Chapter 426 Remarrying Junyan
As she expected, the conversation turned into an attempt to persuade her to accept the Lin Group.
Now, Lin Yueheng has returned to Country C, but Chu Yao remains here.
“You don’t have to acknowledge me as your mother, but the Lin family business was left to you by your grandfather. This is her compensation to you.”
Chu Yao spoke with heartfelt sincerity, but Jiang Ning could only sigh.
She felt that Chu Yao really didn't understand her.
If the Lin Group is truly compensation from Lin Jingcheng, then she really doesn't want to accept it.
It's more accurate to say that Lin Jingcheng valued her business acumen!
Jiang Ning shrugged with a wry smile, offering no response to Chu Yao.
After leaving Chu Yao's room, she was summoned to Lu Lifeng's study.
"Why are so many people trying to talk to me tonight...?"
Jiang Ning couldn't help but mutter to himself.
In Jiang Ning's memory, Lu Lifeng's study was often a place for discussing serious matters.
Upon entering the study, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
Lu Lifeng remained the same, always wearing a kind and gentle smile when facing Jiang Ning.
"Xiao Ning, please sit down!"
Jiang Ning sat down at Lu Lifeng's desk.
Their eyes met, and Lu Lifeng smiled as he asked Jiang Ning, "Can you guess what I want to talk to you about?"
Jiang Ning shook his head.
Lu Lifeng spoke slowly and deliberately, with earnestness:
"Grandpa... when you were determined to divorce Junyan, I didn't stop you, nor did I try to persuade you not to... later, when you did get divorced, I didn't try to persuade you to remarry Junyan..."
"Um……"
Jiang Ning nodded this time.
"But this time, you've come back from the dead... As your grandfather, I really want to talk to you about what you truly think of Junyan?"
Lu Lifeng's question left Jiang Ning speechless.
This is probably the question she fears hearing most right now.
Every single time, whenever Lu Junyan is involved, she instinctively wants to avoid it.
Because she felt that her mind was in turmoil.
It's a contradiction.
It also made me very hesitant.
This is the kind of reaction Jiang Ning least wants to face.
The study fell completely silent.
After a long pause, Jiang Ning slowly spoke, saying:
"Grandpa, can I not answer this question?"
Lu Lifeng wasn't angry; instead, he smiled.
"Alright, then you don't need to answer. Grandpa will tell you how much pain and suffering Junyan endured after you faked your death..."
What Lu Lifeng said was not much different from what Bai Yichen had told him before.
This shows that Bai Yichen did not lie to her.
Everyone knows what Lu Junyan looked like back then.
Everyone saw it with their own eyes.
Jiang Ning couldn't help but sigh.
"Xiao Ning, I'm telling you this not to make you pity him, nor to make you feel guilty for letting him down, and certainly not to force you to make amends to him..."
"..."
"I just want you to know that Junyan really can't live without you."
Time flies, and when Jiang Ning came out of Lu Lifeng's study, it was already completely dark outside.
The entire old house became unusually quiet.
Jiang Ning tiptoed into Xiaoman's room and saw Xiaoman lying in her crib, already asleep.
Lu Junyan was standing beside him, gently patting Xiaoman to lull him to sleep.
He subconsciously looked up and met Jiang Ning's gaze, and couldn't help but laugh when he saw Jiang Ning.
"What are you laughing at? Are you... laughing at me?"
Lu Junyan withdrew his hand and pointed to his own nose.
Jiang Ning nodded, suppressing a laugh.
"It's hard to imagine that the powerful CEO of the Lu Group is now acting like a stay-at-home dad."
"Is that so..."
Lu Junyan also smiled.
It was just a bitter smile.
With his long eyelashes drooping down, Lu Junyan seemed to be lost in thought.
Jiang Ning's gaze naturally fell on Lu Junyan's face.
Who can blame Lu Junyan for being so good-looking!
As she looked at him, she suddenly realized that Lu Junyan looked very lonely at that moment.
"Xiaoman is asleep, let's go for a walk!"
Unexpectedly, Jiang Ning took the initiative to invite him. Lu Junyan raised his eyes, his eyes filled with surprise.
"OK!"
Lu Junyan readily agreed and walked out of the house with Jiang Ning.
The courtyard outside the house now seems unsuitable as a place for a man and a woman to take a walk and have a heart-to-heart talk.
Because it has such an amusement park vibe.
However, as Jiang Ning walked through it, his mood inexplicably improved.
"Looking at the things that children play with makes me feel like a child again."
"yes!"
As Lu Junyan spoke, he climbed onto the slide and slid down in a flash.
When Jiang Ning saw that even Lu Junyan, who was wearing a suit, had gone down the slide, she couldn't resist and climbed up to play as well, having a great time.
As a result, she and Lu Junyan, two adults, took over the playground that was originally prepared for Xiaoman.
As Jiang Ning played, he unknowingly broke out in a sweat.
Why are you acting like a little kid?
Lu Junyan came up to her and took out a tissue to wipe the sweat from her forehead.
As the two grew closer, it was as if an invisible magnetic field surrounded them.
Lu Junyan lowered his eyes and stared at Jiang Ning's face, his gaze gradually shifting from deep affection to a burning flame.
Jiang Ning did not look at Lu Junyan.
She kept her head down, looking as if she was obediently letting Lu Junyan wipe her forehead.
Actually, she was afraid.
She was afraid to meet Lu Junyan's gaze.
Even without making eye contact with Lu Junyan, she could still clearly feel his gaze upon her.
It was a flame of desire that intensified with the deep-rooted affection.
The hand that was wiping the sweat from Jiang Ning's forehead began to slowly move downwards.
Her fingertips lightly and gently brushed across Jiang Ning's cheek.
It left a trail of itchy and burning marks on my already sensitive skin.
The tingling heat seemed to spread from his face all the way to his heart, making Jiang Ning's heart beat incredibly fast.
She should have pushed Lu Junyan away, but for some reason, she let Lu Junyan's fingertips rub against her cheek, all the way down, until they lifted her chin.
Jiang Ning was forced to look up and meet Lu Junyan's gaze.
Lu Junyan's eyes are really beautiful.
It looked like there was a shimmering galaxy inside.
Jiang Ning felt that there was no woman in the world who could resist Lu Junyan's affectionate gaze.
The wind isn't cold tonight.
It was actually a little stuffy.
Jiang Ning thought that this was probably the reason why she felt heat emanating from her entire body at this moment.
She didn't know what was wrong with her tonight.
Perhaps it was Lu Lifeng's conversation with her that made her waver again.
Perhaps it was the playground specially designed for Xiaoman that made her relax.
Faced with Lu Junyan gradually approaching her, Jiang Ning surprisingly did not make any move to resist.
Dazzling lips were so close, and warm breath seemed to brush against Jiang Ning's face, making her face grow hotter and hotter.
