- Chapter 3 - "I will marry you, but I will never love you."
“What?”
Ji Xu’an frowned slightly, her tone unusually cold.
Only then did Jiang Jiang realize that she had accidentally said what was on her mind.
She immediately shut her mouth tightly, shook her head vigorously, and pretended that she hadn’t said anything just now.
But Jiang Jiang’s heart was still full of shock. She hadn’t imagined what Ji Xu’an looked like, but Jiang Jiang never expected that Ji Xu’an would have a face that was so familiar to her.
She clearly looked exactly like Princess Huaining!
Jiang Jiang’s thoughts were in a mess.
Who was Princess Huaining?
She was the eldest daughter of Emperor Jiacheng, born of the Empress, and deeply trusted and loved by the Emperor. Although she was a woman, she was able to control the Luanjing Division, supervise hundreds of officials for the Emperor, and had immense power.
In addition to this, she had another identity, that was the Crown Prince’s biological sister. If Jiang Jiang married the Crown Prince and became the Crown Princess, she would have to call Princess Huaining older sister along with the Crown Prince.
What was this?
After transmigrating, I married my fiancé’s older sister??
Jiang Jiang’s brain was almost blank.
She stared at Ji Xu’an blankly for a long time, and didn’t come back to her senses for a long time.
Ji Xu’an became more and more impatient with Jiang Jiang’s strange gaze. What did Xie Xiao mean by this?
She just staring at me without saying a word, was she waiting for me to speak first?
Ji Xu’an felt her head start to ache again. Hunger and fatigue reduced Ji Xu’an’s patience to the lowest point. She casually took off the watch on her wrist and threw it aside, and said coldly to Jiang Jiang, “Come down.”
After speaking, Ji Xu’an didn’t give Jiang Jiang a chance to refuse, turned around and walked to the living room, and sat down on the sofa.
When Jiang Jiang came over, Ji Xu’an was crossing her legs and leaning against the sofa, pinching a small teacup with two fingers, and moisturizing her throat casually.
Her eyes were slightly lowered, leaving Jiang Jiang with a profile that was extremely indifferent.
As soon as Jiang Jiang saw her face, she felt an unspeakable tension, not to mention Ji Xu’an’s cold and strong attitude, all of which made Jiang Jiang dare not act rashly.
She sat upright and straight, her back straight, her hands placed on her legs in a well-behaved manner, her eyelashes trembling slightly, and her eyes always focused on one place, without even the courage to look up at Ji Xu’an.
Ji Xu’an lifted her eyelids, her eyes were not respectful, she looked at Jiang Jiang presumptuously, from the other party’s long eyelashes all the way to the tightly clasped knuckles. When her eyes swept to Jiang Jiang’s tightly closed feet, Ji Xu’an couldn’t help but snorted softly.
Xie Xiao seemed to be afraid of me?
Ji Xu’an thought, I didn’t seem to have done anything too much, though?
Could it be that she had a guilty conscience?
She tapped her fingertips lightly, thoughtfully.
Jiang Jiang was so nervous that she almost didn’t know how to breathe. She could feel Ji Xu’an was looking at her, and even felt the bone-chilling coldness as Ji Xu’an’s eyes swept over her.
Jiang Jiang’s original words suddenly didn’t know how to say them. She hesitated again and again, and couldn’t help but secretly glance at Ji Xu’an, but was caught by Ji Xu’an.
Ji Xu’an raised her eyebrows, “Are you afraid of me?”
Jiang Jiang kept chanting in her heart, she is not Princess Huaining, they are two different people…
She made enough mental preparations, mustered up the courage to raise her eyes to meet Ji Xu’an’s gaze. At the moment when their eyes met, Jiang Jiang suddenly tightened her fingertips and couldn’t speak.
Ji Xu’an stared at Jiang Jiang quietly, taking all her small movements into her eyes, “Let’s talk.”
“Talk about what?” Jiang Jiang replied very softly.
She glanced at Ji Xu’an again and again, thinking, as expected, they looked very similar, except that Princess Huaining had a small mole on her brow, but Ji Xu’an’s forehead was smooth and clean, with nothing on it.
Just like her and Xie Xiao, she had a black mole on the inside of her right wrist, but Xie Xiao didn’t.
It was difficult for Jiang Jiang not to associate anything. She and Xie Xiao exchanged identities, Ji Xu’an and Princess Huaining’s relationship…
Ji Xu’an loosened her cuffs, her tone very light, “Let’s talk about our ‘destined’ marriage.”
She emphasized the words “destined,” with a strong sense of sarcasm, making it difficult for Jiang Jiang not to hear it.
Ji Xu’an’s attitude was obviously very bad, but Jiang Jiang was relieved. She wasn’t afraid of Ji Xu’an being bad to her, she was afraid of being unpredictable, afraid that she couldn’t see through Ji Xu’an’s true thoughts.
“I know…you don’t like me.” Jiang Jiang looked at Ji Xu’an seriously, “Just…for now, can you let me live here first?”
As she spoke, two blushes appeared on her face. This was the first time in her life that Jiang Jiang had encountered such an experience of begging someone to take her in.
Ji Xu’an heard this and showed a mocking smile, “Haven’t you already moved in?”
She and her grandmother were cunning and forced me to agree to this absurd thing.
Jiang Jiang stirred her fingers, lowered her head and didn’t dare to look at Ji Xu’an again, “I’m sorry.”
Besides apologizing, she didn’t seem to have any other way, and she didn’t even have enough money to pay the rent.
Jiang Jiang knew what Ji Xu’an wanted. Before Ji Xu’an could speak, she quickly said, “Don’t worry about the old lady, I will explain it to her clearly.”
Ji Xu’an chuckled, “How are you going to explain it clearly? Maybe Grandma will think I’m forcing you.”
She leaned back on the sofa, her eyes indifferent, “Xie Xiao, don’t do anything unnecessary.”
Jiang Jiang felt a chill down her back when she said this. Even if Ji Xu’an wasn’t the bloodthirsty Princess Huaining, her aura was equally difficult to resist.
Jiang Jiang realized that the negotiation she had originally planned was completely unnecessary, because Ji Xu’an didn’t need it.
“Then I’ll listen to you, whatever you say, I’ll do it.” Jiang Jiang met Ji Xu’an’s gaze again, her eyes sincere and earnest.
Ji Xu’an didn’t care, she regarded Jiang Jiang’s weakness as a retreat to advance.
“I hope you can do what you say, don’t play any tricks in front of Grandma tomorrow.”
Ji Xu’an stood up and looked at Jiang Jiang condescendingly, “Xie Xiao, you have to understand one thing.”
Jiang Jiang looked up at her, her round apricot eyes didn’t have the panic and helplessness of being seen through, only the clear and calm like a clear spring.
Ji Xu’an didn’t want to delve into it. No matter what tricks Jiang Jiang played, she was confident that she could handle it. If she confronted her head-on, the one who would suffer would only be Jiang Jiang.
She opened her lips and said coldly, “Because of your grandmother’s last wish, I have to accept this marriage.”
“I will marry you, but I will never love you.”
“Do you understand?”
It’s fake,it’s all fake.
Ji Xu’an sneered in her heart, how could I marry her?
Jiang Jiang didn’t feel sad at all when she heard this, but was relieved.
To be honest, she couldn’t imagine the scene of Ji Xu’an falling in love with her, it must be more frightening than the picture of a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey.
Besides, how many aristocratic marriages were based on true love?
I didn’t like the Crown Prince either, but I still accepted the title of Crown Princess.
Ji Xu’an was willing to marry her, which already surprised her.
“I understand, I won’t daydream, trying to get your love.” Jiang Jiang raised a few fingers, sincerely as could be, “I swear.”
Ji Xu’an stared at her for a few seconds, left a sneer, and went to the dining room leisurely.
Jiang Jiang looked at her back and silently breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, this hurdle was finally over.
——
Tonight was Jiang Jiang’s first day living in the Ji family.
The night in the villa was very quiet, and even the chirping of insects couldn’t be heard. Because of the air conditioner, the room maintained a comfortable temperature, and the quilt was soft and warm.
Jiang Jiang should have had a good sleep – if she didn’t have that dream.
Awakened from a nightmare, Jiang Jiang suddenly sat up, gasping for breath, her forehead covered with cold sweat.
She covered her heart, as if she could still feel the fear and panic of falling from a high altitude.
Jiang Jiang calmed down for a while, then turned over and got out of bed, forgetting to put on her shoes. She found her black backpack from the closet barefoot, and rummaged through it for the white jade exquisite mirror.
After taking the mirror in her hand, Jiang Jiang realized that her hands were still shaking. She didn’t care how embarrassed she looked, so she sat cross-legged at the foot of the bed and called Xie Xiao.
This connection was very fast. Almost in the next second, Xie Xiao’s figure appeared in the mirror.
At the moment when the two looked at each other, they both saw the remaining panic in each other’s eyes.
In the next instant, the two said in unison: “I had a nightmare!”
Jiang Jiang’s heart tightened, and the feeling of panic that she couldn’t see through the future was even worse. She was like walking in a thick fog, with a white expanse all around, and she couldn’t even see the ground under her feet.
She couldn’t find the direction and couldn’t see the end.
Jiang Jiang’s throat was extremely astringent. Looking at Xie Xiao’s red eyes, she only felt that the powerlessness was about to drown her.
The two were silent to calm their emotions. After a while, Jiang Jiang spoke first, “Xiao Xiao, you speak first, what did you dream about?”
Xie Xiao sniffed, shrank in the corner of the bed and hugged her legs tightly. The feeling of being isolated and helpless made her like a headless fly. Only Jiang Jiang could be trusted by her side.
“I dreamed that the world I am in now is actually an ancient romance novel.”
Xie Xiao looked at Jiang Jiang, “You are the original heroine of this ancient romance novel, the Crown Prince is the hero, you are childhood sweethearts, and you should have been a match made in heaven. The Crown Prince will love you and cherish you for the rest of your life, and regard you as a treasure.”
Jiang Jiang didn’t feel much when she heard this, after all, until the moment she and Xie Xiao exchanged, she didn’t love the Crown Prince. And Jiang Jiang noticed that Xie Xiao said “original” heroine, presumably there was a turning point later.
Sure enough, Xie Xiao then said: “But this is only the initial plot, because the Crown Prince’s concubine Zheng Zhouzhou has been reborn, she is the real heroine. In her previous life, Zheng Zhouzhou was in the Crown Prince’s East Palace, like an inconspicuous weed, the Crown Prince never favored her.”
So she deeply resented you and envied you. After being reborn, she tried her best to attract the Crown Prince’s attention and stole the Crown Prince’s favor.
“The Crown Prince fell in love with her, but after all, her status was low, and you were the Crown Princess appointed by the Emperor, the Crown Prince didn’t dare to disobey the imperial decree, so he could only reluctantly marry you.
After the Crown Prince ascended the throne, you also smoothly became the Empress, and Zheng Zhouzhou became a favored concubine because of her son. Unfortunately, not long after becoming the Empress, you ‘died of illness’.”
“After you died, the Crown Prince made Zheng Zhouzhou the successor Empress, and the two were loving for a lifetime, and Zheng Zhouzhou’s son became the next Emperor.”
In short, Jiang Jiang, the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo, was a pure cannon fodder villain, a stumbling block on the road of love between the male and female protagonists.
Now, Xie Xiao replaced her and became this cannon fodder villain.
Thinking of the disgusting things that the Crown Prince and Zheng Zhouzhou did, Xie Xiao was almost vomiting with anger.
She wiped her tears hard, “Bah, those two bitches want to step on me to get to the top, dream on!”
The anger in her heart was surging, Jiang Jiang secretly pinched her palm hard, but her face didn’t show any emotion. She nodded, looking at Xie Xiao with a worried face, “You’re right, Xiao Xiao, the Crown Prince is not a good match, you shouldn’t jump into this fire pit.”
Xie Xiao rubbed her eyes, “You don’t have to worry about me, Jiang Jiang, I have a way to make the Crown Prince cancel the engagement.”.”
Jiang Jiang opened her mouth, wanting to say something, Xie Xiao didn’t want her to worry, and interrupted her before her, “It’s your turn, tell me, what dream did you have?”
Jiang Jiang clenched the handle of the white jade exquisite mirror, her fingertips still icy cold, “I dreamed that…the world I am in now is also a novel.”
“It’s just that the protagonists are two girls.”
Xie Xiao frowned, “One of the protagonists, shouldn’t it be…”
Jiang Jiang took a deep breath, her face heavy, “One of the protagonists looks very similar to the Crown Prince, she is Ji Xu’an’s younger sister, Ji Heyuan.”
After a few seconds of silence, Xie Xiao cursed, “Isn’t that fucking just a gender-bent version of the dog Crown Prince??”
“Why is this bastard the protagonist?”
Jiang Jiang also wanted to ask why. The Crown Prince couldn’t tell right from wrong and favored his concubine over his wife. Could such a person be the protagonist?
After Xie Xiao finished cursing, she barely calmed down, “Jiang Jiang, continue.”
Jiang Jiang lowered her eyes, “The other protagonist of this article is a small star named Zheng Zhouzhou. She met Ji Heyuan at a wine party.”
It was a very simple story. Zheng Zhouzhou was embarrassed by an investor, and Ji Heyuan helped her out. Zheng Zhouzhou accidentally learned Ji Heyuan’s identity. In order to get more resources, Zheng Zhouzhou decided to use her beauty to seduce Ji Heyuan.
In the earliest story, Ji Heyuan didn’t take the bait. She wasn’t seduced by Zheng Zhouzhou, but fell in love with Xie Xiao, an orphan living in the Ji family.
In that story, there was no marriage contract between Xie Xiao and Ji Xu’an. Instead, after learning of her friend’s death, Old Mrs. Ji felt sorry for Xie Xiao’s loneliness and took her to live in the Ji family for a few months.
It was during these few months that Ji Heyuan and Xie Xiao fell in love with each other and eventually came together, and Zheng Zhouzhou was naturally eliminated.
If there were no accidents, this should be a warm redemption article. Unfortunately, Zheng Zhouzhou was reborn.
After being reborn, Zheng Zhouzhou was unwilling to lose to an orphan who had nothing. She used her knowledge of the future to attract Ji Heyuan’s attention one step ahead and became Ji Heyuan’s girlfriend.
But Zheng Zhouzhou was still not satisfied. She was afraid that Ji Heyuan would still be attracted to Xie Xiao, so she simply did it once and for all, deliberately staged a play, guiding her fans to cyberbully Xie Xiao, and finally forced Xie Xiao’s psychological defense line to collapse and commit suicide by jumping off a building.
After Xie Xiao died, Zheng Zhouzhou deliberately showed a sad look in front of the camera, severely abused a wave of fans, and stepped on Xie Xiao’s bones to get to the top.
Now, Jiang Jiang has been replaced to play the role of Xie Xiao.
After telling this story, Jiang Jiang and Xie Xiao were silent.
The two looked at each other. After a while, Xie Xiao curled her lips pretentiously and lightly, “Why are we so unlucky? Whether it’s in an ancient romance article or a lily article, we are both cannon fodder villains.”
The kind that is destined not to live to the end.
Jiang Jiang bit her knuckles, her expression solemn, “Xiao Xiao, there is no marriage with Ji Xu’an in the story at all. Do you think grandmother knows something?”
When Xie Xiao heard her say this, her tone was also hesitant, “To be honest, my grandmother knows a little about metaphysics.”
“She can read people’s faces.”
Xie Xiao didn’t dare to say the following words.
But she and Jiang Jiang had the same thoughts in their hearts.
Could it be that grandmother had known for a long time that the two would have this day of exchanging identities, so she made this marriage that shouldn’t have existed.
Fang Xun Chun kept it very tightly. Even to her own granddaughter, she didn’t say anything. Xie Xiao didn’t even know that grandmother had told Old Mrs. Ji that she must wait until two months later before taking her to the Ji family.
If she knew this, she would definitely be able to guess that Xie’s grandmother had already seen something.
Jiang Jiang leaned weakly against the end of the bed, her thoughts gradually becoming clear, “In that case, it means that the plots of these two stories are not impossible to disrupt.”
“Xiao Xiao, don’t be afraid, we already know what will happen in the future, there must be a way to change it.”
They will never follow the plot and head towards a doomed ending.
Xie Xiao nodded vigorously, “I’m not afraid, Jiang Jiang, don’t worry either. At worst, I can just pretend to be crazy. The royal family can’t accept a crown princess with a mental problem, right?”
Jiang Jiang shook her head, “It’s not at that point yet.”
She pondered for a moment, and suddenly frowned hesitantly.
Xie Xiao discovered it, “What did you think of?”
Jiang Jiang looked at the mole on the inside of her wrist, “It’s not that I discovered anything, Xiao Xiao, there is something I forgot to tell you, I wanted to tell you tomorrow.”
Xie Xiao showed a curious expression, “What’s the matter? Tell me.”
Jiang Jiang spoke slowly, “You shouldn’t have seen Ji Xu’an, right?”
“Actually, Ji Xu’an looks exactly like Princess Huaining.”
Xie Xiao was dumbfounded, “Who? Princess Huaining?”
She had heard of who Princess Huaining was, but the problem was, wasn’t that the dog Crown Prince’s biological sister?!
Wait a minute, doesn’t that match up? Ji Xu’an is also Ji Heyuan’s biological sister!
Xie Xiao didn’t know what to say for a moment.
Jiang Jiang didn’t know whether to suggest Xie Xiao do this, after all, Princess Huaining’s temper was much worse than Ji Xu’an’s.
And the most important point was that Princess Huaining controlled the Luanjing Division and had the power to act first and report later.
She could kill people without breaking the law.
Jiang Jiang felt that Xie Xiao should not be Princess Huaining’s opponent.
But Xie Xiao suddenly became excited after a brief thought.
“Jiang Jiang, you reminded me!”
“The reason why the dog Crown Prince is so arrogant is because he will inherit the throne in the future.”
“But what if the person who inherits the throne is not him?”
There was no reason why the modern Ji Xu’an could take over the Linghai Group and develop it more and more prosperously, and the ancient Princess Huaining couldn’t become a female emperor and unify the world!
Xie Xiao decided that she would encourage Princess Huaining to ascend to the throne as the Crown Princess and let the dog Crown Prince stay where he wants!
Xie Xiao was as excited as if she had been injected with chicken blood. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that her idea was simply too perfect, the kind that would have to score one hundred and twenty points out of a hundred.
Jiang Jiang rubbed her eyebrows and reminded her, “Princess Huaining is very scheming and not so easy to get along with, Xiao Xiao, let’s discuss this matter further.”
Xie Xiao hummed twice, “I understand, I’ll act cautiously.”
Her tone showed obvious perfunctoriness.
After temporarily resolving her own concerns, Xie Xiao began to think about Jiang Jiang’s way to break the situation.
“Jiang Jiang, it just so happens that you have become Ji Xu’an’s fiancée, so you should marry her! Then try your best to seduce her, make her crazy for you, and make her forget her sister for you!”
“When the time comes, whether it’s Ji Heyuan or Zheng Zhouzhou, they will have to call you sister-in-law obediently!”
It’s so cool!
“As the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, you are also half of Ji Heyuan’s mother, how dare she be disrespectful to her mother?”
Jiang Jiang was stunned, “That won’t work…”
Xie Xiao touched her nose, “What won’t work?”
So Jiang Jiang told Xie Xiao everything about her conversation with Ji Xu’an a few hours ago.
This time it was Xie Xiao’s turn to be stunned, “Why is Ji Xu’an so arrogant?”
Jiang Jiang: Huh?
Arrogant?.. I don’t think so.
It’s just that these words, under Xie Xiao’s angry gaze, Jiang Jiang didn’t dare to say them.
Xie Xiao was surprisingly angry, “Okay, okay,”
“Then you have to seduce her even more! Make her fall in love with you, slap herself in the face, and then reject her severely, let her experience the pain of unrequited love!”
“You must arrange the wife chasing crematorium for her!”
Jiang Jiang weakly raised her hand, “Xiao Xiao, murder is illegal.”
“We can’t do bad things.”
And cremate Ji Xu’an…that’s too scary!
“That’s not what I meant.” Xie Xiao didn’t know how to explain for a while, “In short, you have to make her fall in love with you, and then slap the words she said today hard on her face.”
“You tell her: ‘Ji Xu’an , I will marry you, but I will never love you.'”
“Piss her off!”
Just thinking about it is so cool, okay!
Xie Xiao couldn’t wait to see this scene.
Ji Xu’an’s cold face like frost subconsciously appeared in Jiang Jiang’s mind, and she immediately shuddered.
“I can’t, I really can’t!”
