To marry into the family in place of his brother? Impossible!
Chapter 270 Zhang Nan fell into the water!
Suppressing the strange feeling in his heart, Jiang Jinhuan focused his attention on Zhao Wan'er again.
"Sister Wan'er, when you said 'don't go too far,' you mean I can go a little too far?"
Zhao Wan'er said irritably, "You sure know how to make excuses for yourself!"
Jiang Jinhuan lowered his head and leaned close to her ear, his breath brushing against her earlobe. "You've been ignoring me lately, so I have to find some sense of presence myself."
You've been ignoring me these past few days, did Zhang Nan say something to you?
Zhao Wan'er paused for a moment, then quickly resumed her pace, forcing herself to keep a cold expression as she said, "You don't need to know."
He spoke in a fierce tone, but his arms tightened around Jiang Jinhuan, subtly suggesting that he was taking the initiative.
Indeed, Zhao Wan'er was never the kind of woman who was timid and submissive. She dared to love and hate, was bold and unrestrained by nature, and did whatever she thought of.
If you know Zhao Wan'er, you'll know that she's no longer angry at this point.
Her actions just now were clearly a declaration of her sovereignty!
Jiang Jinhuan knew he had guessed correctly.
Zhang Nan must have said something to Zhao Wan'er.
Most of his interactions with Zhang Nan took place at school, meaning they were related to school matters.
As for the school incident, the biggest one was the last time Zhang Nan falsely accused him of being a kept man and having an ambiguous relationship with Chen Ling Shuang.
Jiang Jinhuan thought to himself, "As expected, this is all Zhang Nan is good for!"
However, he didn't want to explain anything.
Because his relationship with Chen Ling Shuang was already somewhat complicated.
In high school, I didn't know, but during college, she genuinely brought me meals for two years, even though she always managed to steal them and I never got to eat a single bite.
But this affection is genuine.
Now it's even more complicated, even though I've shown that I just want to be ordinary friends.
But it's clear that Chen Ling Shuang doesn't think that way.
Recalling his wrist injury and the night Chen Ling Shuang took care of him, he truly doesn't know how to face Chen Ling Shuang and this relationship.
Jiang Jinhuan snapped out of his daze and his gaze fell on Zhao Wan'er's face.
Looking at her turned profile, her fair neck was taut under the light, and the tips of her ears were faintly red.
Zhao Wan'er still didn't say anything, but her dance moves were perfectly coordinated with his.
She tightened her arms around his shoulder slightly, not as if she disliked him.
When the song ended, Jiang Jinhuan's hand was still on her waist.
Zhao Wan'er didn't try to break free; she just stood there without saying a word or refusing.
Jiang Jinhuan said with a mischievous grin, "Sister Wan'er, are you still not willing to let go of me?"
Zhao Wan'er glared at Jiang Jinhuan: "It's clearly you who won't let go, so let go right now!"
Although her words carried a scolding tone, she tightened her grip on Jiang Jinhuan's shoulder, as if she wanted to pull him into her arms.
Everyone around watched this scene with great interest.
Many more people looked at Zhang Nan beside him with amused expressions!
Some of them had always believed that Zhao Wan'er ultimately chose Zhang Nan.
But now it seems that's not the case!
Some people looked at Zhang Nan as if he were a clown!
Zhang Nan finally snapped.
He strode up from the edge of the dance floor, grabbed Jiang Jinhuan's wrist, and yanked him hard, yelling, "Let go of me!"
Jiang Jinhuan stumbled as he was pulled, and his foot 'just happened' to step on the wet, slippery tiles by the pool.
Zhang Nan seemed to lose his balance instantly, either due to excessive force or because of Jiang Jinhuan's 'unintentional' tug.
The two fell backward almost simultaneously, making two loud splashes that sent large sprays of water flying into the pool.
The audience gasped in surprise.
Zhao Wan'er's mind went blank for a moment. Without even taking off her shoes, she rushed into the pool.
The velvet dress suddenly became heavy in the water. She struggled to swim towards Jiang Jin Huan, and in her panic, the diamond necklace broke off, the tiny sparks sinking to the bottom.
She grabbed Jiang Jinhuan's arm, her voice trembling, "Are you alright?"
Jiang Jinhuan stood in chest-deep water, looking at Zhao Wan'er's panicked face, and his heart trembled slightly for no reason.
Zhao Wan'er's hair was disheveled, her makeup was ruined, and her dress was soaking wet and clung to her body. She looked completely different from the noble and aloof Zhao family heiress she usually was.
She looked at herself with panic and fear in her eyes, but she didn't know what she was afraid of.
Jiang Jinhuan suppressed his anger, looked at her hand gripping his arm tightly, and then at Zhang Nan, who was still thrashing about and swallowing several mouthfuls of water beside him: "Sister Wan'er, Zhang Nan is drowning."
Zhao Wan'er was stunned for a moment.
She followed Jiang Jinhuan's gaze and saw Zhang Nan struggling on the surface of the water, splashing water everywhere, her hands and feet flailing about, and choking on water as she made muffled cries for help.
At that moment, a security guard jumped in and pulled Zhang Nan ashore.
Zhao Wan'er's expression changed for a moment.
She released Jiang Jinhuan's arm, turned to look at Zhang Nan, and a scrutinizing look flashed in her eyes.
She stood in the water, her soaked long dress dripping wet.
His entire aura turned icy cold!
At this moment, Zhao Wan'er's gaze towards Zhang Nan had lost its usual gentleness.
She clenched her fists tightly, her whole body trembling.
Then she turned her head and glanced at Jiang Jinhuan.
At this moment, Jiang Jin Huan was not looking at Zhao Wan'er, but at Zhang Nan, so he left Zhang Wan'er with a side profile.
Just like the scene when he rescued Zhao Wan'er from drowning at the villa on the hillside.
Zhao Wan'er's pupils contracted sharply as the scene in her memory perfectly overlapped with the scene before her eyes.
She murmured softly, "So, it really was you who saved me back then, but you're too afraid to admit it?"
Jiang Jinhuan froze, turning to look at Zhao Wan'er. "Sister Wan'er, what did you say?"
Zhao Wan'er's eyes were filled with rage.
"Jiang Jinhuan, fine, you're very good!" Zhao Wan'er snorted coldly and went ashore without looking back.
Jiang Jinhuan touched his nose: "Has this given us away?"
After getting ashore, Zhao Wan'er gave Zhang Nan, who had been rescued, a cold look, then glanced at Jiang Jin Huan, and turned away!
Jiang Jinhuan looked at Zhao Wan'er walking away with some confusion. Did she see through it or not?
Zhang Nan was taken to the hospital.
Although it's nothing serious, it's still necessary to go to the hospital for a check-up.
Jiang Jin Huan, on the other hand, was ignored by everyone after he went ashore.
He thought to himself, since he had achieved his goal, he might as well leave.
But he was stopped at the door. "Mr. Jiang, your clothes are wet. Please change into something clean before going back!"
Jiang Jin Huan went back to change his clothes, and the clothes fit perfectly, as if they had been prepared in advance.
However, he did not see Zhao Wan'er during this period.
She probably went to the hospital to see Zhang Nan, right? After all, the incident happened while she was there!
The banquet obviously couldn't continue and had to end abruptly.
Jiang Jinhuan changed his clothes and said to the butler, "Please thank your young lady for me. I'll be leaving now!"
Jiang Jinhuan turned and left the manor.
