Rebirth of an Idle Noble Women (200-end)

Side Story 15

Tan Yongsi looked at Jiang Yirui, and she knew that with her limited power, there was no way she would be able to find any evidence in a short amount of time. The longer time passed, the easier it was to destroy any evidence that remained. She didn’t know Jiang Yirui’s true identity, but she knew that he definitely wasn’t someone of low status. “Wait till Xuan Xuan wakes up.”

Jiang Yirui didn’t say anything in response, and another voice came from somewhere near them. “Young Master Rui.”

Looking up, they found that it was Wang Qiming. Jiang Yirui didn’t linger any longer at that. “Then, I’ll take my leave first. Contact me if anything happens.”

Wang Qiming stood at the elevator door without moving any closer, and Jiang Yirui walked towards him.

As the both of them left, Meng Yunzhao stared at Jiang Yirui’s retreating back. She didn’t know who he was, but she definitely recognized Wang Qiming, who was the nation’s sweetheart. Her tone was thoughtful when she next spoke, “Yichen, who in the world is this Young Master Rui?”

 Xiao Yichen took a deep breath, and seeing that there were no other people in the corridor, she said in a low voice, “He’s the hottest rookie in the ancient martial arts world right now. To be honest, this person’s whereabouts is always uncertain. I’ve only seen him myself a handful of times. That’s right, Sisi, how did you get to know Young Master Rui? And you both seem quite familiar with each other too.” Xiao Yichen turned to look at Tan Yongsi at this, her eyes lighting up.

“The ancient martial arts world?” Meng Yunzhao was surprised as she turned around, glancing at the spot where Jiang Yirui had disappeared from. “No wonder even the nation’s sweetheart, Wang Qiming showed him such respect.”

“Wang Qiming?” Xiao Yichen shook her head. “In the ancient martial arts world, Wang Qiming is basically unranked, while Young Master Rui’s position in the ancient martial arts world is just exactly like Wang Qiming’s position in the secular world. Saying it like this, do you guys get it?”

The moment she said that, not only Meng Yunzhao, even Tan Yongsi was in a state of disbelief.

Wang Qiming’s position in the secular world was like an ancient crown prince. Not only the secular world, but even most of the people in the ancient martial arts world also didn’t dare to mess with him. If Jiang Yirui was in the same position as Wang Qiming in the secular world in the ancient martial arts world, what kind of existence was that?

Outside the hospital, Wang Qiming was looking at Jiang Yirui, handing him a pile of documents. “Isn’t it faster if you asked Jiji to search for this information?”

“Jiji isn’t with me.” Jiang Yirui flipped through the documents, then said, “Thanks.”

“It’s a small matter.” Wang Qiming waved his hand dismissively. “Hasn’t Jiji been at your side recently?”

“It turned tailcoats today.” Jiang Yirui was done reading through the information in just a few seconds.

Wang Qiming was about to ask where Jiji had gone, but then he recalled the news from the ancient martial arts world recently, and he froze. “Young Master Rui, tell me honestly, has she really returned?”

Jiang Yirui naturally knew who Wang Qiming was talking about, and he could only reply kindly, “That’s right, I’ve already seen her. If you had arrived just a bit earlier, you might have also seen her.”

It took Wang Qiming three minutes to react, and his shouts could be heard in the heavens.

Everyone passing by the area saw the scene happen in front of them. The nation’s sweetheart, who many yearned for and respected on usual days, was hitting himself on the nearby streetlight pole over and over.
