Chapter 19
See You Again
“Sister, I’ve kept your phone.”
Lu Ning was pulled back to reality by Lu Jingzhi’s voice. She grabbed her tray firmly and looked at Huo Jinyan.
“Thank you, Mr. Huo.”
Chu Ting had been watching from behind for a long time. He poked his head out and looked at Lu Ning. “Miss Lu, what a coincidence.”
Lu Ning nodded at him. “I didn’t expect Mr. Huo to like coming to the amus.e.m.e.nt park.”
She would never have thought that Huo Jinyan was someone who would go to the amus.e.m.e.nt park to play.
Huo Jinyan did not say anything immediately, and Lu Ning was not expecting a response. They were simply exchanging pleasantries, but it was still a little rude to leave without saying anything.
She bowed slightly and turned around to leave. Before she could take a step, Huo Jinyan suddenly grabbed her wrist, almost causing the drink on her tray to spill.
Huo Jinyan looked at her, his gaze deep. Lu Ning really could not tell what he was going to do; she could only feel that she was wrapped in a powerful aura. There was a sense of oppression, and she was almost out of breath.
Lu Jingzhi noticed a black object in Chu Ting’s hand.
A tracker!
So it was them.
Lu Jingzhi narrowed his eyes and turned to look at his cornered sister. He suddenly took a few steps forward and s.n.a.t.c.hed the tracking device from Chu Ting’s hand while he was not paying attention.
“This toy looks so special, it looks fun. I want to play with it!”
His childish voice instantly attracted the attention of a few people.
Chu Ting was shocked. “Kid, that’s not a toy. Quickly return it to Uncle.”
He did not dare to chase after Lu Jingzhi for fear of scaring him. What if he dropped and broke it? It was not easy to get his hands on this.
Lu Jingzhi had a child-like smile on his face as he held the black object up high. “No, no, I want to play!”
As he spoke, he was about to run forward and he was prepared to let it go. He wanted to break this thing.
But before he could let go, he b.u.mped into someone.
“Little Darling, return it to Uncle.”
Lu Qing looked down at Lu Jingzhi and held him with his arm.
Lu Jingzhi looked up and saw his elder brother’s admonishing look, and was rendered speechless.
Big Brother, can you not appear so opportunely?
In this situation, Lu Jingzhi could no longer pretend that his hand slipped. He could only hand the item over to Lu Qing.
Lu Qing raised his hand and handed the item back to Chu Ting. “I’m sorry, my brother doesn’t know better. Please check if it’s damaged.”
“It’s fine. There’s no damage.”
“That’s good.”
Lu Qing then turned to look at Lu Ning.
However, she quickly turned to look at Huo Jinyan again.
“Sir, did my sister offend you in any way?”
Huo Jinyan looked at him, his eyes still deep and unfathomable.
Lu Qing did not panic even when he looked at him like that. “If she didn’t, please let her go.”
Lu Ning looked at Huo Jinyan. Seeing as he still had no intention of letting go, she spoke up to remind him, “Mr. Huo, we’re blocking the way.”
There were many people wanting to retrieve their meals, but they were probably intimidated by Huo Jinyan and did not dare make a sound.
Huo Jinyan looked at her without saying a word. He simply stared into her eyes for a long time before suddenly letting go. Then, he turned around and walked away from the crowd.
Lu Ning heaved a sigh of relief. Lu Jingzhi looked at her with concern. “Sister, are you hurt?”
Lu Ning shook her head. The three of them walked back, with Lu Ning bringing up the rear.
Just as she walked out of the crowd, she was stopped by a voice.
“Lu Ning.”
She met Huo Jinyan’s gaze and only heard him say, “See you again.”
Then, he pushed the door open and left the cafeteria.
