When Jiang Luoning returned to the banquet again, he did not see Fu Linxiao and Jiang Linghao. He found a corner to sit down and watched everything at the banquet silently.
After looking around but not finding Chen Xu and Dong Siqing, he asked in a low voice: "Axing, where are Chen Xu and Dong Siqing?"
"They left the party a minute ago." Ah Xing replied
Jiang Luoning didn't say anything else, but lowered her head and took out her phone to send a message to Fu Linxiao, asking him where he was. As soon as she took out her phone, she heard Ah Xing's voice suddenly come from the headset: "Sister Ning, Brother Jiang is being entangled by Ling Qingya, near Gate 1."
It was Ling Qingya again. Why was he looking for his eldest brother? She recalled that Ling Qingya hadn't appeared in her previous life, yet this woman had been appearing around her frequently lately. What role did she play in all this? Was it a coincidence or a new scheme?
Jiang Luoning immediately stood up and walked towards Gate 1. As he approached, he heard Ling Qingya's delicate and artificial voice: "Brother Linghao, what I said is true. I was wondering why she was so arrogant in the business world. It turns out it's because she's trying to get close to Master Fu. She doesn't even look down on you, and she's so arrogant just because she's Master Fu's female companion. If she really has something going on with Master Fu, then she'd be ignoring the entire Jiang family..." He thought Ling Qingya had some clever tricks up her sleeve, but was just being sarcastic. However, this also piqued Jiang Luoning's curiosity. What exactly is the relationship between Ling Qingya and his eldest brother? How could his eldest brother listen to all her nonsense? Seeing that Jiang Linghao was still affectionate and indifferent, Jiang Luoning suddenly felt playful and walked away.
At this moment, Jiang Linghao silently made a mental note for Fu Linxiao. For some reason, he just didn't want to hear his sister's name mentioned alongside others. Ling Qingya had no idea what Jiang Linghao was thinking. Seeing him standing there without moving, she assumed her words had caught his attention and prepared to press the issue. But before she could open her mouth, a cold voice rang out from behind her.
"Brother Linghao, what are you guys talking about?" If it weren't for the intention of disgusting Ling Qingya, Jiang Luoning wouldn't normally address her elder brother with such a pretentious name. She walked over to stand across from Ling Qingya and then affectionately took Jiang Linghao's arm. Her clear eyes revealed a coquettish expression.
Seeing the newcomer, Ling Qingya's eyes were filled with uncontrollable anger. She didn't notice Jiang Linghao's doting eyes. When she saw Jiang Luoning's actions, she started to scold him like a queen, "You woman, let go of Brother Linghao. Brother Linghao hates other women coming into contact with him the most. Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you're pretty."
When Jiang Linghao heard Ling Qingya's words, his eyes darkened slightly. He looked at her with displeasure, and angrily scolded her in his heart! This disgusting woman actually called his sister like that. His Ning'er had finally become so close to him, and he couldn't let irrelevant people affect her. He was about to scold her.
Jiang Luoning scoffed, raising an eyebrow at Ling Qingya. "Oh? Miss, you just said that Brother Linghao hates contact because it's with other women, but with me? I can do whatever I want." As he spoke, Jiang Luoning tightened his grip on Jiang Linghao's arm, leaning towards him for a more intimate moment. Hearing him addressed as his own sister, coupled with Ling Qingya's words, was it anything he couldn't understand? The little girl was in the mood for fun. What could he do? Just go along with her, pamper her, and play along!
Jiang Linghao put his hand on Jiang Luoning's arm that was hugging him tightly, patted it gently and said in a soft voice: "You are still so naughty. Where did you go just now? I walked around the venue and didn't see you. I was about to go to the bathroom, but was stopped by an irrelevant friend." He completely ignored the palette-like expression on Ling Qingya's face. When he touched Jiang Luoning's arm, it felt slightly cold. He pretended to take off his coat and put it on his sister, and the person in his hand disappeared. Turning around, he saw Fu Linxiao standing behind them with a gloomy face, like a devil descending.
Ling Qingya on the opposite side trembled slightly when she saw Fu Linxiao. She paused and clenched her hands. Although she tried to control herself and appear calm, her uneasy fingers still betrayed her.
Jiang Luoning's cold face remained expressionless, as if everything that happened had nothing to do with her. She was just a spectator passing by. Fu Linxiao took off his suit jacket and put it on her, holding the collar with his hands to prevent it from slipping off.
Fu Linxiao walked over to Jiang Linghao and whispered a few words in his ear before leaving with Jiang Luoning. His voice was so low that it was impossible to hear what he was saying, but from his expression, it was clear that something bad had happened.
Jiang Luoning let Fu Linxiao hold her and leave. Thinking about Fu Linxiao's actions just now, she narrowed her eyes slightly and recalled the slight movement of his lips in her mind. "Sh... sh... car... brake... what car... brake! Fu Linxiao just said brake, whose brake! "Then she pulled out her phone and sent a text message to Ah Xing to retrieve the parking lot surveillance, but she found that the surveillance had been tampered with and it would take time to fix it. It would take a while.
He turned sideways to look at Fu Linxiao and asked, "What happened to the brakes you just mentioned?"
Fu Linxiao patted her shoulder soothingly without saying anything, and motioned her to leave first.
Jiang Linghao glanced at the two people who were walking away, and his voice became a little colder: "Miss Ling, take care of yourself. Don't become someone else's scapegoat without knowing it! As for the Jiang family, they can really let her do whatever she wants!" There was no doubt who the "she" in these words was referring to, leaving Ling Qingya standing there with a blank mind.
Who is she, exactly? Didn't Dong Siqing say she was just a young girl who had just returned from China? Why did she feel such an invisible sense of oppression when facing her? Jealousy was constantly at work, and Ling Qingya had long lost all reason. Seeing Jiang Linghao defending her like this, she was even more certain of what Dong Siqing had just said. This woman is a beauty who brings disaster. Not only does she cling to Master Fu, she also wants to drag the Jiang family down with her. The Jiang family, Jiang Linghao, the Jiang family mistress, this position belongs to her. Ling's father had taught her since she was a child that she must marry into the Jiang and Fu families to rise above the rest and enter the imperial capital's aristocratic families! No matter who this woman is, she can't hinder her plans.
Dong Siqing had just told her that as long as she was responsible for delaying Jiang Linghao, she would have a way to drive this woman out of the imperial capital, make her disappear, and help her marry into the Jiang family.
Thinking of this, Ling Qingya caught up with the direction Jiang Linghao left, but saw that the three of them got into the same business car.
