Chapter 197: At the mercy of others
Even if this extra entry might have been deleted before she came into contact with Elvis, the timing is still too coincidental.
Jiang Wan tightened his knuckles holding the mouse and stared at the screen for a long time before slowly clicking to confirm his attention. He then found a recent hot topic on the forum and shared it directly with the other party, attaching a message as he did in his previous life.
It didn't matter whether it was intentional or not. She just had to see how Elvis would react this time.
Maybe Elvis won't even open her message this time, let alone reply to her, but this would prove that the extra updates were really just a coincidence, and she could breathe a sigh of relief.
There was no movement in the chat box for a long time, and Jiang Wan's mood became calmer. He could only put the matter aside for the time being and start studying the recent stock market.
It was not until night fell that Jiang Wan finally came up with some plans. He then exited the forum, got up, and ground a cup of coffee to wake himself up.
The last live broadcast was almost three days ago. Today she finally has time, and of course she can’t keep her fans waiting any longer.
Fans were indeed unprepared for Jiang Wan to start the live broadcast at this time, but they were also pleasantly surprised. What surprised them even more was that Jiang Wan did not end the live broadcast until after eight o'clock this time, and the live broadcast lasted nearly two hours.
Jiang Wan had originally only planned to live stream for an hour or so, but the comments in the live streaming room were too crazy just before the end of the broadcast, so he took advantage of his free time to chat for a while longer.
During the live broadcast, she also started two PKs at the request of fans, but she faced small-time anchors, so the outcome was not suspenseful.
The audience couldn't help but sigh that even if several familiar big brothers were not in Jiang Wan's live broadcast room, the votes from fans alone were beyond the reach of ordinary anchors.
On the other side, Jiang Xu had just finished work and saw the reminder to start the live broadcast. When he clicked into the live broadcast room, the first person on the gift list was "Always Special", who had just entered the live broadcast room not long ago and was also a manager.
He frowned and clicked on the gift panel to send a gift, but the girl on the screen who was so beautiful that he couldn't take his eyes off her said good night to the camera at this moment.
The live broadcast came to an abrupt end. Jiang Xu could only open WeChat and send a message to Jiang Wan: [Wan Wan, I was in a meeting and missed your live broadcast. Are you taking a break today? ]
Jiang Xu had already gone to the Shaw Group's building to pick up Jiang Wan twice, so of course he knew the time when Jiang Wan got off work.
Normally, today is Friday, and Jiang Wan's Fridays should be particularly busy working for a company like Shaw Brothers. However, judging from the live broadcast reminder, she had already started the live broadcast at around 5:50 today.
Jiang Wan of course knew what Jiang Xu meant, and he didn't intend to hide it, so he replied: [School starts the day after tomorrow, I won't work at Shaw Brothers anymore, Brother Xu.]
Is it just because school has started?
But Jiang Xu remembered that Peking University had a tradition of allowing students to apply for internships in advance, and Jiang Wan didn't seem to have any plans to leave Shaw so soon.
Recalling how the girl looked increasingly fragile, thinner and more pitiful during the live broadcast, Jiang Xu almost instantly guessed what must have happened to Jiang Wan in the past two days.
However, since the girl said this, it naturally means that she doesn't want to reveal more.
Thinking of this, his eyelids drooped slightly and he could only ask: [Do you have time to have dinner together tomorrow night? ]
The girl replied quickly, but the content of the message made his lips curl into a straight line.
[Sorry, Brother Xu, Brother Heng is coming back from a business trip tomorrow. We have plans to have dinner together to welcome him. Let's make another appointment.]
Jiang Xu did not reply to the message immediately, so Jiang Wan exited the chat box.
To be honest, she could have just said that she had something to do without being so specific, but for Jiang Xu, perhaps it would be better to explain it clearly.
As for now…it was time for her to have dinner.
After changing into a long skirt, Jiang Wan went downstairs to a restaurant near the community to eat something.
On my way home, when I was passing by a tree-lined path with only a few pedestrians, my phone suddenly rang with several WeChat message alerts.
She swiped the screen and saw that it was a message from Shao Lu'an.
Lu An: [Jiang Wan, are you broadcasting live tonight? ]
Lu An: [I’m working, so I can’t watch it. Can we have a video chat? ]
Lu An: [If you can’t, I can go find you. ]
Work?
Jiang Wan's eyes moved slightly, and she vaguely remembered that when Shao Ting and Shao Lu'an were talking on the phone before, he seemed to have mentioned that he would hand over Jinghang to Shao Lu'an after he came back.
But if I remember correctly, in her previous life, Shao Lu'an had not taken over Beijing Airlines until she dropped out of Beijing University.
Jiang Wan had guessed that this was another of the chain reactions that deviated from the original plot, and a complex look flashed in his eyes.
As for video or meeting in person, she was afraid that she could not give him a satisfactory answer.
But when Jiang Wan's slender white fingertips tapped the enter key to reply, his steps suddenly stopped.
Her pupils shrank slightly, and her eyelashes trembled slightly when someone patted her shoulder. A strange and rough male voice came to her ear: "Ms. Jiang, someone wants to talk to you alone. Is it convenient for you?"
Of course Jiang Wan wanted to say that it was inconvenient, but the cold and sharp touch against her waist and the cell phone that was easily snatched away made it impossible for her to act rashly even when she saw a young girl walking towards her.
After being taken into a black van in front of passers-by, Jiang Wan's hands were quickly tied tightly with thick ropes.
Her heart was beating wildly. She finally calmed herself down and tried several times to communicate with the two tall and strong men in the car, but all she got was silence.
Even though he couldn't see the time now, Jiang Wan knew that it had probably taken more than half an hour to drive.
As the car moved farther and farther away from the city, Jiang Wan felt a chill on his back.
This time was completely different from the previous times when she just went with the flow. She was just having a meal in a restaurant that was less than 500 meters away from the entrance of the community. Naturally, she couldn't let Fu Qing follow her.
Now her cell phone has been taken away and her movements are restricted, which means that she is like a fish on a chopping board, at the mercy of others and without any power to fight back.
But she rarely had any idea who the person was who wanted to talk to her alone.
The other party has obviously been waiting for a long time, if not this time then next time, unless she never goes out.
Jiang Wan didn't think it was Meng Shuyi, but apart from Meng Shuyi, she had never directly offended anyone...
wrong.
She had really offended someone, and it happened the day before yesterday.
But how is it possible?
It is impossible for the other party to continue to attack her when he is in danger.
Just when she was puzzled, the car finally stopped slowly.
The two men had obviously received instructions from the people behind them. Apart from tying her hands, they were quite polite to her. After taking her out of the car, they released their hands that were clasped around her shoulders.
It was not until then that Jiang Wan saw the figure standing on the beach.
Contrary to what she expected, this was a strange woman in her forties.
