Chapter 228 I Married Your Ex-Husband

It wasn't until this moment that Jiang Ning realized he was laughing.

Her smile was definitely one of schadenfreude.

"You're so happy that I'm not going to see Lin Wanrong?"

Upon hearing Lu Junyan's words, Jiang Ning took a sip of coffee before turning her attention to Lu Junyan.

The two of them were separated by a desk and looked at each other.

This scene left Jiang Ning feeling incredulous.

Not long ago, she was a housewife who rarely left her home.

"This kind of happiness is not the same as that kind of happiness."

Jiang Ning deliberately replied to Lu Junyan with a very literary phrase.

She was definitely happy to have caused the Lin family to lose face.

"I heard... Yuan Pei helped you bully Fu Xinyue?"

Jiang Ning was taken aback, thinking to himself that Lu Junyan's information network was indeed very efficient.

"That's the clear justice of heaven, and retribution is inevitable... What Yuan Pei did to Xinyue can hardly be considered bullying."

As soon as Jiang Ning finished speaking, the smile on Lu Junyan's face vanished instantly.

"You're so biased towards Yuan Pei... Have you forgotten how he used to scold you?"

Jiang Ning shrugged.

"I'm not that petty, and besides, people change..."

At this point, Jiang Ning softly repeated:

People change.

Some things are getting better.

For example, Yuan Pei.

However, some...

Jiang Ning silently took a sip of coffee.

fine……

The coffee Xiao Zhang made wasn't bitter; it was sweet.

At this moment, Lu Junyan's voice rang out again:

Do you really think Yuan Pei is good to you?

Jiang Ning tilted her head and saw Lu Junyan with a sullen face, his deep black eyes as cold as ice.

"Yuan Pei was just doing you a favor... If Fu Xinyue were still the same Fu family heiress, do you think he would still dare to help you take revenge?"

"No matter what, Yuan Pei took the initiative to help me vent my anger..."

"But the person who can help you bring down the Fu family is me..."

Jiang Ning vaguely heard Lu Junyan mutter this sentence in a low voice.

She was stunned.

If we have to say something, Lu Junyan is indeed largely responsible for Fu Xinyue's current predicament.

However, Jiang Ning did not understand what Lu Junyan was doing.

Is he trying to curry favor with her?

Jiang Ning stared at Lu Junyan's frowning face and couldn't help but chuckle.

She shouldn't think too much about it.

Feeling that Lu Junyan brought her to the office just to make fun of Yuan Pei, Jiang Ning finished her coffee and stood up.

She lost her grip on the bag and it fell to the ground, spilling out a small, exquisite jewelry box.

Before Jiang Ning, Lu Junyan bent down and picked up the jewelry box.

I opened it casually and found a brooch inside.

The brooch was a work in progress, as the gemstones had not yet been set. However, judging from the metal frame alone, Lu Junyan thought it was a men's brooch.

"For the client?"

"no."

Jiang Ning snatched the gift box from Lu Junyan's hand and stuffed it back into her bag.

Lu Junyan watched Jiang Ning leave his office, a charming smile curving his lips.

next month……

It's his birthday.

After leaving the Lu Group, Jiang Ning drove his car to a very remote development zone.

There is a newly built fitness plaza here.

Since the surrounding buildings are not yet occupied, the fitness plaza looks deserted and empty.

After parking his car, Jiang Ning walked into the fitness plaza and saw Zhong Cheng playing on the slide all by himself.

Zhong Cheng is no longer a child, and wearing a suit is really not suitable for him to go on the slide.

Jiang Ning couldn't help but laugh:

"Is this because you still have a childlike heart?"

Zhong Cheng also saw Jiang Ning and slid down the slide.

"It's like being reminded of the times I played on the slide with you."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning's smile vanished instantly.

"Yes! When I was little, you were the only one who would go down the slide with me."

Upon hearing Jiang Ning's words, Zhong Cheng immediately realized he had misspoke and slapped his own mouth.

"Feel sorry……"

"fine."

Jiang Ning shook his head.

She's not the only one in the world who grew up without her parents.

At least she had Zhong Cheng to play on the slide with, which was already a blessing.

She and Zhong Cheng leaned against each other on either side of the slide.

She asked first, "Is Lin Wanrong at the Lu family's house right now?"

"Yes, the minister and his wife are also at Mr. Lu's villa."

Jiang Ning thought to himself: As expected.

Zhong Cheng scrutinized Jiang Ning's face, and spoke as if to himself, "If Minister Lin's adopted daughter really married your ex-husband..."

Jiang Ning thought he wouldn't feel anything when he heard those words.

However, she overestimated herself.

It's like a small pebble being thrown into a lake of the heart, creating tiny ripples.

Jiang Ning took a deep breath of the cold air and slowly exhaled.

Originally, it was none of her business if Lu Junyan, her ex-husband, remarried to anyone else.

However, the most likely marriage partner turned out to be the Lin family.

Although she has no connection with the Lin family in terms of household registration.

However, by blood, Lin Yueheng and Chu Yao are her biological parents.

The thought that her biological parents would one day become Lu Junyan's parents-in-law left Jiang Ning speechless.

"It's my fault, I shouldn't have mentioned them..."

Jiang Ning raised his hand to interrupt the topic.

"Let's get down to business!"

She took a document out of her handbag.

"My plans are all written here, and only you know them. You are my biggest asset right now."

Zhong Cheng took the document from Jiang Ning's hand.

He's a hacker himself, so he doesn't trust electronic documents.

This paper document from Jiang Ning was clearly prepared specifically for him.

In his memory, Jiang Ning had always been a considerate child.

Unfortunately, the Lin family did not cherish this thoughtfulness.

Zhong Cheng sighed silently, then heard Jiang Ning say:

"The fake identities mentioned here need to be revealed quickly, so as not to arouse their suspicion."

"Leave it to me! I've never let you down when you ask me to do something!"

"Um."

Seeing Zhong Cheng extend his fist towards her, Jiang Ning also extended her hand and bumped fists with Zhong Cheng.

Lu Junyan did not return to the Green Lake Villa until the sun had set.

The servants tried to wink at him when they saw him.

As Lu Junyan entered the villa, he first saw the displeased faces of Lu Yexiong and Yang Liyun.

Immediately afterwards, the Lin family of three came into his view.

Lu Junyan's long eyelashes lifted slightly.

Unexpectedly... even though he stood the other person up for a whole day, they still hadn't left.

Lu Junyan imagined the Lin family would fly into a rage and slam the door shut as they left.

"Minister Lin, Madam Lin, I'm sorry I'm late. There's something going on at the company that I can't leave."

Lu Junyan took the initiative to apologize.

Since the other party hadn't left, he naturally had to show at least some basic politeness.

Although Lu Yexiong and Yang Liyun wouldn't believe him, nor would the Lin family.

"It's alright, business comes first."

"Junyan is such a dedicated and good kid, no wonder the Lu family is thriving."

Lin Yueheng and Chu Yao's magnanimity made Lu Junyan realize that the two seemed to be interested in him, even though it was so late, they still wanted to see him.

Subconsciously, Lu Junyan turned his head to look for Lin Wanrong. At that moment, the sound of a piano came from the music room.

The piece was his favorite Chopin Nocturne.

Lu Junyan realized that Lin Wanrong was playing the piano in the music room.

He can play the piano, but only to the point where he can pass a certain grade.

They are far from reaching the level of a pianist.

Lin Wanrong plays better than him.

As the music ended, Lu Junyan saw Lin Wanrong walk out of the music room with a confident smile on her face.

"I wonder who plays better, your first love or your white moonlight?"
