Chapter 68: He Has His Own Wife

Zhong Sese was called back by Jiang Yining, and she said with a smile, “Yining, it seems that my cousin has deep feelings for you. I’ve known him for so long, but I’ve never seen him make an exception for any girl. Ah Zhi has always been a man of his word. When he gets angry, he doesn’t even care about his own mother. This shows how special you are to him.”
“You must be joking.”
Only Jiang Yining knew that she and Lu Zhi had no feelings for each other.
They were only in a relationship of benefits. Lu Zhi was willing to give her face because he felt sorry for Zhong Sese, his cousin, and not because he really valued her.
Zhong Sese smiled meaningfully and did not explain further.
After resting at home for the night, Zhong Sese went to a hotel.
She was the daughter of Lu Zhi’s aunt, Shen Bing. Back then, Shen Man disregarded the opposition of the entire family and insisted on marrying into the Lu family. In the end, she ended up on bad terms with her family.
The Shen family had almost ignored Shen Man for twenty to thirty years.
This was also the reason why the Lu family did not recognize Zhong Sese.
This time, she had come to discuss a collaboration with Lu Zhi without telling anyone in the Shen family.
Even if Lu Zhi didn’t chase her away, she couldn’t stay with the Lu family for too long.
She didn’t want her grandfather to find out about it and create a storm.
Since she had already met Ah Zhi’s wife and she was a good girl, she was at ease.
Jiang Yining was reluctant to see Zhong Sese leave.
She felt that she was quite easy to get along with since she had a carefree attitude.
But the prerequisite was… Zhong Sese shouldn’t do those weird things.
However, regardless of whether she was willing or not, she could not control Zhong Sesc’s decision.
In the end, she could only take it lightly.
When Ye Xiaoxi woke up, she realized that she was at the Lu family’s residence. She also heard from Jiang Yining that the person who had been harassing her had been sent to the police station.
She thought for a moment and understood that Yining had helped her.
She really wanted to thank Jiang Yining.
However, looking at the luxury of the Lu family’s residence, she understood that her little gesture would be nothing in her eyes.
After thanking her in person, she silently remembered this kindness in her heart.
She was just waiting for the opportunity to return the favor to her in the future.
The early summer rain was falling.
Jiang Yining got off class and received a call from Lu Zhi, telling her to attend a dinner party with him.
He had never brought a female companion to a banquet before.
However, it was different now. He had his own wife.
Only by introducing her to more people would she be able to clear her name and no one would dare to bully her in the future.
Jiang Yining agreed and looked at her white dress. She felt that she didn’t need to go home and change into another one. Anyway, from Lu Zhi’s tone, it was just a small banquet and the people attending didn’t need to dress up too much.
She got into the car and headed to the place Lu Zhi mentioned.
Jiang Yining arrived. Seeing that Lu Zhi wasn’t here yet, she took out her phone and started to study a code that she had thought of earlier.
She was so engrossed in her thoughts that she didn’t even notice the raindrops falling on her hair.
Until a black umbrella covered her head, blocking out the light.
Only then did she raise her eyes slightly to look forward.
She saw a big boy who was about 18 years old and wore a white suit standing less than ten centimeters away from her. His slender and fair hands held an umbrella, shielding her from most of the wind and rain.
“Miss, it’s cold outside. Do you want to go inside to avoid the rain?”
“No need, I’m waiting for someone.”
“Waiting for your boyfriend? Your boyfriend doesn’t know how to cherish women! How could he let such a beautiful lady like you stand outside waiting for him? If you were my girlfriend, I would definitely hold you in my hands and treat you well. I won’t let you get drenched in the rain.”
The big boy blinked his eyes, releasing his charm.
Such warm words and actions, if it were any other girl, she would have been moved by them.
Unfortunately, this was Jiang Yining.
“Did the rain get into your eyes?” Jiang Yining asked. “Why do you keep blinking?”
“Hmm?” The big boy didn’t react for a while. When he realized what she meant, the bright smile on his face paused. “The rain didn’t get into my eyes. Miss, do you want to go in with me?”
“No.”
Jiang Yining’s reaction was very cold.
The big boy was rejected again and again, but he was not angry. Instead, he smiled and said, “Then I’ll go in first. Remember to look for me when you come in later!”
Jiang Yining was speechless.
They didn’t know each other, so why would she look for him?
