Chapter 229: Brilliant Life, Nothing Can Replace It 4
"Thank you~" the person being praised responded generously. Leng Nuan turned around and looked at herself in the fitting mirror. It was a style she had never tried before. She was still a little uncomfortable with it, no matter if it was the different personalities and preferences of this world from her own. However, she was not a tangled person, she would experience whatever life gave her.
Just as Leng Nuan was about to change her clothes and pay the bill, a deep, magnetic voice came from behind her right side, calling her name.
"Leng Nuan, it's really you. I thought I was seeing things, I didn't expect to see you here."
The person who came was not in line with the mature and steady voice. He had very conspicuous short golden hair, a simple sweater, jeans, and white sneakers. He looked like a youthful college student.
After the man was sure that he had not recognized the wrong person, he let go of his girlfriend's shoulders and quickened his pace. With her happy and eager expression and excited speech speed, those who didn't know would think that he had met his first love. His actions made his girlfriend stomp her proud high heels unhappily on the spot, and also aroused Qin Shuangjiang's curiosity.
How is Leng Nuan connected to the Yun family?
"Ah, long time no see. How have you been lately?" Leng Nuan said hello, thinking back to the plot. There was such a person, but he was just mentioned briefly. She sensed the joy of the man in front of her and sighed again. Sure enough, there is a huge difference between reading a storybook and integrating into the world.
"I'm fine. When did you return to the capital? Is your work going well? If you need any help, feel free to ask me."
Come back? Qin Shuangjiang was surprised to hear this. Didn't Leng Nuan live here all the time?
"Mr. Qin, you are here too." The man changed the subject quickly, perhaps because he was just a chatterbox. Without waiting for Leng Nuan's reply, he greeted Qin Shuangjiang who was approaching him enthusiastically.
"Yun Shen, long time no see, how is the old man?"
"He's still strong." The two chatted briefly. Yun Shen still remembered that his girlfriend was waiting for him, so he said goodbye in a hurry. Before leaving, he said to Leng Nuan: "Come to the old place to get together when you have time."
He is really... a man like the wind~
"How do you know Yun Shen? How much do you know about him?" Qin Shuangjiang regretted her words as soon as she finished speaking. The two of them were not familiar enough to ask about private matters. She felt annoyed at herself for losing control like this. However, she attributed this problem to the complex and special identity of the Yun family, not that she was rude.
"I met him when I was a part-time singer in a bar." Leng Nuan flipped through her memories and answered with the second memory. But she didn't lie. The first time was just a brief encounter, and the second time was "acquaintance".
"You are just friends?" This question went too far. Qin Shuangjiang didn't know what happened to her today, but she wanted to know the answer.
This time, Leng Nuan did not answer directly. She looked up at the person next to her, and suspicion was revealed in her beautiful black eyes that were as innocent as a child.
"Well, I don't mean anything else. It's just that he's a very good friend." Being stared at like this by Leng Nuan, Qin Shuangjiang inexplicably felt a little guilty. She added: "But if we are partners..." In fact, the point is not his personality, but the complicated background of their family, which comes from a military and political family. It stands to reason that many people would be envious of such an identity and want to curry favor with them, but their family is special. If you want to enjoy such treatment, you have to see if you have the fate to enjoy it. Of course, this is also because people at their level know some inside information. Outside, the Yun family is very careful to keep it secret, and most people only regard them as wealthy entrepreneurs.
"I know. He is the silly son of a landlord. He is a playboy but not a vulgar man."
"No, to be precise, he is just a love-brained person." Leng Nuan corrected Qin Shuangjiang seriously.
“……” The identification is complete. It’s a friend. He really understands it very well.
Thinking that it was still early, the two decided to have lunch together.
They chose a Japanese restaurant and ordered a set meal each. This way they could eat their own portion of food without the embarrassment of picking up food from others.
The two did not talk during the meal. Because of his busy work, Qin Shuangjiang had already developed the habit of finishing his meals quickly. On weekdays, he would only deliberately control his speed in front of his parents.
She put down her chopsticks and looked at the person opposite her seriously.
She found that Leng Nuan was very focused when eating, as if she was just eating at the moment, without any extra movements. She would neither look at her phone nor think about other things. For many people nowadays, looking at the phone while eating is an action that cannot be avoided. Because they are too busy on weekdays, this is the only free time for them to relax.
Therefore, because of this behavior, Qin Shuangjiang had a slightly different impression of the person in front of him.
She suddenly thought of the family dinner next week. Although Qin's father and mother had not yet planned to officially announce her identity, in fact, people in the circle knew something more or less. And for the next family dinner, they planned to let Leng Nuan recognize her first.
So she kindly mentioned, "If you have any questions about the family dinner next week, you can ask me."
Leng Nuan nodded to her, indicating that he understood, and then continued to concentrate on eating.
In fact, this family dinner is a test for Leng Nuan, but isn't it also a test for Qin Shuangjiang? The Qin family has a good family tradition, but it doesn't mean that other people with the surname Qin are good.
Qin Shuangjiang herself knew this. But compared to Leng Nuan, she had real power after all, so even if they were dissatisfied with her, they dared not do anything to her openly. But it was different for Leng Nuan.
Qin Shuangjiang looked at the other person's beautiful, no, well-behaved and weak appearance, and couldn't help but feel a little worried about her. Compared with that group of people, Leng Nuan was just a little lamb among wolves.
After finishing their meal, neither of them wanted to continue shopping, so they took the vertical elevator and went directly to the underground parking lot.
Relying on her height and long legs, Qin Shuangjiang's pace was a little faster than Leng Nuan's. Because she was thinking about something, she forgot to adjust her speed and unknowingly walked in front of her.
When she walked to the opposite side of her car and was about to go over, a black commercial vehicle suddenly sped up. Qin Shuangjiang was dazzled by the sudden light. She stood still, and at the same time, she felt someone hit her back hard, causing her to stagger half a step. By the time she reacted, the black commercial vehicle had already driven out of the parking garage.
She turned her head to look at the person behind her. Although Leng Nuan had already retracted her hand, she still saw her extending it when she looked back.
"Are you okay?"
Qin Shuangjiang temporarily suppressed her doubts. She could see that the other party's concern was not fake. Maybe the other party just wanted to hold her back.
"It's okay." She convinced herself, but her attitude towards Leng Nuan was much colder than before.
This accident not only frightened them, but also frightened the bodyguards who were following not far away. The two of them quickened their pace and came to Qin Shuangjiang's side, one on the left and one on the right.
Qin Shuangjiang didn't say anything and walked straight to his car.
She did not miss the other person's moment of surprise and doubt. Leng Nuan lowered her head and looked at her right hand.
Just now……
Was she reaching out to grab the other person or to push her?
