Bab 17: She's More Important Than the Plan
Editor: Henyee Translations
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yingying was shocked. "What did you say?"
She was a child from the countryside and attached great importance to her studies. She basically spent all her time in the self-study room and even had a personal seat in the public self-study room with all her learning materials and notes. Although she had a seat, it actually didn't matter if others sat there. Besides, everyone had this habit and nothing happened because of this. But why did someone burn her books today?
"Come quickly! I don't know where these people came from. We can't stop them at all!" Yang Xuerong said anxiously.
Jiang Yingying hung up and rushed out the door.
At this moment, Chu Tang was leaning against the sofa and listening to the driver, Zhu Cheng, reading the newspaper to him. Seeing her rush out, Chu Tang frowned slightly. "You're so flustered. What happened?"
"I have to go to school immediately. I can't eat breakfast with you!" Jiang Yingying hurriedly ran to the entrance to change her shoes. She thought of something and asked, "Can you get Zhu Cheng to send me? I'm in a hurry." It was too late to take a taxi now!
"Go," Chu Tang said calmly.
The driver, Zhu Cheng, put down the newspaper and strode away with Jiang Yingying.
After Jiang Yingying left, the butler, Gu Bei, walked over. "I just heard from the old residence that Chu Lin went to Madam's school."
Chu Tang sneered. "Prepare the car. We're going to school too."
Gu Bei hesitated. "Sir, our plan isn't complete yet. We aren't ready to clash head-on with Chu Lin."
Chu Tang took off his sunglasses and looked at Gu Bei coldly. "He already messed with my wife. What am I waiting for?"
Jingdu University's self-study room.
After Jiang Yingying got out of the car, she ran. The books she had placed in the self-study room not only contained her class notes, but also the various award certificates she had received in the past. Most importantly, there were also the small cards her grandmother gave her every year for her birthday. Those greeting cards were crudely made and the words were crooked. In the eyes of others, they might be worse than scrap paper. However, those were Jiang Yingying's most important things. Her grandmother couldn't read. For her, she had specifically learned a few words and made greeting cards for her…
When Jiang Yingying arrived, she saw a group of bodyguards in black throwing her books and notes into the brazier in front of Yang Xuerong.
Beside the brazier, a man in a dark green suit was leisurely sitting in a chair. "Tsk, what a bunch of trash! Burn them all!"
"Put it down!" Under her immense anger, Jiang Yingying pounced on the man like a lunatic. When she pounced on him, Jiang Yingying realized that this man was actually Chu Lin! No wonder he was dressed in such a tacky manner!
"Yo, sister-in-law, you want to throw yourself at me so much? You should have said so earlier. I wouldn't have objected. But since you're so open-minded, why did you pretend to be uninterested last night at the residence?" Chu Lin was still sitting there aloofly as he sized up Jiang Yingying.
Jiang Yingying gritted her teeth and shook off Chu Lin. She hugged the torn certificates and kicked the brazier away. She picked up her bag to put out the fire. "These are my things! It's illegal for you to destroy them and burn them!" Jiang Yingying's eyes were red. However, she was no match for a group of men.
"Stop!" Chu Lin crossed his legs and said proudly, "Stop for the sake of my sister-in-law."
As soon as Chu Lin finished speaking, the bodyguards in black stopped.
Yang Xuerong also rushed up and snatched the things in their hands. However, there were still many things in the brazier that were about to be burned away. As Jiang Yingying sorted out the things in her hand, she looked up at the brazier. In the end, she saw a corner of a photo album and her eyes widened! In that photo album, there were the photo cards her grandmother gave her every year!
Almost subconsciously, Jiang Yingying reached out and took out the half-burnt booklet from the fire basin. Even though the fire had been extinguished, the remaining warmth still burnt her fingers. However, she kept patting the remaining sparks on the booklet with her sleeve, as if she didn't feel anything.
Yang Xuerong snatched the booklet from Jiang Yingying's hand and placed it aside. She held Jiang Yingying's burning red fingers and said angrily, "Who are you guys? You're too outrageous!"
Chu Lin smiled. "Ask Jiang Yingying. Compared to how Chu Tang sowed discord yesterday, this is nothing." As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed at the bandage on his forehead. "Sister-in-law, you shouldn't have forgotten how this came about, right?"
