Chapter 25 The Meaning of the Knight and the Princess

Chapter 25 The Meaning of the Knight and the Princess
In the school, under the dim street lights.

Jiang Ning stood at the entrance of the corridor with her arms folded across her chest. Her delicate temperament, set off by the warm light, had an indescribable hazy beauty.

But the half-smile on his face made Li Mingwei's heart beat fast.

But as soon as he thought about what he was going to do tonight, Li Mingwei's heart suddenly calmed down.

At this time, Hu Gugu on the side suddenly said awkwardly:

"Well, I have something else to do at home, so I'll leave first."

After saying this, he was ready to run away, but before he had taken two steps, someone grabbed him by the collar.

"Don't leave!"

"If you leave you'll die!"

Those were words full of threats. In response, Hu Gugu could only hide behind an angle where he could not be seen and showed a helpless expression to Li Mingwei.

Then he turned around and said cheerfully to the pretty figure:
"Master Jiang, what brings you here today?"

"Hidden Head Wind!"

Jiang Ning looked back at the passers-by who were watching the excitement not far away, and said to the two people in front of him:
"Change somewhere!"

After they finished speaking, the three of them moved to the side of the teaching building, a corner where not even the light could reach.

After stopping.

Jiang Ning was the first to ask:

"Xiao Mingwei, let's be honest. I haven't cheated you, have I?"

"No." Li Mingwei answered very straightforwardly, without any hesitation.

"As far as I can remember, I haven't done anything to let you down, right?"

"No." Li Mingwei's answer was still straightforward.

This abnormal state unexpectedly made Jiang Ning feel a little strange.

But she didn't think much about it, and continued to ask:

"So, what's the trick you played today?"

After a long silence, Li Mingwei's voice suddenly came out from the darkness.

"A few days ago, an elder said to me."

"He said that his personality back then was very similar to mine, reserved and not ostentatious, especially when it came to the person he liked."

"Always guarding silently behind the scenes."

"Later he told me that if I continued like this, I would always be just a knight."

"And the princess will only be with the prince."

"So, I don't want to be a knight anymore."

"Jiang Ning, I..."

Having said this, Jiang Ning suddenly felt uneasy, and immediately interrupted:

"stop."

"I know what you're going to say."

"Stop, let me ask you a few questions first."

"You say." Li Mingwei's voice was very calm, but if you listened carefully, you could still hear some ups and downs in his words.

But Jiang Ning didn't care about this, because she knew that some signs had reached a point where they had to be dealt with.

"It's only been about a month since we met. Do you really know me?"

"Do you know my character?"

"Do you know what I like?"

"Do you know my family situation?"

"The most important thing is, if your family knew what you are like now, would they support you?"

After a series of questions, not only Li Mingwei fell silent, but even Hu Gugu beside him fell silent.

Jiang Ning couldn't bear to see these two children silenced by such truths, but she had to say something.

Just like my aunt said.

Since you don't like it, you have to break up.

Thinking about it, Jiang Ning took a step forward, patted Li Mingwei on the shoulder, and said earnestly:

"I know that my questions are like a bucket of cold water directly on your face."

"But I also hope you understand what I mean."

"Because I don't like you."

After saying that, she left.

------

I don’t know if the rejection that night had an effect.

Over the past few days, fewer and fewer high school seniors came to visit, and the senior schoolmates who came to cause trouble have never shown up even once.

Don't even know what's going on.

Wang Zekai, who used to wander around the garage every night, has disappeared in the past few days.

Given up in the face of difficulty?
Gee tut.

What a joy.

As for that bastard Li Mingwei.

After making things clear that night, he took two days off and went home.

I heard that he was a completely changed person when he came back.

I became more studious, and every day I was either doing exercises or reading books.

They didn't even go to the game hall. Hu Gugu asked Jiang Ning more than once whether he had drugged Li Mingwei.

This made her roll her eyes.

However, Jiang Ning was sometimes a little confused about what happened to Li Mingwei on the day he returned home.

But it's just pure curiosity.

The only problem now is that every day when Jiang Ning goes to class, he always receives several love letters of different colors in his drawer.

Basically, they are all those fixed names.

Gao Ye, the long-haired handsome boy from Class 1, Chen Chaoyang, the sports committee member of Class 2, Li Wei, the melancholy male god from Class 4, Tian Huali, the study committee member, what’s the name of the funny guy from Class 5…

In short, they are people whose names we know but whose appearance we don’t know.

Jiang Ning also dealt with these love letters directly.

Usually they throw it into the trash can without even looking at it.

Only when I was in a good mood would I open a few letters and read them together with Luo Shanshan and the others.

that's it.

A week passed.

It’s time for Jiang Ning’s ‘Shi Ning Ji’ to open…

Tuesday, September 26th.

The 29th day of the eighth lunar month.

Suitable for opening a business, traveling, moving, and raising the beam...

Jiang Ning got up early in the morning.

I went to school first, talked to the teacher and after repeated assurances, I successfully asked for half a day off.

Then I went out and found a firecracker shop.

I bought a string of firecrackers with a thousand bangs, put them on my bicycle, and swayed to the door of my own shop.

Today is the opening day of my first small shop in my life.

Looking at the small shop in front of him that was the result of his hard work, Jiang Ning felt very happy.

Then she began to set up the venue.

When Jiang Ning had just placed the firecrackers, Tian Wenhao stopped on a tricycle with a few flower baskets in tow.

Seeing these flower baskets, Jiang Ning immediately slapped himself on the forehead.

I was wondering why it felt weird, it turns out there was no flower basket...

It’s all because I’ve done too many exams these days and I’m dizzy.

Jiang Ning quickly adjusted his mentality, then quickly stepped forward to help Tian Wenhao take down the flower basket.

At this time, the two girls who were hired before also came to the store.

Then, after a busy period of work by the four people, the preparations for the opening of "Shi Ning Ji" were finally completed.

But just when Jiang Ning was considering whether to set off some firecrackers to liven up the atmosphere.

Another tricycle carrying a flower basket stopped in front of the store.

Then, the master in the car put down the flower basket and left without saying a word.

No matter how much Jiang Ning shouted from behind, it was useless.

Seeing the master walking away, Jiang Ning could only turn around and stare at the words on the flower basket in a daze with Tian Wenhao.

'Jiangzhou Women's Federation congratulates 'Shi Ning Ji' on its successful opening'...

"Cousin, when did you get to know the leader of the Women's Federation?"

"Isn't it someone you know, Ningning?"

Well, after both sides heard the words, they were dumbfounded.

But just as they were staring at each other, another tricycle, driven by the same driver, still pulling two large flower baskets, stopped at the door of the store.

Put it down, get in the car, and run, all in one go.

Jiang Ning even suspected whether this master had any side job in the past.

'Jin Mahua Decoration Company celebrates the successful opening of 'Shi Ning Ji'...

Very good, this understanding.

That is the decoration company that cooperates with my store.

It’s just that they are a big company with hundreds of employees. Why would they send a flower basket to a snack bar of theirs?
Jiang Ning felt that this matter was filled with inexplicable weirdness.

Just as Jiang Ning and Tian Wenhao were staring at each other at the door.

Two women were sitting in a car not far away.

The one driving the car was full of charm, and every move he made was full of unique style.

The middle-aged woman sitting in the back was much more plain.

At this moment, both of them were staring at the store that was about to open not far away.

After a while, the middle-aged woman sighed softly.

"Capable, has personality, and good looks."

"This girl is really good."

"pity…"

"What a pity, Mom." Li Mingyu couldn't help but ask in the driving seat.

"Unfortunately, what our family needs is a match of equal status."
