Chapter 44: Being Targeted

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The group of people followed Jiang Si’s instructions and moved their bodies, but soon their bodies stiffened and they stopped in place again! They changed direction, and the wild boar also moved its huge body, but it still blocked the way.

The sound of people swallowing their saliva rose and fell. These people were instantly terrified to the extreme.

“Damn it, what Mid-Autumn Festival! It’s really like seeing a ghost! Coming to such a godforsaken place, walking for so long, and we even encountered a wild boar blocking our way! It’s really f*cking strange!” Someone could not help but grumble, his words filled with regret for this trip.

Jiang Si clenched his fists when he heard the man’s complaint. He had wanted to invite a few classmates to his house to bond with him today, but he had not expected to encounter such a situation. First, Jiang Xi had not listened to him and did not hire a carriage for them, so they had to walk home on foot. Then, they encountered the wild boar on the road. He clenched his fists so tightly that his veins were bulging! ‘Jiang Xi! Jiang Xi was the one who had caused all this trouble!’

“Let’s go over one by one. A group of people will get targeted easier. How about this, I’ll walk in front, and you guys follow behind slowly.” Jiang Si thought that it would be easier to attract the wild boars’ attention if there were more people. As he spoke, he walked to the other side before the crowd could react. His words were full of righteousness and he was putting himself in danger.

Jiang Si’s plan to separate from the group and hide their individual members was good. However, this wild boar was the wild boar that Jiang Xi wanted to eat. Since the wild boar had offered itself to her, of course, it had to find the Jiang family! Therefore, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the wild boar headed directly in Jiang Si’s direction! The others were instantly dumbfounded and looked at the stunned Jiang Si.

Jiang Si, who thought that it would be easier to escape, was stunned on the spot. A chill ran from the soles of his feet to his head, and he shivered violently!

The others did not react in time. They thought that Jiang Si was really risking his life to save them, so they praised him one after another, “Good job, Jiang Si. You actually took the initiative to attract the wild boar’s attention. I’m so impressed!

“Jiang Si, we’ve not been classmates in vain. I’ll remember what you’ve done today!”

“Jiang Si, you’ve really changed my opinion of you.” He Tongwen pretended not to notice Jiang Si’s earlier thoughts and joined in the praise. The rest of the people carefully moved in the opposite direction of Jiang Si. As they moved, they observed the wild boar. They realized that the wild boar did not even look at them. Its eyes seemed to be attached to Jiang Si. Everyone was shocked.

Someone could not help but ask, “Jiang Si, did you dig up the wild boar’s ancestral grave? This big wild boar seems to be only targeting you.”

“Don’t joke around now. You were in danger because I invited you to my house. Since I invited you, I should be responsible for your safety.” Jiang Si’s body trembled with anger, but he did not dare to refute what everyone had said, so he could only take the opportunity to take the credit.

Jiang Si’s thick-skinned behavior made the others sneer in their hearts. Did Jiang Si take them for fools?

Jiang Xi had no idea that Jiang Si had been exposed just because of a wild boar.

The clattering of horse hooves approached from afar, particularly clear in the dark and quiet night. Jiang Si’s face lit up with joy as he said, “Someone’s here, we’re saved.” As he spoke, he wiped the cold sweat off his forehead without a trace to make himself look less pathetic.

The few students thought, ‘Jiang Si, you’re the only one in danger right from the start, right? The wild boar’s goal was very clear, okay?’

Ever since the Zhao family received Jiang Xi’s blessings this morning, the entire Zhao family had been busy. They had promised to send Jiang Xi a Mid-Autumn Festival gift, but no one had been available. The servants of the Zhao family were so busy as they complained, “What’s the occasion today? The stables said that the horses had already given birth. Also, the pig that was bought from the kitchen to be killed and eaten was actually pregnant. It’s really strange.”

“Alright, alright. There’s so much work to do, yet it’s not enough to shut your mouths. I think you have too little work on your hands. You’re talking about everything to outsiders. The Eldest Miss is still in the manor. Be careful that your words don’t dirty her ears. When the time comes, the young master will skin you!” The Zhao family’s butler’s expression was gloomy, making his face look even more unkind.

At this moment, a maidservant ran over. “Butler, the Eldest Young Master would like to see you.” As she spoke, she lowered her head. Her hands under her sleeves clutched the corners of her clothes so tightly that her nails started to turn white.
