“Oh, I see.” Lu Zhi retracted his gaze and continued coldly, “But Yining isn’t very familiar with Elder Liang. She just happened to get a piece of his music. I’m afraid you won’t be able to get much information from her. Isn’t that right, Yining?”
His question to Jiang Yining was casual but it felt as heavy as lead when it fell on her ears…
Jiang Yining nodded and smiled at Xiao Lang. “Yes, that’s right. You shouldn’t ask me for help anymore.”
Xiao Lang was speechless.
She had told him so much about Elder Liang just now.
Who would believe that she didn’t know him well?
He knew that Jiang Yining was lying, but he couldn’t expose her in front of Lu Zhi.
After all, he was an outsider.
It would be bad if he ruined their relationship.
“Sorry for my abruptness,” Xiao Lang said. “Mr. Lu, it’s my fault that I didn’t tell you in advance about our meeting today. I hope you don’t blame Yining.”
“Why would I blame her? I couldn’t love her enough.” Lu Zhi curled his lips and pulled her into his arms. His deep voice was filled with deep affection. “Wifey, do I usually interfere with who you meet?”
Of course, he did…
Jiang Yining was shouting loudly in her heart, but she agreed cheerfully, “No, you don’t.”
“Young Master Xiao, did you hear that?”
“Yes.”
Xiao Lang looked at the lovey-dovey couple in front of him and felt a little jealous.
“Do you have anything else to talk about?” Lu Zhi grabbed Jiang Ning’s hand and secretly applied pressure.
Jiang Yining didn’t dare to say anything else and immediately shook her head.
Xiao Lang didn’t want to continue asking about Elder Liang in front of Lu Zhi, so he said, “We are done.”
“Then we’ll take our leave.”
“Okay, goodbye.”
Xiao Lang stood up to see them off.
Lu Zhi held Jiang Ning’s hand and said, “Stay.”
Xiao Lang froze on the spot.
Jiang Yining didn’t even have the chance to explain when they walked out of the cafe.
Lu Zhi flung her hand away and said distantly, “Are you interested in Xiao Lang? I’ve already warned you that he’s a playboy.”
“I am not interested in him at all. I happened to meet him, and we just chatted casually. Don’t think too much.”
“I think too much?” Lu Zhi seemed to have been provoked by her last sentence and his face turned as cold as ice. “We’re just a fake couple. About what can I think too much? Jiang Yining, I’m protecting you so that you can treat my illness. But if you insist on running towards danger and hurting yourself… Don’t blame me for failing to protect you.”
“It’s not as serious as you say. I can still tell a good person from a bad one.”
So what if Xiao Lang was a playboy? It had nothing to do with her.
She would never like him anyway.
She was not a three-year-old child who needed him to protect her from everything.
Lu Zhi chuckled but there was no trace of a smile on his face. “Okay, that’s what you said.”
He strode forward after he said that.
Jiang Yining stood on the spot, not knowing whether to follow him or go home.
Lu Zhi had walked five to six steps when he realized that she wasn’t following him.
He asked coldly, “Why are you still standing there?”
Jiang Yining understood right away.
She quickly caught up with him.
In the cafe, Xiao Lang watched Lu Zhi and Jiang Yining cross the street with envy in his eyes.
He had heard from Beicheng before that his brother was a very cold person.
Other than being nice to his younger brother, he was not polite to anyone else.
He thought that Jiang Yining wouldn’t have a good life after marrying Lu Zhi.
He felt sorry for her.
However, he did not expect that he was so jealous of Lu Zhi.
This meant that he cared a lot about Jiang Yining.
Xiao Lang left the cafe only after he could no longer see the couple..
