Chapter 67: Leave Others a Way Out

Chapter 67: Chapter 67: Leave Others a Way Out Jian Liangtong’s breath caught, "What’s wrong? I didn’t use any force." Now that she was two people, she dared not use any force at all. Saying she pushed her was nothing more than a light touch. Jin Jumo lowered her eyelashes, when she touched her just now, the friction on her shoulder blade from the clothes hurt a bit. Not wanting her to worry, Jin Jumo shook her head, "It’s nothing." "What’s nothing?" Jian Liangtong was anxious, "Your face is all white." Jin Jumo tugged at her hand, "Really, it’s nothing, I just accidentally bumped my shoulder bone." Bumped? Jian Liangtong’s face turned pale too, pursing her lips as she pulled at Jin Jumo’s shoulder, "How can you be so careless? In your current situation, can you just bump around like that? Jin Jumo, can you please give me some peace of mind? Gosh, it’s such a big bruise, Jin Jumo, you’re really driving me crazy!" "It’s okay, it’ll be better in a couple of days." Jin Jumo glanced at Huo Shaojun, who was standing over there and got off the car at some point, feeling a bit embarrassed as she pulled down Jian Liangtong’s hand, and said softly. Jian Liangtong bit her lip, glaring at Jin Jumo in frustration. Jin Jumo looked sulky, obediently closing her mouth. "Be more careful walking next time." Jian Liangtong said sternly, glaring at Jin Jumo. Jin Jumo quickly nodded, "Got it." Jian Liangtong pouted, "It’s such a big bruise, we’ll definitely need to buy some herbal wine to rub on it later." "I won’t be coming to the company this afternoon, I’ll buy a bottle of herbal wine to rub when I go back to the dorm after school." Jin Jumo followed Jian Liangtong’s lead. Jian Liangtong huffed, and then pulled Jin Jumo towards the Lincoln car. "Hey big star, why are you down here instead of staying in the car, aren’t you getting enough attention already." Jian Liangtong approached, glancing at Huo Shaojun who was standing expressionlessly. Huo Shaojun gave a low chuckle and stepped into the car. In the extended Lincoln car, besides the three of them, there was only a driver. Jian Liangtong sat next to Jin Jumo, holding her hand the whole way, visibly unhappy due to Jin Jumo’s careless "bump," her little face long and dragged. Jin Jumo glanced at Huo Shaojun sitting steadily like Mount Tai opposite her. Huo Shaojun wasn’t a superstar for no reason. Not only did he portray his roles accurately, but his features were also strikingly handsome from every angle. His deep eyes, naturally rebellious and untamed, could instantly attract countless fans. Perhaps noticing Jin Jumo’s gaze, Huo Shaojun’s brow furrowed slightly, and his sharp gaze shot at Jin Jumo. Jin Jumo’s eyes stung, yet she did not hide and turned to nod at him. Huo Shaojun’s thin lips pressed tighter, he turned his gaze without any response. Jin Jumo awkwardly tugged at her mouth corner, how cool! "What to eat?" Huo Shaojun spoke coldly. Jin Jumo looked at him but found he wasn’t looking at her at all, his eyes fixed directly on Jian Liangtong beside her. Jian Liangtong frowned, sneakily glancing at Jin Jumo from the corner of her eyes. Jin Jumo raised an eyebrow, "Oh, um, I just remembered I have an appointment at noon." "Yeah, yeah, I almost forgot, we have an appointment together." Jian Liangtong quickly chimed in. As soon as Jian Liangtong spoke, Jin Jumo saw Huo Shaojun’s face turn grim. Jin Jumo looked at Jian Liangtong, puzzled, "We have an appointment together? Did you remember wrongly?" What? Jian Liangtong looked at Jin Jumo in shock. Jin Jumo continued to look at Jian Liangtong with that bewildered expression. Jian Liangtong’s inner monologue at this moment... Damn it! Jin Jumo, can you do anything right? We agreed to get out of the car together, not just you alone, okay? Can’t we have fun anymore? "Mr. Huo, could you please ask your driver to take me to Nanhu Road?" Jin Jumo naturally turned her gaze away, looking at Huo Shaojun. Huo Shaojun squinted his eyes, nodding. Nanhu Road is near G University, does she think I’m oblivious just because I’m directionally challenged? Jian Liangtong glared at Jin Jumo resentfully. She really wanted to grab Jin Jumo by the shoulders and shake her wildly, loudly asking why she did this, weren’t they best friends? Jin Jumo felt like her cheek was being poked through by Jian Liangtong’s gaze. During the twenty minutes to Nanhu Road, Jin Jumo was "killed" countless times by Jian Liangtong’s rising resentment. When they finally arrived, Jin Jumo let out a big sigh of relief, thanked Huo Shaojun, and quickly got out of the car. The car drove away far, yet Jin Jumo could still feel the sorrowful and angry gaze Jian Liangtong shot at her from the car. "Your friend is quite nice." In the car, Huo Shaojun expressed seriously. "What friend? Excuse me, do I have a friend?" Jian Liangtong squinted her eyes, planning to cut ties with someone once she got back! Thinking about it, why wait till she gets back, she wanted to cut ties with that annoying Ju Zi right now! Jian Liangtong angrily took out her phone and decisively sent a message to Jin Jumo, "We’re over!!" Huo Shaojun glanced at her face flushed by rage, his eyes deepened, his cold voice rare with a hint of warmth, "What do you want to eat?" "Eat what? I’m already full from the anger!" Jian Liangtong quickly replied without thinking. Huo Shaojun’s face instantly darkened, huh, as expected, can’t be too nice to this woman, she’s the type to take an inch and want a mile! "I’m thirsty!" Huo Shaojun angrily glared at Jian Liangtong. Jian Liangtong glanced at him and ignored him! "I said I’m thirsty!" Huo Shaojun’s tone deepened. Jian Liangtong rolled her eyes. "Can’t you understand human language?" Huo Shaojun’s face turned black as Judge Bao. "I can understand human language, but not necessarily pig language." Jian Liangtong pouted, lazily said. Pig language? How dare she call him a pig! Huo Shaojun’s eyes flared with anger, in a stance to rush forward and tear Jian Liangtong apart any moment. Jian Liangtong looked at his forehead, where veins were popping out from the anger, miraculously healing the unpleasant feeling from being "betrayed" by Jin Jumo. Pressing her lips, Jian Liangtong spoke to the driver, "Xiao Deng, pull over, the big star needs water." The driver stopped at a convenience store, Jian Liangtong glanced at the certain big star who was still glaring at her, wishing he could swallow her whole. Fearlessly, she raised her eyebrows and got out of the car, even bouncing as she walked. Huo Shaojun watched Jian Liangtong’s proud and lighthearted back, his tense, handsome face slowly relaxed. Deep in his eyes flashed a brief softness and helplessness, does making her angry bring her such joy? Jin Jumo received Jian Liangtong’s text while eating century egg and lean meat congee at a porridge restaurant near the school. Seeing the message, Jin Jumo sheepishly touched her nose. After lunch, Jin Jumo went back to the dorm to prepare for tomorrow’s dubbing. In the evening, a message came from a certain little imp who said she wanted to break up with her, asking if she wanted mushroom chicken and omelet rice. Two-faced! Jin Jumo pursed her lips and replied, "Yes, as long as you buy it, I’ll eat anything, even poison!" "Don’t flatter yourself, I didn’t mean to bring it for you, I just ordered too much and couldn’t finish it." Jian Liangtong haughtily replied. Jian Liangtong immediately replied with an angry emoji! Half an hour later, Jian Liangtong arrived with a big bag of food, swung it around, and said, "I’m back." Jin Jumo let out a nervous laugh, "You’re back." Jian Liangtong snorted in response. Jin Jumo stuck her tongue to the side, placed a cup of warm water in front of Jian Liangtong, and fawned, "Old Buddha, the water is ready for you." Jian Liangtong hmphed, acknowledging her reply. Jin Jumo poured a cup of warm water for Jian Liangtong, "Old Buddha, the water is here." Jian Liangtong snorted in response, barely containing a smile as her lips twitched despite her best efforts.
