Chapter 729: Like Yesterday, We Loved
Chapter 728 Chapter 729 It's Like Yesterday, We Were Once In Love
Rejected 99 Times, the Aloof Campus Belle Comes On Strong at Me, Jiang Muye
Boss Cutie
Jiang Muye instantly knew what was up.
"Just call your mom. I don't want you to have regrets one day. Whether it can succeed is up to them, but whether we try is up to us."
After hearing Jiang Muye's support, Leng Ruoli was overjoyed. "Thanks, you and I are thinking the same thing. Then I'll call my mom!"
Leng Ruoli immediately started calling Xiang Shan.
But it was a busy tone, which made Leng Ruoli incredibly anxious.
Why isn't she picking up?
"Where is she? Hurry and pick up!" Leng Ruoli was on tenterhooks. She really feared that once the registration time arrived and her dad left, it would truly be too late.
"She'll pick up," Jiang Muye said. He knew Leng Ruoli was anxious, and was doing his best to steady her emotions.
At that moment, Jiang Muye entered the System Shop once again.
He immediately exchanged for a Brainwave Interference through the System.
This skill was also ridiculously overpowered.
It could make a person instantly realize what they needed to do and snap them back to clarity. It was somewhat on the manipulative side.
The instant Jiang Muye used it, Xiang Shan, who was in the bathroom taking a shower and not answering the phone, felt a thought uncontrollably enter her mind.
She had to answer the phone!
This thought was incredibly powerful.
It forcefully controlled her hands and feet, and she gradually walked toward the living room.
Sure enough, Xiang Shan heard the ringing of the phone.
She picked up the phone and found it was her daughter's voice.
"Mom, where are you? Come quick, Dad is about to leave! The plane takes off in less than half an hour!" Leng Ruoli's anxious voice came through.
Xiang Shan's heart lurched. "He's leaving? Leaving where?"
"Flying to M Country. I think you could go with him. There's just a misunderstanding between you two. Nobody gave anyone a way to step down, nobody offered a way to step up, and that's why things turned so sour. Just take this chance and have a good talk with him!"
Leng Ruoli loudly tried to wake Xiang Shan up.
Xiang Shan's heart trembled, and she abruptly said to Leng Ruoli, "No."
Leng Ruoli was feeling the urgency, but she never expected to be rejected by her own mother.
She simply couldn't understand. "Why?"
She was somewhat hysterical. "Mom, don't you love Dad very much? Why can't you chase him back? If chasing him once doesn't work, then try a second time, a third time. What if? Might as well—maybe one of those times will succeed!"
As Leng Ruoli spoke, her emotions ran high.
After hearing Leng Ruoli's words, Jiang Muye had already understood that Xiang Shan had rejected her, which was why Leng Ruoli was so devastated.
Naturally, he didn't want to watch his Darling be so sad and angry—and conveniently, he had the System.
So without another word, Jiang Muye manipulated Xiang Shan's brainwaves.
Immediately, a very powerful thought appeared in Xiang Shan's mind.
Chase him! Chase him to the ends of the earth! Chase him to death!
"Alright, I'll come!"
Leng Ruoli, who had been worrying herself sick over her parents, suddenly lit up upon hearing Xiang Shan's words.
"Great, Mom, hurry and come!" Leng Ruoli happily urged.
"But it's quite a distance from here to the airport. I definitely can't make it in such a short time. What should I do?" Xiang Shan asked.
Her home was a full forty-minute drive from the airport—there was absolutely no way to make it in time.
This made Leng Ruoli very anxious. "So what should we do?"
She even turned to Jiang Muye for help, and Jiang Muye decisively said, "No problem. I have a helicopter. I'll send someone to pick her up right away."
Jiang Muye's words instantly gave Leng Ruoli hope. She bounced with joy, and excitedly leapt up to kiss Jiang Muye on the cheek. "I love you to death! Darling, how are you so amazing!"
Jiang Muye grinned. "I've always been amazing!"
Jiang Muye quickly began contacting his subordinates to make arrangements. A helicopter began flying toward the location closest to Xiang Shan, and it was estimated that she would be picked up very soon.
After making these arrangements, Jiang Muye felt that time was still very tight—after all, the boarding time was right around the corner.
Even by helicopter, it would take time. What if there was a delay in between?
So Jiang Muye thought of the Time Freeze function the System had just given him.
This function was limited to a designated area, and could be considered incredibly badass.
Jiang Muye immediately began using this skill. That way, he could compress the time cost, and being late or missing the flight became impossible.
Jiang Muye immediately operated it according to the System's instructions.
With his own eyes, Jiang Muye watched as the crowds of people who had been weaving back and forth all froze in place, including Leng Ruoli, who didn't move an inch.
In the entire vast airport, only Jiang Muye could move. After all, time was now in Jiang Muye's hands.
If Jiang Muye was willing, he could even use Time Rewind to return to the past.
But Jiang Muye only manipulated the airport's time, so other places were unaffected.
The helicopter had already picked up Xiang Shan and was heading toward the airport.
With Jiang Muye's skill, it was completely possible to make it in time.
Sure enough, just as Jiang Muye expected, he had already sensed the helicopter arriving at the airport. So, to avoid drawing attention and letting people notice, Jiang Muye began restoring time.
And time resumed from the exact moment it had been frozen.
After Jiang Muye snapped his fingers, the people whose movements had been paused began moving once again.
Leng Ruoli also wore an urgent expression as she asked Jiang Muye, "Can my mom make it? Where are they now?"
Jiang Muye confidently told Leng Ruoli, "Darling, don't worry. They've already arrived. They'll be able to meet your dad very soon."
Leng Ruoli was overjoyed, her mood greatly lifted. "That's great."
As Jiang Muye had seen, Xiang Shan had already arrived at the scene with a large group of people.
"Thank you, then I'll be going!" Xiang Shan said gratefully to Jiang Muye.
"Alright." Jiang Muye even helped Xiang Shan communicate with the staff, and so Xiang Shan was granted an exception to enter and look for Father-in-Law.
At this moment, Father Leng was already preparing to board the plane.
As he stood up from his seat, a familiar figure appeared in his line of sight.
She was running incredibly fast, her long hair whipping wildly with the motion of her running, and her face wore an anxious expression.
After seeing him, she was wild with joy.
"Leng Qihua—"
She shouted, and ran toward Father Leng.
Father Leng was also surprised. "Why are you here?"
"I came to find you!?" Xiang Shan's eyes gazed痴ly at Father Leng. "How could you leave without even saying goodbye?"
"What I said before was clear enough. If you still don't understand, I can..."
But Xiang Shan's eyes were bright. "If you don't understand my heart, then I'll tell you loudly right now—I love you. Not because I love how devoted you look, not to move myself, and not out of a bitter refusal to accept what was happening. I truly love you!"
"If I didn't love you, I wouldn't have married you back then. I just let that feeling fade, which is why I neglected your feelings. It was too outrageous of me!"
And the author smirked slyly. You're all too naive—that's underestimating the author's strength. Tomorrow I'll give you a special ending for Father Leng and Xiang Shan! You definitely won't be able to guess it anyway!
