She accidentally flirted with the villain and was fiercely criticized as the regent for forcibly mar

Walk a little further away.

Ruan Zhenzhen spoke up again indignantly: "I've never seen anyone more disgusting than her. You were speaking up for her this morning, and the moment she turned around, she stole your poem to show off, stepping on you to become the champion! And you're so kind-hearted, you didn't expose her!"

Chu Jin shook her head and said seriously, "She definitely didn't steal my poem today."

Ruan Zhenzhen didn't believe it: "With a brain like hers, she couldn't possibly come up with anything!"

Chu Jin was helpless.

Once they were in a secluded spot, he stopped her and said sternly, "There are no outsiders here. Why would I need to lie to you?"

Ruan Zhenzhen was stunned.

No!

Is this really a poem written by some incompetent fool?

So what is her "revenge" today?

Are you deliberately trying to cause trouble?

Chu Jin sighed, "I know it's hard for you to believe, but she really has changed. All those troubles she caused over the years were just to get her aunt's attention. Now she's utterly disappointed in her aunt, she doesn't want to cause any more trouble, she's calmed down, and her intelligence has naturally returned."

Ruan Zhenzhen was stunned.

I think of myself when I was a child.

She had tried to get her father's attention before, even making a scene and arguing. Her stepmother was a master of manipulation, able to fool her father completely, but she couldn't convince him of her stepmother's wickedness, which led to her becoming hysterical.

Her father gradually grew impatient with her, and she became utterly disappointed in him.

Perhaps it's because I empathize with her, but suddenly I don't dislike Jiang Ruining as much anymore, but later...

Seeing that she seemed hesitant and conflicted, Chu Jin asked her gently, "What's wrong?"

Ruan Zhenzhen hesitated for a moment, then shook her head and said, "Thinking about all the troubles at home makes me a little annoyed." She added, "If she really is willing to change, it's always a good thing."

Chu Jin had known her for five or six years: "Your stepmother, is she causing trouble again?"

Ruan Zhenzhen sighed in frustration, "The only way to keep her in line is for her to die. You have no idea..."

The two talked as they walked further and further away.

In the private room.

Jiang Ruining sat down and drank two cups of tea, but didn't wait for Chu Jin to return.

I'm afraid something might happen to her.

They came out together after all. If something happens, even if she wasn't the one who was injured, given Madam Jiang's erratic behavior, she'll hold her accountable. Madam Jiang is the matriarch of the Jiang family and, more importantly, her birth mother. She has plenty of legitimate ways to deal with her.

She'll be the one who suffers in the end!

"Yunmi, go and see if anything has happened?"

Yunmi immediately went out to look for the person.

result.

They were gone forever.

Jiang Ruining couldn't sit still any longer, so she got up and went to find the person herself.

I almost bumped into a man as soon as I stepped out the door.

In an attempt to avoid a collision, I tripped over the threshold while backing up and nearly fell flat on my face.

Fortunately, she reached out quickly and grabbed the door frame, managing to steady herself.

The other person offered a slight gesture of support, saying, "I'm sorry, it was my rudeness. Are you hurt, Miss Jiang?"

acquaintance?

After Jiang Ruining regained her footing, she looked up.

The first thing that caught the eye was a young man with fair skin and delicate features. He had a high nose bridge and slightly upturned phoenix eyes that seemed to hold a hint of a smile. He wore a light blue silk shirt with a transparent overcoat embroidered with bamboo leaves. He exuded the gentle and refined air of a scion of a noble family.

While not as alluring and captivating as Xiao Che, she is definitely in the "good-looking" category.

He was Zhao Shuyun, the son of the Zhao family, who was the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel.

He entered officialdom through the hereditary title bestowed by his ancestors and now holds a fourth-rank position in the Ministry of Revenue. He is highly regarded by his superiors and is quite talented and courageous.

One of Chu Jin's admirers.

After learning that Chu Jin and the male lead Shao Yunting had confessed their feelings for each other, he did not pester her or scheme against her. Instead, he was willing to pave the way for her silently in places where she could not see.

"fine."

Zhao Shuyun then continued, her tone tinged with anxiety: "Miss Chu was harassed and injured. As a man, I couldn't interfere, so I came to find you. She's right here..."

He pointed towards the backyard of the restaurant.

As if afraid of making things unclear and wasting time, he simply led the way himself.

"Come with me!"

Jiang Ruining was worried that Chu Jin would be taken advantage of, so she quickly followed.

After winding and turning for quite a while.

We arrived at the restaurant's back garden.

Zhao Shuyun stopped and pointed to the house across the zigzag bridge: "It's the second one over there. It's inconvenient for me to go there, Miss Jiang, please go quickly!"

Jiang Ruining nodded and quickly walked towards the house.

Push open the door.

There was no sound from inside.

Just as he was about to turn around...

She saw a shadow looming over the sunlit ground, a stick clutched in a raised hand!

Just as the stick was about to strike, she nimbly dodged it and quickly threw a handful of powder at the attacker.

Amidst the flying dust.

She grabbed a stool and smashed it down on the other person.

"You pervert! How dare you ambush your grandma! I'll beat you so badly you won't even know your own name!"

The other person didn't even have time to utter a sound before collapsing heavily to the ground.

When Jiang Ruining saw the other person's face clearly, her blood instantly froze, and the sharp ice shards pierced her internal organs, causing her excruciating pain.

It's him!

That bastard who harmed the original owner in the book!

The original owner's despair and screams at that time were like a surging wave crashing over her, pressing her down into the deep water. The bone-chilling hatred burned through her veins and spread throughout her body. Her eyes turned bloodshot, and she raised the stool and smashed it down again and again until the other person's head was bleeding and he could not struggle at all!

"You son of a bitch, you dare bully a girl! Today I'll show you what karma is!"

The final kick was a powerful strike at the root of all evil.

The other person's body suddenly arched and tensed to the extreme. With a shudder, their eyes rolled back, and they fainted instantly.

Jiang Ruining put the stool down, squatted down, and searched around. Sure enough, she found a paper package.

It was trembling.

Even though they had already avoided the plot where Chu Jin was molested and found out that it wasn't the original owner who drugged her, this disgusting plot still came at her!

The panic and hatred in my heart are indescribable.

"That's disgusting!"

She stood up.

The movement was a bit too sudden, and the blood supply was insufficient. A sudden throbbing pain and blacking out occurred before my eyes, and I lost my balance and fell backward.

Just as Jiang Ruining was closing her eyes to brace for the pain, a warm and strong arm firmly gripped her waist. The force was so great that it was obvious it belonged to a man, but his hand did not touch her body, showing no sign of frivolity.

I breathed a sigh of relief and quickly steadied myself to express my gratitude.

When I looked up, I was met with a pair of gentle, smiling eyes.

Jiang Ruining was taken aback.

Speechless!

Why is it Shao Yunting again!

Is he very free?

Why bother trying to get close to the female lead instead of trying to meet her?

Slow!

Did he just see himself beating someone like a madman?

"When did you get here?"
