Quick Transmigration: The Mad Beauty Refuses to Be the Scapegoat! Chapter 485 - 42: The Cannon Fodder Stepsister Doesn’t Want

Until here, everyone thought Jiang Lai could stop.

Because she had achieved everything every student dreams of, honors, dals, and admission to her dream university.

But she still continued.

Jiang Ci didn’t stop either, soon after entering the national team, becoming one of only two mbers from the entire school and even the entire province.

The first sester of senior year ended.

After the new sester began, a familiar face appeared in the class.

Jiang Lai was reading with her head down when suddenly a bottle of milk was placed in front of her, followed by a voice from above.

"Jiang Lai, aren’t you going to stand up and welco our new classmate?"

The voice was full of amusent, as bold and teasing as ever.

If you listened carefully, there was a hint of bragging and showing off.

Jiang Lai looked up at the boy in front of her wearing a neatly dressed school uniform, modestly handso, and smiled at him.

"Hello new classmate, I’m Shen Weizhou. Please take care of in the future."

"Hmm, you ca too late. At most, I can only look after you for half a year."

Shen Weizhou shrugged it off with a smile.

"No worries, there are still many days to co. Just keep moving forward; I promise that if you look back, I’ll always be behind you."

Shen Weizhou was not exaggerating; he spent a year getting to the top science class, and then another half year to get into the university closest to Jiang Lai.

When he received the admission letter, Shen Weizhou posted a status update on WeChat, posing dramatically but looking cool, with a line of small text under the bright red admission notice.

"I want to study hard, I love to study hard, I want to find my ’Study Hard’."

It was only then that everyone realized, in hindsight, that the "Study Hard" in his WeChat na for two years was actually a girl. This guy had been her dedicated admirer for over two years, achieving legendary transformation from a failing student to a top perforr on the national exam.

Only when the admission letter was placed in front of the parents, who had navigated business with great success for decades, did Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen finally believe that their child had indeed been admitted to one of the best universities in the country!

Mr. Shen was overjoyed and held a grand graduation banquet for his son, inviting all the classmates from his class to attend.

Forty people in the class, the others didn’t matter, Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen wanted to see just one person.

They had heard long ago that this girl had already been pre-admitted by a top university in the first sester of her senior year, and not long ago, led the national team to win two gold dals and one silver on the global stage, becoming a key talent for national cultivation.

Mr. Shen was imnsely satisfied with this.

And when Jiang Lai appeared, her beautiful face and outstanding temperant struck directly at Mrs. Shen’s aesthetic taste.

The Shen family had everything but was currently in need of a good daughter-in-law.

Jiang Lai was perfect in every way.

The Jiang family’s business was also doing well, not holding back their daughter; Jiang Lai herself was diligent and ambitious, and most importantly, she could lead her son to strive and progress together.

At the graduation banquet, Mrs. Shen wished she could imdiately turn it into an engagent party to secure Jiang Lai as a daughter-in-law as soon as possible.

During the al, Mrs. Shen directly arranged for Jiang Lai to sit beside her.

Such treatnt, anyone could see Mrs. Shen’s intention.

At the end of the banquet, Mrs. Shen warmly held Jiang Lai’s hand and chatted with her, ignoring Shen Weizhou’s looks, Mrs. Shen straightforwardly asked.

"Our Weizhou, I heard he got into Qing University for you. Honestly, since the day he was born, I didn’t have such high expectations for him. I knew his heart wasn’t in studying. That’s why seeing him so steady now makes even more curious about what kind of girl the one my son likes is."

Mrs. Shen’s attitude was friendly, while Jiang Ci’s gaze was cold.

Standing at the door, Jiang Ci waited until Jiang Lai appeared before calling for a car.

"Jiang Lai, it’s getting late, let’s go ho."

Seeing Shen Weizhou still trying to talk to her, Jiang Ci directly reminded him.

Shen Weizhou didn’t care about him, took out sothing he’d prepared a while ago from his pocket, and handed it to Jiang Lai.

"This, I bought it a long ti ago and never had the chance to give it to you.

Today I’ve finally caught up to you, and finally have the qualification to present this to you."

Jiang Lai looked at the box in her hand; opening it, inside was a dazzling sapphire.

"You said you liked eternal things, so I bought this. Underneath is engraved with your na. It’s the most eternal gift I could find."

"Before you give this, won’t you first ask if I like you?"

"I won’t ask."

"What if I accept your gift but don’t like you, what will you do?"

Shen Weizhou quietly looked at her.

"I said I would always be behind you. I will let you know that no one in this world likes you more than , Shen Weizhou. This is sothing you need not discover, because I will prove it to you."

Jiang Lai couldn’t help but laugh.

"Then you should do your best. I have no intention of dating right now, because I still have things to accomplish."

"No worries, no worries, I won’t disturb you."

Jiang Lai closed the box and pushed it back into Shen Weizhou’s hand.

"This is not sothing I want."

As she turned, the car Jiang Ci ordered just arrived. He had been quietly standing beside her, waiting, then left with Jiang Lai.

Jiang Lai lowered the car window, looking at the flickering neon lights outside, bustling and vibrant.

"Jiang Lai, why did you choose the dical school?"

Jiang Lai didn’t turn her head.

"Because of you."

Jiang Ci subconsciously held his breath, forcing himself to remain calm, looking at Jiang Lai’s profile.

He could never understand Jiang Lai’s thoughts.

Even with all these years of effort, he couldn’t discern where Jiang Lai’s limits were.

In every competitive encounter, he unknowingly started to regard Jiang Lai as a fellow warrior, a relationship that was unspoken but clear as day. He had never shown goodwill towards Jiang Lai first, but he always believed Jiang Lai understood his thoughts.

In this mont, his thoughts were confird.

In Jiang Lai’s heart, he had a place.

At least, it was much higher than Shen Weizhou.

Because on this path of striving and fighting, he had always been beside Jiang Lai.

"Jiang Lai, can you repeat what you just said?"

"I said I studied dicine because of you.

Many people think I studied dicine for my mom, but of course not. I know my mom’s illness can’t be cured by ten, twenty years of dical study.

But your eyes are different. As long as I try hard enough, I can definitely cure your eyes."

In that mont, Jiang Lai’s words were like a warm current, enveloping his entire being from top to bottom.

Jiang Ci had never so desperately wanted soone’s approval and affection as he did now, never had been so filled with nervous excitent.

Her words carried an imnse weight for Jiang Ci.
