Chapter 23 - Gossip Queen (Complete) (2/2)
The passenger beside her suddenly got up. Ming Shu turned back to see Jiang Xun switching seats with that person. He bent down to put white earmuffs on her ears, and sat down next to her with tight lips. Then he looked ahead after fastening his seatbelt.
He didn’t say any words from beginning to end.
Ming Shu touched the fluffy earmuffs, pushed one side off, and then bent toward Jiang Xun. “Brother, tell me, which part of me do you like?”
I’ll change, okay?
“I don’t know.” Jiang Xun sat straight and answered in a cold voice, “Like is like.”
Ming Shu helplessly covered her ears, and after a while she took off the earmuffs again. “Brother, did you read the novel The Last Candy ?”
Jiang Xun glanced at her sidelong, seeming like he wanted to look at Ming Shu, but quickly he moved his gaze away again. “No.”
“In the novel, there was a secondary character just like you. He forcibly wanted to get a girl that didn’t like him. Do you know what happened in the end?”
“…”
“In the end he pushed her to her death, and for the rest of his life they couldn’t see each other.”
Jiang Xun’s eyes flashed. He said firmly, “I will never do that.”
“…” Unbelievable .
Pulling the earmuffs back on, Ming Shu covered her entire head with them. Talking to this illiberal psychopath just didn’t make any sense.
As Ming Shu was about to fall asleep, the plane suddenly began to shake, making her drowsiness disappear at once. Several low cries came from the passengers and the broadcast also sounded at the same time, saying the plane had encountered turbulence.
It’s normal for a plane to encounter turbulence, but now the shaking was getting fiercer and fiercer, which was not normal at all.
“Brother, you wouldn’t be so desperate as to bury all the people on this plane together with me?” Ming Shu put down her earmuffs, looking to Jiang Xun.
Jiang Xun frowned. “Nonsense, I will never hurt you.”
“Why is the plane falling!”
“Ahhhh!”
Passengers in the back row screamed. The plane was falling very fast, like a toy suddenly thrown into the air by someone.
The plane was falling faster and faster and the whole cabin was drowned with screams.
Ming Shu grabbed the chair’s armrest, her expression hardly changing.
I haven’t eaten all over this world, and now I’m going to die…
Jiang Xun suddenly bent down to hug Ming Shu. “Niannian, I like you.”
That was the last sentence Ming Shu heard. When she woke up, she was standing in a room made of clouds.
This was where the system drew her into the world before.
She was back?
Wasn’t she told that she could use the Host’s body until her death?
[Jiang Nian’s life lasts right to that day in the original plot.]
“…” Liar !
A screen fashioned from a white cloud floated in front of Ming Shu, several lines on it.
Name: Ming Shu
Hatred Points: 3000
Extension Task: Completed
Very brief information. Compared to other system novels, this was the most simple she’d ever read.
Ming Shu struck her hands through the cloud-screen and the cloud dispersed immediately. But a moment later it reappeared again next to her.
Evil technology!
“Was Jiang Xun killed?” Ming Shu suddenly asked.
[No.] The Harmony System answered. [But his legs broke, so he had to spend the rest of his life sitting in a wheelchair.]
“Oh.” Ming Shu seemingly didn’t care about Jiang Xun at all. “What do we have to eat in the next world?”
