Chapter 31 - 31 Where Can a Toad Get Swan Meat



Chapter 31: Chapter 31 Where Can a Toad Get Swan Meat

"Dang it," Ji Tian shook her head, determined not to learn it if it killed her.

But the old man with white hair was just as stubborn, and he chuckled, "Old man's medical skill is now destined to be passed on to you."

Ji Tian: "..."

Snake Spirit Illness.

The three kidnapper brothers were scared by Ji Tian and were now bumbling around in this broken kitchen cooking for her.

Whose fist is as hard as iron? Anyway, they had now seen for themselves.

Had they known they couldn't find jobs, earn money, afford meals, and would end up getting beaten up, they'd have stayed in prison for the rest of their lives.

At least there you get food and shelter, plus they let you work for a little spending money.

The more the three brothers thought about it, the more they regretted it, wishing the police would come now so they could go back and freeload until they died.

[Ding, Faith Value +3, Laziness Power 9%, one more grid until the first skill is unlocked, please keep up the effort, Host.]

Ji Tian, who was sitting and waiting for her meal: "?"

Why did she suddenly gain three faith points?

This time, she decisively allocated all three points to her Luck Value, hoping to be lucky enough to pick up money on the street.

The cooking skills of the three kidnappers were nothing to boast about, but Ji Tian wasn't picky, as long as she could stomach it, she ate it all up, and it tasted pretty good.

She filled a bowl of rice porridge for Qin Jiangsheng: "Once you're full, we can go home."

Saying this, she also casually picked up a piece of vegetable for him with her chopsticks.

Ji Tian held back bitter tears in her heart, now treating Qin Jiangsheng even better than herself, only hoping that the big villain had a shred of conscience and would rescue her from dire straits in the future.

She was pinning all her hopes on him.

Meanwhile, Qin Jiangsheng's feelings were undergoing some changes. He couldn't quite put his finger on the reason, but suddenly he wanted to see just how far Ji Tian would go for him, whether it was sincere or just pretense; time would prove it.

Half an hour later, Ji Tian had the three men massage her shoulders.

They didn't dare defy her, and the scene was somewhat eerie yet unexpectedly harmonious.

Suddenly noise came from outside, and the rickety wooden door was kicked open. Ji Lingyun and Ji Qilin arrived, each carrying a metal box.

The group exchanged glances, and the air went still.

Ji Tian immediately realized what was happening: "Wah wah wah, big brother, you've finally come. I've been waiting for you for so long."

Ji Lingyun: "..."

He looked at the three who had been beaten black and blue. He saw a moment ago that these three were massaging her shoulders like servants.

This place didn't look like a kidnapping scene at all, more like an assault scene.

Seeing that Ji Tian was safe, the policemen who had been on standby outside also rushed in.

Fei Long cried as he ran forward: "Wah wah wah, you've finally come. I've been waiting for you so long, please take me away."

Baldie and Skinny also extended their hands, asking the police to handcuff them too: "We're volunteering."

Police: "..."

Have they gone mad? This is the first time I've seen people volunteer for jail.

The police took the three into the car, and Ji Tian watched them go with reluctance, thinking if she couldn't change her fate in the future, she'd end up the same way, and suddenly felt a kinship with them.

With tears in her eyes, she waved: "You guys go ahead. I'll come visit you when I've got some time."

The three: "..."

They sped up their steps, urging, "Hurry up, we don't want to see her again."

The police car quickly left.

Ji Lingyun breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing she was unharmed, "Let's also head back."

Exasperated, Ji Qilin agreed, "It's good that you're safe. Let's not let mom and dad know about this, so they won't worry about us from so far away."

Ji Tian nodded, looking around, "Eh, where's my third brother? Why didn't he come?"

"He went to see a movie with a girl, and we didn't let him know about this."

Ji Tian: "..."

Hadn't she thrown that letter away?

"Let's go, let's go home."

Ji Lingyun turned and walked away.

Ji Tian immediately ran into the house and pulled Qin Jiangsheng out with her, "And my friend, he was kidnapped with me. Let's take him home too." @@novelbin@@

Ji Qilin's gaze swiftly swept over Qin Jiangsheng's face - he was too striking to easily forget.

He raised his eyebrows slightly, "The Bai Family's Second Young Master is also here. Might as well take you back with us."

To speak kindly, he's the Second Young Master, but no one recognized him as such, and Qin Jiangsheng sure didn't care for the title.

Ji Qilin's gaze landed on Ji Tian's hand, holding the young man's pale wrist - it looked very natural, very affectionate.

Stepping forward as if by accident, he separated the two. Ji Tian chased after Ji Lingyun's figure, and the two men trailed behind. He placed his hand on Qin Jiangsheng's shoulder and said quietly, "Our little sister has a kind heart, Second Young Master Bai. Don't repay kindness with enmity and set your sights on her."

Qin Jiangsheng understood Ji Qilin's words - he was saying that his status did not match Ji Tian and that he should not get any ideas. After all, how could a toad aspire to eat swan meat?

What Qin Jiangsheng detested in his life the most were warnings and threats. His lips slowly curved into a radiant smile, like a poppy blossoming in the darkness, beautiful yet fatally toxic.

"What if I don't?"

In the dark, their gazes locked - Qin Jiangsheng's light and defiant, with a sickly gleam.

Ji Qilin smiled warmly, "Then let's see if you can bear the consequences."

They had arrived in a helicopter, and naturally, they would leave by helicopter. The space inside was just enough to accommodate a pilot and the four of them.

Ji Tian had gone from excitement over riding in a helicopter to fighting to keep her eyes open.

Mid-flight, she suddenly perked up: "Oh no, I forgot about that old man."

Ji Lingyun, who was working on his tablet at the co-pilot's seat, removed his headphones, "What old man?"

Ji Tian scratched her head, "Just, just a con artist old man. He wanted me to give him my gold chain in exchange for teaching me medical skills, as if I would fall for such a low-level scam."

Hearing about medical skills, Ji Qilin pondered, "What does he look like?"

"White hair, scruffy-looking, and with a long white beard," Ji Tian finally surmised, "Like a beggar."

"He's quite pitiful too, being kidnapped and his family wouldn't even pay to redeem him, left to fend for himself."

Ji Tian's description was too biased for Ji Qilin to know who it could be, so he had to assume it was just a con artist.

Qin Jiangsheng glanced at her and said indifferently, "By the time your brothers arrived, he had already climbed out the window, and took your gold chain with him."

Ji Tian: "..."

She reached up to touch her neck.

Great, no wonder she felt like something was missing; it turned out her neck was relieved of its burden.

"That nasty old man, not only is he a swindler, but he's also a thief! I'll dig three feet into the ground to find him and retrieve my gold chain!"

Ji Lingyun put his headphones back in, "Don't bother looking, if you want, I'll give you another hundred chains."

Ji Tian: "..."

That's simply not the same.

Ji Tian sulked, certain it was while she was enjoying her three brothers massaging her shoulders with her eyes closed that he sneakily took it.
