Chapter 167 Control
The next day, Saturday.
It was the time Jiang Ning and the others agreed to go to the ancient temple together.
This morning, when Jiang Ning took the cup from the servant, he threw it hard to the ground, and the flying glass fragments cut the servant's cheek.
The servant's face was illuminated by a thin trail of red blood. This time, she didn't bow or scrape. Instead, she knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "Miss, next time I will definitely not bring you water so hot. Please don't fire me."
Jiang Ning came back to her senses, and she subconsciously wanted to kick the servant again. Jiang Ning controlled herself and took a few steps back, tripped over the stairs, and sat down on them.
Because of the commotion below, Jiang's father and mother were directly attracted out.
Jiang Li left the room and looked down at the stairs to the first floor. Jiang Ning was sitting directly on the stairs.
She ran downstairs in a hurry: "Ningning, what's wrong with you?"
Jiang Ning used one hand to suppress the other hand that was trying to push Jiang Li away, and smiled at Jiang Li: "I'm fine."
Jiang Li keenly noticed that Jiang Ning's smile was forced, and his bright little deer eyes seemed to be shrouded in dark clouds.
Jiang's mother rushed over and first looked at the servant: "What's going on?"
Because Jiang Ning had behaved so well recently, no one would suspect that it was Jiang Ning who started the trouble first.
Jiang's mother said sternly, "Don't think that the young lady is easy to talk to and bully her like this. If you can't do it, leave the Jiang family."
The maid hurriedly shook her head. If she was fired, which wealthy family would want a maid like her with a dark history of being fired?
They just work hard to earn money to support their families.
She didn't even dare to argue, and could only agree: "Madam, I will pay attention next time."
She lowered her head, her eyes red, waiting for the judgment of the master.
Jiang Ning took a deep breath and said, "Mom, it has nothing to do with her. This is my own problem. I'll give you double your salary this month as compensation. Also, don't bring me water anymore. I can pour it myself."
Jiang Ning calmed himself down until the numbness in his hands and feet subsided, then he stood up. "I'm just in a bad mood. I'll go to the ancient temple to relax and get a peace amulet for each of you."
Jiang Ning patted Jiang's mother's hand and went upstairs.
Jiang Li looked at Jiang Ning's back with worry in his eyes and asked uncertainly, "Why do I feel like she's a little weird?"
Father Jiang pondered: "It seems a little bit. Alas, the child has grown up and has some worries. It's okay, just wait for her to go out and play. Maybe she has been under a lot of pressure from studying recently?"
After Jiang's father finished speaking, he walked downstairs: "I'm going to the company. Alas, I feel that this stock is really going downhill. I will lose a lot if I throw it away..."
He walked out while muttering.
Jiang's mother didn't care much about the company's affairs, so she asked Jiang Li: "What about you? Are you still going to Beijing?"
Jiang Li nodded: "I'm leaving tomorrow. I'll show up at a commercial performance in Beijing on Monday and walk down the red carpet."
Jiang's mother nodded, looked at Jiang Li's face, and couldn't help but say, "Be careful outside... Even if you fight back, you must ensure your own personal safety first."
Jiang Li softened his expression: "I understand, thank you."
Jiang's mother wanted to say something, but in the end she just stuffed a card into Jiang Li's pocket and said, "I'll lend you this first. You'll definitely need to spend money everywhere in Beijing, so it's not a big deal to keep bothering Mr. Meng."
Jiang Li wanted to refuse, but her mother didn't give her a chance and directly stuffed it into her mouth: "Take it and use it. I'm going to the company too. Your father has been worried about Jiang Yan and the company these days and hasn't had a good rest. I'll go and make sure he eats well."
The living room was deserted.
Seeing the injured maid still cowering to one side, Jiang Li said, "Go and treat your facial wounds first. Don't be afraid, you won't be fired." The maid breathed a sigh of relief and said with tears in her eyes, "Thank you, Miss Jiang Li."
Jiang Ning was in the room, watching the changes in his body become more and more obvious.
It was as if there was a hidden soul in this body, fighting with her for sovereignty over it. Jiang Ning didn't know how long this situation would last.
She sighed, found a white casual sportswear from the closet, put on a small backpack, tied her hair into a high ponytail and went out.
She arrived at the agreed location of a group of people.
They were almost there.
From a distance, Jiang Ning saw Wei Jin waving at her with a bright smile: "Jiang Ning, here."
Sui Tang also jumped up with joy: "Cousin!"
Shen Jinhe, wearing a black leather jacket and with her black hair loose, raised her eyebrows and waved at Jiang Ning: "Jiang Ning, come quickly."
Xie Jingyan was leaning lazily at the bus stop, wearing a black windbreaker, sweatpants, a pair of hiking sneakers, and a black baseball cap on his head.
He pulled the zipper of his windbreaker to the top, and when he looked up, his thin white chin was exposed.
Further up were gentle peach blossom eyes. Although she didn't say anything when looking at Jiang Ning, she still smiled gently.
The people are still the same group of people.
Jiang Ning still found a half-familiar face in the crowd.
She looked at the gentle man with a smile beside Sui Tang.
The man saw Jiang Ning and waved to her in a friendly manner: "Hi, see you again."
Jiang Ning searched his memory and matched the face in front of him with the one at the concert.
It’s Josen who looks gentle and elegant, but is wild and unrestrained in music.
He Shang stood aside with a dark face and an unhappy look on his face, standing next to Xie Jingyan, a little distance away from Sui Tang and the others.
Jiang Ning turned to look at Sui Tang, pointed at the suddenly appeared Josen, and asked, "Why did you bring him here?"
Sui Tang scratched his hair in embarrassment. "Didn't I tell you? Josen is coming to Jincheng on Saturday, and I thought, since we're just having fun, I asked him about it. Unexpectedly, Josen put aside his work to go to the ancient temple with me. He said he'd wanted to pray for peace for a long time, so I brought him along."
After saying this, Sui Tang looked at Jiang Ning cautiously and said, "Cousin, you won't be angry, will you?"
Jiang Ning: “…”
She has brought this person here, what's the point of asking her if she is angry?
Jiang Ning was so angry that he almost laughed.
He raised his eyebrows and asked with a half-smile, "What if I get angry?"
Sui Tang was a little embarrassed and was about to speak when Josen's gentlemanly and gentle voice rang out, "I often hear Tang Tang mention you, saying that you are her most admired and favorite cousin. We met from a distance at a concert some time ago and we didn't become close friends. Now is the perfect opportunity. I really want to meet Miss Jiang Ning, but if Miss Jiang Ning minds my presence, I will leave."
Without waiting for Jiang Ning to speak, Sui Tang got anxious first: "Josen, if you leave, I won't go to the ancient temple with you either."
He Shangxian, who was at the back, couldn't hold it in any longer: "Sui Tang, are you crazy? You don't even want Jiang Ning for this man you haven't even known for a month?"
I'll post the first chapter. I suggest updating the second chapter at 12:30 AM because I won't be able to finish writing it and need to fill in some drafts...
