Chapter 69 Gold has a price, jade is priceless



"He belongs to me now." When Wen Ning said this, the three people present were all stunned, and then they all looked at her with different expressions.

Ye Jingyun looked at Wen Ning, with a flash of surprise and confusion in her eyes, and even a hint of jealousy, jealous that she attended the banquet and had lunch with him. She had known him for so long, but they had never eaten together alone. And Wen Ning, who had only known each other for more than a month, could already have dinner together, which simply drove her crazy. What she didn't expect was that Wen Ning would say such a thing. She was stunned for a long time before slowly shifting her gaze from Wen Ning to Lu Shiyan beside her. Suddenly, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing an imperceptible sneer. Wen Ning, this woman, is really shameless! Doesn't she know that Lu Shiyan hates such ignorant and persistent people the most? She wanted to see how pitiful she would look and how she would cry when Lu Shiyan ridiculed her mercilessly.

After all, as far as she knew, Lu Shiyan hated women who clung to him, otherwise, she wouldn't have waited so long before taking any action against him.

Meanwhile, Lu Shiyan, on the other side, looked at Wen Ning with an ambiguous expression, a hint of penetrating mischief in his eyes. Wen Ning met his half-smile with a nervous, dodging glance, a touch of guilt in her heart. More than anything, she hoped he wouldn't ruin her plans. If he did, how would she face him? Wouldn't Ye Jingyun be laughing to death in the future? The thought of this made her feel guilty.

Lu Shiyan raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but find it funny when he saw her like this. Why didn't she think about the consequences when she just said it? Only after she finished speaking did she realize that she was thinking of him.

As for Sun Lan, standing in the middle, she watched all this with a look of resentment, standing beside her best friend. She couldn't understand why Wen Ning had suddenly become interested in her best friend's crush, and why she was so eager to compete with him. She had had enough. She always competed with her best friend, before, and now. She couldn't understand if she could just stop being such a nuisance. She just couldn't stand everything about her.

Seeing that Lu Shiyan didn't say anything, Ye Jingyun couldn't help but feel even happier. She chuckled, "I didn't expect you to be so shameless. How could Master Lu belong to you? Master Lu, don't you think so?" Ye Jingyun asked Lu Shiyan for confirmation. After she finished speaking, her gaze fell on Wen Ning again, her eyes full of contempt and disdain.

Lu Shiyan frowned slightly and did not answer her, but just looked at Wen Ning quietly.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Ye Jingyun continued, "That's true. After all, there are so many women like her who take the initiative to throw themselves into his arms. It doesn't matter if she's the only one."

Wen Ning was speechless when she heard this and rolled her eyes at her. Ye Jingyun was still so annoying, his mouth was always so unpleasant. But she knew she couldn't back down at this moment. So she straightened her chest and looked Ye Jingyun in the eye without fear.

She sneered, "I'm not like some people who like their ex-brother-in-law. Oh, no, maybe I liked him when he was still my future brother-in-law. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been so eager to pursue him as soon as my sister broke off the engagement. Some people are even more shameless than me. What should I be afraid of? Ye Jingyun, don't you agree?"

Ye Jingyun's expression changed, a flash of anger flashed in her eyes, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Who are you talking about!"

Wen Ning smiled slightly, his eyes filled with sarcasm, "Who am I talking about? You should know exactly who I'm talking about."

Looking at the two women arguing with each other, Lu Shiyan couldn't help but feel a little childish. When she bit someone, she was really fierce and clever.

Ye Jingyun was so angry that she was shaking all over. Her best friend Sun Lan hurriedly held her arm to prevent her from getting emotional and starting a fight. If she really did that, wouldn't it be a big taboo for Master Lu? After all, she was not related to Master Lu and could not interfere in his affairs.

"Let's go, don't waste time here." Seeing that she was no longer holding on and had the energy to argue with others, Lu Shiyan was too lazy to stay here. He simply took her hand and walked towards the door. However, he had only taken two steps when Ye Jingyun called him. He had no choice but to stop and look back at her.

"Mr. Lu, are you going back? Could you give me a ride?" Ye Jingyun looked at him humbly, biting his lower lip, and said pitifully. If it were someone else, seeing such a beauty, he probably wouldn't be able to help but agree to her.

Sun Lan stood aside, not daring to breathe. Although she felt that her best friend's request was somewhat inappropriate at this time, she had already said it, and she couldn't stop her. What's more, she also wanted to know what Mr. Lu would do.

Wen Ning looked at Lu Shiyan beside her with a playful expression. She was also curious about what he would do.

Lu Shiyan ignored her expression of watching the show and said coldly: "It's not on your way, Miss Ye, please handle it yourself." After saying this, he pulled Wen Ning away.

When Wen Ning left, he turned around triumphantly and gave her a victorious expression, which was quite provocative.

Seeing their intimate relationship and Wen Ning's boastful expression, Ye Jingyun was so angry that she trembled all over. She glared at Wen Ning, clenched her fists, and whispered viciously to her back, "Do you think you can win his heart? Dream on!"

When the two figures disappeared in the hall, she took her best friend's hand and turned to leave, her high heels making crisp sounds on the floor.

"Don't be angry, there is still a long way to go." Best friend Sun Lan comforted.

"Lanlan, I won't give up." Ye Jingyun pulled her best friend and said seriously.

"Well, I support you. As long as he is not married, you still have a chance." Sun Lan said seriously.

"Um."

Lu Shiyan and Wen Ning walked a long way out the door before he let go of her hand. He then turned to look at Wen Ning, "Are you satisfied?"

Wen Ning's hand was released, leaving her feeling empty and a little disappointed. His hand was so big, and she wanted to hold it for a while longer. Unfortunately, the time was too short. Couldn't he hold it a little longer? However, holding hands was also a form of progress.

Seeing her staring at her hands in a daze, Lu Shiyan said nothing. He knocked her head and said unhappily, "What are you looking at?"

Wen Ning raised his head in pain and glared at him, "Why don't you show any mercy to women?"

Lu Shiyan straightened his clothes expressionlessly, his movements elegant and noble. Then, he walked forward slowly with his long legs, saying lazily as he walked, "Why should I cherish you? I don't like jade. I like gold."

Wen Ning couldn't help but raise an eyebrow when she heard this. She quickly caught up with him and said coquettishly, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, how vulgar! Gold has a price, but jade is priceless. And what's more, this beautiful piece of jade like mine is priceless."

She raised her head slightly, with a confident smile on her delicate little face and her eyes as bright as stars, as if showing off her worth to him.

Lu Shiyan stopped and looked down at her, his lips slightly raised, a smile flashed in his eyes, and he teased: "Oh, then how much gold do you want to exchange for this beautiful jade?"

Wen Ning blinked and smiled mischievously, "It's a priceless treasure, not for sale." She raised an eyebrow at him smugly and added, "But if it were you, I'd only ask for 9.9."
