Where is my 5 million?? (2)
Jiang Nian was an actress in her previous life. However she ended up dying in an accident before she could become famous. As a quester for the Lord God, she has been diligently working to collect female aura. Her current goal is to finish the task perfectly and save the world from collapsing so that she can get enough points for a rebirth in her original world.
It’s just that every time there is a lot of twists and turns, the most troublesome thing for Jiang Nian so far is that once the female aura rises to 60, she will always encounter bottlenecks. The system told her that this bottleneck can only be broken using big or small conflicts. It could be something like a car accident, incurable cancer or “I don’t say anything, you try to explain but I just won’t listen” type misunderstandings, in simple terms: tormenting each other to deepen their love.
Of course, these misunderstandings will eventually have to be resolved, and the feelings for each other will rise to the extreme! Therefore, as long as the bottleneck is broken, the female aura will have a chance to reach one hundred which is considered as completing the task.
Recently, Jiang Nian has been experiencing a bottleneck.
Her female aura has been stuck at 60% for quite a while, and she is worried.
Yao Shuqin had come to her with a cheque and the outside world is talking about Shen Ming being engaged to Yang Huiling. However, it seems that this is not enough conflicts.
Jiang rubbed her forehead while thinking about how she and Shen Ming fell in love. Except for at the beginning when he chased her like a typical Mary Su idol drama, they hardly had any conflicts after determining their relationship.  Of course, this relationship is limited to when Jiang Nian and Shen Ming get along. Once separated, Jiang Nian doesn’t think much about Shen Ming. When she can’t see him, she never thinks about him unless she sends him texts about what he is doing and so on. She even finds the lace news(online made-up scandals) about him interesting so her days have been very easy going. It doesn’t even feel like they are in love.
So she is particularly excited about the upcoming fight! She gets to be a jealous girlfriend. Do what she needs to do to be an insecure little girl!
Jiang Nian’s preparations have been done well but, Shen Ming still hasn’t contacted her for the last two days. This is of course better. Jiang Nian is very happy. The quarrel can be lengthened. She feels like she is full of fighting spirit!
Like this, three days went by, she hadn’t heard any news from Shen Ming. On the contrary, his engagement with Yang Huiling seems even more real. Lin Xiaoyue had always been paying attention to anything related to this. Right now, her head is full of opinions about this matter. “Jiang Nian, has Shen Ming said anything to you yet? Why do I feel like these rumours are actually true? I heard that his father especially likes Yang Huiling.”
Jiang Nian was still practicing the fight in her mind, and she replied with distractedly: “No, He hasn’t contacted me yet. He is very busy these days.”
Lin Aria shook his head helplessly, sympathetically patted her on the shoulder saying: “You should not be so sad. ”
Jiang Nian:  “……..?”
During the morning class, she heard her classmates gossiping about Shen Ming. There is no one who doesn’t know of the Shen enterprise, let alone the business genius, Shen Ming. When he had come to A university to give a speech once, not to mention the fact that the classrooms were full, but even the aisles and windows were crowded with people. His popularity can even be on par with celebrities. (T/N: Ahhh… The perks of a Male lead aura.)
Jiang Nian listened to them say that if Shen and Yang family’s children really get married, then the size of both families will not only expand, but the stock will also go up, and this may be the perfect time to buy stocks.
She started to fantasize that if she had taken that five million then right now she could have bought those shares to make a small fortune.
After getting her fill of gossip, Jiang Nian went to the cafeteria with Lin Xiaoyue. She had just walked into the canteen, when Shen Ming finally called.
“Are your classes over? Let’s go and have dinner together.”
The man’s voice was mellow and sexy, but at the same time it was gentle to her. Because of this gentleness, the voive sounded even better in her ears. Her ears became red from blushing.
Jiang Nian: “Yes! Where are you now?”
Lin Xiaoyue: “…” why is your answer so chipper? where is the drama?
Shen Ming seemed to have been infected by the excitement in her voice. He chuckled: “At your school gate, come out.”
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Nian turned around and told Lin Xiaoyue that she was going out to eat with Shen Ming. She should just eat by herself.
“…” Lin Xiaoyue was still a little angry so she said, “Shen Ming disappeared for so long without sending even a single text and there has been no explanation for the news. Now that he is suddenly back, how can you actually be so happy?!”
Jiang Nian was already walking towards the exit and ignoring Lin Xiaoyue, thinking that her little friend is just so naĂŻve! This is clearly the tranquillity before the storm.
Jiang Nian walked out of the school gate and saw a luxurious Maserati under the banyan tree on the side of the road. The window was lowered. The man had an elbow on the window with a cigar placed between his fingers. The handsome face looked enchanting under the soft glow of the sunset.
Xu Chao opened the door for her and she sat next to Shen Ming.
The man has already put out the cigarette, looked at her slightly and said, “I have been too busy recently. Did anything happen at school?”
The man’s eyes were very aggressive, even though he is simply looking at her, she couldn’t look at his eyes directly. (T/N:errrr…. Um ok. But how they date tho. )
Jiang Nian certainly said nothing: “It’s pretty good, nothing happened.”
Shen Ming sighed: “That’s good.”
Jiang Nian looked at him and asked: “Why have you been busy recently?”
He frowned slightly: “There are some things that I need to deal with. I may be more busy later. You should stay in school and not think about other things.”
In the evening, they ate Western food  at a  Michelin restuarant.
Jiang Nian cut the steak silently and yet could not help but look at Shen Ming. His action of even cutting the steak  and drinking red wine looked elegant and free.
The atmosphere at dinner was too good; with the soothing piano sound playing in the background and delicious food, it was easy to forget all the troubles in the world.
Jiang Nian almost forgot about the business, the steak was almost finished when she remembered that she hasn’t yet fought with Shen Ming. She looked up at Shen Ming, who was eating quietly, took a sip of the red wine glass, coughed, and it was finally time to start her show. She even got herself all fired up inside!
“Shen Ming, what a coincidence! I didn’t expect to meet you again here.”
Jiang Ning coughed: “….?” B-But… my show!
A woman’s voice suddenly came, Jiang Nian looked up and saw a woman wearing a yellow short skirt, long scarf and exquisite jewelry. She had a soft and beautiful look, and a graceful temperament.
Yang Huiling.
… Isn’t this supposed to be an overly loud fight?! This is clearly where I would cry like crazy and wouldn’t listen to any of your ‘I am sorry, I am sorry’ …?
She been painstakingly preparing for this argument for three days! She has been prepared to be strong and not listen to any of the male lord’s explanations!  And when they finally couldn’t stand the drama, they would break  up and start a new typical Mary Su Idol drama!! Isn’t it time to finally test her acting skills on the spot?!
Shen Ming also saw Yang Huiling and he politely said: “Miss Yang.”
Yang Huiling came over and looked at Shen Ming: ” I am currently following up on the global project, I will go to Shen tomorrow. At the same time, I hope that you can do a few things for me.”
She talked about official business, but did not mention much else. In addition, she did not look at Jiang Nian in the eye . In fact, she did not look at Jiang Nian at all…
Jiang Nian observed the eyes of Shen Ming. They did not reveal the slightest unpleasantness to Miss Yang, but it could be seen that he respected her work ability. There was clearly nothing going on there.
Yang Huiling was very happy after talking to him and smirked. It seemed that she finally discovered that Jiang Nian was there as well and said, “Hello, you are Jiang Nian? I heard about you in the morning. I didn’t expect to finally see you.”
Jiang Nian looked at Shen Ming, who was frowning slightly. “Hello, Miss Yang. I am Jiang Nian.”
Yang Huiling smiled and did not say anything more. She turned back to Shen Ming and said: “Qin Lei And Yao Lin said that they will go to the Star Emperor to play at night. Do you want to go together? They also said that they haven’t gone drinking with you for a long time because of how busy you have been. It’s rare for everyone to have time to get together, so won’t you go?”
Shen Ming’s eyes became cold and he replied: “No, I still have something to do. If Miss Yang has nothing else, please leave.”
He said it so directly that is that very clear that he was rushing her out. Yang Huiling was very upset and still continued “But it is rare for everyone to make time and we all used to be so close…”
Yang Huiling  was unwilling to leave like this, and couldn’t help but look at Jiang Nian. She had to admit that Jiang Nian looks very good. It is a type of beauty that makes men want to bring her under their wings for protection. Her pair of big black watery eyes look very beautiful that people can’t help but like them. She looks so pure and fresh.
However, Yang Huiling cannot and will never like Jiang Nian because she loves Shen Ming, and Jiang Nian is his girlfriend.
“I think Jiang Nian seems to be very interested. Shen Ming, why don’t you bring your girlfriend with you? Isn’t it about time for us to become familiar with your girlfriend?”
Shen Mingwei turned look at Jiang Nian in front of him with enquiry in his eyes.
Jiang Nian: “I could go.”
Shen Ming: “Then let’s go.”
Jiang Nian has not seen Shen Ming’s friends yet, he has always been so busy. Moreover, his work always comes first and he hates noisy crowded places. Jiang Nian also has school. So, in their free time, they mostly go on dates by having dinner or watching a movie in the private theatre of his villa. He would even have to drive her back home at night because she had class the next day.
Of course, this is not Jiang Nian’s first time coming to the Star Emporer. Although it is the best entertainment place in City A and the consumption rate is really as high as at least five figures, there are some small rich people in her class who have given treats here several times already.
Jiang Nian took Shen Ming’s arm to the Star Emperor VIP room. There were already many people sitting there, the music was loud, the mahjong and the billiards were surrounded by people, and some of them were women Jiangyan had only ever seen on TV. As soon as Shen Ming appeared here with Jiang Nian, they instantly attracted a lot of attention. It is only because the person is Shen Ming that no one dared to joke around, only respectfully said hello to Shen Ming and his girlfriend. Qin Lei who was close to Shen Ming came forward and exclaimed, “So you are finally willing to bring out your little girlfriend?”
Jiang Nian had met Qin Lei before and so went forward to make small talk with him.
Qin Lei smiled and couldn’t help but whisper to Shen Ming: “Your real girlfriend and rumoured fiancee are here, aren’t you scared?”
Shen Ming lit a cigarette, and gave Qin Lei a look: “Close your Dog mouth.
There were quite few people watching the show this evening. Jiang Nian herself was also a little nervous. She was thinking about how she should not only shout during the fight this evening but also scream and cry, say that she can’t trust him anymore and that they should break…
The play must be staged today! She has been preparing for three days for this after all!
