Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In a private room, Jiang Ling’er and Li Yu were enjoying so delicacies.
Li Yu asked, “Ling’er, do you know anything about Su Qi’s background?”
Jiang Ling’er paused for a mont and replied, “1 don’t know, and there’s no need to inquire. We might not see each other again in the future.”
Li Yu chuckled and said, “Su Qi is the nephew of our Deputy Mayor. As for Qiu Yang, he’s the son of the renowned real estate tycoon, Qiu Ji.”
Jiang Ling’er exclaid, “Wow, their backgrounds are quite impressive. But why did you investigate them?”
Li Yu said, “I was afraid they might deceive you.”
Li Yu pretended to be relaxed, but in reality, he felt nervous seeing such outstanding young n beside Jiang Ling’er.
Jiang Ling’er hesitated for a mont and then smiled, “Do you think that’s possible?”
Li Yu affectionately said, “It’s not possible, but I’m still afraid.”
Jiang Ling’er fell silent for a mont and asked, “Afraid of what?”
Li Yu ambiguously replied, “I’m afraid they might compete with for you.”
Seeing Li Yu’s doting smile, Jiang Ling’er actually felt a little guilty. Since things had already co to this, how could she not know what Li Yu ant? If she didn’t know, she would be a fool.
Jiang Ling’er thought for a mont and said, “The two of them don’t act, so it’s impossible for them to compete with you.”
Li Yu chuckled, finding Jiang Ling’er quite sharp and clever. She had quickly changed the topic to work.
Li Yu furrowed his brow and said, “If they compete with for you professionally, I’m not worried at all.”
Confused, Jiang Ling’er looked at Li Yu, wondering why he wasn’t concerned about professional competition.
Li Yu explained seriously, “What I’m afraid of is that they might pursue you romantically too.”
Jiang Ling’er was utterly shocked by this. Did she hear him correctly?
Li Yu, now a bit flustered, regained his composure and asked, “Ling’er, can you be my girlfriend?”
Jiang Ling’er felt completely overwheld by the situation. Did Li Yu just propose?
Feeling as though she had been immobilized, Jiang Ling’er couldn’t move. After a mont, she stamred, “Don’t joke around. I have an engagent with your nephew, you know.”
Li Yu was becoming increasingly frustrated. He furrowed his brow and said, “Haven’t you already prepared to annul the engagent?”
Jiang Ling’er looked at Li Yu’s disappointed expression and sighed deeply. She replied, “The engagent must be annulled, but even so, your grandfather would never agree to you marrying .”
Li Yu squinted his eyes and said, “You never know until you try, right?”
Jiang Ling’er smiled and said, “We don’t need to try; we’re not a suitable match.”
Li Yu frowned, feeling a mixture of embarrassnt and disappointnt.
Li Yu remarked, “You’re still so straightforward; you’re ruthless, you know that?”
Hearing Li Yu express his unhappiness and a touch of complaint, Jiang Ling’er couldn’t help but feel a bit exasperated.
Jiang Ling’er replied, “I can’t give you false hope, and besides, I’m not the kind of person who’s overly kind or naive. I don’t like that kind of persona.”
Li Yu huffed inwardly, determined not to be easily dismissed. He asked, “1 understand your perspective now. You’ve got feelings for soone else, right?”
Jiang Ling’er responded, “Not at the mont.”
It was the truth. Jiang Ling’er didn’t want to casually involve soone else just to fend off Li Yu.
Li Yu continued, “But there is soone you’re fond of, isn’t there?”
Jiang Ling’er shook her head. Regardless of whether it was before or after entering the novel, there wasn’t anyone.
Seeing Jiang Ling’er’s expression, Li Yu’s mood lightened considerably.
He remarked, “Those two guys you were with during the day seed to get along well with you.”
Jiang Ling’er glanced at Li Yu and replied, “We were just having a al together.”
Right after saying this, Jiang Ling’er suddenly realized that sothing wasn’t quite right. Why was she explaining things to Li Yu?
Li Yu asked, “Do you dislike ?”
He posed the question cautiously, as if fearing that Jiang Ling’er might slap him in response.
Jiang Ling’er looked at Li Yu with confusion and said, “No, why would you think that?”
Li Yu let out a sigh of relief and said with a smile, “As long as you don’t dislike , it’s all good.”
After their al, Li Yu escorted Jiang Ling’er back ho.
As soon as Jiang Ling’er entered her room, Wen Nuan, who had been playing with her phone, rushed out in shock. Seeing Jiang Ling’er return so quickly, Wen Nuan was thoroughly surprised.
Wen Nuan said, “Ling’er, you… you ca back so soon?”
Was this date on a tight schedule?
Jiang Ling’er smiled and replied, “We just had a al together.. How long do you think it should take?”
