Chapter 1439: Who Cares About Your Money
The King of Gamblers broke out in a cold sweat. If he were to touch Lu Ning rashly, the men of the Lu family would definitely come for him.
“Haha, so you’re the daughter of the Lu’s. I’ve heard a lot about you. Let this slide, Miss Lu, we wouldn’t have known each other if it didn’t happen,” the King of Gamblers said, trying to salvage the situation.
Lu Ning didn’t want to see the ugly face of this old man any longer, so she simply said, “It’s okay.”
At this moment, the hand on her shoulder gave her a gentle squeeze, then said, “Lu Ning, go and play.”
Lu Ning looked at Yin Zhihan, who was looking at her gently.
“Ah Ning, let’s go out,” Xiao Qiu bounced over to her.
“Okay,” Lu Ning agreed, then they left.
..
Xiao Qiu clutched Lu Ning’s slender arm. “Ah Ning, was what the Chairman said true? Do you have a very powerful family?”
Lu Ning smiled. “My family is my family, I am me.”
Xiao Qiu raised her head, her heart ached for Lu Ning. “Ah Ning, you’re too proud.”
Lu Ning was puzzled, how was she proud?
“Xiao Qiu, I need to get some air. You should go in and eat first.” Lu Ning withdrew her arm.
“Okay, but Ah Ning, don’t run around. We have to dance later,” Xiao Qiu admonished.
“Okay.” Lu Ning nodded.
Once Xiao Qiu left, Lu Ning glanced around, seeming to be looking for someone.
Then she heard someone chuckling behind her. “Are you looking for me?”
Lu Ning froze. She turned and saw Yin Zhihan standing in front of her and she started to blush for no reason. But still, she bravely met his gaze head-on and said, “Chairman, how did you walk so silently?”
“You did not hear me because you were looking around for me too intently.” Yin Zhihan walked forward. “Is there something you need from me?”
Of course, there was.
Lu Ning straightened her back and arched her head back so that she could look clearly at the tall man in front of her. “You were away from the company for so long because you were here gambling? Gambling is not good. It’s your hard-earned money, what if you lose? You could lose the entire To.” She furrowed her brows.
She was clearly very young, yet she acted so mature and tried to reason with him earnestly.
Yin Zhihan raised his straight eyebrows. His gaze was drawn to her lips. Her lips were bright red and extremely alluring. As she spoke, he could see her perfect teeth. He wanted to hold her in his hands.
“Lu Ning, even if I lose money, what does it have to do with you?” He said faintly.
Lu Ning was taken aback. “Ah?”
Yin Zhihan stuck his hands in his pockets and bent down slightly and lean closer to her. “It’s my money I’m losing, why are you distressed over it?”
Lu Ning’s cheeks were as red as a tomato. Only then did she realize what she had said. She was concerned about his money!
Her long fan-like lashes fluttered violently as she stumbled to explain, “Who… Who’s upset about your money? What I mean is your gambling behavior… is not good. As my superior, you did not lead a good example”
Being in close proximity, he could see that her skin was really smooth and supple, and it had a pearl-like glow. She looked so adorable when she was nervous, and it made him want to devour her.
Over the years, she had changed a lot. She had become brave, confident, and independent. She was a modern woman who did not need to rely on anyone to live her own life. However, there was one thing that did not change.
She was still extremely skittish around him.
A few years ago, she saw him as he came out of the bathroom after a shower and accidentally dropped the p.o.r.n magazine in her hands as she turned away. She was as nervous and helpless as she was now when he walked behind her to help her pick up the magazine.
