Lu Ning lowered her eyelids, looked at his hand, and said, "Then what's your good idea?"

"Of course we should get off the bus and reason with them!"

A look of surprise flashed in Lu Ning's eyes. What was the point of reasoning with the Chen family?

They are short of money right now, so how could they possibly listen to reason?

Ji Chiqian parked the car directly outside the Chen family villa: "It's no use reasoning with them, but I'll go. We need to let them know that I'm backing them up. How can we make them anxious and frustrated if we don't push them a little, and then trick them?"

Lu Ning thought that made sense.

But she just left the Chen family villa, and now she's going back?

This time, Ji Chiqian rolled down the car window, revealed his identity, and then drove in with great swagger.

Seeing the man's calm demeanor, Lu Ning realized he truly lived up to his reputation as the heir to the Beijing elite circle.

Knowing it was Ji Chiqian's car, no one stopped them.

Ji Chiqian didn't park the car in the parking lot; instead, he drove directly onto the lawn and stopped at the front gate of the villa.

The bodyguards and servants rushed over, looking at Lu Ning and Ji Chiqian as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

But no one stepped forward to say anything.

When Lu Ning saw this, she turned her head and saw Ji Chiqian with one hand on the steering wheel, looking calm and composed. It was impossible to tell that he was there to cause trouble.

As expected of the heir of the Ji family, he has the confidence to back it up!

Ji Chiqian turned his head to meet Lu Ning's gaze: "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"You look like you're good at fighting. Did you often go into fights with others with Gu Zifeng when you were in school?"

A picture of the impetuous youth of rich kids appeared in Lu Ning's mind.

Ji Chiqian narrowed his eyes slightly: "You're overthinking it."

It's not his turn to make a move yet.

"That's right. I heard you also graduated from Yunnan University. You must be a top student too."

Rich second-generation students who are academic high-achievers have an absolute advantage during their adolescence.

Lu Ning tilted her head and looked at him: "When you were in school, did a lot of girls like you and write you love letters?"

Ji Chiqian chuckled softly, and just as he was about to say something, Mrs. Chen stormed out.

Lu Ning and Ji Chiqian both stopped the conversation.

Mrs. Chen had a stern face, and her attitude was clearly not good: "Young Master Ji, you deliberately damaged my lawn. Do you have a problem with me?"

Ji Chiqian got out of the car immediately: "Yes, I heard that my girlfriend was wronged at the Chen family's house just now, so of course I had to come and see what happened."

Lu Ning also got out of the car and walked directly to Ji Chiqian's side, looking at Mrs. Chen with a hint of smugness in her eyes.

She knew that at this moment she had to adopt a domineering attitude.

Only by provoking the Chen family will there be a chance of success.

Mrs. Chen was indeed quite angry: "Young Master Ji, you should know that these are all our family matters. Even if you come in person, you are interfering a bit too much."

"Chen Yu is my girlfriend's good friend. My girlfriend likes to help others, so I definitely have to stand up for her."

Ji Chiqian took Lu Ning's hand and walked in.

Mrs. Chen followed angrily, saying, "That's because Lu Ning was meddling in other people's business."

Mrs. Chen wasn't actually very confident.

After all, Ji Chiqian is not someone to be trifled with. If he insists on supporting Lu Ning, it will be a very troublesome matter.

Ji Chiqian held Lu Ning's hand domineeringly: "I can't help it, I can't bear to see her suffer, Mrs. Chen, please bear with her."

Mrs. Chen was both angry and aggrieved; this was clearly a threat against her.

Mrs. Chen spoke up: "So what do you want?"

Anyway, Chen Yu won't hand it over.

Ji Chiqian asked calmly, "Where is Chen Yuren?"

"I don't know. If Young Master Ji has the ability, then go and search!"

Ji Chiqian pulled Lu Ning's hand, signaling her to calm down.

He looked at Mrs. Chen and said, "That's illegal. We can just sit here and wait."

Lu Ning was pulled along and sat down on the sofa with Ji Chiqian.

To be honest, she wouldn't do something so shameless.

But Ji Chiqian remained calm and composed, as if the living room were his own home.

Mrs. Chen gritted her teeth in anger: "Waiting here won't do you any good."

Ji Chiqian said meaningfully, "They came because they knew it would be useful."

Mrs. Chen remained silent. Could it be that Ji Chiqian had discovered something?

Mrs. Chen stormed off, saying, "Do whatever you want."

After Mrs. Chen left, Ji Chiqian looked at the butler beside him and said, "Bring some juice and fruit."

The butler hesitated for a moment, then did as instructed.

After all, this is the heir of the Ji family, so we must still treat him with the proper hospitality.

After the housekeeper left, Lu Ning leaned over and whispered, "This isn't what we planned."

"Plans can't keep up with changes."

Ji Chiqian glanced at her: "We can't just resort to force, but we can't let them get too happy either. Don't you have that stepmother's contact information? You can let her start making her move."

Lu Ning nodded: "But she'll probably hear about us being here soon, since rumors of us shamelessly staying often spread very quickly."

Sure enough, the stepmother appeared not long after.

But when Ji Chiqian saw the appearance of this young stepmother, a look of wariness appeared in his eyes. Why did she look a bit like that fake sister Qin Xiang?

Lu Ning tugged at Ji Chiqian's hand; she had the same expression when she first met this stepmother.

But if we meet here, there will be people watching us all around.

The stepmother sat on the sofa, her expression somewhat bleak: "I came to tell you that Chen Yu doesn't want to see you."

Seeing the expression on her stepmother's face, Lu Ning guessed that Mrs. Chen must have threatened her.

It's either using clichés or that young, sickly little boy.

Lu Ning was furious: "Has someone threatened you? If you agree, I'll call the police immediately."

"No, these are just our family matters. Miss Lu, don't worry too much, Chen Yu will be back at school soon."

Lu Ning frowned: "I don't believe it unless I can see Chen Yu with my own eyes."

The stepmother finally sighed, got up, and left.

Mrs. Chen and Lu Dongyou watched from the side. Mrs. Chen was a little unhappy: "Your sister is really capable. It's just a pity that you two don't get along. Otherwise, if you had the Ji family as your backer, would you need to cooperate with me?"

Lu Dongyou was not happy to hear this, and he understood that Mrs. Chen was mocking him.

Lu Dongyou said impatiently, "Then hurry up and get that woman to sign. Otherwise, if Lu Ning and the others don't leave, there's nothing you can do."

"You don't need to tell me, that woman is most worried about her son, she will definitely sign."

Mrs. Chen was also in a bad mood and went straight up to block her stepmother, Ye Ying: "Well, have you thought it through?"

"You've gone too far! Shameless!"

Ye Ying's face flushed with anger, but she still appeared weak and vulnerable.

Mrs. Chen had never liked this kind of woman. She snorted coldly, "When you were my brother's mistress, why didn't you think of being shameless?"

Lu Dongyou continued, "As long as you sign, you won't lose a single penny of the money I promised you. As for what will happen to Chen Yu, don't worry, I will take responsibility for her."

Although he used threats, since he had taken Chen Yu's money, he would take full responsibility.

Ye Ying lowered her head and remained silent for a moment, then replied with a sense of helplessness, "Okay, I'll sign."

Ye Ying took out the contract she had prepared in advance. Mrs. Chen and Lu Dongyou were in such a hurry that they didn't check the details of the contract.

When Ye Ying saw this scene, a cold glint flashed in her eyes.

Or perhaps we've been tricked?
