After Switching Bodies, the Mad Overbearing CEO Takes Over the Entertainment Industry-Chapter 210 - 207 Pure Love War God

Ji Tian waved at him, and his cold demeanor softened slightly, curling into a gentle smile.

She hadn’t seen him in several days, and he seemed to have grown taller.

Ji Tian squinted with a smile, "Where have you been these past few days? I haven’t really seen you at school."

As they walked towards the elevator, he spoke softly, "Busy studying, and I went to the old man’s place over the weekend; he had a long talk with me."

Ji Tian nodded in understanding, thinking of Old Sir Bai’s limited life span and how he particularly wanted Qin Jiangsheng to accept him, she said, "Grandpa Bai is a really good person. When you were sick and had a fever last time, he asked me to take you to the hospital, worried that it would get more serious if left untreated."

"Is that so?"

Ji Tian knew from his indifferent demeanor that he was not really listening—this kind of thing couldn’t be rushed after all. Qin Jiangsheng’s childhood traumas were so severe that he still found it difficult to accept the word "family."

Even with friends, he had very few; in school, apart from her, she really hadn’t seen many people who could strike up a conversation with him.

Upon thinking this, Ji Tian suddenly got excited, "Qin Jiangsheng, do you remember the time when I ripped your clothes?"

Qin Jiangsheng paused, his eyes deep and dark, "Thanks to you, it’s unforgettable."

"..."

Ji Tian gave an embarrassed cough, "It wasn’t intentional, if I had known it would happen, I definitely wouldn’t have taken that path."

"Heh." He gave a brief, light laugh, indiscernible if he was pleased or not.

However, he had worn that torn shirt with a clip all day, so she could understand his displeasure.

The next second, he spoke in a gentle tone, "If not for that, I might not have remembered you at all."

Ji Tian, "..."

That was hard to gauge—was he remembering her to kill her, or really to kill her?

She couldn’t forget the way he coolly looked at her, as if she had been executed by lingchi in his heart a thousand times over.

Of course, these weren’t the point; what was important was, why had the distant Qin Jiangsheng’s attitude towards her changed so much.

She blinked and asked cautiously, "In the beginning, your look alone could wake me up from a dream."

The beginning?

Qin Jiangsheng did indeed want to kill her.

He could take being cursed at, beaten, but he hated such humiliation.

The looks in those people’s eyes made him very uncomfortable.

"Mm." He hummed lightly in acknowledgment.

They entered the elevator, he pressed the button for the first floor. After the doors closed, he said, "I did indeed hate you at the beginning, even wanted to kill you."

Ji Tian, "...?"

She thought he would try to cover it up but didn’t expect him to admit it outright!

She was really panicked inside.

"But," his voice, cool as a spring, took a turn, the dark depths of his eyes filled with a smile, "Now, I only want to protect you, and I will walk in the direction you wish for."

A sentence that wasn’t quite a love confession, but felt more profound than one, made Ji Tian’s heart race.

It seemed like there was a special magnetic field between them; whenever she saw him, she couldn’t help but blush and her heart beat wildly.

She turned her head away, a little embarrassed, watching the jumping floor numbers, the corner of her mouth curving into a playful arc, "Oh, Qin Jiangsheng, among so many people, why do you like me?"

Qin Jiangsheng paused, looked at her profile with puzzled confusion, "Weren’t you the first to like me? Clinging to me persistently?"

"..."

Dead memories began to assault her.

Thinking back to her initial efforts to win his favor, assuring him she would tutor him and teach him, completely ignoring his increasingly impatient expressions, believing persistence would lead to triumph.

And insisting on bringing him food every day, disregarding his wishes, throwing away his half-cooked meals, only leaving satisfied when she saw him finish eating.

Recalling that, it did seem like she took the first step...

Ji Tian gave a dry laugh, "Yes, that’s right..."

The elevator reached the first floor, and she walked ahead briskly. Qin Jiangsheng caught up in two quick steps, taking out a perfect pink gypsophila from his backpack and handing it to her, "Here, for you."

"Why do you still carry flowers with you?" Ji Tian took them, sniffed out of habit, and found that starry florals had no scent.

"I brought them because I missed you."

Ji Tian’s face turned even redder. How could such a good-looking person say such blunt and sincere things?

Truly a pure love war god, she could hardly take it. She couldn’t even forgive herself for deceiving such an innocent, tall guy’s feelings.

"Let’s go, let’s go, we’re going to be late." Ji Tian pulled him away.

Qin Jiangsheng followed up, "Should I drive you there?"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah," she answered haphazardly, "My third brother came with me today, so let’s leave the car for him to go home."

Meanwhile, Ji Weinan watched Ji Tian walk away with Qin Jiangsheng, not even getting a chance to call out.

"No, what’s this kid up to? Really falling for my sister?" His eyes wide, he stood still and turned to Quan Jingyou.

"Hmm." Quan Jingyou, stroking his chin, offered a rational analysis, "It’s almost certain—you’re set to be this uncle! Brother Qin and Sister Tian, two people so skilled in gaming, should be together!"

Ji Weinan: "..."

Somewhat at a loss for words, he said, "Dude, what kind of logic is that? Just because they’re good at video games they should be together?"

"You know how the saying goes: ’It’s a waste not to eat the grass at your own burrow; why let other rabbits benefit? Form a powerful alliance, and you’ll be invincible!’"

"..."

If he remembered correctly, the saying was ’A rabbit does not eat the grass around its burrow.’

What’s with this guy making things up!

"No, I have to bring my sister back."

"Let it be, don’t make a fuss. Sister Tian has important things to do; what does it matter if Brother Qin is giving her a ride? Why don’t you come to my gaming club? Have some time to practice?"

Ji Weinan: "..."

Did he seem like he was in the mood to play?

But unable to resist Quan Jingyou’s insistent dragging, he ended up at the club.

In the car.

Qu Rong observed the two in the backseat, overturning his belief in Qin Jiangsheng’s aloofness. Throughout the ride, he asked Miss Ji if she was thirsty three times, if she was bored eight times, offered to play video games with her twelve times, and upon being rejected, he played his trump card: asking if she wanted to sleep and offered his shoulder for her to lean on.

Qu Rong: "..."

Pursuing a girl?

He might as well sit in jail!

If this worked, he’d pull down his pants and poop in the street.

The next second, Ji Tian nodded cheerfully, "Okay."

She leaned against him without any restraint, turning Qin Jiangsheng into a human pillow.

One dared to speak; the other dared to act.

Inside, Qu Rong couldn’t help but exclaim inwardly.

So why hadn’t he succeeded? After sleeping with that woman, he’d done everything he could and shouldn’t have done, only for his gifts to be thrown away.

Sigh, he just wanted to make amends. Hearing from neighbors that she was a celebrity and upon inquiring, he found out it was He Chenxi, who had been on a show with Ji Tian. Qu Rong was considering if he should start with Miss Ji, ingratiate himself with her first, then help him explain things to He Chenxi properly—his feelings were genuine!

Throughout the trip, the three had different things on their minds.

Ji Tian was just glad to finally not have to listen to Qin Jiang’s rambling.

Half an hour later, the car arrived outside the KI Research Institute.

Shen Zhiyi was already there, next to her stood a woman dressed in luxurious, vibrant clothes with beautiful and delicate features. When she smiled, she was very pretty, intelligent and graceful, and gently reached out to tidy the hair by Shen Zhiyi’s ear.

Hearing the noise behind her, Shen Zhiyi looked over, her smile growing wider.

"Student Ji Tian."

Her gaze then shifted to Qin Jiangsheng by her side, her voice taking on a meaningful tone, "Student Qin Jiangsheng, what a coincidence, you’re here too."

At the mention of the name Qin Jiangsheng, the woman’s hand stiffened, and she turned her head in disbelief...
