Jiang Nuo clearly saw the fear hidden in Si Yan's eyes?
What's there to be afraid of?
He stopped struggling to free his hand from Si Yan's grasp, looked into the car, raised an eyebrow in confusion, blinked, and confirmed that he really hadn't seen wrong.
How is that bastard Lin Yu still alive?!
Almost instinctively, Jiang Nuo took half a step forward, shielding Si Yan behind her, and warily eyeing the smiling Lin Yu.
Lin Yu seemed to only then notice him looking at her, and smiled as she waved and greeted him, her tone light and cheerful, " Jiang Nuo, long time no see!"
Jiang Nuo: "..."
That's bullshit! I just killed you yesterday!
" Nuonuo, I'm scared..." Si Yan hugged her waist from behind, her tone slightly coquettish, "You can't just ignore me."
Jiang Nuo took a few deep breaths and calmed down.
The protagonist, well, has a ridiculously overpowered and illogical aura... that's acceptable!
If all else fails, we can always find another opportunity to kill them!
He waved back, "Long time no see."
Then the smile vanished in an instant.
She slapped Si Yan's hand away and walked to the back seat of the car alone.
Si Yan was in pain. He looked down at his hand, which had been slapped red. His handsome face fell, and his phoenix eyes were bloodshot, as if he would cry at any moment.
I thought... once Nuonuo's red eyes disappeared, I could forgive him.
Everyone in the car. "...!"
Production team: Huh? What happened? Weren't you two all lovey-dovey and inseparable in the last episode?!
The strongest reactions came from the live stream viewers who had already started watching the broadcast.
[Aaaaaah! What happened to my ship?! What happened?!]
[ God Nuo, what's wrong with you?! Why are you ignoring Si Yan?! He's almost crying, waaaaaah!]
[This is utterly ridiculous! What couple doesn't argue? Arguing is what makes a couple real! (I'm sure of it!)]
[Ah~ Si Jiaojiao beautiful tears, high-definition and uncensored!]
Pu Sang scratched at the car seat, almost peeking out to see Si Yan's expression. To his surprise, he saw Brother Yan's face crying. He had never seen anything like it before.
Si Yan silently walked to Jiang Nuo's side, squeezing in regardless, determined to sit inside, muttering to herself, "If you won't let me sit, then kick me out."
Jiang Nuo simply pretended not to hear, touched the tip of her nose, and looked innocently at the group of people with strange expressions, "Aren't you going to introduce yourselves?"
A girl in a denim outfit with shoulder-length short hair and a lollipop in her mouth was the first to raise her hand. "Hello, Brother Nuo, my name is Pu Sang, I'm nineteen years old, a member of the Dao Xuan Association, and my ability is..."
" Pu Sang," Si Yan suddenly interrupted her.
Realizing there were other people in the car, the Pu Sang immediately covered its mouth, gave an embarrassed laugh, and made a zipping motion, saying, "My abilities are a secret, but anyway, I'm very useful!"
Jiang Nuo glanced at her, then at Si Yan, and thought to herself that Si Yan was indeed a member of the association, and probably held a powerful position.
A muscular man, dressed in a simple short-sleeved shirt and exuding raw masculinity, turned around, but his appearance was incredibly ugly. He seemed taciturn, only uttering five words woodenly, " Wu Chou, a corpse driver."
Jiang Nuo exclaimed, giving a thumbs up, "A royal flush!"
[Ahhh, corpse drivers!! What a mysterious profession! No wonder they're so ugly (not really). I heard that everyone who drives a corpse has to be ugly.]
The man sitting at the front stroked his beard. He didn't look very old, but his long beard looked rather odd.
" Li Ta, a family heirloom Daoist master."
Jiang Nuo's gaze fell on the last person's face. After a two-second silence, she found it rather strange. "Why are you here too?"
Zhou Yize smiled gently as she looked at him.
"You mentioned ghosts and stuff before, which I found quite interesting, so I came to try it out."
"If ghosts really exist, Xiao Nuo should protect..."
"Shut up!" Si Yan suddenly interrupted coldly, her phoenix eyes filled with rejection. "You're not allowed to shout like that. Who gave you permission?"
Zhou Yize smiled instead of getting angry, glanced at him lightly, and said in a calm and even tone, "Why are you angry? Xiao Nuo herself didn't say anything."
Si Yan was furious and was about to explode when he remembered that he and Jiang Nuo were still arguing.
As her thoughts raced, her eyes suddenly filled with tears. Taking advantage of sitting side by side, she leaned her head on Jiang Nuo's shoulder, looking utterly heartbroken, her voice choked with sobs.
" Nuonuo... it's fine if you want to give me the cold shoulder, but you can't treat me like this and let others take advantage of me."
Jiang Nuo looked at him blankly, "I didn't."
They would never admit to something they didn't do!
"But Zhou Yize... saying this makes me uncomfortable."
Si Yan let out a soft sob, her fingertips brushing against the corner of her eye as if wiping away tears.
Jiang Nuo glared at Zhou Yize, and said sternly, "Please call me by my full name."
I'm still having a cold war with Si Yan. If you do this, it'll make Si Yan act cute, and I'll have a hard time resisting. It'll be so embarrassing for me!
Zhou Yize: "..."
Okay, okay, in the end they lost because they didn't know how to be a green tea bitch, damn it.
Holy crap! So President Zhou's target is Jiang Nuo! What a domineering CEO's brave pursuit plan!
[Is President Zhou trying to take advantage of this situation?!] Suddenly excited!
[No way! I'll never change my mind about the Yan Nuo CP! It's reversible but can never be broken up, waaaaaah!]
[Wait a minute... Jiang Nuo's reaction... it feels like she and President Zhou old acquaintances?]
[White Moonlight and Cinnabar Mole? (doge)]
Lin Yu secretly rolled his eyes in his mind, wondering why Lin Yu had been interested in this pretty Si Yan before.
Pu Sang cleared her throat and began the task Si Yan had given her. She moved over and leaned against the back of Jiang Nuo's chair. " Brother Nuo, I have something to tell you."
"Yesterday, Brother Yan came home and woke up feeling very sad. He had hurt his arm himself; he looked terrible."
Hearing this, Jiang Nuo felt a pang of sympathy. His first reaction was to look at Si Yan's arm. Si Yan looked up at him with a wronged expression and pulled up his sleeve.
A noticeable scratch, the wound scabbed over.
" Nuonuo, you're blowing smoke."
Jiang Nuo stubbornly puffed out her cheeks, "What are you bragging about? I'm not bragging."
He pulled down his sleeve, subtly wiping the wound, then suddenly a thought struck him. He turned to Pu Sang and asked, "What did you just say?"
Pu Sang was stunned. "Huh? I said Brother Yan is injured."
"The previous sentence."
"I said Brother Yan was very sad after he got home... Oh dear."
Pu Sang made a face, let out an "oh," and covered his mouth, refusing to speak.
Si Yan's vision went black, and he leaned on Jiang Nuo's shoulder, remaining silent.
"Going home? How did Pu Sang know? Your family is with the Dao Xuan Association?"
Jiang Nuo looked down at him and chuckled, "I thought you weren't free in the association, but it's your home now."
"No," Si Yan muttered softly, "This is where we live now, this is home."
After driving for a long time, Jiang Nuo was still angry and hadn't figured out whether the feelings between the two stemmed from Love Soul or something else, so she simply ignored Si Yan.
Zhou Yize would strike up a conversation with him from time to time, but Jiang Nuo, preoccupied with his own thoughts, would only reply casually.
Si Yan was feeling carsick and uncomfortable, and then she had to witness Jiang Nuo chatting and joking with other men, while ignoring her completely.
Si Yan, who had always been pampered by Jiang Nuo, could not allow such a thing to happen.
