Chapter 212: Chapter 212: Convincing Lu Zhengyang to Pursue Nan Qiao
Lu Zhengyang said, "Xiao Ya told me that Nan Qiao was the foster daughter the Zhou Family took by mistake."
Ren Yongshi looked coldly at Lu Zhengyang, "You really act like a fool! Have you become stupid from spending too much time with Zhou Jingya?"
Lu Zhengyang, "Mom, she is Mr. Li’s girlfriend."
Ren Yongshi, "..."
Previously, Ren Yongshi hadn’t known that Nan Qiao had a boyfriend, and upon hearing from Lu Zhengyang that she was Mr. Li’s girlfriend, she was completely dumbfounded.
"Which Mr. Li?"
"Li Yehan." Lu Zhengyang said softly, fearing that someone might overhear him mentioning Li Yehan’s name.
Ren Yongshi was dumbfounded again, looking around, not seeing Li Yehan anywhere.
"If she is Li Yehan’s girlfriend, why isn’t he accompanying her at the event? Could it be he’s just playing with her and doesn’t really like her? Or maybe they have already broken up?"
"I’m not sure," Lu Zhengyang replied truthfully.
Ren Yongshi, "..."
Ren Yongshi had nothing to say, facing the ignorant Lu Zhengyang, she felt so irked.
"Hurry, come with me to greet Nan Qiao."
Ren Yongshi walked toward where Nan Qiao was, with Lu Zhengyang following behind.
Nan Qiao also noticed Ren Yongshi and Lu Zhengyang approaching her, looking at them with surprise.
"Miss Nan Qiao, hello, I am Ren Yongshi, Lu Zhengyang’s mother. I heard from Zhengyang that there has been some misunderstanding between you two. Zhengyang feels very sorry and specifically came here to apologize to you."
Nan Qiao glanced at Lu Zhengyang, showing a slight smile, "Mrs. Lu, there’s been no misunderstanding between him and me."
Ren Yongshi, "Is that so? Zhengyang this child took Zhou Jingya’s words for it and misunderstood you."
"Mrs. Lu, the past is the past, I haven’t taken it to heart," Nan Qiao continued.
Ren Yongshi, "Zhengyang, you should learn from this, look at how magnanimous Qiaoqiao is. You can’t make the same mistake in the future. Luckily, you discovered Zhou Jingya’s true colors and broke up with her."
Nan Qiao took another look at Lu Zhengyang, so he had broken up with Zhou Jingya? Nan Qiao didn’t quite believe it.
Looking at Lu Zhengyang, he really seemed like a mama’s boy!
Ren Yongshi was leading the charge in front, regardless of whether he liked it or not, she would settle it all.
Lu Zhengyang took the initiative, "Nan Qiao, I was wrong about the incident last time, I apologize to you."
"No need."
Nan Qiao, holding a champagne, said politely, "Mrs. Lu, I have other matters, please excuse me."
Nan Qiao left with Rong Yan, while Lu Zhengyang frowned, "Mom, did you see? Nan Qiao is so arrogant, I don’t understand what she has to be arrogant about."
Ren Yongshi and Lu Zhengyang left early and didn’t know about Nan Qiao’s other identity, Huai Xi.
The Zhou family would certainly not tell Lu Zhengyang, and mother and son still thought Nan Qiao was of an ordinary background.
Ren Yongshi, holding a wine glass, coldly smiled, "This Nan Qiao, truly high and mighty! It’s her honor that I initiated a greeting to her, she should drink a toast or drink a forfeit!"
Lu Zhengyang immediately added, "Mom, better choose someone else. Nan Qiao is pretty, but she can’t help me expand my business."
The main business of the Lu Family is pharmaceuticals, while Nan Qiao’s company is in fashion.
Ren Yongshi nodded, "Okay, let’s wait. I’m still waiting for news. I want to see what the Bai Family’s newly found Young Miss is all about. Keeping secrets, can’t she come out into the open?"
"Mom, please stop playing matchmaker. Do you really want to sacrifice my happiness for status?"
Just as Ren Yongshi was about to scold Lu Zhengyang, she spotted Nan Qiao talking with Bai Jingting.
"Stupid son, see? Nan Qiao can even speak with the Eldest Young Master of the Bai Family, she has broad connections. You should sweet-talk her first, see if she can help you. If she really can’t help, then you can break it off, isn’t that fine?"
Lu Zhengyang didn’t respond, seeming to agree with Ren Yongshi’s suggestion.
...
Bai Jingting, holding a glass of red wine, switched the champagne in Nan Qiao’s hand with juice.
"Qiaoqiao, girls should drink less alcohol, have some beverage."
Nan Qiao, turning her back to the crowd, now held a glass of juice.
"Big Brother, you should also drink less."
"Okay, Big Brother will also drink beverages," Bai Jingting decisively swapped his own wine for juice.
Both holding the same drink, they chatted and laughed together.
Everyone was guessing about the relationship between Nan Qiao and Bai Jingting when Li Yehan appeared.
Li Yehan, who usually wouldn’t attend such events, had unexpectedly shown up, drawing everyone’s attention once again as they all wanted to greet him.
Li Yehan ignored these people, walking directly towards Nan Qiao. To others, it seemed he was there to greet Bai Jingting.
"Jingting, long time no see."
Bai Jingting lifted his drink, the two clinked glasses, each taking a sip.
Nan Qiao stood beside them, Li Yehan’s glass approached her, "Miss Nan Qiao, pleased to meet you."
Li Yehan’s gaze almost spun threads.
Fortunately, he was facing away from the crowd, which prevented others from noticing the dynamics between him and Nan Qiao.
Nan Qiao, "..."
Wasn’t Li Yehan not coming?
What was this all about?
Nan Qiao raised her drink, also clinking glasses with Li Yehan.
Bai Jingting watched the interaction between the two, also knowing from Chen Xinwan that Li Yehan was pursuing his sister, feeling somewhat uncomfortable.
Everyone knew Li Yehan was ruthless and cold-hearted, how could he possibly treat a girl nicely.
Bai Jingting spoke, "Ye Han, how do you have time to attend today’s banquet, as far as I know, you declined."
Li Yehan, "I heard Qiaoqiao was coming and I couldn’t rest easy, so I came to check."
Nan Qiao, "..."
Nan Qiao, "Li Yehan, keep a low profile."
Li Yehan, "Lu Zhengyang has seen us together, Qiaoqiao, we can’t hide our relationship anymore."
Now it was Bai Jingting’s turn to be dumbfounded.
His memory of Li Yehan was nothing like this comfortable, amiable conversation.
This was Bai Jingting’s first experience of seeing such a side of Li Yehan.
Nan Qiao whispered, "I brought Rong Yan out today, I need to attend to something else first."
Nan Qiao hurried away, worried Rong Yan might not manage by himself, she specifically went to help him.
Li Yehan wanted to leave, but Bai Jingting grabbed his arm, then let go.
"Li Yehan, my sister wants to keep it low-key, but you seem very keen to be high-profile."
Li Yehan, "Jingting, whatever Qiaoqiao likes, that’s what I am. I just went to get a glass of red wine, did you think I was pestering your sister?"
Bai Jingting nodded, "Of course, Qiaoqiao is my sister and I naturally care about her. Li Yehan, do you really like my sister, or do you find her special and just want to tease her?"
Bai Jingting’s eyes radiated a cold light, his expression indifferent as he looked at Li Yehan, his words sounding like a warning.
If Li Yehan ever bullied his sister, he, Bai Jingting, would not sit idly by.
