Obsessive Tycoon and His Swan Girl
Chapter 137 - 137 137 Is There a Dog Outside

Chapter 137: Chapter 137: Is There a Dog Outside? Chapter 137: Chapter 137: Is There a Dog Outside? Jiang Fanyue did not want to put in extra effort, so she did not give it much thought and said, “It’s good that you know. I’m leaving first.”

After she finished speaking, she turned around without hesitation and left without looking back.

This place filled with strange odors was truly unbearable for her to stay even a second longer.

After getting into the car, she took a bottle of mineral water, poured it out, and washed her hands thoroughly, as if afraid of being contaminated by something.

“Miss, your phone has been ringing,” the driver reminded her.

It was only then that Jiang Fanyue remembered she had been in such a hurry that she hadn’t brought her phone with her.

After washing her hands, she picked up the phone and saw that it was Jian Xiliang who had called.

She eagerly redialed and waited, her mood somewhat apprehensive.

Finally, Jian Xiliang answered, and Jiang Fanyue immediately greeted him, “Great-uncle, I’m sorry, I was doing my homework just now and didn’t see the phone.”

“I wanted to let you know that Xu Jin’s team will not pursue the matter with you any longer,” Jian Xiliang had arranged for someone to talk to Xu Jin’s agent.

It was, after all, a minor issue easily handled.

Jiang Fanyue was very grateful, “Thank you so much, great-uncle. I’m lucky to have you. Otherwise, I really wouldn’t know what to do.”

Jian Xiliang was accustomed to such praise and it did not mean much to him.

However, Jiang Fanyue’s respectful attitude still made him quite pleased, “If there’s anything in the future, come to me.”

“Okay, great-uncle!” Jiang Fanyue immediately responded.

After hanging up the phone, she felt a surge of excitement and was glad that she had firmly decided to stay with the Jiang Family.

Regardless of the current state of the family’s affairs, just the help that Jian Xiliang could provide was already of great importance, something that money couldn’t measure.

…

After closing the door, Jiang Yaowang couldn’t hide his disappointment.

“Dad, let it go. Everyone has their own aspirations, and no one likes fruit that’s been twisted off the vine,” Jiang Xiruo had been in the room just now, didn’t see Jiang Fanyue, but heard her voice and already felt Jiang Fanyue’s rejection of the family.

Why bother affecting her wonderful life as a wealthy young lady?

“It’s just that in the end, she is Xiaozhe’s sister. But you’re right; there’s really no need,” he said.

Jiang Xiruo sighed, “Seeing her like this, Xiaozhe must have suffered a lot in the Jiang Family in the past.”

“Xiaozhe’s ability to suffer?” Even though Jiang Yaowang couldn’t specifically state what Jiang Zhe’s talents were, Xia Enci mentioned Xiaozhe every weekend when she came home, saying a lot about Jiang Zhe’s matters.

Jiang Yaowang gradually felt reassured, knowing that Jiang Zhe’s ability to protect himself wouldn’t be weak.

Jiang Xiruo was reminded by his words and laughed, “Look at me, getting all confused.”

…

News of Jiang Zhe, the child adopted by the Jiang Family who was now about to leave, spread quickly throughout the entire school.

It was somewhat beneficial to Jiang Fanyue’s reputation, but it did not affect Jiang Zhe at all.

Wherever she went, there were people wanting to gossip, but upon seeing her figure, they would unconsciously swallow their words.

This was especially true in the basketball team, with Song Xingyu in charge, not allowing any idle talk.

Qin Jingchen gave Jiang Zhe a message, “The matter with Wu Yingze has been dealt with.”

Jiang Zhe did not expect it to be so quick; even going through procedures would take some time, wouldn’t it?

But then, considering that it was Qin Jingchen who handled it, it wasn’t surprising after all.

“How many years?” Jiang Zhe asked.

“Ten years.”

Jiang Zhe thought it was about right. Such a person should indeed spend some time refining their character under a regulated legal system.

Otherwise, if people keep driving into others or using steel pipes to cause injury, what would the others do if they encounter him?

Thinking back on when he only got his arm and a rib broken, Jiang Zhe felt like that was somewhat of a loss.

Luckily, Qin Jingchen helped her make up for it.

“Wu Yingze was sentenced,” Jiang Zhe put away the phone and said to Xia Enci and Xiao Meng.

“How many years?” The two of them were very concerned about this.

“Ten years.”

Xia Enci clapped her hands together, “That’s a good sentence! Every time Xiao Meng had to apply medicine, I regretted so much that I wasn’t there when Wu Yingze was troubling you!”

She flexed her bicep, “If I were there, he would have been knocked out, teeth flying everywhere!”

“I didn’t know he was the one who hurt Xiao Meng at the time.” If Jiang Zhe had known, Wu Yingze wouldn’t have gotten away with just those injuries.

Xia Enci still felt unsatisfied, “I want to rush over and beat him up even now!”

Xiao Meng said with a smile, “It’s alright, the law has dealt him justice for us. My leg injury is almost healed now.”

“It’s lucky that it’s the case, or else Wu Yingze would have to die!” Xia Enci slammed her hands on the table, scattering everything all around.

“Big sis, could you please hit your own table?” Song Xinyu looked at the mess on his desk with a helpless expression.

“Why, can’t I, the mighty Barbie, smack whoever I want?” Xia Enci made another slap on the table, which luckily didn’t mess anything else up this time.

Jiang Zhe picked up her backpack and said, “I’m going out for a bit.”

She walked out and answered the phone.

Yang Feiliu’s exceptionally seductive voice came from the other end, “Drinking, you coming?”

“Hanging up,” Jiang Zhe said.

“Last night you were calling someone ‘sweetheart’, and now you want to hang up on them? Do you have a hound on the outside?”

Jiang Zhe could tell she was drunk and playing the drama queen to the hilt.

She patiently listened, without hanging up.

After a while of Yang Feiliu’s dramatic act with no reaction from Jiang Zhe, she couldn’t be bothered to continue and said, “The drug you asked about last time, the Night Alliance already shipped it to who knows where, I lost track of it.”

“You lost track of it and you’re still this happy?”

“Who made me come across a few bottles of fine wine? A drink today brings joy, a blissful escape from life’s fleeting moments.”

Jiang Zhe felt like stuffing her mouth with a wine bottle, “You, a distinguished Queen of Starshine, are telling me this?”

Starshine was the hacker alliance Jiang Zhe and Yang Feiliu were part of; both were top-notch hacking masters.

Yang Feiliu was known as the Queen of Hearts, and Jiang Zhe as Spade J, both famed throughout the hacking world.

But no one knew that the renowned J and Queen were actually two girls.

The target that Yang Feiliu lost was proving to be quite formidable.

“However, I managed to get a tiny bit of that drug from the Night Alliance before I lost track, but the dosage might not be enough. I suppose I haven’t disgraced our Starshine reputation, have I?”

Jiang Zhe nodded, “Hand it over to me.”

To get even a little bit from the Night Alliance was indeed remarkable, as challenging as snatching food from the jaws of a tiger.

Yang Feiliu gave an address.

Jiang Zhe boarded a bus and headed straight for the bank.

At the bank, she casually walked towards the VIP area.

Soon, a bank employee stopped her, “Miss, may I ask what services you need?”
