Chapter 120: Chapter 120: The Pursued Jiang Yan
Jiang Yan’s gloomy mood vanished in an instant after receiving Yang Jian’s call, and she immediately felt a surge of joy.
Even though she knew very well that Yang Jian was a ghost controller and that being with him was dangerous,
in their time spent together before, she had felt that a ghost controller wasn’t that different from the average person.
Moreover, Yang Jian was far superior to other men, young, capable, and rich… with a handsome appearance too.
Even though his thought process could be quite bizarre at times, what did that matter?
Humming a tune,
Jiang Yan began to groom herself carefully, deliberately choosing a youthful hairstyle, and then slipped into a newly purchased dress with a bit of a cartoonish flair.
The dress just covered her knees, revealing a pair of long, white, and slender legs.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Jiang Yan struck a V-sign with her fingers, “Perfect.”
“Now Yang Jian won’t call me ‘big sister’ anymore. If I step out, I can look younger than those seventeen- or eighteen-year-old girls. When we meet, I will definitely leave him head over heels.”
She was quite proud of herself; with her figure, anything she wore looked stunning.
No matter what,
she was determined to latch onto Yang Jian, the ‘big thigh.’
“Oh, right, the car keys.”
Jiang Yan grabbed her car keys, ready to head out.
But just as she was leaving, she saw a young man in a suit and fashionable attire standing outside her door, holding a rose in his hand and smilingly saying, “Xiao Yan, we really do have a telepathic connection. I’ve just arrived at your doorstep to knock, and you already knew to open the door for me. I must say, you look absolutely stunning today, captivating.”
“This flower is for you, though it pales in comparison to your beauty.”
The sight of this man immediately soured Jiang Yan’s previously good mood. She said, “Qian Feng, what are you doing? Please stop bothering me, alright? I’ve already told you I have a boyfriend, and pursuing me like this is pointless.”
“Xiao Yan, don’t say that. I’m willing to compete fairly with your boyfriend. I believe that with the sincerity of my feelings, I won’t lose to him,” Qian Feng said.
“Out of respect for our college friendship, I advise you to leave quickly and stay away from me. If Yang Jian finds out you’re pestering me here, I can’t guarantee what he might do,” Jiang Yan pleaded somewhat.
She regretted attending that class reunion a few days ago.
Because of her vanity, she wanted to show off at the reunion and drove the Mercedes that Yang Jian had left for her. While she did indeed turn heads and drew envy from her classmates, Qian Feng had since been shamelessly pursuing her.
Heh.
As if I’m blind. It’s my money you’re after, isn’t it? If you win me over, does it mean you can avoid thirty years of hard work?
If Jiang Yan couldn’t see through this, she didn’t deserve to be an accountant.
But outright rejections, both explicit and implicit, still proved futile.
“Xiao Yan, your words put me at ease. If your boyfriend is someone who only resorts to violence, then he isn’t worth your affection,” Qian Feng earnestly continued, “And I’m even more concerned about entrusting your future to a thug who knows nothing but fighting. You deserve a man who can provide you with stability and a sense of security.”
“Are you blind? Yang Jian is the one who can give me stability and a sense of security,”
Jiang Yan was agitated inside, but she didn’t express it out loud.
That would affect her image.
Jiang Yan maintained her aloof demeanor, “There’s no need for any more words. I’m not going to accept you. I need to leave now, so please go back.”
“Don’t worry, Xiao Yan. Just yesterday, I rented the apartment opposite yours; now we can see each other every day,” Qian Feng pointed out, indicating the open door of the apartment nearby.
Jiang Yan widened her eyes in shock, “Are you a stalker or something? Renting right across from my place?”
“I find even your annoyed expression quite charming,” Qian Feng said with a smile.
“…”
Jiang Yan felt like she was on the verge of breaking down, “Do whatever you want, I’m leaving.”
“Where are you going? I’ll drive you,” he offered.
“I have my own car, I don’t need a ride,” Jiang Yan snapped, her high heels making her walk unsteady, almost causing her to twist her ankle.
A moment later.
As Jiang Yan drove Yang Jian’s Mercedes on the road, intending to calm her mood before seeing him and pushing the recent encounter with Qian Feng to the back of her mind,
“Beep, beep-beep.”
While she waited at a red light, a car horn sounded from behind. Qian Feng leaned out of the driver’s side and shouted, “Xiao Yan, I like you, be my girlfriend, okay?”
The noise was very loud.
Passersby nearby all looked over.
Jiang Yan, who was in the car ahead, was stunned at first, not expecting Qian Feng to actually chase after her; hearing his words, she felt both angry and anxious. She really didn’t know what to do with this person; they had not contacted each other for almost two years after graduation, and they only had an average relationship while at school. Now they meet, and he’s this passionate?
What nonsense.
There was no other way.
It was time for the trump card.
Jiang Yan also stuck her head out and shouted, “Give it up, I have a boyfriend now, and I’m carrying his child.”
“What the hell, what’s happening?”
Passersby and people in nearby cars all widened their eyes at this moment.
This handsome young man had declared his love one moment and suffered a heavy blow the next.
It was a total tragedy.
Let’s have a three-minute silence for this brother.
Qian Feng froze when he heard these words too. He had imagined all kinds of rejections from Jiang Yan, even her ignoring him outright, but he had not expected her to say something like this.
But his intuition told him that this pregnancy had to be fake, a lie to deceive him,
How could such a slim figure be pregnant?
“I don’t care, give birth to it, and I’ll take care of it. To love you is to accept everything about you,” Qian Feng shouted loudly.
“Clap clap clap~!”
At that moment, it was as if bystanders were applauding.
It must have taken a lot of courage to say something like that.
“This young man has moved me, reminiscent of that time when another guy grabbed my steering wheel and gunned it over one-eighty, reaching the destination within a minute… All warriors indeed.”
In a taxi nearby, a middle-aged driver touched the corner of his eye, feeling somewhat moist.
Qian Feng felt everyone’s gaze focused on him, but he was not timid; he still looked sincerely at Jiang Yan.
Jiang Yan started to panic.
She hadn’t expected that even after saying such a thing, Qian Feng still wouldn’t give up.
“Stay calm, stay calm, mustn’t let him succeed, must thoroughly reject him. Otherwise, how am I going to explain this to Yang Jian?” Jiang Yan bit her lip, starting to think of a countermeasure.
If Yang Jian knew she was earning his money, driving his car, and still looking for another man outside, he might strangle her then and there.
After all, he’s the kind of tough guy who dares to deal with fierce ghosts.
“Give it up, you’re not fit to raise his child,” Jiang Yan yelled again.
“Pff~!”
The onlookers who were drinking water spat out a mouthful.
That was just too harsh.
Those words were like kicking someone down to the ground and then spitting on them.
It was incredibly humiliating.
No normal man could tolerate such an insult; it seemed like the young man behind was about to explode.
It appeared that Qian Feng had already thought of a countermeasure; he shouted, “No worries, I can provide child support…”
Upon hearing this, a wave of booing erupted from nearby.
But the taxi driver beside could not hold back anymore; he stepped on the gas pedal, turned the wheel, and crashed into Qian Feng’s car.
Qian Feng was jolted and became a bit dazed.
The taxi driver cursed loudly, “Go to hell; I can’t watch this anymore. Young and doing anything but good, especially being a bootlicker. Don’t let me see your car again, or else every time I see it, I’ll tail you until you question your life.”
“Well hit.”
A few drivers waiting for the red light nearly cheered.
This taxi driver turned out to be a man of strong feelings.
Just then the light turned green.
Jiang Yan seized the moment he was hit to step on the gas and sped away.
