Chapter 399: Chapter 399: Dramatic Hotel Encounter
After a few seconds of hesitation, she finally dialed the number.
Shu Manxi had just finished several dia interviews and was sitting backstage to rest.
Seeing the phone number blinking on the screen, she slightly frowned, looking puzzled.
Ning Yichu?
Why is she calling ?
Although they were from the sa school, their relationship was average. After leaving Dr. Chen, they hadn’t been in contact for ages…
It seems that people beco popular, and all sorts of ‘poor relatives’ co knocking.
Thinking of Ning Yichu’s excellent academic report and her current status as the best jade sculptor in the Imperial City.
Jealousy flashed briefly in Shu Manxi’s eyes, as she curled her lips and answered slowly.
“Ning Yichu? Why are you suddenly calling ?”
“Just wanted to chat with you.”
Ning Yichu’s expression was cold. “See when you have ti in the next couple of days, let’s et up.”
Shu Manxi raised her brow, her tone filled with a sense of bragging.
“Ning Yichu, haven’t you seen the news online? I’ve been really busy lately, with a fully packed schedule. I don’t have ti to et irrelevant people. If you have sothing to say, just say it over the phone!”
“Are you talking… about the Majesty doctor’s issue?”
Ning Yichu truly laughed, her lips curling playfully.
“Otherwise? I’m soone who prefers to keep a low profile, so I haven’t outright admitted my identity in front of the dia, but undeniably, I am Majesty, and have made so many outstanding achievents.”
Shu Manxi was smug, mocking, “Ning Yichu, you really are sothing, spending so long painstakingly studying with the teacher. I really thought you could make a na for yourself, but didn’t expect you’d end up in jade carving; might as well not waste that ti from the start.”
In the past, Ning Yichu always thought Shu Manxi was just more arrogant and proud than average people.
But now, she discovered another side… like being shaless!
In front of her, she actually dared to admit the identity of Majesty and claid those achievents as her own.
So, did she really work all those years for nothing?
Ning Yichu chuckled in disbelief, “Sister, you’re quite humorous.”
Then, she continued aningfully, “What’s true will remain true, what’s false will remain false, sothing picked up doesn’t an it’s yours, I advise you to conduct yourself well, lest you invite trouble upon yourself!”
Upon hearing this, Shu Manxi’s expression suddenly turned ugly, gripping her phone involuntarily.
What does Ning Yichu an by this?
What does she know?
Just as she was about to speak, there was a clink, and the call was hung up.
Shu Manxi’s mind beca chaotic, an inexplicable sense of panic arose in her heart.
“Sister Manxi, the surgery over there is still waiting…” the assistant cautiously reminded.
Upon hearing this, Shu Manxi finally snapped back, her eyes gathering a hint of coldness.
No matter what Ning Yichu knows, it cannot stop her steps…
She would seize this opportunity to prove herself well!
…
Ti flew by.
In the blink of an eye, it was already dusk.
“Hilton Hotel, Room 1408—”
Li Lingyang had just co out of a eting when he received this ssage from Ning Yichu, a shock reverberated in his chest.
His cold, stern face underwent slight changes, evoking strange emotions.
His steps paused, exuding an extrely strong oppressive aura, causing Special Assistant Xu, following behind, to shiver.
Li Lingyang directed coldly, “Tonight I have so matters to attend to, have soone pick up Doudou and Chengcheng.”
Special Assistant Xu imdiately complied.
Thinking about what was about to happen next, Li Lingyang allowed his lips to curl slightly, his deanor softer than usual, and walked briskly outside.
The passing junior employees were taken aback by the sight before them.
The usually ruthless and efficient President Li had a smile on his face…
This was simply unbelievable.
Before departing, Li Lingyang even took a mont to check his attire, confirming all was in order.
Driving all the way, at the fastest speed, he arrived at the Hilton Hotel.
Taking the elevator, he reached the fourteenth floor, stepping on the soft carpet, he stood at the entrance of the promised room.
The door was ajar, a gentle push opened it.
The air carried a faint sweet fragrance.
Heavy curtains blocked the outside light, while inside, faint candlelight flickered, rose petals scattered on the bed and carpet, the sound of rushing water coming from the bathroom heightened the ambiguity in the air.
Li Lingyang’s breath halted, a sudden dryness in his mouth, loosening his tie with his hand.
His blood boiled, casually removing his jacket.
A white shirt paired with straight black trousers, full of restraint.
He knew Chu Chu was doing this for the child, but he still couldn’t help but be moved, harboring expectations.
The sound of rushing water in the bathroom abruptly stopped.
The air grew increasingly hot, Li Lingyang walked over, standing at the door.
Deep emotions filled his dark eyes, his voice low and sensual.
“Chu Chu, you said you’d help today, I’m really glad; it at least proves I hold a place in your heart.”
“If the upcoming treatnt works, after I recover, let’s… remarry?”
As soon as the words fell, the bathroom door opened.
A stranger wrapped in a bathrobe stepped out, looking at him tensely.
“President Li, I… I’m not Lady Ning!”
His once expectant and tender feelings instantly froze into ice, solidifying.
Four eyes t, Li Lingyang imdiately understood, fury surged in his eyes, his face clouded with anger, fists clenched.
His voice harsh as the wind, “Where is Ning Yichu?!”
The woman trembled hard, overwheld by his powerful presence, her scalp almost exploding.
Instinctively, she glanced at the wall mirror in the room, trembling while replying, “President Li, Ning, Lady Ning had sothing urgent and couldn’t make it, she asked to help with your treatnt…”
Li Lingyang sharply noticed her gaze, following it to the large mirror.
This was actually a two-way mirror!
From behind the mirror, Ning Yichu could see what was happening with Li Lingyang, although sowhat shaful and not entirely upright, but what if sothing happened to him?
This actress was also found through Fan Yuke’s connections, a professional at filming flirtatious scenes, reportedly able to make many n’s blood pumped…
Li Lingyang soon realized there was soone hiding behind the mirror, his dark eyes turned sullen, with anger hardly subdued.
Ning Yichu not only had soone trying to seduce him, but actually dared to hide and secretly watch?!
He thought she at least had a trace of feelings for him, but never expected… it was just his imagination!
In her eyes, what did he count for?!!
Li Lingyang’s cold gaze rested on the mirror, sharp and fierce, was this what she really wanted to see, him with another woman?
The hotel room atmosphere was heavy.
