Chapter 169 - Lu Shaoming, Him
Chapter 169: Lu Shaoming, Him
Ning Qing looked at the woman before her. She was the daughter of a wealthy family. She was arrogant and haughty, and was great pals with Ning Yao. She would normally say many bad things about her.
“Qingqing.” Mu Yunfan saw someone come towards her and took a slight step forward, protecting Ning Qing by standing in front of her.
“Older Brother Yunfan.” As Mu Yunfan was about speak, Ning Qing pushed him away gently, and she took two steps forward to stand in front of the daughter of a rich family.
She did not need protection, and Ning Qing could handle the situation with ease and expertise.
She had a few glasses of red wine a while ago. There were two red patches on Ning Qing’s exquisite face. She was almost half drunk, and she lifted her eyebrows lightly while she glanced at the daughter of a wealthy family displeased, and her red lips paired with her attractive teeth. “This Miss here, you said that I murdered Ning Yao. Who told you so?”
This aroused everyone’s attention. The daughter of a wealthy family was satisfied at this and continued, “Ning Qing, you have killed someone, both with material evidence and eyewitnesses around. The police force have already locked you into a cell. How am I not speaking the truth?”
“That’s right. I really did not think that Ning Qing would be such a cruel person. She is the best actress of this generation, this is really too unexpected…” Everyone pointed their fingers towards Ning Qing and their gazes were unkind.
“Heh.” Ning Qing squinted her eyes as she slowly scanned the crowd in the large lounge. She gently snorted, “Since the police have locked me inside the police station, how could I still be standing right here now? That shows that the police force has proven my innocence, and I was only assisting in their investigations. This Miss here, you are interpreting the situation out of its context. Are you planning on ruining my reputation or trying to interrupt the police force in their investigations? If there is anyone present here who has solid evidence that I am the actual murderer, then I can suggest that they should make a call to the police, and everyone here can accompany me to make a trip down to the police station!”
Ning Qing’s last words, “make a trip down” were clear and definite. She was purposely saying this to let everyone present on scene hear. Everyone accepted her chilling and threatening gaze, and they all shut their mouths.
This girl had been taking a break from the entertainment industry for too long. She was gone so long that everyone forget how good she was so proficient in her words when she faced a crowd; they forgot that she had single handedly beaten the attention seeker Li Meiling.
Her aura on her body did not even change a little.
The daughter of a wealthy family saw that Ning Qing had the upper hand in this situation and was not flustered. Calmly and slowly, she said, “That’s right, Ning Yao’s murderer will eventually be revealed. Only to say, Ning Qing, you are really so capable. You personally sent Li Meiling to jail, and now Ning Yao died with a child in her belly. The mother and daughter duo did commit many frightening, hair raising acts, but they have all ended with such pathetic outcomes. Ay, they are really so unlucky. The two of them added together don’t even amount to one of your fingers. Ning Qing, you are so cold blooded.”
These words were what the crowd felt in their hearts. No matter what Li Meiling and Ning Yao had done beforehand, Li Meiling was in prison now, and Ning Yao met a pitiful death. They have made others pity them terribly.
In retrospect Ning Qing, who was in a bad state, used these matters to turn her fortune around and was delighted with how things were playing out. How could others not help but feel emotional?
Ning Qing had used many methods in her battles, and now she became “cold blooded” in other’s perception.
“Heh, what a joke!” Ning Qing laughed coldly, and her sharp gaze scanned through everyone present at the scene like a knife. “You also knew that Li Meiling and Ning Yao did many hair raising things? Since they have made mistakes and gone down the wrong path, they have reaped the fruits of their dirty labor!
“What would you want me to have done? If I had known beforehand that Li Meiling would end up in prison half a year ago, then should I have said, ‘Oh, alright then, I am making a concession based on the fact that you would end up in prison; you can happily harm both me and my mum then?’ If I knew that Ning Yao would die, did I have the responsibility to arrest that murderer to say, ‘Don’t kill her, if you want to kill her, kill me then?’
“Can we take responsibility for other people’s lives? Can you do so? Could you do that? If you all cannot do this, then can you really hold those lofty moral standards against me?
“If you really pity Ning Yao, then please cooperate with the police force to catch the murderer. Don’t come together to stir the pot out of sheer boredom!”
The crowd: “…” They had been criticized and were at a loss for words.
Ning Qing was really glib with her words!
The daughter of the wealthy family held her hands tightly together in a fist. She was not satisfied that she could not humiliate Ning Qing. Even though she had such a good chance to put her down, she was totally unable to fulfil the desires of her own jealous heart.
The daughter of the wealthy family laughed mockingly and said,”Ning Qing, you can only be glib with your tongue right now. I saw Young Master Lu has brought along a beautiful woman with him just now; does Young Master Lu not want you anymore?”
This scandalous exposition made everyone’s eyes brighten up. The entertainment industry had been quiet for such a long time in Ning Qing’s absence.
Even the current happenings have been single handedly covered up.
Ning Qing looked at everyone’s excited gazes. She tucked her hair behind her ear. She channelled her attractive, supple eyes downwards and looked at the wealthy daughter from above as she laughed and said, “Yo, you have been very interested with mine and Lu Shaoming’s status. What is going on? Have you liked Lu Shaoming for very long? It is such a pity. Lu Shaoming has already been used by me, Ning Qing. Who is that beautiful woman? She could only pick up what I have played with, hehe.”
After she spoke, Ning Qing lifted her heels and walked out of the large banquet hall.
The crowd saw the disappearing figure and they all looked stoked. They put their thumbs up and commented, “Ning Qing is so cool!”
The wealthy daughter was furious beyond words. She was so so angry!
…
After exiting the banquet hall, a familiar person came up to her — Xu Junxi.
Xu Junxi had just got out of the car. He was dressed in a white suit. The wound in his chest from yesterday’s stabbing made his face pale white. He lost his normal stubbornness in his heart. After experiencing Ning Yao’s death, he had the same gentleness in his eyes that he had 3 years ago when he looked at Ning Qing. It was a gentleness with a touch of shyness.
Ning Qing stopped in her tracks.
“Qingqing.” Mu Yunfan came over to cup her small shoulders, and he chose to ignore Xu Junxi. He said, “Let’s go back then.”
“Okay.” Ning Qing nodded her head.
The two of them brushed past Xu Junxi and Ning Qing’s wrist was locked on by someone, and she heard Xu Junxi ask, “Ning Qing, where are you going? Are you leaving with Mu Yunfan?”
Ning Qing did not answer. Mu Yunfan’s expression became sharp. He was focused on his battle with Lu Shaoming; he had forgotten about this Xu Junxi, this irksome being whose presence he did not welcome.
“Junxi, let go. Young Master Lu wants to divorce Qingqing. Qingqing is very upset, and I will be accompanying her always.” Mu Yunfan said.
Xu Junxi turned his head around, and he looked at Ning Qing’s palm sized face hidden behind her large, beautiful curls, and he said gently, “Ning Qing, it doesn’t have to be Mu Yunfan. I can fill that role.”
He could also always accompany her.
Mu Yunfan’s breathing was heavy, and when he was at a loss for a response, Ning Qing snatched the opportunity to speak first. “President Xu, I am sorry.”
She slowly shook off his hand.
Mu Yunfan withdrew back his eerie glare, glanced at Xu Junxi, and brought Ning Qing to depart.
Xu Junxi looked at the both of them boarding the car and then disappear before his eyes. His large palm that was always by his side slowly spread out. Ning Qing had given him a note.
…
At the villa, Mu Yunfan walked out of the room and into the living room. He quickly wiped the smile off his face, and it made his entire being seem eerie and cunning.
“Find this woman for me!” he ordered Butler Zhou.
“Yes, Young Master.” Butler Zhou turned around.
“Wait a moment. There is no need for that anymore.” Mu Yunfan stood up suddenly, ascended the stairs, and entered his own room.
After entering the study, he lightly knocked on the wall 3 times, and the wall opened up with a bang, revealing a secret room inside.
He walked inside.
The secret room was a brightly lit room and there was a woman lying on the big bed. She was the woman who resembled Ning Qing greatly.
The woman was dressed in a red nightgown, and when she saw Mu Yunfan come, she quickly stood up to welcome him and said sweetly, “Young Master.”
Mu Yunfan’s gaze darkened and he said, “What did you call me?”
The woman knew that she had made a mistake. She immediately stopped acting coy and put on the act to resemble Ning Qing to a great extent, and she said, “Older Brother Yunfan.”
