Jiaojiao, You Don't Want To... [Yandere Reverse Harem Novel]

Chapter 14 (1/2)

Wen Zhijiao wasn't able to adjust her mood in the restroom. A few female security guards were already urging her outside. She responded with a few words and looked at the Master in front of her. After a few seconds, she said, "Can the plot unfold after this? I want to see..."

"It can't unfold. This is generated in real-time, and the rest is still loading." The Master said, "Go ahead and complete the previous plot. Otherwise, you'll be wasting time."

With that, the Master snatched the notebook from her hand and dissipated into tiny particles. Seeing this, Wen Zhijiao could only tilt her head, wiping away her tears with two fingers before pushing open the door and walking out.

Following the security guards, she walked out of the lounge and saw a group of people in the distance. Jiang Yuancheng stood in the center of the group, dressed in a suit, his body tall and straight. He looked at her from across the crowd. Wen Zhijiao walked to his side, enduring his gaze. Immediately, the security guards behind Jiang Yuancheng skillfully spread out, placing them within their protective circle. Wen Zhijiao was used to it, only feeling a faint sense of death in her heart.

Jiang Yuancheng put his arm around her waist, adjusting her hair, and whispered, "Why are your eyes so red?"

"I poked my eye when I was applying mascara." Wen Zhijiao let him adjust her hair, then tugged at his sleeve, "I still feel... a little scared of your aunt. How about I go and pick up Wen Sui and the others, and you go see your aunt? We can meet back at the manor."

Jiang Yuancheng smiled, "Don't worry, your aunt just isn't familiar with you yet. She'll like you. Also, she told me on the phone that she's already met my parents."

Wen Zhijiao remembered that the plot seemed to say that, so she wasn't surprised. She just responded dryly.

Jiang Yuancheng tightened his grip on her, his voice lowering, "Besides, shouldn't I be the one who's nervous? After all, Wen Sui didn't seem to like me before, and he still doesn't really accept that we're getting engaged." His gray eyes stared at Wen Zhijiao, a slight curve at the corner of his mouth, "He's really reluctant to let you go."

Those words gave Wen Zhijiao goosebumps. She didn't dare to look at Jiang Yuancheng, just looking around, "Not really. I haven't been in touch with him much these past few years."

Jiang Yuancheng withdrew his gaze and didn't ask any more questions. Wen Zhijiao breathed a sigh of relief. Jiang Yuancheng didn't even know that Wen Sui was adopted yet, and he was already acting like he couldn't stand it. If he knew, who knows what kind of crazy things he'd do. Thankfully, thankfully, they're getting engaged in a few days, and she'll be free...

Thinking about the future, Wen Zhijiao regained her spirits. Just then, she heard a few greetings.

"Wen Zhijiao!"

"Jiaojiao, over here, over here!"

Wen Sui and the Wen family's calls drew Jiang Linchen's attention. The Wen family was very talkative. Even though Jiang Qingshuang didn't want to say much, she couldn't help but chat with them for a long time. Jiang Linchen, in a timely manner, played the role of an awkward fool, sitting to the side, occasionally chiming in with a few words.

When he heard their voices, he looked up, but he first saw a large group of men in black security uniforms. Among them, Jiang Yuancheng was impeccably dressed, holding a walking stick, his posture relaxed. Wen Zhijiao hadn't even seen the woman standing beside him clearly when she saw Wen Sui and his parents rushing towards them, hugging and touching them, a barrage of words filling the air.

"The car ride was long, are you still carsick? Do you feel uncomfortable?"

"Oh, I told you we could just go directly, why did you have to come?"

Wen Zhijiao was surrounded by the three Wen family members, bombarded with questions. Wen Sui walked around Wen Zhijiao, inspecting her from head to toe before saying, "The food here must not suit your taste. You look thinner."

On the other side, Jiang Qingshuang also walked to Jiang Yuancheng. She looked up at her nephew and said, "You've grown a little taller."

The two families were only a few steps apart, but at this moment, they seemed like two separate groups, each chatting amongst themselves.

Jiang Yuancheng's gaze, however, went past Jiang Qingshuang, towards Jiang Linchen standing beside her. His gray eyes held a hint of a smile, "Brother, I didn't expect you to come. I thought you were so busy, you wouldn't have time to attend this engagement."

"It doesn't sound like a welcome." Jiang Linchen joked, then said, "But you look more energetic than before. Getting married and starting a family is truly the greatest beauty treatment for a man."

Jiang Qingshuang glanced at Jiang Linchen, "No wonder I find you more and more unpleasant."

For a moment, all three of them laughed. Just then, a rather delicate and annoyed voice came from behind Jiang Linchen, "You've been to college, can you stop asking me about my grades?!"

Jiang Linchen turned his head and saw Wen Sui, surrounded by the Wen family, still smiling. His brown curly hair made his eyebrows and nose bridge even more profound and handsome.

Beside Wen Sui was a woman wearing a rose-patterned halter dress. Her curly hair fell on her slender, white shoulders, and pink ribbons ran through her hair. Her lips were even more moist against the pink backdrop, and beneath her curved eyebrows were slightly drooping, slightly upturned eyes. The light from the glass dome fell on her eye sockets and lips, adding a touch of damp, alluring charm.

She seemed to notice his gaze and looked over, passing through the crowd. The light fell on her long, narrow collarbone, and the flickering shadows were like liquid held in the hollow of the collarbone.

She jumped as if startled, taking a step back and bumping into someone's luggage. The luggage fell with a heavy "thump!"

Jiang Linchen felt the sound explode in his ears, followed by a ringing in his ears like a disease. His Adam's apple bobbed.

The next second, Jiang Yuancheng blocked his view, walking into the middle of the Wen family. He almost forcefully inserted himself between Wen Zhijiao and Wen Sui, his arm firmly supporting Wen Zhijiao's waist.

Jiang Yuancheng looked at them, "Aunt, I haven't had a chance to introduce you yet. This is Wen Zhijiao's brother, Wen Sui." He then turned to the Wen family and said, "The one over there is my cousin, Jiang Linchen."

Jiang Qingshuang grabbed Jiang Linchen's arm and whispered, "Go talk to them, what are you standing there for?"

Jiang Linchen withdrew his gaze, a slight twitch at the corner of his lips. After a few seconds, he ran his fingers over his ear, his voice low, "Nothing, I just remembered something."

He finished speaking and followed Jiang Qingshuang. As they walked over, he heard Jiang Qingshuang's voice, "We have the right number of people to split into two cars. Let the younger generation sit together, and we'll sit together. We can also talk about plans after the engagement in the car."

She finished speaking and then looked at Jiang Linchen, "You're the oldest of all of us. Have a good chat with your younger siblings. Don't say anything nasty."

Jiang Linchen just smiled and didn't say anything. Jiang Yuancheng raised his hand and motioned for a few security guards to lead the way. Wen's parents and Jiang Qingshuang followed the guides, chatting as they walked ahead, leaving the younger generation behind.

"You're Jiang Yuancheng's fiancée, Wen Zhijiao, right? I've heard so much about you." Jiang Linchen extended his hand towards Wen Zhijiao, a smile in his black eyes, making him seem even more dignified and refined. "I'm Jiang Yuancheng's cousin, Jiang Linchen. I currently teach at B University. Nice to meet you."

Wen Zhijiao was about to reach out, but Jiang Yuancheng tightened his grip on her waist. She immediately took a deep breath. The next second, Jiang Yuancheng smiled and reached out to slap Jiang Linchen's hand away, "Alright, no need to be so formal. We're all family."

Jiang Linchen didn't show any sign of being offended. He just smiled.

Wen Sui, seeing this, tugged at his lips and smiled, "Maybe he's just jealous. You wouldn't know, but my brother-in-law is very possessive of my sister. Even with me, he rarely lets her talk on the phone with me."

Wen Zhijiao's smile froze. She turned her head and flipped her hair, taking the opportunity to glare fiercely at Wen Sui. Just say less, he's going crazy, it's not your job to appease him!

Wen Sui looked at her rolling eyes and smiled even brighter. He grabbed Wen Zhijiao's hand, "Sister, why are your hands still so cold? I thought your health had improved a lot in the past few years." Wen Sui said, holding Wen Zhijiao's hand up, shaking it, and squeezing it.

Jiang Yuancheng's gray eyes narrowed, and his grip on Wen Zhijiao's waist tightened.

Wen Zhijiao: "..." It hurts, it hurts, it hurts! Her eyes welled up with tears, and she heard Jiang Linchen's voice, "By the way, Wen Sui, didn't you want to add me on WeChat? I was hesitant before, but now I think we can talk about the equipment procurement."

Jiang Linchen finished speaking, and Wen Sui nodded, naturally smiling, and took out his phone.
