Chapter 564: Chapter 564: The Ancestor Said It’s Only Natural to Like Chapter 564: Chapter 564: The Ancestor Said It’s Only Natural to Like “But, Ancestral Figure, haven’t you noticed that President Fu might actually like you?” Xia Xin said, cutting straight to the point for the oblivious Jiangli.
Jiangli paused mid-bite, “Like?”
She seed bewildered.
Xia Xin explained, “Yes, the way a guy likes a girl, wanting to marry you, to beco a couple, that kind of liking!”
He tried to put it as simply as he could for Jiangli to understand.
At the ntion of this, Jiangli chuckled lightly, “Isn’t it quite normal to like ?”
Xia Xin: “…”
Oh boy…
“I’m so amazing, who wouldn’t like ?” Jiangli said, full of righteous confidence.
Xia Xin’s face twitched.
Fine then.
Xia Xin was worried sick, but he could tell that Jiangli’s heart was open and untroubled; she simply didn’t see any problem.
No matter how much he said, Jiangli wouldn’t take it seriously.
All Xia Xin could do was sigh and plan to subtly remind Jiangli every day, indirectly brainwashing the Ancestral Figure so she would stay away from Fu Shiyan.
You can’t beco fat with just one mouthful; he’d have to take it slow.
“Forget it, Ancestral Figure, just keep your distance from President Fu from now on, and if anything cos up, I’ll deal with him.”
But Jiangli waved her hand dismissively, “There’s no need to make such a fuss, I think President Fu is quite nice. He’s handso, has good fortune, and besides, he still owes one-third of his luck; wouldn’t I be harming myself by staying away from him?”
Xia Xin was caught between laughter and tears.
Ancestral Figure, are you sure getting close to Fu Shiyan isn’t digging your own grave?
He felt sowhat helpless.
Seeing Jiangli not taking his words to heart, Xia Xin heaved a long sigh and chose to give up.
Anyway, the Ancestral Figure wasn’t likely to suffer any loss.
Xia Xin could only set aside his concerns for the mont and picked up Jiangli’s phone to attend to more pressing matters, “Okay, Ancestral Figure, let’s talk about this later. I’m going to check the ssages on the forum; we still have to draw for spots today, right?”
Jiangli nodded, “Then hurry up and get to it.”
Xia Xin: “Got it, I’m on it.”
He logged onto the forum using Jiangli’s phone and imdiately noticed that the ssage notification in the top right corner had blown up again.
Replies and private ssages combined, there were several hundred.
This kind of traffic was exceptionally high for the forum.
Xia Xin was suspicious about the sudden influx and clicked on the ssages to find clues. After so investigation, he discovered what had happened.
The next second, Xia Xin’s eyes widened in shock as he exclaid, “Holy smokes, Ancestral Figure, sothing’s happened!”
Jiangli had just opened a packet of chips, and the sharp crunch startled Xia Xin enough to make him jump.
Jiangli glanced at him, “Look at you, scared over nothing. What could possibly happen to make you like this?”
Xia Xin scooted forward, urgently saying, “Ancestral Figure, do you rember the woman who ca to offer incense this morning? You told her not to walk alone at night.”
With that reminder, Jiangli recalled the incident and nodded, “I rember, what about it? Did sothing happen to her?”
Xia Xin shook his head repeatedly, “No, not to her. It’s another girl who suffered. She heeded the Ancestral Figure’s advice and didn’t take the shortcut ho today, but another girl did, and she ran into a supposedly deranged wanderer, got assaulted, and was killed! It’s all over the news now!”
Not just the forum, Xia Xin had just checked the news app, and it was top headline, highlighted in red.
Upon hearing this, Jiangli paused for a mont, “The girl is dead?”
Xia Xin affird with a grave and sowhat angry expression, “Who knows whether that wanderer is truly insane, it’s despicable! It’s bad enough to assault soone, but he didn’t spare her life either. I wonder what the sentence will be.”
