Chapter 180: Chapter 180: Figured It Out

Everyone watched as Jiang Kechu raised a wooden stick and walked a few steps into the river, then stood still. After a while, he suddenly thrust the stick into the water.

When he lifted the stick, there was a shiny fish dangling below.

Mai Qiqi cheered, forgetting the displeasure she had just felt, and hurriedly went to pick up the fish Jiang Kechu threw onto the riverbank.

In a short while, Jiang Kechu speared seven or eight fish, each big and fatty, which delighted the three of them immensely.

Zhou Weining glanced at Jiang Kechu who was still spearing fish, and quietly asked Mai Qiqi, "Who is this guy?"

Mai Qiqi glanced at Wan Chu’er sitting and resting on the riverbank, chuckled and said, "Can’t you tell? He’s Wan Chu’er’s boyfriend."

No wonder! Zhou Weining understood and gave Wan Chu’er a mischievous smile.

Naturally, Wan Chu’er heard their conversation but said nothing in defense.

In that instant when she was almost suffocating in the water, the last thought she had was of Jiang Kechu.

Her sorrow also stemmed from Jiang Kechu; she could no longer deceive herself, she undoubtedly loved Jiang Kechu.

Her previous resistance towards Jiang Kechu was due to their not so good experience in the past life—they hastily started but failed to reach the end, all because of her foolishness and meddling.

In her past life, she wholeheartedly believed Zhuo Yao’s words, perhaps also because of her own insecurities, she wreaked havoc in the Jiang family, turning it into a mess, eventually leaving because she couldn’t face Jiang Family and Jiang Kechu any longer, prompted by a guilty conscience.

At that time, she believed that only by disappearing from the Jiang family could Jiang Kechu have a better future, and the Jiang Family return to happiness.

This time, without Zhuo Yao’s interference, and having been admitted to the first university, she wasn’t a nameless, destitute person taken in by Jiang Kechu anymore.

This time, she could try to start over with Jiang Kechu.

If she could live her life again, why couldn’t she start over with Jiang Kechu?

This time she wouldn’t cause trouble, she would live well with Jiang Kechu and get along well with the Jiang Family, perhaps reaching a different outcome.

Wan Chu’er watched Jiang Kechu fishing in the river and had never felt he was so attractive and charming.

Jiang Kechu seemed to feel Wan Chu’er’s gaze, turning his head to see her looking at him with a beaming smile; his whole presence seemed different than before.

He keenly felt this was a good sign, so he threw the wooden stick aside and walked towards Wan Chu’er with large strides.

Wan Chu’er watched him approaching, felt his intense presence coming towards her, didn’t dodge as usual, but looked directly at Jiang Kechu.

Jiang Kechu felt like there were hooks in Wan Chu’er’s wide eyes, stirring his emotions.

"What’s the matter?" Jiang Kechu asked in a husky voice.

Wan Chu’er bit her lip, staring straight at Jiang Kechu, and softly said, "Suddenly, I find you very attractive."

Jiang Kechu was stunned, somewhat in disbelief, his Adam’s apple moved, and after a while, he asked,

"Have you figured it out?"

"Yes, I’ve fallen in love with Uncle Jiang."

Wan Chu’er spoke calmly and frankly.

Jiang Kechu was frozen, but his blood raced crazily, making his heart pound like a drum as if celebrating, roaring...

Watching the stunned Jiang Kechu, Wan Chu’er curved her lips, Did she scare him?

Not far away, Mai Qiqi and Zhou Weining were discussing how to bring the fish back and how to distribute them, completely unaware of the romantic feelings stirring between Jiang Kechu and Wan Chu’er.

Mai Qiqi proudly said: "Brother Jiang is my idol, just look at him casually spearing so many fish, we’re in for a treat."

Zhou Weining awkwardly touched his nose, feeling utterly inadequate compared to Jiang Kechu who effortlessly caught so many fish, and he couldn’t help but secretly sigh at the huge gap between people!

Suddenly, they heard a cute laugh, and both quickly turned to look.

They saw Jiang Kechu carrying Wan Chu’er on his shoulder, as excited as if he won a five-million jackpot, spinning around on the riverbed. Wan Chu’er was sitting on Jiang Kechu’s shoulders, laughing joyfully without restraint.

Mai Qiqi was stunned, feeling that this scene was just too beautiful; she had never seen Wan Chu’er so openly happy before.

What a blissful scene!

So blissful that it made people jealous. Mai Qiqi thought to herself that the usually calm Brother Jiang also had such a carefree side; this must be true love.

Zhou Weining chuckled: "No wonder Wan Chu’er has never shown any interest in other guys, she has such a boyfriend."

Mai Qiqi blankly nodded, thinking that when she gets back to Beijing, she’d like An Zihao to carry her around like that too; it looks fun.

After the excitement, Jiang Kechu carefully put Wan Chu’er down, making sure: "You really thought it through? You didn’t just have a momentary lapse of reason, did you?"

How could you say that!

It’s your brain that has water!

Wan Chu’er immediately frowned, eyes blazing: "Jiang Kechu!"

Jiang Kechu instantly realized how his words were asking for a punch; he became overly excited and admitted his mistake: "I spoke nonsense."

Wan Chu’er then snorted.

At that moment, Wan Chu’er remembered Jiang Kechu’s sudden appearance and asked: "Weren’t you out on a mission, how did you suddenly show up here? Was your mission around this area?"

That’s too coincidental, and to have saved her again.

Wan Chu’er couldn’t help but wonder, could this be fate? The unbreakable fate between her and Jiang Kechu?

Hearing Wan Chu’er’s question, Jiang Kechu immediately thought of the pretty boy back in Beijing; his expression first hardened, then softened thinking of what Wan Chu’er had just said.

This shift stupefied Wan Chu’er, even the weather in June wasn’t as fast-changing as Jiang Kechu’s face. What happened?

Jiang Kechu gently explained: "The mission is already completed, I came here specifically to find you."

"Ah? Specifically to find me? What happened?" Wan Chu’er was shocked; from Beijing to here was not an easy trip.

Jiang Kechu smiled: "To check if you completed the task I assigned before I left."

Just for this?

Wan Chu’er paused, gave him a sideways glance, thinking he really must be idle! But why did she feel so happy about it?

Jiang Kechu, stirred by that look from Wan Chu’er, felt that coming here was the right decision.

"Brother Jiang, Wan Chu’er, sorry to interrupt, but shouldn’t we be heading back? You must be hungry by now, right?" Mai Qiqi, not far away, who had been drooling over the fish in the bucket, finally mustered up the courage to shout at them.

Wan Chu’er laughed, knowing this guy definitely wanted to eat fish, and it just so happened she wanted to eat too.

Thus, the group of four packed up their things and started the hike back home.

Wan Chu’er and Jiang Kechu’s previously water-soaked clothes had dried quickly under the sun, and after such a long break, Wan Chu’er’s spirit and strength had largely recovered.
