Chapter 235 Can't I just treat it as Fourth Brother begging you?
It was the first time that Lu Ning saw Lu Bei's injured face.
I saw him once before in front of the police station, but at that time Lu Bei's face was still wrapped in gauze, so I couldn't see what was happening on his face.
This time she saw it clearly.
The scar on Lu Bei's cheek was very long and had already grown. The red flesh that had grown out was particularly hideous and conspicuous.
For someone like Lu Bei who works in the entertainment industry, this was a devastating blow.
And the wound on his face was probably very deep, so it wouldn't be easy to repair it.
The office is very quiet.
Lu Bei was in a very depressed state. He took out a velvet box, placed it on the table and opened it.
Lu Ning saw that it was a set of pink diamond jewelry, including a necklace, bracelet, and ring.
Lu Bei said hoarsely, "I know you gave the diamond ring I gave you to Qin Xiang as an apology gift, so I bought you another set as compensation."
Lu Ning glanced at the jewelry set and thought it was ridiculous.
She said coldly: "I don't need these things now."
"Lu Ning, Fourth Brother knows I was a little too harsh on you back then, but back then I was just holding a grudge against you for abandoning me. But now I know I was deceived by that woman Qin Xiang. If I had known the truth earlier, I wouldn't have treated you like this."
Lu Ning thought of her tragic end in her previous life.
To be honest, she didn't quite believe what her fourth brother said.
As Lu Bei spoke, he looked at Lu Ning's expression and his heart suddenly sank. It was exactly as his elder brother said.
Lu Ning sat on the chair and said, "Are you done talking? Take your things back. I have a lot of things to deal with later."
Her expression was cold and she didn't seem to be shaken at all.
Lu Bei couldn't help but speak up. "Lu Ning, you've seen how bad my face has become. Even if you drop the lawsuit, my future career will be ruined. Do you really have the heart to let me go to jail?"
"If that's what you're saying, then you should let Qin Xiang go to jail. Isn't it wrong that she's the culprit in the first place?"
Lu Bei was silent for a moment: "The video she showed me has been deleted, and I currently can't find any evidence to prove that she was the one who instigated me."
"Then the person you should be looking for is Qin Xiang. Why are you looking for me?"
Lu Ning's eyes were filled with sarcasm. "You think I should, considering your face is ruined, show mercy and not sue you, and then bear the blame for all this yourself, right?"
"That's not what Fourth Brother meant."
"I actually misunderstood you. Okay, go away."
Lu Ning didn't give Lu Bei a chance to speak, as she was still busy.
Lu Bei took a step forward in disbelief: "Lu Ning, I'm your biological brother. I'm the biggest victim in this matter!"
If it was really him who did it, then he would admit it.
Lu Bei was still unwilling to accept it: "But I was also deceived by Qin Xiang. Why can't you understand me, Lu Ning?"
Understand him?
Lu Ning's tone was tinged with sarcasm. "So? You don't think that if you beat Qin Xiang up and make her kneel down and apologize in public, I'll have to forgive you?"
"I didn't think so, but the culprit of this incident is Qin Xiang. You should hold her accountable."
Lu Bei felt that he was innocent.
Lu Ning laughed out loud: "Then you should ask Qin Xiang to atone for your sins, just like Sixth Brother took the blame for Qin Xiang before."
Lu Bei's face turned ugly in an instant. Qin Xiang was now protected by his elder brother, so it was impossible for him to go to jail for him.
He looked at Lu Ning's back and said disappointedly, "Lu Ning, no wonder Big Brother said you've become cold-hearted. I've finally seen through you."
He showed Lu Ning his injured face, but she didn't show any mercy.
"Lu Ning, you really seem like a different person. I even doubt whether the person in front of me is my sister!"
If Lu Bei hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that Lu Ning could be so ruthless.
Lu Ning's lips curled coldly: "Because the Lu Ning who used to be so obedient and submissive to you is dead."
"Lu Ning, even if I've wronged you in the past, we're still a family. I just don't understand why you have to make such a fuss?"
"You guys reacted so strongly because you couldn't take advantage of me. Since you said we're a family, you should be punished."
Lu Ning will no longer be morally blackmailed by these words.
She left the office after she finished speaking. Even though the bodyguards tried to stop her, they were pushed away by Lu Ning.
She is quite strong now.
Over the years, she has only learned one fact: being kind to the Lu family is being cruel to herself.
Lu Bei stood alone in the office, kicking the table in frustration. "Lu Ning, you forced me to do this. Don't blame me for not leaving you a way out!"
Outside lobby.
Lu Ning was practicing PK with the team members and didn't notice when Lu Bei left.
After she finished her training, she received a message from Ji Chiqian: [I'm at the school gate. Come out when you're done.]
Lu Ning suddenly became nervous.
She walked to the school gate with her bag and saw Ji Chiqian's car parked on the side of the road.
She couldn't help but touch the hair by her ear before walking over and getting in the car.
"Here."
Ji Chiqian handed her a bouquet of flowers, which really surprised Lu Ning. She immediately took the flowers and said, "Thank you."
"Why are you so surprised?"
Lu Ning glanced at the flowers in her arms and said, "It feels unreal. You don't look like someone who would give flowers."
“No one doesn’t know how to give gifts, unless he pretends not to know how.”
While driving, Ji Chiqian asked her, "Are Lu Bei's fans causing trouble for you?"
"Well, most likely they're trying to blackmail me, using all sorts of soft and hard tactics. But I won't compromise."
At least not now.
If Lu Bei can't do anything to Qin Xiang this time, then she may need to return to the Lu family and gradually expose Bai Lianhua's true face.
Lu Ning spoke up, "Don't they claim to be a family whose blood is thicker than water? I'm curious to see if this family can finally sacrifice for each other, or if they'll just turn into a dog-eat-dog situation when it comes to personal gain."
Ji Chiqian felt a little relieved when he saw that Lu Ning's mood was not affected at all.
Lu Ning suddenly said, "By the way, Ji Mo was also on the trending search today, did you know?"
Ji Chiqian paused: "Really?"
"Well, he seems to have clarified that his brother's engagement with the eldest daughter of the Mo family was just a rumor, and that his brother already has a girl he likes."
Ji Chiqian's throat moved slightly: "What do you think?"
"It's hard to say. Although Ji Mo has come out to clarify, it should be the real person who comes out to clarify. But who can say for sure about things between wealthy families? Maybe there is a temporary conflict between the Ji family and the Mo family, and maybe they will directly announce it in the future."
"impossible."
Ji Chiqian denied it outright.
Lu Ning turned her head and looked at him: "Are you so sure? You speak as if you are the prince of the Ji family."
Ji Chiqian looked at the car in front of him, and suddenly the words came to his lips: "Lu Ning, actually..."
Suddenly, the car next to him turned, and Ji Chiqian slammed on the brakes, almost hitting it.
Lu Ning was startled and opened the car window, yelling, "Do you know how to drive? Did you buy your driver's license?"
Ji Chiqian saw how energetic she was while scolding people, but in the end he couldn't say a word.
The car drove to a relatively open area.
Lu Ning saw several helicopters parked on the lawn.
Ji Chiqian parked the car and looked at her: "Let's go."
"Where are we going? By helicopter?"
Lu Ning turned her head and looked at the man beside her: "Who gave you this idea, Gu Zifeng?"
Ji Chiqian's expression then became unnatural: "You guessed it."
She said, why would this man arrange all this?
The two walked in front of the helicopter, and Lu Ning asked, "Did you rent or buy this helicopter?"
“I bought it.”
Ji Chiqian is usually busy with work, so he always uses a helicopter to save time.
Lu Ning nodded, probably thinking that it was bought by Gu Zifeng and he borrowed it to use.
She didn't ask any further.
But just as Lu Ning got on the helicopter, a woman's anxious voice came from behind her: "Aji, it's me..."
Ji Chiqian turned around and saw Mo Shiyi coming towards him, and his expression changed instantly.
