Deities Are All Just My Food-Chapter 2323 - 1040: A Beautiful Misunderstanding on a Summer Afternoon! (Part 2)
Then, she slammed the door open and rushed toward Lin Baici.
Could it be that when I was a child, after being bitten by a dog, the rabies virus lay dormant until today to erupt?
Jiang Yitong knew nothing about the secretive topic of God’s bones pollution; her first reaction was rabies acting up.
Her family had always been quite poor, and when she was a child in the countryside, she was bitten twice by a dog and couldn’t afford rabies vaccines.
But...
Jiang Yitong couldn’t find a self-consistent logic; from the video alone, it seemed to be her problem.
If this gets reported to the police, and they hand over the video, I would be the one in trouble, right?
Deep down, Jiang Yitong was still an honest person; she didn’t even think about deleting the video, stabilizing Lin Baici, then turning the tables to seize the opportunity and cash in heavily.
Her mind was now blank; she was sulking and blaming herself in the midst of depression.
Why is my family so poor?
We couldn’t even afford rabies vaccines after being bitten by a dog!
Or else this whole mess wouldn’t have happened, right?
Jiang Yitong unconsciously swiped Lin Baici’s phone, and because it was in the photo album interface, she saw the photos inside.
There were hardly any photos, all taken in high school and college, and the face appearing most frequently was Li Wei.
But these girls are so beautiful!
Gu Qingqiu, Ji Xinyan, Xia Hongyao, Nangong Shu, San Miyairi, Hua Yue Yu...
What?
Isn’t this the top girl of the Seafood Channel?
Turns out she was also this guy’s girlfriend?
Hua Yue Yu was holding Lin Baici, cheek pressed against his selfie, undeniably looking like a couple.
Jiang Yitong also wanted to be an influencer to make money, and naturally knew about top stars like Hua Yue Yu.
Jiang Yitong suddenly got a huge scoop, but instead of feeling happy, she felt more and more inferior; any girl in this album looked better than her, and they covered all ages.
"Player!"
Jiang Yitong muttered.
If she wasn’t worried Lin Baici would secretly photograph her, she wouldn’t have come up in the first place and wouldn’t have encountered this kind of situation.
But looking at it now, if Lin Baici wanted to take those kinds of photos, he’d likely choose these pretty girls who probably wouldn’t refuse. Why would he risk taking photos of me?
This is a real loss!
"Finished looking?"
Lin Baici walked to the desk, poured a cup of warm water from a thermos jug, and headed towards the bed.
Jiang Yitong wrapped the blanket around herself even tighter.
"What are you planning to do?"
Lin Baici handed over the cup of water.
Jiang Yitong hung her head low, silent like a lamb.
"Do you plan on hiding under the blanket for a lifetime?"
If it were the former Lin Baici, he’d probably be stuck too, but now, he was much more confident.
"What... What are you planning to do?"
Jiang Yitong also realized this couldn’t go on, so she countered with a question. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
"You can choose to report it to the police, but I can tell you, with my capabilities, I can easily resolve this matter, and if I were a bit ruthless, I could have you sent to a mental institution!"
Lin Baici, as part of Nine Provinces Dragon Wing, had immunity from killing.
Jiang Yitong’s face turned somewhat unsightly.
"Of course, with a matter like this, I don’t even need to take action myself. Because of my high value, my superiors, friends, or even some who want to win me over, once they know about this, will immediately intervene and make you disappear from this world!"
Lin Baici shrugged his shoulders.
Xia Hongmian, Fish Egg Guy, Tai Mei, even Kim Myungjin were not good people. As soon as they found out about signs of his reputation collapsing, they’d surely act first to kill Jiang Yitong.
"But I think you’re a smart person!"
Lin Baici felt a bit like a villainous boss: "I’ll give you a sum of money, and let’s pretend this never happened?"
Jiang Yitong still didn’t speak, but her mind was full of chaotic thoughts.
She often read novels, browsed Xiaohongshu, watched various short sketches, and had longed for a Cinderella meets domineering CEO scenario.
At this moment, Lin Baici really seemed like one of those domineering CEOs who wouldn’t admit to anything after taking advantage, and according to short sketch plots, she’d definitely end up pregnant with his child and fight tooth and nail with the female lead.
No!
With Lin Baici’s capital, there must be female leads two, three, four, five, and six!
Dang!
Did I get the script for the main female lead’s comeback?
Jiang Yitong was lost in thought.
Women, by nature, are mostly emotional and almost all are obsessed with appearances; otherwise, why is it that male celebrities in the entertainment industry generally have higher value than female celebrities?
It’s because the female audience likes them.
Even a certain middle-aged person on a certain platform, who looks greasy to most, has tens of millions of followers, and crazy amounts of middle-aged women’s wallets are harvested.
Lin Baici is super wealthy, and his looks are exceptionally good; at Haijing Normal University, he’s definitely the campus heartthrob, not to mention Wang Fang speaks very highly of him, which invisibly affects Jiang Yitong’s judgment of Lin Baici.
In truth, the fundamental reason Jiang Yitong disliked Lin Baici was because her little black history of pretending to be a rich girl was seen by him.
But to say she hated him as a person, she didn’t.
```
If it were a bald man with a pot belly in his fifties or sixties doing this, Jiang Yitong would have called the police already, without giving him any explanation opportunities.
Exaggerating a bit, it seems I’m not at a loss.
With Lin Baici’s looks and physique, he would definitely be the top choice if he went to be a gigolo; his eight-pack abs would surely charm many women.
"I don’t want your money!"
Jiang Yitong’s voice chilled.
"Why?"
Lin Baici laughed, "Trying to be the self-reliant and independent woman abandoned by a jerk, like in the dramas?"
"What’s so great about having money?"
Jiang Yitong glared fiercely at Lin Baici.
"Yitong!"
Lin Baici gently called out.
In fact, activating the Performance Master combined with Mantra Buddha Resound has a great effect, but Lin Baici disdains using it.
"Why?"
Jiang Yitong’s heart trembled; Lin Baici’s voice was very gentle.
"On a certain summer afternoon, a beautiful misunderstanding happened, don’t you think?"
Lin Baici smiled tenderly, reaching out to touch Jiang Yitong’s head.
Jiang Yitong instinctively struggled a bit, but not much, and Lin Baici still touched her.
She instantly felt that this guy’s palm was really big.
"You want to marry into a rich family? Not easy, even if successful, can you guarantee a happy marriage? Some wealthy men play tricks you can’t even imagine."
"What are you trying to say?"
Jiang Yitong frowned.
"Why not become a little rich woman first? That way, you’ll live comfortably in college, and after graduation, work if you’re happy, quit if you’re unhappy."
Really have to put thought into it!
"What? You want to be my boyfriend?"
Jiang Yitong started her counterattack.
After watching so much on Little Red Book, and thinking about the high divorce rate, honestly, her focus isn’t on the first time.
Why doesn’t Jiang Yitong date?
She doesn’t believe the first relationship will lead to marriage; even if it does, it may not last until old age.
She believes she’s poor, unworthy of love.
Because her mom lived so poorly, it made her want money first since childhood.
"..."
Lin Baici was momentarily speechless.
"Jerk!"
Seeing Lin Baici’s expression, Jiang Yitong showed sarcasm, but internally felt disappointed and self-mocking.
She was the school belle of Haijing Normal University, but this man still looked down on her, not even interested in making friends.
"Ha ha!"
Lin Baici chuckled bitterly, before he could reorganize his words, Jiang Yitong uttered a shocking phrase.
"So you want to keep me, huh?"
"Don’t misunderstand!"
Lin Baici quickly clarified, "That’s not it!"
"Oh, didn’t see you’re henpecked?"
Jiang Yitong mocked.
Can’t chat on a day like this!
"Give me your phone!"
Lin Baici urged.
Oh right!
Where’s my phone?
Jiang Yitong looked down to find the ripped clothes on the ground.
Lin Baici picked up Jiang Yitong’s phone from the ground, pressed it twice, "Unlock code?"
Jiang Yitong said nothing.
Lin Baici brought the phone closer to Jiang Yitong.
Facial recognition completed.
Lin Baici found Jiang Yitong’s WeChat, added himself, then transferred money to her.
Ding ding ding!
Continuous intense phone notifications rang out.
After handling it for a while, Lin Baici tossed the phone to Jiang Yitong.
"Can you move?"
Lin Baici asked, "If you can, I’ll take you back to school!"
