The resort was brightly lit.
Chen Kexin looked at the respectable man in front of her and felt a little afraid.
After all, the person in front of her was Jiang Yining’s uncle. Even if he didn’t agree to their marriage, he wouldn’t do anything to harm her.
If he found out about what she had done to Jiang Yining in the past, he might get angry and punish her.
Just now, she was hot-headed and came looking for him.
But now, she was regretting it.
However, it was too late to escape. It would only make him suspicious.
Chen Kexin calmed herself down and said, “Uncle Gu, 1’11 help you get Yining to leave Lu Zhi. Can you help me with something?”
“What is it?” Gu Zhanqing sat on the sofa and asked coldly.
“Let Lu Zhi marry me.”
Chen Kexin bit her lower lip and made her request firmly.
Gu Zhanqing raised his eyebrows slightly. “You and Yining are love rivals?”
“Yes.” Chen Kexin clarified herself. “But 1 promise that I didn’t do anything to hurt her. Furthermore, before she came, Brother Ah Zhi had always liked me. The entire Lu family also knew that I was his future wife… Yining took away everything that should have belonged to me. I just want it back now.”
Gu Zhanqing was quite open about it. “I don’t care about the grudges between the two of you. I just want Yining to come with me. As for what happens between you and Lu Zhi, I don’t care.”
Chen Kexin heaved a sigh of relief.
That was good.
“Do you have any way to make Yining give up on Lu Zhi?”
Gu Zhanqing went straight to the point instead of beating around the bush.
“It’s very simple. As long as you find someone to take Yining away on the night of the wedding, I’ll consummate the marriage with Lu Zhi on her behalf. The next morning, bring Yining and everyone in the Lu family to witness the moment when Lu Zhi and I are lying on the same bed. 1 don’t think any woman can withstand such an impact. At that time, would you still be worried that she wouldn’t leave with you?”
Chen Kexin told him her plan without reservation.
This time, she was determined to go all out.
Jiang Yining managed to avert all the traps she had set previously.
In the end, Jiang Yining didn’t suffer, but she ended up in a miserable state.
So she didn’t want to listen to her mother anymore. She wanted to join forces with Gu Zhanqing to take down Lu Zhi and chase Jiang Yining away!
Gu Zhanqing glanced at her and said, “1 didn’t expect you to have such vicious thoughts at such a young age.”
“If it were you who had everything taken away, perhaps you would be even more ruthless than me.” Chen Kexin didn’t think that she had gone overboard.
Compared to Jiang Yining, she was already merciful enough.
“Mr. Gu, please consider my suggestion. Doing this won’t harm Yining at all. Even if I fail, it will only cost my innocence. 1’11 wait for your reply.”
Chen Kexin bowed and turned to leave.
However, Gu Zhanqing said, “Alright, I’ll work with you.”
Chen Kexin became ecstatic. She tried her best to suppress the surge of emotions and said clearly, “Alright, I’ll wait for your good news.”
“Yes.”
Gu Zhanqing raised his voice and instructed the driver, “Send this lady back.”
“Yes, Sir.”
At the Lu family’s old residence.
Jiang Yining and Lu Zhi explained to Old Master Lu that Gu Zhanqing was not feeling well, and he left early.
“Will there be a problem?” Old Master Lu asked worriedly. “There’s a doctor at home. Why didn’t you call him over to take a look?”
“My uncle is not used to having outsiders treat him. He has his own private doctor. Grandfather, his condition isn’t serious. Don’t worry.” Jiang Yining comforted him.
“Alright then. I’ll call Zhanqing later to ask about his condition.” Old Master Lu finally let this matter go. He invited them to sit down and chat with him.
Jiang Yining stayed with Old Master Lu for a while before she realized that Old Madam Lu wasn’t around tonight.
No wonder the whole night went so smoothly.
“Grandpa, where did Grandma go?” Jiang Yining couldn’t help but ask.
“I sent someone to send her to Japan to soak in the hot springs. She’ll only be back tomorrow.” Old Master Lu had given Jiang Yining eight percent of the shares behind his wife’s back. If she found out, wouldn’t the entire Lu family be overturned? Therefore, he lied to his wife yesterday and said that the Gu family would only arrive the day after tomorrow.
He coaxed her to go to Japan to relax while there was still time.
Old Madam Lu was still considering it. When she woke up early today, she was dragged to the airport by him.
Jiang Yining was touched by Old Master Lu’s schemes, but she also felt sorry for him. After all, her marriage with Lu Zhi was not a real one, but Old Master Lu was genuine toward her.
If he knew the truth in the future…
How sad would he be?
Jiang Yining felt that Gu Zhanqing was ruthless. He specifically said those words to force her to leave the Lu family. He had achieved his goal. Now, facing Old Master Lu and Lu Zhi, her heart started to waver.
Old Master Lu saw that her expression was a little off and patted her shoulder. “Don’t worry. I’ll deal with your grandmother when she comes back. I won’t let her find trouble with you.”
“Yes, Grandpa. Thank you.”
Jiang Yining thanked him.
“Silly child.”
He was the one who had let them down.
Old Master Lu felt that if he had been stronger and suppressed his wife, he would not have caused trouble every time. However, he had already spent most of his life with his wife. He really could not do anything about her and could only try his best to maintain the balance of the family.
Old Master Lu sighed silently in his heart and did not say anything else.
They stayed at the Lu residence until late at night before the two of them got up and left.
Old Master Lu had planned to send them out, but Jiang Yining didn’t let him and told him to rest early.
He had no choice but to return to his bedroom.
Jiang Yining and Lu Zhi walked into the courtyard and bumped into Chen Kexin who had just returned.
When Chen Kexin saw them, her expression was a little strange, but she still nodded obediently and greeted, “Hello, Young Master Ah Zhi and Young Mistress.”
Lu Zhi’s expression was calm as he accepted her greeting.
However, Jiang Yining became very suspicious. Was there something wrong with her ears?
Chen Kexin actually addressed her as the Young Mistress?
Also, the way she addressed All Zhi…
Didn’t she always call him Brother Ah Zhi in a sweet manner?
Chen Kexin naturally noticed Jiang Yining’s surprised gaze. She gritted her teeth and suppressed the shame in her heart.
Last time, she and Tao Niannian had invited outsiders to their house and caused a huge mess.
Old Master Lu was very angry and ordered her to address the Lu family members the same as the other servants in the future. Moreover, her words and actions were not to be out of line. He even sent someone to supervise her every word and action. If she didn’t follow, her meals would be reduced and she wouldn’t get her salary.
Chen Kexin knew that the old man gave such an order to remind her of her identity.
She was not the young miss, but a lowly servant of the Lu family!
She was no longer as intimate with Old Master Lu as before.
However, such bitter days would soon come to an end.
She only had to wait until the day of the wedding!
Chen Kexin lowered her eyes and stopped looking at Jiang Yining.
She was afraid that she would notice something amiss.
Jiang Yining was only distracted for a moment before she quickly composed herself and followed Lu Zhi into the car calmly..
