All the goddesses in the world are lusting after my body.

Even when she's alone in her room, Shi Xue, as a wife, still... cough cough, she's a maid!

It seems that Shi Xue subconsciously revealed her ambition!

262 Arranged Marriage

For some reason, Ren Qianning seemed to care a lot about Lilith.

Along the way, she, who was usually quiet and reserved, actually started to talk to Jiang Tang about Lilith.

Moreover, it is clearly targeted and specific.

For example, why would Lilith and Jiang Tang come out of the classroom together during evening self-study?

Why should we take her back to her dorm?

Why would you openly do that kind of thing at an intersection?

To get to the bottom of things, Jiang Tang needs to provide an explanation.

But more importantly, doesn't this mean that Ren Qianning witnessed the entire interaction between Jiang Tang and Lilith from beginning to end?

Even if it's about protection... there should be a limit, right?

Even Jiang Tang, who is usually quite thick-skinned, became a little embarrassed towards the end of the conversation and frankly said...

"Yes, sometimes, can you please respect my privacy?"

“But that was a public place.” Ren Qianning’s tone was cold, and her calm tone made it easier for people to get emotional. “When you decided to do that kind of thing, didn’t you already stop caring about what other people thought?”

Ren Qianning was right. Even if she had no relation to Jiang Tang and was just a passerby, she could still have seen that scene.

"..." Now it was Jiang Tang's turn to be speechless.

On the contrary, Ren Qianning started talking more and became increasingly serious.

"In Jiangtang, a free and open atmosphere permeates every corner of society, but this is not necessarily a good thing."

"Freedom is not indulgence, and openness can also lead to moral decay."

"Although Lilith is a very nice girl, you still need to be wary. She may be a sugar-coated bullet that the Western world is trying to use against you."

This was the first time Jiang Tang had ever heard Ren Qianning lecture him.

He gradually figured it out.

Ren Qianning's concern for Lilith's existence is likely related to the closeness of her relationship with her.

After all, judging from the current situation, among the women who clearly have ulterior motives towards Jiang Tang, that is, the girls who started to pursue him because of his perfect gene identity, only Lilith has achieved significant success.

Even the discerning Jiang Tang couldn't deny that he had indeed fallen for this "big-breasted, brainless" woman.

Jiang Tang guarantees that he is using the phrase "big breasts, no brains" in a positive sense.

Having large breasts goes without saying; it's an advantage that many women would envy.

The saying goes, "If you can't see her toes when you look down, you're a peerless beauty." Lilith is just too perfect.

As for being brainless, it refers to a girl who becomes silly in love, which is quite adorable.

After all, in a relationship, the more shrewd you are, the more pressure your partner may feel; the more clumsy you are, the more likely you are to receive care and attention from your partner.

But the premise is that it's an adorable clumsiness caused by being blinded by love, not the kind of fake foolishness or childishness that comes from pretending, which would only make people dislike you.

It's obvious that Lilith belongs to the type of idiot who's obsessed with love; she's practically a special attack on Jiang Tang.

What man could resist a blonde, big-breasted woman who's kind and naive to you?

Ren Qianning noticed this, which is why she appeared at just the right time tonight, perhaps out of a sense of responsibility, or perhaps for some other reason, to offer Jiang Tang some advice.

Only at times like this would Jiang Tang suddenly remember that she was actually a soldier, and also a special agent sent by the military region to protect Jiang Tang, naturally bearing a certain sense of responsibility and mission.

She naturally considers things one, two, or even three steps ahead of the average person.

If you think about it too much, you might feel that everyone is like a multi-layered cake, with a thousand layers of tricks.

Girls like Lilith wouldn't travel across the ocean just to find love.

If Jiang Tang, as a high-quality human being valued by the nation, is corrupted and degenerate by Western liberal ideas, then it would be a serious dereliction of duty on her part as his protector.

Now it seems that Jiang Tang has indeed been corrupted, transforming from that innocent young man into someone who, after being tempted by blond, wavy hair, can't resist kissing on the street...

But is Ren Qianning sure her impression is accurate?

When did Jiang Tang start looking like an innocent young man...?

Ren Qianning's words were like a veiled threat being revealed.

Although Jiang Tang understood what she meant, he still responded rather rebelliously.

"If Lilith is a sugar-coated bullet launched by the West to bewitch me."

"Then all I can say is that I hope there will be more of these sugar-coated bullets."

Jiang Tang was quite confident. He could say that no matter how many girls the other side sent, it would be like "throwing meat buns to a dog, never to return." Jiang Tang would never betray his nation and country.

But this analogy seems a bit strange. What does "throwing a meat bun to a dog" mean? Wouldn't that mean I'm... cough cough!

Despite saying that, Jiang Tang was still somewhat dissatisfied with Ren Qianning's lecture tonight, so he suppressed a little anger and asked her.

"Regardless of whether Lilith is a sugar-coated bullet from the West, the West is willing to pay the price for Lilith, so what about us?"

"So far, I haven't seen any benefits. I even earned my scholarship penny by penny through my own ability."

Jiang Tang may not have been particularly dissatisfied; he simply wanted to protect Lilith from the bottom of his heart, so he casually threw the label that Ren Qianning had put on him back.

Ren Qianning frowned slightly.

"What do you take the country for? Do you think we'll arrange marriages for you and assign you girls to be with you every day...?"

Before Jiang Tang could respond, the words had barely left his mouth.

For some reason, Ren Qianning suddenly blushed.

Her pupils dilated, and her slender, fair fingers gripped the hem of her hoodie tightly.

That was the first time Jiang Tang had ever caught a glimpse of the rare emotion called "shyness" on Ren Qianning's usually expressionless face.

Ren Qianning finally realized that the country had indeed designated a girl to accompany Jiang Tang day and night.

That girl...it's her!

If Ren Qianning had paid close attention, she would have noticed that on the day she accepted the mission to protect Jiang Tang, General Liu of the military region, who was also a comrade-in-arms of Ren Qianning's father, patted Ren Qianning on the shoulder and gave her a mysterious smile that seemed to hold a lot of expectations.

Why let the good stuff go to outsiders?

Perhaps General Liu was indeed thinking this way, hoping that his comrade's daughter could find a good home.

Unfortunately, Ren Qianning is not very good at reading people's expressions.

She had never thought about this at all, and had always regarded Jiang Tang as someone to carry out missions.

The execution object is not an object!

If General Liu knew that his comrade's daughter was so clueless, he would probably be so angry that he would slap his thigh.

Jiang Tang quickly realized this as well.

After all, Ren Qianning's words were hard not to make people think.

For a moment, the two fell silent, averting their gazes and refusing to look at each other.

The atmosphere between Jiang Tang and Ren Qianning also underwent a very subtle and ambiguous change.

Fortunately, Ren Qianning's current place was soon reached. It was a former student dormitory of Tianfu University. Due to years of disrepair, it had been abandoned after students moved into new dormitories a few years ago.

It's really tough on Ren Qianning to live in a place like this.

Jiang Tang gazed at the somewhat dilapidated building in front of him and thought to himself.

But for Ren Qianning, this living environment is already quite good, compared to her past experiences.

Now that he had delivered her here, Jiang Tang considered his mission of taking Ren Qianning home complete. He hesitated for a moment, then prepared to say goodbye.

At this moment, Ren Qianning spoke first, and at the same time reached out to brush away the silver strands of hair by her ear.

Please don't take what I just said to heart.

"Uh-huh."

"I'm so sorry to have troubled you to take me back to my dorm because of my little bit of whim."

Ren Qianning couldn't deny that it was because she saw Jiang Tang taking Lilith back to her apartment that she suddenly had an impulse to have Jiang Tang take her home.

I also want to experience... what it's like to have a boyfriend.

This was her undeniable personal motive.

Although in the end, she didn't have any particularly special feelings about the experience, after all, Ren Qianning isn't love-obsessed.

But looking back, chatting with Jiang Tang along the way, not being as lonely as before, and having my shadow as a companion, was actually quite nice.

Perhaps its greatest value lies in this warmth that makes it feel neither lonely nor isolated, and it is also a beautiful memory for many people during their student days.

"It's okay, it's not far."

Jiang Tang blinked his long-lashed eyes, and the shadows cast by them in the moonlight made his face appear both elegant and mysterious.

"Well... I'm leaving."

"Okay, goodbye."

As soon as they finished speaking, one of them moved forward and the other backward, like two lines that intersected but were destined to separate.

After taking a few steps, Ren Qianning, driven by some unknown emotion, suddenly turned around, thinking that even seeing only a back view was better than having nothing in front of her...

To her surprise, Jiang Tang also turned around at that very moment.

The two looked at each other from a distance.

Only then did Jiang Tang realize how clear Ren Qianning's eyes were, how slender her body wasn't so strong, and how her fair legs even seemed fragile in the cold wind, revealing her delicate, girlish nature.

Her maturity stemmed more from bearing a heavy burden than from being worldly-wise or sophisticated.

Ren Qianning's gaze trembled slightly, like pond water disturbed by swimming fish, or like the moon shrouded in mist.

Jiang Tang was about to say something, but Ren Qianning had already turned around and fled into the dormitory building, attempting to hide away and live in seclusion.
