Chapter 139 We Don't Need to Get a Divorce
Being scolded by Fan Yali made Chu Qingxue feel even more aggrieved.
When Fan Yali had a long talk with her last time, she mentioned drugging Lu Junyan.
Chu Qingxue did not agree.
On one hand, she still had confidence in herself, believing that Lu Junyan would be unable to resist wanting to touch her.
When she and Lu Junyan were dating in high school, Lu Junyan never touched her.
He said they were still students and he wanted to cherish her.
And now, Lu Junyan still hasn't touched her.
She had invited him several times, both explicitly and implicitly, and even moved into Lu Junyan's house, but Lu Junyan still refused to share a room with her.
She couldn't just climb into Lu Junyan's bed and seduce him; that would make her seem too cheap.
As a result, she and Lu Junyan never even had a single physical intimacy.
Chu Qingxue was extremely anxious.
She dared not take the medication.
She understands Lu Junyan.
Lu Junyan is so shrewd that he will immediately realize if she is drugged. Even if the two of them do have sex, Lu Junyan will not only not marry her, but will also dump her.
Because Lu Junyan would never accept a woman who schemes against him.
"Qingxue, take this."
Fan Yali stuffed a bottle of medicine into Chu Qingxue's hand.
"I had a pharmacist I know specially prepare this for me. Just one pill is enough, and it takes effect slowly."
Chu Qingxue gripped the medicine bottle, her knuckles turning white.
"Mom doesn't understand what you're afraid of. Even if Lu Junyan finds out, so what? He loves you so much. Wouldn't it be a good thing if you two slept together?"
Hearing Fan Yali's lighthearted words, Chu Qingxue remained silent.
She didn't tell anyone, including Fan Yali.
The person Lu Junyan loved so much was A Chu.
"Qingxue, remember to seize opportunities in life. Right now, Jiang Ning's career is going well, and it's been revealed that she's Lu Junyan's wife. No matter who did this, since the Lu family has already acknowledged Jiang Ning's status, you have to fight for it to get this position, even if it means resorting to any means necessary..."
Listening to Fan Yali's advice, the tears in Chu Qingxue's eyes gradually dried.
It's 7 PM.
Scarlinda.
Jiang Ning only took out her phone to search for this store when she arrived at the store.
She noticed that the store was newly opened, quite stylish, and looked expensive.
She only found out after searching that the restaurant was a Michelin three-star restaurant, a popular spot among the wealthy, and even if you have money and influence, it is very difficult to make a reservation.
Jiang Ning stood at the shop entrance for a long time, hesitating whether to go in.
The person who invited her here was Lu Junyan.
However, it wasn't Lu Junyan who personally contacted her; it was Xiao Zhang who called her.
Xiao Zhang said that Lu Junyan had something very important to discuss with her.
Because it was arranged through Xiao Zhang, Jiang Ning initially thought it was official business.
But looking at the style of this store now, it seems like a private matter.
For some reason, Jiang Ning didn't want to eat alone with Lu Junyan in a place like this.
In the end, Jiang Ning was ten minutes late before going in, and Lu Junyan was already waiting for her in his seat.
Lu Junyan seemed to value this meal with her. He had changed into a different suit, not the one he wore at the company during the day. Although it was still black, the style, material, and details were more sophisticated and formal.
In contrast, Jiang Ning was the only woman in the entire restaurant who wasn't wearing a formal dress.
Jiang Ning walked over and reached out to pull out the chair.
Just then, Lu Junyan stood up and pulled out a chair for Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning sat down opposite Lu Junyan.
You look beautiful tonight.
Jiang Ning was stunned by Lu Junyan's opening remarks.
She's wearing the same clothes she wore during the day.
During the day, she and Lu Junyan had parted on bad terms, and she didn't understand why Lu Junyan suddenly wanted to invite her to dinner that evening, and why he did it in this way.
What do you want from me?
Jiang Ning asked directly.
"No rush, let's eat something first and chat while we eat."
Lu Junyan handed the menu to Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning hesitated when she saw the prices on the menu, but she figured that no matter how expensive it was, it wouldn't bankrupt Lu Junyan, so she didn't hold back and ordered a few of the most expensive dishes.
Lu Junyan smiled slightly.
"You've changed..."
Jiang Ning was taken aback.
"You've stopped trying to save you money?"
Lu Junyan shook his head.
"I don't need to save money."
Lu Junyan said this very calmly.
His calmness, in turn, highlighted his confidence and self-assurance.
"You've become even more attractive."
Jiang Ning was somewhat taken aback by Lu Junyan's sudden praise.
The dishes were served one by one, each one a feast for the eyes, nose, and palate, resembling works of art and tasting absolutely delicious.
Jiang Ning ate silently, his mind restless and uneasy.
Lu Junyan's attitude towards her tonight was really abnormal, and she didn't understand what he wanted to do.
While breaking off the king crab legs, she suddenly heard Lu Junyan say:
"We don't have to get a divorce."
Jiang Ning's hand was instantly cut by the crab shell and bled.
Lu Junyan immediately got up, went to Jiang Ning's side, took Jiang Ning's hand, and helped Jiang Ning squeeze out the blood.
"Fortunately, the wound isn't too deep."
Just as Jiang Ning was about to pull his hand away, Lu Junyan took his injured finger into his mouth.
Jiang Ning stared wide-eyed as Lu Junyan licked her fingers.
She hurriedly pulled her finger out, her cheeks burning.
"What...what are you doing..."
"Let me kill some germs for you."
Lu Junyan replied calmly.
Jiang Ning knew that saliva could kill germs and disinfect, but Lu Junyan had no reason to do that to her.
Her mind was in turmoil.
Lu Junyan was acting very strangely tonight, especially since he had just said they could avoid getting a divorce.
“I remember you said before that you wanted to divorce me no matter what… because I don’t love you.”
Lu Junyan spoke calmly as he returned to his seat.
Jiang Ning, on the contrary, was extremely nervous.
"So I've decided to love you now, so we don't need to get a divorce."
Lu Junyan said this casually.
Jiang Ning stared blankly at Lu Junyan, unable to process the meaning of his words for a moment.
Lu Junyan did not offer any further explanation, but instead ate his meal with elegance.
The dining table fell unusually quiet until Jiang Ning spoke:
"Is it... that your dad won't let you divorce me?"
Lu Junyan looked up, his eyes showing some surprise as he looked at Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning initially only made a guess, because Lu Group's stock price soared after it was revealed that she was Lu Junyan's wife.
In addition, Lu Junyan's unusual behavior tonight.
"So all that kindness you showed me just now was just an act..."
"no."
Lu Junyan shook his head.
"It's an exchange."
Jiang Ning felt a chill in his heart.
“You are valuable to the Lu family now. As long as you continue to be my wife, Lu Junyan, you can have my love.”
The voice was too calm, even sounding somewhat cold.
Lu Junyan stared at Jiang Ning, whose face was growing increasingly pale, and smiled wryly.
"My love... isn't this exactly what you've been dreaming of? Now that I'm finally giving it to you, aren't you happy?"
