Chapter 19: Chapter 19

Unrepentant

When Wen Nuan heard Jiang Ling’er’s words, she hesitated for a moment and said warmly, “Ling’er, your brother is still as stubborn as ever?” n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

At the mention of Jiang Jun, Jiang Ling’er laughed mockingly. Jiang Jun’s mind was full of Bai Xue.

When the original host of this body died, Jiang Jun was not sad about his sister’s death. The first thing he did was to call Bai Xue. How could a person like Jiang Jun stand on the same side as Jiang Ling’er?

Seeing Jiang Ling’er in deep thought, Wen Nuan thought that her words had made Jiang Ling’er angry.

“Ling’er, I’m very sorry to have made you unhappy,” Wen Nuan said hurriedly.

After all, no one would be happy to have a brother like Jiang Jun.

Jiang Ling’er came back to her senses. Fortunately, she had transmigrated and did not have any kinship with Jiang Jun. If it were the original host of the body, she might have felt a little sad.

Jiang Ling’er shook her head and said, “I’m not unhappy. Jiang Jun, huh… even if Bai Xue fed him poison, Jiang Jun would eat it without hesitation. Do you believe me?”

When Wen Nuan heard this, she frowned and said warmly, “Tsk tsk… That infatuated huh?”

Wen Nuan knew that Jiang Jun liked Bai Xue and didn’t have a good relationship with Jiang Ling’er, but she didn’t expect that he was so crazy over Bai Xue.

Jiang Ling’er said indifferently, “That’s right, and I was too reserved.”

Wen Nuan sighed. Jiang Ling’er was really unlucky to have such a brother. Wen Nuan said, “Ling’er, if you face any difficulties, tell me. It won’t be a problem to destroy Li Yan’s small company.”

Jiang Ling’er shook her head and said, “Little Nuan, the Wen Family has such a good reputation, and Li Yan is also quite famous within the industry. No matter what, Li Yan has the Li Family backing him. If we make an obvious move, it will be an outright wage of war with the Li Family. The Wen Family’s reputation will be damaged. It’s not worth it. We don’t need to do that.”

Wen Nuan frowned and said, “Why do you sound like my brother?”

Jiang Ling’er didn’t say anything and just smiled.

Wen Nuan glared at Jiang Ling’er and said, “You’re cheeky you know that. Besides, you guys are making a mountain out of a molehill.”

Jiang Ling ‘er wanted to explain, but before she could, she heard Bai Xue’s anxious voice.

“Mr. Li, wait a minute. Can you give me another chance regarding the role?” Bai Xue said.

Jiang Ling ‘er and Wen Nuan looked at each other and then at Bai Xue.

There were two bodyguards standing in front of Bai Xue, while Bai Xue looked at Li Yu pleadingly.

Jiang Ling’er smiled playfully. Bai Xue’s pitiful look would probably soften Li Yu’s heart in two to three minutes.

Wen Nuan said in surprise, “Why are these two here? Ling’er, could it be that the Li family’s uncle and nephew are fighting over the same woman?”

Jiang Ling’er said, “I don’t know. Look at Bai Xue.”

In most novels, it was common for the uncle and nephew to fight over the female lead, but this novel did not seem to have such a plot.

Wen Nuan frowned. “Li Yu is most probably here to see my second brother. Why the heck in Bai Xue here too?”

Jiang Ling’er glanced at Bai Xue and said, “Who knows?.”

Wen Nuan thought for a moment and said, “Second Brother needs to reorganize his place. Seems like any Tom, Dick and Harry can enter his place these days.”

Jiang Ling’er remained silent and drank her coffee leisurely.

…

Li Yu’s face was completely expressionless as he thought to himself, ‘I don’t want a falling out with Li Yan, but this woman of his is bat-shit crazy. Does she really think I’m as blind as Li Yan?’

Just as Li Yu was about to reject Bai Xue, he suddenly saw Jiang Ling’er and Wen Nuan some distance away. After pondering for a moment, Li Yu walked toward them.

Seeing Li Yu walking over, Jiang Ling’er and Wen Nuan looked at each other with confusion. Did Li Yu come over to say hello? However, the two of them weren’t close to Li Yu.

Li Yu walked up to the two of them and said, “Hello. You two young ladies seem to be in a good mood.”

Jiang Ling’er and Wen Nuan stood up. Wen Nuan extended her hand and said politely, “Hello, Mr. Li.”

Li Yu nodded and gently shook hands with Wen Nuan. Then, he looked at Jiang Ling’er. Li Yu stretched out his hand and said with a smile, “Miss Jiang, we meet again.”

Jiang Ling’er smiled and extended her hand politely. She said, “Good morning, Mr. Li.”

Li Yu frowned and said, “Are you not going to invite me to sit down and have coffee with you?”

Jiang Ling’er said calmly, “Mr. Li, this is the Wen Corporation. We are all guests. It’s not good for the guests to overshadow the host.”

Li Yu smiled. Who said that Jiang Ling’er had no manners?

Wen Nuan smiled and said, “My apologies, Mr. Li, please have a seat. Ms. Wang, bring us another cup of coffee.”
