Chapter 340 Don’t Get So Close

Lu Ning began to guess why the old man wanted to see her, but it was all the same old things.

Either agree or disagree.

But she felt that the probability of disagreement was greater.

Ji Chiqian frowned directly: "She is injured and needs to rest. I will go talk to grandma."

Lu Ning looked at him: "Is this not a good idea?"

She heard that the old man was not in good health. What if he got angry?

Ji Chiqian looked at her deeply and said, "Let's go tomorrow. I'll go see grandma first."

"Yeah, okay."

Lu Ning watched Ji Chiqian leave the ward. She rubbed her temples. There would only be more troubles in the wealthy and chaebol families.

What exactly did Mrs. Ji want to say when she wanted to see her?

Lu Ning thought about it and finally sent a message to the dormitory group: "I'm in the hospital, please ask for leave for me."

After seeing the news, Chen Yu and Chen Guoguo rushed directly to the hospital.

Lu Ning was surprised: "Why are you here?"

"You said you were injured and hospitalized, how could we not come and see you?"

Chen Guoguo even specially packed some of Lu Ning's favorite food from the cafeteria and said, "I was worried that you wouldn't have anyone to take care of you in the hospital, so I brought you dinner."

"Thank you, but I can't eat for the time being."

Lu Ning's throat still feels uncomfortable and she has no appetite.

Chen Yu was very surprised: "Why did the fire suddenly start?"

"I guess someone tampered with it, but it's not clear yet and needs to be investigated."

Lu Ning looked at Chen Yu, then lowered her voice: "There is something I want to ask you."

"What's up?"

"Did you know that Mrs. Ji also lives in this hospital? She wants to see me."

After Lu Ning finished speaking, she looked at Chen Yu eagerly. After all, she didn't know much about wealthy families, but Chen Yu was different.

Chen Yu thought for a moment and then said, "I treat you as a friend, so I'm telling you the truth. The Ji family has high hopes for Big Brother Ji, so naturally they hope he'll marry someone of equal status."

"I guess so."

"But Grandma Ji is a good person. She's not that kind of person. I'll go see her later and try to find out what she's thinking."

Lu Ning smiled helplessly, but no matter what, the Lu family's status was too low.

Chen Guoguo and Chen Yu stayed with her for a while and then went back to school.

As soon as they left, Mrs. Ji arrived.

"Lu Ning, I heard you were injured?"

Mrs. Ji walked in anxiously from outside. She saw the burn on Lu Ning's leg at a glance and frowned immediately: "How could it be so serious?"

Lu Ning smiled and said, "It's not serious, it's not a big problem."

"It would be so ugly for a girl to have scars."

Mrs. Ji felt a little worried when she saw the injury on Lu Ning's calf.

At this time, Mrs. Mo walked in reluctantly: "I thought Ah Qian was in trouble too. Fortunately, he was lucky enough to be fine. Can you just walk into a fire? What if he gets hurt?"

Mrs. Mo implicitly blamed Lu Ning for letting Ji Chiqian save her.

When Lu Ning heard what Mrs. Mo said, she sneered in her heart. It turned out that the old ones are still the wisest.

Mrs. Mo said this to Mrs. Ji.

No mother would be willing to let her son risk his life to do something heroic like saving a damsel in distress.

Madam Mo wanted Madam Ji to be dissatisfied with her.

But Mrs. Ji disagreed: "Ah Qian is such a grown man, and he is quite skilled. It's nothing for him to help save someone."

What’s more, the person being rescued was Lu Ning.

A look of surprise flashed across Lu Ning's eyes. Did Madam Ji really not care? Or was she just acting?

But when Lu Ning saw Mrs. Ji's expression, it didn't seem like she was acting.

Mrs. Mo, who was standing next to her, felt a little uncomfortable. She looked at Mrs. Ji and said, "If anything happens to Ah Qian, I don't know where you'll cry. I don't know who just heard the news and ran over in a panic. Didn't they say they weren't worried about their son?"

"Oh, my son definitely knows his limits."

Although Mrs. Ji was also worried about Ji Chiqian, Ji Chiqian was fine now, and the injured person was Lu Ning.

Madam Mo was in a bad mood. "I heard that the old lady has woken up. Miss Lu, why don't you come with us to see her?"

Old Mrs. Ji definitely wouldn't like Lu Ning.

Madam Ji stood up and said, "Lu Ning, you are injured. Rest well. We won't disturb you anymore."

Lu Ning could only nod and say yes.

Madam Mo turned around and gave Lu Ning a meaningful look: "Since you are here and know that Old Madam Ji is in the hospital, as a junior, you should go and see her."

A hint of coldness flashed in Lu Ning's eyes, but she said nothing.

Mrs. Mo angrily withdrew her gaze and had to find a way to stop Ji Chiqian and Lu Ning from being together.

Just because of that car accident, there was no chance for Lu Ning and Ji Chiqian.

Old Mrs. Ji would not agree.

By then, Lu Ning had better be self-aware and take the initiative to leave Ji Chiqian, and don't force her to do it.

After the two left, Lu Ning lay on the bed in a daze.

Thinking that Old Mrs. Ji was also living in the hospital, she felt inexplicably irritated.

Whenever she closed her eyes, she could remember the man rushing out of the smoke, risking his life and desperately calling out her name.

His voice was anxious and worried.

Lu Ning covered her chest, feeling her heart beating so fast that it was about to jump out.

"Are you feeling unwell?"

The man's low, pleasant voice reached her ears.

Lu Ning opened her eyes nervously. Ji Chiqian was standing beside the bed. He reached out and touched her forehead with a very serious expression.

He said calmly: "The temperature is normal, but a little hot."

Lu Ning looked at the man in front of her. Her heartbeat became faster and her eyes flickered. "I, I'm fine."

Ji Chiqian bent down and looked at Lu Ning. He felt that her face seemed a little red. He touched her face with the back of his hand and said, "Take your temperature."

"No, I don't have a fever."

"But your temperature is a little high, so it's safer to take it."

Lu Ning blushed: "I, I just feel a little hot and my heartbeat is a little fast, that's all."

"I don't believe it."

Seeing that he was going to find a doctor, Lu Ning took his hand and placed it on his chest: "If you don't believe me, touch it."

Ji Chiqian felt a rapid heartbeat in his palm, which was transmitted to his chest again and again, causing his heartbeat to speed up a lot.

He lowered his eyes to look at her, and the soft touch on his palm made him lose his composure.

His voice became hoarse: "I touched it."

When Lu Ning met his slender eyes, she felt the temperature on her face rise a lot.

She let go of his hand in a panic, but the man stepped forward and trapped her on the bed.

Lu Ning's heartbeat was so fast that it could kill a deer.

What is this man doing so close?

Ji Chiqian bent down and approached her, his eyes fixed on her reddened features, and the more he looked at her, the cuter she looked.

He had just wanted to tease her, but his eyes couldn't help but fall on her tightly bitten lips, and his breathing became quite irregular.

I kind of want to kiss you.

When Ji Chiqian thought so, he did so.

But Lu Ning turned her head away and avoided him.

His thin lips slid across her ear, feeling a little cold.
