Chapter 397: Explosive! Can I Hug You Again?
gxi's uneasiness, Li Bichen raised his hand to help her straighten her necklace and leaned down softly to her ear, whispering, "Don't be nervous, let's go in."Luo Ningxi nodded and entered the auction..."Then we'll just drift further apart." Luo Ningxi didn't look at Yu Chengnan, but gave her answer with determination.
Yu Chengnan gritted his teeth, his eyes churning with turbulent emotions, as if something dark was about to spill out. But in the end, he only uttered, "I understand, but I'm used to the days where you're in my memories. Maybe... I still need a long time to accept the fact that you've married someone else."
"I believe you'll find someone who's a better fit for you."
"Can I hug you" Yu Chengnan suddenly said.
"What" Luo Ningxi was taken aback, and before she could speak, Yu Chengnan suddenly stepped forward and hugged her without warning.
Luo Ningxi's body stiffened abruptly, and she instinctively wanted to push him away. But Yu Chengnan didn't make things too difficult for her; with just a slight movement, he quickly let go of her. His voice was soft and low, "That's enough, Xixi. I'm happy that I can end today's trip with your embrace."
His honesty left Luo Ningxi speechless. She hadn't noticed the cold glint that flashed in Yu Chengnan's eyes.
……
Although the grandfather's condition has stabilized a lot, it's still necessary to prevent relapse, so Li Baochen remains by his bedside day and night.
He sat in the chair, his brows and eyes heavy with fatigue, unable to help but reach out and pinch the bridge of his nose.
Suddenly, he felt someone nearby and opened his eyes abruptly.
Li Bochen's eyes were cold and emotionless, which startled Jian Ningyi.
Seeing that it was Jian Ningyi, Li Bocen's eyes didn't show any relief. In fact, he turned his head away and ignored her completely.
He stopped Li Jianbin and Li Jiancheng, but he didn't expect that Jian Ningyi secretly followed!
"Bo Chen, you stayed up all night yesterday, go back and rest, don't overwork yourself."
Jian Ningyi's voice was soft as she spoke, wanting to put the jacket on Li Boche's shoulders, but the latter suddenly stood up from the chair and moved away from Jian Ningyi.
Li Bochen pursed his lips, remaining silent and keeping his gaze fixed on Old Master Li.
Completely ignored, Jian Ningyi felt a sense of injustice. She bit her lower lip, her expression aggrieved as she leaned into Li Bochen's side.
"Bo Chen, won't you even say a word to me now"
Her beautiful eyes were filled with emotion, the corners slightly red as if she would cry the next second. This pitiful appearance tugged at people's heartstrings, but Li Boche's heart remained unmoved.
"If you're idle, find something to do."
Jian Ningyi's body trembled violently. Thinking about the conversations she had eavesdropped on before, and looking at Li Boche's attitude towards her, she felt even more uneasy.
At the moment when Li Bochen was about to turn and leave, he was suddenly hugged from behind.
"I regret it."
"Regretting why I ever argued with you! If I hadn't married Li Jiancheng, if I hadn't framed you six years ago, we would be..."
Before the words could even leave her mouth, her wrist was suddenly gripped by Li Bochen. He yanked Jian Ningyi away with a forceful hand, his icy eyes devoid of any warmth as he stared at her like a stranger. “Second sister-in-law, please control yourself. Just because your brother isn’t here doesn’t mean you can run wild over me.”
Jian Ningyi puffed her cheeks, a look of resentment on her face. "I don't believe it, you don't have any feelings for me at all We grew up together since we were little, you said you would protect me forever!"
If I had feelings for you, they wouldn't be good feelings. Jian Ningyi, since you married my second brother, you should do your duty as a wife.
After uttering those words, Li Bochen strode away.
Watching Li Bochen's figure gradually disappear, Jian Ningyi clenched her hand tightly by her side.
Sharp nails clenched in the palm of her hand, a dull ache throbbed.
She doesn't believe it!
She couldn't believe that her and Li Bochen's feelings could be so easily forgotten by him!
Jian Ningyi gritted her teeth, the tightness in her chest making her want to stomp her feet.
After leaving, Li Bochen received a call from Mo Yao.
"Mr. Li, the tickets have been booked, departure in three days."
After confirming his return home, Li Botong booked a flight for Mo Yao.
Thinking about seeing his little rabbit soon, Li Boche's mood was excellent. Any unpleasantness he had felt towards Jian Ningyi just moments ago vanished completely.
……
At this very moment, in the early morning of China, a piece of news was quietly rising to the top headlines.
Luo Ningxi went to the company as usual. As soon as she walked into the office, she felt that the atmosphere inside was strange.
Many employees were staring at themselves, as if they had gathered together to whisper something in secret.
She felt several pairs of eyes on her, making Luo Ningxi feel extremely uncomfortable. She walked towards the tea room, intending to brew a cup of coffee to perk herself up, but she overheard voices coming from inside.
"I told you, Luo manager and Yu CEO definitely have something going on."
Suddenly hearing her own name, Luo Ningxi abruptly stopped.
"Luo Jingli is already married, isn't she How can she still be ambiguous with other men"
Who knows, anyway, it's trending on hot search.
"Wow, how many drones are they using As expected of Mr. Yu, he's truly generous."
Lo Ningxi listened for a long time, feeling more and more that something was wrong.
Trending
She hurriedly took out her phone and flipped through the entertainment news. When she saw the trending topic, she felt a buzzing in her head.
"Luo Ningxi and Yu Chengnan's sweet date! Thousands of drones romantically confess their love on site, the light show amazes the whole city…"my, almost dripping with displeasure!Anger surged through me like a flood, and I immediately called Mo Yao. "Find out," I said, my voice tight with urgency, "Find out where Luo Ningxi and Yu Chengnan...
