Chapter 147 Aroused in that kind of interest
Jiang Ning realized that Jiang Bin's initial target was probably not her.
But the moment their eyes met, Jiang Bin immediately turned around and ran straight towards her.
"You fucking dare mess with me? I'll stab you to death!"
Jiang Bin swung his knife at Jiang Ning like a madman.
Jiang Ning intended to snatch the fruit knife from Jiang Bin's hand, but before he could make a move, he was suddenly tackled to the ground.
"careful!"
The person who tackled her was Ning Junzhe.
Jiang Ning knew that Ning Junzhe meant well in protecting her, but Ning Junzhe exposing his back to Jiang Bin made things even more dangerous.
Jiang Bin's mental state seems unstable right now, and Jiang Ning isn't sure what he might do.
"I was hoping to make some extra money off you, but now my company has gone bankrupt, I'm broke, and I'm even owed money to loan sharks..."
Jiang Bin was talking to himself in a madman-like manner.
The fruit knife in his hand was originally bought to deal with loan sharks.
"You won't let me have a good life, huh? Then I'll take you down with me!"
Just as Jiang Bin was about to swing his knife, Ning Junzhe desperately shielded Jiang Ning behind him.
Not far away, Fu Xinyue watched this scene with wide eyes, her face, made up for as a bride, now deathly pale.
At this moment, the crowd was dispersed by several vehicles.
The headlights were blinding; they were all black Audi A8s. A group of people got out of them, all dressed in black suits and sunglasses.
They surrounded Jiang Bin, Jiang Ning, and Ning Junzhe.
Jiang Ning had some recollection of this group of people.
Jiang Bin had never seen anything like this before, and he was terrified. His legs went weak, and he dared not utter any harsh words.
Soon, a person stepped out from the group of men in black.
He was also wearing a black suit, but the quality of his suit was far superior to everyone else's.
Her looks and aura also set her apart from others.
His appearance caused whispers among the onlookers:
"Is this the president of the Lu Group?"
"It's Lu Junyan..."
"Holy crap, he's so handsome..."
Lu Junyan casually told the Lu family's bodyguards, "Take him away and hand him over to the police."
Immediately afterwards, he came to Jiang Ning, or more precisely, to Ning Junzhe.
Because Ning Junzhe protected Jiang Ning behind his back.
Although it was only for a moment, Lu Junyan's gaze first fell on Ning Junzhe.
Ning Junzhe looked extremely nervous, but the hands he was using to protect Jiang Ning were very reliable.
Lu Junyan lowered his eyelids.
"Get out of the way."
After speaking in a low voice, he saw Ning Junzhe frown, his face full of provocation, but he didn't move.
"Young Master Ning, your fiancée is still watching from the side!"
Lu Junyan said this with a smile, and Ning Junzhe knew that Lu Junyan was mocking him.
Ning Junzhe caught a glimpse of Fu Xinyue out of the corner of his eye and had no choice but to reluctantly step aside.
Jiang Ning looked up and met Lu Junyan's cold gaze when Lu Junyan suddenly picked her up in his arms.
"Put me down."
There were many bystanders around, so Jiang Ning spoke softly.
But she knew Lu Junyan must have heard it.
They just didn't do it.
Lu Junyan held her like that, and walked past the Lu family's bodyguards in full view of everyone, gradually fading out of people's sight.
Jiang Ning was shoved into the imperial blue Bentley by Lu Junyan.
Jiang Ning wanted to leave, but Lu Junyan fastened the passenger seatbelt and started the car.
Jiang Ning couldn't remember how long it had been since she had sat in Lu Junyan's passenger seat.
The two remained silent until the car entered the Cloud Top Jade Pavilion.
"Why did you bring me here?" Jiang Ning asked warily.
Lu Junyan smiled faintly and asked in return, "Isn't it 'return'?"
Jiang Ning felt a slight stirring in his heart at the word.
Back to...
Once, the Jade Pavilion on the Cloud Top was her and Lu Junyan's marital home.
She thought this was her love nest.
It's nothing more than shackles.
"This is your home."
Jiang Ning said.
Lu Junyan did not refute, and told Jiang Ning to get out of the car.
"I have something to tell you, come in!"
After a long time, Jiang Ning returned to her old home, where the furnishings and decorations were exactly the same as when she got married.
Jiang Ning raised her eyelids, her eyes showing surprise and confusion.
If she remembered correctly, Chu Qingxue had already transformed this house into a sea of pink.
"Chu Qingxue doesn't live here."
Lu Junyan suddenly blurted out this sentence.
Jiang Ning felt as if Lu Junyan could see right through her.
Judging from the layout and decoration of this house, Lu Junyan was probably not lying; Chu Qingxue no longer lives here.
Whether she lives here or not is none of my business.
Jiang Ning said softly.
"Would you like a drink to calm your nerves?"
Lu Junyan asked.
Jiang Ning shook his head.
"No, I'm not scared."
"Um."
Seeing that Jiang Ning's calm expression didn't seem like she was putting on a brave face, Lu Junyan poured himself a glass of wine.
Jiang Ning saw Lu Junyan pick up a piece of ice.
"It's so cold, why are you adding ice? Doesn't your stomach hurt?"
After saying that, Jiang Ning felt like slapping himself.
She talked too much again.
Lu Junyan put the ice down.
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Jiang Ning noticed that Lu Junyan's charming smile was always upturned, as if adding ice earlier was a deliberate test of her.
"So, what do you want to say by bringing me here?"
Lu Junyan took a sip of wine.
"Your uncle... that Jiang Bin, he embezzled public funds, not only racked up a mountain of gambling debts, but also borrowed a lot of money from loan sharks. Now that his crimes have been exposed, the banks have cut off his loans, his company has gone bankrupt, and he's facing jail time... I want to ask you what you plan to do?"
"I?"
Jiang Ning tilted his head.
"He brought this upon himself, so it's good that he's in there; he won't bother me anymore."
Lu Junyan was very surprised to hear these words.
"I had no idea you were so cold-blooded?"
Jiang Ning frowned and crossed his arms.
"I had no idea you were such a saint?"
Lu Junyan paused for a moment, then smiled without saying a word.
Jiang Ning did not think that this was cold-blooded.
This was entirely Jiang Bin's own doing.
Moreover, Jiang Bin is not her biological uncle and has no blood relation with her whatsoever, so how can she be called cold-blooded!
On the way back to Yunding Jade Pavilion, Jiang Ning was scrolling through his phone.
I saw Jiang Bin's news trending on social media.
Just after Jiang Bin bought trending searches to criticize her, online public opinion suddenly reversed, with all platforms revealing that Jiang Bin had embezzled public funds, owed gambling debts, and borrowed money from loan sharks.
Overnight, Jiang Bin's credit collapsed, his company went bankrupt, all his real estate and vehicles were mortgaged to banks, and he even faced detention.
Jiang Ning couldn't help but sigh at Jiang Bin's rollercoaster-like life.
Now that Lu Junyan had finished discussing what he wanted to say with her, she wanted to leave.
"Where are you going so late? Why don't you stay here tonight?"
After Lu Junyan finished speaking, he went to the dressing room to change into his pajamas and then handed a brand new set of pajamas to Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning noticed that the new pajamas were not pink, but black.
"What, you don't like it?"
"fine……"
Jiang Ning held the new pajamas without moving.
She didn't want to live in the Cloud Top Jade Pavilion.
She didn't want to live with Lu Junyan.
Knowing what Jiang Ning was concerned about, Lu Junyan's gaze turned slightly cold.
"Don't worry, I won't touch you."
After saying that, he went back to the master bedroom on his own.
Jiang Ning could tell that Lu Junyan was not happy.
But it's better to make Lu Junyan unhappy than to arouse his interest in that area.
After taking a shower and changing into new pajamas, Jiang Ning lay down on the bed.
She thought the bed was big enough when they bought it for their wedding, but it wasn't spacious enough for two people. Lu Junyan's body heat seemed to be warming her back.
