After I Transmigrated, the Male Lead Blames Me for Not Loving Him - Chapter 18

Objection

Chen Ke’er didn’t want to doubt her nephew’s judgment of people, but everything Bai Xue did disgusted her. No wonder her family was against Li Yan and Bai Xue being together.

…

In the blink of an eye, there was only half a month before the Advanced Mathematics Competition.

However, Jiang Ling’er did not study extra hard just because of the competition. She went about her days casually as usual.

Wen Nuan was a little anxious when she saw Jiang Ling’er like this. Ever since Jiang Ling’er and Yue Ling made the bet, Wen Nuan had gotten someone to find a lot of information for Jiang Ling’er. However, Jiang Ling’er threw all the information into the desk and didn’t read it at all.

Wen Nuan held her coffee and asked, “Ling’er, aren’t you nervous about the upcoming competition?”

Jiang Ling’er smiled and took a sip of coffee. She said, “What’s there to panic about?”

It was just a simple exam. In her previous life, Jiang Ling’er did not even bother to participate.

The corners of Wen Nuan’s mouth twitched a few times. She said warmly, “Your careless expression is infuriating. You didn’t even read the information I gave you.”

Jiang Ling’er put down the coffee and said, “Little Nuan, are you doubting my capability? The information you gave me is not very useful to me.”

Wen Nuan was stunned for a moment. She frowned and said warmly, “How is it useless? Those are all learning materials that I hired someone to find. Ordinary people don’t have them even if they want them. You won’t lose if you read the materials carefully.”

Jiang Ling’er raised her head proudly. Jiang Ling’er said, “It’s really useless. Those materials will only waste my time.”

Wen Nuan suddenly felt unappreciated for all the effort that she put in. Wen Nuan snorted and said, “Hmph… Who knew that you hid it so well? I was really worried. What do you think your ranking would be in the first round?”

Jiang Ling’er leaned on the sofa and said, “There are many people participating this time. There are so many talents. I really can’t say what rank I’ll be in. I can guarantee that I’ll definitely be ranked above Yue Ling.”

When Wen Nuan saw Jiang Ling’er’s confidence, she felt much more at ease. She said warmly, “You’re so confident? When the time comes, you’ll be embarrassed.”

Jiang Ling’er smiled but said nothing.

When Wen Nuan saw Jiang Ling’er’s indifferent expression, the sense of security in her heart instantly disappeared. Wen Nuan said worriedly, “Ling’er, you’re not learning advanced mathematics anymore. How confident are you? I’m a little… I don’t know how to say it. Do you understand?”

Jiang Ling’er smiled and said, “I understand a little.”

Wen Nuan looked at Jiang Ling’er angrily and said, “I’m serious. I’m worried about you, you know?”

Seeing Wen Nuan’s worried face, Jiang Ling’er said, “Alright, I’ll tell you this. I never commit to do anything that I’m not confident in.”

Wen Nuan said disdainfully, “Hmph… Are you so confident, just like when you were pursuing Li Yan?”

Jiang Ling’er suddenly felt a little awkward. Jiang Ling’er said, “Heh… Can’t you tell that I’m just acting when it comes to Li Yan?”

Wen Nuan was speechless.

Wen Nuan was shocked. If it was really an act, wouldn’t it be too real? Jiang Ling’er had embarrassed herself countless times by chasing after Li Yan.

When Jiang Ling’er saw Wen Nuan’s shocked expression, she felt a little amused. Perhaps the original Jiang Ling’er really liked Li Yan. Otherwise, how could she not have any bottom line? However, the current Jiang Ling’er was not interested in Li Yan at all.

Jiang Ling’er said, “Little Nuan, you don’t really think that I like Li Yan that much, do you? Then you have really bad taste.”

Wen Nuan said in shock, “But…”

Before Wen Nuan could say anything, Jiang Ling’er interrupted her. She smiled and said, “Actually, I don’t like him at all. At that time, I just wanted to prove something.”

Wen Nuan asked in confusion, “What? What is it?”

Jiang Ling’er said proudly, “It proves that my acting skills are very good. It makes everyone think that I especially like Li Yan, that I can’t do it without Li Yan.”

Wen Nuan looked at Jiang Ling’er’s proud face and said, “Don’t try to be cheeky with me. There’s one more thing, did you pick another fight with Bai Xue?”

Jiang Ling’er had nothing to hide, so she nodded generously and said, “That’s right, but I can handle it. You don’t have to worry.”

Wen Nuan took a sip of coffee and said seriously, “If you have anything to say, tell me. You don’t have to treat me like an outsider, understand? Bai Xue always likes to incite your anger to distract you. Don’t fall for it, understand?”

Jiang Ling’er laughed disdainfully. If it were the original host of the body, she might have been angered by Bai Xue, but Jiang Ling’er would not. She said, “It’s fine. Her petty underhanded tricks won’t work on me. You really don’t have to worry.”
