Chapter 42: Adventure
Qi Jinzhou pulled the quilt over Jiang Ning's body.
Jiang Ning's mind cleared up a bit at this time. Seeing Qi Jinzhou was about to leave, she hooked her arm around his sleeve and said, "Brother-in-law, won't you stay with me?"
Jiang Ning is a fox, and Qi Jinzhou feels like he is falling into her trap.
"A man and a woman alone in the same room, don't you understand?"
Qi Jinzhou pushed away her hand that was holding him.
Jiang Ning was not actually drunk.
From the moment she lay down on Qi Jinzhou's bed, she became conscious.
"Brother-in-law, I'm just afraid of the dark. I don't have any other requests. Are you overthinking it?"
Qi Jinzhou stared at her helplessly, "No. Actually, you drank beer on purpose just now, didn't you?"
A hint of guilt flashed in Jiang Ning's eyes.
She drank on purpose just now. When she was drunk, she had the opportunity to get close to Qi Jinzhou.
She admitted that she had always harbored evil intentions towards Qi Jinzhou.
Even after he rejected her last time, she still didn't give up.
"Ningning, don't think I don't know what you're planning."
Qi Jinzhou frowned and took her hand off his waist.
Jiang Ning's heart gradually grew colder.
He rejected her again.
She felt dissatisfied.
"You can leave if you want, but why did you kiss me before? I have evidence."
She turned the phone screen towards him, and it showed the scene of Qi Jinzhou trapping Jiang Ning after their last performance at school and after dinner.
The two of them were very close, their breaths barely touching.
Qi Jinzhou did not regret what he had done before. He calmly explained, "I was drunk that day and mistook you for Yunyun."
Jiang Ning's face froze. "You're talking nonsense. You were clearly not drunk at the time. You knew that person was me."
Qi Jinzhou didn't want to argue with her any further. Whether he admitted his mistake or not, it didn't matter. It was all just a momentary impulse.
He knew very well that there was no possibility between him and Jiang Ning, but it was now obvious that Jiang Ning had other ideas about him.
Qi Jinzhou took his coat and walked outside.
"Jiang Ning, I hope you can see clearly the relationship between us."
Jiang Ning's eyes gradually turned cold, revealing contempt.
…
The next day's schedule became very busy as they were going out to visit and study.
After the visit and study, a group of them came back and organized everyone to play volleyball on the beach.
Jiang Ning was pulled in by Zhou Qi and put in the same group as him. Li Qi was also in their group.
She kept looking for opportunities to chat with Zhou Qi, but because Jiang Ning was present, Li Qi couldn't get a word in.
Zhang Qi was responsible for taking the lead in organization and became the referee.
From the start, the scores on both sides were close.
Jiang Ning is shorter and not very skilled.
Soon, she lost a ball.
Zhou Qi comforted her and patted her shoulder, "It's okay, the important thing is to participate."
It is said that the losing team has to perform for everyone, and Jiang Ning hates performances the most.
In the second game, with the determination to win, Jiang Ning devoted himself to the game.
At this moment, a ball was passed to Li Qi, who was dribbling the ball. Jiang Ning went to receive it, but Li Qi deliberately pushed her, causing Jiang Ning to fall and the ball missed.
Zhou Qi rushed over to help her, but it was still too late.
It was a best-of-three game, and they quickly lost this game. By the third game, although they won, they only won this one game.
The people on the opposite side were clamoring for their group to perform.
Li Qi privately complained to Jiang Ning, "I just passed the ball to you, why didn't you catch it? You caused us to lose two games."
Jiang Ning found her complaint baffling. "Then why did you push me just now? If you hadn't pushed me, would I have fallen?"
Li Qi refused to admit that she had pushed Jiang Ning. "Just get it straight. How could I possibly have pushed you? You fell down on your own. Don't put the blame on me, okay?"
Jiang Ning's face turned red with anger, "Why are you so unreasonable?"
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Zhou Qi hurried over to mediate. He advised Li Qi to say less, "Ningning is younger than us and one grade lower than us. She is still our junior. Let's give in to her."
Li Qi frowned slightly. "You said she's a grade lower than us? She's a freshman?"
Zhou Qi nodded.
Li Qi immediately thought of another thing. This project is only open to sophomores and above. Jiang Ning must have gotten in through the back door.
After Zhou Qi's persuasion, Li Qi didn't say anything else.
It was only during the final performance that everyone sang a song together.
After the team disbanded, Jiang Ning was a little angry with Zhou Qi, "Do you think I was lying just now? She really pushed me, otherwise how could I have fallen flat on my face?"
Zhou Qi thought that it was not easy to offend both sides. Li Qi was a student in their tutor group, so they were considered to be from the same school.
Jiang Ning is his junior and friend.
Zhou Qi had no choice but to coax her privately, "I know, how about I treat you to ice cream? It's just that I really couldn't help it just now. She's from the same school as me, and if our relationship becomes strained, how am I going to deal with her in the future?"
Jiang Ning: "I'd better not play with you anymore. I hope you don't offend your fellow disciples or classmates because of me."
After saying that, Jiang Ning turned around and walked away. Because she was walking so fast, she didn't see the person walking towards her clearly and bumped into him/her.
Qi Jinzhou and his assistant walked towards the hotel entrance.
Jiang Ning raised his hand and rubbed his forehead. He didn't say hello, but just glanced at Qi Jinzhou secretly.
When Zhou Qi saw that it was him, he took the initiative to greet him.
When Qi Jinzhou saw the two of them hanging out together again, a look of displeasure appeared on his brows.
He called out to Jiang Ning, "You bumped into me and didn't even apologize? Is that how your sister taught you?"
Jiang Ning stepped back, expressionless, and bowed deeply in the direction of Qi Jinzhou to apologize, "I'm sorry, brother-in-law, I shouldn't have walked so fast just now. I bumped into you. It's my fault."
Because her tone was helpless and her movements were too exaggerated, Zhou Qi and the assistants behind Qi Jinzhou laughed.
Qi Jinzhou frowned and stopped talking about what he was about to say.
Zhou Qi followed Jiang Ning into the elevator. He took Jiang Ning's hand and said, "I found a very beautiful place. Do you want to go with me to see it?"
Jiang Ning blinked, "What beautiful place?"
Zhou Qi pulled her to the stairs and looked out from the balcony. "See? There's a small island behind this hotel. We can take a small boat there and get to the island. There's a lighthouse there. It would be beautiful if we could stand on the lighthouse and see the scenery. Do you want to go?"
Jiang Ning hesitated, "Is it safe? What if there are bad guys on the island?"
Zhou Qi patted his chest confidently, "With me here, what are you afraid of? Besides, some friends have already been there yesterday, and they said the scenery at the lighthouse is great."
