The Time-Limited Love and Marriage -
Chapter 132
Chapter 132: Chapter 132
Ling Ye was not only good at fighting but also nearly 1.9 meters tall.
He wore a white basketball uniform, looking like the handsome, sunny male protagonist straight out of a campus novel.
So when he showed up, he immediately captured the attention of everyone in Jiang Moxi’s class.
Including Lai Xueer.
The moment Lai Xueer saw Ling Ye, his handsome, sunny face always dazzled her.
But whenever she thought about Ling Ye coming to their class to look for Jiang Moxi, surely teaming up to pursue her, Lai Xueer, she couldn’t help feeling indescribably irritable.
She had just gotten a new boyfriend whose family owns a nice chain of restaurants.
Feeling like she was one step into a wealthy family, Lai Xueer found Ling Ye’s persistence in bothering her as if hindering her from ascending to immortality. It was just too immoral.
But she didn’t know that Ling Ye’s conversation with Jiang Moxi had nothing to do with her.
"Moxi, where have you been these past days?"
As soon as Ling Ye saw Jiang Moxi, he went straight to the point.
"I haven’t gone anywhere, just stayed at home for a few days."
Jiang Moxi didn’t want to mention the sad events and tried to casually change the subject.
"Why didn’t you reply to my messages then, if you were just at home?" Ling Ye continued to press.
It was precisely because Jiang Moxi hadn’t replied to his messages, combined with the incident before Jiang Moxi’s disappearance, which connected a furious Fu Youhan storming off in anger, that made Ling Ye have a very bad foreboding—Jiang Moxi might have been killed by the uncle!
Because she coveted the uncle’s beauty too much, she might have been unable to bear it anymore and directly took her "dog life"!
Therefore, during the days of Jiang Moxi’s disappearance, Ling Ye was almost insomniac every night.
The Jiang Moxi, who had caused him so much worry, reappeared before him, glowing with health.
While Ling Ye was relieved, he also felt a little annoyed.
"I was busy these days, so I turned off my phone."
Jiang Moxi didn’t lie to Ling Ye, the Jiang Family had been constantly changing numbers to contact her, annoying her to the point where she turned off her phone.
"Alright, as long as you’re still alive and well."
Ling Ye more or less accepted what Jiang Moxi said but then proposed: "We’re having a dinner together on Sunday; come join us."
"I won’t go." Jiang Moxi always disliked bustle.
"Why not? Huahua has her mock test ending right on Sunday. The results won’t be out until Monday. Only then can it be decided whether you’ll continue tutoring. You’re going to be idle at home anyway, so come with us."
"I could work at the milk tea shop." Jiang Moxi was persistent.
"How much can you earn in a day from working at a milk tea shop? We also have a lottery draw during the gathering, if by any chance you win the grand prize, there’ll be over a thousand bucks, and even the consolation prize is over a hundred. Isn’t that better than working at the milk tea shop?"
Jiang Moxi was somewhat tempted upon hearing the prize amount.
Indeed, over a hundred bucks was better than a day’s casual work at the milk tea shop.
"There’s a lottery draw? Can I join too?" Mu Wanting, ever the social butterfly, prepared to jump in as well.
Ling Ye agreed readily.
Thus, with Mu Wanting joining the persuasion, Jiang Moxi, unable to resist these two, also agreed.
But what Jiang Moxi didn’t know was that Ling Ye’s invitation to the gathering was just a pretense. He actually wanted her to participate in the matchmaking event.
After worrying for several days that Jiang Moxi had been reduced to bones and ashes by Fu Youhan, Ling Ye had already decided to help Jiang Moxi find a partner to shift her focus.
To keep her from having inappropriate thoughts about Fu Youhan and provoking him to wrath.
Ling Ye achieved his goal, and soon left with his brothers.
And as soon as Ling Ye left, Mu Wanting couldn’t help but whisper to Jiang Moxi.
"Did you see that look Lai Xueer gave us just now? She must be worried we’re helping Ling Ye chase after her."
Jiang Moxi followed Mu Wanting’s gaze and also saw Lai Xueer’s annoyed expression.
But at this moment, Jiang Moxi was more focussed on Lai Xueer’s outfit.
"How did she end up looking like this?"
Before, most of Lai Xueer’s outfits were chosen in line with her pure and innocent school beauty persona.
But now, she was in a tiny camisole and ultra-short skirt, topped off with a pair of black stockings and smoky makeup.
She looked like she had aged a dozen years in an instant – more like someone who came out of a nightclub.
"I heard she’s been dating Niu Wei from Ling Ye’s class recently. It’s probably dressed to his taste."
Jiang Moxi nodded and then didn’t ask anything more about Lai Xueer.
After all, Lai Xueer had nothing to do with her. Even if Lai Xueer went naked, at most she would just cover her eyes with her hands to avoid being hurt by the sight.
Jiang Moxi had four classes today.
After her classes, just as she was exiting the school gates, a conspicuous sports car stopped right in front of her.
In the car, Si Lin with his black sunglasses, was casually handling the steering wheel, creating an enticing scene around the college area, that inadvertently drew the gaze of the passing college students towards them.
However, Si Lin didn’t seem to care about the envious looks around him. After taking off his sunglasses, his eyes lingered on Jiang Moxi from head to toe.
It wasn’t until he confirmed that there were no visible injuries on Jiang Moxi that he let out a light chuckle: "Seems like nothing’s wrong."
Jiang Moxi, staring at the man’s slightly ruffian look, narrowed her eyes slightly and quickly realized he was referring to Bu Xin’s matter.
Yan City, not so big or small, anything of any size could spread within the circles.
With a little inquiry, Si Lin could find out most of what happened.
She pondered for a moment, then asked Si Lin, "Seeing that nothing happened to me, are you disappointed?"
Si Lin chuckled lowly: "Jiang Moxi, I practically crushed the entire Bu Family for you. You hurt my feelings with those words."
Jiang Moxi’s beautiful and charming face showed a trace of surprise, and she remained silent for a long time.
These past few days, she had switched off her phone and had not left Tianqin Bay at all, so naturally, she was unaware of the Bu Family’s collapse.
So all this was really done by Si Lin?
Seeing Jiang Moxi’s delayed response, Si Lin smirked again:
"Alright, I only did these things because you’re my girlfriend in name only. Otherwise, if you really were bullied by Bu Xin and I did nothing, outsiders would think I’m too weak."
With these words, Jiang Moxi’s expression finally lost its solemnity.
"Then thank you. But you don’t need to do it again, I can handle it myself."
Act instead of just talking – that’s always been Jiang Moxi’s code of conduct.
She preferred dealing with Bu Xin herself, rather than waiting for someone else to handle it.
"Since you want to thank me, how about we have lunch together? I’ve booked a private kitchen..."
Si Lin was only halfway through his sentence when a car opposite suddenly honked its horn prolongedly.
Jiang Moxi and Si Lin looked in the direction of the sound and saw a low-key black business car parked opposite Si Lin.
Chi Jing in the driver’s seat was giving an awkward smile towards them.
And in the back seat, Fu Youhan was watching them expressionlessly, exuding a dangerous chill...
