This was the first time Lu Shaohan had taken the initiative to ask her out like this.
"Get a good rest tonight, don't worry about me."
After Su Ning finished speaking, she heard voices outside the door. She said goodnight to Mu An'an again and hung up the phone.
A moment later, footsteps and voices approached, and her door was opened from the outside. Su Ning looked up at the window, showing no interest in whoever came in.
"Sister." A gentle voice came from behind her. Su Ning heard footsteps getting closer and closer. "I've come to pick you up for dinner."
Su Ning still didn't answer, but Qiao Yimo wasn't angry. She came over and placed her hand on the back of Su Ning's chair.
"Sister, what are you looking at?" Qiao Yimo laughed, leaning down to whisper in Su Ning's ear, "Are you thinking about Brother Chen?"
Qiao Yimo couldn't hide her smugness; the thought of Su Ning in her hands filled her with joy.
"It's such a pity that Brother Chen isn't in Nancheng and won't be back anytime soon."
Su Ning knew, of course, that Su Xincheng had come to her yesterday and said those things—no, it was when she overheard Xie Shao in the restaurant corridor saying that someone had offered her to him—that she knew Qiao Yimo had made her move again.
“And then there’s Mu An’an.” Qiao Yimo said, her smile widening. “You know, she’s really spineless. Lu Shaohan makes one phone call and she obediently goes hiking with him, leaving you all behind.”
"What a jerk!"
"Aren't you the one who's being a jerk?" Su Ning sneered when she heard Qiao Yimo belittle Mu An'an.
"Su Ning!" Qiao Yimo called out, her eyes turning fierce as she wanted to slap her, but seeing the maid at the door, she had to suppress her anger.
"Aunt Zhang," Qiao Yimo straightened up and turned to the maid, "I'm taking my sister out to a banquet. I'll bring her back before nine o'clock."
No, after she takes her out, Su Ning might not be able to come back for a whole night, and she might never be able to return to Yanyugui.
"Okay, okay." Before Su Ning could speak, the maid at the door readily agreed. She came over and said to Su Ning, "Madam, you can go and have fun without worry. Miss Qiao will take good care of you."
Su Ning turned to look at the maid who was smiling and trying to please Qiao Yimo. She smiled and thought that Qiao Yimo would take her away from Gu's.
She was smarter than she thought, knowing how to win over the household servants while Gu Jingchen was away.
This maid already disliked her, and since she had taken Qiao Yimo's money, she planned to turn a blind eye. Even if something happened to her, she would say that Qiao Yimo asked to go out herself.
"Auntie, I'm not going," Su Ning said to the maid, giving her a chance.
The maid's face immediately darkened, and she said unhappily, "What is Madam doing at home all day long? Miss Qiao is not an outsider." As she spoke, she came over and pushed the wheelchair toward the door.
Qiao Yimo followed behind, and when they reached the elevator, she saw the phone in Su Ning's hand and snatched it away. "Sister, there are a lot of people at the banquet, let me keep your phone for you."
Without her phone, let's see how Su Ning finds someone to help her.
As for her broken watch, even if Mu An'an received the news, she wouldn't be able to get there in time.
