Chapter 183 Bai Lianhua mocks Master Ji as a pauper
Lu Nanfeng didn't expect Lu Ning to actually sue.
Lu Ning just found it funny: "If you do something wrong, you should pay the price. I didn't force Qin Xiang to steal my things."
Lu Nanfeng smiled bitterly: "Even if you want to sue, you can't even hire a good lawyer now, so why humiliate yourself?"
Ji Chiqian said coldly: "We'll know when the trial begins."
The lawyer he hired personally is sure to win.
After Ji Chiqian finished speaking, he directly took Lu Ning's hand and said, "I'm hungry. It seems like you still owe me a meal!"
Lu Ning didn't refute and followed him away.
Lu Nanfeng didn't catch up, so she asked Ji Chiqian: "When did I owe you?"
"Have you forgotten about the car accident last time?"
Lu Ning remembered that time when Ji Chiqian almost got into trouble because of her, she had said that she would treat him to a meal after he recovered.
She said: "I remember now, this is what happened."
"You still have a conscience."
Lu Ning thought for a moment and asked, "What do you want to eat?"
Ji Chiqian locked his eyes with her: "You can agree to eat anything?"
She felt that there was something different in his gaze.
She thought it was her own illusion, this man always hid it very well.
Lu Ning spread out her hands: "I'm relatively poor now, so I can't afford something too expensive."
"So what do you like to eat?"
"I heard there's a new private restaurant near the school. I heard it's pretty good. Want to go?"
Ji Chiqian nodded dignifiedly: "I want a private room."
Yes, that’s a lot of requirements.
However, this man always likes quietness and has mysophobia.
Lu Ning called ahead to reserve a seat in the private room, and then the two of them walked over, side by side, with an arm's length between them.
Lu Ning walked for a while with the navigation and found that the location was wrong.
She stood there, examining the map.
Ji Chiqian walked up to her and asked, "Are you lost, little turtle?"
"This navigation is inaccurate."
"You don't know how to read it, give it to me."
The man took the phone from her hand, looked around, and then the navigation on the phone turned off: "Follow me."
"If you don't look at the navigation, can you remember it?"
"It's not that hard to remember the way. Lost lambs, just follow me."
Lu Ning poked him in the back: "Don't give me random nicknames."
What a slow-moving little turtle, a lost lamb.
Hiss, the man took a breath, his eyes sullen: "Don't touch a man's waist casually."
"Why, are you ticklish?"
Lu Ning poked her again, and this time Ji Chiqian held her hand: "If you touch me again, you will be held responsible."
She met his deep gaze and then lowered her head: "I didn't touch it, I just poked it."
Her voice became smaller and smaller.
Ji Chiqian let go of her hand and continued walking forward, but he was not so calm.
Lu Ning followed him and walked around the corner to the outside of the private restaurant.
The two walked in and arrived at the box.
The proprietress came in and took the menu. "The restaurant is a bit busy today, so please forgive us for any inadequacies. Let me see what we can order."
After Ji Chiqian sat down, he didn't take the menu and looked directly at Lu Ning.
The proprietress handed the menu to Lu Ning again: "Your boyfriend is really considerate. It's the woman who has to order the dishes. I'm so busy."
Before Lu Ning could explain after taking the menu, the proprietress left.
She glanced at him and asked, "What do you want to eat?"
"Eat as you like."
Lu Ning knew some of his hobbies and ordered a few dishes, including some special dishes.
The box returned to silence.
When Lu Ning lowered her head to look at her phone, she always felt that Ji Chiqian was looking at her, and this gaze made her unable to ignore it.
She looked up and met his gaze.
She didn't say anything, and he didn't say anything either. He turned the table to heat the dishes for her.
A man's fingers have distinct joints, and he looks good no matter what he does.
"What are you looking at?"
Ji Chiqian placed the bowl and chopsticks in front of her. Lu Ning turned her head and looked at him: "You are so handsome, why don't you let people see you?"
The man narrowed his eyes and said, "You're cursing me in a roundabout way, right?"
How can you praise a man for his good looks?
"No, you're quite handsome."
"Is this your type?"
When Lu Ning heard this, she lost her grip on the chopsticks and they fell to the ground. She bent down in a panic to pick them up.
What did he notice?
Or is it intentional?
Lu Ning picked up the chopsticks, but he took them away and put his chopsticks in front of her.
The man changed into a new pair and ironed them again.
Lu Ning didn't answer him, and he didn't ask any further questions, as if he had never said it before.
Ji Chiqian glanced at her and she lowered her head to play with her phone.
He admitted that he had done it on purpose.
She was too close to Timo.
When Ji Chiqian was about to speak, the waiter came in and served the dishes.
When Lu Ning saw the food, she immediately felt hungry and picked up her chopsticks to eat seriously.
Ji Chiqian saw her eating and didn't say anything, but he found that the dishes served were ordered according to his preferences.
The two of them ate quietly.
Lu Ning stopped only after she had eaten and drunk her fill, and her mood improved a lot.
Only then did she notice that Ji Chiqian had finished eating at some point, and he was looking at her with a calm and composed gaze.
Lu Ning felt a little embarrassed: "What are you looking at me for?"
She took the tissue and wiped the corner of her mouth without getting anything on it.
Ji Chiqian put his hands on the table: "Are you feeling better?"
"Yeah, much better."
"I can answer the question you asked Jimo."
Lu Ning's hand paused, and she looked at Ji Chiqian.
Her eyes were filled with anticipation, yet also a bit of trepidation.
Ji Chiqian took a look at her expression and said, "His family has always disapproved of him playing games, especially his mother. If someone had to make him quit the game, only his mother would do it."
He never thought of letting Timo withdraw from the competition!
Lu Ning was stunned. Is it Ji Mo's mother?
Isn't that the wealthy and noble lady, Madam Ji?
That probably isn't the case. She must have guessed wrong.
"Disappointed?"
Ji Chiqian caught the obvious disappointment on Lu Ning's face.
Lu Ning shook her head: "No, it's getting late, let's go."
Ji Chiqian stood up and looked at her: "Do you really want to win the game?"
"Even if I wanted to win again, I wouldn't resort to these tactics."
Ji Chiqian also thought so, but it seemed a bit strange why Lu Ning asked this question.
He didn't ask any further questions.
The two of them came to the bar, and Ji Chiqian directly scanned the code to pay.
Lu Ning was a step slower: "Didn't we agree that I would treat you?"
"Well, it's your treat, and I'll pay the bill."
Ji Chiqian didn't think there was anything wrong with this.
The lady boss smiled and said, "Your boyfriend should have paid the bill, that's all he should have done."
The handsome man and beautiful woman are a perfect match.
Ji Chiqian lowered his head to pay the bill, seemingly without any intention of explaining.
Lu Ning couldn't help but look at the proprietress. Just as she was about to speak, someone called her name: "Lu Ning, is it really you?"
Qin Xiang walked in and glanced at the two of them.
She said with pride, "You two are going on a date at a cheap restaurant like this. Isn't that a bit too shabby? My boyfriend Gu Yan said he wanted to take me to the Liyuan Opera House. That's a place only people of status can go to eat. Membership alone requires a top-up of 10 million."
Lu Ning was stunned. Liyuan?
It seems a little familiar.
She turned her head and glanced at Ji Chiqian.
