The world doesn't need succubi to save it.

Looking at the face he remembered most clearly, Ning Feng's expression faltered slightly. Instead of the excitement of a reunion, he sighed speechlessly.

“Who reads a eulogy in front of a patient who has just recovered from a serious illness? In a sense, this is bullying.”

Does it count?

"Of course it counts!"

Are you deliberately picking a fight?!

Jiang Wan laughed after seeing Ning Feng's speechless expression. Her originally mature demeanor softened considerably in her smiling eyes.

"I don't think it's too much; there's still a funeral dirge playing."

Jiang Wan took out her phone and waved the "Complete Collection of Funeral Music" she had prepared in front of Ning's cover. She smiled and looked at his speechless expression.

Ning's confused face - sealed. JPG

Okay, whatever you say.

With a shrug and a spread of his hands, Ning Feng silently conveyed through his body language: Fine, you're right. If that's how you think, then there's nothing I can do.

Unfortunately, this provocative statement, which would have instantly raised his girlfriend's blood pressure to the brink of death and made her want to tear him apart, had no effect.

Because they are not a couple, not even in a flirtatious relationship.

Jiang Wan didn't care, and even laughed at Ning Feng's silent protest.

But this does not mean that the two have a bad relationship; on the contrary, the bond they have forged through mutual dependence is very strong.

They depend on each other for survival, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, childhood sweethearts—how pleasing to the ear they sound!

However, these two, who seemed like a perfect match to everyone, abandoned their promising romance and instead, after years of spending time together, happily drifted into a brotherhood relationship...

Screw love, loyalty comes first!

This is why Ning Feng wasn't worried and planned to use her as a test.

This is my good brother!

Jiang Wan simply watched Ning Feng's performance with a smile, then nodded encouragingly. She then casually picked up the book she had used as a prop and began reading it with great pleasure.

Ning Feng: "…………"

You're supposed to play along with my act, pretending not to see anything?

"So, you called me over just to bully me?"

Are you a villain from somewhere?

“Bullying? I don’t have that kind of twisted sense of humor.”

Jiang Wan turned the book over and placed it on the table, finally suppressing her smile, and spoke seriously:

"Have you ever thought that our reunion almost turned out the way it did just now?"

Separated by life and death.

Jiang Wan stepped forward and straightened his clothes. Looking at Ning Feng, who was gradually stiffening, she gently asked:

"You should know this better than I do, right? Especially when you wrote your will, I'm really grateful that you still remembered me."

Although her tone was incredibly gentle, the resentment in her words was unmistakable.

Ning Feng pursed his lips, wanting to say something in his own defense, but in the end he couldn't bring himself to say it, and could only turn his head slightly away and say:

"Aren't you the same in this respect?"

Ning Feng is still in the command sequence, but Jiang Wanke has indeed been in the combat sequence for two years, and she has faced death far more times than Ning Feng.

In terms of past worries, Ning Feng had far more than Jiang Wan.

“It’s different. You’re just an office worker. Those things aren’t your responsibility.”

He wanted to explain something, but after Jiang Wan fastened the last button for him, she pushed Ning Feng down onto a stool.

It was completely unexpected that such a slender wrist could contain such great strength. Ning Feng gave up after offering little resistance and looked up, puzzled.

What are you going to do?

If you can't win an argument, you resort to violence, and you expect me to sit down so you don't have to look up, right?

With that in mind, Jiang Wan made her move!

She reached out and pinched Ning Feng's cheeks, pulling them outwards with a gentle but firm motion.

???

But Jiang Wan didn't explain anything, she just smiled and looked at Ning Feng's bewildered expression, then suddenly said:

Life is short, so seize the day.

Ok?

Ning Feng raised an eyebrow, wondering what Jiang Wan meant by suddenly bringing up this at this moment.

"...What do you mean?"

"Stop acting cute, it's nothing, just a word of advice."

With an uncharacteristically gentle smile, the peculiar look in Jiang Wan's eyes calmed Ning Feng's initial desire to resist.

The atmosphere in the room became peaceful, and a reassuring feeling filled the air.

Sunlight streamed into the room, falling on Jiang Wan's lips and also imprinting itself on Ning Feng's forehead.

"Alright, I should go now."

Releasing Ning Feng's smile, Jiang Wan smiled happily and then walked lightly towards the door.

There was not the slightest bit of lingering affection.

Ning Feng: "…………"

You woman, are you the legendary heartless one who pulls out of bed without a second thought?

The problem is, you don't have any either!

And you called me here just for this?

That's it?

"Oh yes, a gift."

Just as she was about to leave, Jiang Wan suddenly turned back, pointed at the books left on the stool, and smiled:

"I bought this poetry collection at a roadside bookstore on a whim. I'm giving it to you to cultivate your mind."

what……

"Ning Feng".

"Ok?"

The unusually gentle voice brought Ning Feng back to his senses. He looked at Jiang Wan and saw a serious expression he had never seen before.

"Don't die casually, I really don't want to read your eulogy."

Without waiting for Ning Feng's response, Jiang Wan regained her original expression and left the room with a flourish.

"Alright, see you later."

card.

Staring blankly at the closed door, Ning Feng pursed his lips, feeling a dryness in his throat.

He wanted to say something, but nothing came out.

We've known each other for years. She seems well-behaved and obedient, but deep down she harbors a wild and unruly devil.

Unpredictable; they come running when they're happy, and leave gracefully when they're satisfied.

"A woman like a cat."

"Meow~ Are you talking about me?"

Uh……

A woman who is actually a cat has appeared!

It suddenly landed on Ning Feng's head, the black cat lowered its head to meet his gaze, and said excitedly:

"By the way, I really like her!"

Ok?

"why?"

With a smile that narrowed her eyes, Ariana chuckled softly:

"Because...she seems to have a lot of depraved value~"

Chapter Fifteen: Don't tell him!

A sudden text message, a sudden appearance, and then a sudden departure.

Jiang Wan's appearance seemed to be solely to tell Ning Feng in person that she was very worried about his risky actions.

His departing figure exuded elegance...

Weird.

"...I messed it up."

After stepping out of the room, Jiang Wan's ever-present smile suddenly froze, and she quickened her pace, clutching her waist.

Avoiding passing colleagues, Jiang Wan walked quickly without bumping into anyone, muttering to herself:

"Thank goodness, we were almost discovered."

"They came too fast! A man can't be this fast!"

And on the waist she was covering, a glaring scarlet blood was gradually seeping into her white coat.

Jiang Wan found a medical room, went inside, and locked the door. She pulled open her coat, revealing layers of bandages soaked in blood underneath.

A huge laceration ran through her waist, as if she had been brutally attacked by a terrifying beast, almost severing her entire body in half.
