Chapter 85: The Person You Should Send Off Isn’t Me, It’s Miss Jiang
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Wu Lili was so frightened that her legs went weak, but she didn’t dare to look back. She just ran forward.
However, the footsteps behind her were getting closer.
Soon, a hand grabbed her arm.
She turned around.
“You wretch, how dare you barge into the event and cause trouble? I won’t spare you.” A resounding slap landed on her face, and Secretary Li scolded angrily.
With such an important tea party, she dared to lead the disruption. Not punishing her would be unfair to Shen Ning!
Originally, Secretary Li had something else to attend to, and she wouldn’t have had the chance to deal with her. If she had left earlier, she wouldn’t have been slapped. But she had greedily indulged in the desserts, even having three bowls, which gave Secretary Li the time to punish her.
“Ah!” Wu Lili screamed in pain, her vision turning black as she covered her face.
“Let me tell you, if you dare to cause trouble again next time, 1 will definitely send you to the police station. If you don’t believe me, try it.” Secretary Li kicked her again and shouted angrily, “Get lost.”
Wu Lili, ignoring the pain, took off her high heels and ran away as fast as she could.
Secretary Li clapped her hands and turned to leave.
The night was dark, and the moonlight poured down.
Shen Ning, carrying her bag, walked briskly towards the exit.
It was already late, and Coco and Xiaoxiao were probably fast asleep by now.
Tonight, she had finally succeeded, and the company was about to enter regular production, which would make her even busier.
Thinking that she hadn’t spent quality time with her children for several days, she felt guilty.
Just as she was about to reach the roadside to hail a taxi.
Suddenly, a soft voice reached her ears.
“Chenxi, my dad wants you to come to our house for dinner tomorrow.”
Shen Ning unintentionally glanced over.
Not far away, under a potted pine tree, a young couple stood there.
The girl was wearing a pure white mid-length dress, with a graceful figure and a charming aura.
The man was tall, wearing a sharp royal blue suit, exuding elegance and drawing attention.
Wasn’t that Jing Chenxi?
“Sorry, I have something to do tomorrow,” Jing Chenxi’s voice was indifferent and perfunctory.
“Well, when are you free then?” Jiang Xinyun’s voice carried a mix of grievances and hope.
“Xiaoyun, it’s getting late. You should go back to your uncle and aunt’s place. 1’11 call you when I have time.” Jing Chenxi raised his head and, upon seeing Shen Ning not far ahead, his eyes lit up. He said to Jiang Xinyun, “Ningning.”
Shen Ning snapped out of her thoughts and hurriedly walked away.
“Ningning.” Jing Chenxi ran a few steps to catch up to her and blocked her path. “Congratulations on the success of tonight’s tea party.”
“Thank you,” Shen Ning replied politely with a smile.
“Ningning, let me give you a ride home,” Jing Chenxi held her hand and headed towards his luxury car.
“No need,” Shen Ning withdrew her hand from his grasp and said calmly, “Mr. Jing, I think you should be giving a ride to Miss Jiang instead of me.”
It wasn’t until this moment that she remembered. That beautiful and serene woman who greeted her was none other than Jiang Xinyun, the daughter of Ship King whom Li Zhenteng had warned her about before. She was also Jing Chenxi’s fiancee.
How could she take someone else’s love?
Moreover, she had never considered anything beyond friendship with Jing Chenxi.
Jing Chenxi’s face darkened as he said, “Ningning, I’ve been wanting to explain the situation between me and Miss Jiang to you these past few days…”
“No need, Mr. Jing. You don’t have to explain anything to me. After all, we are the best of friends,” Shen Ning immediately interrupted him, smiling politely. “Miss Jiang is very talented and beautiful. Congratulations on finding such a wonderful girlfriend. Please, take her home. Girls can’t withstand being neglected.”
She walked towards the street, waving to him, and said, “Mr. Jing, I’m heading home to take care of my children. Thank you for your help tonight.”
Coincidentally, a taxi pulled up. She raised her hand to stop it and got in..
