Chapter 640 Active Pursuit
"I--" Nie Jinxi was about to retort, but when she met Li Jinxing's cold gaze, she was so scared that she instantly forgot the words of rebuttal.
"Nie Yao and I are engaged purely out of love, and I'm also grateful to my eldest brother for his suggestion and arrangement!"
Li Jinxing said this, lowered his head to glance at Nie Yao, put his arm around Nie Yao's waist, and said in a deep voice, word by word: "She is not pregnant, and there has never been any saying that borrowing a child to get promoted, because from the beginning of our relationship, I was the one pursuing her!"
As soon as Li Jinxing finished speaking, the people watching below were in an uproar. No one could believe that such a big shot would actually lower his face to pursue a woman!
Even though Nie Yao was pretty and well-educated, there were many more wealthy daughters than her, and I'd never heard of Li Jinxing pursuing anyone...
"Nie Yao is so lucky! Master Li Jiu is actually pursuing her..."
"Exactly. I don't think she's that eye-catching. Besides, wasn't she just brought back by the Nie family? Why on earth did Master Li Jiu fall for her?"
"Who knows? Master Li Jiu is a hard-to-predict guy. Have you forgotten how he threw the daughter who had actively approached him off his yacht?"
Everyone started talking about it, and Yu Wanqing on the side breathed a sigh of relief, with a proud smile on her lips. This was her cousin!
In her opinion, it was indeed Master Li Jiu who had always been courting A Yao. Why did these people think that A Yao was courting Master Li Jiu?
Nie Xiao, who was standing not far from Nie Yao, also raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Jinxing in surprise, with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
He had only heard of Mr. Li Jiu before, but after seeing him today, he found that he was indeed a man who could be engaged to his sister. He was more outstanding than many rich young men!
Even Nie Jinxi, who was covering her face, forgot to cry when she heard Li Jinxing say this. She widened her eyes in disbelief, shook her head and muttered, "Impossible, this is impossible..."
Even she and Ji Minghuan were engaged because the Nie family and the Ji family had made an engagement. Ji Minghuan never took the initiative to pursue her. Or was it because she was worried that her identity as an illegitimate daughter would be exposed in the future, so she decided to sleep with Ji Minghuan first. How could a mere Nie Yao be pursued by Master Li Jiu?
But after Li Jinxing finished speaking, he lowered his head and smiled at Nie Yao. Even though the two of them didn't say anything, the tacit understanding in their eyes, as well as the happiness and sweetness surrounding them, told everyone around them that the feelings between them were real...
Nie Jinxi, who kept shaking her head, looked like a funny clown compared to Li Jinxing and Nie Yao!
The onlookers were already laughing softly. Nie Jinxi felt her temples throbbing, and when she saw the smile on Nie Yao's face, a surge of blood seemed to rush directly to her head.
She put down her hand that was covering her cheek and rushed directly to Nie Yao.
"What do you want to do?" Li Jinxing's face darkened and he asked coldly, blocking Nie Yao.
Nie Yao squeezed Li Jinxing's palm soothingly and gave him a look that said it was okay. Although Li Jinxing was still a little worried that Nie Jinxi would do something wrong, he finally let go of Nie Yao's hand and did not continue to stop Nie Jinxi.
"Nie Jinxi..." Nie Yao calmly looked at Nie Jinxi, who had been slapped twice in quick succession, and said in a calm tone, "I slapped you twice today for those words you used to attack me. I was warning you not to say anything crazy just to attack your own family!"
