Chapter 12: Unfamiliar
Sheng Ming Si's tone clearly lacked patience. "Shut up."
Gu Mingmei understood him very well; now was not the time for jokes.
"So, what's going on now? Can we leave?"

Glancing once again at the dumbfounded beauty in his arms, Gu Mingmei smile...

Who was that just asking?

Suddenly, she nodded.

Zhang Lanmei was stunned, staring at Jiang Chenchen in disbelief. However, her eyes were lifeless, as if made of wood.

Sheng Mingsi glanced at the person outside the car with a cold and direct tone.
At the same time, he took out a handkerchief and wiped the part of the car window where Jiang Zhong had just approached, showing impatience in his movements.

He didn't plan to dwell on this topic and wanted to ask the question he cared about more.
Before he could speak, Jiang Chenchen had moved closer. Her wet hair stuck to her face, and water droplets slid down her fair skin.
She closed her eyes, and as the drops rolled down her cheeks into her collar, Sheng Mingsi couldn't comprehen...

Jiang Chenchen had already climbed up from the grass, seemingly unharmed.
Jiang Zhong's suppressed anger immediately erupted. He couldn't stand such unruly behavior, even if she was mentally ill!

Jiang Chenchen stared at the numerous ice creams in front of her but didn't reach for any.
She lowered her gaze, and in those seemingly calm eyes, a hint of pain emerged.
Abruptly, she closed her eyes, covered her head with both hands, and crouched on the ground. She remained silent for a long time.
Painful and quiet?!
