Chapter 208 Residence
“I have a place to stay.” Jiang Mian took out his personal terminal.
She joined the Imperial Research Institute and signed a several-month contract. The Empire provided her with an apartment as her residence.
Of course, this house belonged to Jiang Mian while she was employed, but it no longer belonged to her after she left the job.
At this moment, Jiang Mian was using his personal computer to retrieve the address of that apartment.
After confirming the address, Jiang Mian originally planned to go to her own place.
A figure stormed up to her, his voice flaring: "Jiang Mian! Why are you so difficult to please!"
Jiang Mian paused, then looked up to see a young man with silver-gray hair standing in front of her, his face extremely unpleasant: "You really have a big face. Your second brother came to pick you up in person and you still dare to give him a hard time. I really don't know why Mom and Dad care about your blood relation and even made us come to pick you up. Hurry up and come back with us, and stop embarrassing yourself here."
Jiang Mian recognized him this time: Jiang Qi, the original owner's younger brother.
However, they all spoke quite rudely.
Although Jiang Mian knew that the original owner had offended the other party, which was why the Jiang family members did not give her a friendly look.
However, Jiang Mian still didn't feel a sense of identification, since these were the original owner's relatives, not hers.
Jiang Mian figured that the other person didn't like her either, so she would just avoid contact with him and act like a stranger.
I never expected the Jiang family to care so much about the original owner of this body.
However, it's understandable. Bringing his own daughter back to the capital and personally holding a press conference to announce it shows how much he dotes on her.
If the original owner hadn't been pretentious, and Jiang Yu hadn't framed him, he would have lived a very good life with the Jiang family as his backer.
Seeing that Jiang Mian was ignoring him and seemed about to say something nasty, Jiang Qi pushed him away with one arm, interrupting what he was about to say.
A man stepped forward, his hair neatly combed, wearing glasses, exuding a more composed demeanor. He handed over a black and gold key card and said slowly, "Now that you're back, settle down and stop causing trouble. This is a villa in Qingshui Residence, given to you by your father. Go live there."
The man in front of her was none other than Jiang Xu, the original owner's elder brother.
Compared to the original owner's second and younger brothers, this eldest brother's words were more agreeable.
Jiang Mian paused for a moment. She wasn't the original owner of this body, and she didn't actually want to enjoy these things that didn't belong to her.
But then she thought again, since she had taken on so many heinous debts for the original owner, it wouldn't hurt for her to accept the benefits that were rightfully hers.
Jiang Mian felt relieved, took the access card, and said, "Thank you."
"Oh, so you actually know how to say thank you." Another figure leaned over, it was Jiang Qi, his voice laced with sarcasm, "Looks like you've suffered a lot on this exile planet, you've even learned to act like a grandson."
Jiang Mian:......
I really want to teach my younger brother a lesson on behalf of the original owner.
However, she didn't suffer at all on the exile planet; in fact, she was quite happy, spending her days snuggling up with her beast husband.
“Let’s go, I’ll take you there.” Jiang Xu nodded, then looked at the five beastmen behind her. “Are these your beast slaves? Do any of them know how to drive hovercars? I have hovercars here.”
Jiang Mian paused, then shook her head: "It's alright, they have hovercars, they'll follow."
After she said that, Jiang Xu didn't say anything more.
Jiang Xu was supposed to be discussing business, but Jiang Liang couldn't pick him up and the talks fell through. So, Jiang's parents asked Jiang Xu to go pick him up. They probably knew that Jiang Liang and Jiang Qi weren't exactly known for their kind words and had likely offended someone, so they had no choice but to ask Jiang Xu to cancel the business meeting and go pick them up.
On the road.
It was very quiet inside the hovercar.
Jiang Qi sat in the back seat just like her, glancing at her from time to time, mainly wondering why Jiang Mian had changed so much.
Not only has her demeanor changed, but she has also become much more polite.
Could it be an act?
He wanted to see when she would reveal her true colors.
He's acting so polite now, probably because he's afraid of being exiled again.
Jiang Qi thought about it more and more and felt that this was the case.
At this moment, Jiang Mian turned to look at him and asked in a calm tone, "You've been staring at me. Is there something you want to say to me?"
Jiang Qi paused, a mocking smile curving his lips: "Yes, I'm warning you, now that you're back, just do your job properly and don't bother Sister Yu's life anymore. If you dare to cause trouble for Sister Yu again, just you wait and see."
Jiang Mian raised an eyebrow slightly. What was she going to do? She was back to cause trouble for her.
She didn't speak, nor did she want to say anything more to Jiang Qi. She simply turned her head away and refused to look at him again, her agreement unclear. Seeing that Jiang Mian was ignoring him, Jiang Qi merely snorted coldly.
Shimizu-ju is also a place where wealthy people live.
The Jiang brothers left after dropping her off here, as if they wanted to leave her to fend for herself.
On the other side, Jiang Yu knew that Jiang's father had given Jiang Mian a villa and even had his older brother personally pick her up, and his eyes couldn't help but darken.
Even if she wasn't his biological daughter, he had raised her for over twenty years. Even without blood ties, there should still be some affection between them.
But they still value that so-called kinship.
Jiang Mian did so many vicious things, can she be forgiven in the end just because of family ties?
Jiang Yu felt resentful. As long as Jiang Mian lived, someone would remind her that she was of lowly blood from the slums.
No, she can exile Jiang Mian once, and then she can exile him a second time.
Jiang Yu's eyes sharpened as she manipulated something on the quantum computer.
Jiang Mian entered the villa, released the Xiao Rong robot, and looked at the beastmen: "You can stay in whichever room you want."
"Which room does my sister stay in?" Chi Lin asked with a smile.
Jiang Mian paused for a moment, it seemed that she had been chosen first again.
Without any hesitation, she pointed to the master bedroom in the middle: "I'll stay in that one."
I live next to you.
I live next to you.
……
Five voices sounded at the same time.
For a moment, the five people subconsciously looked at each other, and then all landed next to Jiang Mian.
Jiang Mian coughed lightly: "It's time to draw lots again."
"I refuse the lottery method," Rong Fei said slowly.
They're bound to lose in the draw, so how can we let someone cheat?
“I refuse too.” Chi Lin sneered.
"Hmm, I also refuse," Li Yan replied indifferently.
“Yes, I refuse.” Zhao Ci raised his eyebrows slightly.
Rin Yu: ...
Jiang Mian paused for a moment: "So what method do you want to use?"
"Whoever grabs it first gets to keep it, how about that?" Rong Fei smiled slightly.
No one else had an opinion.
Rin Yu: ...
He was outnumbered and outmaneuvered, so he had no choice but to complain.
"Then please count to three, and we'll start grabbing. First come, first served!" Chi Lin smiled.
Seeing that they had all made their decisions, Jiang Mian nodded: "Okay, then I'll count them."
Five people stood in a row.
Jiang Mian, standing to the side, cleared his throat: "One..."
She had only counted to one when all five of them rushed forward.
Jiang Mian:......
