Quick Transmigration: My System is a Big Liar

Jiang Lan's gifts for her family were praised by both her parents. Worried that she wouldn't have enough pocket money, they tried various ways to give her money, but she refused them all.

Jiang Lan plans to find a job once Zhou Lingling's matter is settled. Otherwise, there are still several years before the resumption of the college entrance examination, and she can't just stay at home like a parasite forever!

Because Zhou Lingling was concerned about what Jiang Lan had bought, she waited near the Jiang family's house early in the morning. Only after the three members of the Jiang family left did she knock on the door.

Jiang Lan was peeling an egg, so engrossed that she seemed oblivious to the knocking at the door.

[Host, it's Zhou Lingling.] Ping An couldn't stand it anymore and spoke up to remind her.

[I know, who else could it be but her?] Jiang Lan continued peeling the egg slowly and methodically. This egg was probably laid by the hen yesterday, making it particularly difficult to peel. After peeling, the egg was bumpy and uneven, lacking any aesthetic appeal, and it didn't taste good at all either.

Zhou Lingling knocked on the door for a long time, but there was no response. Thinking that Jiang Lan might not be awake yet, she was filled with jealousy and deliberately shouted loudly, "Xiao Lan, are you awake? It's me, Lingling. I need to talk to you. Open the door."

Five minutes passed, and there was still no movement from inside. Zhou Lingling was so angry that she could barely maintain her smile. If she didn't bring anything back today, that old bastard would definitely not let her off the hook.

Half an hour later, Jiang Lan finished the last mouthful of porridge and learned from Ping An that Zhou Lingling was still at the door, so she slowly got up.

Zhou Lingling, tired from knocking on the door, leaned against it to rest. Suddenly, the door was opened from the inside, and her body fell backward uncontrollably.

Jiang Lan had already moved aside and was overjoyed to see Zhou Lingling fall heavily onto the stone slab.

"Jiang Lan, what are you doing? I called you so many times, why didn't you answer? And then you suddenly opened the door, look how hard I fell! It hurts so much, help me up!" Zhou Lingling clutched her aching back, glaring angrily at Jiang Lan, waiting for him to apologize so she could rip him off and then leave with the things he bought yesterday.

As she thought about it, Zhou Lingling couldn't help but chuckle.

Jiang Lan quickly took two steps forward, grabbed Zhou Lingling's arm and tried to pull her up, but halfway up, she seemed to be struggling and accidentally fell, landing heavily on top of Zhou Lingling.

"Ah! Jiang Lan, get up! You're hurting me!" Zhou Lingling shouted, trying to push Jiang Lan off her, but she couldn't muster any strength in her arms.

"Oh! Lingling, I'm sorry, I don't know what happened just now, I couldn't use my strength for a moment, did you hurt yourself? I'll get up and help you up right away." Jiang Lan said, preparing to get up, but her foot slipped and she fell heavily down again.

After several attempts, Zhou Lingling could no longer control the pain and cursed, "Jiang Lan, you idiot, did you do this on purpose? Get out of my way!"

"Lingling, how could you say that to me? I really didn't mean to. Look, I fell too, it hurts so much." Jiang Lan raised her right hand with tears in her eyes. There was a scratch on her fair little hand, which was barely noticeable unless you looked closely. "I just wanted to help you."

"You, you, you get away from me! I can get up myself!" Zhou Lingling shouted. She now regretted letting Jiang Lan help her up, otherwise her back wouldn't be in such a bad state.

"Alright then! Lingling, if you can't get up, just call me. I promise I won't fall this time." Jiang Lan was overjoyed, but her face showed a cautious expression.

Zhou Lingling struggled to get up several times before finally managing to lie down on Jiang Lan's bed in his room, but Jiang Lan pushed her down onto a stone bench in the courtyard.

"Xiao Lan, can I lie down on your bed for a bit? My back hurts so much," Zhou Lingling said pitifully.

Jiang Lan glanced at Zhou Lingling's clothes, somewhat embarrassed, "You'll get my blanket dirty. That's a new blanket my mom made, it's so warm."

Zhou Lingling's face turned pale upon hearing this. What did she mean by saying she would get the blankets dirty? Her clothes were only three days old; they couldn't possibly be that dirty. It must be that bitch Jiang Lan who didn't want her to lie down and was just saying this on purpose.

Thinking of the bags and packages hanging on her bicycle yesterday, Zhou Lingling continued, "Xiao Lan, are we still friends? My back hurts so much, just let me lie down! I'll wash them all for you once my back is better."

Jiang Lan deliberately pondered for a moment, then shook her head. "Lingling, you really can't. If you lie down now, I won't be able to sleep tonight. Why don't you lie down on the stone table? Anyway, everyone's at work now, so no one will see you. I won't tell anyone."

Zhou Lingling cursed inwardly, "Bitch, bitch! What do you mean she can't sleep at night just because I'm lying down? Is she trying to imply that I'm dirty? What right does a useless bitch have to talk to her like that?"

The stone table is rock hard; what difference is there between lying on it and lying on the ground? Besides, she's a young woman; if someone saw her lying on the stone table in broad daylight, would she even survive? Would she care about her reputation?

Jiang Lan watched as her face turned from pale to red, like a color-changing palette, which was quite a sight.

Zhou Lingling suddenly noticed the watch on Jiang Lan's wrist and realized that it might be a new watch she had bought yesterday, so she couldn't control her jealousy.

"Xiao Lan, is this a new watch? I've never seen you wear it before."

"Yeah! Yesterday when we went to the county town, my second brother insisted on buying it for me. I couldn't refuse, it made me so angry. Lingling, what kind of brother is that?" Jiang Lan said angrily.

Zhou Lingling's delicate face was now contorted with rage; she desperately wanted to snatch the watch and wear it on her own wrist.

"Xiao Lan, don't you like it? I heard it costs over a hundred!"

"No, it's not that. I just feel it's not very useful at home. I didn't ask how much it cost."

"Xiao Lan, can you take it off and let me try it on?"

"No, this was bought by my second brother. If it gets broken, you can't afford to pay for it."

Although Zhou Lingling knew that what Jiang Lan said was true, she was still quite angry. "I'm just trying it out. I won't break it."

"No."

Jiang Lan still refused, saying she wouldn't believe Zhou Lingling's words, even if she was joking. She thought it was just a pretense to try, and that she really wanted to take over her watch.

Seeing that Jiang Lan wouldn't agree, Zhou Lingling was a little disappointed, so she changed the subject. "Xiao Lan, I met Bai Zhiqing in the village yesterday. He asked you what you've been doing lately." Every time she said this, Jiang Lan would ask what else Bai Zhiqing had said, and then take out a bunch of things for her to pass on to Bai Zhiqing, but in the end, they all benefited her.

Jiang Lan fiddled with her watch, not even looking up, and said, "Oh!"
