Even After My Death-Chapter 92 - 80 Waiting in Place (Two in One)

Unlike the other guests playing by the sea, Jiang Ning went against the trend and walked to the shade of trees some dozens of meters away with a backpack on her back.

This island was rich in natural resources, and the program team had said that they had previously released many chickens, ducks, and geese for the guests to catch and eat.

Before heading out, Jiang Ning had tied her naturally curly hair into a high ponytail, revealing her beautiful forehead, barefaced with clean and fair skin, a slender neck, lightly pursed lips, thick and lush eyelashes fluttering lightly, showing those cool and calm black eyes. She gazed around, scrutinizing everything as if she were a queen who had been away for a long time and was patrolling her own territory.

[Holy shit! That look in Jiang Ning’s eyes! Absolutely stunning!]

[So cool!!!]

[Her figure is so nice. Slurp. She must be into fitness.]

[Aren’t you guys disgusting? A fan of such a person?]

[Are your values following your facial features or what? Ugh!]

[Fans of Trash Jiang must be crazy! Can you clear your eyes and take a good look!]

[Stop fighting! Why keep making a fuss! Just watch the live broadcast, will you!]

While the comments were noisy and boisterous, Jiang Ning set her backpack on the ground under the shade and sat down leaning on it.

After the other guests had tired themselves out playing, they came over one after the other.

In the outdoor setting, everyone was not too particular; they simply found a spot that was somewhat clean to sit down, even Jian Tiantian pursed her lips and made do with sitting under a tree, while only Huo Miao stood to the side, hesitating.

Mu Mingxuan, knowing what she was hesitating about, took the initiative to take out a clean piece of clothing from his backpack and spread it on the ground next to him and said gently, "Miaomiao, come sit down."

Immediately, Huo Miao’s smile blossomed: "Thank you, Brother Mingxuan."

Then, she conveniently sat on top of the piece of clothing Mu Mingxuan had laid out for her.

[Ah? What kind of move is that?]

[Being so fussy outdoors? Princess syndrome?]

[To the one in front, who are you cursing? Our Miaomiao has been pampered from a young age, a true heiress of a wealthy family! It’s only natural she’s a bit particular!]

[How is this being fussy? Every time I sit on steps, I have to place a book under my butt, our Miaomiao just likes being clean.]

[Besides, it’s not like Miaomiao made the request; it was her fiancé who cherishes her and took the initiative to take out his clothes for her to sit on. Can’t you just stand seeing people being affectionate?]

[Bashing our Miaomiao, are you perhaps the internet army paid by Trash Jiang?]

Huo Miao’s fans were exceedingly combative, like hens protecting their chicks; any hint of something that might not be in their idol’s favor was met with their collective attack, thoroughly extinguishing these sparks of dissent.

The guests sat down in twos and threes in a row; the distance between them was not far. Jiang Ning was on the far left, followed by fellow civilian Nong Chun, then Jian Tiantian and Ling Bo, a bit further away were Huo Ziheng, Huo Miao, Mu Mingxuan, and at the end were Yuan Wei and Lin Qi.

With everyone sitting silently together, the atmosphere was somewhat awkward. Seeing Mu Mingxuan proactively provide a cushion for Huo Miao, Jian Tiantian’s expressive eyes turned towards them, enviously saying, "Sister Miaomiao, you two have such a great relationship!"

"Of course." Hearing this, Huo Miao’s face showed a happy yet shy expression; she even deliberately glanced at Jiang Ning, who seemed to be sleeping with her eyes closed under the tree, and said loudly on purpose, "Brother Mingxuan and I have known each other for many years."

"Wow? How many years is that? Childhood sweethearts?" Instantly, Jian Tiantian’s face showed a look of astonished admiration, and the other guests, who weren’t in the know, also looked over at the two.

With no electronic devices at hand, sitting around doing nothing was boring, so chatting might make the time pass faster.

"Yeah." Huo Miao pursed her lips, a bit shy as she raised her eyes to look at Mu Mingxuan.

"Our Mu Family and Huo Family are business partners, and our fathers have known each other from their generation. As a child, I often went to the Huo Family to play with Ziheng and the others, so I’ve known Miaomiao since we were young." Mu Mingxuan continued the conversation with an indulgent smile on his handsome face, looking down at Huo Miao. Their eyes met, and each could see the admiration for themselves in the other’s eyes; at that moment, it seemed as though pink bubbles were forming around them, making them look like a couple deeply in love.

"Such a childhood sweethearts kind of love is really wonderful." Jian Tiantian blinked, her face full of amazement. She had previously come across some gossip about Huo Miao on the internet, knowing that Huo Miao had a childhood sweetheart fiancé with an excellent family background. Seeing Mu Mingxuan for the first time today, Jian Tiantian realized just how outstanding Huo Miao’s fiancé was: not only was he tall and handsome, but being born into a wealthy family also meant he was well-experienced with extraordinary manners, undoubtedly an excellent, high-quality man. More importantly, he was very considerate of Huo Miao, without a hint of male chauvinism, making him all the more charming.
