Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Sun Luy blinked and rubbed her eyes. When she peered over, she spotted a tall man standing behind Lu Ning, who looked to be in his forties.
At this moment, he was scowling at her.
However, when he lowered his head to speak to Lu Ning, his eyes were gentle.
“Ning’ning, did they displease you?”
Lu Ning did not know him, but she was very good at judging the situation.
“Yes.”
Lu Ning nodded. “Are you feeling upset?”
Lu Ning nodded.
“Which one of them made you upset?”
He comported himself with the gravitas of someone superior; Sun Luy was suddenly afraid, and her legs trembled.
Lu Ning raised her hand and pointed towards her.
Sun Luy’s eyes were filled with fear; she frantically rushed out. “I’m sorry, Miss Lu, I was wrong! I’m sorry, I spoke nonsense just now, I don’t know what I was saying. Please be magnanimous and don’t lower yourself to my level. I was wrong! Please don’t be upset. I’ll apologize. I’ll apologize to you! I’m sorry, I’m sorry!”
In desperation she grabbed Lu Ning’s arm, as if she was grabbing at her last strand of hope.
Lu Ning looked at her harshly. “You’re hurting me.”
Hearing this, the man beside her pushed Sun Luy away.
Sun Luy wanted to step forward, but she was immediately restrained. The man snapped his fingers, and the general manager appeared within mere moments.
“Have her sacked.”
The general manager beside him nodded.
“Ning’ning, let’s go. You must have been startled; Uncle will get you something to calm down.”
Lu Ning nodded, then stopped after taking a couple of steps. She turned to look at the young woman standing behind the front desk in a daze.
“I like her.”
The man beside her followed her gaze.
The young woman was stunned. Lu Ning tilted her head and looked at her nametag.
“Wei Qingqing.”
The man turned towards the general manager. “Let her take over that person’s position.”
The general manager nodded.
As they disappeared from sight, Wei Qingqing was still in a stupor.
What? Have I… been promoted?
And on the spot?!
She absentmindedly looked towards the direction where Lu Ning had left.
After they entered the private room, Lu Ning was formally introduced to the man in front of her.
“Ning’ning, this is Uncle Jiang, he’s Daddy’s friend. This restaurant belongs to
Uncle Jiang.”
Lu Ning nodded. “Nice to meet you, Uncle Jiang. Thank you for before.”
Jiang Yu looked at Lu Ning and smiled warmly. “No at all, Uncle Jiang has you to thank. It’ll be a lot of trouble if someone like that were to remain. You’ve helped Uncle Jiang get rid of a thorn in my side.”
After Lu Ning had moved in, Shen Yunci and Lu Zhi complimented her for being thick-skinned. She did not feel embarrassed when Jiang Yu praised her like this, and she even raised a cup of tea to toast Jiang Yu.
After that, Lu Ning and Lu Jingzhi simply ate happily while it was time for the adults to talk business.
The food here was truly delicious. In Lu Ning’s heart, it was second only to Sixth Brother’s.
While eating, she spoke with Lu Jingzhi about going to the capital.
The meal was quite an enjoyable one.
Before leaving, Jiang Yu even exchanged contact information with Lu Ning.
He would be staying in A City for a while, and they might meet often.
After bidding farewell to Jiang Yu, the family strolled home.
“Dad, Mom, have you known Uncle Jiang for a long time?”
The two of them nodded. “We knew each other even before your big brother was born.”
Lu Ning nodded.
Although this was the first time she met Jiang Yu, this person was decent and carried himself with a charm befitting his age. He was calm and spoke with sincerity, so Lu Ning thought that he was someone she could befriend. The length of time Lu Zhi and Shen Yunci had known him was also a testament to his character.
However, at the same time, Lu Ning felt that he was unfathomable…
