Chapter 12 – Rescuing the Black-Hearted (part 12)

Jiang Rui Qi saw Chen Tian Tian’s excited expression and smiled.
He thought it was cute.
Bai Qing Qing was confessed to and her good friend was more excited than her.
What a simple girl.

Actually, Jiang Rui Qi had a thousand ways to keep Bai Qing Qing from disturbing him, but he didn’t do that.
There were two reasons.
The first was that Bai Qing Qing also saved his life by making the call.
The second, though he loathed to admit it, was because of the relationship between Tian Tian and Bai Qing Qing.
He investigated them and discovered that the two were good friends since childhood.
It was because of Bai Qing Qing protecting Chen Tian Tian that Tian Tian could grow up simply and beautifully.

Therefore, he couldn’t do anything to Bai Qing Qing because Tian Tian would hate him if she knew.
After all, she was such a simple and kind person.

The only way was to get a boyfriend for Bai Qing Qing and send her away.

Jiang Rui Qi had thought about letting Secretary Che chase Bai Qing Qing as Secretary Che had a good job and worked well.
Bai Qing Qing should like that.

At that time, Liu Zi Chao had emerged.

Jiang Rui Qi seriously considered it.
Although it was not as good as his family background, Liu Zi Chao’s family background was pretty good.
Both of his parents were professors at W University.
Liu Zi Chao’s looks were pretty good, although they couldn’t compare to him.
Since Liu Zi Chao was the same age as Bai Qing Qing, it should be easier for them to talk.

So he agreed to help Liu Zi Chao pursue Bai Qing Qing.

“Thank you for your feelings, but I am very busy.
Falling in love is not something I plan on doing in the next few years.
I’m sorry.
I have something to do.
Let’s go first,” Bai Qing Qing said with a perfunctory smile.
She then took Chen Tian Tian and left.

“No, Qing Qing.
This is the first time someone has confessed to you so formally.
Don’t you want to think about it?” Chen Tian Tian asked as she walked with her friend.

“I don’t have time to fall in love.
It’s a luxury! Look, for the scholarship, we need to study hard.
We need to work part-time in our spare time to reduce the burden on our families, don’t we? My grandma still wants to buy a house for me now and I have to go and look into real estate.
I need to find a few more jobs to repay the mortgage in the future.
How can I find time to fall in love?!”

Chen Tian Tian thought about it seriously.
“Yeah! It’s just a pity.
I think Liu Zi Chao is very handsome and speaks very sincerely.”

“Ah, how should I explain it.
I came here a bit earlier.
Perhaps after a few years, when I have a firm foothold in this city, if he confesses again, then maybe I will accept.” Bai Qing Qing felt a bit of pity.
After all, Liu Zi Chao was the first to officially confess to her after so many years, which was quite memorable.

“Is what you said true? If I wait a few years, will you accept my confession?!” Liu Zi Chao suddenly emerged from behind them.
He was still holding the bouquet of roses.

Bai Qing Qing and Chen Tian Tian were taken aback.
“Where did you come from?!”

“We have been following you all this time.
You were too engrossed talking to one another and didn’t notice,” said Jiang Rui Qi.
He looked at Chen Tian Tian with pity.
He knew her family background and felt distressed at her hardship.
However, he also knew that Tian Tian had her own pride and wouldn’t accept his help so casually.
He currently didn’t have the qualifications to help her.

He had to think carefully about how to help the Chen family without leaving a trace.

“Qing Qing, I really like you.
I know that you have your own goals and plans.
I won’t disturb you.
I’ll stay by your side as a friend first, and when you think it is suitable, can we be together?” It was easy for Liu Zi Chao to summon the courage to confess.
He didn’t want to let go of this chance and he didn’t want to give up easily.

Would Bai Qing Qing consider this?

“By the way, did you say your family is going to buy a house in the provincial capital? I know some people, so I can get you a good price.
Do you want to…” Liu Zi Chao continued his efforts.

“No need.
My grandma said there is no such thing as a free lunch in this world.
I don’t need this sort of thing.
I have something to do, so I will leave first,” Bai Qing Qing said as she rolled her eyes.

“Then… Then..
are we friends?” Li Zi Chao asked softly.

“Mm, you can be regarded as such.” Bai Qing Qing didn’t want to admit they were friends, but Chen Tian Tian was pulling her clothes and looking at her with sparkling eyes.
Bai Qing Qing knew that Chen Tian Tian was excited about this, so she had no choice but to agree.

Liu Zi Chao excitedly jumped three feet in the air.
Jiang Rui Qi rolled his eyes.

“Qing Qing, since we are friends, it should be okay for friends to help each other, right? Where are you going? Can we go together?” Liu Zi Chao threw the flowers in the trash nearby.
He then moved over to Bai Qing Qing and tried to persuade her.

Bai Qing Qing glanced at Liu Zi Chao with disgust.
“Stop that.
The place we are going is not suitable for you.”

Liu Zi Chao was a little aggrieved.
“Where is that?”

“The bathroom!” Bai Qing Qing said.

Liu Zi Chao was petrified and Jiang Rui Qi’s smile collapsed.

Bai Qing Qing then pulled Chen Tian Tian and ran away, leaving behind the petrified Liu Zi Chao.
After a while, Liu Zi Chao looked at Jiang Rui Qi sadly and asked, “Do girls like to go to the bathroom together no matter how old they are? Why on earth would they?”

Jiang Rui Qi didn’t bother discussing such trivial things with him, so he turned to leave.
Liu Zi Chao stopped him.
“Don’t leave.
Help me figure out what to do next.”

Jiang Rui Qi glanced at him.
Liu Zi Chao glared.
“Are you stupid? I’m friends with Qing Qing now, friends! Do you know that the first near the water tower gets the moon?1” Jiang Rui Qi, you have to help me, otherwise you won’t get close to Chen Tian Tian!”

Jiang Rui Qi looked at Liu Zi Chao like he was stupid, but then stopped.

Liu Zi Chao smiled.
“That’s right!”

Bai Qing Qing and Chen Tian Tian headed to the cafeteria to eat after leaving the bathroom.
They saw Liu Zi Chao and Jiang Rui Qi holding a few drinks in their hands while they stood under a tree.
When those two saw them come out, they rushed over excitedly.
“Qing Qing, where are you going now? Are you heading to the cafeteria to eat? So are we.
Let’s go together.
What do you like to eat?”

Bai Qing Qing suppressed the urge to roll her eyes.
Who was this guy trying to deceive?2” This was taking advantage of someone!

Chen Tian Tian was watching from the side with a smile.
Jiang Rui Qi saw her and quietly walked over.
He handed her a bottle of green tea and carefully unscrewed the bottle.
“Green tea has less sugar, so girls won’t get fat after drinking it.”

Chen Tian Tian was a little embarrassed and blushed.
“Thank you.”

Liu Zi Chao was still pestering Bai Qing Qing, so Bai Qing Qing was dealing with Liu Zi Chao instead of looking after him.
Jiang Rui Qi took this opportunity to chat with Chen Tian Tian.
“You and your friend have a very good relationship!”

“Are you talking about Qing Qing? Yeah, we are very good friends!” Chen Tian Tian said with a smile.
“Although Qing Qing seems very fierce, she is actually very nice.”

“Don’t you think she is too strict with you?” Jiang Rui Qi asked.

“No, I think it’s good like this.
Qing Qing always said that I am too soft-tempered and can’t refuse others.
She’s right.
Qing Qing has shielded me from a lot of things.
My mother said that she was relieved that Qing Qing is by my side,” said Chen Tian Tian.

Jiang Rui Qi didn’t speak any more.
He just looked at Chen Tian Tian’s soft expression and thought that she was a lovely girl.

In this manner, their group of two turned to a group of four.
There were two more people in Bai Qing Qing and Chen Tian Tian’s lives.

These two stuck to them like glue.
They wouldn’t go away.
Apart from sleeping and going to the bathroom, those two would do their best to follow them.
Even if they went to work, those two would come in to try and help.
The owner of the fried chicken shop was very happy, having to only pay two people money to have four people work.
How great was that.

That weekend, Li Su was coming to the provincial capital.
Bai Qing Qing and Chen Tian Tian specifically requested leave from their boss.
Liu Zi Chao and Jiang Rui Qi followed them.
“What are you doing here? Didn’t I tell you that my grandma is here today?”

“Yeah.
We came because your grandma is here.” Liu Zi Chao was dressed quite well today and had a sunny and youthful appearance.
Even Jiang Rui Qi looked a little out of place.

Bai Qing Qing felt a headache coming, but time was running out.
She couldn’t deal with this right now, so she just dragged Chen Tian Tian to the station.

“Grandma!” Bai Qing Qing was so excited when she saw Li Su.
She ran directly into Li Su’s arms.

“How old are you? Why do you still act like a child? Let’s get going!” Li Su rolled her eyes and spoke without being polite, but her expression betrayed her real emotions.
She still enjoyed the affection her granddaughter gave her.

“Tian Tian, you have grown a lot taller in the days I haven’t seen you!” Li Su touched Chen Tian Tian’s hair.
“Your mother got you a lot of things.
I’ll give them to you later.”

Bai Qing Qing took the bag in Li Su’s hands.
It was heavy! Her grandma still had a lot of strength.
She hugged Li Su’s arm with her free one.

“Thank you, Grandma Li,” said Chen Tian Tian as she hugged Li Su’s other arm.
“Grandma has come all the way here.
Are you tired or thirsty? I bought a drink.
Grandma should drink a bit!”

Just as Li Su was about to speak, she saw Liu Zi Chao and Jiang Rui Qi standing a short distance away.
She looked at them for a bit, then asked Bai Qing Qing, “Who are they?”

Before Bai Qing Qing could speak, Liu Zi Chao said, “Hello, Grandma Li.
My name is Liu Zi Chao and his name is Jiang Rui Qi.
We are good friends with Qing Qing and Tian Tian.
I knew Grandma Li was arriving today, so I came here to pick up grandma with them.” As he spoke, he took the bag from Bai Qing Qing naturally.
Then, his arms dropped.
The bag was so heavy!

Li Su smiled thoughtfully.
It turned out it was the male lead.
He was pretty handsome, but where did Liu Zi Chao come from? It seemed that Qing Qing didn’t tell her the truth.

Chen Tian Tian smiled and whispered something in Li Su’s ear.
Li Su looked at Bai Qing Qing and smiled.
Bai Qing Qing blushed.
“Grandma, don’t listen to Tian Tian talk nonsense.
That’s not the case.”

“See, grandma? Qing Qing is blushing and she still won’t admit it!” Chen Tian Tian smiled.

“Chen Tian Tian!” Bai Qing Qing became angry with embarrassment.

“Isn’t it just another suitor? What is there to be embarrassed about? Tian Tian is right.” Li Su glared at Bai Qing Qing.
She was so stupid and aggressive in front of the male lead.
She should think about her actions!

(近水樓台先得月) This translates to ‘the first to get near the water tower gets the moon’.
It means something like being near a person with connections can be beneficial.
I wasn’t sure what the English equivalent was.

(屬狗皮膏藥) Here, BQQ calls LZC a ‘from the family of dog skin plasters’.
This is a derogatory term describing someone who goes around and deceives people by selling them fake medicines that claim to cure everything.
