Chapter 16: What Was Going On In Her Head

“Did she buy some?” Jixuan curled his lips into a scornful smile. “She h.o.a.rded a whole year’s worth of snacks.”

“Why did you buy so much?” Chengye frowned. “I gave you a subcard, but I didn’t say that you could spend so recklessly.”

Buying snacks in and of itself was fine, but buying too many of them was another issue entirely.

“If there is a sudden outbreak of a virus, these will all become life-saving rations during the apocalypse.” Jiang Xun stuffed another spoonful of fried oyster meat into her mouth.

Chengye blinked. “… What virus? What apocalypse? Could you think of something normal for once?!”

By now, Jiang Xun had finished all the rice in the pot. She clapped his hands and stood up, then shot them a disdainful look from the corner of her eyes. “Ha, stupid humans!”

After saying that, she went upstairs to her bedroom.

It took a while for everyone to react.

“Mom, is there something wrong with her brain?” Yuexi asked in a low voice, crying.

Nianzhen couldn’t find the words to answer her. She herself also thought that there was something wrong with Jiang Xun’s brain.

The next morning, Jiang Xun woke up early. When she headed downstairs, she saw Chengye at the dining table.

Chengye thought that she would have to study after breakfast, so he paid her no heed until he saw her shoveling two pieces of fried dough, three fried eggs, four bowls of porridge, and five steamed buns into her mouth.

He stared at her. “… Don’t you feel bloated after eating so much in one meal?”

“If I don’t eat more now, I won’t be able to eat even if I want to.”

She shook her head disdainfully. “You really don’t know how to cherish what you have.”

Chengye could only stare in bewilderment. He wanted to know just what was going on in that head of hers.

Not only did Jiang Xun eat a lot, she also ate very quickly. Before Chengye could finish his meal, she’d already finished hers and promptly ran out the door.

Chengye didn’t even have time to stop her.

Jiang Xun ran all the way to the subway station and started patrolling the crowded ones again.

Today, she managed to catch a person secretly taking upskirt photos with his cellphone, a person who took advantage of the crowd to caress her hand, and a thief.

She forced them to repeat their apologies and managed to earn 10 MP in total.

On the third day, Jiang Xun expanded her scope again and went straight to the suburbs of the city. She managed to catch a robber and two thieves.

On the sixth day, Jiang Xun stepped on a thief.

When the police arrived at the scenes of the crimes, they saw Jiang Xun again, who was quickly becoming a familiar face.

What’s up with you! Why is it always you!

Jiang Xun was going to rob them of their jobs!

Back at the Jiang family villa, Jiang Xun was not around, so Yuexi said to Nianzhen, “What is Jiang Xun doing? The college entrance exam is tomorrow, but she’s not studying at all.”

“Who cares about her? She goes out every day. Isn’t it good that she is not studying? It would be best if she couldn’t even get into a university. If word gets out, your father’s reputation will drop, and then he won’t have her around anymore!” Nianzhen laughed gloatingly. “I’ve already checked this earlier: When she was in Wenping High School, her grades were only average. Even if she could get into a university, it definitely can’t be compared to you getting into the National Opera.”

“National Opera is so difficult to get into, especially the acting cla.s.s. There are only about twenty people in that cla.s.s, and everyone was selected from all the examinees in the country. How could she be compared to you?” Nianzhen said proudly. “We can take advantage of this. If you can suppress her, let’s see how arrogant she will be in the future!”

In the evening, after Chengye came back from work, Nianzhen brought him some clothes to change into in the bedroom. She even took the opportunity to tell him, “Jiang Xun went out for the whole day again and hasn’t come back yet.”

She put on a sad face. “But tomorrow is the college entrance exam, so this can’t be good. The other examinees are obediently studying at home, but she’s always doing something outside. She leaves early in the morning and returns late at night every day.”

“I’m a stepmother, so I’ve refrained from saying anything bad in case I make her unhappy.” Nianzhen handed Chengye a T-s.h.i.+rt and took his work clothes from him. “She has never liked me, so I didn’t want to comment on her, but with her being like this, what about the examination tomorrow?… For the sake of our family’s face, will we have to spend money to send her abroad to study? Oh, but people don’t really accept diplomas from overseas universities apart from some famous ones…”

“But the point is, she can’t get into a famous university either. Of course, if she can get into one, we’ll definitely send her over, but if she can’t, we’ll still need to get her to a university. With her temper… I’m really worried that she’ll cause trouble abroad.”

Nianzhen looked at Chengye’s face and was pleased to see his expression darkening, but she still said, “Let’s stay away from her. If she really causes trouble, I’m afraid that we won’t be able to help her.”

“She can’t even get into university, and she still has the gall to spend my money?” Chengye said with a cold face, “If she really can’t even get into university, I’ll send her somewhere else. She’s already of age, so she can take care of herself. I’ll pretend that I don’t have a daughter if that happens!”

Nianzhen was delighted to hear his words. However, right as she was about to deal the final blow on whatever remained of Chengye’s resistance to sending Jiang Xun away, the person in question suddenly returned.

“Why is she back so early today?” Nianzhen mumbled. A few days ago, she’d only come back when they were in the middle of their meal.

Chengye changed his clothes and strode to the living room, but he didn’t see Jiang Xun there.

“Where’s Jiang Xun?” He asked Aunt Zhang.

“She just went back to her room,” came the reply.

That girl was too fast, Chengye thought.

Not long after, Jiang Xun smelled the aroma of the dishes and came down.

Aunt Zhang had just finished bringing the dishes to the table. As expected, she gave Jiang Xun a big bowl and even filled it with rice piled high like a small mountain.

Chengye was now angry at Jiang Xun. He didn’t like her no matter how he looked at her, so he sarcastically said, “Why did you come back so early today?”

“The college entrance exam is tomorrow, so of course I’d come back early,” she replied. Why were they always asking stupid questions?

“You know that the college entrance exam is tomorrow, and you went out for a whole day today!” Chengye was so angry at Jiang Xun that he’d lost his appet.i.te. “You’ve been back for a week and haven’t been home every day. Have you finished your revision?”

“There’s no problem. I’m very good at studying, so I already know everything like the back of my hand. “Jiang Xun said confidently as she piled her bowl high with beef ribs.

Although eating them one by one wasn’t very satisfying, they were still delicious.

“You’re really confident,” Jixuan said sarcastically. “Since you’re so confident, have you thought about which university you want to apply to?”

“I’ve thought about it,” Jiang Xun ignored his sarcasm. “I want to apply to Beijing University.”

The table was silent.

Jixuan was stunned for a moment before suddenly laughing out loud. “You? Apply to Beijing University? Beijing University is the number one university in China!”

“Heh!” Jiang Xun glanced at Jixuan again, looking as if she was staring at a particularly uneducated person.

Jixuan was angry. No one had ever looked at him like that!
