When An Ancient Chinese Romance Novel Heroine Transmigrated Into A Lesbian Novel - Chapter 64

A few bodyguards had probably been instructed in advance. After seeing Ji Xu’an’s face clearly, one of them reached out and pushed open the door of the private room.

Of the two bodyguards Ji Xu’an brought, one remained outside the door, while the other turned and walked in the direction they had come from.

Secretary Zhao followed Ji Xu’an into the private room. As soon as he entered, his brows couldn’t help but furrow tightly. Secretary Zhao subconsciously turned his head to look at Ji Xu’an, and sure enough, he found that Ji Xu’an’s expression was also very cold.

Not for anything else, but because Secretary Zhao was very familiar with the two people sitting in the private room.

One of them was Zheng Zhouzhou, and the other was a tall, blue-eyed, blond foreign man, who was considered a deadly rival of Linghai Group, and had several unpleasant incidents with Ji Xu’an herself.

“Arkle.”

Just as Secretary Zhao was thinking about when this person had come to Z Country, Ji Xu’an, who was on the side, had already spoken his name in a flat tone.

At the same time, Arkle’s low laughter rang out.

“Long time no see, Eucalypt.” Arkle said in fluent Chinese, with particularly standard pronunciation.

As he spoke, he shrugged at Ji Xu’an, “The last time we met was in June, right?”

“It’s been a few months, I miss you very much. But looking at your expression, you don’t seem to be particularly welcoming to me.” Arkle sighed helplessly at the end.

Just listening to his tone, those who didn’t know would have thought that the relationship between him and Ji Xu’an was very good.

Ji Xu’an turned her head and gave Secretary Zhao a look, then turned around and walked out, without saying an extra word, and without replying to Arkle’s teasing.

Secretary Zhao smiled and said to Arkle, “Mr. Zhou, Miss Zheng, why don’t we sit down and have some tea first? President Ji suddenly has some urgent matters to deal with, and it may take a while.”

Arkle’s mother was a Z Country person, surnamed Zhou, so he also had a Chinese name from his mother’s surname. Secretary Zhao called him Mr. Zhou, deliberately reminding him that he was in Z Country after all, and S City could be said to be Ji Xu’an’s territory, hoping he wouldn’t do anything stupid.

Arkle raised his eyebrows, “Suddenly has some urgent matters?”

He chuckled, seemingly not noticing Zheng Zhouzhou’s somewhat stiff face, and even ignoring Secretary Zhao’s subtle reminder, but said directly, “Is Eucalypt worried that I will be detrimental to her little fiancée?”

Secretary Zhao smiled good-naturedly, “You’re overthinking it.”

“President Ji wouldn’t think that way, and I believe even more that you wouldn’t do such a thing.”

Arkle smiled without saying a word. He picked up the teacup and took a sip, his eyes narrowed slightly, “Eucalypt really doesn’t have any trust in me, I’m so sad.”

He said this, but there was no trace of sadness on his face. Zheng Zhouzhou, who was on the side, felt restless listening to his strange tone.

This person looked gentle and polite on the surface, but in reality, he had a deep relationship with the M Country’s gang organization, and had even personally killed subordinates who had betrayed him.

The reason why Zheng Zhouzhou knew was because Ji Xu’an had almost been kidnapped by Arkle in her previous life. Although Ji Xu’an had successfully escaped later, her arm was shot by Arkle with a gun, almost injuring the bone.

Zheng Zhouzhou’s sugar daddy at that time didn’t know where he had heard about this matter, and casually mentioned a few words in front of Zheng Zhouzhou, and Zheng Zhouzhou secretly remembered Arkle’s appearance.

Two days ago, Zheng Zhouzhou secretly ran away from home. She already knew that Ji Xu’an was having people follow her. The reason why everything had been going wrong for her recently was all thanks to Ji Xu’an.

Zheng Zhouzhou was unwilling to accept this. She wanted to make one last effort. If it really didn’t work, she could only use her biggest secret to make a deal with Ji Xu’an.

This was a last resort, because Zheng Zhouzhou wasn’t sure if Ji Xu’an would believe her. Maybe Ji Xu’an would treat her like a lunatic and forcibly send her to a mental hospital.

If that day really came, it would be even harder for Zheng Zhouzhou to escape.

She was so anxious that her hair was falling out in handfuls.

That useless Ji Heyuan couldn’t help at all. Ji Xu’an had already pushed her to this point, but Ji Heyuan still insisted that her sister wasn’t doing it on purpose.

Zheng Zhouzhou didn’t know what to do.

Meeting Arkle was purely accidental. Even Zheng Zhouzhou herself felt it was very sudden.

She just saw someone on the street who looked very much like Arkle, so she casually called out his name. She didn’t expect it to actually be Arkle himself, and even more didn’t expect him to hear Zheng Zhouzhou’s voice and be so vigilant that he had people kidnap Zheng Zhouzhou back that day.

The people Ji Xu’an sent to monitor her were also controlled by Arkle. After Arkle asked about the grievances between her and Ji Xu’an, he immediately generously offered to help her.

Zheng Zhouzhou wasn’t sure how he could help. She was tempted to fight back, but worried she was playing with fire, as Arkle seemed to have no regard for human life.

Just as she was caught in this dilemma, not knowing how to choose, Ji Xu’an happened to tell her the news that He Xinyao had sneaked into Liang Junsheng’s hospital room.

He Xinyao was Zheng Zhouzhou’s big fan, and the two often contacted each other privately. If what He Xinyao did was exposed on the internet, Zheng Zhouzhou wouldn’t be able to escape being cyberbullied.

Zheng Zhouzhou was very scared, and with a ruthless heart, she agreed to Arkle’s proposal.

She couldn’t fight Ji Xu’an, but Arkle definitely had a way.

At that time, Zheng Zhouzhou even had a new idea. She was someone with past life memories, and knew more than these two people. Why couldn’t she sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight?

Arkle was crazy, otherwise he wouldn’t have kidnapped Ji Xu’an in the later stages, but Ji Xu’an wasn’t a pushover either. The strength of these two people was evenly matched, and neither could shake the other’s foundation.

But if she was there, maybe the situation would be different.

Zheng Zhouzhou weighed it and felt that Ji Xu’an was relatively safer, at least Ji Xu’an didn’t kill people.

Her plan was to first appease Arkle, then secretly collaborate with Ji Xu’an. If Ji Xu’an invested in her career, she could help take down Arkle in return.

Zheng Zhouzhou’s thoughts were quite beautiful, but she didn’t expect to fail in the first step. Arkle simply refused to let her meet with Ji Xu’an alone, and insisted on coming along.

That’s why Zheng Zhouzhou was so anxious; she wasn’t sure how to reveal this to Ji Xu’an. I couldn’t just tell Ji Xu’an about my rebirth in front of Arkle.

Arkle would definitely send me to the laboratory.

Zheng Zhouzhou shivered.

…

Ji Xu’an didn’t go too far.

She herself wasn’t afraid of Arkle, but as Arkle said, Ji Xu’an didn’t trust his character, and she was worried that Arkle would take the opportunity to attack Jiang Jiang.

The dialed call wasn’t answered immediately. Listening to the busy tone in the phone, Ji Xu’an’s expression became more and more tense, and the worry in her heart grew stronger and stronger.

She hoped that Jiang Jiang was just eating at this time, which was why she didn’t answer her phone.

…

What was Jiang Jiang doing?

They didn’t have classes this morning, but went to the auditorium to hold a military training mobilization meeting, which ended at a little after 10:40.

He Qingqing sent Jiang Jiang a message, asking her and Fu Xihe to go to the Hanfu Association’s office to pick up things.

The results of the several rounds of interviews last Friday had already come out, and Jiang Jiang had successfully passed the interview as expected.

Ji Heyuan had other things to do, so she had no choice but to separate from Jiang Jiang.

Jiang Jiang and Fu Xihe chatted as they walked. The Hanfu Association’s office was located on the first floor of the Science and Technology Innovation Park. Not many people came here, and the surroundings became quieter and quieter as they walked.

After picking up the things, the two were originally going to the cafeteria, but Fu Xihe suddenly received a call. After saying goodbye to Jiang Jiang, she left in a hurry.

Jiang Jiang had no choice but to walk towards the cafeteria alone.

There weren’t no people on this road. There were still a few students walking together in the distance.

Not far away, Jiang Jiang suddenly heard a very light sound of footsteps a few meters away from her. She glanced out of the corner of her eye, and what appeared behind her was a woman wearing a white long dress.

The woman didn’t look at Jiang Jiang, but kept looking down at her phone, but Jiang Jiang inexplicably had a feeling – she felt that the other party was coming for her.

To get to the cafeteria, people had to turn and pass through a small road. Both sides of the roads at S University were planted with trees, and this area was relatively remote. If the other party wanted to do something, this was the most suitable place to start.

Thinking of this, Jiang Jiang’s footsteps couldn’t help but quicken a bit.

The woman also seemed to speed up her pace. Jiang Jiang’s figure had only disappeared around the corner for two or three seconds when the woman followed.

According to the information we had obtained, this girl named Xie Xiao had not received any training, her body was thin and weak, and she didn’t have much strength. I alone was enough to deal with her.

The woman was calm and composed, and was already thinking about how to take Xie Xiao away later.

Only this section of the road was a blind spot for surveillance, and her car was parked nearby.

In order not to alert the enemy, only she had come in. The others were waiting for her outside the school.

Later, she only needed to knock Xie Xiao unconscious and take her to the agreed location.

In the woman’s imagination, this should be a very easy thing. She alone was more than enough, and it was even a bit of an overkill.

But she never expected that after walking out of the corner, what greeted her wasn’t Xie Xiao’s terrified face, but a menacing tree branch.

This tree branch wasn’t thick, looking at most the thickness of a finger, but the sound of the wind when it broke through the air was alarming. The woman could even imagine what kind of scars it would cause when it landed on a person.

She dodged with slight surprise, thinking that the target was more perceptive than she thought, but unfortunately too naive, not only did she not run away immediately, but also tried to counterattack her.

The woman sighed regretfully in her heart, thinking that Xie Xiao would soon understand that her choice was a big mistake.

At this time, the woman had not realized that just a few minutes later, the person who understood that everything was a big mistake was actually herself.

Missing with one strike, Jiang Jiang didn’t find it strange.

This tree branch was something she had just picked up from the ground, not straight enough and not thick enough, but it was enough to be used as a weapon for self-defense temporarily.

She didn’t give the woman much time to react. This section of the tree branch was used by her as a long sword. The woman had just twisted her body to dodge when Jiang Jiang’s next move was already in front of her.

The woman retreated again in a hurry. She hadn’t even found a chance to strike, and could only dodge blindly.

Failing to hit with two moves, Jiang Jiang thought to herself that her swordsmanship had declined, but the woman was slightly annoyed by Jiang Jiang’s continuous attacks.

The prey, who was originally thought to be weak and vulnerable, had actually forced me to retreat repeatedly.

The woman frowned and also took a ruthless hand, clenching her hands into fists and swinging them at Jiang Jiang.

Jiang Jiang tilted her head to dodge, and the broken hair beside her ear swayed slightly from the force of the fist. She secretly concentrated her mind and gathered her energy, finally finding a chance to get close.

While dodging the fist swung by the woman, Jiang Jiang’s wrist turned quickly, and a palm wrapped in inner strength hit the other person’s left shoulder quickly, accurately, and ruthlessly.

The woman’s body flew backward uncontrollably, like a leaf falling from a branch, with almost no resistance.

In the blink of an eye, her body slammed heavily on the ground. When her back came into contact with the ground, it even made a muffled sound.

“Fuck!”

The woman cursed subconsciously. Her whole body was numb. The pain in her back was secondary. The main thing was her left shoulder. That piercing pain felt as if even the bones had been shattered, making it difficult to even move.

The woman coughed with difficulty, feeling the blood churning in her chest, almost coughing up blood.

Her reaction wasn’t slow. Even though she was already very uncomfortable, she still quickly got up, staring wide-eyed at Jiang Jiang with surprise and uncertainty.

What exactly had just happened?!

I was knocked away by this thin girl with a palm strike?!

Like in a TV series, even though the pain in her body reminded her that what had just happened wasn’t a dream, the woman still found it hard to believe.

She subconsciously reached back to touch her lower back, but her hand touched empty air. The woman suddenly looked at Jiang Jiang, her eyes particularly sharp and piercing.

Jiang Jiang stood a few steps away from the woman. Seeing the woman staring straight at her, Jiang Jiang took out her left hand, which was behind her back.

“Are you looking for this?” Jiang Jiang asked.

In her outstretched palm was a small silver gun.

A wry smile touched the woman’s lips. The pain in her chest and the missing gun were stark reminders of their faulty intelligence, and the price she’d paid for underestimating her opponent.

“Can we talk properly now?” Jiang Jiang said calmly.

“Who sent you here?”
