Chapter 28 This time she did not give in
Lu Ning's facial features are fair and quiet, and her eyes are particularly stubborn and a bit rebellious.
She replied firmly: "Even if I say it a hundred times, I don't agree."
Qin Xiang took the opportunity to act cute: "Brother, don't be angry. I have a tutor to help me with my studies, and my grades will improve soon. Sister Ningning also worked very hard on her exercises, which is why she has improved so much. I will study hard with her, I promise!"
Lu Nanfeng also explained: "Brother, I will find a way to solve their grades. You don't have to worry so much."
Lu Dong was very angry: "You two stop making excuses for Lu Ning. Don't I know her temper? Just because Qin Xiang came to the Lu family, she felt uncomfortable and kept finding fault!
"Lu Ning, let me tell you, no matter how angry you get, or even if you run away from home, it won't change the fact that Qin Xiang is in our house. Even if you leave, she won't leave, understand?"
Lu Ning lowered her eyebrows and her facial expressions could not be seen clearly.
Lu Nanfeng looked at her with her head down, feeling a little distressed: "Ningning, that's not what big brother meant!"
Oh, Lu Ning raised her head, her eyes dull, her voice a bit cold: "It doesn't matter."
She turned and left the box, unable to stay any longer.
Lu Nanfeng's face changed, and he wanted to chase Lu Ning, but he heard Lu Dong's angry voice behind him: "Stop, second brother, you are too soft-hearted, that's why you let that girl control you."
Lu Nanfeng was somewhat helpless: "Brother, it's not like that."
Lu Ning has changed.
In the past, he would have thought that Lu Ning was just throwing a tantrum.
But when he thought of Lu Ning's expression just now, he felt worried. He had never seen Lu Ning with such an expression before.
Qin Xiang tried to smooth things over and said, "Brother, stop arguing. It's all my fault for not doing well on the exam. I wish I were as smart as Sister Ningning. It's my fault for being so dumb."
Lu Dong's tone softened a bit. "It's not your fault. It was Lao Liu's team that delayed you. Lao Si told me what happened during this period. Qin Xiang, stop defending Lu Ning. Now that you've come to our Lu family, we will definitely not be partial to her just because she's our biological daughter."
Qin Xiang burst into laughter and said, "Thank you, big brother. I will work hard in the future."
In this family, the most difficult person to please is Lu Dong.
In addition, Lu Dong is not at home all year round, so Qin Xiang has always been afraid of Lu Dong.
Thanks to Lu Ning for giving me such a good opportunity to perform today.
Lu Nanfeng felt that his elder brother had misunderstood Lu Ning.
He explained, "Brother, Ningning also participated in the competition. If she hadn't turned the tide, we wouldn't have won the resurrection match at all."
"Humph, I would have forgotten if you hadn't mentioned it. She refused to join Lao Liu's team on the surface, trying to force Lao Liu to beg her, but when Qin Xiang went, she felt uncomfortable and secretly practiced in private, just waiting to show off in front of you."
"Brother, that's not the case."
Lu Nanfeng suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness.
He looked at his elder brother's attitude towards Lu Ning, and then he realized that he seemed to have treated Lu Ning in the same way before.
Is that why Lu Ning was heartbroken and distanced herself from them?
Lu Nanfeng was so choked up that he couldn't utter a word. It turned out that he had gone too far.
It turns out that the person who was wrong was not Lu Ning, but perhaps himself.
Lu Nanfeng saw that Qin Xiang and his elder brother were chatting happily, and they seemed to have forgotten that Lu Ning was not there.
Lu Nanfeng felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. It was obvious that he had arranged today to celebrate Lu Ning's good grades.
He took advantage of his elder brother's inattention and quietly turned around and left the box.
Lu Nanfeng called Lu Ning, but no one answered.
He immediately sent a message: [Ningning, where are you? ]
Lu Ning glanced at the message she received, then stood up and walked out of the bathroom stall.
She went to the sink outside and looked at herself in the mirror with slightly red eyes.
I have made the decision countless times and will not be sad because of the Lu family anymore.
But when she heard what her elder brother said just now, she still felt a little pain.
Lu Ning washed her face with cold water. There was only one month left, and she wouldn't have to endure it anymore.
After she left the restroom, she planned to take the elevator out of the restaurant.
"Why are you here?"
Lu Ning looked up and saw Ji Chiqian. She lowered her head in a panic and said, "Come and eat."
Her voice was a little hoarse.
Ji Chiqian approached: "Crying?"
Her voice sounded wrong, like she had been crying.
Lu Ning subconsciously denied: "No."
At this time, the elevator door opened and Lu Nanfeng walked out.
When she saw it, she threw herself into Ji Chiqian's arms and grabbed his clothes tightly.
Lu Ning wanted to curl up in Ji Chiqian's arms, not wanting her second brother to find out she was here.
Ji Chiqian was stunned in his arms, looking down at the girl in his arms. She was pressed so tightly against him that he could almost smell the sweet fragrance on her body.
His throat moved slightly, and he subconsciously tried to increase the distance between them.
As soon as he moved, she threw her arms around his neck.
To outsiders, it looked like the two were a couple in love.
Ji Chiqian pursed his lips, a little surprised by her behavior.
The usually calm man didn't know what to do at this moment.
Lu Ning secretly stuck her head out and saw her second brother returning to the box, then she breathed a sigh of relief.
She realized the intimate posture of the two, and only then did she realize that Ji Chiqian was very tall.
She almost had to tiptoe and he leaned over to cooperate so that she could put her arms around his neck.
Lu Ning let go of her hand with an embarrassed look on her face: "Well, my second brother just came out of the elevator, and I didn't want him to see me, so I borrowed you to block him."
Ji Chiqian narrowed his eyes and roughly guessed why she was here and why she was in a low mood.
His voice was full of sarcasm: "Can any man stop it?"
Lu Ning looked at him in surprise: "That shouldn't be the case."
Because the person standing next to her happened to be Ji Chiqian, she stayed in his arms without hesitation.
If it were another man, she would never have thought of this situation.
I don't think so.
After Ji Chiqian got her answer, he felt inexplicably better: "Come to dinner with them?"
"Well, they said it was to celebrate my good grades."
Lu Ning's tone was a bit sarcastic.
She secretly observed him and remembered that she had just seen him appear with a beautiful woman. Why was he alone now?
Ji Chiqian said calmly, "Ranked tenth this time, not bad."
Lu Ning felt a little proud in her heart: "It's okay, I have a chance to enter Yunda University again now."
He previously said his ranking wasn't high enough.
Ji Chiqian saw the little arrogance on her face and smiled: "Have you eaten?"
"Not yet. I don't want to be here."
"Because of the people in the box?"
Lu Ning nodded: "If you have something to do, go ahead and do it. I'll go back to the apartment first."
She doesn't want to go home today either.
"If they want to leave, they should leave."
Lu Ning didn't quite understand what he meant.
Is he going to drive away my second brother and the others?
Not likely!
