Ji Chiqian looked at the secretary in front of him in disbelief: "She had the company send someone to pick her up? How dare she!"

Secretary: "Mr. Ji, our company was actually going to send someone to pick up Designer Lu. But Designer Lu refused, saying that he had found a place to stay and didn't need us to pick him up."

Ji Chiqian gritted his teeth: "Send a car to pick them up."

That woman is such a nuisance.

Ji Chiqian looked at his secretary: "Don't you have other work to do?"

"Indeed, there is also an international conference."

"Then let's have a meeting."

Ji Chiqian buried the documents at the very bottom of the file folder; he didn't want to see this woman at all right now.

When Ji Chiqian came out of the meeting, he casually glanced at his secretary and asked, "Has the person arrived?"

The secretary asked in surprise, "Who is it?"

Ji Chiqian was a little annoyed: "Who else could it be? Are all of Gu Zifeng's secretaries so clueless?"

The secretary then realized, "Could it be Designer Lu?"

"idiot!"

He was so angry at these people.

The secretary quickly asked the person next to her, "Where's Designer Lu? Has he received him yet?"

"No, no, Designer Lu hasn't shown up. He said our company's benefits are bad, which is different from what he said at the beginning."

Ji Chiqian chuckled: "She wants me to pick her up in person."

He saw right through her little scheme.

The secretary hesitated before asking, "Do you know this designer?"

"If I could, I would rather not have met him."

That's what Ji Chiqian was thinking, but now all he could do was go to her.

He changed his clothes, went downstairs, and got into his car: "Let's go find her. By the way, where is she?"

"At, at the beauty salon."

Ji Chiqian looked at the secretary in the passenger seat: "Beauty salon? She's in a good mood, going to a beauty salon to enjoy herself."

The secretary, sitting in the passenger seat, asked, "Are we still going?"

"Go, of course."

Ji Chiqian was seething with anger, and he was determined to make that woman pay once he found her.

At that moment, Lu Ning was lying on the bed enjoying a massage when she suddenly sneezed.

I feel a chill down my back.

Lu Ning looked at the people around her: "Where are Ji Chiqian's people?"

"They said they're on their way and will come to pick you up in person."

"No wonder I felt a chill down my spine, it turns out that man has arrived."

Lu Ning sat up: "Alright, time to enjoy yourself is over. The angry demon king is coming soon."

Ji Chiqian, having been tricked by himself, would certainly not let this go.

That man is always petty, so he definitely won't let me have an easy time.

When Lu Ning went to change her clothes, a middle-aged woman in uniform walked in next to her; she seemed to be a staff member here.

Lu Ning didn't think much of it until a knife suddenly appeared behind her.

"Don't move, or I'll kill you!"

Lu Ning suddenly felt a chill run down her spine: "Who are you?"

The middle-aged woman behind her finally raised her head and said in a sinister tone, "Have you forgotten me so quickly?"

Lu Ning looked at the middle-aged woman in the mirror: "It's you, Mrs. Gu? Oh no, you shouldn't be Mrs. Gu now, but Aunt Gu?"

Lu Ning's words made Madam Gu's face turn pale with anger.

Madam Gu said angrily, "It's all your fault. If it weren't for you and your daughter, I wouldn't have ended up in this situation."

If it wasn't targeting the mother and daughter, why would the Ji family target the Gu family so much that they went bankrupt?

After all, the Gu family and Gu Zifeng's side are related, and the Ji family will not go so far as to completely destroy them because of this relationship.

It's all because of that little slut.

Lu Ning said calmly, "You're wrong. Your Gu family's bankruptcy wasn't because of me."

"If it's not because of you, then who else could it be because of?"

"It's because the Gu family is so incompetent that the Ji family can't hold on when they target you. Your son is useless, so you pinned all your hopes on your grandson, but unfortunately, he's useless too."

Madam Gu, holding a knife, said, "You're talking nonsense. Any family that is targeted by the Ji family would go bankrupt."

“But your Gu family has long been an empty shell, constantly robbing Peter to pay Paul. If the Ji family doesn’t take action, you won’t be able to hold on for long.”

Madam Gu's expression changed: "You... how did you know?"

These are all Gu family secrets, known only to her and a few close confidantes.

But how did this woman know?

Lu Ning looked at Madam Gu: "Your Gu family is just an empty shell; a little investigation will reveal that."

"Hmph, it's no use for you to say such things, you bitch. Today is your death day. Even if the Gu family goes bankrupt, I won't let you live as you wish."

Madam Gu smiled smugly: "You're unlucky to have fallen into my hands today."

"Oh."

Lu Ning remained calm, showing no signs of nervousness.

Madam Gu said anxiously, "Aren't you scared? I have nothing left now, and I'll drag you down with me."

Lu Ning said calmly, "No, you're still alive, aren't you? You came here to work and earn money. I can give you money."

Upon hearing this, Madam Gu was immediately tempted.

Yes, she can still ask for money.

Madam Gu said coldly, "That's right, you caused the Gu family to go bankrupt, so you must pay compensation."

"Yes, yes, that's right. I'll transfer the money to you later."

Lu Ning carefully moved away from Madam Gu's knife.

At that moment, the door of the beauty salon suddenly opened, and Ji Chiqian appeared in the doorway.

Upon seeing this, Madam Gu immediately placed the knife against Lu Ning's neck: "Don't come any closer."

"Ouch, ouch, be careful, don't cut my neck."

Lu Ning looked at Ji Chiqian who had appeared. Why did this man have to show up at this crucial moment?

Isn't this just causing trouble?

She had just persuaded Madam Gu, but this man's appearance disrupted everything.

Ji Chiqian's face turned ashen as he looked at Madam Gu: "You'd better let her go, or you'll face the consequences."

"Haha, Ji Chiqian, you've already bankrupted the Gu family. Do you think I'm still afraid of you? This woman is in my hands now, and I call the shots."

Ji Chiqian asked coldly, "What do you want to do?"

Madam Gu looked at Ji Chiqian: "Haha, it seems you really want to save her. But didn't you love that little bitch Lu Ning? Have you fallen for someone else now?"

"That little girl is your illegitimate child, isn't she? That makes sense; considering her age, you two probably started dating after Lu Ning disappeared."

Ji Chiqian's face was filled with anger: "Shut up! You are not worthy to mention her name."

"You're angry already? Wasn't that bitch Lu Ning your white moonlight? Now you've fallen for someone else. I think you're nothing special."

Seeing Ji Chiqian angry made Madam Gu feel even more pleased.

Lu Ning coughed all over: "Let's talk this out, don't swear."

Her Chinese name is also Lu Ning.

This sounds like an insult directed at her.

Madam Gu looked at her and said, "Shut up. You're just a lowly substitute. Although you look somewhat like Lu Ning, you're still far inferior."

Lu Ning said helplessly, "Can you please not mention the name Lu Ning? My name is also Lu Ning."
