C93 Asylum to the River

"Why did you come here?" I looked doubtfully at Xiang Jiang with a face full of caution. I didn't think that he had come to take a stroll. If he were to say that I had chanced upon him, I wouldn't believe him even more.

"Are you here to pick you up? Or do you want to walk back yourself? It will take 4 hours for you to walk back to your room." Xiang Jiang rarely had a straight face.

"How did you know I was here? You followed me." I was even more afraid to get on the train.

"Great-uncle asked me to come here. Great-uncle heard that you came to the unmarked cemetery, and it's so late, so he came back. He told me to come and pick you up." He spoke a rare string of words to Jiang.

"I said. "How could you be so kind as to come pick me up? It's actually because of great-uncle's orders." I nodded in understanding. Looking at the serious Xiang Jiang, I couldn't help but want to tease him.

"Get in." He opened the door to the river and gestured for me to open it.

I quickly got into the passenger seat, fastened my seat belt, and obediently waited for Xiangjiang to start driving. Xiangjiang was shocked by my series of shameless actions, and his face was blank for a moment.

"Aren't you curious why I'm here?" Along the way, Jiang Du kept a close eye on the road ahead. We didn't communicate the entire way, so I finally couldn't hold it in any longer and opened my mouth to speak first.

"Would you say that if I asked?" "He didn't even turn back, but kept his eyes on the road in front of him. The steering wheel in his hand rotated every now and then." "Yes, if you don't ask, how will you know that I don't know how to tell?" I looked at Xiangjiang.

Xiangjiang didn't expect me to reply in such a manner. His expression was still alright, without a single ripple. However, when I saw that his hand had tightened around the steering wheel, I was shocked. 'No way! Don't tell me he wants to hit me?!'

"Then what are you going to do?" Xiangjiang actually turned to me and asked.

"I choked on his words for a long time, unable to utter a single word." You don't know how to talk, do you, Terminator? " I looked at Xiangjiang's innocent face and muttered.

"Didn't you tell me to ask?"

"I told you to ask, do you really like me if I let you like me?" I said, amused.

"No, I don't like people." Xiangjiang was startled by my words, and I felt the car go out of control for a moment.

"If you don't want to try liking someone, why did you come to this world? Why don't you go and become a monk?"

Xiangjiang was choked by my words, so he could only continue driving and didn't talk to me.

"I'm here to catch a ghost. Do you believe me?" In order to coordinate with the atmosphere, I purposely cut off my hair, swept it all over my face, and then abruptly went to where Xiang Jiang was.

Xiangjiang's car skidded off its original track. He quickly turned back to the steering wheel and glared at me. "Do you know how dangerous it is?"

"Sorry, it seems like the joke is a bit overdone." I saw that I had almost made a mistake and silently bowed my head in apology.

Returning to his house, Xiang Jiang didn't say anything as he drove the car to the parking lot and got off. Without waiting for me, I followed behind her in amusement. Why was she so petty? Didn't she scare him a little? She was angry for such a long time.

I felt a kind of uncontrollable, wild laughter. It was so loud that I couldn't stand up straight, holding my stomach as I walked, and the whole parking lot echoed with my laughter.

He stopped and looked back at me. "What are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing. I just feel like it's funny that you're so angry, Xiangjiang." I said, covering my aching stomach with my hands.

After hearing that, Xiangjiang left without looking back. I could vaguely see that his face had turned red.

When the maid came in to inquire about him, I realized that Ye Ling and Xiang Huai had been brought back. However, both of them had gone insane, and Ye Ling's mother insisted on coming here early in the morning because she thought that they had harmed Ye Ling.

I think it has something to do with me. I'm sure my great-uncle knows I made them do this, but after he came back last night he let me rest first without asking for anything. I was so touched by the ruckus this morning that he didn't come find me. I felt so good to have someone to shield me from the wind and rain.

After cleaning everything up, I walked towards the stairs and looked at the chaos in the hall. My great-uncle was sitting upright on the sofa, and opposite him was a woman with heavy makeup. Looking at her dressing style, I knew that she must be Ye Ling's mother, because even though her clothes were luxurious, she gave off a feeling like a market.

"Have you caused enough trouble? Isn't Xiang Huai insane as well?" "Mom from the side could not stand it any longer." Xiang Huai is only a child of a side branch of your Xiang Family. Child Ye Ling is the precious daughter of our Ye Family, she's the future successor, how can she be compared to us? " Ye Ling's mother cried.

"Enough." "I can't stand it any longer. I hate people who bully my family the most." I went down the stairs, my voice so loud that I could hear the echoes in the hall.

"That's you, that's you. It must be you. Ling'er said that you were a vicious person, and that you would definitely harm him. That's you! I'm going to kill you!" She threw herself at him like a shrew.

I stretched my five fingers. I planned to return the punch, but someone suddenly appeared in front of me and helped me take Ye Ling's mother's blow. Afterwards, I pushed her away.

"Are you okay? Thank you." I looked at Xiangjiang. Even without him, I wouldn't let myself get hurt, but he helped me block it, so I should keep it in my heart.

My great-uncle looked at Xiang Jiang in satisfaction before looking back at me. He smiled faintly at me. I knew that my great-uncle was loudly admonishing me that I was alright. With him here, he would protect me well. I nodded at him, touched.

"If you want us to take responsibility, then take out the evidence. Otherwise, if you continue to cause trouble without reason, I'll call the police. If not, then I'll keep it a secret, don't walk alone in the dark anymore." The great-uncle was silent for a long time.

The great-uncle glanced at the woman, then left with a look of disgust.

That woman wanted to chase after uncle but was blocked by me, Xiang Jiang, so he directly took her and threw her out of the door as easily as grabbing a chicken.
