Chapter 761 - 7: Cannon Fodder in the Real World (Part 7)

They never expected that Jiang Lai would actually guess correctly twice in a row.

She must have guessed.

After all these years, she never recognized either of them.

Jiang Xun, Jiang Zhuan, she called whichever name she wanted.

Sometimes when she wanted someone to play with her, Jiang Xun ended up as the groom twice, while Jiang Zhuan was ridden like a horse twice.

Because she always mistook them.

Jiang Zhuan disliked her more, every time Jiang Lai called him out to play, he had Jiang Xun go in his place.

Jiang Xun didn’t like Jiang Lai either, but he could tolerate it, treating her like a stray cat or dog—it didn’t matter if he got scratched or bitten.

The brothers had always interacted with Jiang Lai like this.

But now, she guessed right two times in a row.

Jiang Xun reached out and took the coconut.

"Sister, Jiang Zhuan is right here, didn’t you say this morning that we’re different?"

"Yeah, I said you look a bit better than Jiang Zhuan."

The car was suddenly silent.

"Pfft——"

A light laugh made the atmosphere even more tense.

In the front row, Jiang Xun couldn’t help but laugh, turning back to look at Jiang Zhuan, apologizing with an insincere tone.

"Sorry, I didn’t mean to laugh."

Seeing Jiang Zhuan’s obviously darkened face, he simply slapped his thigh and laughed wildly.

"Hahaha!!! I told you you’re uglier than me, and you’re still stubborn!

What Sister said isn’t wrong, I also think I look a bit better than he does."

Jiang Zhuan expressionlessly reached out to press the adjustment button on the seat in front of him.

With a "bang," Jiang Xun fell backward, and the smile on his face disappeared instantly.

"Jiang Zhuan, you’re such a sore loser."

Jiang Zhuan just stared at Jiang Lai.

"I look exactly the same as him, how did you tell us apart?"

Jiang Lai sighed, this kid really didn’t care what others said, only about what he heard.

But today she had a bit of patience, so she looked at him and said word by word, seriously.

"Like I said, I think you look better than Jiang Xun..."

"That’s nonsense, don’t say anything more."

Jiang Zhuan leaned back with a cold face.

He thought Jiang Lai was doing it on purpose, although he didn’t know how she recognized them, it certainly wasn’t because of their looks.

Even plastic surgeons say that although twins look alike, there are always some subtle differences.

But he and Jiang Xun are exceptions.

They look exactly the same both in bone structure and skin.

Their resemblance is so hard to replicate, even machines struggle, allowing them to easily fool everyone around them if they wanted.

Of course, there was someone in the family who could recognize them at a glance.

That was their new sister, Jiang Huan.

As soon as they met her, she could tell the brothers apart at a glance. At first, they thought she was just lucky.

But in their later life, they found that Jiang Huan really could easily identify who was who.

Even if they swapped clothes, exchanged accessories, and stood in front of her again, Jiang Huan could still recognize them at a glance.

This was a tacit understanding shared among the three of them.

It quickly integrated Jiang Huan into the originally exclusive duo of brothers.

Having a Jiang Huan in the world already made their lives much more interesting.

But unexpectedly, after Jiang Lai, who had been in a coma for years, woke up, she could easily expose their naughty tricks.

No more fun.

Their favorite game used to be fooling Jiang Lai.

Now this game couldn’t be played anymore.

Jiang Zhuan put on a cold face, plugged in earphones, and closed his eyes to sleep.

Going shopping, Jiang Lai was buying in the store, while the brothers sat outside. They wouldn’t help unless Jiang Lai called for them.

Jiang Xun was a bit better, knowing to bring Jiang Lai a cup of coffee when buying some.

Jiang Zhuan wanted to leave halfway, but Jiang Lai wouldn’t let him.

"Jiang Xun can go back, but not you. I want you to shop with me."

"What’s the difference?"

"There is a difference. I just like forcing people to do things they don’t want to do."

"You’re insane."

After saying that, Jiang Zhuan directly dragged Jiang Xun to the bathroom.

Once inside, Jiang Zhuan took off his earrings and rings, messed up his hair, and then swapped baseball caps with him.

"Help me deal with her for a bit, you can name whatever you want in return."

Jiang Xun skillfully put on his earrings and rings, brushed aside his bangs in the mirror, put on Jiang Zhuan’s signature sneer, then donned the hat and slipped into his coat and shoes.

"For next month’s dance, Huanhuan’s dance partner is mine."

Jiang Zhuan hesitated for a moment, but when he thought of Jiang Lai’s annoying face, he nodded in the end.

"Deal."

The brothers’ feelings for Jiang Huan were written all over their faces. Jiang Zhuan was willing to compromise to get rid of Jiang Lai, and Jiang Xun was naturally happy to help him out.

After leaving the bathroom, Jiang Xun, with a cold face, urged Jiang Lai.

"What are you looking at? Let’s go!"

Jiang Zhuan smiled brightly.

"Then I won’t disturb your shopping, I have something to do at school, so I’ll head back now."

After speaking, he picked up his coat and turned to leave.

In the instant he turned around, the smile on his face vanished, leaving only impatience.

Sure enough, just a little disguise and Jiang Lai couldn’t possibly recognize them.

Even Jiang Huan sometimes gets it wrong, let alone Jiang Lai.

For the next two hours, Jiang Xun followed Jiang Lai around.

After being asleep for four years, Jiang Lai bought everything she needed, particularly clothes, which she bought out store after store.

When it came to spending money, she was quite the expert.

Following behind, Jiang Xun couldn’t help but click his tongue, and in Jiang Zhuan’s guise, he relentlessly mocked her.

"Spending money is so carefree when it’s not your own, isn’t it?"

Jiang Lai shot him a look and replied casually.

"You guys are eating and drinking on my dime now, aren’t you spending my money effortlessly?"

Jiang Xun’s eyes darkened.

Even with his good temper, Jiang Lai still managed to make his teeth itch with frustration.

Jiang Lai never failed to disappoint in sarcasm.

After ten at night, when the mall was about to close, Jiang Lai finally got into the car, feeling fulfilled.

Sitting in the car, Jiang Xun continued to put on a deep act, leaning back and preparing to put on his earphones to play games.

At this moment, Jiang Lai calmly remarked beside him.

"Jiang Zhuan’s clothes don’t suit you."

"Hmm?"

He instinctively took off his earphones and asked back.

"What did you say?"

Jiang Lai looked at him, her eyes smiling.

"I said, next time you and Jiang Zhuan play the switch identity game, don’t wear black, you don’t suit black."

Jiang Zhuan loved black clothes.

Hat, shoes, coat, accessories, practically everything was either gray or black.

The color palette was monotonous.

Jiang Xun was different; he preferred brighter colors.

But now wasn’t the time to discuss clothing colors, Jiang Xun regained his composure, silently looking at Jiang Lai.

"Don’t look at me with Jiang Zhuan’s stare. I actually quite like you, but looking like this is a bit irksome."
