Chapter 238: Young Mrs. Lu’s Being Jealous (1)
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
When Jiang Yining heard that Jiang Ron had arrived in A-City, she wasn’t surprised at all. Gu Zhanqing didn’t approve of her marriage to Lu Zhi, and he would definitely do everything in his power to obstruct it. He had been quiet for a while now, probably conspiring behind the scenes.
Jiang Rou was her only family member in this world.
He would surely have informed her to dissuade her from marrying Lu Zhi.
“If she’s here, we’ll meet her.” Jiang Yining’s response was quite indifferent.
Lu Zhi had heard about her childhood and knew the underlying reasons.
“If you don’t want to go, you don’t have to force yourself.”
“Of course, I’ll go. I want All Rou and Gu Zhanqing to see how happy I am without them!” Jiang Yining’s words carried a hint of bitterness.
Lu Zhi thought to himself, “She’s still just a little girl. She can keep her composure most of the time, but when it comes to something she cares about, her true emotions surface.” He reached out and patted Jiang Yining’s hair, saying, “Well, then, let’s go. Don’t worry. Your dignity won’t be compromised.” “What are you up to?” Jiang Yining had a feeling that he was planning something.
“You’ll find out soon,” Lu Zhi teased, deliberately keeping her in suspense.
Jiang Yining waited eagerly.
After notifying her, Lu Zhi left to prepare for their meeting that evening.
Jiang Yining, on the other hand, lit a lighter and burned the draft paper.
She had a photographic memory, and the information from the paper was already etched into her mind. There was no need to keep it.
She didn’t want Lu Zhi to discover that she had been investigating Lu Beicheng’s affairs.
It was better to be cautious.
Lu Zhi had arranged to meet Gu Zhanqing in the evening.
As for the meeting place, it was the same mountainside estate they had visited last time.
He had even arranged a helicopter to pick both of them up.
Then, he and Jiang Yining took a car to the estate to await their arrival.
Around seven o’clock, the sound of a helicopter echoed over the estate.
Before long, the helicopter descended and landed safely in the center of the estate.
In the next moment, Gu Zhanqing jumped out of the cabin, turned, and extended his hand to help Jiang Rou down.
Jiang Rou smiled gently, showing her complete trust in him.
After they had both landed safely, guided by Ah Man, they walked a short distance.
There, they saw the carefully dressed Lu Zhi and Jiang Yining.
The moment Jiang Rou saw Jiang Yining, she rushed forward, her eyes brimming with tears, and hugged her tightly. “Yining, why did you run away to A-City? Do you know how worried I’ve been since you left home? Seeing that you’re safe finally puts my heart at ease.”
“I’m not a child anymore. I’m twenty years old now, and I know exactly what I’m doing. You should stay peacefully in the Gu family and be their precious daughter. There’s no need to worry about me,” Jiang Yining replied, her demeanor far from the excitement and warmth displayed by Jiang Rou.
Jiang Rou, feeling somewhat embarrassed, lowered her voice and said, “Are you still mad at me?”
“Why would I be mad at you? I’m very happy now, and I should thank you and Gu Zhanqing for that,” Jiang Yining reluctantly uttered these words and distanced herself from Jiang Rou. She then linked her arm with Lu Zhi’s and affectionately introduced him, saying, “Let me introduce for you. This is my husband. He’s from the prestigious Lu family in A-City, and he currently heads the Lu Corporation.”
It was only at this point that Jiang Rou shifted her gaze to the other people present.
Lu Zhi was far more handsome than she had imagined.
Finding someone like him to marry was beyond her expectations.
“Hello, Brother-in-law,” Jiang Rou extended her hand, making a friendly gesture.
Lu Zhi looked at the girl in front of him, who bore a striking resemblance to Jiang Yining, with some surprise. However, he could still distinguish between Jiang Yining and Jiang Rou.
Jiang Rou appeared to be the kind of girl who was pitiable and delicate, in need of someone to rely on. Jiang Yining, on the other hand, was different—strong, confident, and radiant. Even in a crowd of millions, she would stand out. “Brother-in-law?” Jiang Rou blushed as Lu Zhi continued to gaze at her, and she shyly repeated her greeting.
Lu Zhi extended his hand and lightly touched her fingertips. “I’ve heard Yining mention you a long time ago and knew that you and she are twins. But I never expected you two to look so much alike.”
Jiang Rou smiled softly. “From childhood to now, everyone who meets us says we look very similar and can’t tell us apart.”
“I can tell.” Lu Zhi turned to look at Jiang Yining and lovingly patted her head. “I can always tell who is Yining with just one glance.”
He would never mistake his baby for anyone else..
