Daning's nonsense is more effective than any excuse.
Yan Jing turned around and saw Zhao Yu's car. His eyes darkened. He put the little girl down and said coldly, "Go away."
His voice was hoarse and terrifying. Zhao Anan was timid to begin with, and she trembled with fear.
Daning frowned slightly.
Zhao Anan looked at the eldest lady, then at Yan Jing, and then at her brother in the car in the distance, and didn't know what to do for a moment.
"Miss..."
Come on, Daning can't bear to see her cry.
"Don't cry."
"oh."
Zhao Anan held back her tears and looked at her obediently, with silly joy still in her eyes.
"I hate seeing you." Dai Ning puffed up her cheeks. She held the little girl's arm with disgust and led her to Zhao Yu. "Did your brother not feed you? You are so thin."
Zhao Anan said shyly: "I will definitely eat well when I get back."
Daning knocked on the car door: "Open the door."
The car locks were unlocked, and Dai Ning looked at Zhao Yu, smiling mischievously: "Master Zhao, I heard that you are going back to Wudong this month. That's a pity, you might just miss my engagement ceremony."
Zhao Yu raised his eyes and nodded at her, his gaze calm and restrained.
If she didn't know this man well enough, Daning would even think that he didn't care at all.
"Here, your sister, watch out." She said, "Zhao Anan, get in the car."
Zhao Anan sniffed. She was like a clingy little girl. She didn't need Zhao Yu to tell her anything. She turned around and hugged Dai Ning again, feeling extremely reluctant to let go.
The little girl's eyes were full of admiration and trust, and were as pretty and clean as the spotless sky.
Dai Ning was annoyed. She snorted, held Zhao Anan's shoulders and pushed her away.
The eldest lady was still cold, ruthless and vicious, and even her expression was arrogant, as if Zhao Anan was some dirty thing.
Only Qingtuan sensed that Daining secretly hugged Zhao Anan.
It was a very brief action, so brief that Zhao Anan herself might not even be aware of it. Qingtuan realized this fact and felt a little amused.
From the day he bound Daning, he knew that she was a supporting actress in Black Soul. If it weren't for her good looks, it would not be an exaggeration to say that she was cannon fodder.
She is not a good person. She does not have the correct values, is delicate, lies, and loves to do bad things.
But she... likes and yearns for beautiful things.
So she would quietly hug Zhao Anan, and would clumsily try to help Zhang Youying, and no longer deliberately flirt with Li Hu to make her sad.
She was awful to men, but was helpless when it came to soft girls.
The eldest lady is soft-hearted and would rather be tough with others. She wanted to stab Zhao Yu in the heart because Zhao Yu had tried to imprison her before.
Zhao Anan climbed into the car, and Dai Ning turned and left. Zhao Yu said, "I'll come see you in two days."
As their car drove away, Daning was hugged from behind.
She looked particularly petite in Yan Jing's arms. Yan Jing's grip was a little tight, but when he realized something, he loosened his grip, pursed his lips, and his brows were still furrowed enough to kill a fly.
Dai Ning curled her lips, smiled sweetly and cutely, and fell back in his arms.
"Let's go, the wind is blowing."
She didn't explain anything, and seemed certain that no matter what happened, Yan Jing would be as loyal as a dog.
"Brother, carry me back."
He was silent, and finally squatted down, and Daning climbed onto his back.
She liked this gentleness. She put her soft arms around his neck and spoke to him with a smile. Her tone was rare and sweet and gentle. When Yan Jing was tired, she would occasionally wipe the sweat off his face.
It's obvious that he is a scumbag.
She is not afraid of being abandoned or questioned. She exposes her bad side, and the people who are reluctant to let her go become the ones with good fortune.
Qingtuan suddenly remembered a poem.
In the end, Zhuang Zhou dreamed of being a butterfly. You are both a blessing and a calamity.
It has become terribly literary recently. Taking a look at the scenery, I wondered wistfully, how long can your dream last
As the engagement day approached, Ji Tian's face gradually recovered.
The heroine is really lucky, Dai Ning thought, if it were her, she would definitely be disfigured with a bruised face and swollen nose and attempted suicide, but Ji Tian was very strong and after she recovered, she was as good as ever.
This is also the reason why Dai Ning is particularly pretentious. She is unlucky and fragile and can't bear to see anything happen to herself.
Dai Ning didn't believe that Ji Tian wouldn't cause trouble, so she had been on guard against her these days.
Unexpectedly, Ji Tian was so obedient that even Ji Mojue no longer tried to please her. He was like a invisible person in the Ji family.
However, there were two times recently when Ji Tian went out quietly.
Dai Ning whispered, "Follow her."
In the evening, Daining's people came back and whispered something in Daining's ear. Daining was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, she realized that they were just praising Ji Tian for a good job!
If Ji Tian doesn't take action, she will have to marry Yan Jing, which is not fun.
Did the heroine think she could get away with it every time? This time she wanted to teach Ji Tian a lesson she would never forget.
Yan Jing was very concerned about the engagement and did everything himself. Dai Ning was also happy about it, if for no other reason than to see the dark blue face of that old fox Guan Zaichang.
The Yan family and the Ji family have been in an antagonistic relationship for many years. Guan Zaichang is not without ambitions, but compared to Lin Yunru, all of this is so insignificant that it can be ignored.
Now, because of the eldest young master, he has to be respectful to the little witch of the Ji family. It makes him feel depressed just thinking about it.
What's even more outrageous is that compared to studying business, Yan Shao is more concerned about what Miss Ji eats every day, whether she will get an upset stomach or catch a cold.
Guan Zaichang: …
He had something in his mind, but he didn't know whether he should say it or not.
Weirdly, Guan Zaichang actually understood a bit of the bitter feeling in the hearts of the ancient ministers who purged the emperor's side.
Two days later, Dai Ning actually received an invitation from Zhang Youying.
She felt curious and went out to keep the appointment.
Zhang Youying's dress was still rather androgynous. When he saw her, there was a hint of awkward contempt on his face, but the envy in the depths of his eyes could not be concealed.
People are so strange. Everyone envies what they don't have.
Zhang Youying envied Daining's beauty and girlish pampering, and the eldest lady, even if she didn't say it and didn't admit it in her heart, probably envied Zhang Youying's simplicity, bravery and purity.
"What do you want from me?"
"I want to talk to you about Li Hu." Zhang Youying clenched the cup tightly. "He is not in a good condition. I don't know what's going on with you. If possible, can you go see him?"
Daning looked at her strangely.
Zhang Youying pursed her lips. It was obvious that she had made a great decision to do such a shameful thing. After all, Dai Ning was her rival in love. Asking her rival to see the person she liked was really something she couldn't do.
"He is very sad. I have known Li Hu for so long, and he has never been so depressed. Li Hu is also very pitiful. His mother often beat him when he was a child."
"If he's sad, you can comfort him. Why are you looking for me?"
"I, I can't." Zhang Youying turned his face away, "Besides, I can see that he likes you."
Qingtuan looked at Zhang Youying with sympathy and thought, if this girl, who was as rigid as a stone, had any of Ji Daening's skills in flirting with men, she wouldn't be so miserable being single.
"Men don't listen..." Daning bit the straw and said slowly, "Just sleep with them once and they'll be fine."
Under Zhang Youying's dull gaze, she tilted her head and added in a soft voice, "If it doesn't work once, it should work a few more times."
Zhang Youying blushed.
"Shame on you!"
Dai Ning said with a smile: "Look at you, you want me to agree to go see him, but you don't want me to. You are the only one who likes this little pervert, I don't like him. He is probably suffering from a second-year syndrome. If he really likes me so much, why doesn't he go crazy, beg me, or even come to me himself."
Zhang Youying was completely confused when he heard this.
The eldest lady took out a candy and put it into Zhang Youying's palm with a stingy and reluctant expression.
"You've been guarding him for so many years, stop thinking about fulfilling him. At least try to talk it through with him. The worst that can happen is that you'll just end up back where you started. But what if you succeed?"
Zhang Youying clenched the candy in his palm, feeling deeply touched.
She looks tall, but actually she is just an adult girl.
The two walked out of the shop, and Dai Ning saw Zhao Yu waiting at the door. He had said a few days ago that he would come to see her, but she didn't expect it would be now.
Zhang Youying said to Dai Ning awkwardly: "I understand, thank you, I'm leaving now."
She took a few steps and turned back to add.
"If you come to Fengming in the future, you can find me and I will protect you."
Dai Ning's eyes were bright and she nodded.
In fact, Daning’s theory that “men are disobedient” is pure nonsense. After all, she herself is also groping her way through her life.
But she could not have imagined that when she revisited the place several years later, Zhang Youying would actually stage a "wife running away with the baby" drama.
Anyway, it's extremely magical.
At this moment, Zhang Youying left. Zhao Yu opened the car door and motioned for Dai Ning to get in: "I have something to tell you."
"A million a minute."
Zhao Yu said: "Okay."
“Is real-time transfer possible?”
"Can."
"Then don't stay in the car. I want to go to the sky garden of this building."
Zhao Yu paused and nodded.
Sure, it’s all right, Dai Ning looked at Zhao Ke curiously as he went to negotiate.
The sky garden of this building is not open to the public. It is said that it was built by the owner for his deceased wife.
Dai Ning didn't think Zhao Yu could succeed in the negotiation. She made those conditions, not to agree to his request, but to trick him. Zhao Yu must have understood this, after all, she would never give up.
But after a while, when she went up to the sky garden, she still felt it was unreal.
"What did you say to the boss?" Dai Ning asked curiously.
In the hot July, the Sky Garden turned out to be a pure land with a mild climate, soft soil and fluttering butterflies.
The roses are as warm as fire, and the towering old tree has thousands of branches hanging down, with an exquisite swing tied to it.
In fact, Zhao Yu didn’t say anything. The boss looked at him for a long time, shook his head and said two words: "Pathetic".
He was given twenty minutes of use.
"Don't you have something to say? Why are you looking at me like that?" Dai Ning was very confused. She kicked him gently. "Five million, do you want me to stop getting engaged to Yan Jing? No way. Of course, you can try to stop him. You wanted to kill him before. Try a few more times. What if you succeed?"
Her delicate fingers stroked the swing, and her beautiful little face was filled with smiles.
"If he dies, I will marry you, what do you say?"
Zhao Yu laughed softly, his laughter became louder and louder, and it was unclear who he was laughing at.
After a long time, he stopped smiling, looked at her calmly, and stroked her cheek with his hand.
"Ji Daining, I give up on you."
Daning was stunned.
Wh, what
"I won't play this game with you. I'm quitting. You can have fun with it for the rest of your life." His fingers were very gentle, brushing across her eyebrows. He said he gave up on her, but his eyes were filled with a soft light, "You really are..."
The sentence was not finished.
Daning blinked at him.
After the reunion, Zhao Yu seemed like a mad man, no longer the calm and gentle man who used to plan strategies.
But at this moment, the man in front of him gradually overlapped with Zhao Yu three years ago. His back was straight, and his whole body was like a cypress tree that would rather break than bend.
Even if the roots gradually decay and die, the spirit must remain unchanged.
Dai Ning couldn't understand the emotion in Zhao Yu's eyes. She pulled at his clothes for a long time and smiled at him innocently.
"I'm a little regretful. How about I break up with Yan Jing and be with you? Okay?"
He lowered his eyes and smiled, then stroked her soft curly hair.
It didn't say yes or no, but it was a clear rejection.
Dai Ning was a little angry. She always hated things that were out of her control. Even when Zhao Yu went crazy and wanted to imprison her some time ago, she could always come up with the most heart-breaking countermeasures and still get away with it.
He was afraid that she would close her eyes and never wake up, but she insisted on making him feel it again and forced him to let her go.
But now, she couldn't predict what Zhao Yu was going to do, so she had to test him deliberately, but Zhao Yu was not fooled.
A butterfly landed on her shoulder and the conversation ended unpleasantly.
Before Dai Ning left, Zhao Yu said, "Wait."
Her eyes lit up and she snorted softly, "You regret it now!"
Zhao Yu squatted down and tied her untied shoelaces. He lowered his eyebrows, as if brushing away a speck of dust.
Neither humble nor flattering, but excessively calm.
After standing up, Zhao Yu took out a check from his suit pocket, signed his name, and placed it in Dai Ning's palm.
"Fill in the numbers yourself. Just fill in whatever makes you happy. I won't try to trick you into giving you anything I promised you."
She held the check and looked at him with pursed lips.
Confused and puzzled, at this moment, I really acted like a confused child.
Zhao Yu said: "Let's go home."
When she got home, Daning still looked confused.
"What does Zhao Yu want to do?"
Qingtuan didn't know either, it was too difficult: "Did you break it?"
"He doesn't like me?"
No, Qingtuan thought, he has absolutely no way to stop you.
He wanted to be the Zhao Yu he used to be, retaining the last bit of his dignity, instead of ending up in such an embarrassing situation where he lost everything.
