Chapter 120 Giving Up on Lu Junyan
"Wait."
Lu Junyan replied with just two words.
That's all there is to it.
Jiang Ning didn't react at first.
She thought that when Lu Junyan said "wait," he meant he was waiting for him to take out the divorce agreement.
Jiang Ning waited for a long time, but didn't see Lu Junyan make any move to take anything out of his coat pocket, nor did he seem to want to go back to the car to get something.
Seeing the increasingly surprised and confused expression on Jiang Ning's face, Lu Junyan was the first to react.
"What do you think I meant by 'waiting'?"
Jiang Ning blinked. "Of course, I'm waiting for you to bring out the divorce papers!"
Lu Junyan lowered his head and smiled.
"I haven't even prepared the divorce papers yet, you just wait!"
"..."
Jiang Ning was dumbfounded.
Are you kidding me?
Lu Junyan didn't continue the topic and put his hands in his coat pockets.
"I won't see you off. I have to have dinner with Qingxue tonight and buy her a gift."
Jiang Ning couldn't help but feel that Lu Junyan was deliberately saying this to her.
She raised an eyebrow.
"You don't need to tell me your itinerary, and I have a car, so I don't need you to drive me."
After saying that, she turned and left.
Lu Junyan's gaze did not leave Jiang Ning.
However, he wasn't staring at Jiang Ning's back.
Instead, he was looking at Jiang Ning's left hand.
The last time he noticed the ring on Jiang Ning's hand was at the entrance of this nursing home.
The daisy-patterned ring seemed quite ordinary and unremarkable to him.
But Jiang Ning kept wearing it, as if he had never taken it off.
Lu Junyan's brows furrowed involuntarily.
There are no races at the international racetrack tonight, so Jiang Ning invited Yuan Pei to go racing together.
Originally, Yuan Pei called her first, wanting to invite her to dinner. She was about to decline, but then she suddenly felt like racing, so she asked Yuan Pei if he wanted to come along.
Yuan Pei wasn't originally cut out to be a race car driver; he was at most an admirer. However, ever since he idolized Lin Chu, he had developed a real interest in racing cars. And with Jiang Ning's invitation, he was eager to show off his skills in front of his idol.
result……
Yuan Pei was naturally thoroughly humiliated by Jiang Ning.
Yuan Pei always felt that Jiang Ning was like a different person when he drove a race car.
On the track, Jiang Ning acted as if he were fearless. Several times when he was going around a corner, Yuan Pei was afraid that Jiang Ning would roll over and have an accident, which scared him so much that he broke out in a cold sweat.
However, Jiang Ning remained completely calm.
Calmly pursuing the ultimate thrill.
Sometimes Yuan Pei couldn't help but wonder if Jiang Ning had schizophrenia, that he had split into two people.
One is Jiangning.
One is Lin Chu.
But Jiang Ning doesn't seem to be really sick usually.
After learning that Jiang Ning was actually Lin Chu, Yuan Pei could no longer separate Lin Chu and Jiang Ning, even though Jiang Ning's personality on and off the field was completely different.
"You're so bad at this."
In the lounge, Jiang Ning, who had changed back into casual clothes, handed Yuan Pei a bottle of energy drink.
"cut."
Yuan Pei clicked his tongue in disbelief.
But if someone with his skill level could beat Lin Chu, that would be truly absurd.
After the two left the racetrack, Yuan Pei noticed that Jiang Ning finally had a relaxed smile on his face.
He looked preoccupied when he arrived.
"If you like to relieve stress by racing, you can call me anytime, and I'll be happy to oblige."
Jiang Ning turned to look at Yuan Pei and burst out laughing.
"Didn't you ever consider that I might dislike you?!"
"You, you, you..."
Yuan Pei blushed and glared at Jiang Ning.
However, Yuan Pei was right; she did release a lot of pent-up frustration through a thrilling race.
"I should thank you for being with me."
Jiang Ning grinned, revealing his teeth, and Yuan Pei felt as if he had been electrocuted.
"N-nothing...it's nothing..."
Not understanding why Yuan Pei suddenly started stuttering, Jiang Ning casually said, "It's so late, you must be hungry. Let me treat you to dinner."
"Let me treat!" Yuan Pei pointed to his nose with his thumb. "I may not be good at anything else, but I'm rich."
Jiang Ning was amused by Yuan Pei, and since Yuan Pei was willing to invite her, she didn't refuse.
The two drove to Harrow Department Store—a world-class department store.
Yuan Pei was clearly a regular customer, and he easily led Jiang Ning to the restaurant they wanted to eat at.
Because Jiang Ning told Yuan Pei that he was fine with eating anything, Yuan Pei chose a buffet restaurant.
"The seafood here is excellent, especially the Alaskan king crab legs, I highly recommend them..."
Jiang Ning followed Yuan Pei inside, listening to Yuan Pei chatter on and on. The smile on his face vanished the moment he saw a table of customers in the shop.
Yuan Pei followed Jiang Ning's gaze and saw Lu Junyan and Chu Qingxue having an elegant meal.
Sitting opposite the two were Chu Qingxue's parents.
Yuan Pei remained silent, showing no surprise.
Because he already knew from Chu Qingxue that Lu Junyan had invited Chu Qingxue and her parents to have a buffet dinner here tonight.
Yuan Pei brought Jiang Ning along on purpose.
He wanted Jiang Ning to give up on Lu Junyan.
Instead of still caring about a man who doesn't love you and wants a divorce, you should cherish the person in front of you.
Just as he thought of this, Yuan Pei was startled by the thought that popped into his head.
He scratched his head in slight annoyance and asked Jiang Ning, "Where do you want to sit?"
Jiang Ning pretended not to see Lu Junyan and Chu Qingxue's family, chose her favorite seat, and sat far away from them.
However, there were only a few tables occupied at this buffet restaurant because the prices were too high.
Therefore, as soon as Jiang Ning and Yuan Pei entered the store, they were seen by Chu Qingxue's mother.
"Isn't that Yuan Pei over there?"
After Fan Yali finished speaking, everyone else at the table noticed.
Lu Junyan's expression didn't change, and he continued eating his caviar.
Fan Yali and Chu Qingxue exchanged glances.
"I remember Yuan Pei was very close to you guys in high school."
“Mom, we have a great relationship now!” Chu Qingxue said.
"Oh, I see... So... do you know that lady over there too? Is she Yuan Pei's girlfriend? They seemed very close!"
Fan Yali's gossip-loving nature was burning brightly, while Chu Qingxue across from her hesitated to speak.
"Her name is Jiang Ning, and she is..."
Chu Qingxue didn't continue her introduction immediately, but instead secretly glanced at Lu Junyan beside her.
Lu Junyan calmly and elegantly finished eating the caviar, then asked Chu Qingxue:
Didn't you mention Jiangning to your aunt?
"No!"
Chu Qingxue shook her head.
"Looks like you all know each other!" Fan Yali said with curiosity. "Actually, you could invite them over to eat together. It's more lively with more people."
After she finished speaking, Chu Gang, who was standing next to her, nudged her with his elbow.
"The young couple is on a date. If Junyan didn't need to discuss that piece of land in Jiangbei with us, we wouldn't have dared to disturb his date with Qingxue, would we?"
"Oh right, right, look at me, really. Let Yuan Pei and his girlfriend enjoy their time together!"
As Fan Yali spoke, Chu Qingxue silently observed Lu Junyan's reaction.
Of course, she had mentioned Jiang Ning to Fan Yali.
Fan Yali also knew very well what kind of person Jiang Ning was.
