“Professor He, that’s enough. You’ve already helped me a lot.” Shang Ning interrupted him. “I’m in Hengdian now. When Jin Yining has time, we’ll go over and invite Professor He to dinner.”
Shang Ning spoke very quickly, as if afraid that He Zhiyan would say something else.
She was deliberately avoiding He Zhiyan. It shouldn't be a problem to take advantage of Jin Yining, since Jin Yining wasn't around anyway.
The person on the other end quieted down, but didn't hang up.
Shang Ning lowered her eyes and bit her lip. There were some things she couldn't say, nor should she say them as Ning Kong.
He Zhiyan deserves a brighter future, not because she is repeatedly implicated.
"good."
After what seemed like an eternity, the other end of the call finally spoke, but then ended it immediately.
Shang Ning's lower lip ached from being bitten, not only because of He Zhiyan's helpless "okay" at the end, but also because her last friend was gone.
"When does Mrs. Jin plan to go back and invite Professor He to dinner?"
Her heart rate instantly jumped to 200 beats per minute. Shang Ning's disappointment and low spirits vanished in an instant, and her phone almost flew out of her hand.
Shang Ning finally managed to catch her phone and looked at the man who was approaching.
Jin Yining was still wearing her costume from the play, a black robe with bound sleeves and a belt embroidered with a golden dragon around her waist. But then Shang Ning looked down at her own waist and thought, "Oh well, Ning Kong's waist is slender too, so it's fair."
As Jin Yining approached, Shang Ning jumped off the bed and darted past him. "Teacher Qin looks really good in that outfit. He has a handsome face, is a refined gentleman, and is both reserved and cool. He is a man of great talent and bearing."
Qin Wei, who had just entered the door: "..."
Jin Yining, standing by the bed: "..."
"Teacher Qin, um, can we take a picture together?" Shang Ning clasped her hands together beside her face, looking at Qin Wei expectantly.
The ethereal, white-robed immortal Qin Wei: "..."
Jin Yining, the Demon Emperor at the dawn of creation: "..."
Qin Wei looked past Shang Ning and towards Jin Yining behind him. Shang Ning followed his gaze and said, "Teacher Jin isn't that petty, is he? Right?"
Jin Yining: "..."
Why did he bring Qin Wei along?
I forgot this woman is a fan of the couple!
"I don't mind," Jin Yining said with a forced smile.
Shang Ning felt that he must care a lot, really care about Teacher Qin taking photos with others. You could tell he looked like he was about to bite someone.
However, nothing was more important than taking a group photo, so Shang Ning turned to Qin Wei and asked, "Teacher Qin, is this alright?"
Qin Wei remained expressionless, merely glancing at Jin Yining without uttering a word.
Since she didn't say anything, Shang Ning took it as agreement and hurriedly grabbed her phone to open the camera. She wanted to take a selfie and include both of them in the shot, so she moved closer.
Jin Yining suddenly felt a toothache, so she grabbed the phone and said, "I'll take a picture for you."
Qin Wei's mood suddenly improved; to see Jin Yining like this was a once-in-a-millennium event.
He should cherish it.
Shang Ning remained relatively rational, standing beside Qin Wei with her hands behind her back, making no overstepping moves, her lips pursed, her eyes sparkling.
Click...
Jin Yining took a picture and tossed the phone to Shang Ning, who hurriedly caught it, inwardly cursing Jin Yining for being so stingy.
"What, aren't you going to take a picture with Teacher Jin?" Qin Wei said, as if watching a spectacle.
Shang Ning immediately changed her expression, glanced at Jin Yining, and didn't care.
"There's no need for that, after all, Mrs. Jin and I have..."
