Chapter 497



497 nothing matters

jiang che walked towards shi yan and stood in front of her. he didn’t hug her or even touch her. he just looked at her. “miss shi, don’t be so kind in the future.”

shi yan met his gaze and smiled. you’re wrong. I’m not being kind. I just made a deal that wasn’t so cost-effective.

” i don’t know, ” jiang che said helplessly. ” in the future, we’ll have to see if it’s worth it before we make a deal. ”

“Alright,” he said.

After saying this, Shi Yan reached out to hold Jiang Che’s hand. She shook it for a moment before letting it go.

She took a step forward and looked at Dou Chao, who was standing there waiting for her to lecture him.

“Miss Shi Wanwan.”

” don’t be nervous. i don’t intend to investigate who you are and why you are here. ”

dou chao was a little surprised, but when he thought of shi yan’s personality, he felt that it was only natural.

“it’s fine if you want to ask. if you do, i can tell you.”

“no, i won’t.” Shi Yan said with a smile.

“thank you for what you did just now. in the future, if i encounter such a situation again, you don’t need to block me. ”

dou chao was obviously a little embarrassed. he hesitated for a while before saying,”yes.”

He replied with a “yes” in the manner of a subordinate.

shi yan sighed softly in her heart. then she smiled and said to the others, ” “go back. those who didn’t eat well, go back and eat.”

“yan, you’re really something. you’re the only one who can still think about eating.”

jiang rui walked over and held her arm. ” yan, you must take what i said to heart. i’m very happy that you care about me, but i really don’t want to be a bargaining chip for others to threaten you. ” i’m not as good as you, but i’m not bad. if he really makes a move, i might be able to avoid him.”

“Jiang Rui ‘er!”

upon hearing jiang cheng’s voice, jiang rui instantly cowered.

she directly came over to hold shi yan’s arm and talk to her because she did not dare to face her brother for fear of being scolded.

“ge! ge! ge!”

“what are you trying to do with your three-legged cat? That kid from the Gu family is a madman. You’re shouting at a madman, do you not want to live?”

“brother, don’t be angry. look at me. i’m fine.”

A second ago, she was still holding Shi Yan’s arm and talking, but the next second, she let go of Shi Yan and went to hold Jiang Cheng’s arm to coax him.

shi yan smiled lightly and was about to call jiang che when she met su mu’s round eyes.

Oh, she was angry.

“cousin.”

call me younger cousin, don’t call me that. I’m your younger brother, not your older brother!

“it’s a fact that you’re older than me by a few years.” shi yan said with a smile.

f * ck you! su mu clutched his chest in anger.

In less than two seconds, su mu regained his composure and said seriously, ” “Why didn’t you tell me that you would be in trouble? Do you think I’m useless and can’t help you?”

“no, you’re thinking too much. i didn’t even tell fifth lord jiang.”

“from what you’re saying, you’re still very proud?” Jiang che replied.

“you’re still talking about me? didn’t you also secretly make arrangements without telling me?”

jiang che stopped talking.

he didn’t mention it to her because he didn’t want to disturb her. In this matter, he was just as unreasonable as she was.

all of you noticed the problem vigilantly and even made arrangements. I’m the stupidest and most useless one. I didn’t even notice the enemy when they were right in front of me, and I even happily sat down and ate with them!

In fact, su mu felt more guilty than angry.

Not only did he fail to help, but he also almost became a burden.

Not to mention comparing her to Jiang che, she was even comparing her to Yingying.

He looked at Dou Chao.

even compared to the others, he was still lacking.

“I wasn’t sure if something would happen at first. I just sent a message to Tong Yan and asked her to keep an eye on him. If something happened, I asked her to deal with it. Besides sending a message to remind Tong Yan, I didn’t do anything else. It’s obvious that this is not a big deal. Cousin, don’t think too much about it. ”

“the gun’s pointed at his head, and it’s not a big deal? that gu yu is a madman. isn’t it a big deal for a madman like him to come looking for trouble?”

“just now, i almost died, i almost died.”

“Alright, su mu, isn’t everything fine now? Why are you angry with Yan? yan didn’t tell you because she knew she could solve it herself. we’re here to have fun, so don’t affect everyone’s mood.”

Jing Hailan smiled apologetically at Shi Yan.

shi yan smiled back at her, then blinked at jiang che.

It was true. To her, this was not a big deal. it’s not like it can’t be solved, what’s the big deal? wasn’t jiang che not angry? why was su mu so angry?

jiang che understood the look in her eyes and chuckled. he walked over and rubbed the top of her head, saying in a low voice, ” “miss shi, not everyone understands you as i do. i believe that you have the ability to protect yourself, so i’m not angry. other people don’t know what you’re capable of.”

in fact, he was not angry because he had secretly made arrangements. if he didn’t know or do anything, he would be even angrier than su mu.

but Ms. Shi, you can’t always think that it’s not a big deal. If I didn’t react quickly just now, you would have been on the plane to the Gu family by now.

he won’t do anything to me. I’ll just go. You’ll find a way to get me back, won’t you? ”

“That’s true, but miss Shi, I’ll be worried.”

I know you’re not afraid of anything, but you have to think for me and the others. Jiang Rui almost lost her life ten minutes ago.

shi yan wanted to say that she would not let anything happen to jiang rui in front of her. she was not far away from jiang rui and could stop her. But when she met Jiang Che’s gaze, she swallowed her words.

forget it, i’d better not say it. after all, i wasn’t 100% sure that jiang rui would be fine.

Besides, she was not fearless.

after all, she had lived alone for too long and was used to nothing. nothing was a big deal to her.

this had to be changed.

“I won’t do this next time.”

jiang che held her hand. ” forget it if you’re really a coward. let’s go and pack up. didn’t you say that you still have to pick herbs? ”

when they walked back, liu qi and xu yue ran to ren kexin’s side.

“Kexin, is Yingluo alright now?” Xu Yue’s face was still a little pale. It was clear that she had been greatly frightened by the battle just now.

“i’m fine now.”

“then, then what was the situation just now? who is student shi and who is the person who is causing trouble for her?”

without waiting for ren kexin’s reply, xu yue quickly added, ” ” forget it, forget it. it’s better if you don’t tell me. knowing more might not be a good thing for me. ”

“are we going to continue playing here, yingying?”

let’s pack up and go back to the hotel. We’ll stay here for a while and leave early in the night. Ren Kexin said.

xu yue hurriedly nodded. she was not in the mood to play anyway.

” then, dou zhao! ” xu yue looked in the direction of dou zhao.

they had been traveling together for a few days, and she had long noticed that ren kexin was interested in dou zhao.

ren kexin followed her line of sight and also saw dou chao.

“I’m not sure. We’ll talk about it after the new year.”

he didn’t care about dou chao anymore and left.

After returning to the small farmyard at night and having dinner, Jiang che received a call from the seventh master of the Gu family, Gu Zi.

su mu also received a call from gu yi.

Shi Yan didn’t hear or ask what Jiang che and Gu Zi talked about, so she didn’t know. but she was there when su mu received gu yi’s call. She clearly saw su MU’s face change after Gu Yi’s phone call. The other party probably only said one sentence.

He suddenly realized the enmity between the Yu and Gu families.

It was no wonder that su mu, who had always been quick to calm down when he was angry, was still silent. She had thought that su mu was still angry with her.
