Chapter 397 Drunken Rampage
And so, Gu Lanlan walked in with Bai Yichen, wiping away her tears.
Lu Junyan's house is big enough to accommodate these people.
Before coming, Gu Lanlan had heard Bai Yichen's general situation regarding Jiang Ning, and already knew that Jiang Ning was now working with Lu Junyan to bring down Lin Wanrong, who had harmed the Lin family.
Gu Lanlan originally thought that the house Lu Junyan had prepared for Jiang Ning would be high-end and classy, but when she actually saw it, she almost thought she had entered a children's playground.
"Why...why is this art style?"
Gu Lanlan looked at Lu Junyan and Jiang Ning in surprise.
During the phone call, Lu Junyan only mentioned Jiang Ning's faked death and the things that needed to be done at this stage, without mentioning Xiao Man.
Receiving the questioning yet probing gazes of Gu Lanlan and Bai Yichen, Jiang Ning asked them to sit down on the sofa and began to recount in detail the events surrounding her faked death.
Lu Junyan didn't interrupt their chatter. He knew that for Jiang Ning, his only true friends were Bai Yichen and Gu Lanlan.
Compared to the quiet and reserved Bai Yichen, Gu Lanlan was always making a fuss.
"What?! You actually have a child?!"
"Holy crap! Shen Feiyang? Which Shen Feiyang?"
"These grapes are delicious... By the way, why does Lu Junyan act like a nanny?"
"What more evidence do we need! She's a beneficiary of the system, that Lin Wanrong. If she's not a murderer, I'll change my name!"
In the living room, Gu Lanlan was the noisiest one.
Jiang Ning was too close to Gu Lanlan and couldn't help but cover his ears from time to time.
She noticed that Bai Yichen was unusually silent.
It had been more than two years since they last met, and Bai Yichen hadn't changed much in appearance. Wearing a white shirt and light blue jeans, he still looked youthful, and his gentle, jade-like features would never be as aggressive as Lu Junyan's.
However, Jiang Ning felt that Bai Yichen had matured.
He is more mature and composed than before, and has a more masculine charm.
But it also created a sense of distance between us.
Jiang Ning thought that Bai Yichen was probably a little angry with her!
After all, she didn't reveal a single thing about faking her death to Bai Yichen.
"Even though you have your reasons, it's really not very friendly of you to keep it from us."
Gu Lanlan crossed her arms and pretended to be angry.
"I'm so sorry, Lanlan, it's all my fault."
Jiang Ning apologized repeatedly, then peeled a grape for Gu Lanlan and fed it to her.
At this moment, Lu Junyan, who had been silently serving tea, water, and washing fruit for Jiang Ning, Gu Lanlan, and Bai Yichen like a servant, spoke up:
"It's not Jiang Ning's fault, blame me!"
Gu Lanlan and Bai Yichen's gazes fell on Lu Junyan.
At this moment, Lu Junyan was wearing an apron, and he really did look a bit like a maid.
Even though Lu Junyan had the apron welded to his body, his innate nobility and imposing manner remained undiminished.
Bai Yichen and Gu Lanlan both felt that Lu Junyan looked much better now.
It's at least much better than the two years Jiang Ning faked his death.
"Jiang Ning chose to fake her death in order to escape me. She didn't dare to tell you the truth because she was afraid I would find out."
Lu Junyan said these words with a bitter smile on his lips.
Bai Yichen and Gu Lanlan fell silent.
Regardless of whether this was because of Lu Junyan, neither of them could blame Lu Junyan.
After all, the person who suffered the most after Jiang Ning faked his death was Lu Junyan himself.
"Alright, let's not talk about such heavy topics. Anyway, I'm not dead, I'm alive and well, which is something to celebrate..."
Jiang Ning smiled brightly.
"That's right, that's right, we should celebrate!"
Gu Lanlan raised the glass in her hand high.
Jiang Ning was overjoyed to be reunited with Gu Lanlan and Bai Yichen.
Anyway, Lin Wanrong already knows that she is still alive, and more and more people will find out in the future.
"How about we find a place to have BBQ?"
Jiang Ning's proposal was unanimously approved by everyone.
The task of finding a place naturally fell to Lu Junyan.
Lu Junyan quickly found a hotel with an outdoor lawn that could be used for barbecues.
Jiang Ning, Gu Lanlan, Bai Yichen, and Lu Junyan spent the whole day grilling meat, and the atmosphere was great.
At Gu Lanlan's request, Lu Junyan also bought beer, and the four of them drank two cases of beer.
Jiang Ning, Bai Yichen, and Lu Junyan didn't actually drink that much; even combined, they probably didn't drink as much as Gu Lanlan alone.
Gu Lanlan got drunk and started acting crazy, singing a completely off-key song.
However, Jiang Ning and Bai Yichen were used to Gu Lanlan like this, and they felt as if the three of them had returned to their high school days.
Lu Junyan grilled meat for Jiang Ning while watching Jiang Ning and Gu Lanlan go crazy together.
Gu Lanlan sings, Jiang Ning dances, and Bai Yichen provides the narration:
"Not bad, not bad. With your teamwork, you two could debut on a talent show in no time."
Jiang Ning was still relatively sober. Hearing Bai Yichen say this, she couldn't help but laugh and say, "What grudge do you have against talent shows? Why are you messing with them like this?"
"Who said that!"
Gu Lanlan patted her chest and exclaimed, "A Ning and I are the strongest combination! We wouldn't even look at other talent shows!"
Jiang Ning was amused by Gu Lanlan so much that he almost fell over.
Lu Junyan's deep eyes reflected Jiang Ning's bright and fiery smile.
He felt that the best thing he had done during this period was to send someone to pick up Bai Yichen and Gu Lanlan to visit Jiang Ning in Country C.
In his memory, this was the first time he had seen Jiang Ning laugh so unrestrainedly.
Jiang Ning needs to release the pressure and completely relax.
The role that allows Jiang Ning to relax is not him.
Lu Junyan couldn't help but sigh.
Jiang Ning feels more comfortable when she's with her friends.
As darkness fell, all four of them had eaten and drunk their fill.
After her drunken outburst, Gu Lanlan fell asleep on Jiang Ning's lap.
Although Jiang Ning had also drunk some alcohol and was feeling drowsy, he hadn't actually fallen asleep.
What should we do about Lu Junyan?
Jiangning looks up.
Their eyes met, and Lu Junyan felt a thud in his left chest.
Whether it was from drinking or from fatigue, Jiang Ning's eyes were as wet and bright as a deer's.
This was the first time Lu Junyan had seen Jiang Ning's pitying gaze.
And Jiang Ning was still smiling, as if she were seducing him.
Lu Junyan took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.
He had also been drinking and was afraid that he would get drunk and do something inappropriate to Jiang Ning.
"Everyone has had some drinks and is tired, so let's just stay at this hotel tonight. I've already booked the rooms."
And so, under Lu Junyan's arrangement, the four of them stayed at a hotel.
Each person has their own room, and the rooms are next to each other.
After returning to the hotel, Jiang Ning ordered room service, took some hangover medicine, and felt refreshed and calmer.
Just as she was about to go to sleep, someone suddenly knocked on her door.
She had assumed that the person knocking on her door was Lu Junyan.
When she went over and opened the door, she saw that the person standing in the doorway was Bai Yichen.
