After Miss Lu became the only one to enjoy the limelight, her six brothers knelt down and begged for

When Lu Ning came out after taking a shower that evening, she took out her phone and scrolled through her WeChat Moments.

All of them are likes.

Su Jingbai: Tsk.

Chen Guoguo: I'm so envious.

Chen Yu: Agreed.

Qin Yang: You don't need to be envious.

When Lu Ning saw these comments, she smiled and pursed her lips.

Ji Chiqian went to the bathroom, and Lu Ning secretly took Ji Chiqian's phone and tried the password.

It's still the same password as before. Didn't he change it?

Lu Ning opened her WeChat Moments and saw the post he had just made.

This man doesn't seem to post much on his WeChat Moments; the few posts he does post are all related to work.

In addition to this, Ji Chiqian also pinned it to the top of his WeChat Moments.

This post on WeChat Moments also received a lot of likes.

Gu Zifeng: I'm so envious! The eternal single dog has finally found a partner.

Ji Mo: Hello, sister-in-law. I wish you a long and happy marriage and many children.

Lu Ning smiled and even pinned the post to the top of her WeChat Moments; that's quite a show of sincerity.

"finish watching?"

Ji Chiqian's voice suddenly appeared behind her, startling Lu Ning.

She quickly put her phone aside: "You...you were so fast?"

Ji Chiqian pinched her chin: "Me, fast? Heh, looks like it's time to teach you a lesson."

Ji Chiqian pinned Lu Ning down and looked down at her.

Lu Ning covered Ji Chiqian's mouth: "I meant you shower quickly, you misunderstood."

"What did I misunderstand?"

Ji Chiqian lowered his head and kissed the corner of her lips: "Say it."

Lu Ning covered his mouth: "You know perfectly well what's going on."

Ji Chiqian chuckled softly and lowered his head to kiss Lu Ning.

His hand touched her waist, his nose pressed against her face, and he chuckled softly, "There are more important things to do now."

Lu Ning slowly closed her eyes, completely surrendering herself to him.

The next day, Lu Ning went straight to school.

Chen Guoguo: "Lu Ning, your school counselor is looking for you."

Lu Ning: "What do you want from me?"

"I'm not sure, you'll find out when you get there."

Lu Ning went straight to the office, only to find Ye Ying there.

Lu Ning was somewhat surprised; why was she seeing her in the office?

The counselor stood up and said with a smile, "Lu Ning, you're here. I didn't expect you to do another good deed."

Ye Ying stood up: "Yes, Lu Ning, I really want to thank you, but I also know you don't lack money. That's why I came to the school and told them about your good deed, hoping the school can recognize you."

Lu Ning was speechless after hearing these words.

She had already said that she didn't need Ye Ying's thanks, and she disliked others making such decisions on her own.

Counselor: "Lu Ning, this is great news! Our school is awarding you a bonus and will also give you extra credits."

Looking at the banner in her hand, Lu Ning felt like she was being roasted over a fire.

Ye Ying walked over and said, "Miss Lu, thank you so much for saving me."

Lu Ning's expression was indifferent: "But Ms. Ye, did you ask for my consent?"

Ye Ying looked embarrassed and said cautiously, "Miss Lu, did I make you angry? If you don't like this way, I don't have to do it this way."

The counselor quickly said, "Lu Ning, how could you do this? Giving a banner is such a good thing, so honorable."

Lu Ning looked at her counselor and said, "Teacher, I've always preferred to do good deeds anonymously, and I don't like receiving banners of appreciation. Making a big fuss about it is inappropriate."

Lu Ning handed the banner to the counselor and turned to leave the office.

Ye Ying watched Lu Ning's retreating figure and smiled. "She's angry already?"

Ye Ying walked out of the office and looked at her secretary: "Make preparations for the media."

She leaned against the railing, watching Lu Ning's back.

Little girl, you still have plenty of time.

I happen to have some free time now, so I can spend a few days with you and have some fun.

Secretary: Boss, won't this attract their attention?

Ye Ying smiled smugly: "It's good that we've attracted their attention. No matter how they investigate, they won't figure out the plans behind PZ Company. By the time they realize the problem, we'll have already closed the net."

Ye Ying closed her eyes and breathed in the outside air.

Ye Ying revealed a smug expression: "There's a smell of victory in the air, can you smell it?"

After years of hard work, she can finally reap the rewards.

By then, it will all be over.

Lu Ning returned to her dormitory and sat down directly in a chair.

Chen Guoguo: "Lu Ning, what's wrong? You don't look well. Did your counselor say something to you?"

Chen Yu poked her head out: "Yeah, did I bully you?"

Lu Ning looked at Chen Yu: "I saw Ye Ying in my office just now."

"Why is she here?"

Chen Yu was extremely shocked.

Lu Ning recounted what had just happened.

Chen Yu: "I really didn't expect her to do this. Aunt Ye has always been very low-key and knows how to keep her distance. I never thought she would do something so offensive."

Chen Guoguo: "She actually sent a banner. Generally speaking, a banner like that shows sincerity, but she knew you didn't need to thank her, yet she went directly to the school. That's moral blackmail."

Lu Ning nodded: "Yes, that's how I feel too. After all, I've been morally blackmailed many times over the years, and I really hate this kind of behavior."

The reason we didn't fall out at the time was because of the counselor.

Because she knew that her advisor was genuinely happy for her and wanted to help her get awards and scholarships.

Lu Ning, however, expressed great doubt about Ye Ying's motives.

Chen Yu said with a guilty look, "Lu Ning, I'm sorry, I clearly rejected her too."

"It's not your fault. I saw her when I left school last night, and I told her to her that she didn't need to thank me."

Lu Ning glanced at Chen Yu: "Your stepmother doesn't seem as timid and kind as I've met before."

Especially when I saw that face that looked so much like Qin Xiang's.

Chen Guoguo: "Could that stepmother be pretending to be weak while actually being strong?"

Chen Yu: "I don't know either, because I'm not really close to her. She's been abroad all these years."

Chen Guoguo continued, "But the stepmother is a graduate of a socialite training program. In terms of methods and scheming, she's definitely not an ordinary person. She's definitely not a timid, kind-hearted little white flower."

Lu Ning narrowed her eyes: "So, we've been ignoring her all this time?"

Indeed, a woman who can successfully graduate from a socialite training program is no small figure.

Chen Yu's expression became very complicated, and he gave a bitter smile.

She said, "Indeed, women who can thrive in wealthy families are no ordinary people. What my aunt said at the beginning might have some truth to it, after all, she watched how Ye Ying became my stepmother."

Lu Ning nodded: "Although your aunt is indeed not a good person, she does have some skill in judging women. But I have no grudge against Ye Ying, so what is her intention in doing this?"

What is Ye Ying trying to achieve by doing this?
