On the other side.
As soon as Yang Ni got home, she called Yuan Luochen and told him about Jiang Yining’s meeting with her. “Sir, she offered me twenty million to betray you. 1 didn’t agree with it. Don’t worry, I’ve chosen to cooperate with you. No matter how much the other party offers, I won’t be tempted.”
“Well done,” Yuan Luochen praised. “You’re so loyal, I won’t mistreat you. Since Jiang Yining is willing to give you 20 million yuan. After the matter is settled, I will give you the same amount of money.”
“Thank you, sir!” Yang Ni expressed her gratitude, overjoyed by the prospect.
That was great.
With money from Jiang Yining and now Yuan Luochen’s! This deal was really worth it!
Yuan Luochen continued, “I’ve arranged for a TV station interview for you. Tomorrow, you’ll bring them to Jiang Yining’s school to make a scene. Make sure to embarrass her.”
“Yes, sir, I understand.”
Yang Ni replied with a smile.
After hanging up the phone, Yuan Luochen smirked.
He thought, “Jiang Yining was truly naive. She actually wanted to bribe his people?”
The price she could afford, he could afford as well.
She was still young and didn’t understand the complexity of society.
Bound to fail!
When Jiang Yining returned home, she didn’t mention Yu Lingyu to Lu Zhi. Instead, she told him that she had already settled Yang Ni.
Lu Zhi always trusted her and said, “Since you’ve convinced her, I won’t interfere anymore. However, you still have to be careful of her. Someone who can betray Yuan Luochen might as well betray you.”
“Yes, I have my own ways of handling her.”
Jiang Yining smiled and leaned on his shoulder. She said, “In a couple of days, Cool Comics has arranged a book signing event for me. Readers are strongly requesting your presence. Mr. Lu, would you be willing to grace the occasion?”
“Are you asking me to sell my charm to boost your sales?” Lu Zhi asked meaningfully.
“You’re my husband. Shouldn’t you lend a helping hand when your wife is in a bind? As for selling charm, that’s too harsh a phrase.”
Jiang Yining leaned on his shoulder like a cat and played with his palm.
Lu Zhi leaned close to her ear and said, “No problem if you want me to help you. However, how are you going to repay me?”
His warm breath brushed against her ear.
Jiang Yining had always been sensitive, and her body couldn’t help but tremble.
Lu Zhi looked at her with a burning gaze, his intentions clear without uttering a word.
Jiang Yining was silent for a moment and said, “Lu Zhi, 1 heard that men’s sexual needs will weaken after the age of twenty-five. After the age of thirty, it’s almost gone. Why do you seem to be quite passionate about this?”
When Lu Zhi heard this, his face turned as black as ink. “Can 1 do it? Do you want to give it a try?”
Jiang Yining was speechless.
The next second…
She wanted to escape.
However, Lu Zhi pressed her down onto the sofa.
“Just because you’re young, 1 haven’t made a move on you. Never thought you’d misunderstand my abilities. Sweetie, our wedding has already been held. How about we complete the bridal chamber tonight?”
“I was wrong. I shouldn’t have doubted you. I’m sorry!” Jiang Yining admitted defeat.
Lu Zhi smiled and said, “It’s too late to admit your mistakes now!”
With that, he lowered his head.
He sealed her lips with a kiss.
The next day, Jiang Yining climbed out of bed with her red and swollen lips.
She sat in front of the mirror and looked at herself with regret.
Why did she provoke Lu Zhi?
Yesterday, she was almost tortured to death by him. Although they didn’t reach the last step, the rest… had been done.
Jiang Yining thought about last night and blushed.
She sat in the room and was lost in thought for a long time.
Only then did she walk out.
When they arrived downstairs, the servants had already prepared breakfast.
Lu Zhi sat at the side with a calm and noble expression. He showed no signs of the beastly behavior from last night.
What a cultured scum.
Jiang Yining pretended to be calm and sat opposite him.
Lu Zhi pushed the milk in front of her and said, “Drink more. It’s good for your health.”
“My health is fine. I don’t need supplements.”
“Is that so?” Lu Zhi asked lightly. He didn’t know who it was last night that had turned into a puddle after five minutes of kissing.
Jiang Yining’s body buzzed, and all the blood in her body flowed back to her brain. Her face was so hot that it was about to burn.
She picked up a piece of bread from the table and stuffed it into her mouth. She said, “Let’s eat. Don’t talk so much.”
Lu Zhi bit the bread into his mouth, a deep and ambiguous smile on his lips.
After breakfast.
Jiang Yining went to school.
As soon as she stepped into the school gate, she noticed numerous banners hanging on the campus. They were all publicizing Yan Ruo’s book signing event in the school..
