The man turned his head and saw that it was another delicate beauty whose words were much more pleasant to the ear than Xiao Yeyu’s.
“I don’t want to make a big deal out of it, but she kept saying that I was despicable. Isn’t that ruining my reputation?” The man continued, “How about this? Get your friend to apologize to me, and I’ll let her off.”
Jiang Yining looked at Xiao Yeyu.
“I’m sorry.” Xiao Yeyu’s lips twitched as she apologized grudgingly.
If it weren’t for Jiang Yining, she wouldn’t have apologized to such a person!
The man heard her grudging tone but did not argue.
He waved his hand and said cheerfully to Jiang Yining, “You’re lucky that it’s me today who’d let this go so easily. You’d be in a lot of trouble if it was someone else.”
“Thank you, Brother.”
“You’re welcome.”
The man waved his hand in dismissal.
Jiang Yining said to Xiao Yeyu, “You can take my seat. We’ll get off at the next stop. I’ll get you a taxi.”
“I’m sorry, Yining. I’ve troubled you.”
Xiao Yeyu sensed her displeasure and quickly lowered her posture.
“It’s fine,” Jiang Yining said calmly.
The bus arrived at the next stop.
Jiang Yining jumped off the bus without looking back, and Xiao Yeyu quickly followed suit.
Seeing this, Ye Xiaoxi could no longer sit still and quietly got off the bus as well.
“I’m so sorry…”
Xiao Yeyu’s eyes were read as she apologized to them repeatedly.
Ye Xiaoxi couldn’t bear to see Xiao Yeyu cry. She handed her a tissue and said, “Don’t cry. Actually, it’s like that when you take the bus. It’s always crowded… Yining and I are used to it. It’s your first time, so it’s understandable. Next time, don’t make yourself suffer and just follow us.”
“I wanted to hang with you but I didn’t control my temper just now.”
Xiao Yeyu refused to give up the chance to get close to Jiang Yining.
Ye Xiaoxi did not know how to comfort her.
Jiang Yining hailed a taxi and stared at Xiao Yeyu as she said, “If you really want to hang with us, don’t cry. I don’t like to coax people.”
“Okay.”
Xiao Yeyu quickly wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes.
“Get in.”
Jiang Yining raised her chin slightly, signaling for Xiao Yeyu to get into the taxi and go.
“What about you guys?” Xiao Ye Yu asked.
“We’ll wait for the next bus.”
“Why don’t we take the taxi together?”
“No need,” Jiang Yining refused coldly.
She knew Ye Xiaoxi very well. She would never take a taxi because the taxi fare would consume all of her daily living expenses. Jiang Yining could help her pay for the taxi, but Ye Xiaoxi would feel that she owed her.
Xiao Yeyu waited for a while and saw that neither of them had any intention of getting into the taxi with her.
Only then did she get in.
At night when Jiang Yining stepped into the living room at home, Lu Zhi looked up at her and said, “You are home an hour later than usual.”
“I was delayed on the way.”
“By what?”
Jiang Yining put her backpack on the sofa and opened a canned drink. She took a sip and placed the can on the coffee table.
“Take a guess.”
Lu Zhi glanced at her drink. “I can’t guess.”
“It has something to do with Xiao Yeyu.”
“How are you involved with her?”
“She enrolled for double major at the university and she’s now my classmate. She also left school with us today.” Jiang Yining took another sip of her drink and felt that it was a little cold, so she didn’t touch it anymore.
“A coincidence?”
Lu Zhi felt that things were not as simple as they seemed.
He had met enough people who fawned over the powerful. Xiao Yeyu had just met Yining a few days ago, and she had already joined her class. He couldn’t help but be suspicious.
However, he didn’t think that he was the reason. Instead, he thought that Xiao Yeyu was trying to cozy up to Yining.
So that she could use her to seek benefits for the Xiao family.
“Yes.”
Jiang Yining didn’t like Xiao Yeyu very much. She felt that she was spoiled and slightly pretentious.
But Ye Xiaoxi seemed to like her.
So, she accepted it.
Lu Zhi then said, “It’s good to have more friends but be careful not to be used by others.”
“I know.”
“I’m a little thirsty.”
“Have some tea if you are thirsty.” Why was he telling her? Jiang Yining felt that Lu Zhi was acting strange.
“No need.”
Lu Zhi picked up her canned drink from the table and took a sip.
“I’ve drunk out of that.”
Jiang Yining’s mouth twitched.
“Yes, I know. I don’t mind.”
He didn’t mind?
She was the one who didn’t mind him, okay?
Jiang Yining shouted in her heart, but she didn’t say anything.
Anyway, she wouldn’t drink out of that can again.
At the hospital…
Old Madam Lu walked to the ward and saw that Chen Kexin was asleep. She called Chen Qinglian out and said, “That b*stard Ah Zhi has asked his grandfather behind my back to propose marriage to the Xu family. The marriage contract has already been signed.”
“Old Madam, are you really going to watch Kexin marry Xu Chengzhi?” Chen Qinglian couldn’t accept the blow and cried, “Kexin only loves Ah Zhi. If she found out that she’ll be married off to the Xu family, she would definitely wish she was dead.”
“Of course, I won’t let Kexin marry that Xu boy. I’ve also given the old master an ultimatum. If he forced Kexin to marry Xu Chengzhi, I’ll move out of the Lu residence with you.”
“Old Madam, you are our only hope now,” Chen Qinglian said as she started to kneel before the old madam.
Old Madam Lu hurriedly stopped her from kneeling. “Qinglian, I remember all the things you’ve done for the Lu family. I also remember how Kexin almost lost her life to save Ah Zhi’s… Everything you’ve done is engraved in my heart. I won’t mistreat you and your daughter.”
“Thank you,” Chen Qinglian said in a choked voice.
“I came today just to give you a heads-up. Take good care of Kexin. Don’t let her hear any rumors. I’ll take care of things back home…”
“Alright, I’ll follow your lead.”
“Keep this card.” Old Madam Lu took out a bank card and stuffed it into her hand.
“Old Madam, I can’t take your money…” Chen Qinglian pretended to decline.
“Be good, keep it. This money is not for you, but for Kexin. She has suffered recently. Take the money and buy her something to nourish her body.”
“Yes.”
Chen Qinglian put the card into her pocket.
“I still have things to do. Why don’t you go back in and look after Kexin?”
“Old Madam, aren’t you going to see Kexin?”
“Not today.”
After Old Madam Lu finished speaking, she gestured for Chen Qinglian to go back into the ward.
However, Chen Qinglian said, “Old Madam, I’ll see you off before I go back inside.”
“You…”
Old Madam Lu sighed, but she still turned and left.
As soon as she left, Chen Qinglian turned on her mobile phone and access her bank account. She keyed in the bank card number and password.
She smiled in satisfaction after seeing the five million yuan safely in her account.
Jiang Yining had dinner with Lu Zhi.
She was about to gossip with the housekeeper about recent events at the old Lu residence when a servant announced that Old Madam Lu was at the door.
Jiang Yining heard the servant and asked in confusion, “Is she asking to come in?”
In the past, the arrogant and despotic old madam had always barged in.
Why would she be so polite this time?
“Yes. Old Madam said it herself.” The servant replied.
Jiang Yining looked at Lu Zhi to seek his opinion.
Lu Zhi said coldly, “Ask her to please go home. No one is allowed in here for a while..”
