When they were by the road outside the casino, Ye Xiaoxi said with reddened eyes, “Yining, thank you so much. I’ll definitely return the 800,000 yuan I borrowed from you.”
“Yes, I trust that you will.”
Although Jiang Yining said that, she didn’t expect Ye Xiaoxi to pay her back because she would have left A-City long before Ye Xiaoxi could pay her back.
The two of them might not even meet again.
Ye Xiaoxi still had a lot to say but when the words reached the tip of her tongue, she felt that they would sound insincere, so she held back.
Jiang Yining caught a glimpse of a figure and said to Ye Xiaoxi, “Go home first. 1 need to do something.”
“Yining, what are you going to do? Will there be any danger?”
Ye Xiaoxi was worried that He Ming and his people would take revenge on her.
After all, Yining had slapped their faces so hard that they were humiliated in front of so many people!
“I’m just going to buy something. Don’t worry. No one can hurt me.” Jiang Yining smiled confidently.
Ye Xiaoxi thought about her abilities and realized that she indeed possessed the skills to protect herself.
So, she left her alone.
When Ye Xiaoxi’s bus arrived, she hopped on.
Jiang Yining waited for the bus to drive away before her expression turned cold. “Come out. You’ve been sneaking around behind me. Have you not learned your lesson?”
She had no plans to let the casino people off.
But she didn’t expect them to seek death so quickly and even sent someone to follow her.
“Don’t be nervous, it’s me.” The handsome man walked out from the shadows and said calmly.

“I think you’re not bad and I want to be friends with you.”
Jiang Yining’s lips twitched as she said, “What a cliche!”
“Cliche or not, as long as it works.” The man extended his hand like a gentleman and said, “Let me formally introduce myself. My name is Huo Tingchen. ‘Ting’ as in thunder and ‘Chen’ like the gem. I’m a small businessman.”
Jiang Yining stood with her head held high and eyes as proud as sunflowers. She had no intention of shaking hands with him.
Huo Tingchen waited for a while, but Jiang Yining didn’t move.
He took a step forward and held her hand forcefully. “Okay, we’re friends now.”
“How dare you!”
Jiang Yining was so angry that she wanted to break free from his hand.
However, she did not expect him to let her go before she did anything.
“What a fiery temper… But 1 like it.”
Jiang Yining couldn’t be bothered to continue chatting with a lunatic and turned to leave.
Huo Tingchen followed her and said, “The casino people won’t let you off easily. Let me send you home. At least 1 can protect you.”
“If I were afraid of them, I wouldn’t have stood up to them.” Jiang Yining said coldly.
Huo Tingchen’s interest in her grew.
Jiang Yining walked to the roadside and flagged down a taxi. She then turned her head and warned him, “Stop following me, or I’ll call the police.”
“Go ahead. This road doesn’t belong to your family. Why can’t I walk on it?”
Jiang Yining was so annoyed that she simply bent down and got into the taxi.
Huo Tingchen took out a thousand yuan and handed it to the taxi driver. “I’ll charter your taxi.”
The taxi driver understood what he meant. He immediately took the money and said to Jiang Yining, “I’m sorry, Miss. 1 won’t be driving you home tonight.” “I got in first! If he can give you a thousand, so can I.”
“Then you pay me first, and I’ll drive you home.”
Jiang Yining took out her wallet and realized that she had only two hundred yuan.
“… I’ll pay you when I get home.”
“No.” The driver wasn’t stupid. He knew that this two were just acting out of spite, which was why he paid him so much. Who knew if she would pay him that much after he sent her home? “Please get out of my taxi.”
Jiang Yining sat in the taxi without moving.
Huo Tingchen was not in a hurry either. He walked somewhere and drove his car over. “Come on, I’ll send you home.”
“Miss, your boyfriend is coaxing you so patiently… Just go with him.” The driver happily persuaded her while holding the stack of 100-yuan notes.
“He’s not my boyfriend,” Jiang Yining retorted.
The driver shook his head, not believing her.
From the looks of it, this two people knew each other. If they were not a couple, why would this man be so generous?
After persisting a little longer, Jiang Yining got out of the taxi, walked to Huo Tingchen’s car, and opened the door.
She sat in the backseat.
“Why did you suddenly come around?” Huo Tingchen asked as he started the car.
He thought that she would stubbornly look for another taxi.
“If I get another taxi, you’ll use the same trick again, and I still won’t be able to win. This place is so far from my house, and it’s impossible to walk back. Continuing to be in a deadlock with you will only be a waste of time. I want to go home as soon as possible, that’s all.” Jiang Yining had always been flexible and would never be stupidly stubborn.
Huo Tingchen smiled and asked softly, “Aren’t you also not familiar with me? Aren’t you afraid that I’ll do something to you?”
“Go ahead and try.”
Jiang Yining crossed her arms, leaned back into the seat and closed her eyes to rest.
She didn’t seem wary of him at all.
Huo Tingchen looked at her through the rearview mirror and said, “You’re different from most girls.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Yeah, I think so too.”
Jiang Yining accepted his compliment and told him her home address.
Huo Tingchen smiled again and sped up.
About an hour later, he stopped the car.
Huo Tingchen looked at the mansion in front of him and his eyes turned dark red. “Isn’t this the Lu residence? What’s your relationship with Lu Zhi?”
“How do you know this is where he lives?” Jiang Yining paused as she sat up.
“Which businessman doesn’t want to curry favor with him?” Huo Tingchen replied. “I’m also an ordinary businessman so naturally I’d like to get to know him. I’ve asked someone to find out where he lives. I’m looking for a chance to meet him. Unfortunately, I still haven’t gotten my wish after so long.”
“I don’t think that you are an ordinary businessman.”
She saw it very clearly.
He Ming was a little afraid of him. A person who was able to make the person-in-charge of such a big place feel fear was not an ordinary person.
“I’m probably not ordinary compared to most ordinary people. But compared to Lu Zhi, I am nobody.” Huo Tingchen reverted to the previous topic, “You haven’t told me what your relationship with him is.”
“Oh, why should I tell you?” Jiang Yining asked coldly.
Huo Tingchen chuckled when he heard that. “That’s true.”
Jiang Yining ignored him, opened the car door, and got out.
Huo Tingchen followed suit.
At this moment, a black Maserati stopped beside them.
Then, Lu Zhi, who had a cold expression on his face, got out of the car.
He looked at Huo Tingchen briefly, then at Jiang Yining and beckoned her over. “Come here.”
Why did he say these two words so fluently?
Every time she heard him say “come here”, she felt like she was his pet.
Jiang Yining silently criticized Lu Zhi, but still walked up to him.
Lu Zhi hugged her at the waist and asked in a deep voice, “Who is he?”
