Chapter 396 Someone Else Wants to Pay a Visit
If it were him...
If Xiaoman is his child...
The more Lu Junyan speculated, the more he felt a tightness and pain in his chest.
His hand involuntarily fell on Jiang Ning's exposed collarbone, and he gently rubbed the beautiful collarbone along with the not-so-delicate pad of his thumb.
Jiang Ning, who was completely unguarded in front of him at this moment, was really tempting.
It's like a fragrant pastry.
Lu Junyan's affectionate eyes gradually turned fiery.
"Could you give me a chance... to take care of you and Xiaoman from now on?"
As Lu Junyan spoke, he grasped Jiang Ning's bathrobe collar with his hand.
...
Jiang Ning woke up feeling a little dazed.
She discovered that the woman was not only sleeping in the master bedroom bed, but had also taken off her bathrobe and changed into pajamas.
Jiang Ning was just tired last night, not drunk.
So she clearly remembered that when Lu Junyan carried her back to the bedroom, she was still wearing a bathrobe.
How come I woke up in my pajamas?
Moreover, this set of pajamas is new, made of the same silk material as Lu Junyan's, and the design style is also very similar.
However, hers was a light purple color.
Jiang Ning couldn't help but wonder if her pajamas and Lu Junyan's were a matching set.
Jiang Ning became fully awake when she realized she had changed into her pajamas.
She sat on the bed for a while, when the door to the master bedroom was opened from the outside.
The person who came into her view was naturally Lu Junyan.
Now, besides her, Lu Junyan is the only other person left in this house.
So...her clothes...
"I helped you change into your pajamas."
Lu Junyan answered Jiang Ning's question directly, as if he could read minds.
Seeing Jiang Ning's wary expression, Lu Junyan said with a wry smile:
"I just changed into my pajamas, nothing else... I'm not lying to you."
Jiang Ning stared intently at Lu Junyan's face.
Lu Junyan's charming smile features upturned lips.
The words spoken with that expression don't actually seem very believable.
However, Jiang Ning was no longer an innocent young girl, and she felt that her body did not have any unusual reactions.
She knew that Lu Junyan had not done anything wrong.
"Don't fall asleep in front of me in just a bathrobe next time. I can't always resist."
After Lu Junyan finished speaking, he reached out to her, seemingly wanting to pull her up from the bed.
"I've already made breakfast. Come and eat with me. We have some guests coming to visit later!"
"What?"
Jiang Ning was completely confused by Lu Junyan's words.
Is someone coming to visit soon?
who?
Jiang Ning couldn't help but frown.
The first people she thought of were Lin Wanrong and Sun Qiaoyu.
However, looking at Lu Junyan's appearance, she felt it didn't seem like it.
Lu Junyan made Chinese-style breakfast: congee and side dishes. It was very light, but tasted exceptionally good, much better than what she ate on W Island for the past two years.
Jiang Ning was very satisfied with the meal and intended to wash the dishes afterward, but Lu Junyan took over the task as well.
Sitting on the sofa watching Lu Junyan busy himself with everything, Jiang Ning couldn't help but smile.
If it weren't for the need to expose Lin Wanrong's crimes, it would seem like a good choice for her to live with Lu Junyan and hire him as a nanny.
Thinking of this, Jiang Ning gently tapped his head.
She felt that she must have been in a daze to have such a thought.
Lu Junyan is not a nanny.
She couldn't live with Lu Junyan forever.
Sooner or later, she will leave this place, take Xiaoman back to W Island, and live a peaceful life.
Jiang Ning was envisioning the future when suddenly the doorbell rang.
"Is this the guest Lu Junyan mentioned?"
Jiang Ning stood up and went to the entrance.
Lu Junyan did not tell her whether the other person was looking for her or for Lu Junyan.
Therefore, she couldn't immediately determine who the person was.
Before opening the door, she looked out through the peephole.
Upon seeing this, she froze on the spot.
After taking a few deep breaths, Jiang Ning opened the door.
Two people were standing outside the door—
Bai Yichen and Gu Lanlan.
The two people saw Jiang Ning open the door at the same time, and their eyes widened at the same time.
"Ah Ning!"
Gu Lanlan lunged forward and hugged Jiang Ning tightly.
Jiang Ning felt like Gu Lanlan was choking him so badly he could hardly breathe.
However, she did not push Gu Lanlan away.
She knew Gu Lanlan missed her.
She also misses Gu Lanlan.
While hugging Gu Lanlan, Jiang Ning noticed that Bai Yichen was looking at her, and her eyes reddened.
Jiang Ning was at a loss for words.
She felt she had let Gu Lanlan and Bai Yichen down.
They were her best friends, but she had to fake her death to keep it a secret from them.
Moreover, if she hadn't met Lu Junyan on W Island, and if the Lin family hadn't encountered such a major incident, she would most likely have continued living on W Island as Kelly.
As for the name "Jiangning," it belongs to a dead man.
Lu Junyan, who had finally finished his work in the kitchen, came out. When he saw Bai Yichen and Gu Lanlan, he acted as usual, without any surprise.
Jiang Ning now understood that the people Lu Junyan had mentioned visiting earlier were Bai Yichen and Gu Lanlan.
Moreover, the fact that the two of them were able to get here clearly indicates that they had contacted Lu Junyan beforehand.
In fact, Jiang Ning's guess was pretty accurate.
Initially, Gu Lanlan saw Jiang Ning by chance in a live stream of a popular online celebrity.
Since Jiang Ning only flashed by in profile at that time, appearing like an NPC among other passersby, Gu Lanlan didn't dare to recognize him.
However, she still told Bai Yichen about it.
Bai Yichen deliberately found the recording of that live stream and, after repeatedly confirming it, concluded that the NPC was Jiang Ning.
"But Ah Ning has long since passed away; she probably just looks like her!"
Gu Lanlan still couldn't believe it.
It's important to know that there are people in this world who have the same face but different fathers and mothers.
However, Bai Yichen did not think that the NPC was as simple as Jiang Ning.
For the past two years since Jiang Ning passed away, Lu Junyan has been going to the cemetery every day as if he were possessed.
However, recently, Bai Yichen noticed that Lu Junyan had stopped going to pay respects to Jiang Ning.
Not only did he not go to pay his respects, Lu Junyan was not even in Country A.
Bai Yichen learned that Lu Junyan had gone to W Island on a business trip.
But they never returned.
Later, he found out that Lu Junyan was in Country C.
The internet celebrity that Gu Lanlan likes happens to be from country C.
Bai Yichen didn't know what was going on either.
He felt as if he had some kind of intuition.
His intuition told him that Jiang Ning was not really dead.
Moreover, the reason Lu Junyan refused to return and remained in Country C was precisely because he already knew—
Jiang Ning is not dead; he is in Country C.
Because of this, he and Gu Lanlan didn't sleep well for several days. In the end, Bai Yichen directly called Lu Junyan's cell phone.
“Ah Ning, how could you lie to us! Do you know how heartbroken we are…”
Gu Lanlan hugged Jiang Ning, crying and complaining at the same time.
Standing in the living room, Lu Junyan waved to Bai Yichen at the door.
"Come in and talk!"
