Chapter 329 Brains Splattered, Lu Junyan's Face
Jiang Ning couldn't help but feel uneasy.
She didn't know who the people following and monitoring her were, or what their motives were.
But she couldn't let the other person see that she was nervous or flustered.
Walking among the crowd, Jiang Ning walked with a steady pace and a smile on his face, as if he were strolling through the streets.
Then, she went into a nearby shopping mall.
After taking the escalator to the third floor, Jiang Ning visited one women's clothing store after another.
Finally, she saw a store that was having a huge off-season sale and was packed with customers.
Jiang Ning entered the dressing room dressed in a black business suit with her hair up.
Jiang Ning emerged from the dressing room wearing a beige dress, a large sun hat, and sunglasses, with her long hair flowing freely. Even her makeup was completely different from before.
She mingled among the customers, found a lone girl, walked beside her, pretended to be her friend, and the two walked out of the store side by side.
Sure enough, the people who were monitoring and following her didn't recognize her.
Jiang Ning noticed that several men had given away their location and heard them say in a panic:
"Where is he? Where did he go? How are we going to explain this to President Lu if we lose him!"
Jiang Ning's eyes, hidden behind large sunglasses, widened slightly.
The only CEO she knew was Mr. Lu.
Frowning, she took out her phone, but hesitated for a moment and didn't make the call she wanted to make to Lu Junyan.
Night, Country B, shadows floating on the horizon.
Mr. Sun is hosting a cocktail party here.
There is a huge swimming pool on the rooftop of Sky Floating Shadow, where many guests are playing in the water after changing into their swimsuits.
Jiang Ning did not change into her swimsuit.
She wore a light blue tulle evening gown, her hair was slightly curled, and her every move was elegant and romantic. Even without a swimsuit, she was perfectly suited for the pool party.
Tonight's schedule was planned three months ago.
This is also why Jiang Ning didn't call Lu Junyan during the day.
She thought she would see Lu Junyan at the party.
Even if Lu Junyan loses the Lu Group, he is still the future successor of the Lu family.
Sitting on a chair by the pool, Jiang Ning listlessly sipped a glass of champagne.
Two men in suits stood beside her.
The man was tall and robust, seemingly forming a natural barrier around Jiangning.
As expected, Jiang Ning saw Lu Junyan after finishing a glass of champagne.
Lu Junyan did not change into a swimsuit, but instead wore his usual sophisticated black suit.
Upon seeing Jiang Ning, he immediately strode over.
But he was stopped by the man next to Jiang Ning when he was only two steps away from her.
A hint of displeasure appeared on Lu Junyan's handsome face.
"You hired bodyguards?"
He asked the question.
Jiang Ning dismissed the two bodyguards, shrugged, and smiled.
"There's nothing I can do. Who told someone to so openly plant their own spies around me! Lu Junyan..."
Jiang Ning suddenly stood up, her bright, star-like eyes fixed on Lu Junyan.
"Why are you sending people to monitor and follow me? What exactly do you want to do?"
Lu Junyan stared intently at the face so close to his.
That face is so beautiful.
Stunningly beautiful, otherworldly beautiful.
This face overlaps with the face in my memory of a girl with gray perm, wearing braces, and with freckles but delicate features.
He couldn't tell whether facial features were the same or similar.
But he had already made up his mind.
You haven't answered the question I asked you last time.
Jiang Ning certainly knew which question Lu Junyan was referring to.
She didn't understand why Lu Junyan suddenly remembered A Chu from the juvenile detention center.
But what good does it do to think about it?
"Now I'm asking you... why did you send people to follow and monitor me?"
Jiang Ning's choice of words was very sharp—
Tracking and monitoring.
Lu Junyan's delicate features looked as if they had been crushed.
He frowned, the tightness in his chest making him feel dizzy and anxious, as if his brain was deprived of oxygen.
"Why is it considered surveillance and tracking if I send someone to follow you?"
Lu Junyan's voice was slightly hoarse.
"Can't I be protecting you?"
Jiang Ning raised his eyes.
Why are you protecting me?
"..."
Lu Junyan took a deep breath.
"Someone died in the juvenile detention center."
"What?"
"It was the head of the information management department who was shot and killed. The assailant used a silencer, destroyed the surveillance cameras, and left no clues... The assailant's target was most likely the files stored in the system... like yours."
Jiang Ning was surprised.
"But there's no need to kill anyone to get electronic records..."
At this point, Jiang Ning suddenly understood.
The fact that someone would kill even when there was no need to shows that they are very confident in their skills and consider killing to be commonplace.
It's even a form of entertainment.
Jiang Ning felt a chill run down his spine.
The image of the fake Gu Jinci that appeared in her mind overlapped with the identity of the gangster assassin Joker.
"Are you afraid the Joker wants to kill me?"
"Now you finally believe that I want to protect you?"
Jiang Ning opened his mouth and gasped.
She lowered her head and felt Lu Junyan's gaze still fixed on her.
"I appreciate your kindness... but I already have my own bodyguards and can protect myself."
Jiang Ning raised his head again, and Lu Junyan saw at almost the same time that a red dot that was not there before had appeared between Jiang Ning's eyebrows.
"careful!"
He lunged and tumbled Jiang Ning into the swimming pool.
thump!
The sound of splashing water attracted the attention of many guests, who spontaneously gathered around the pool.
On the rooftop of the building across the street, Joker put away his sniper rifle.
"cut!"
He clicked his tongue in amazement.
If the plan goes smoothly, Jiang Ning should be able to get shot in the head right in front of Lu Junyan tonight.
Just imagining Jiang Ning's brains splattering all over Lu Junyan's face is enough to excite Joker.
In the rooftop pool of the Sky Floating Shadow, Jiang Ning was pulled up by Lu Junyan.
When they surfaced, Jiang Ning was held tightly by Lu Junyan, as if Lu Junyan were her human shield.
Jiang Ning felt his body trembling.
I don't know if it was from the shock or the cold.
She herself couldn't see the little red dot of the sniper rifle aimed at her.
However, given Lu Junyan's strong reaction, she could have guessed it.
However, she still didn't understand why the top assassins wanted to kill her.
Is she some important person?
After Lu Junyan carried Jiang Ning to the surface of the swimming pool, Lu's bodyguards also appeared.
"Mr. Lu, there's no one on the roof of the building across the street. They must have run away."
One of the Lu family's bodyguards said to Lu Junyan.
Lu Junyan breathed a slight sigh of relief, but did not let go of Jiang Ning.
Two wet bodies pressed tightly together, even in public. Jiang Ning's cheeks flushed slightly, and she couldn't help but struggle in Lu Junyan's arms.
"It's alright now, you can let go of me."
Lu Junyan did not comply.
