu repeated, his eyes widened incredulously.
Did his little sister just say something crazy?
