Chapter 134 Secretly
Jiang Mian saw the message from Lin Xuan and was about to reply with a "okay" when the other party sent another message in the next second.

Lin Xuan: Hey! Is it true that a male model died from being given strong drugs in one night by eighteen men?

Jiang Mian's finger paused on the screen: ...

She quickly replied: The story is true, but the truth is false.

This was naturally a scheme orchestrated by the fake heiress against the original owner.

The original owner's reputation was ruined because of this incident, and it also caused the Jiang family in the capital to lose face. In addition, the male models' families appealed, and the matter became too big. Before this, the original owner had done many things that hurt her real parents, so the federal court sentenced her to exile, and her family did not say anything.

No one believed the original owner's explanation, and she had no evidence, so Jiang Yu beat her to death.

Lin Xuan quickly sent another video.

Lin Xuan: That Jiang Yu is getting married to the Imperial Commander in a few days. They're a perfect match, a high-level healer and an Imperial Commander. I'm so envious.

Jiang Mian paused, clicked in to take a look, and saw a news report that Jiang Yu, a 3A-level advanced healer, and Lu Zhi, the commander of the empire, would be getting married on a certain date. The wedding would be broadcast live across the entire interstellar space, and the commander of the empire would also distribute a 10 billion yuan wedding live broadcast red envelope to the entire interstellar space.

She paused slightly when she saw the figure of 10 billion, it seems Jiang Yu is doing better and better now.

However, Jiang Yu was no good, and neither was the original owner of this body.

Lin Xuan: I heard that this marriage was originally intended to be a union between the Lu family and the Jiang family. This marriage was originally meant for you, the true daughter of the family, but you were exiled, so the marriage was given to Jiang Yu.

When Jiang Mian saw this sentence, the corner of her mouth twitched slightly. It really made her feel like everyone knew about the Jiang family's petty affairs in the capital.

Jiang Mian: Read, please do not disturb.

She replied with just four words and then turned off the personal terminal.

Whether Jiang Yujie gets married or not, and who she marries, is none of her business.

Jiang Mian continued her experiments.

While she was conducting experiments, a flash of inspiration struck her, and Jiang Mian used this inspiration to repeatedly mix reagents, becoming completely absorbed in the process of refining medicine.

Time passed by unnoticed, and she didn't even realize it.

She poured out another bottle of expired reagent and was about to start a new round of reagent preparation when her wrist was encircled by a large, slender, and slightly cool hand. A clear, cold voice sounded beside her: "It's late, get some rest."

Jiang Mian paused, turned her gaze to the side, and saw Lin Yu's long, narrow red eyes quietly looking at her, his eyelids slightly lowered. When he saw her looking over, his wine-like eyes rippled slightly, and he softly repeated two words: "Rest."

"Huh? When did you get back?" Jiang Mian looked at him with some surprise and delight.

He was wearing a black overcoat, the fine fabric of which was faintly covered with tiny water droplets, likely from the moisture he had picked up from outside.

After all, the hand he held in hers was a little cold.

"I returned shortly after you came back," Lin Yu said softly.

After he returned, he stood by the gate of the courtyard, watching her work on the reagents for a long time, but Jiang Mian did not notice him.

I thought Jiang Mian would go back to sleep after doing the experiment for a while, but I didn't expect her to stay there for so long.

So Lin Yu went over, which led to the scene just now.

"Is it raining outside?" Jiang Mian glanced at his clothes.

"Hmm, just a drizzle." Lin Yu's thin lips moved slightly.

"I'll tidy up first, then I'll go rest." Jiang Mian looked up at him and smiled slightly. She gently grasped his cold hand and shook it slightly before letting go to tidy up the equipment.

Lin Yu then slowly walked over and helped her put away the equipment.

Jiang Mian had initially wanted him to stop helping, since he might not know where some utensils should be placed, or how to wash and dry them before putting them away. However, Lin Yu silently and skillfully washed and dried them for her, placing them where Jiang Mian usually kept her utensils.

It's understandable if he knew what to use to clean and dry, but how come he knew exactly where she usually put these utensils?

Jiang Mian paused, and seeing that Lin Yu had helped tidy up without making any mistakes, she stopped herself from saying that the other party didn't need to help.

After tidying up the experimental shed, the two went inside the small building.

"Lin Yu, how did you know I usually put my utensils there?" Jiang Mian asked quietly.

Her eyes blinked slightly. If it were before, Jiang Mian might not have thought much about it, but after learning that Lin Yu also liked her, she began to think more and more.

This guy is always elusive; she rarely sees him when she's making medicine. How does he know her habits?
Could this guy be secretly watching her from somewhere all the time?

Jiang Mian also remembered that in the future, when she got lost in his huge villa, which was as big as an imperial city, he was able to find her accurately and take her back.

Upon hearing her words, Lin Yu tensed up slightly, and her eyelashes trembled slightly.

He knew this because he had once again broken through the camera function of her personal terminal.

He gradually became dissatisfied with just hearing her voice; he wanted to see her every day.

So he used some high-tech means to obtain the camera function of her personal computer, and every day when he missed her, he would activate the camera function of the personal computer and let it fall on Jiang Mian.

In the dimly lit room, a phantom holographic figure was projected, and there was no one else besides her.

He replaced everyone else.

He was the only person in her world.

He reached out to grab the illusory figure, but missed; it was just a string of data exported from his surveillance system.

Before Lin Yu could speak, Jiang Mian turned her head to look at him and asked directly, "Are you always secretly watching me?"

In an instant, Lin Yu's heart, which had been heavy with unease and despair, tightened.

These things are always a bit embarrassing to share, and might even disgust Jiang Mian.

But he couldn't help it, he couldn't help it...

Now that Jiang Mian said this, does it mean she's discovered he's been spying on her?
Lin Yu's throat was dry, and all he could think about was how the other person would see him if they found out, whether they would hate him, or whether they would find him disgusting.
A feeling of suffocation welled up in his heart, making it difficult for him to breathe.

"Why are you looking secretly? If you want to look, just come and see me." Jiang Mian said directly, slightly tightening her grip on his hand. "You're doing it secretly, and I don't know, just like how you always secretly liked me before, and I didn't even know you liked me."

In her youth, when she was just beginning to experience romantic feelings, she had a crush on Lin Yu.

She had many moments of attraction, but she deliberately ignored them or couldn't think about them deeply, and she wouldn't allow these feelings to happen.

Later, I wondered how Lord Rin could like a child she raised.

In addition, she later heard someone jokingly ask him if he liked her.

He told himself that he didn't like her.

The person who took such good care of her as she grew up could only have been a father.

Later, she let it go.

Jiang Mian has never been such a coy person.
