Tea-flavored Romance

Xiao Jiang... he's a hero, but he has a wonderful younger sister...

Thinking about it this way, my little Ling'er was much better behaved when she was little. She never tattled and was a truly sweet and considerate daughter.

Today's milk 0 - 1...

Of course, a hero is a hero, but since Xiao Jiang has already chosen to betray his country and become a counter-espionage agent, Master Ning can no longer risk his life to save him.

Suddenly I'm too scared to go up there...

He hesitated for a moment downstairs, trying to muster his courage and go up, when a figure appeared beside him like a ghost, pulled him to a corner, and quickly made a shushing gesture towards him.

"Don't make a sound!"

Master Ning was somewhat surprised for a moment. When he came to his senses, he saw that it was Jiang Chaoyun, whom he had met once before. Judging from his posture, he was undoubtedly on his side.

New heroes have emerged; how can we stand still?!

Chinese heroes, here we come!

“You guessed right, I’m here to help you.” Jiang Chaoyun pushed up his glasses and said seriously, “I know you have many questions and doubts, but please believe me…”

"No, no, no, you misunderstand. I have no problem." Master Ning waved his hands repeatedly and said, "I'll do whatever you say."

Jiang Chaoyun: ?

Are you that easy to convince? I thought you at least had some basic wariness...

Did I bet on the wrong horse? What if this guy betrays me later?

What about our plan?

"..."

"Let me think about it some more..." Jiang Chaoyun hesitated, "I'll think about it some more..."

"Don't do that! Little Jiang up there has already sacrificed himself. If we don't hurry, we'll be picked off one by one and never recover!" Master Ning said in a trembling voice, "Listen to the wailing up there, how desperate, how heartbroken... well..."

“Jiang Chaoyun…”

"Oh, Chaoyun, you can't just let Mufeng die like this!"

“But…but we can’t save him now.” Jiang Chaoyun said dejectedly, “I wanted to warn him to be careful of Jiang Muyu, but I couldn’t stop him. If I hadn’t slipped away early, he would probably have been arrested and interrogated as an accomplice.”

"So, what are you planning to do by stopping me like this...?"

"Of course..."

Jiang Chaoyun composed herself, pulled Ning Yuan around, looked around for a while to make sure no one was around, and then lowered her voice and whispered, "I can help you distract Jiang Muyu, but you'll have to handle the rest yourself."

"No problem, I'm not afraid of 1v1 at all!"

"Okay! I'll start now. You can go up by yourself when you have a chance."

"Wait, what about Mu Feng?"

"Don't worry," Jiang Chaoyun said in a low voice. "That kid has always had a strong will to survive. Once you show up and attract Sister Manyue's attention and firepower, he will find a chance to sneak away on his own. You don't need to worry about him at all."

"Then I'm relieved..." Master Ning took a deep breath: "I'm leaving!"

After speaking, Master Ning stepped onto the stairs leading to Manyue's room. Jiang Chaoyun's eager gaze and Jiang Mufeng's miserable cries all transformed into his courage to forge ahead into the tiger-like mountain.

We're about to fight the boss!

"So you feel you've been wronged?"

When Jiang Manyue's clear and captivating signature voice rang out, Master Ning couldn't help but feel a ripple in his heart. The thought of possibly having a 1v1 with Miss Manyue in her room made Ning Yuan feel a little nervous.

Full Moon must be running a knife battle room, right? She's not going to suddenly pull out a gun from behind her back and start shooting him while we're chatting, is she?

"I'm innocent! But it's not me who's innocent, it's you, Sister Manyue." Jiang Mufeng replied with a pained expression, "I didn't know what was good for me. Not only did I listen to the slander of a villain, but I also came over and disturbed Sister Manyue's reading. I should apologize to you, Sister Manyue."

Master Ning: "..."

“I don’t think I’m being wronged,” Jiang Xihua said calmly. “You can go back and tell him that he doesn’t need to waste his time.”

"So that's your attitude, Sister Manyue. I understand. From now on, if I ever see that brat Ningyuan again, I'll make sure he never returns alive!"

"But... what if that person doesn't think they're wasting their time?"

A familiar voice came from the stairwell, and Master Ning realized that Jiang Manyue and her siblings, Jiang Mufeng and Jiang Muyu, were talking in a living room on the second floor. Miss Manyue glanced at the newcomer, gave a cold snort, and seemed to have no intention of responding. Jiang Mufeng jumped up as soon as he saw Master Ning appear.

"Hey, you old scoundrel Ning, how dare you show your face in front of my sister Manyue... I think you're all that, a cow trying to fly in an airplane... If I don't teach you a lesson for my sister today, I'm not a Jiang!"

Despite his aggressive words, Jiang Mufeng, who was actually baring his teeth and brandishing his claws, maintained his menacing demeanor, shifted a step away from Master Ning, and grinned as he walked towards the stairwell. Then, in the blink of an eye, he vanished. Jiang Muyu, still on the field, sensed something was amiss, stopped eating her melon seeds, quickly put down her fruit plate, and whispered:

"Um... Sister Manyue, Jiang Chaoyun just said I have another package arriving... I'll go check it out first... You guys chat."

“Mr. Ning, I don’t think we have anything to talk about.” Jiang Manyue closed the book and said coldly, “You should be at the Gu family’s place, not here. I won’t see you off.”

"It's alright, I won't see you off any further. I'm not planning to leave anytime soon anyway." Master Ning said shamelessly, "Manyue, where are you planning to go next? I'll go with you."

"Go back to your room."

"That's perfect. It's safer for us to talk in the room, so we won't be overheard."

Jiang Mufeng, who was hiding downstairs eavesdropping on the gossip: "..."

Jiang Muyu: "..."

Jiang Chaoyun: "..."

Jiang Manyue glanced at the direction of the stairwell without making a sound, frowned and said indifferently, "I've already said it, there's nothing more to say between us. We've already said everything that needs to be said."

"But I feel like we haven't finished talking yet."

"That's what you think." Jiang Xihua walked towards her room without turning back. Ning Yuan quickly ran after her and said, "I know you're still angry, but you've been angry for so long, can't you give me a little breathing room? If not, can you pull me out of my little dark room for a bit to get some fresh air? Manyue, the most important thing in a relationship is communication, and we haven't done a good job in that... Ouch..."

With a bang, the door slammed shut. Master Ning, having been turned away at Miss Manyue's door, couldn't help but rub his nose and chuckle wryly. He gently knocked on the door and said, "Manyue... I really have a lot to say to you. Why don't you open the door first?"

Chapter 338: Xue’s current crime!

"What else do you have to say?"

Miss Manyue opened the door and stared at Master Ning expressionlessly. Seeing that Manyue's attitude had softened slightly compared to before, Ning Yuan immediately pretended to be very troubled and glanced at the stairwell: "I have a lot to say, but Manyue, walls have ears. Our private conversation can't be overheard by your younger siblings, otherwise, how can I maintain my dignity as your cousin-in-law?"

"Please adjust your mindset and perspective," Jiang Manyue said calmly. "We weren't in that kind of relationship before."

“Then it’s my ex-brother-in-law.” Master Ning said frankly, “It’s just one more word. I mainly feel sorry for them because it’s inconvenient for them to call him that.”

Jiang Manyue: "..."

What exactly do you want to say?

“Even if you’re not very interested in what I want to say, Man Yue, you must have some questions you want to ask me, right?” Ning Yuan asked. “Aren’t you curious?”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Manyue remained silent for a moment, then raised her eyes and asked, "Did you cure Grandpa Gu?"

"This is a long story, and I think it's necessary for me to sit down and tell you all about it," Master Ning hinted furiously.

"Jiang Mufeng, bring up a small stool."

"Alright! I'll be right there!"

Jiang Mufeng, the traitor, hurriedly grabbed a small stool and went upstairs. Then he slipped away quickly. Master Ning looked at the small stool in front of him and couldn't help but slowly raise his hand and ask a question mark.

Am I suggesting we sit in this thing? I'm clearly implying we can go inside and talk...

"Well, well... having a seat is better than having no seat at all." Master Ning, quite adaptable, pulled over a small stool and sat down, looking up expectantly at Jiang Xihua's delicate face:

"Could I have another glass of water? I was sitting with your dad for a while, and your mom still hadn't made the tea properly..."

This time, Jiang Manyue didn't order the traitor around. She turned and went back to her room, took out an unopened bottle of purified water, and handed it to Ning Yuan. This result disappointed Master Ning—he thought he would at least have a chance to use his girlfriend's water bottle.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. Given his current situation, the fact that he had a sip of water was already a testament to Jiang Tiandi's ability to suppress his killing intent to the greatest extent possible. If he hadn't been so curious about how Ning Yuan had resolved Old Master Gu's problem, he would probably be facing a cold door right now.

Miss Full Moon is still angry, that's for sure, but anger aside, curiosity is something she can't suppress.

"This goes back to when I first decided to pursue you. Back then, I wanted to make some money so I'd have some confidence when I came to your door," Master Ning recounted. "Later, I didn't have many good places to invest my money abroad, so I decided to invest in some strange things. In the end, I invested in a biological laboratory that was on the verge of bankruptcy... cough cough, you know, even the Resident Evil in the US was created by capitalist companies, so their labs develop all sorts of weird things..."

"You know that's not what I want to hear."

"Forehead……"

Master Ning was speechless upon hearing this, and all the words he had prepared suddenly became useless. Looking at Miss Manyue's unusually serious face, he sighed and replied softly, "Alright, if there's anything I can explain to you, then I can only say that I can't explain the origin of this thing either. If I say that I am a lucky person chosen by heaven, you might think I'm joking, but it's true. I'm very lucky, lucky enough to be able to obtain things that ordinary people cannot obtain for no reason."

Obtaining the system was indeed an incredibly lucky thing in his life, but for him, the luckiest thing was actually meeting these several beautiful and charming girls and winning their favor. If there was anything he couldn't miss, it was the hand of the girl in front of him.

Ning Yuan said seriously, "If you want it, I can give you the complete information, including the method of making the medicine that cured Grandpa Gu and the development of the corresponding basic science. But I can't explain how they came about. I don't want to lie to you. But it really is a joke played by God."

"What use would I have for that thing?" Jiang Xihua stared at him for a long time, and after a while, she seemed to think that he was not lying. Compared with his previous nonsense, it was much more sincere. She slowly withdrew her gaze, pursed her lips and said lightly, "I have finished asking my questions. You can leave now."

"Hey, Jiang Manyue, are you serious? You're using me and then discarding me!?" Master Ning glared at him, displeased. "It's not like it's my turn to ask you some questions now."

"Go ahead and ask." Miss Manyue leaned against the door with her arms crossed, looking down at Ning Yuan. However, this perspective did not make Little Manyue look more magnificent; instead, it added a touch of sadness to her appearance.

Have you read the letter I wrote to you?

I refuse to answer.

Master Ning: ? ? ?

"No, Full Moon, you're just trying to renege on your promise... I answered all your questions honestly, and you're just going to brush me off like this?"

“Look back at your answer. How does it relate to the words ‘honest and straightforward’?” Jiang Manyue said calmly. “Besides, I have the right to refuse to answer.”

"Since that's the case, then I won't pretend anymore. You must have already seen it; my cousin-in-law has already told me!"

Jiang Mufeng, who was listening to the gossip downstairs: ? ? ?

"I'm going to fight this bastard to the death!"

"Calm down, calm down." Jiang Chaoyun pressed down on Jiang Mufeng, whose face was filled with despair, and said earnestly, "You must think about the bigger picture. You must not let your personal feelings affect the great cause..."

"Which one?" Jiang Xihua's expression suddenly revealed a murderous intent.

"Is that even a question? Of course, there are two!" Master Ning tried to remain calm as he tried to get information out of her: "Now that it's a full moon, you don't need to pretend anymore."

Jiang Chaoyun: ? ? ?

"I'm going to fight this bastard to the death!"

Jiang Muyu held down the two unlucky victims who had been caught in the crossfire, and with an expression that seemed to enjoy watching the drama unfold, she advised, "Calm down, calm down, don't let your personal feelings affect the situation... Keep watching... Keep watching."

Master Ning didn't expect that his bluff would actually fool Jiang Manyue. Normally, Miss Manyue wouldn't be so easy to fool, but Jiang Mufeng and Jiang Chaoyun had indeed discussed Ning Yuan's letter before, and coupled with the recent spy incident involving Jiang Mufeng, Jiang's trust in her two younger brothers had dropped to rock bottom.

"So what if I've seen it?" Jiang Manyue was furious. Her small hands unconsciously clenched into fists, as if she might beat that scumbag man so badly that he stumbled backward and fell to the ground, just like before.
