Chapter 15: Abandoned, Good Luck
Jiang Shu was squatting on the side of the road thinking about life.
Just now, after she got into the car of her fourth brother Jiang Linchen, she found out not long after that he asked his agent Zhang Jin to sit in the passenger seat and let him drive himself.
However, after the car came into his hands, the speed became faster and faster, and the car drove to more and more remote areas until it reached the wilderness in the suburbs.
When she realized something was wrong and wanted to get off the car, Jiang Linchen just said that he was going to a place to get something and then went to the hospital.
It was getting dark. He stopped at a place with lush wild flowers, turned around and smiled gently at her, his voice was a little doting: "Xiao Shu'er, get out of the car and pick some flowers. Then apologize to Yaoyao and give the flowers to her. This matter will be over, okay?"
Little Shu'er?
This was the name she was called many years ago. How long has it been since she heard it?
Before my mind could process what was happening, my body unconsciously opened the car door and walked out.
There was a "clang" sound!
The car door closed quickly. Jiang Shu, who had just reached out to pick a bunch of wild flowers and held them in his arms, was dazed when the exhaust gas from the car sprayed all over his head and face.
She stood there blankly, and the wild flowers in her hand fell to the ground.
There was no longer a single car passing on the quiet little road.
She only had one day to live.
She had been planning to go to the bar tonight to earn points, but now her brother had thrown her into this deserted suburb. Thinking about the rumored alien species, maybe... she wouldn't survive this night.
[Host, the good luck potion can bring 100% good luck! ]
Jiang Shu squatted on the ground, laughing at his own naivety. He thought he was really picking some flowers to apologize to Jiang Yaoyao, but he was fooled by Jiang Linchen.
She was still thinking about using the truth potion to make Jiang Yaoyao tell the truth and let them see Jiang Yaoyao's true face. But now it seems that there is no need for that.
She doesn't want this brother anymore.
I took a look at the luck potion recommended by the system. It costs 500 points and only lasts for one hour. It’s so expensive. What can one hour of good luck do?
[Host, you can buy two bottles! ]
Jiang Shu: “…”
It was a rotten system. She only had a little over a thousand points in total, which would be basically gone after she bought it. She would only have one day left to live after returning, and she had to complete tasks non-stop. Jiang Shu, who hated socializing in the first place, didn't want to live under the enslavement of the system forever.
She just gave up and just lay there among the wild flowers, gazing at the deep and beautiful sky with twinkling stars.
But she suddenly remembered what Jiang Linchen said, that if she wanted to be the brightest star, she felt a little disgusted when looking at the stars now.
Jiang Shu closed his eyes, stood up again, took out his cell phone and started making a call.
She didn't want to let that group of people have an easy time, especially Jiang Yaoyao who had bullied her for so many years and slandered her so many times. She would skin her alive before she died!
"My classmate Jiang Shu, we agreed to go out and party tonight, but where are you?"
As soon as the call was connected, Shen Nian's chattering complaints were heard.
"What did the teacher say?"
"Just say that something happened at home and you went back to deal with it."
"Oh, I don't know where I am right now. Can you pick me up based on my phone location? We can still have fun."
If two people are friends, they can directly send their real-time locations.
"Okay, wait for me!"
Shen Nian agreed readily without asking any questions and said that he would find someone to pick her up immediately.
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Shu felt fortunate for the first time that he still had such a good friend.
While waiting, she seemed to hear a strange sound coming from the half-meter-high grass in the distance. [Host, hurry up and buy a good luck potion, an alien species has appeared! ]
Most alien species only appear at night, and there are patrols in towns. The suburbs are somewhat dangerous, and most people will not come here.
When it's dark, there are very few vehicles passing by.
She was also stupid and listened to Jiang Linchen's nonsense.
Why didn't he go to a flower shop to apologize with flowers? Why did he have to come to the wilderness? But given the situation at that time, he would have been thrown out of the car even if he didn't want to.
He would not have failed to expect this situation, he really wanted her to die!
Jiang Shu didn't hesitate any longer. She bought a bottle of good luck potion and used it on herself.
in the hospital.
Manager Zhang Jin couldn't help but say, "Brother Chen abandoned Miss Jiang in the suburbs. How about I go and bring her back?"
"What? It's already dark now. You threw her out in the suburbs. Aren't you afraid that the aliens will eat her?"
Jiang Zimo stood up suddenly. When he thought that Jiang Shu might die, his hand holding the storybook began to tremble unconsciously.
"What are you afraid of? There are very few alien species in Jiang City. Didn't they say that this area has been cleared a long time ago?"
Seeing Jiang Zimo making such a fuss, Jiang Linchen said indifferently, "I just wanted to scare her. Who told her to say those unrepentant words in school? Not only did she cause Yaoyao to be hospitalized, she also cursed Yaoyao to death. It's simply unreasonable!"
Manager Zhang Jin said anxiously: "That's just to appease ordinary people. Didn't the news also say not to stay in the suburbs casually? It means it's still dangerous."
If something happens, not only will I lose my job, but I may also be sued. He is my brother and has a wealthy family as his backer. The final punishment will definitely be neither light nor severe, and there is a high probability that I will become a scapegoat.
This is also the reason why Zhang Jin was so panicked.
"What are you afraid of? She's not a fool. Just make a phone call and ask someone to pick her up."
It is generally assumed that orders from the suburbs are not accepted, so you cannot get a taxi.
Jiang Linchen had no remorse at all, but he felt a little empty inside, as if there was something he could no longer hold on to.
"Why not let driver Lao Zhang pick her up? Fourth brother, you are too impulsive. If something happens to Sister Jiang Shu, Dad, Mom, and Grandpa will definitely blame you."
Jiang Yaoyao sat up from the bed, and as if that wasn't enough, she pretended to get out of bed, "I'll go with you, too. If anything happens to my sister, I'll be responsible too."
"Don't move, the doctor said you need to rest!"
Hearing this, Jiang Zimo immediately pushed the person down and said, "Let me go. I'll go and bring her back to apologize to you. Even if something happens to her, it has nothing to do with Yaoyao."
"Forget it, I'll go, you just stay here and take care of Yaoyao."
Jiang Linchen scratched his hair in annoyance. After realizing what he had done, he immediately took out a mirror from his pocket and straightened his hair.
"I hope that damn girl will behave better in the future."
He murmured something and walked out at a quickened pace.
The agent Zhang Jin followed closely behind, unable to stop complaining in his heart. The girl on the hospital bed was obviously their adopted sister, she looked ordinary and her voice smelled like tea, yet they were pampering her so much.
The girl in school, who was obviously their biological sister, was so pretty and delicate, and also a girl with excellent grades. She looked so well-behaved, but she was abandoned by them.
He had a hunch that this group of people would regret it later.
