Chapter 284 Investigate Jiang Ning
In stark contrast to Chu Yao's tearful expression, Jiang Ning crossed his arms, shrugged, and smiled.
"Yes, you are never in control of your own destiny."
This is how it was when they sent her to the juvenile detention center, and it's the same now they're trying to persuade her to get a divorce.
Fortunately, she had wanted a divorce anyway, so taking this opportunity to gain access to the Lin family's connections wasn't a complete loss for her.
"Although you originally wanted to divorce Lu Junyan, your father and I both feel that we should give you some compensation for ruining your marriage. Take a look at these items..."
As Chu Yao spoke, she took out several folders and handed them to Jiang Ning.
"These projects are all good... The land in Lanzhou is suitable for a food court... Dongjing is planning to build a hospital... and there's also rare earth mining..."
Before Chu Yao could finish speaking, Jiang Ning slammed the folder shut.
"I'll take them all."
"What?"
Lin Yueheng and Chu Yao spoke in unison.
Jiang Ning smiled calmly, "Didn't you hear me? I said I want them all."
"this……"
Lin Yueheng and Chu Yao hesitated immediately.
These projects are all guaranteed to make a profit, but Jiang Ning can't be allowed to keep them all to himself. If Old Master Lin finds out, all the projects will probably be taken back.
"What? Were these projects originally intended for your good adopted daughter, and now you're just using one to appease me and put your conscience at ease?"
“Achu…”
Before Lin Yueheng could speak, Jiang Ning threw all the folders onto the dining table.
"Either give them all to me, or I don't want any of them."
After saying that, she stood up, turned around, and was about to leave.
"Achu!"
Lin Yueheng shouted.
"No matter what, your mother and I are your biological parents. Blood is thicker than water. Can't you treat us a little better?"
Jiang Ning turned his back to Lin Yueheng and Chu Yao and remained silent for a long time.
"You are my biological parents, blood is thicker than water..."
Jiang Ning turned his head and glared angrily at Lin Yueheng and Chu Yao.
"So what have you done for me from childhood to adulthood?"
Upon hearing Jiang Ning's words, Lin Yueheng and Chu Yao were immediately speechless.
Jiang Ning sighed helplessly and walked out of the restaurant.
Outside the hotel, a royal blue Bentley was parked across the street.
Xiao Zhang sat in the driver's seat, and Lu Junyan sat in the back seat.
"Mr. Lu, Miss Jiang is having dinner with Mr. and Mrs. Lin here."
As soon as Xiao Zhang finished speaking, Lu Junyan saw Jiang Ning walking out of the restaurant through the car window.
Lin Yueheng and Chu Yao chased after Jiang Ning, one after the other.
When Lu Junyan saw Lin Yueheng grab Jiang Ning's arm, he immediately frowned and opened the car door.
The Lin family contacted Jiang Ning simply to force her to divorce him, so that Lin Wanrong could vacate the position of Mrs. Lu.
That's why he introduced Attorney Yao to Jiang Ning and arranged for Judge Chen, whom he knew, to help.
Jiang Ning has already taken the Lin family's wishes to the point of filing for divorce, but the Lin family still seems unwilling to let her go.
Just when Lu Junyan thought Lin Yueheng was going to harm Jiang Ning, he saw Chu Yao shed tears.
Jiang Ning angrily shook off Lin Yueheng's hand, as if he were pointing his finger at Lin Yueheng and cursing him.
Lin Yueheng, a high-ranking official in Country C, bowed his head deeply in the face of Jiang Ning's accusations, looking as if he had nothing to say.
Lu Junyan stood in the middle of the road, not moving forward, but instead returned to his car.
"Mr. Lu, aren't you going to help Miss Jiang?" Xiao Zhang asked curiously.
Lu Junyan remained silent.
His intuition told him that Jiang Ning didn't need his help.
"Xiao Zhang..."
"Please give your instructions, Mr. Lu."
"Go investigate Jiang Ning... whether he has any connection with the Lin family."
Lu Junyan's order left Xiao Zhang completely bewildered.
What could the Lin family possibly have to do with Jiangning?
The reason Jiang Ning had dinner with the Lin family this time was because the Lin family wanted Jiang Ning to give up his position as Mrs. Lu to Lin Wanrong!
Ultimately, it's all for Lu Junyan.
Xiao Zhang himself didn't think there was anything worth investigating between Jiang Ning and the Lin family, but since Lu Junyan had given the order, he naturally complied.
Watching Jiang Ning across the street seemingly unleash a torrent of abuse on Lin Yueheng and Chu Yao before storming back to his car, Xiao Zhang asked Lu Junyan:
"Should we continue following Miss Jiang?"
Lu Junyan's deep eyes watched as Jiang Ning's white BMW 3 Series drove further and further away.
Jiang Ning was driving incredibly fast, and he was furious.
She had almost let go of some things, but fate just had to arrange for her to get entangled with the Lin family again.
Jiang Ning tried to distract himself while driving.
Suddenly, she saw Yuan Pei among a group of people on the roadside.
As darkness fell, the group appeared to be about to engage in street racing.
Jiang Ning slowly parked the car, his attention drawn to Yuan Pei.
"Is Yuan Pei going to have a competition here?"
As soon as she finished speaking, her phone rang; it was Yuan Pei calling.
"Hello, Yuan Pei?"
"Jiang Ning, you'd never guess where I am right now..."
Jiang Ning looked at Yuan Pei, who was on the phone in the crowd, through the windshield and replied, "You're in Country C."
"Wow! You guessed so accurately!"
Jiang Ning suppressed a laugh, only to hear Yuan Pei continue speaking on the phone:
"Then you'll never guess what I'm doing in Country C!"
"You're street racing."
"Do you have special abilities? How did you guess that?!"
The more shocked Yuan Pei was, the more Jiang Ning wanted to laugh.
Just as she was about to tell Yuan Pei that she was in Country C and watching him from inside the car, Yuan Pei asked again, unwilling to give up:
"Then you'll never guess who I'm going to compete against?"
This problem really stumped Jiang Ning.
With so many people around Yuan Pei, she couldn't tell who Yuan Pei's opponent was.
Seeing that Jiang Ning remained silent this time, Yuan Pei said with particular pride:
"She's your biggest enemy! Hehe... Let me check her out for you first."
Upon hearing Yuan Pei's words, Jiang Ning raised his eyes and understood.
At the same time, she spotted a strikingly beautiful and eye-catching person in the crowd—
Lin Wanrong.
Jiang Ning got off the bus.
He walked into the crowd of onlookers.
At this moment, Yuan Pei and Lin Wanrong were ready.
As the referee waved, both cars sped off in one go.
The streets in this area are sparsely populated and have few cars and people at this time of day, making it perfect for street racing. The winding roads test cornering skills, and there's also a straight-line sprint at the end.
After one round, Lin Wanrong won beautifully.
"cut!"
Yuan Pei clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction.
He's been practicing his driving skills diligently lately, hoping to one day beat Lin Wanrong!
Most of the onlookers around were Lin Wanrong's racing fans.
Lin Wanrong, as the racing goddess of Country C, participates in both official races and street races.
He's the type who likes to seek thrills and show off.
Yuan Pei climbed out of the car, looking dejected.
"You win. I'm a man of my word. Now, tell me, what do you want me to do?"
Before the competition, Yuan Pei declared that if he lost, Lin Wanrong could ask him to do anything.
Lin Wanrong approached Yuan Pei, wearing a bright red t-shirt paired with a black leather skirt and colorful lace-up top. Her long, golden waves reached her waist, and she didn't look like a rich heiress at all; instead, she had a rebellious aura.
She met Yuan Pei's gaze and smiled brightly.
"I want all of the Yuan family's shares that you hold."
