When An Ancient Chinese Romance Novel Heroine Transmigrated Into A Lesbian Novel - Chapter 45

After breakfast, Ji Xu’an drove Jiang Jiang and Ji Heyuan to school.

Ji Heyuan was a bit listless because her sister had just deducted half a year’s allowance, and she slumped in the back seat like a decadent salted fish.

In contrast, Jiang Jiang’s spirits were excellent.

Even though she had only taken a little over a week off, Jiang Jiang felt like she had been away for a lifetime. She couldn’t wait to get back to school.

The excitement and restlessness in her heart were difficult to dissipate for a long time, so Jiang Jiang simply took out the novel she had written last night.

“Xiao Yuan, I wrote some story outlines last night, can you help me take a look?”

Ji Heyuan cheered up, “Okay, let me see.”

She took the tablet from Jiang Jiang and read it word by word, frowning from time to time, or nodding.

Jiang Jiang was very nervous, feeling like she was waiting for the teacher to comment on her homework, afraid that Ji Heyuan would completely reject what she had written.

When Ji Xu’an was waiting for the red light, she glanced at her, taking in Jiang Jiang’s nervous and uneasy little expression. She raised the corners of her lips, and the expression when she lowered her eyes had a different kind of gentleness.

Unfortunately, Jiang Jiang didn’t see this.

All her attention was focused on Ji Heyuan.

Ji Heyuan read it carefully several times before putting down the tablet, “I think it’s very good overall, the story is very exciting, but there are some places that I feel need to be changed.”

Jiang Jiang’s tightly clenched fingers finally got a rest. She breathed a heavy sigh of relief, glad that not everything was bad.

“Which places need to be changed?” She leaned her body towards the back seat, looking at Ji Heyuan expectantly.

Ji Heyuan also leaned closer, holding the tablet in front of Jiang Jiang and using a pen to mark a few places.

“For example, the name of this novel, I feel it’s too serious and proper. After all, you’re still a newcomer. If you want to quickly attract readers, it’s best to take a more popular title.”

As Ji Heyuan spoke, the tip of the pen tapped the title twice.

Jiang Jiang blinked, “Isn’t “Records of Two Worlds” attractive enough?”

Ji Heyuan cleared her throat and said in a low voice, “After all, we chose a site that mainly caters to female users, and your name has a bit of a male-oriented style.”

Jiang Jiang didn’t quite understand, but she was very receptive to other people’s opinions, “Then how do you think it should be changed?”

Ji Xu’an was still sitting next to her, and Ji Heyuan felt a little ashamed. She didn’t speak, but picked up a pen and quickly wrote a line of small characters next to the title that Jiang Jiang had set.

Jiang Jiang slowly read it out, “After Traveling to Modern Times, I Rely on Learning Modern Knowledge to Reach the Peak of Life?”

Before she could finish reading, Ji Heyuan shouted loudly, trying to interrupt Jiang Jiang, but Ji Xu’an still heard the entire title clearly.

Ji Heyuan vowed that she definitely heard a chuckle coming from the driver’s seat.

Her face flushed red, and she looked at Jiang Jiang with a betrayed expression, “Why did you have to read it out loud!”

Jiang Jiang didn’t understand, “Can’t I read it out loud?”

Ji Heyuan didn’t know how to explain it to her, this thing was just very embarrassing!

Jiang Jiang gave Ji Heyuan a strange look, not understanding why she was frowning. She didn’t think much about it and continued to put forward her own opinions, “Won’t this name be too straightforward?”

Ji Heyuan gave up, “The naming style of Green River is so straightforward.”

(TL: Green River/ JJWXC is the site they’re using .)

“Didn’t you also read the author I recommended to you yesterday? Her titles are all in this style. Or you can go to the list and see other novels, everyone names them like this.”

Jiang Jiang had a look of being taught, “Then I’ll listen to you.”

Perhaps because her reaction was too ordinary, Ji Heyuan didn’t feel so embarrassed anymore.

“And this part, it’s too profound and unpredictable.” Ji Heyuan stroked her chin, “Wait, I’ll change it for you.”

She returned the tablet to Jiang Jiang, and she picked up her phone to type something. Jiang Jiang also sat back and looked at her phone from time to time.

After a while, Jiang Jiang received a message from Ji Heyuan.

[Little Bird: You’re not allowed to read it out this time!!]

Jiang Jiang replied “Okay”, so Ji Heyuan quickly sent the written copy over.

Jiang Jiang stared intently at it—

【Jiang Xiao was just a pitiful girl with the title of the eldest daughter of the Duke’s Mansion, but her father didn’t love her and her mother didn’t care for her. She lived in a Taoist temple with her master since she was a child.

When the pitiful girl grew to be sixteen years old, the Duke’s Mansion suddenly took her back, saying that they wanted to arrange a marriage for her.

The future husband was the current crown prince, with an extremely noble status, but unfortunately, he already had a pampered concubine and disliked Jiang Xiao in every way.

The future could be seen at a glance. Just as Jiang Xiao was in despair, she suddenly went to a world more than a thousand years later in a dream, and also saw many things that opened her eyes.

From then on, Jiang Xiao used the modern knowledge she learned in her dreams to not only propose many good policies that benefited the country and the people, but also kicked the crown prince who attempted to favor his concubine and destroy his wife, and jumped to become a lucky star in the hearts of the people of Da Zhao.

People who came to propose marriage to her were endless, and even the scumbag prince seemed to have regrets. Before Jiang Xiao had time to refuse, she was caught by someone who was jealous.

In the dim secret room, that person grabbed Jiang Xiao’s slender wrist. She had a fairy-like appearance and a cold and noble temperament, but her eyes, when looking at Jiang Xiao, burned with fiery affection.

“A Xiao, where else do you want to escape to?”】

Jiang Jiang: Ah???

The confusion on Jiang Jiang’s face was so obvious that even Ji Xu’an, who had been secretly paying attention to her, was a little curious about what Ji Heyuan had written.

After being stunned for at least two minutes, Jiang Jiang swallowed and turned to look at Ji Heyuan, saying with a difficult voice, “This certain someone, wouldn’t it be Princess Zhaoning?”

Ji Heyuan smiled, “That’s right.”

Jiang Jiang was speechless again, and she tactfully reminded Ji Heyuan, “Princess Zhaoning and Jiang Xiao, are just good friends.”

“Their CP feeling is so strong, how are they good friends?” Ji Heyuan said with confidence.

Jiang Jiang:……

Jiang Jiang tried to persuade her, “Da Zhao has no precedent for women marrying another women, and Princess Zhaoning is indifferent by nature and doesn’t like love, how could she fall in love with Jiang Xiao?”

Ji Heyuan thought that might not be the case. This kind of aloof flower on the surface, once she fell in love, would be like an old house on fire, turning into a pure love lunatic in minutes, more enthusiastic and paranoid than anyone else.

Isn’t that just like my sister?

Of course, Ji Heyuan wouldn’t dare use Ji Xu’an as an example. Although she felt Princess Zhaoning mirrored Ji Xu’an, maybe her sister really was the inspiration for that character?

Ji Heyuan clicked her tongue twice. “Isn’t that even more exciting? This forbidden love, hidden in the shadows, a fiery passion unspoken. On the surface, they’re just casual acquaintances, but in secret, they’re entwined, whispering close, their lips and teeth meeting…”

The more Ji Heyuan talked, the more outrageous it became, and Ji Xu’an had to cough lightly to interrupt her.

“Xiao Yuan.”

Ji Heyuan’s whole body tensed, and she quickly stopped talking, but she didn’t say it on her mouth, but she kept winking at Jiang Jiang, and the smile on her face was particularly presumptuous.

Jiang Jiang admitted that she did think of Ji Xu’an when she was writing, to be precise, Princess Zhaoning was a combination of Ji Xu’an and Princess Huaining.

Naturally, Jiang Xiao is also a mix of herself and Xie Xiao.

But she really didn’t think about writing Jiang Xiao and Princess Zhaoning as a pair. In Jiang Jiang’s heart, the two were at most just friends who helped each other.

But after Ji Heyuan changed it like this, Jiang Jiang seemed completely unable to look directly at the relationship between Jiang Xiao and Princess Zhaoning. What dim secret room, and rubbing ears and temples, Jiang Jiang couldn’t help but blush when she thought of this.

The car had been quiet all the way, Ji Heyuan couldn’t speak, so she had been bombing Jiang Jiang with messages on WeChat, trying to get Jiang Jiang to accept the CP she had formed.

Jiang Jiang didn’t say yes or no in the end.

Ji Xu’an drove the car directly to the teaching building. At this time, there were still more than ten minutes before class, and the roadsides were full of students rushing to class. Ji Xu’an’s behavior really attracted the attention of many people.

When she got out of the car, everyone thought she was a teacher from another college, but Ji Xu’an just wanted to come over and help Jiang Jiang get out of the car.

“Okay, Sister, just rest assured and leave Xie Jiang Jiang to me.” Ji Heyuan patted her chest.

She helped Jiang Jiang up the stone steps. After walking a few steps, Jiang Jiang turned back to look at Ji Xu’an, and found that she was still maintaining her previous posture, quietly watching her.

Jiang Jiang curved the corners of her lips and waved at Ji Xu’an, “Sister, go back quickly, don’t worry about us.”

Ji Xu’an nodded slightly, “Mm.”

But she still didn’t leave, and kept standing there gazing at Jiang Jiang’s back. It wasn’t until Jiang Jiang and Ji Heyuan had walked up the long stone steps and were about to turn into the teaching building that Ji Xu’an turned and got into the car.

Jiang Jiang happened to catch a glimpse of this scene, and she thoughtfully withdrew her gaze, and the fingertips on Ji Heyuan’s arm couldn’t help but tighten a little.

Ji Heyuan helped Jiang Jiang into the classroom. Jiang Jiang scanned the few figures and chose to sit in the first row.

“Send me a message if anything happens. My classroom is right next door.” Ji Heyuan shook her phone.

Jiang Jiang: “Okay, okay.”

Ji Heyuan then left with peace of mind, leaving only Jiang Jiang sitting alone in the front row, looking up at the clock above the blackboard, her eyes full of anticipation.

As class time approached, there were more and more people in the classroom. Everyone who entered the classroom would stare at Jiang Jiang for a few seconds.

Because everyone else had a preliminary understanding of each other, only Jiang Jiang was a new face in comparison.

Jiang Jiang could sense that they had no malice, so she smiled at everyone, and the other party would often return her a friendly smile.

It seemed that everyone was easy to get along with.

Just as Jiang Jiang was thinking, a commotion suddenly came from the back door of the classroom. She also turned her head to look with the others, but unexpectedly met a scrutinizing gaze looking at her.

Jiang Jiang had seen the class roster, and she knew that the name of the girl walking in the front among the girls who had just entered was He Xinyao.

He Xinyao wasn’t very tall, and her face was fairly pretty, but she always gave people a condescending feeling when she looked at people. Even when the girls next to her spoke to her, she would ignore them, and her eyes kept staring at Jiang Jiang without looking away.

Jiang Jiang clearly sensed He Xinyao’s dislike. The other woman’s disdain was almost blatant, yet Jiang Jiang couldn’t recall ever offending her.

He Xinyao…

Jiang Jiang suddenly thought of someone.

In fact, it wasn’t difficult to guess, after all, there were only a few people who didn’t get along with her, and she was someone who had dreamed of the original story of the novel, so she only needed to recall it a little to match He Xinyao with another person.

If Zheng Zhouzhou was the mastermind behind forcing “Xie Xiao” to death, Liang Junsheng was the accomplice who provided the murder weapon, then Zheng Zhouzhou’s several big fans were the perpetrators who held the knife.

The original story said that Zheng Zhouzhou’s fans almost blindly obeyed her words, especially the big fan who had liked her the longest. Every time Zheng Zhouzhou quarreled with other female stars, she would rush to the front.

She was the most useful knife in Zheng Zhouzhou’s hand. Jiang Jiang remembered that her Weibo name was [Yaoyao Who Loves to Drink Porridge.]

The original story didn’t mention her real identity too much. Jiang Jiang only knew that her family seemed to have quite a lot of assets and spent a lot of money for Zheng Zhouzhou.

Jiang Jiang had secretly searched for this Weibo name, and all the things posted inside were related to Zheng Zhouzhou.

If it wasn’t because He Xinyao’s name also happened to have the word Yao，Jiang Jiang might not have been able to associate her with [Yaoyao Who Loves to Drink Porridge] in the first time.

If He Xinyao was really her, then it would be too coincidental that they were classmates in the same class.

Thinking of this, Jiang Jiang suddenly understood why “Xie Xiao” in the story had no power to fight back.

The people who wanted to kill her were all the people who were closer to her. They hid in the dark, used the identity of friends to approach “Xie Xiao”. After winning her trust, they cruelly suppressed her, all while wearing a mask of kindness.

Why couldn’t “Xie Xiao” clarify the dirty water splashed on her?

Because those so-called “facts” weren’t completely false, they did come from her personal experience, but were deliberately twisted and manipulated to create a completely different narrative

Jiang Jiang already had a guess in her heart, but she didn’t show it on her face at all. She only stared at He Xinyao twice, and then turned her head to continue looking at the blackboard.

He Xinyao not knowing that she had been exposed, curled her lips, her gaze boring into Jiang Jiang’s back with almost tangible intensity.

This Xie Xiao looked like a scheming green tea white lotus at first glance, no wonder she always liked to stir up trouble, causing Zhouzhou to suffer several losses.

He Xinyao sat down in the back row and took out her phone to send a message to Zheng Zhouzhou.

[Yaoyao Who Loves to Drink Porridge: Zhouzhou! I’ve already seen that green tea girl, she really doesn’t look like a good person!]

After sending the message, He Xinyao kept staring at the phone screen, afraid of missing Zheng Zhouzhou’s reply.

After a long while, Zheng Zhouzhou replied to her.

[Zheng Zhouzhou: Actually, she’s not as bad as you think, we just don’t get along very well.]

When He Xinyao saw these words, the disgust for Jiang Jiang in her heart became even stronger.

Zhouzhou was too kind, Xie Xiao had bullied her like that, but she was still speaking up for Xie Xiao.

He Xinyao decided to do something to vent her anger for Zheng Zhouzhou.

…

This class was Wen Xueyun’s, and she arrived at the classroom two minutes before the class started.

Wen Xueyun hurried, and only stopped abruptly when she saw Jiang Jiang, “You’re back to class?”

She smiled at Jiang Jiang, “Does your leg still hurt?”

“It doesn’t hurt anymore.” Jiang Jiang also returned a shallow smile, “Thank you for your concern, Teacher Wen.”

“It’s good that you’re okay.” Wen Xueyun stopped the topic.

She walked to the podium and lowered her head to organize her computer and USB drive, but her thoughts drifted away.

No wonder I seemed to have seen Ji Xu’an’s car just now, I thought I had seen it wrong…

Jiang Jiang found these two classes very fulfilling. Wen Xueyun was humorous when lecturing, the atmosphere in the classroom wasn’t boring, and the students obviously liked her very much, and they were very active when answering questions.

Ten minutes before the end of class, Wen Xueyun assigned a group assignment and asked everyone to discuss it first.

Everyone else sat with their group members, only Jiang Jiang sat alone in the front row.

She wasn’t in a hurry, and slowly packed her things.

Seeing this, Wen Xueyun walked towards her and asked in a low voice, “Do you know who your group members are?”

Jiang Jiang shook her head, “No one told me.”

Wen Xueyun understood, and she flipped out the group list from her phone, “You’re in the same group as He Xinyao and them.”

As soon as Wen Xueyun finished speaking, Jiang Jiang heard someone call her name from behind.

“Xie Xiao!”

She turned her head to look, and He Xinyao was looking at her with her arms crossed not far away.

Seeing that Jiang Jiang had noticed her, He Xinyao raised her chin and said in a blaming tone, “Why aren’t you coming over?”

Other students also looked over after hearing the voice. For some reason, the atmosphere seemed to suddenly become a bit tense.

Jiang Jiang didn’t speak, but Wen Xueyun explained for her, “Xie Xiao has a leg injury, and it’s inconvenient for her to walk. Student He, why don’t you sit over here? There are still seats here.”

He Xinyao curled her lips, and her dissatisfaction was written all over her face, “Then why didn’t she say so? I thought she didn’t want to be in the same group as us.”

“If no one knew, others would think we were deliberately isolating her.”

From some point on, the discussion in the classroom quieted down, and everyone silently watched this scene.

Jiang Jiang was in the center of the storm, but her face didn’t show much panic. She closed her notebook, and her eyelashes drooped slightly when she spoke, as if she hadn’t understood He Xinyao’s implication at all.

“I’m sorry, Classmate He, I wanted to find you, but I have a lot of things, and I haven’t packed them yet.”

As she spoke, Jiang Jiang raised her eyes and said to Wen Xueyun, “Thank you, Teacher Wen, for helping me out, but it’s okay, I can walk slowly, I can’t let a group of them accommodate me alone.”

Some people had noticed Jiang Jiang’s actions of packing her things before, and they couldn’t help but nod at this time, feeling that Xie Xiao hadn’t done anything wrong.

She didn’t do it on purpose, and she couldn’t change the fact that she had a lot of things and a leg injury. She didn’t say she wouldn’t go, so why was He Xinyao rushing her so much?

He Xinyao was watched by everyone with strange eyes, and the anger in her heart burned more and more fiercely. She didn’t dare to confront Wen Xueyun, so she could only vent all her anger on Jiang Jiang.

“You’ve been sitting there for a long time without moving, how would I know if you were coming over?”

Hearing this, Wen Xueyun finally couldn’t help but frown, “Xie Xiao was hospitalized before, she doesn’t know about the group assignments, and even the group list was just given to her by me.”

“Student He Xinyao, if you’re not satisfied with the group assignments, you can say it directly, and I’ll arrange for Student Xie Xiao to go to another group.”

He Xinyao didn’t expect Wen Xueyun to speak up for Jiang Jiang again and again. Was she sick? Weren’t she and Xie Xiao rivals in love?

He Xinyao just wanted to secretly target Jiang Jiang, so that everyone would know that Jiang Jiang was a scheming bitch. Ironically, she ended up burning herself in the process.

“I’m not dissatisfied with the group assignments.” He Xinyao took a deep breath. She could look down on other people, but she didn’t want to offend the teacher just after the start of school.

“Teacher Wen, I didn’t know about Xie Xiao’s situation. I just misunderstood because she hadn’t come over for a long time.”

Hearing this, the smile on Wen Xueyun’s face finally returned, “It’s okay, it’s good to clear things up.”

She lowered her head and glanced at her watch, and said to the others, “It’s almost the end of class, you can prepare well on your own, see you next class~”

The storm passed just like that.

Seeing that Jiang Jiang, the person involved, didn’t say anything more, everyone else naturally treated it as if nothing had happened. However, a thought came to everyone’s mind.

He Xinyao didn’t look like she had an easy-going personality, Xie Xiao was quite pitiful, and she was assigned to a group with her.

Jiang Jiang put all the things in her bag, zipped it up, and looked up to see that He Xinyao was already standing in front of her.

He Xinyao looked down at her, with a fake smile on her face, “Classmate Xie Xiao, for the convenience of contact, let’s add each other as friends.”

Jiang Jiang took out her phone and scanned He Xinyao’s QR code. After successfully adding her as a friend, she clicked into He Xinyao’s Moments.

He Xinyao liked to post in Moments very much, and she could post five or six a day. Jiang Jiang hadn’t flipped through it twice when she saw a familiar nickname in a picture.

He Xinyao was indeed Zheng Zhouzhou’s big fan.

Seeing that Jiang Jiang seemed to be looking at something, and the interface was a bit familiar, He Xinyao leaned over to take a look, but Jiang Jiang put away her phone before she could see clearly.

He Xinyao’s face obviously sank, and she seemed to have thought of something, and her fingers quickly clicked on the screen a few times.

Jiang Jiang’s face was calm, “Classmate He, do you have anything else to say?”

He Xinyao snorted coldly, “No, we’ve already divided the work just now, and you’ll be doing the PPT, is that okay?”

Without waiting for Jiang Jiang to speak, He Xinyao continued, “I’ll send you the content of the PPT, and I hope you can finish it as soon as possible, don’t drag us down, okay?”

Jiang Jiang agreed, “Okay.”

He Xinyao got the answer she wanted and left without looking back.

She sneered as she walked, she had underestimated Xie Xiao, this scheming white lotus did have some tricks, she must have bullied Zhouzhou like this!

Next time, I will never give Xie Xiao a chance to turn the tables!

He Xinyao kept saying harsh words in her heart.

Behind her, Jiang Jiang watched her leave, her own eyes cold and indifferent.

She took out her phone again and clicked on He Xinyao’s Moments again, but found that she couldn’t see anything.

Jiang Jiang didn’t care, she had confirmed her guess, and now she only needed to guard against He Xinyao’s tricks.

Zheng Zhouzhou was able to get away unscathed last time, could she still get herself out of it this time?

After all, He Xinyao was different from Liang Junsheng, she was Zheng Zhouzhou’s fan, and everything she did came from Zheng Zhouzhou’s hints, so Zheng Zhouzhou couldn’t say she was innocent again.

Jiang Jiang believed that Zheng Zhouzhou was forced into a corner, otherwise He Xinyao’s attitude towards her wouldn’t be so bad, Zheng Zhouzhou must have said something to her.

Jiang Jiang walked out slowly with her bag, and was supported by Ji Heyuan who had rushed over after only a few steps.

“Why didn’t you wait for me?” Ji Heyuan took the things in her hand, “Someone was looking for me just now, so I was delayed for a while.”

Jiang Jiang smiled, “It’s okay, I can walk by myself.”

“Don’t, if you fall again, my sister will scold me to death.” Ji Heyuan replied casually.

“By the way, Xie Jiang Jiang, how do you feel today? You seem to be taking Sister Xueyun’s class, is her lecture interesting?”

Jiang Jiang hummed, “Teacher Wen is very good.”

As she spoke, her tone suddenly lowered, “But Xiao Yuan, I feel that some classmates don’t seem to like me very much.”

Ji Heyuan immediately frowned, “Who is it, which idiot is targeting you?”

Jiang Jiang bit her lip, her expression particularly tangled, “I don’t know if that counts as targeting, maybe I’m too sensitive and thinking too much.”

Under Ji Heyuan’s repeated questioning, Jiang Jiang told her what had just happened.

“Xiao Yuan, don’t tell Sister about this, I don’t want to bother her with these trivial matters.” Jiang Jiang curved the corners of her lips, “And with you accompanying me at school, even if she doesn’t like me, she can’t do anything.”

Ji Heyuan thought about it and it was true. She hadn’t seen He Xinyao yet, and couldn’t determine if she was deliberately targeting Jiang Jiang, so she decided against immediately telling her sister.

But instinctively, Ji Heyuan had a bit more dislike for He Xinyao.

“It’s okay, if she’s rude to you again, I’ll find someone to beat her up.”

Jiang Jiang was amused by her, “Okay.”

She smiled on her face, but she was thinking in her heart that she still had to find someone to investigate He Xinyao.

Jiang Jiang already had a suitable candidate in her heart!
