She and Luo Xinya knew each other very well and were well aware of each other’s secrets. If she were to expose Luo Xinya, the latter would definitely drag her down with her and implicate her as well.
“Don’t be too quick to turn me down. Consider it carefully. This is my number, give me a call once you’ve made up your mind.” She then handed Ou Lixue a piece of paper, on which her mobile number was written.
Luo Anning stared at her ambiguously and left together with Lu Momo.
…
Rong Yan returned to Luxury Mansion at night to see that Luo Anning had yet to come home.
Auntie Li rubbed her hands together uneasily and asked, “Young Master Rong, Young Madam may have gone out to meet her friends. Shall I give her a call to urge her to come home?”
Rong Yan did not say a single word and instead lowered his head to type on the keyboard of his laptop. Auntie Li could not figure out what he was thinking and hence, dared not call Luo Anning.
“Auntie Li, I’m home.” Luo Anning entered the living room listlessly, only to discover that Rong Yan was around too!
Auntie Li hurriedly scrambled towards her and said softly, “Young Madam, Young Master Rong has been waiting for you for a long time. Hurry and go say some nice things to him to help him simmer down.”
She wants me to coax Rong Yan. Is she out of her mind?
I’m being nice enough when I don’t provoke him. Yet, she still wants me to coax him? Forget it.
Upon hearing that she had returned, Rong Yan looked up and stared at her with dark and gloomy eyes. Feeling rather uneasy, Luo Anning asked, “Young Master Rong, why have you come home?”
As soon as she asked that question, Luo Anning wished she could slap herself. Why did I ask him that question? It’s his property, he obviously has the right to come home.
Seeing that he had a frown on his forehead, she smiled wryly and added, “Hehe… Young Master Rong, that’s not what I meant. I was trying to say… ”
“Let’s have dinner,” Rong Yan interrupted coldly. He then left her alone and walked towards the dining hall.
She glanced at Auntie Li who had expected better, and shot her a helpless glance before following Rong Yan into the dining hall.
There was a delectable spread of dishes on the dinner table. However, they were all dishes that Luo Anning preferred because Auntie Li did not know that Rong Yan would be coming home.
Rong Yan was a picky eater and there were plenty of foods that he did not eat, such as stale meat and vegetables.
Rong Yan did not once criticize the food or pick on them. Instead, he quietly disposed of the food that he did not eat, onto another plate that contained bones and food remnants.
There were more than ten dishes on the dining table but the picky Rong Yan stopped eating after helping himself to the dishes after just three or four times.
In the end, Luo Anning was left alone to enjoy the rest of the meal. Rong Yan put his chopsticks down and asked, “How did it feel to make use of me today?”
*Coughs*… *Coughs*… Luo Anning suddenly choked on her food and began coughing violently.
Rong Yan glared at her in disdain before patting her back reluctantly. Finally catching her breath, she asked carefully, “Do you already know about it?”
“Did you really think you could hide it from me?” Rong Yan sneered in contempt.
To the best of his knowledge, Luo Anning had never been a pushover. Besides, Ou Lixue was just a small fry and there was no need for her to get him to step in at all.
However, in reality, not only did she get him to go to her aid, she even made use of his identity to make things easier for herself.
He had no choice but to admit that Luo Anning was really good at using everything she could make use of around her.
Since he had already seen through her, Luo Anning decided to stop feigning ignorance. Instead, she smirked and asked, “Am I the first person who has ever made use of you? It feels great, actually. It gives me a sense of accomplishment.”
