Chapter 150 The Neighbor's Brother with Ulterior Motives 1
"Wanwan, this is Xiaobei, your uncle Ning's neighbor. What a coincidence, he and you were admitted to the same university. When Xiaobei enters school, you, as his senior, must take good care of him!"
Jiang Wan was originally just taking a casual glance, but when he saw the energetic, youthful and sunny brother in front of him, he couldn't hold back at all. He stared at Ning Bei with his eyes fixed, unable to move away.
That's not right. Wasn't the neighbor boy in my original memory a dark and thin boy? I haven't seen him for a few years, and he has become a completely different person!
Fortunately, when she learned about her target, she prepared herself mentally for a long time. It was not until she saw her brother's tall figure and handsome face that Jiang Wan was completely relieved.
That's right, this time she traveled to the modern society, and her original body was still a supporting female character as usual. She had been in the same class with the male protagonist Qin Lie since high school, and she chose the university to follow in the male protagonist's footsteps. In order to be closer to him, she even gave up her favorite art and applied for the law major which she did not like.
Unfortunately, no matter how sincere she is, she is worthless in the eyes of people who don't like her.
Not long after graduation, Qin Lie found his true love. The two of them often showed their affection in front of the original body, and the original body always felt heartbroken every time he saw it.
This was originally just a small matter of secret love, which would fade away after a while. However, in order to highlight the charm of the hero, the plot insisted that she, who had only once secretly loved the hero, should remain a virgin for him.
Therefore, in the original plot, even though the original body became a well-known lawyer with countless suitors around her, in the end she only relied on the thin and tall boy in her memory, and often recalled living a lonely life.
The original body saw Ning Bei in her memory after she retired. She chose to return to her hometown to live out her old age. Coincidentally, Ning Bei lived next door. They were both alone, and Jiang Wan only treated him as a younger brother. She would occasionally go to him for help when she encountered problems... Until the end of her life, the original body was still unclear about Ning Bei's feelings.
......
In the original plot, it was clearly summer vacation, but the original body was still working a part-time job outside. It was because he knew that Qin Lie's family was not well off, and he saw that he often borrowed other people's notebooks and was ridiculed by others, so he felt sorry for him and wanted to earn money to buy him a good notebook.
The original body always picked the best things for Ning Bei, but the Jiang family was just an ordinary working-class family. A notebook worth tens of thousands of yuan was beyond Jiang Wan's advance payment. She couldn't ask her parents for money, so she could only work hard part-time.
When Jiang Wan came over, she was still working part-time at a fried chicken shop, so after recalling the plot, Jiang Wan quickly received her salary, resigned, and bought a ticket home.
The original person had the spirit of dedication to work hard for others, but she didn't!
On the way back, Jiang Wan used the money she earned to buy a gold bracelet for her mother and a gold ring for her father. They were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling. They posted to the family group and Moments. In a short while, all the relatives knew that she was a very filial daughter!
Before my parents had posted on their Moments for long, Ning Bei from next door came over immediately.
Collecting the memories of the original body, Jiang Wan's impression of him was just a dark and thin little boy. She didn't even know that he was admitted to the same school as herself... The original body worked part-time outside during the winter and summer vacations during the four years of college. Maybe Ning Bei also came to find her in college, but unfortunately she never took it to heart, so she has very few memories of Ning Bei.
Seeing Jiang Wan's shock, Ning Bei suddenly relaxed and laughed, "Sister Wanwan, I haven't seen you for a long time!"
He had red lips and white teeth, a pair of obsidian eyes that were clear and bright. When he smiled, the two little canine teeth that appeared made Jiang Wan dream back to his school days, immersed in the strong atmosphere of youth.
Jiang Wan thought to himself that he was unlucky and didn't know what kind of beautiful scenery he had missed. However, he smiled politely and distantly and responded, "Yes, long time no see!"
Not long after the news spread, the video calls from Jiang's father and Jiang's mother could no longer be stopped, and only Jiang Wan and Ning Bei were left in the room.
I haven't seen you for a few years. Even though we were good friends when we were kids, it's still a little awkward when we meet now.
Ning Bei couldn't help himself and broke the deadlock, "Sister Wanwan hasn't been home for a few years. The house has changed a lot. You must not understand it! I am familiar with the house. If Sister Wanwan is free, I can take her out for a walk!"
When saying this, Ning Bei was also feeling uneasy.
He nervously stole a glance at Jiang Wan's face, and while waiting for Jiang Wan's response, even the corners of his slightly raised mouth twitched with nervousness.
"Okay, then I'll trouble you, Xiaobei."
The moment he got Jiang Wan's affirmative response, Ning Bei's eyes lit up instantly, as if a calm pool of water was suddenly injected with vitality and began to boil.
"Sister Wanwan, when are you free? How about tonight? Tonight will be our welcome party for you!" Ning Bei's smile was like a little sun, which could easily warm people's hearts.
Jiang Wan didn't refuse and just chuckled and nodded.
Ning Bei hurried home to prepare. In order to show her importance, Jiang Wan also picked up the few cosmetics she had and put on a decent light makeup.
If another man wanted to ask Jiang Wan out at night, Jiang's father and mother would definitely not agree. But who is Ning Bei? He is the little boy who grew up under their noses!
Wanwan goes out with him, which means they have a good relationship and a close relationship as siblings. They are completely relieved!
The sky was turning blue. Jiang Wan and Ning Bei were walking side by side. Jiang Wan didn't talk much and was a listener most of the time, so Ning Bei was the one chattering about interesting things the whole time. Even though the two of them hadn't been in touch for a long time and were a little unfamiliar with each other, their relationship was harmonious thanks to his efforts.
"Sister Wanwan, it's rare for you to come out. Do you want to take a photo together?"
At the age when a young boy is just beginning to fall in love, the words between the lines reveal innocence and immaturity. When Ning Bei bravely asked the question, his hand holding the phone was shaking slightly.
Having not seen each other for many years, Jiang Wan is quite low-key and doesn't like to post on WeChat Moments. Ning Bei is eager to leave a trace of Jiang Wan... God knows how difficult it was for him to write hard to catch up with Jiang Wan's footsteps, but fortunately, God gave him the best answer, and everything is worth it.
Jiang Wan did not refuse. She leaned against Ning Bei, smiling generously and appropriately. It was obviously just a small overlap of shoulders that touched each other, but the unfamiliar touch was like a vine that grew out of thin air, tracing along the shoulders from top to bottom and into the heart, inexplicably making Ning Bei's heart beat faster.
The moment the shutter was pressed, Ning Bei was quick to put his hand on Jiang Wan's shoulder. Jiang Wan was frightened by his sudden action and looked up at him in shock.
This is the scene captured by the camera. The girl opened her mouth slightly and looked up at the boy in surprise, while Ning Bei smiled warmly and brightly as if his plan had succeeded, like the clouds clearing and the snow melting.
After taking the photos, Ning Bei acted as if nothing had happened, but Jiang Wan seemed a little distant and stiff because of his actions.
Ning Bei's eyes dimmed slightly, and he worked harder to introduce to Jiang Wan the changes in his family in recent years. After a while, the relationship between the two seemed to ease a little.
......
On the way back, Jiang Wan dawdled and found that the subway had stopped running.
She originally wanted to ride on a shared bicycle to increase the interaction between her and Ning Bei, but after circling twice, she didn't see a single bicycle. Jiang Wan's face almost turned green with anger.
Ning Bei was confused and scratched his head. He said seriously, "I didn't know Sister Wanwan liked this place so much. I've been here two or three times and still haven't seen enough. I'll accompany Sister Wanwan here next time, but it's too late today. Let's go back early."
Jiang Wan was so angry that she almost got internal injuries. She had no choice but to take a taxi back.
The two of them sat side by side in the back seat of the car. The lights were dim and the driver was a good driver. The slow and steady ride could easily make people drowsy.
Jiang Wan is not a person who would put himself in a difficult position. In order to sleep comfortably, he just pretended to lean on Ning Bei's shoulder unintentionally.
The moment she leaned in, Jiang Wan could clearly feel his tenseness. Ning Bei was a little thin, but not skinny. When she leaned in, she could clearly feel his tense muscles...
Jiang Wan was feeling sleepy and no longer had time to think about it carefully, so he just fell asleep.
But Ning Bei on the side was having a hard time. His body was stiff and he dared not move. The place where Jiang Wan was leaning on felt like an electric current passing through, and it was numb and tingling... Happiness came so suddenly that Ning Bei's heartbeat accelerated violently at this moment, almost jumping out of his chest.
He even became inflated and started daydreaming that Sister Wanwan must have some affection for him since she treated him like this...but soon, reality gave him a hard blow.
