Lu Ning remembered that she seemed to have eaten at Liyuan as well.

The last time Gu Zifeng treated us to dinner, we went to that place.

Ji Chiqian was unusually guilty, and he answered with a straight face, "Yes, it's the place we went to before."

Anyway, it was Gu Zifeng who 'paid'.

Lu Ning nodded: "I knew this name sounded familiar."

Qin Xiang covered her mouth and laughed: "Alright, stop pretending. You only went to a knock-off version of the opera house, not the one I was talking about. After all, with your status as a school doctor, you probably can't afford a meal there."

When Qin Xiang passed by here just now, she saw Lu Ning with a man and couldn't help but walk in.

It really was Lu Ning and that poor school doctor.

Fortunately, Lu Ning was still with this penniless guy and didn't have a chance to seduce Gu Yan, so she was relieved.

Lu Ning's fair face was cold: "It's just a meal, is it worth bragging about like this? Are you that hungry?"

"Lu Ning, why are you so angry? I just want your school doctor boyfriend to treat you better and not eat at this kind of hole-in-the-wall restaurant. At least go to a nice Western restaurant and eat some French food."

Qin Xiang was in a good mood; finally, there was a place where she could outshine Lu Ning.

At least her boyfriend is very rich.

But Lu Ning's boyfriend is just a poor school doctor who will be penniless for the rest of his life!

"Qin Xiang, with your pig brain, how could you possibly taste anything?"

After Lu Ning finished speaking, she grabbed Ji Chiqian's wrist and said, "Let's go."

There's no need to listen to Qin Xiang's rambling on here.

Ji Chiqian glanced down at her, but did not resist. He obediently followed Lu Ning out of the restaurant.

Qin Xiang was still somewhat unwilling and left the restaurant: "Lu Ning, running away from home must be tough, right? If you need money, you can tell me."

Lu Ning turned around: "You should just sleep with him and coax the landlord's silly son. After all, his mother is no pushover."

Qin Xiang never took away her glory or achieved success in her career.

So how did Bai Lianhua manage to win over Gu Yan's difficult mother-in-law this time?

I'm afraid it's difficult.

Qin Xiang stomped her foot in anger. How did Lu Ning know that Gu Yan's mother didn't like her?

She had previously bought a gift for Gu Yan's mother, and the next day the mother sent someone to return it, saying in a very rude tone that she would not accept anything of unknown origin.

It's obvious he doesn't like her.

Qin Xiang was so angry that her face was contorted. She was determined to marry into the Gu family, become a wealthy socialite, and forever outshine Lu Ning.

"Beep beep," Gu Yan said, parking his sports car on the side of the road and honking his horn.

Qin Xiang jogged over, revealing a pure and lovely smile: "You're here."

Who are you talking to? Why aren't you coming over?

"Oh, I ran into Lu Ning and her school doctor boyfriend. I thought they had broken up, but I didn't expect them to still be together. Lu Ning is quite loyal."

She came to a bustling place like Yunjing, but still didn't think about getting rid of her penniless school doctor boyfriend. How stupid of her.

Gu Yan subconsciously looked towards the alley; he was also a little curious about what Lu Ning's boyfriend looked like.

How could someone be attracted to a violent woman like Lu Ning? Do they have something wrong with their eyes?!

He spotted Lu Ning immediately, along with the tall man beside her.

Gu Yan looked at that figure from behind and felt a sense of familiarity, but couldn't be sure for a moment.

That's probably unlikely!

Qin Xiang suddenly blocked Gu Yan's eyes, and said with a hint of jealousy, "What are you looking at?"

Could he be looking at Lu Ning?

That's not okay.

Gu Yan clicked his tongue: "Stop fooling around."

But when he looked up again, Lu Ning and the others were gone.

I must have read it wrong.

Gu Yan then coaxed Qin Xiang, "What can I see? Who can be as handsome as our darling? I'm just curious about what Lu Ning's boyfriend looks like."

"He's quite handsome, but he's very poor. He even takes her to cheap, hole-in-the-wall restaurants on dates."

Qin Xiang was in a good mood: "Then take me to Liyuan for dinner quickly, I want to take more photos to post on WeChat Moments."

But when Gu Yan drove to the pear garden, he was told there were no seats available.

Gu Yan was puzzled: "I clearly reserved a table using my cousin's card."

"Young Master Gu instructed that you are no longer allowed to use his card."

Gu Yan felt a little embarrassed and called Gu Zifeng: "Cousin, why won't you let me use your card anymore?"

"I told you not to get involved in Lu Ning's matter, but did you listen? You even made statements in legal circles. Where do you get the nerve?"

Gu Zifeng berated Gu Yan and then hung up the phone.

Gu Yan's expression turned somewhat unpleasant.

Qin Xiang walked over: "Ayan, what's wrong? Can't we go in and eat?"

She had been longing for this for a long time, and had just boasted about it to Lu Ning.

Gu Yan replied irritably, "It's all because of you. My cousin found out about what I said in the legal circle and warned me not to meddle, or I'd be in big trouble if my mom found out."

Qin Xiang immediately replied cautiously, "But this was also something Mo Shanshan said."

“My cousin isn’t stupid; he must have heard something.”

Qin Xiang asked curiously, "Why do I feel like your cousin is so protective of Lu Ning?"

"I also think he and Lu Ning might be having an affair. Last time I was injured in City A, it was my cousin who came to find me personally. Otherwise, I would definitely have pursued this to the end!"

Qin Xiang paused for a moment, recalling the man who had come to the hospital to find Gu Yan.

She tentatively asked, "Was the man who came to the hospital to see you that day your cousin?"

"That's right, otherwise why do you think I gave up pursuing Lu Ning's responsibility!"

Qin Xiang turned pale with fright: "But that man has a very good relationship with that school doctor."

Who would have thought that a poor school doctor would have such a good relationship with the heir of the wealthy Gu family?

Gu Yan said doubtfully, "I guess they're friends. I'll ask my cousin later. But it's not a good time for me to cause trouble for Lu Ning right now, otherwise my cousin won't let me off the hook."

Qin Xiang could only manage a forced smile; she couldn't even cry anymore.

If that man is Gu Yan's cousin, wouldn't she have already left a bad impression on him? Wouldn't he tell Gu Yan's mother?

Qin Xiang felt extremely irritated; it was all Lu Ning's fault!

She could have made a good impression on the Gu family.

What to do now?

-

After Lu Ning returned to her dorm, she saw a WeChat message from Ji Chiqian: "Have you run out of plasters?"

She glanced at it and it seemed to be completely used up.

She replied, "Where did you buy it?"

She searched online but couldn't find this brand of plaster.

"You can't buy it outside."

"How much is it? I'll transfer it to you."

Ji Chiqian narrowed his eyes as he looked at her message: "Talking about money with me, so meticulous about the details?"

Lu Ning deliberately asked, "If we don't talk about money, what should we talk about?"

With his long, slender fingers, he typed a reply: "Let's talk about feelings."
