674 Target
Chu Ning knew that people would no longer believe her if she said that she had come with Yan Shen. After all, Su Ming had already made a huge commotion when he came to chat with her earlier. Right now, she was nothing in the eyes of these people.
Perhaps they even thought that Su Ming would only talk to her because she was related to him or because she was using her body to seduce him.
Chu Ning’s smile became even more formal. “Young Master Liu, you flatter me. I coincidentally chatted with Mr. Su Kun at his banquet. I didn’t expect Mr. Su Kun to really remember a small fry like me.”
...Chu Ning deliberately emphasized the word ‘coincidentally’. However, when she saw Liu Hai’s expression suddenly become unnatural before quickly resuming his devil-may-care look, she knew that this Liu Hai was definitely not what the news and information showed.
She had only hinted vaguely that she had not been invited by Su Ming and had left her name with Su Kun, and Liu Hai’s expression had changed because of that. He had surely been preparing to target her. He might not be afraid of Su Ming, but he definitely did not dare to gamble on Su Kun’s anger.
Chu Ning sneered and lamented to herself, “Mr. Su Kun’s name is really useful. Thank you, Mr. Su Kun; a magnanimous person like him would probably not care about such trivial matters.”
Liu Hai laughed out loud, and his voice booming when he spoke again. “So Mr. Su Kun has taken a shine to Ms. Chu Ning. That’s really a blessing.”
Liu Hai’s eyes flashed. “Zhou Wei, we have to quickly build a good relationship with Ms. Chu Ning. When Mr. Su Kun is promoting Ms. Chu, maybe Ms. Chu can give us a hand?”
Zhou Wei also sensed that something was wrong. Although he was not as sharp as Chu Ning, and this malice was not aimed at him, he did not say anything. If she could not even handle such a simple verbal test, then there was no need for him to continue collaborating with Chu Ning.
Sure enough, Chu Ning did not directly retort, but she also gave Liu Hai a warning. He did not expect Liu Hai to react so quickly and drag him down together.
Zhou Wei glanced at Liu Hai from the corner of his eye and realized that this guy’s acting skills were really not bad. He reckoned that he was so deeply rooted in his wealthy origins that he couldn’t separate himself from it. However, since Liu Hai dared to implicate him, he could not blame him for not being polite. “If she caught Mr. Su Kun’s attention because she’s from his hometown, there’s nothing to say. If Mr. Su really remembered her, would she still be able to take advantage of the Yan family’s invitation?”
Although Zhou Wei had good intentions and could shut the other party’s mouth, what he said was not pleasant to hear. No wonder he had been ‘exiled’. He must have offended the Zhou family with such words!
Chu Ning glared at Zhou Wei fiercely and decided to give him a book on the art of speaking when she got back.
Liu Hai probably did not expect Zhou Wei to say that. His expression turned blank for a moment.
He thought that Zhou Wei and Chu Ning were in cahoots, so he wanted to drag Zhou Wei into this. He did not expect that, after Zhou Wei said this, the gazes that he had attracted earlier had already withdrawn themselves.
Seeing the change in his expression, Zhou Wei and Chu Ning openly clinked glasses and smiled at each other in front of him.
Chu Ning smiled and said, “Young Master Liu, Young Master Zhou, I won’t accompany you anymore. Enjoy your chat.”
After saying that, Chu Ning turned around and left. She glimpsed that Yan Shen was being pestered by someone in the distance, and quickly walked over.
Yan Shen was dealing with the chatterbox in front of him. He could not help but wonder what Chu Ning was doing. Suddenly, a soft touch wrapped around his arm. Yan Shen was so startled that he quivered. Just as he was about to pull his arm away, he heard a familiar voice from the side.
Chu Ning quietly held Yan Shen’s arm and kept muttering in her head, “I’m doing this to save you from your misery, not to covet your beauty. Yan Shen, don’t lose your temper at me.”
As soon as Chu Ning took his arm, she felt Yan Shen shudder. Before she could laugh, she felt that Yan Shen was about to pull his arm away. Chu Ning hastily said, “Yan Shen, I’ve seen my big brother over there. Come on, accompany me there.”
