Chapter 478 Respect them, accept impermanence

Soon, Meng Xiaokai and He Lewei sent their personal information to the group chat.

The middle-aged man's name is Ma Jingwen. He is 42 years old and works as a botanical researcher.

The middle-aged woman's name is Lin Manqing. She is 43 years old and works as a classical dance teacher.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Yuan raised an eyebrow slightly. No wonder the woman had such a good temperament; she was a classical dance teacher.

The couple had a daughter named Ma Yinyin.

She skipped over the other information, saw the contact details, and dialed Lin Manqing's number directly. After a few rings, a soft woman's voice came through, "Hello."

"Hello, are you Ms. Lin Manqing?" Jiang Yuan asked.

Lin Manqing: "Yes, may I ask who you are?"

"Ms. Lin, my name is Jiang Yuan. Jiang is the same as ginger, and Yuan is the same as orchid. I am an animal live streamer on Douyin, and I am good at communicating with all kinds of animals. I just went into the wrong private room where you were dining... May I ask if you have a daughter named Ma Yinyin?"

Lin Manqing was slightly taken aback and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

Animal livestreamer? What does that have to do with Yinyin?

Jiang Yuan spoke calmly and clearly: "Ms. Lin, are you with your friends right now? You can remain silent and search for my videos on the platform first. If you believe I can communicate with animals, then I will tell you what might happen next."

The carriage was dimly lit. Lin Manqing and her daughter sat in the last row. She glanced at her daughter and replied, "Okay."

She kept the call connected, opened Douyin (TikTok), and typed "Jiang Yuan" into the search bar.

She found most of the video content to be somewhat bizarre.

Are there really people in the world who can communicate with animals?

Lin Manqing glanced at a few clips, then put the phone back to her ear and whispered, "Miss Jiang, how did you get my contact information?"

Jiang Yuan said softly, "Would it be convenient to add you on WeChat? Let's chat on WeChat."

Lin Manqing hesitated for a moment, but then agreed, "Okay, then add me on WeChat."

"Okay." Jiang Yuan quickly completed the operation. "It's been added. Please approve it."

Lin Manqing: "Okay."

Once Jiang Yuan confirmed that the other party had added her as a friend, she ended the call.

She quickly edited the text and sent it:

Ms. Lin, what I'm about to say may seem absurd, but I still feel it's necessary to remind you.

The couple you were with were jealous because their son's college entrance exam scores weren't as good as your daughter's. Tonight, the five black dogs at the bamboo rice restaurant overheard their conversation.

After the car traveled along a bumpy stretch of road, Lin Manqing saw this content and instantly felt dizzy.

She frowned, thought for a moment, and typed a few words in reply: 【What conversation?】

Jiang Yuan: [They think your family is too smug, that your attitude is hurting their son, and that they want to ruin your daughter, Ma Yinyin.]

Jiang Yuan: [Do you remember when I went into your private room tonight? Actually, I didn't go to the wrong room; I just wanted to remember what you looked like.]

Lin Manqing frowned, seemingly unable to process what she was learning.

She looked up at the woman in the front row; this was her best friend, someone she had known since junior high school, for thirty years now.

Compared to Jiang Yuan, Lin Manqing clearly trusted her best friend more.

She replied: "Ms. Jiang, I'm so sorry, I can't cooperate with you to record the footage. I've known Ah Xian for thirty years, and I know her very well. She's not the kind of person you're describing."

【Ah Xian is very good to my daughter. She often sends her food, clothes, and other necessities. She said her biggest regret is not having a daughter, so she loves my daughter as if she were her own.】

Lin Manqing's reply was actually within Jiang Yuan's expectations. "Yuan Yuan, how is it?" Fu Xiaoxiao craned her neck to look at the passenger seat.

Jiang Yuan sighed and shook her head. "She doesn't believe it. She thinks her best friend is spoiling her daughter like her own."

Xixi, sitting in the last row, was frantic. "Honestly, she's going to ruin her daughter!"

"That's right!" Fu Xiaoxiao was also impatient. "Haven't you heard that she's 'better safe than sorry'?"

Compared to the two young girls, Shi Junyan appeared very calm. "Since that's the case, then let's respect them. We've done our best, and we can only accept the impermanence of life."

Allow others to bear the consequences of their choices.

Jiang Yuan sighed, "If she really doesn't want to believe it, then we can't force her."

However, now that she knew about it, she couldn't just stand by and watch the girl fall into danger.

The most radiant and dazzling moments of her life have only just begun.

Jiang Yuan pursed her lips and said softly, "I'll have Xiao Kai and the others try to find the car's location using the Skynet system first."

"Okay." Chen Ziqi nodded.

Jiang Yuan returned to Lin Manqing's chat window and sent a final message: "That's all I wanted to say. Best wishes."

The black van drove aimlessly through the night.

On the other side, Lin Manqing gripped her phone tightly, feeling a strange unease as she waited for Jiang Yuan's reply.

A vibration came from her palm. She lowered her eyes to unlock it and saw the few numbers displayed on the screen. Her brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

What exactly does this person mean?
Weren't we supposed to be recording footage?

Lin Manqing turned her head and stared blankly at her daughter—she was wearing a pair of white wireless headphones, leaning against the car with her head tilted, her profile soft and exuding a tranquil and beautiful aura.

She reached out her hand, her fingertips touching the strands of hair that fell across the girl's face.

Sensing the commotion, Ma Yinyin turned around, took off one of her earphones, and asked with a smile, "Mom, what's wrong?"

"What are you listening to?" Lin Manqing asked casually.

Ma Yinyin: "I'm listening to English, do you want to listen together?"

Lin Manqing shook her head. "It's alright, just listen."

Luo Shuxian, sitting in the front row, rolled her eyes as she listened to the conversation between the mother and daughter.

Listening to English? She scored 200 points higher than her son in the college entrance exam, and she still listens to English? Who is she trying to disgust?
Luo Shuxian looked at her son, her face full of heartache.

Today, her son was really upset.

But her son will be happy tomorrow, because after tonight, Ma Yinyin will have no reason to be proud.

By then, it won't be that she looks down on her son, but that her in-laws look down on her.

Thinking of this, Luo Shuxian smiled and smiled in a good mood.

The car drove into the Longchuan Hot Spring Villa area.

Luo Shuxian's husband, Yue Jinpeng, parked the car and said with a smile, "Family, we've arrived."

"Finally arrived." Luo Shuxian got out of the car, rubbing her lower back, and said, "My back and butt hurt from sitting so long."

Seeing Lin Manqing and Ma Yinyin get out of the car, Luo Shuxian said with concern, "Manman, you and Yinyin must be feeling more uncomfortable sitting in the back. I'll give you a massage in a bit."

"Thank you, Aunt Xian," Ma Yinyin said obediently. "I'm not tired."

Looking at her best friend, Lin Manqing became even more certain that the female anchor was talking nonsense to record material, and that Ah Xian would never hurt her daughter.
