Chapter 221 Heartbeat
Chapter 221 Heartbeat
Jiang Jingting soon discovered something was wrong. He received information that Prince Wen Jiu, Guan Baizhi and the He brothers had been looking for someone. Could it be that Ningyi was not there?
He asked Ye Zhen, but he was on guard against him and didn't tell the truth.
He asked the Ye couple, but they didn't know.
That day, he and the Duan Junlin brothers were waiting at the door of Villa No. 208.
"You're here." Lou Hui was very happy to see Jiang Jingting coming and having an extra companion. He asked with concern, "Is everything going on at home?"
"It's okay." Jiang Jingting's expression was indifferent. "During the time I was away, no one came out?"
"Yes." Lou Hui's face fell, "They should have used a formation device to teleport out."
Jiang Jingting asked what was in his heart: "Could Ningyi not be in there?"
Duan Junlin, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up: "But there have always been people living in it."
Jiang Jingting firmly believed in his guess: "That may not be Ningyi, Ye Zhen lives inside."
At this time, a small hovercraft stopped by the roadside and a young woman got out of the car.
She was wearing a goose yellow fairy dress and had an ordinary appearance, but she had a pair of particularly beautiful eyes.
Lou Hui stood up suddenly and walked quickly to Duan Junlin, away from the woman.
Jiang Jingting looked at her and then looked away instantly.
He always remembers that he is a married man and cannot look at other strange women for too long. A good man should know how to avoid suspicion.
Xiaoyu secretly looked at Jiang Jingting. She had never seen him before. Could he also be Luo Ningyi's lover?
She was a little curious: "Xiao Hui, who is he?"
Xiaoyu didn't bring any more food, not because she didn't want to, but because she didn't have enough ingredients. They were all ordinary ingredients that she couldn't offer.
I didn't expect Luo Mingcheng to be so useless. When I asked him to buy more energy ingredients, he cried poor.
Luo Mingcheng did not lie. The company had been in a downturn in recent years and had made little money. Purchasing this villa would almost empty his family's assets. How could he have the money to buy energy food ingredients?
Lou Hui's tone was a little irritable, "Ms. Jiang, I told you not to call me Xiao Hui. Who he is is none of your business?"
Xiaoyu's eyes instantly turned red, "Lou Hui, do you have any opinion about me?"
Jiang Jingting felt a little embarrassed, but he didn't want to introduce himself to a strange woman. Since she didn't ask him anyway, he just pretended he didn't know.
This was not the first time that Lou Hui had been harassed by women. He was already very adept at dealing with these matters and could simply refuse them directly.
Since he doesn't like her, there's no need to think about her. Lou Hui said fiercely: "No problem, if you want to ask him, just ask him directly. He's right in front of you, do you need to beat around the bush and ask me?"
Originally, Lou Hui didn't want to pay attention to Xiaoyu, but she always found ways to make him talk. She must be interested in him. Humph, he wouldn't be fooled.
Jiang Xiaoyu was so angry that she bit her lip and stomped her feet. Lou Hui was so irritating. If Duan Junlin hadn't ignored her, she would never have come to Lou Hui to curry his favor.
But I don't know what's wrong with Lou Hui. He has no sympathy for women at all. His tone is cold. He stays away from her as if she is a dirty thing.
Now the two brothers don’t come back to sleep at night, they just keep guarding the door without any rest.
Seeing Xiaoyu walking towards him, Jiang Jingting became a little nervous and was ready to stay away from her at any time. Fortunately, she knew her limits and didn't get too close.
Xiaoyu just wanted to find someone to chat with. Knowing that he seemed a little nervous, she chuckled and said, "Are you here to see Ningyi too?"
Jiang Jingting didn't look up and just hummed softly.
Xiaoyu seemed a little shocked: "Do you all like Ningyi?"
Jiang Jingting did not refute.
"I'm Ningyi's stepmother, but I've never met her. I'm really curious."
Xiaoyu said this and went forward to press the doorbell.
"Why are you all at the door? Doesn't she let you in?"
In fact, Xiaoyu was also a little nervous. What if Luo Ningyi really came out, how should she start?
Xiaoyu was jealous of Luo Ningyi. There was such a good man chasing her, but she ignored him and even refused to come out to see him. She was so heartless.
Xiaoyu felt sorry for Duan Junlin, but she didn't say much, and didn't even dare to talk to him. She just accompanied him silently.
Lou Hui watched Xiaoyu's operation with some anticipation. What if Ningyi saw that the other party was her stepmother and opened the door?
Jiang Jingting finally looked up at the door. He had pressed the doorbell before, but when he knew it was him, the person inside didn't open the door.
Duan Junlin rarely looked at Xiaoyu for a second longer, with hope hidden in his eyes.
That burning gaze made Xiaoyu's body instinctively hot, and her fingers pressing the doorbell were trembling slightly.
Her heart was excited because his eyes were always on her.
But after waiting for so long, the doorbell was almost broken, and no one came out to open the door.
Jiang Jingting lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
Lou Hui was a little disappointed. As expected, Ningyi still didn't open the door. Could it be that she was really not inside?
Duan Junlin also looked away, sat in the recliner, and closed his eyes to rest.
Xiaoyu's pounding heart slowly calmed down.
She frowned slightly, "Are you sure she's in there?"
Why does it feel like there isn't anyone living in there?
Everyone was silent.
At this time, a small hovercraft came with the He family logo on its body.
Jiang Jingting narrowed his eyes. Could it be He Zhiyu’s brother?
But the person who came down was a beautiful woman.
Jiang Jingting recognized her, wasn't she Liu Mier?
Why was she here? Was it because of him?
Didn't he reject her openly? Why did he chase her here?
Jiang Jingting's heart sank.
Liu Mier looked at Duan Junlin, a hint of surprise flashed across her eyes, and then she noticed Jiang Jingting and the young boy beside her.
"Jiang Jingting, why are you here?" Although Liu Mi'er was talking to Jiang Jingting, she was looking at Duan Junlin out of the corner of her eye.
She has a very accurate eye for people, and after awakening her soul energy, she can feel the energy fluctuations of others.
He is extremely powerful, handsome, and has a refined temperament. He is not like an ordinary person. Liu Mi'er felt her heart beating fast.
"I'm here to look for someone." Jiang Jingting said briefly and looked like he didn't want to say more.
With a better target, Liu Mier didn't bother to pay attention to Jiang Jingting. She glanced at Duan Junlin casually, "Oh, who is he? Do you know him?"
"Not very familiar with him." Jiang Jingting didn't want to meddle in other people's business, so he imitated Lou Hui and said, "If you want to ask, ask him yourself."
Liu Mi'er was not annoyed. With Jiang Jingting's introduction, she looked at Duan Junlin openly.
But the more she looked at him, the more handsome he became, more handsome than any man she had ever seen.
Seeing that Liu Mier had shifted her target and was no longer staring at him, Jiang Jingting breathed a sigh of relief.
It’s good to pester Duan Junlin!
Xiaoyu clenched her fists. She was displeased by the look Liu Mier gave Jun Lin.
But Xiaoyu didn't show it on her face. She smiled and walked over to greet him, her voice gentle and easygoing: "I'm Ningyi's stepmother. May I ask who you are?"
Xiaoyu subconsciously thought that she came to find Ningyi. Could she be Ningyi’s fake sister?
