Chapter 513: Chapter 513: Have I Arranged Any Scripts?

"Analyze what?"

Miao Jingjing subconsciously followed Shi Yaoguang’s line of thought.

Shi Yaoguang said, "Shang Minghao is my enemy; he wants to get rid of me. What’s the best way to do that?"

Miao Jingjing: "What?"

Shi Yaoguang looked at her, his eyes brimming with intense interest, "Of course, it’s by utilizing certain means to first crush me."

"For example... to have me kill someone in full view of the public."

Miao Jingjing shuddered, filled with dread.

If things were really as Shi Yaoguang said, then...

She was truly seeking death.

If the other party wanted to kill Shi Yaoguang, they wouldn’t just frame him lightly.

It’s not like a kid’s fight where you can exchange blows and just stop when you say it’s over.

Miao Jingjing thought carefully and felt like travelling back in time to slap herself awake.

How could she be so foolish.

If she were to really die, wouldn’t everything be over?

Compared to losing her life, she felt that even if the things she did were exposed, it wouldn’t matter much.

At least, she would still be alive, wouldn’t she?

Shi Yaoguang could tell what she was thinking just by looking at her expression and immediately hooked his lips into a smile.

"Do you understand now?"

Miao Jingjing indeed understood.

Still, she remained wary of Shi Yaoguang, "Why are you telling me all this? Don’t think that by saying this, I’ll stand by your side!"

Shi Yaoguang shrugged, "Whether you stand by my side or not doesn’t matter to me at all. It’s only you... who considers yourself so important."

Miao Jingjing’s face turned slightly pale, "What do you mean?"

"Haven’t I made myself clear enough?"

Miao Jingjing didn’t speak, but her expression said it all.

What Shi Yaoguang had said, wasn’t clear enough.

"Shang Minghao is just my defeated subordinate. What impact could a defeated subordinate have on me?"

Miao Jingjing’s expression changed slightly, "Just because you say he’s your defeated subordinate, does that make it so? I could also say he’s the most formidable person."

"Yes, he’s formidable," Shi Yaoguang echoed insincerely: "So formidable that he chose Shi Yiqing and is constantly suppressed by me everywhere."

Miao Jingjing, upon hearing this, didn’t even know how to argue.

She fumbled for words awhile before managing to spit out, "Who knows if you’re just bragging?"

Shi Yaoguang gave her a helpless look, as if to say, think what you want.

After careful consideration, Miao Jingjing finally made a decision.

She said to Shi Yaoguang, "I can cooperate with you."

"Cooperate?"

Miao Jingjing showed an arrogant expression, "Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. Isn’t it just to use me? Well, today I’ll let you do so."

Having said that, she appeared somewhat triumphant and said to Shi Yaoguang, "Now, let me down!"

Shi Yaoguang tilted his head, "Let you down?"

Miao Jingjing squeezed out a smile, "I know that you created this sphere to protect me."

"I’ll follow the script you’ve arranged. Can you let me down now?"

Shi Yaoguang: "Have I arranged any script?"

Miao Jingjing: "..."

After a moment of speechlessness, she changed her approach, "You don’t have any script; I misspoke. Is that okay now?"

Shi Yaoguang nodded, looking rather reluctant, "Since you’ve said so, then I... will agree to it."

"Hmph." Miao Jingjing rolled her eyes.

Bei Ranran, who had witnessed the entire conversation between the two:

"..."

It was as if a new world had just been unveiled.

After Miao Jingjing finished speaking, Shi Yaoguang snapped her fingers, causing the Protection Shield to descend.

The people downstairs, watching the transparent sphere slowly floating down, were all somewhat shocked.

When the transparent sphere finally landed on the ground and burst open with a "pop," like a punctured balloon, everyone snapped out of it as if waking from a dream.

What they had just seen was not an illusion.

"Attention, everyone, this is not a drill!"

A chuunibyou teenager shouted.

The people around him chuckled, "What are you talking about? Hurry up and see if she’s okay..."

As they spoke, the crowd surged forward.

"Miao Jingjing, are you alright?"

"Miao Jingjing, what’s with this sphere?"

"Miao Jingjing..."

Thanks to the sphere, Miao Jingjing also enjoyed the feeling of being the center of attention.

She was feeling somewhat elated when she remembered the promise she had made to Shi Yaoguang.

Honestly, she was starting to have some regrets.

Shang Minghao hadn’t revealed his identity when he was on a call with her.

Instead of siding with Shi Yaoguang and opposing Shang Minghao, she could have pretended to know nothing.

Wouldn’t that have solved all her problems?

Shi Yaoguang, as if she knew what Miao Jingjing was thinking, suddenly leaped from the third floor and jumped down.

Those who noticed Shi Yaoguang’s move were stunned.

What was going on today?

Why was everyone so keen on jumping off buildings?

Weren’t they afraid of injuring themselves?

While pondering this, they saw the Protection Shield bounce out just as Shi Yaoguang was about to hit the ground, enveloping her completely.

The crowd: "..."

Indeed, willfulness is backed by confidence.

Shi Yaoguang retracted the Protection Shield and walked up to Miao Jingjing, smiling at her.

In her smile, Miao Jingjing saw a thick threat.

If she dared to go back on her word, her fate would definitely be...

Miao Jingjing didn’t dare to continue that line of thought and quickly reined in her original emotions.

When others asked her, she faithfully repeated the words Shi Yaoguang had instructed her to say.

"These days, you all didn’t like playing with me. At first, I didn’t know why, but now I do,"

Miao Jingjing hung her head in a manner that suggested she knew her faults and was willing to correct them, "I was too stubborn before. Even though I like Shi Yiqing, I shouldn’t have held anything against Shi Yaoguang. I will never engage in such biased behavior again."

With that, she faced Shi Yaoguang and bowed deeply, "Shi Yaoguang, I’m sorry, I was wrong before. I promise it won’t happen again."

Listenting to Miao Jingjing’s words, everyone showed an expression of disbelief.

Miao Jingjing continued, "I wanted to apologize to Shi Yaoguang just now, I wanted to be friends with her, but she refused..."

"I know I was wrong before. I don’t dare to ask to be friends with her, but I hope she can give me a chance to prove myself. That’s why I jumped from the third floor."

As she said this, she felt a lingering fear, and so did everyone present.

Miao Jingjing continued, "I was too impulsive when I jumped down, and then, you all saw what happened."

After she finished, someone immediately asked, "What was that transparent sphere all about?"

Miao Jingjing forced a smile and shook her head, "I don’t know."

Seeing that she didn’t appear to be lying, everyone could only turn to Shi Yaoguang, "Goddess, what was that sphere just now? Do you know?"
