Chapter 217: Swallowing Bitterness and Pain! (2/2)



His love was not just expressed verbally.

And there are concrete actions.

Jiang Ning smiled, her eyes crinkling. It seemed that Yun Haotian, her nephew, didn't know his uncle that well.

[Just kidding.] Jiang Ning quickly replied: [I don't have any preferences about where I sit.]

After replying, Jiang Ning used her phone to return to the Alipay page and transfer Chen Jingnian's money back. Just as she entered her password, the Alipay page displayed a message: "[Sorry, you cannot transfer money to users on your blacklist.]"

Jiang Ning: ......

At this moment, Shen Jingnian sent a WeChat message: "[Ningning, I don't have the habit of accepting money from women.]"

In Alipay, if you block someone's account, they will be unable to transfer money to you.

Shen Jingnian blocked Jiang Ning because he guessed that Jiang Ning would definitely transfer the money back.

[This is a voluntary gift from me; you don't need to feel guilty about it.]

Jiang Ning thought for a moment, then replied: 【Then I'll bring you a gift when I get back.】

Jiang Ning was chatting with Shen Jingnian on her phone after she sat down, completely unaware of the person sitting next to her.

The man was wearing a gray hoodie, with handsome features and gold-rimmed glasses. He looked gentle and refined, like a professor who had just stepped out of a university campus.

This is Zhuang Jingmo.

actually.

When Jiang Ning first sat down, Zhuang Jingmo, like Jiang Ning, did not notice her.

Until.

A pleasant scent wafted to my nose.

The faint fragrance, reminiscent of bamboo groves after rain, mixed with the crisp scent of red plum blossoms, instantly reminded Zhuang Jingmo of the joyful time he spent at his grandmother's house during his childhood.

Unfortunately, those times can never be returned to.

So, Zhuang Jingmo turned his head and saw Jiang Ning's profile.

She wore a simple bun, revealing her full forehead and slender swan neck. She wore a pink dress that made her skin look very fair. She was holding a phone and seemed to be chatting with someone, her eyes full of smiles.

Zhuang Jingmo was taken aback, not expecting that the pampered eldest daughter of the Shi family would be sitting in the ordinary cabin.

Or is it...?

Did she know she was on this plane too?

Therefore, I specifically chose this location.

After all, Jiang Ning and Zhou Yingzhi had a good relationship, and Zhou Yingzhi was eager for him to be with Jiang Ning.

He had just told Zhou Yingzhi last night about his trip to Hong Kong.

Now, Jiang Ning appeared beside him.

This is just too much of a coincidence.

What made Zhuang Jingmo even more suspicious was that he had already noticed Jiang Ning, but Jiang Ning didn't seem to have noticed him yet.

It's really hard not to think that Jiang Ning did it on purpose.

She was deliberately trying to get his attention.

Zhuang Jingmo, being in a high position and having dated before, naturally knew that when women started to scheme, men were simply no match for them. If it were ten years ago, he might have been attracted to a girl like Jiang Ning.

But now, ten years have passed.

He was no longer the boy who longed for love.

Zhuang Jingmo smiled slightly, picked up the newspaper, and continued reading. He didn't take the initiative to greet Jiang Ning, because he wanted to see when Jiang Ning would finally break the silence.

Based on his understanding of women, he shouldn't have to wait long.

At most ten minutes later, Jiang Ning would pretend to be very surprised and say to him, "What a coincidence, Mr. Zhuang, you are also on this plane today."

Soon, the flight attendant came to remind everyone to turn on airplane mode.

Jiang Ning put away her phone and the small table, then glanced out the window.

From Zhuang Jingmo's perspective, he felt that Jiang Ning was looking at him.

Thinking of this, Zhuang Jingmo suddenly became a little nervous.

He had a premonition.

Jiang Ning was about to pretend that she recognized him.

Just as Zhuang Jingmo was preparing to talk to Jiang Ning, Jiang Ning turned her gaze away, bent down to take out a U-shaped pillow and an eye mask from her bag, and leaned back in her chair to fall asleep.

Zhuang Jingmo frowned imperceptibly.

Why is this not quite what I expected?

Jiang Ning didn't follow his instructions.

Could it be that she wanted to make the act more convincing, and then greet him when she got off the plane or while eating her airplane meal?

right.

That should be the case.

Jiang Ning was young and thought things were too simple. She had no idea that he had already guessed her thoughts and that everything was under his control.

Thinking of this, Zhuang Jingmo's lips curled up slightly.

What Zhuang Jingmo didn't know was that Jiang Ning didn't recognize him at all; to Jiang Ning, the person sitting next to her was just a random passerby.

After all, when Jiang Ning last met Zhuang Jingmo, the other party was wearing a mask, and only his eyes could be seen. This time, Zhuang Jingmo not only took off his mask, but also wore glasses.

Moreover, Jiang Ning never cares about unimportant people.

so.

Until the plane arrived at Hong Kong Airport, Jiang Ning did not greet Zhuang Jingmo, nor did she even glance at him. After all, she slept the entire time and did not even eat the airplane meal.

Zhuang Jingmo pushed up his glasses, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes, as he waited for Jiang Ning to strike up a conversation with him the whole way.

This little girl has a lot of patience.

If it were anyone else, they probably would have already been eager to greet me.

It seems that young girls these days are much more capable than I imagined.

If he hadn't already won people's hearts, he would have been attracted to Jiang Ning today. And Jiang Ning, apart from being a divorcee, does indeed have the charm to make people fascinated. Unfortunately, he is already past the age of rushing headlong into love.

Zhuang Jingmo strode off the plane and walked ahead of Jiang Ning without taking the initiative to greet her. He wanted to see what Jiang Ning would do if he didn't greet her.

The Si family has their own VIP channel at the airport.

Almost as soon as Jiang Ning got off the plane, she was led to the VIP channel by staff. "Miss Shi, this way please. Madam Si and the First and Second Wives are already waiting for you over there."

"OK."

Jiang Ning followed in the footsteps of the staff.

Zhuang Jingmo walked for a while but Jiang Ning didn't greet him. He couldn't help but feel a little strange, so he stopped and turned around to look behind him.

But as soon as he turned around, he found that Jiang Ning was no longer behind him.

Zhuang Jingmo couldn't help but chuckle, "Interesting, very interesting."
