Chapter 95: 095 Contact List Friends

"Rui Rui, where is Jiang Chen?"

Seeing her daughter return alone, Xue Mingqin asked in surprise.

"I told him to go back first."

"Gone back? You child, he hasn’t even eaten yet, quickly call him back."

Xue Mingqin urged.

"Mom, he’s probably already on the subway by now."

Li Shuru smiled bitterly. She hadn’t expected her mother to like Jiang Chen so much when she concocted the plan to pretend to be lovers with him.

Could it be true, the old saying that the more a mother-in-law sees her son-in-law, the more she likes him?

What would her mother’s reaction be if she discovered that she and Jiang Chen were only pretending to fool her?

Li Shuru didn’t want to think about it. Right now, her father’s life was hanging in the balance on the hospital bed, and these concerns would have to be addressed later.

"Rui Rui, has there been any progress with Zhen Lun?"

The death of the little girl Ni Ni today had given Xue Mingqin a considerable shock. The despair the couple showed was unbearable for her to see.

It was hard for her not to worry that the same tragedy might befall her own family.

"Mom, you know these things take time, there are many procedures involved."

Li Shuru skirted around the major issues, not mentioning a word about He Guangwen’s demand for a higher price.

Talking about this with her mother served no purpose, except to add unnecessary worry.

"If you can, try to hurry them along, I’m worried..."

Xue Mingqin couldn’t help but glance toward the hospital bed.

"Mom, don’t worry, I know."

After speaking with her mother for a while, Li Shuru went out to buy dinner. Stepping out of the hospital, she couldn’t help but think of Jiang Chen, whom she had almost chased away.

When her father collapsed, she appeared strong, but inside she was really panicked and helpless. It was Jiang Chen who had been with her through the hardest times.

With this in mind, Li Shuru took out her phone and without being shy, she sent a WeChat message after she had pushed him away.

"Have you arrived?"

"Two more stops."

The reply came quickly, as if there were no hard feelings.

"Remember to eat when you get back to school."

With Li Shuru’s personality, an apology was, of course, out of the question, but a simple message like this was already a certain kind of attitude.

"I’m not a child, would I starve myself?"

Seeing the text pop up on the screen, the corners of Li Shuru’s mouth lifted slightly.

It couldn’t be denied that Jiang Chen had done her great favors, yet this young man had never hung this over her head, which made their interactions pressure-free, easy, and comfortable for Li Shuru.

"Feeling better?"

Ding-dong.

The WeChat notification sounded again.

"What?"

Li Shuru was somewhat puzzled.

"Are you less angry now?"

Jiang Chen asked.

It seems he had figured something out while on the subway.

The love letter incident was probably secondary, the main issue that led to Li Shuru’s unusual behavior was probably his receiving Zhen Lun’s call about the price hike, and then staying silent and feigning ignorance.

Li Shuru might indeed refuse to accept his money again, but for a girl, whether she wants it or not is one thing; whether you’re willing to give it or not is another.

"I’m not angry."

Li Shuru replied quickly. It was less about being stubborn and more about a hint of coquettishness.

If Jiang Chen was smart at this moment and flattered her a bit, this whole thing would probably blow over, but the man seemed to have changed from a lovesick puppy to a man of steel, taking her word at face value when she said she wasn’t angry.

"If you’re not mad, that’s good, I’m getting off the subway now, we’ll talk later."

Li Shuru paused, clutching her phone. With her personality, she couldn’t help grinding her silver teeth, feeling a strong urge to block this guy.

Zheng Jingjing’s method, it seems, isn’t that effective after all.

Or was there something wrong with the way she used it?

Li Shuru frowned slightly, thinking maybe she shouldn’t have shown the chat history, and indeed, her conversations with Coldriver Lone Shadow were quite insipid.

Had she known, she should have engaged in flirtier chat.

Feeling somewhat stifled, Li Shuru walked to the restaurant entrance. She had already brought up the chat interface with Coldriver Lone Shadow in her phone, and now that it had lost its value, she intended to delete the record. But accidentally, she tapped on the avatar and entered Coldriver Lone Shadow’s personal page.

She had deliberately checked Coldriver Lone Shadow’s profile the first time he initiated a hundred years of guardianship, and it was clean, devoid of any useful information. Just as Li Shuru was about to exit, a line of yellow text, like a magnet, instantly drew her attention.

[Contacts Friend]

Her steps halted, and she froze on the spot.

Once she was sure her eyes weren’t deceiving her, Li Shuru’s gaze shook violently, her face filled with disbelief.

Contacts Friend.

This line made one thing crystal clear.

This Coldriver Lone Shadow was in her phone’s contact list!

In other words.

This incredibly mysterious benefactor who had splurged more than ten million on her was someone she knew in real life!

Her heartbeat uncontrollably accelerated; Li Shuru hastily opened her phone’s contacts list and began reviewing each number.

She didn’t have many stored contacts, just over a hundred. Excluding family relatives and those she had met at bars and then forgotten to delete, the ones she truly kept in contact with, those she could call friends, were only about thirty or forty.

But after checking these thirty or forty people, Li Shuru found none with such profound strength.

Yet, the system’s marking from the Starry Sky platform couldn’t be lying.

If it identified Coldriver Lone Shadow as a contact friend, then he must be someone she knew in real life!

I’ve seen you many times.

I am a college student.

I’m in my senior year.

Memories began to replay in her mind.

These were all things that Coldriver Lone Shadow had once told her, but she had never really thought deeply about them at the time.

But now, reconsidering them...

Li Shuru’s pupils constricted sharply, as a familiar and clean face shockingly flashed before her eyes.

Jiang Chen!

Among her friends, only Jiang Chen’s family background was still utterly unknown to her.

All the characteristics previously stated by Coldriver Lone Shadow matched those of Jiang Chen!

The most crucial point was.

Just yesterday, Liang Zhenlun had called, suddenly informing He Guangwen to raise the price by a million, and then Coldriver Lone Shadow gifted her two million That, after a fifty-fifty split with the platform, would allow her to have exactly one million.

Could the world be so coincidental?

Could Coldriver Lone Shadow be some kind of clairvoyant?

Just yesterday, she found it strange that he seemed to know she was in trouble.

Now, the truth is finally clear!

Jiang Chen.

It must be him!

Li Shuru took a deep breath. She was already at the entrance of the restaurant, but she didn’t go in; instead, she called her mother to say she had something urgent to attend to at school and hurried back to the hospital to get her car.

"Whoom!"

Soon after, the Parmela, like a white streak of lighting, burst out of the hospital gates.
