Chapter 28 Do you like her?

Suddenly, a warm big hand grabbed her wrist and pulled her out of the private room with a little force.

An Ning didn't have time to think too much and followed his pace.

They were led to an empty corridor, where the man stopped and let go of her.

He turned around, put his hands in his pockets, and looked at her slightly swollen cheeks with deep eyes.

He sells blood in the morning, works at a food stall in the evening, and delivers takeout in the middle of the night.

Is this a case of money over life?

He didn't say anything. An Ning didn't know why, but she felt a little guilty and didn't dare to look up at him.

She lowered her eyes and stared at the spotless surface of his shoes beneath his straight, slender legs.

The corridor was too quiet, so quiet that I could hear my own heartbeat and light breathing.

He didn't say anything, but An Ning felt a strong sense of oppression surrounding her.

She froze just as she was about to speak and break the delicate atmosphere.

"Are you short of money?"

A man's deep voice came from above his head, sounding a little angry.

Although An Ning didn't know why he was angry.

But she still felt a little nervous unconsciously, and her hands in front of her body were tightly clenched at the fingertips.

He lowered his head and said, "I delivered it for a friend."

Seeing her lowering her eyes and head like a child who had done something wrong, Lu Xiyan suddenly felt a little soft-hearted.

He unconsciously lowered his tone, "Have you finished delivering it?"

"This is the last order." An Ning lowered her eyes, staring at his shoes, and answered honestly.

Lu Xiyan couldn't see her expression, he could only see her soft hair.

The person standing in front of him with his head lowered looked like a student being scolded.

He suddenly felt a little funny, and there was a hint of laughter in his tone, "Go back and rest after you send it off."

Hearing this, An Ning raised her eyes and met his deep eyes with a faint smile.

He was so handsome, so handsome that it seemed as if he didn't belong in her world.

Lu Xiyan smiled lightly, her lips red and her teeth white, "Text me when you get home."

"oh."

An Ning nodded obediently, then turned around and ran away.

Staring at her hurriedly running back, Lu Xiyan unconsciously curled up the corners of his mouth, and his bright and deep eyes sparkled.

......

After returning to the private room and sitting down for a while, the screen of the mobile phone on the table suddenly lit up.

Liang Xu took the initiative to glance over, "An Ning?"

Lu Xiyan quickly picked up the phone, swiped the screen to open the chat box, and a slight curve appeared at the corner of his mouth.

An Ning: [I'm home.]

Liang Xu looked at him suspiciously, "Is the girl who just delivered the takeaway called An Ning?"

Lu Xiyan said "hmm" casually, and tapped the phone with his bony fingers.

【good. 】

"Could the message you have been waiting for be from this girl?" Liang Xu asked.

Lu Xiyan glanced at him, "What's wrong?"

Liang Xu asked in surprise, "Do you like her?"

The finger on the screen stopped moving, and Lu Xiyan turned to look at Liang Xu, "I'm curious."

Liang Xu was puzzled. "What's a delivery guy curious about? A rich and powerful young man is curious about the hard life of a common girl?"

Lu Xiyan put away the smile on his face and asked, "Do you still want to be reimbursed?"

Threatening with money when there is a disagreement?

“Dededede!”

Liang Xu helplessly spread his hands, "I'm reminding you, Second Young Master Lu, that while curiosity is fine, don't get yourself involved. If you're just playing around, it's fine, but if you're serious, forget it. You're the second young master of the Lu Group, and your marriage still has to pass your grandfather's test."

Lu Xiyan glanced at him and asked, "Why are you becoming more and more like our housekeeper?"

The phone rang again, and another text message came.

[I'm sorry for the takeaway today. I'm sorry for disturbing your meal. 】

......

After sending the message, An Ning stared at the chat box for a long time.

Driven by curiosity, she clicked on the other person's profile picture and opened the circle of friends...a horizontal line.

Nothing?

A reply popped up on the interface: [It doesn’t matter. ]

An Ning stared at these three words for a long time, thought for a moment, and replied: [Thank you for today, I owe you another favor.]

The other party's message came back immediately, it was a short voice message.

An Ning looked at the white chat box and her heart skipped a beat.

"Then you can treat me to a meal some other day."

The voice is clear, pleasant, and has a hint of... indescribable tenderness.

My heart suddenly skipped a beat.

She picked up the phone again, put it to her ear, and listened to the voice again.

Over and over again.

I kept every word and tone of his voice in my mind.

The voice message is not long, but I can never get enough of it.

An Ning never believed that anyone could be anyone else's salvation, but when she listened to the voice that penetrated into her heart, she seemed to have a glimmer of hope, so she was able to save herself.

She unconsciously smiled.

Another voice message came from the phone.

An Ning was about to click it with great joy, but suddenly the next second, her beating heart sank.

She subconsciously calculated the remaining savings she had and hesitated for a long time before clicking on the voice call.

Li Chunfang's voice was brief and her tone was so calm that it was almost cold.

"An Ning, come back tomorrow morning."

......

The next morning, when An Ning walked to the alley entrance, she did not meet Chen Yumei. She wanted to pay An Tianhua back the money she owed for the wine.

The convenience store was also closed, which was rare.

"Hey, isn't this peaceful?"

A thin voice sounded behind her. An Ning turned around and saw that it was Chen Yumei's daughter Xu Jiaojiao.

Next to her stood a young man about her height, holding her hand and asking, "Jiaojiao, who is this?"

Xu Jiaojiao glanced at An Ning with disdain. "My high school classmate, that poor, pretentious girl who loves to win sympathy from men."

Liu Jun looked at An Ning with malicious eyes, "You look pretty good, the type that men like."

"What do you mean, Liu Jun?"

Xu Jiaojiao angrily shook off Liu Jun's hand, "You're also attracted to her slutty look, aren't you?"

"How could I possibly like her?" Liu Jun quickly coaxed her and hugged her, "I only love you, Jiaojiao."

Xu Jiaojiao pretended to struggle for a few times, and finally let Liu Jun hug her with satisfaction.

An Ning didn't want to pay any attention to Xu Jiaojiao. They were in the same class for three years of high school. Xu Jiaojiao was not as good as her in academics and always competed with her. She didn't want to mention the disgusting things she had done.

Even after so long since graduation, whenever the two of them meet, she still makes some unpleasant remarks.

An Ning didn't want to pay attention to the flirting between the two, and just as she was about to leave, she heard Xu Jiaojiao making love behind her again.

"My dear, let me tell you, her family is very poor. You don't know that her mother asked for a betrothal gift of 200,000 yuan just to subsidize her poor family."

An Ning suddenly stopped, turned around, and asked indifferently, "What betrothal gift?"

Xu Jiaojiao laughed contemptuously when she heard this, "Look, you're pretending again."

She looked at An Ning with disdain, "Don't say you don't know, your mother wants you to marry my cousin and asked for a betrothal gift of 200,000 yuan. She's discussing the marriage at your house right now."
