An Ningâs actions puzzled Li Sijin.
Even if they couldnât be lovers, they could still be friends.
Besides, she and Brother Lin were about to leave. They should act at least act civil.
âSister An Ning is too much. We didnât do anything to her, but she hasnât bothered with us for two days in a row.â Li Sijin was a little sad. She didnât want to lose Aiming as a friend.
âIn reality, Sister An Ning did have time during dinner yesterday, but she didnât eat with us.â
âShe had her own plans. Canât you see that thereâs someone else by her side?â
At that moment, the man beside Li Sijin was the blind date that his family had introduced to her. His name was Cui Minghang, and he worked in the highway department.
His father, Cui Jianhui, was the head of the districtâs transportation department and held a lot of weight.
However, this time, An Ning did not come with the Cui father and son. Instead, she came for a meeting on behalf of Chen Shi and coincidentally bumped into him there.
âHowâs Ningning?â
Cui Minghang said with a straight face. At the same time, he noticed Lin Yi and Li Sijin.
He knew that An Ning had an ex-boyfriend, so he misunderstood him for Lin Yi.
âItâs alright, letâs go in for a meeting first,â An Ning said with her head lowered.
âWe still have to wait for a while before the event starts. Thereâs no hurry to go in.â Cui Minghang said.
âWe just happened to meet. Letâs go over and make things clear with him.â
âMake what clear?â
âYouâre my girlfriend now. 1 donât want him to appear in front of us again.â
âWho said Iâm your girlfriend?â An Ning said. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWe just met. We havenât established our relationship yet. Also, this is my own matter. Donât interfere.â
âWhat do you mean?â Cui Minghang said.
âI drive you to and from work every day. Isnât our relationship established enough?â
âOf course not. Donât confuse this matter,â An Ning said.
âWhat the hell are you thinking?â
Enraged, Cui Minghang grabbed An Ningâs arm and hollered, âAre you playing with me?!â
âWhat are you doing? Let go of me!â
An Ning tried to break free from his restraints, but she was not as strong as him.
âBrother Lin, Brother Lin!â Li Sijin grabbed Lin Yiâs arm. âThat man is bullying Sister An Ning!â
Lin Yi turned around and frowned.
âWhat are you doing?â
Lin Yiâs voice made many people look over, not knowing what had happened.
âItâs none of your business!â
Seeing Lin Yi walking over, Cui Minghang became even angrier. âIâm going to sue you. An Ning is my girlfriend now. Stay away from now on and donât appear in front of me.â
âDonât spout nonsense!â An Ning said, â1 havenât agreed to it yet!â
âYou guys are really in trouble!â
Because this was a public place, Cui Minghang swallowed his anger. Otherwise, he would have fought with Lin Yi.
âNo matter what, An Ning is my friend. Itâs not right for you to treat her like this,â Lin Yi said softly.
âFriend?â Cui Minghang sneered. âThen donât meddle in other peopleâs business. Sheâs my girlfriend now. I can do whatever I want. This has nothing to do with you!â
Whack!
Lin Yi raised his hand and slapped Cui Minghangâs face.
âWho the f*ck spoiled you? How dare you talk to me like that?â
Cui Minghang covered his face, obviously stunned by Lin Yiâs slap.
The surrounding politicians were also very surprised. There was actually someone arguing in such a serious meeting.
âHow dare you hit me?!â Cui Minghang said coldly, âDo you believe that Iâll get someone to fire you?â
âDo you believe that 1 can kill you?â
Lin Yi looked down at Cui Minghang from above. Waves of coldness seeped out from his body and engulfed Cui Minghang, scaring him until he shivered!
Instinctively, he turned to look at An Ning.
âAre you still watching at a time like this?!â
âThis is between us. Itâs none of your business!â
âYou!â
Cui Minghang was so angry that he could only glare. He felt extremely embarrassed.
âAn Ning, youâve gone too far!â
Cui Minghang huffed angrily and turned to leave.
âSister An Ning.â
Li Sijin jogged over and held her arm. She wanted to beat Cui Minghang up too. How dare he bully her like this?
âThat man isnât good. Look for someone else.â
Lin Yi shook his head and walked into the venue.
An Ningâs heart skipped a beat, especially when Lin Yi shook his head in disappointment.
âSister An Ning, everything was fine. Why were you looking for a boyfriend?â Li Sijin asked.
âBesides, you didnât even tell us. We could have helped you.â
âMy family arranged it for me, so I wanted to get to know him first. Iâm already so old. I canât stay single forever.â
âBut that person is indeed not good. He actually touched you. Heâs scum!â
âAlright, letâs not talk about him anymore. I donât want anything to do with him anyway.â
The reason why she agreed to the blind date was to cut off her feelings for Lin Yi.
However, Lin Yiâs final shake of his head and disappointed gaze made her defense collapse in an instant.
If possible, she didnât even want to join the meeting. She just wanted to go home.
âSister An Ning, letâs go. The meeting is about to start. Letâs go in first.â
An Ning nodded. âGo join Lin Yi. Iâm fine.â
âIâm okay.â Li Sijin said,
âBrother Lin asked me to come over because he wanted me to take notes. As long as I record the important details, it doesnât matter where I go.â
âAlright, then letâs go in together.â
The two of them entered the venue. The chairs in front had names written on them, and the ones behind were free-sitting.
The two of them silently found a seat in the back row. This location also made it convenient for them to slack off if they pleased.
However, An Ning was distracted. She subconsciously looked around but did not see Lin Yi.
âLittle Ning, whatâs going on?â
The two of them had just sat down when they realized that a middle-aged man was standing beside them. He was wearing a uniform and was looking down at them. Cui Minghang was also beside him.
The middle-aged man was Cui Minghangâs father, Cui Jianhui. After learning what had happened outside, he came over to ask what was going on.
âNothing. He had a bit of a run-in with my friend. Itâs all over now.â
âA friend of yours?â
Cui Jianhui looked displeased. âNo matter what, the two of you have established a relationship. Itâs not right for you to play these tricks.â
âUncle, we havenât confirmed our relationship, and 1 didnât ask him to pick me up every day. I havenât agreed to this yet.â
âWhen my wife introduced you to me, I thought you were a good girl. I didnât expect you to be like this. It seems 1 need to have a serious talk with your uncle about this.â
An Ning didnât respond. At this point, she didnât want to say anything more.
âAlso, I want to let you know that i have some knowledge about your uncle and that manâs situation.. Whether they can keep their jobs is now in question!â
