Chapter 307 Who told you to hold me so tight?

When Lu Ning saw Ji Chiqian's dark face, she felt a little better.

She turned and walked towards the elevator.

Soon, she heard steady footsteps catching up from behind her, and she knew who it was without having to guess.

The elevator door opened and Lu Ning walked in. From the corner of her eye, she noticed Ji Chiqian also came in and stood beside her.

The two men stood close to each other, with a fist's distance between them.

The elevator was very quiet. Lu Ning looked up and saw her reflection in the elevator door. She met his dark gaze and instantly lowered her eyelids.

Lu Ning could feel a pair of eyes on her that could not be ignored, but she just didn't want to look up.

Ji Chiqian looked at her helplessly, his eyes fixed on her fair face. He had hardly slept well in the past few days.

Whether I open my eyes or close them, I see her angrily saying we should break up.

He had never been so anxious and angry in his life, but he couldn't do anything to her.

Not long after, the elevator door opened.

Before Ji Chiqian could think of what to say, Lu Ning beside him walked out without looking back.

He chased after her irritably and depressedly: "Wait a minute, I'll take you back."

"No need to go to so much trouble, Mr. Ji. There are many taxis here, it's very convenient."

Lu Ning turned around and looked at him, her eyes and attitude were very distant.

Ji Chiqian was feeling depressed and took a deep breath: "I have something to tell you."

"I think everything that needs to be said has been said."

Lu Ning turned around and tried to leave, but he pulled her back and she fell into his arms.

She subconsciously wanted to struggle, but the man held her tightly.

Lu Ning couldn't help but say, "Ji Chiqian."

"I am here."

"You are shameless."

Ji Chiqian didn't answer. It was better to be shameless than having his girlfriend run away.

At this time, a luxury car drove over and rolled down the window: "Ms. Lu."

When Lu Ning looked up and saw Mrs. Chen sitting in the car, she blushed and pushed Ji Chiqian away. She was quite strong and when Ji Chiqian was caught off guard, he was almost pushed to the ground.

Ji Chiqian looked a little embarrassed. He turned his head to look at the people in the car and said, "Mrs. Chen, what can I do for you?"

The man's eyes were filled with displeasure. If Mrs. Chen hadn't suddenly appeared, he would have already taken Lu Ning into the car.

Why does someone come to disturb me at this time?

Mrs. Chen also noticed the displeasure on Ji Chiqian's face and knew that she had probably disturbed something, but she did not notice that the man Lu Ning was hugging was Ji Chiqian.

After the last incident in the Pear Garden, Mrs. Ji should know who the girl Ji Chiqian is protecting. Why haven't they separated yet?

But seeing how protective Ji Chiqian is, it seems they won't be separated for a while.

Mrs. Chen said to Ji Chiqian apologetically: "I'm sorry, I didn't notice that Mr. Ji was here. I have something to say to Miss Lu."

Lu Ning was a little curious. What did Mrs. Chen want to say to her?

She had only met Mrs. Chen once.

She walked over and asked: "What does Mrs. Chen want to say?"

"I heard that the Lu family has an adopted daughter named Qin Xiang. She seems to have a good relationship with your brothers. Your eldest brother has cleaned up her messes several times."

When Lu Ning heard what Mrs. Chen said, she probably guessed what Mrs. Chen meant.

She smiled and said, "You should also know that my parents died in a car accident that year, and Qin Xiang's father, who was a driver, also died. My eldest brother took Qin Xiang to the Lu family to raise her. They have a good relationship and he has always protected her."

"It's more than just protection. For the sake of that adopted sister, he ignored you and showed partiality to her. If I didn't know that Qin Xiang was an adopted sister, I would have thought your eldest brother had some feelings for Qin Xiang."

Ji Chiqian spoke with sarcasm, and did not hesitate to throw dirty water on Lu Dongyou and Qin Xiang.

Mrs. Chen frowned after hearing this: "I don't think Lu Dongyou is such a confused man."

If they didn't understand clearly, the Chen family would not agree to let Lu Dongyou be their son-in-law.

Ji Chiqian's eyes were particularly cold and stern: "Aunt Chen, if you just do a little research, you will know that the Lu family is partial to each other. Those are not rumors, they are all true."

Mrs. Chen stopped talking immediately.

Ji Chiqian continued, "Aunt Chen, if your family wants to choose a live-in son-in-law, it's best to re-examine his character."

Anyway, he felt that Lu Dongyou was not suitable.

Lu Ning actually felt the same way.

At this time, Ji Chiqian's car had already driven to the side of the road.

He pulled Lu Ning into the car.

Lu Ning glanced at Mrs. Chen's car behind them and asked, "Hasn't the Chen family investigated Lu Dongyou's character before, or the Lu family's situation?"

"Because the Lu family has always lived in City A, even if they wanted to investigate, they would only find that you have a bad reputation."

Ji Chiqian turned his head and looked at her: "As for character, as long as a man wants to pretend, you can't see it at all."

But he regretted it as soon as he said it.

Lu Ning raised her eyebrows slightly: "Young Master Ji is right. It seems that you know yourself very well."

Ji Chiqian had no words to express his grievances. Isn't this called shooting oneself in the foot?

He replied somewhat unsurely: "I, at least I don't intend to eat up the whole family."

"Are you afraid that I'll be attracted by your family's power and status?"

"There's nothing to be afraid of. As long as you promise not to be angry and not to break up, I can notarize all the property under my name into your name, and we can share all the property after marriage."

Lu Ning's face was hot, and she said awkwardly: "Who wants to marry you? I want to break up with you."

After hearing the word "break up", Ji Chiqian didn't dare to speak anymore.

He remained silent and didn't answer, anyway he disagreed.

Lu Ning turned her head to look at the car window, her eyes fell on his reflection, and her heart felt as if it was stuffed with a ball of cotton.

But now she couldn't help but care about the fact that he had deceived her.

The vehicle arrived outside the school.

Lu Ning opened the car door and left without looking back.

Ji Chiqian could only look at her back and rub his temples helplessly. He tugged at his tie and unbuttoned his shirt.

I'm afraid it will take some coaxing.

But the most urgent task is to stop his stepmother from adopting Lu Ning as her goddaughter. He doesn't lack a younger sister either.

After Lu Ning returned to the dormitory, she felt a little absent-minded when thinking about what had just happened.

She saw Chen Yu also returned to the dormitory, and actually wanted to ask her something, but later her brother chased her out to explain something.

Chen Yu saw what Lu Ning wanted to ask, so she spoke directly, "Your eldest brother explained for a long time, clarifying that he and Qin Xiang had no other relationship, that he only treated Qin Xiang as a sister, and that Qin Xiang was about to be engaged to Lu Wu."

Lu Ning wasn't surprised at all: "You saw with your own eyes today what the Lu family is like."

Chen Yu's eyes were clear: "I have decided to break up with your brother."

She didn't like Lu Dongyou much to begin with, but she witnessed what happened in the Liyuan today. However, Lu Dongyou was still lying to her, always speaking in Qin Xiang's favor and blaming Lu Ning for the incident of stealing the skirt.

This means that all the bad rumors about Lu Ning were false.

Lu Ning heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this: "I also think you and my eldest brother are not suitable. He is a very ambitious man."

It won't stop at being a live-in son-in-law.

Lu Dongyou is taking advantage of Chen Yu.

But as long as Chen Yu can see clearly who Lu Dongyou is, things will be much easier, at least he won't be deceived.

In the next few days, Lu Ning was preparing for the campus competition with the team.

On the day of the preliminary round, all the sponsors came.

When Lu Ning saw Mo Shiyi, she was a little dazed for a moment because she remembered the scene of their meeting in the coffee shop that day.

At that time, she was completely confused, sad and heartbroken.

Mo Shiyi walked over with a smile on her face: "Ms. Lu, you look much better than before. Girls should look forward. I'm glad to see that you can pick yourself up and start a new life."

Lu Ning stared at Mo Shiyi, her lips curled coldly: "I heard that Miss Mo and the Ji family are getting married soon?"

"This matter had been kept very low-key, but I didn't expect it to be exposed by paparazzi."

Mo Shiyi stroked her hair and smiled: "After all, Ah Qian and I are childhood sweethearts. No matter what happens, he and I will get married."

"Really? But why did Aunt Ji say that you two are not engaged?"

After Lu Ning finished speaking, Mo Shiyi's expression instantly cracked.
