Chapter 24 Then I’ll Stab You Too
It seemed as if she thought Ji Chiqian liked her.
Lu Ning held the phone and thought of her online crush from her previous life.
To be more precise, he was her secret crush, because she had never confessed her feelings to him, and he had never said that he liked her.
But the appearance of that person was like a faint fire in her dark and miserable life, which always kept her warm.
This feeling is just like Ji Chiqian's existence.
But she has always been unsure whether Ji Chiqian is the person from her previous life.
Ji Chiqian's slender fingers moved slightly: "Do I need a reason to help the weak when I see them? I usually help an old lady when I see her crossing the street."
Lu Ning smiled, but felt a little lost in her heart.
She pretended to be relaxed and said, "After I take the college entrance examination, I will officially leave the Lu family."
"Welcome to live next door to me!"
After Lu Ning hung up the phone, she took a shower in a good mood and practiced a set of real test questions before going to bed.
The last mock exam is coming soon.
This time, she also wanted to see how much she had improved and whether she had a chance to be admitted to Yunnan University!
As long as you can get into the top ten in the school, there should be hope.
The next day, Lu Ning went to school as usual.
She saw Qin Xiang bring a bowl of white porridge over and placed it next to her second brother Lu Nanfeng: "Second brother, I heard from the housekeeper that you have an upset stomach, so I made this porridge especially for you. You will feel better after eating it."
Qin Xiang also deliberately showed the burns on her hands.
After seeing this, Lu Nanfeng softened his heart and said, "You are already injured. You don't have to do these things in the future. Just let the servants do it."
"Brother, you've sacrificed so much for our family, and I should do all this."
Qin Xiang smiled sweetly, looking harmless.
Lu Nanfeng suddenly felt relieved and subconsciously looked at Lu Ning. Now she knew that her stomach was uncomfortable.
When Lu Ning saw Bai Zhou, a hint of sarcasm flashed in her eyes.
Sure enough, the white porridge arrived late!
Lu Ning had no appetite, so she just stood up and left without asking a single question from beginning to end.
Lu Nanfeng suddenly felt a little lonely.
Did Lu Ning really not ask a single question? Or did she really not want to care about her second brother anymore?
Qin Xiang quickly said sensibly, "Second brother, Sister Ningning is actually worried about you. She was just angry this time."
"I hope so."
Lu Nanfeng also hoped that Lu Ning was just sulking. He didn't think Lu Ning would really break off relations with her family because of these little things.
Without Lu Ning's care, he always felt uncomfortable.
Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Qin Xiang also went out to school.
The housekeeper chirped beside him, "Second Young Master, Miss Ning didn't even ask you a single question. That's really too much."
When Lu Nanfeng saw Bai Zhou, his expression improved a little.
Fortunately, Qin Xiang is so sensible.
He tasted the porridge, but instead of getting better, the stomachache got worse.
He frowned immediately, thinking of the medicinal food made by Lu Ning, which always relieved a lot of pain every time he ate it.
He subconsciously said, "Ask the kitchen to make a portion of the medicinal food that Lu Ning used to make."
The housekeeper was a little embarrassed: "Miss Ning cooks all the medicinal dishes herself."
"It's just a medicinal meal, is it that difficult?"
Lu Nanfeng felt a little uncomfortable due to the pain, and his tone was not very good.
The maid beside her replied, "Second Young Master, I heard that the eldest lady has to prepare the rice for the medicinal diet a day in advance. She has to get up very early the next day to prepare the ingredients, and everything has to be fresh. The cooking order and time are very particular, and even the slightest mistake will not work.
This is a recipe Miss Ning got from an old Chinese medicine practitioner. We haven't learned it yet, so Miss Ning has been preparing the medicinal porridge herself all these years!
After hearing this, Lu Nanfeng felt even more uncomfortable for some reason.
He raised his hands to cover his face. It turned out that Lu Ning had paid so much.
He really didn't know before and thought medicinal food was very simple.
Lu Nanfeng began to regret a little. He had really neglected Lu Ning too much before, and he didn't even know how much Lu Ning had paid in secret.
It's because he, as the brother, didn't do his job well enough.
Lu Ning was not angry, but had suffered too much injustice.
She was injured!
Lu Nanfeng looked at the housekeeper and said, "Bring me the gifts that Ning Ning gave to Qin Xiang to apologize last time."
The housekeeper was a little surprised: "Isn't that the eldest lady's apology to Miss Xiangxiang? If the second young master wants to come back, wouldn't it be unfair to Miss Xiangxiang? She already feels insecure living under someone else's roof in the Lu family. If the second young master continues to do this, how can Miss Xiangxiang still gain a foothold in the Lu family?
Second Young Master, you can't be soft-hearted just because of this bowl of medicinal food. Miss Xiangxiang even made porridge for you and even got injured."
Lu Nanfeng thought about it for a while, and then he felt a little soft-hearted when he remembered how Qin Xiang was injured just now.
He said, "Forget it, take back the gift I gave you first, and don't touch anything else."
At least, he has to make some changes first.
In the evening, after Lu Ning came back, she stayed in her room after dinner and didn't come out.
Not long after, someone knocked on the door and Lu Nanfeng's voice came: "Ningning, it's me."
Lu Ning walked over and opened the door, her brows and eyes indifferent: "What's the matter?"
"This is for you."
Lu Ning saw a box containing an emerald necklace that looked very familiar.
Isn’t this the apology gift she gave to Qin Xiang before?
What does this mean, second brother?
Lu Nanfeng's tone was filled with guilt. "Ningning, I know I wronged you before. I've taken the necklace back. I'll buy Xiangxiang a new necklace as compensation, but this one is different for you. I shouldn't let you give it away."
Lu Nanfeng regretted the whole day and thought he shouldn't have done that on the day of the banquet.
He didn't think it through enough.
Lu Ning was a little dazed.
She didn't expect that her second brother would actually "send" the necklace back!
How strange!
In her previous life, she never got these back until she died.
Lu Ning lowered her eyelids and said calmly, "No need. How can you give something away and then ask for it back?"
"Ningning, just accept it. Otherwise, I'll feel bad. Consider it my compensation to you, okay?"
What kind of compensation is this?
A slap in the face and a small sweet date?
Lu Ning saw Qin Xiang hiding in the corner from the corner of her eye. She deliberately said loudly: "Second brother, I have to criticize you. I gave this gift to Qin Xiang willingly. How could you take it away for no reason? Wouldn't you hurt Qin Xiang's heart by doing this? Right, sister Qin Xiang!"
When Lu Nanfeng turned his head and saw Qin Xiang, he suddenly felt a little guilty.
After all, he didn't ask Qin Xiang.
Qin Xiang walked out with a brave face: "Sister Ningning, those gifts have always been with me temporarily, and I am very happy to return them to their original owners. After all, how can I be qualified to accept such expensive gifts? I have always known my own limitations."
Qin Xiang's tone was particularly sincere.
But after Qin Xiang finished speaking, she immediately turned around and left, even reaching out to wipe away her tears, looking very sad.
Lu Nanfeng was a little panicked: "Xiangxiang?"
Lu Ning leaned against the door: "Second brother, you should go and comfort her."
Lu Nanfeng pursed his lips and said, "Lu Ning, I sincerely apologized to you just now, but why did you deliberately say those words to hurt Xiangxiang?
I am biased and make you feel wronged, but Xiangxiang did nothing wrong! Her father saved your life, don't forget! "
Lu Ning gave a cold smile.
Sure enough, nothing has changed.
She almost wavered just now.
