Chapter 2620 Why don't you be my woman!
Chapter 2620
Richard's face paled slightly upon hearing this. The district chief had given him orders to do everything in his power to force Jiang Wan to agree to write a game for them.
If all else fails, you can use your good looks to seduce someone.
Thinking of using his good looks to his advantage, Richard glanced at Jiang Wan and thought to himself that it wouldn't be a bad idea to actually get this woman as his wife.
So he stepped forward and stood next to Jiang Wan.
We chatted as we walked, mostly about things outside the island.
Jiang Wan was also curious about the situation on Devil's Island, so she chatted with him casually. Jiang Wan asked him:
When did you arrive on this island?
Richard replied, "About five years ago."
Jiang Wan asked, "Then why did you come here? Did you do something wrong outside?"
Richard shook his head and said, "No."
“My father committed murder, even though he wasn’t at fault. But he was in a fit of rage and killed all the people who bullied him.”
"A total of 12 lives were lost."
He was sentenced to life imprisonment.
He paused for a moment, then thought for a moment and said, "Actually, it's not exactly life imprisonment. With all 12 lives taken, the sentence is about 138 years."
“I reckon he’ll never get out of here in his lifetime. His mother misses him and always wants to come and see him.”
“But you can’t visit people here. You either live here or never come back.”
"There was no other way; my mother loved him so much that she brought me here."
"Since I am a doctor and there is a great need for doctors here, I joined the research institute here."
As he spoke, he subtly touched Jiang Wan's hand with his fingers.
The two walked side by side this way, their hands hanging naturally at their sides.
It's perfectly normal to touch your finger between actions.
Jiang Wan didn't pay attention at first, but she noticed that the touching wasn't just once or twice. At first, it was just a brush, but later it seemed like the boy was about to reach out and grab her fingers.
Jiang Wan sensitively withdrew her hand and then moved to the side.
Richard, however, was unwilling to give up and still wanted to push things forward.
Jiang Wan was somewhat angry.
She rubbed her hands in her pockets, and when she took them out again, she acted as if everything was normal.
Richard saw her take her hand out again and assumed it was an implicit invitation to him.
He reached out again, this time boldly and confidently grabbing Jiang Wan's hand.
In his view, as long as the test was successful and Jiang Wan let him hold her hand, it would be tantamount to playing hard to get, and he could take things further.
But to his utter surprise, when his broad palm grasped Jiang Wan's soft, boneless hand, a sudden sharp pain shot through him.
He exclaimed in surprise and quickly let go.
When he raised his hand and examined it more closely, he discovered a bloody hole in his palm.
The wound was so small that it would have been impossible to notice if it weren't for the beads of blood oozing out.
He looked at Jiang Wan in shock: "What do you have in your hand?"
"It pricked my hand and made it bleed."
Jiang Wan raised an eyebrow and looked at him, saying, "What are you doing grabbing my hand? Don't you know that men and women shouldn't touch each other?"
Richard pursed his lips and said, "I'm not Chinese. You don't need to follow your culture. Where I'm from, it's perfectly normal for men and women to kiss on the back of the hand or hug when they meet."
“It’s normal to touch cheeks. I was just worried that you were unsteady on your feet, so I wanted to hold your hand and support you.”
He spoke with such confidence and self-righteousness.
In fact, this road is not very smooth, even though someone had previously paved it with asphalt.
However, no one has been able to renovate this place for a long time. After all, all the buildings on this island require the island owner's money, so why would the island owner be willing to spend money on construction?
As long as it's presentable and usable, that's fine.
Moreover, the Tang family has been short of money in recent years, and any money they have has been spent on other things. With so many prisoners on this island, they are unable to make ends meet.
So even less people are repairing the roads.
If the road is uneven, walking will naturally be unsteady.
Richard using this as an excuse is not entirely unreasonable.
Jiang Wan's eyes turned cold as she glanced at him sideways and said, "I don't need you to help me up. Even if I fall, it's my own bad luck. You should keep your little schemes to yourself."
“I already have a husband.”
Richard chuckled and said, "If your husband can't come to this island, it's as if you two are divorced."
"Although I am a doctor, I still have some influence on this island. Why don't you just give in to me? As long as I protect you, you will definitely be able to live a more carefree life."
“I have a pretty good relationship with the district chief, and he will protect you. Otherwise, if you really get into that tower, and you can’t write what the islander wants.”
"All the criminals in that tower will become your men."
Jiang Wan rolled her eyes and said, "I am a woman, that's true, but does that make me so weak in your eyes?"
Richard warned, "You need to think this through."
"The island owner can be very ruthless when he gets angry. If he breaks your legs and makes you unable to walk, do you think you'll still have the right to be arrogant?"
That's a very realistic statement.
This is essentially a choice placed before Jiang Wan: if the island lord really breaks her leg, she won't be able to go anywhere; she'll either compromise or die.
Jiang Wan looked at Richard with a half-smile, and after a long while, said something very hurtful:
"Even if I wanted to find a man, I'd rather find your district chief than you."
"You've already said it, you're just a doctor, what right do you have to be my man?"
Jiang Wan's words were so domineering that Richard was speechless.
He had to admit that, relatively speaking, the district head was naturally more cost-effective than him.
Moreover, the district head isn't bad-looking.
Not to mention the district head, even the island lord is someone I can be proud of.
But the island owner is quite old, already over 40 this year. However, he has some tricks up his sleeve and knows how to preserve his youth, which is why he looks so young and handsome.
Richard was furious. He took Jiang Wan to the front and back of the tower, then coldly snorted and said:
"Since you don't know what's good for you, then your life or death is none of my business."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Jiang Wan called out from behind, "How can you be so petty? You brought me here and walked this long way with me, and you just ran off without even saying goodbye."
"You're so disloyal."
Richard was so angry he almost stumbled, but he didn't look back at her.
Now that we've arrived at the tower, there's no point in not going in.
Actually, Jiang Wan wanted to wander around the different districts, mainly to see if she could find a sea view.
It's clearly not going to work now.
So she stepped directly into the tower gate.
There's a security checkpoint right in front of you inside the door.
