Chapter 298 I'm More Interested in You
Yunshangfang.
Jiang Ning booked a private room.
"Gu Jinci should be here soon, you can leave now."
Jiang Ning turned to Lu Junyan, who was standing behind her, and said.
Lu Junyan's expression was somewhat serious.
What if I say I don't want to leave?
"As my assistant, you have no right to say no to me."
Jiang Ning's words weren't harsh, but they were spoken with absolute certainty, leaving no room for negotiation.
Lu Junyan was slightly taken aback.
He gazed at Jiang Ning.
The cautiousness and subservience that had once been shown towards him were no longer visible on Jiang Ning's stunningly beautiful face.
Lu Junyan forced a bitter smile.
"Okay, then be careful."
Lu Junyan gently patted Jiang Ning's shoulder with his strong, powerful hand.
He couldn't really explain why he reminded Jiang Ning in that way.
Gu Jinci is an employee of CelestiMed, a genetics expert recruited specifically for the FZZL project.
Therefore, it can be said that Gu Jinci is a partner of the Lu Group and also a partner of Jiang Ning.
It's just having a meal together; Lu Junyan has no reason to worry.
Lu Junyan always believed that he was good at judging people.
However, Lu Junyan felt he couldn't see through Gu Jinci.
In Lu Junyan's memory, there were very few people he couldn't see through.
Either the other party is truly very cunning, or they are consciously wearing a mask to disguise themselves.
Jiang Ning was the only one left in the private room.
She waited a little while before Gu Jinci arrived.
"President Jiang..."
Gu Jinci sat down opposite Jiang Ning, a friendly smile blooming on her baby face.
"You and Lanlan broke up?"
Jiang Ning asked a direct and to-the-point question.
Seeing Jiang Ning's serious expression, Gu Jinci also suppressed his carefree smile.
"Yes, I broke up with her."
"Why?"
"because……"
Gu Jinci lowered her eyes and held the water glass with both hands.
"Because I've realized I've changed my mind... I'm more interested in you than Lanlan."
With a bang, Jiang Ning stood up and looked at Gu Jinci as if he had seen a ghost.
No wonder Gu Lanlan got so angry with her on the phone.
It turns out that Gu Jinci and Gu Lanlan broke up because of her.
“Gu Jinci, we are just business partners. I don’t understand why you would think this way…”
"Um……"
Gu Jinci kept her head down.
In Jiang Ning's view, Gu Jinci was not entirely without any lingering feelings for Gu Lanlan.
“I’m stating my position now… I’m Lanlan’s friend, and I want her to be happy… As for you, you’re nothing to me except a partner of the Lu family… Without the FZZL project, you and I would be complete strangers.”
Jiang Ning's words were righteous and forceful.
Gu Jinci lowered her head even further.
Jiang Ning was in a state of confusion and a bit angry.
Even now, she still can't understand how she got caught up in Gu Lanlan and Gu Jinci's relationship!
"I'll think about it carefully..."
"Okay, no matter what, I don't want Lanlan to get hurt."
After saying this, Jiang Ning turned and left the restaurant.
Inside the private room, Gu Jinci looked up, her youthful, baby-faced smile as sly as a fox.
He took out his phone and checked his schedule.
The FZZL system will be available next Tuesday, which is the day after tomorrow.
He made a phone call to country M.
"You can submit the documents I asked you to prepare to the bank now."
The imperial blue Bentley sped along.
Although Jiang Ning had already explained things to Gu Jinci, she was still upset.
She turned her head to look out the car window, where the waves of the sea rose and fell.
Jiang Ning's eyes widened.
"Lu Junyan, where are you going?"
This road is not the way back to the Lu Group.
"Let's go to the mall."
"shopping mall?"
Jiang Ning was puzzled.
Lu Junyan actually drove the car to the parking lot of a shopping mall.
After crossing the overpass, this is a newly developed area in City A. This shopping mall is also new; Jiang Ning has never been here before.
Why did you bring me here?
"Let's buy some new clothes, this outfit isn't convenient."
Hearing Lu Junyan say this, Jiang Ning looked down at his clothes.
She was still wearing the black dress she wore to the opening ceremony, but when she went to see Gu Jinci, she took off the yellow diamond necklace around her neck.
"Is there something inconvenient? Are you taking me to run a marathon?"
Jiang Ning's words amused Lu Junyan.
"I'm not going to run a marathon, but to do something else... Anyway, it's inconvenient to wear this kind of skirt."
Lu Junyan grabbed Jiang Ning's hand and pulled her into the mall.
Jiang Ning frowned and shook off Lu Junyan's hand as soon as she entered the mall.
"Assistant Lu, please be mindful of your position."
Seeing that Jiang Ning was angry, Lu Junyan reluctantly withdrew his hand.
Although Jiang Ning didn't understand what Lu Junyan wanted to do, she still cooperated and entered a women's clothing store with Lu Junyan.
Although it's called a women's clothing store, it's actually a trendy brand. Lu Junyan picked out two casual outfits for Jiang Ning.
"Give it a try!"
Jiang Ning crossed his arms and looked at Lu Junyan with a puzzled expression.
"You're going to give me a ride?"
Lu Junyan shook his head with a smile.
"My monthly salary is only 2,500 yuan, I can't afford this brand."
Jiang Ning: ...
Lu Junyan can afford jewelry worth tens of millions, but now he's suddenly complaining about being poor to her.
Jiang Ning picked up the two casual outfits that Lu Junyan had chosen and went into the fitting room.
In her memory, Lu Junyan always chose pink clothes for her in the past.
The color that Chu Qingxue likes.
However, this time, Lu Junyan chose two outfits: one was pure black, and the other was light blue with a few prints.
Both sets have a very good fit and are comfortable, but not too flashy or gaudy.
It's exactly the style she likes.
Both casual outfits suited Jiang Ning well, so she bought them both and wore the all-black one.
"Am I a good judge of character?"
As they walked out of the mall, Lu Junyan asked softly.
Jiang Ning glanced at Lu Junyan and said indifferently, "It's alright!"
The two got back into the car, and the car drove for a considerable distance again.
Jiang Ning did not ask Lu Junyan where he was going.
She wanted to see what Lu Junyan was really up to.
Finally, the car stopped.
The sun was setting, and the sky was filled with crimson clouds.
Lu Junyan led Jiang Ning to the edge of a cliff, below which lay the turbulent sea.
As the sun was about to sink below the horizon, the horizon appeared as if it were plated with a layer of colored gold.
"here it is……"
Jiang Ning opened her big eyes wide.
"A newly opened bungee jumping site."
Lu Junyan pointed to the staff and ropes on the edge of the cliff.
Why did you bring me bungee jumping?
When Jiang Ning asked this question, he only received a knowing smile from Lu Junyan.
Bathed in the glow of the sunset, this smile seemed warmer than usual, and her eyes appeared even brighter.
Have you ever bungee jumped before?
Lu Junyan asked Jiang Ning.
"No."
Jiang Ning shook his head.
"I don't have any either."
Lu Junyan remained calm, showing no fear on his face, and didn't seem like it was his first time bungee jumping.
He didn't ask Jiang Ning if he dared to jump or if he wanted to jump; he simply told the staff that the two of them were going to bungee jump together.
Inside the regal blue Bentley, Jiang Ning's phone rang.
The caller ID showed Bai Yichen.
