Upon hearing this, Jiang Cheng looked at Su Yinwan in disbelief.
He remembered when he first returned to the Jiang Family and was bullied by Jiang Lijiang and Jiang Yan almost every day, it was Su Yinwan who told him that he should never bow his head no matter the circumstances because one must always maintain their dignity.
She was actually asking him to beg Jiang Li?
Jiang Cheng parted his lips but in the end, he couldn’t utter the words. Instead, he took Su Yinwan’s hand.
"It’s okay, Sister Xiao Wan, let’s go somewhere else. There must be another place nearby where we can hide."
Su Yinwan shook off his hand, barely holding onto her last bit of patience, "But this is clearly the safest place now, Chengcheng, you wouldn’t want to see me freeze out here, would you? What’s wrong with asking your sister for help? She definitely can’t be that heartless."
She had already thought it through.
If Jiang Li agreed, then she would have scrounged a place to stay, not only avoiding the current storm but also taking the opportunity to infiltrate their ranks.
But if Jiang Li refused, then her reputation for being indifferent and uncaring in the face of death would be solidified, and her fans would certainly not let her off the hook.
Thinking this, Su Yinwan started to act more pitifully towards Jiang Cheng.
If it had been before, Jiang Cheng would definitely have felt heartbroken for her.
But now, hearing Su Yinwan make such a request, it really left a bad taste in his mouth.
Asking him to beg that female devil—wasn’t that just like handing his face over to be slapped?
When had the kind and considerate Sister Xiao Wan become so domineering?
"Sister Xiao Wan, believe me, I can definitely find a safe place. Let’s hurry and leave, we shouldn’t waste time here."
As he spoke, he started dragging Su Yinwan to leave.
However, this time, Su Yinwan directly pushed him away, a face full of anger, "Jiang Cheng, you repeatedly say I am the person you love most in this world, but now you won’t even talk to Jiang Li for my sake. Do you really care about me?"
[? What kind of new PUA script is this?]
[I can’t stand it anymore. I just realized how disgusting Su Yinwan is. Successfully un-followed, goodbye.]
[Isn’t it, I am starting to feel sorry for Jiang Cheng now. Turns out he’s always been manipulated by Su Yinwan ?]
[?? I don’t understand, if you want in, why don’t you ask yourself? Why make a kid beg for you? Are you crazy?]
Netizens started bashing Su Yinwan one after another, and soon, the news climbed to the top of the trending list on Weibo, becoming the highlight of the day.
A famous actress manipulates a high school student regardless of her own image?
That’s absolutely outrageous!
Jiang Cheng also looked at Su Yinwan with disbelief.
"Sister Xiao Wan, how can you say that? Isn’t it because I care about you that I came out to rescue you?"
He had risked such a great danger to save her from the lake, for which he had even fallen out with everyone.
And this was what he got in return—an estranged Su Yinwan?
Suddenly, Jiang Cheng felt the irony of the situation, and at that moment, the passion within him was completely doused by the heavy rain.
He wiped the rainwater off his face, his gaze gradually turning cold, "Sister Xiao Wan, since you’re safe now, I’ll just go back alone. You can go find Shang Shaojing; he can give you what you want."
After saying that, Jiang Cheng turned to leave. Su Yinwan panicked and quickly grabbed him.
"Are you just going to leave me here?"
Jiang Cheng looked back, puzzled, "I came out to rescue you in the first place, it’s you who doesn’t want to stay with me. So why should I keep staying here in the rain suffering with you?"
Su Yinwan sneered silently in her heart.
The villain remained a villain, indifferent and ruthless when it involved their own interests.
What was she thinking to have wasted so much time on him?
"Jiang Cheng, don’t forget who saved you in the first place. Now that you have acknowledged a new sister, have you entirely discarded our friendship?"
"You can’t leave. It’s because of you that I have become . You can’t abandon me alone. As long as you are still out there, Jiang Li will definitely soften her heart and let us in. Why can’t you just beg her?"
Jiang Cheng was utterly shocked by Su Yinwan’s words.
He looked at the woman in front of him who was somewhat hysterical, feeling his heart drop to rock bottom.
"Have you always thought this way?"
[Ding—Jiang Cheng’s affinity decreased by 30 points, leaving only 63.]
Su Yinwan couldn’t care less about the notification sound; she was incredibly weak, even beginning to not hear Jiang Cheng’s words clearly.
She didn’t understand why this villain persistently argued with her outside—couldn’t they talk inside a warm house?
Seeing Su Yinwan’s restless expression, Jiang Cheng seemed to find his answer and pushed her away with a cold sneer.
"Fine, let’s leave it at that. I saved you too, so we are even."
But Su Yinwan wasn’t willing to give up her last lifeline and tightly grabbed onto Jiang Cheng.
"No, you can’t leave. What will I do if you go?"
Jiang Cheng felt utmost disappointment, desperately trying to push her away.
The two struggled for a while, and then a bolt of lightning exploded in mid-air, startling Su Yinwan into screaming and inadvertently pushing Jiang Cheng to the ground.
Jiang Cheng lost his balance and "plunged" into the lake with a splash.
Terrified, Su Yinwan quickly covered her mouth, "Jiang Cheng, Jiang Cheng, are you alright?"
Jiang Cheng had used up his strength just saving Su Yinwan and, now with such a heavy blow and a twisted foot, couldn’t swim at all and could only loudly call for help.
"Sister Xiao Wan, I—I twisted my foot, help me, quick..."
The wind and rain muffled his cries, whereas Su Yinwan seemed frantic but actually stood motionless on the spot.
"But, but I can’t swim either, you, you..."
With the wind so strong, she would definitely fall into the lake too if she attempted to cross.
Then neither of them would survive.
No, she still needed to win, to trample that woman Jiang Li beneath her feet! freēwēbnovel.com
It seemed like an idea struck Su Yinwan, and narrowing her eyes, she yelled towards Jiang Cheng in the lake, "Don’t worry, I’ll call Jiang Li to save you!"
Saying this, she turned and ran into the rain.
But Jiang Cheng hadn’t heard her clearly, seeing only her unhesitant departure from the shore, never to return.
His heart grew completely cold, a self-mocking smile forming on his lips.
Look, this is the person you saved at all costs. When danger came, wasn’t she the first to abandon you?
Su Yinwan and that woman are the same.
Both are heartless villains.
In this world, there was no one who truly cared about him.
With this thought, Jiang Cheng gradually gave up struggling and completely sank into the icy lake waters.
