Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Suddenly Made a Comeback! novel Chapter 173

Chapter 173 -173 Su Yinwan, You Did It on Purpose, Right?

Jiang Li finally rose from her seat.

Seeing her stand up, He Yun also stood up.

Wen Jiaojiao immediately tensed up, looking towards Jiang Li.

No way, no way, she’d only just started to mend her relationship with Jiang Li.

She couldn’t be about to throw herself at Shang Shaojing as soon as he arrived, totally forgetting herself, right?

However, the other person just stared straight ahead, her eyes filled with just the right amount of soft light, without a trace of turmoil; she didn’t even glance at Shang Shaojing.

Wen Jiaojiao sighed in relief.

Thank goodness, Jiang Li hadn’t lost it at this crucial moment.

Su Yinwan’s face, however, changed slightly.

She had noticed Jiang Li in the corner as soon as she walked in.

Before she’d even entered, the reactions from Jiang Yan and Shu Yan had already irked her, and then Wen Jiaojiao had pointedly questioned her as soon as she came in.

Those two were even worse, just sitting in their chairs without standing up, completely disregarding her.

Su Yinwan’s eyes flickered, and she was about to take advantage of Jiang Li standing up to cause a scene when the other person spoke up first.

“It’s getting late; there’s no need for everyone to continue with pleasantries and delay dinner. Let’s quickly take our seats so we don’t end up getting caught in the rain later.”

The challenging words Su Yinwan wanted to say froze on her lips.

But she wasn’t willing to let it go just like that, so after pursing her lips, she feigned remorse and said:

“I’m sorry for our tardiness. Did we delay everyone’s meal? Jiang Li, please don’t be upset.”

The barrage in the chat was successfully steered by Su Yinwan, now targeting Jiang Li.

Hearing this, Shang Shaojing frowned and grabbed her arm.

“Why are you apologizing to her? This isn’t your fault.”

[Right, is it a big deal to wait a little longer? Su Yinwan and the others didn’t mean to be late. Why is Jiang Li putting on airs?]

[Jiang Li and He Yun are so impolite. Guests have arrived, and they’re still sitting there. Even though they’ve spent a few days on this variety show, it seems they haven’t changed a bit.]

[Wenwen is so nice, apologizing even in such an awkward situation. We don’t need to suffer like this. It’s Jiang Li who should be apologizing!]

[Thank goodness for our President Shang protecting Wanwan. President Shang is so protective of his wife. I might as well move the civil affairs bureau here and have them get married on the spot.]

Upon hearing these ill-fitting words, Jiang Li looked over at Su Yinwan, who also had an unfitting expression.

Though she wasn’t one to seek the limelight and preferred peace and quiet, that didn’t mean she was the kind of person who would take bullying lying down.

Especially not when it came to such an unwarranted attack on her reputation.

So she laughed lightly, her gaze drifting darkly to Shang Shaojing.

“Mr. Shang, are you saying I’ve done something wrong? Then may I ask what exactly did I do wrong?”

“I neither rushed both of you, nor used abusive language, nor showed a cold face. Moreover, I’ve been waiting for you without a word of complaint. How has this become my fault?”

“You!” Shang Shaojing choked, his complexion turning cold for a moment.

[Holy shit, Jiang Li is so fierce. Wasn’t she supposed to like President Shang? Why is she confronting him directly now?]

[I smell the chaos brewing!!! Is it finally going to break out into a fight?!]

The drama didn’t stop there, as Jiang Li turned her attention to Su Yinwan.
