Chapter 588 - 88: The Girl Behind
"Oh, what a coincidence."
Bingtang blinked, flashing a smile like she got caught doing something naughty, "Caught by my little sister."
Jiang Si snorted but didn’t say anything.
She glanced at the sky; it was already dusk, the time flow in the Curse Realm was different from here, and it was almost dark when they came out. The stars and the moon were now shining brightly, and many houses had their lights on, "Why are you out so late instead of being at home?"
"Buying groceries..."
Keke, who just answered, looked at the smiling Bingtang and immediately shouted, "You, get down from there! You’re acting like a mistress! My brother already has a girlfriend!"
"I know, I know."
Bingtang jumped off Jiang Si, still smiling, "We’re just friends, no need to be so tense."
"As friends, you should have some sense of boundaries, right?" Jiang Keke looked at her with utter hostility, "What would Teacher Zi Yuan think if she saw this?"
"Zi Yuan and I are also good friends."
Bingtang thought for a moment and teased, "She wouldn’t mind sharing her boyfriend."
"She’d actually be happy to see it."
"Teacher Zi Yuan is not that kind of person!" Keke shouted, hugging her brother’s hand, trying to pull him away, "Don’t hang out with a girl like her! Brother! Teacher Zi Yuan and our parents would be heartbroken!"
"Friends are just friends, brother! Friends shouldn’t act like lovers!"
"Bingtang."
Hearing Jiang Si call her name, Bingtang immediately behaved and didn’t dare to joke with Keke anymore, "Actually, I sprained my foot and it’s inconvenient, so Jiang Si was just helping me, sorry, I went too far with the joke."
Keke, who was originally ready to question Bingtang, froze and then awkwardly scratched her head, "Huh? Really? Is that so?"
She glanced at Jiang Si, who didn’t say anything, and momentarily, Keke was at a loss for what to do.
The feisty demeanor she had vanished instantly, and she looked down, muttering, "If that’s the case, there’s no helping it, but I’m still going to tell Teacher Zi Yuan, don’t think you can fool me."
"Mm, I’m not fooling you, you can ask Zi Yuan later."
As she said this, Bingtang reached out her hand, "I’m Bingtang, nice to meet you, Keke. Jiang Si always brags about you to me, saying you’re an excellent student, a rising star at the Disaster Strategy Bureau, Beihai’s beacon of hope, an amazing Magical Girl, and really cute too."
With just a couple of compliments, Keke was utterly dazed, scratching her head, "No, no, I’m not."
Then she quickly regained her composure and got serious, "Don’t think that just saying some flattering words will change my mind about you. Anyway, I will definitely talk to Teacher Zi Yuan..."
"Okay, okay." Bingtang cheerfully tidied Keke’s hair, "You were so angry just now that your hair got all messed up, it’s even cuter this way."
Oh no, it’s impossible to stay mad at such a smiling face!
Sorry, Teacher Zi Yuan, Keke was useless...
This girl called Bingtang smiles so beautifully, just like those big stars in commercials, but without being so dazzling, and she’s so gentle and speaks so nicely, Keke really likes her...
Wait, Bingtang?
Keke paused for a moment, "Are you the heiress of the Ice Era?"
"Forget about calling me an heiress, my parents often say I have no manners. I’m not even as good as an ordinary girl," Bingtang said as she pulled out her business card from her pocket, with her phone number on it, "If you don’t mind, we can keep in touch."
"Oh, okay..."
She dazedly took the business card and glanced at it.
She really is the heiress of the Ice Era Group...
Then she looked up at the heiress in front of her, watching her gently.
Felt a little out of sorts.
Her mouth seemed a bit tilted.
Realized it was just an illusion.
Although the Ice Era Group is still mainly headed by her father, it’s clear that her dad, the founder and ruler of the Ice Era Group, plans to groom Bingtang to be his successor.
She’s been featured in the news several times, and some of the group’s industries have even been transferred under Bingtang’s name.
A super famous, super rich, and powerful heiress indeed!
Keke occasionally glanced at her brother.
Although her brother indeed isn’t ugly, especially when he’s not talking or going crazy, he’s quite handsome.
According to Yiyi, put on glasses, and he could pass off as a literary youth.
But it’s not to the extent that he’d have so many girls falling head over heels for him...
Zi Yuan, Bingtang, Yiyi.
Without her knowing, there were always girls around her brother who were outstanding to an exaggerated degree.
Dad and Mom used to worry Jiang Si wouldn’t find a girlfriend.
Turns out, her brother can just pick and choose as he pleases!
Could there be others who like her brother too?
Yiyi, it seems we’re not just at a disadvantage, but we’re also facing numerous rivals. What should we do...
She cautiously moved closer to her brother, tugging at his clothes, "How did you meet Miss Bingtang?"
"We were desk mates."
"Huh?"
Bingtang laughed and said, "Though we were desk mates, Jiang Si barely attended classes, so we didn’t sit together often."
"Ah haha, my brother is like that..."
It turns out they weren’t just friends but desk mates too!
With this kind of classic comic scenario, Yiyi, how did you not notice such a rival when you were at school?
Yiyi, are you in a youthful daze...
Don’t want to be too rude, maybe I should prepare Teacher Zi Yuan’s clothes for Yiyi...
Suddenly remembered Yiyi also mentioned that her brother’s desk mate was a big deal.
