The policemen stared blankly in a daze from the anger towards her arrogance. Which family's young lady is this? You're ordering a constable like a conductor directing the choir. Did your family open the police station or what? You think we'll arrest whoever you tell us to?
Jiang Xiu pursed his brows, "Did a donkey kick your head?"
"If this Deity hadn't stopped the car, you'd have lost control sooner or later and charged into the pavement. Leaving aside whether you might've killed someone, you might've lost your own life."
"In truth, this Deity is the benefactor who saved your life."
Nangong Kou'er looked at him while gritting her teeth. The gaze with which she used was nowhere close to the gaze someone uses to look at their benefactor. It appeared as if she was looking at an absolutely irreconcilable archenemy. "You rushed in the middle of the street to block the way. If it weren't for this young lady's excellent driving skills, reacting quickly by stepping on the brakes in time, you'd have already died due to being hit by the car."
"I'm the actual benefactor who saved your life here."
As she said this, our Lady Kou'er's face was neither flushed nor gasping for breaths. It seemed that she had completely forgotten the fact that she was completely scared just before.
Jiang Xiu smiled coldly, "You believe you stopped the car?"
"Simply ignorant and silly!"
"W-Who are you talking about?" Nangong Kou'er's pale face became flushed. You actually dare scold this Nangong Kou'er as ignorant and silly? Color slowly returned to her pale face. She was indeed as beautiful as a summer peony, bold and unrestrained. Jiang Xiu felt this face was quite familiar.
"You two…"
"Nothing has happened and everyone is in a single piece. Let's end the matter here, okay? Come to the police station with me and this matter will be done as soon as a record is made."
The old policeman originally wanted to handle Nangong Kou'er and at least properly lesson her by locking her up inside for an evening. However, she had directly named the big boss of the province's bureau and that tone with which she used was simply frightening.
"Why?"
Both Jiang Xiu and Nangong Kou'er spoke in unison.
"Hey, such tacit understanding you both have. Is the fact that I'm a police officer not enough?"
"Humph!"
Nangong Kou'er groaned. A smile rose up on her charming face as she spoke loftily, "Do you know who I am? Will you even dare to grab me? Can you bear the responsibility?"
The old policeman asked, "Please tell us then."
Nangong Kou'er was already filled with pride to the brim, "Stand there properly and don't get scared when you hear it."
"Family name Nangong, Given name Kou'er!"
"Nangong Kou'er!"
The old constable didn't know who Nangong Kou'er was so he neither displayed amazement on his face nor was he trembling in fear. Nangong Kou'er felt disappointed by this. She forgot that these two weren't policemen from the Imperial Capital. If this was the Imperial Capital, just announcing Lady Nangong's name was enough to make the bureau chief stumble down from his chair.
"Nangong Kou'er?!"
Jiang Xiu looked at her with shock. It's her, Nangong Kou'er. No wonder she seemed familiar. It's one of my three fiancées.
Why is she here though?
In the previous timeline, Jiang Xiu had seen her almost ten years later. Nangong Kou'er had already become a mature woman by then, completely ripe as a juicy peach. Her nature wasn't so wild like this and she was a rather gentle and meticulous noble girl.
Jiang Xiu remembered something. When they had conversed in the previous timeline, Nangong Kou'er had mentioned that she had once come to Jiang City to look for him. Jiang Xiu was oblivious at that time so deducing from what she had said, it ought to have happened today.
Only, Jiang Xiu's life track had changed in this timeline, which caused them to meet here on the street.
In the previous timeline, they had a mutual understanding and signed an agreement to remove the engagement, then went their separate ways. Jiang Xiu didn't have any reason to get tangled with her in this timeline as well.
It's time to hit the road!
"Huh! Where did he go?"
Deity Xiu had already slipped away leaving no trace. Nangong Kou'er had became angry, "Scoundrel, I told you to arrest him and you didn't! Take a look now, he's escaped!"
The policemen were scolded by her as if they were her subordinates.
"I've remembered your badge numbers, so I'll surely complain to Yan Tianxiong. Just wait to pack up your things."
The policemen were stupefied.
They couldn't bother about teaching Nangong Kou'er a lesson at this moment. They followed her with their eyes as she opened the Ferrari's car door with swag and sat inside. She started the car and then leaned on the side window, "Which way is to Jiang City's Second High?"
The policemen pointed towards Second High's direction like robots.
Vrrroommm!
The Ferrari raced ahead, but the speed this time was already reduced to the regular driving speed.
"Captain! Just who is this young lady? Is she really that amazing?"
"She really wouldn't complain about us, right?"
The old policeman said, "She only glanced at our badge numbers before leaving. She couldn't have remembered it."
After saying this, he walked towards the street. As the Ferrari had made an emergency brake just now, the tires had left behind a 5 m long tire tracks. The tracks were fairly dark and ended quite suddenly.
According to his experience from years of working, these tire tracks ought to have slowly faded but they ended abruptly as if they were stopped due to knocking into a hard thing.
"So strange!"
The old policeman said, "Who was that brat? Did you see what he was doing while standing in the middle of the street?"
The young policeman replied, "It looked like he was holding a currency note between his fingers and chanting an incantation."
"Chanting an incantation?!"
"Was that brat a Shaman?"
"Aren't the Shamans just scammers?"
After easily obtaining 200 RMB, Jiang Xiu came to the convenience store to buy a can of iced cola. After drinking it, he walked back towards the school. The booming sound of the Ferrari resonated at his ears again. It passed by him with a whoosh and directly entered the campus.
Nangong Kou'er came down the car and noticed Jiang Xiu, her eyes widening in surprise.
"It's you again!"
"Hehe, Hehehe!"
Jiang Xiu laughed indifferently as if he was looking at air, completely ignoring her.
It was an indifference rising from the soul!
Nangong Kou'er was quite enraged, "Stop right there!"
If this Deity stops on your command, wouldn't that make this Deity lose face? Jiang Xiu showed his back to her elegantly as he strode inside the school in big strides.
"So you won't stop, huh?"
"I already know you study at this school. If you don't stop, I'll call for the police to grab you."
Nangong Kou'er played with the car keys using her slender fingers, feeling as if everything was in her grasp.
"What is it?"
As she had expected, Jiang Xiu stopped.
"Are you also in 12th Grade?"
Jiang Xiu replied reluctantly, "That's right!"
"Do you know someone named Jiang Xiu then?"
Indeed, just as Jiang Xiu had speculated, Nangong Kou'er had come looking for him. He guessed that she planned to look at him from afar and then leave.
"Mhm!"
Nangong Kou'er said, "Show me the way then but don't let him discover us."
"Hehe, Hehehe…"
Jiang Xiu had already planned something. Since this girl was so annoying, he wanted to embarrass her. You think this Deity is so easy to bully?
Therefore, the two of them walked into the campus.
The sunshine on a Sunday afternoon was bright, it felt quite comforting and pleasant. The branches of the trees on both sides made rustling sounds due to the wind and students were roaming around everywhere. There were a few couples walking shoulder to shoulder and also occasionally holding hands. Just that alone seemed too excessive and caused the girl to lower her head while blushing.
Nangong Kou'er suddenly discovered that she and Jiang Xiu were walking together. It made them appear as if they were sweethearts like those couples that passed by. She felt her face become warm.
"Your school's ambiance is pretty good!"
Nangong Kou'er finally began to speak human-like words. Just what language were the words Young Lady Kou'er spoke before?
"That's Jiang Xiu!"
Jiang Xiu shamelessly pointed towards a huge 100-kilo fatty, the schoolboy even had a huge mole on his face and his black teeth were out in full view when he grinned. Who knows what kinds of insects were inside there? This student was called Yu Daguang, he was the young master of the Daguang Conglomerate. His family's assets weren't lacking.
According to Jiang Xiu's experience, Nangong Kou'er would never try to confirm Yu Daguang's identity.
He noticed the trace of despair passing through Nangong Kou'er's eyes as her face paled. She clenched her firsts as her shoulders trembled. Her final hope was shattered. She had an extravagant hope that Jiang Xiu would be like the Prince Charming of her delusions but reality had smashed that beautiful dream.
"H-He's Jiang Xiu?"
Jiang Xiu didn't even blink, "Right, he's Jiang Xiu!"
Nangong Kou'er said, "You aren't deceiving me, right?"
"What will this Deity get from cheating you?" Jiang Xiu assumed an astonished expression, "Do you not know him? Why did you come to find him then?"
Nangong Kou'er's gaze seemed absent-minded as if she had lost her soul. She mocked herself, forcing out a smile.
"I should've anticipated this before."
She, Nangong Kou'er was unmatched in her magnificent style, but she had to marry this kind of man.
She felt grief towards her fate.
As she thought of this, her eyes became red, appearing as if she was about to cry.
"Why are you crying? Don't cry. Won't others think this Deity has done something to you?"
"You actually…"
Nangong Kou'er stubbornly wiped her tears. She was unwilling to show weakness in front of anyone, "This Young Lady wasn't careful. Sand had blown into my eyes just now."
"This Deity that Deity, can't you speak human language?"
"Are you a Shaman or something?"
Jiang Xiu also couldn't bear it, "Right, I can even predict fate by looking at facial features. Nangong Kou'er, right? You're blessed with riches and honor in this lifetime. There's no need to worry."
Nangong Kou'er said, "Right, you can guess that just by looking at me. I even drive a Ferrari."
Jiang Xiu said, "This Deity has inferred that you have a marriage predestined by fate…"
"An engagement was set in your childhood. Your husband's family name is Jiang."
This time, Nangong Kou'er was shocked. She thought, Isn't this too mysterious?
"Only, you never accomplish this marriage set by fate in the end and will get married to an admirable and genius banker."
Nangong Kou'er asked excitedly, "Really?"
"This Deity's calculations are absolute."
Since he figured out that I have an engagement, he must be speaking the truth. The previously distressed Nangong Kou'er now seemed like a happy bird, "You really are a Shaman. Right, strange things have happened 2-3 times at my uncle's construction site. Since you're a Shaman, why don't you look into it? You might earn a small amount."
Nangong Kou'er had a keen gaze. With a single look at his outfit, she figured out that Jiang Xiu was having a shortage of money.
