Chapter 131 Scheming



Chapter 131 Scheming

Ying Zhuxing's eyes widened, "Don't you think he's handsome?"

Wenci hummed and said reluctantly, "It's just so-so."

Ying Zhuxing: “…”

Lin Youning covered her lips and coughed, then deliberately said, "Not as handsome as my husband."

Duan Yingzhen looked up from her phone and said from a passerby's perspective, "I think they each have their own merits."

Lin Youning: “…”

Wen Ci: "..."

The two looked at each other, and Wen Ci smiled helplessly, "Let's not talk about men anymore, let's talk about something happy."

Ying Zhuxing raised his eyebrows, vaguely sensing something was wrong.

She stared at Wen Ci for a while and smiled, "Order first, I'm starving."

She picked up the menu and said, "Since it's under the name of Mr. Liang, I will definitely not be polite tonight."

Lin Youning raised her eyebrows, twitched the corners of her lips, and reminded her, "Teacher Ying, you didn't seem to be polite to me before."

Ying Zhuxing said confidently, "Who told you that you are a rich woman?"

Lin Youning could not refute it.

After ordering the food, the four of them chatted while waiting for it.

Ying Zhuxing was telling Duan Yingzhen some gossip about the crew, and Duan Yingzhen listened with great interest. She said that she was going to write a novel about the entertainment industry next year and was working hard to accumulate materials.

The two chatted enthusiastically. Lin Youning looked at Wen Ci, picked up his phone and chatted with her privately: [If you mind, I will pay for it later. ]

Wen Ci opened her phone and saw this sentence, she smiled helplessly: [I don’t mind. ]

She reminded her: [If I mind, then he should buy it.]

It would be best if Liang Jingyan became poor.

Of course Wen Ci knew that this was totally impossible.

No matter how much they ate, they could never make Liang Jingyan poor. The financial resources of his Liang family and Liang Jingyan were incomparable.

Lin Youning: [It’s best if you can think this way. ]

She thought: [Did anything else happen between you after that day? I just asked casually. If you don’t want to tell me, you don’t have to. I don’t mind.]

Based on Lin Youning's understanding of Wen Ci, the two must have had other contact after the last time at the bar, or something happened that she didn't know about.

If not for this, Liang Jingyan would not feel guilty when seeing Wen Ci, and Wen Ci would not express her dislike for him so obviously.

Wen Ci is essentially a person who doesn't show emotions on her face.

This is just the second time.

Wen Ci: "..."

She raised her head and glanced at Lin Youning, thinking of the shameless man she had just met in the lobby and his recent actions. He closed his eyes and replied: "It's hard to say, but it's not a good thing anyway."

Lin Youning: [Oh~]

Wenci: [The food is served.]

Lin Youning did not expose her poor ability to change the subject. She put down her phone and called the other two people: "Let's eat and talk."

The four of them ate and chatted, but they didn't talk about anything serious.

The meal took more than two hours. After the meal, the four of them went to the bar.

What was a bit of a coincidence was that when the four of them arrived at the door of the bar, they ran into Liang Jingyan again.

Wen Ci: "..."

Lin Youning: “…”

Ying Zhuxing and Duan Yingzhen lagged behind and sighed when they saw Liang Jingyan enter first, "We have a good relationship with this Mr. Liang."

Wen Ci blurted out subconsciously, "It's a bad fate."

Duan Yingzhen: “Ah?”

Ying Zhuxing raised his eyebrows, glanced at Wen Ci, and said in a drawling tone, "Don't bother, whatever Ci Ci says is what it is."

Lin Youning chuckled and nodded in agreement, "Yeah, let's go in too."

Ying Zhuxing: "Let's go."

When they entered, Yin Jin was there too. He warmly called Lin Youning "sister-in-law" and asked them whether they wanted to sit in the booths on the first floor or in the private rooms on the second floor.

Lin Youning: "We are on the first floor, and we want to listen to music."

There are band singers in the bar a few days a week. The songs they sing are very good and quite attractive.

Yin Jin: "Okay, I've reserved the booth with the best view for you."

Lin Youning was startled, but before she could ask further questions, Yin Jin told her, "Your husband told me that you guys are coming over for a drink tonight."

“…”

so it is.

Lin Youning nodded and smiled brightly, "Then I would like to thank President Yin first."

Yin Jin waved his hands and said, "You're too polite, sister-in-law."

After sitting down at the booth and ordering two glasses of wine, Lin Youning took out her cell phone and sent a message to Gu Huaichen, asking him if he was still working overtime.

Gu Huaichen: [Just finished work, and went to the bar? ]

Lin Youning: [Yes, I also ran into Mr. Liang. ]

Gu Huaichen: [I made an appointment with him. ]

Lin Youning: [Really?]

Gu Huaichen didn't quite understand what she meant by "really?", so he replied with a question mark.

Lin Youning: [We also ran into him when we were having dinner. I thought... Mr. Liang deliberately came to meet us by chance.]

Gu Huaichen: [It’s not impossible. ]

Lin Youning: [How do you say that?]

Gu Huaichen: [When I called him, I mentioned that you and your friends went to the bar that night.]

It was Gu Huaichen who mentioned it, and Liang Jingyan said he would see him in the evening.

Lin Youning: […Mr. Liang is very scheming.]

Gu Huaichen: [Do you need me to convey this to you? ]

Lin Youning: [No.]

Gu Huaichen: [Okay.]

Lin Youning didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and was amused by Gu Huaichen: [I won't talk to you anymore, I'm going to drink with Wen Ci and the others. ]

Gu Huaichen: [Well, I’ll tell you when I get there. Don’t get drunk before I get there.]

Lin Youning: […Don’t underestimate me.]

Without saying anything more to Gu Huaichen, Lin Youning put away her phone.

After drinking fruit wine with Duan Yingzhen and the other two for a while, Lin Youning prepared to go to the bathroom.

Wen Ci raised her head and said, "I'll go with you."

Lin Youning thought about it and said, "Okay."

It was not convenient for the bodyguard to follow her to the bathroom, so she felt a little more at ease with Wen Ci accompanying her.

Two people together are always better than one.

Lin Youning had just breathed a sigh of relief after entering the bathroom smoothly, but when she was washing her hands, she was blocked by Jian Cheng at the door.

Jian Cheng, wearing a mask and a hat, approached her.

Seeing his outfit, Lin Youning's eyes widened, a little surprised, "What do you want to do?"

Jian Cheng took a step forward. Lin Youning blocked Wen Ci behind him and took a step back. "Jian Cheng."

Lin Youning actually didn't think Jian Cheng would do anything, but it's better to be safe than sorry.

In a panic, she called his name and reminded him, "Don't do anything that you will regret."

Seeing her panic, Jian Cheng smiled contemptuously, "Lin Youning, you are really stupid. What do you think I want to do?"

He scoffed, "I just came to say hello."

Lin Youning was stunned. "What do you mean?"

"I'm leaving." Jian Cheng looked at her, "After I leave this time, I probably won't come back."

He looked at her steadily and paused for a moment. "We are childhood sweethearts after all, and we almost became an arranged marriage. I came here to say goodbye to you. You don't have to panic, right?"

Lin Youning pursed her lips and looked at him, "You must be on guard against others."

What's more, she really felt that Jian Cheng was not normal today.

Lin Youning didn't dare to gamble. She valued her life very much, not to mention that Wen Ci was still with her. She could get hurt, but she couldn't cause others to get hurt.

Thinking about it, Lin Youning began to regret why he just let the bodyguard wait outside.
