From Runaway Bride to Global Queen-Chapter 93 - : Have a Drink Together

Chapter 93: Chapter 93: Have a Drink Together

“I am…”

“Ning Yuze, what are you doing here? Don’t you have to keep your fiancée company?”

Qiao Yi reached out to pull Yun Luoluo down to sit, knowing that once involved with Ning Yuze, one could never shake him off.

She considered herself a friend of Yun Luoluo’s and couldn’t just watch her get entangled with Ning Yuze.

“Qiao Yi! You—You, you, you!”

“What about me? I’m asking you a question, can’t you understand?”

...

Qiao Yi rolled her eyes impatiently and stood up, twisting her wrist.

Even such a simple movement from Qiao Yi made Ning Yuze back off several steps as if facing a formidable enemy.

“You! What are you going to do now!”

Qiao Yi almost laughed at his reaction. What was she going to do? Even though she had beaten him up before, did Ning Yuze have to be so afraid of her?

“What could I possibly do? You’re a grown man; why are you acting like such a sissy?”

Perhaps Qiao Yi’s voice was a bit loud, Ning Yuze’s face turned pale all of a sudden; he looked like a victim, with his hands protecting his chest and vigilantly watching Qiao Yi like he was warding off a pervert.

“I’m warning you, my people are all outside! If you dare to lay a hand on me again, I’ll make sure you won’t get away with it!”

“Oh no! I’m so scared!”

Qiao Yi snorted exaggeratedly, then looked at Ning Yuze seriously.

“Speak up if you have something to say, fart if you need to fart – I don’t have all day to waste with you!”

Probably because of the beating from Qiao Yi last time, Ning Yuze trembled for a good while before he could muster his courage to speak.

“Then, promise you won’t hit me!”

“If you don’t talk now, I assure you that you will be leaving horizontally today.”

Ning Yuze’s face wore an expression as if he was about to cry, lips pressed pitifully together as he glanced behind Qiao Yi before shuffling towards the door with his head lowered.

“I just came to see Miss Yun, no other intentions…”

“Just to see her?”

“Just to see her! I really didn’t plan to do anything else!”

After being caught in the women’s bathroom last time, Ning Yuze suffered both physical punishment from Qiao Yi and mental torment from gossip all around.

Under the dual pressure, a fine playboy has turned into a scaredy-cat.

Right now, he was all bark and no bite.

“You’ve seen her now, if there’s nothing else, get lost – just looking at you annoys me!”

Qiao Yi sat back down on the sofa and huffed coldly.

Scared by her tone, Ning Yuze trembled all over; though he was afraid of Qiao Yi, he still hesitated, unwilling to leave.

“You’re not leaving yet?”

“I, I want Miss Yun’s contact information…”

Though frightened, Ning Yuze still spoke his mind, but judging by the way he clung to the door frame, it seemed he was ready to flee at any moment.

This kid just doesn’t give up!

Qiao Yi slammed her hand on the table and stood up. She didn’t really want to stand up for Yun Luoluo; she simply couldn’t stand someone like Ning Yuze.

“I think you’re asking for death! You have a fiancée and yet you dare to bother Luoluo!”

“I… I’ve already called off my engagement to Sun Keke, so…”

Ning Yuze really felt like crying, his legs were incessantly weakening.

Logically speaking, as a seasoned playboy he shouldn’t be scared by a young girl like Qiao Yi; it’s just that Qiao Yi’s beatings were too vicious, and to this day, Ning Yuze felt a headache just seeing her.

“The engagement is canceled? When did this happen? I remember you attended the auction in Tian City with her just a few days ago.”

“That never happened! Right after that banquet, my engagement with Sun Keke was already dissolved!”

Ning Yuze waved his hands frantically, terrified that Qiao Yi might misunderstand and give him another beating in her bad mood.

“Whether you have an engagement or not, Yun Luoluo is not someone you can aspire to. I’ll let you off this time since you were well-behaved, but if I find out you’ve been bothering people around me again, you better watch out!”

Qiao Yi suppressed her doubts, frowned slightly, and gave Ning Yuze a glance, who then reluctantly left the rest room.

“Who is Sun Keke? And who is this man?”

“Don’t you recognize him? He’s that one from the Ning Family, Ning Yuze.”

Mentioning this name, Feng Siyu immediately knew who this person was.

After all, Ning Yuze’s reputation was well-known, and there wasn’t a lady from the high society of Capital City who hadn’t heard of him.

“But why does he seem so afraid of you?”

Feng Siyu’s face was full of gossip, and even Yun Luoluo next to her perked up her ears, curiously leaning in.

Qiao Yi helplessly tapped on the foreheads of the two, pushing their heads away from her face.

“Sun Keke is from the Sun Family, previously engaged to Ning Yuze. I once saw him being disgusting at a banquet, so I gave him a beatdown. He’s probably scared of me because his dad must have lectured him.”

If Ning Yuze knew that his nearly a month-long hospital stay had been made to sound so trivial by Qiao Yi, who knows if he would cry.

Whether Ning Yuze would cry was unknown to Qiao Yi, but right now, she was somewhat worried about Sun Keke’s situation.

Ever since she left the hospital the last time, she hadn’t been in contact with her, and had no idea how Sun Keke’s recovery was going.

“Let’s not talk about this anymore, most of the guests have arrived outside, we should go down.”

At a high society banquet, no matter what the theme is, it would ultimately evolve into a major social event; as for the main character, that person would at most draw some additional attention.

But there are some people who, even if they are not the main characters, stand out in a crowd and inevitably become the center of attention.

Lu Yanchuan was such a person, even though he was standing in a corner of the venue, the surrounding crowd was vaguely aware of his presence.

A few girls gathered together nearby, whispering something, hesitating to approach and strike up a conversation.

Third Young Master Lu getting married was no secret among the wealthy circles of Capital City, but there are plenty of couples who live their own lives outside their marriage. A marriage contract is just a token of alliance between two families.

Previously Third Young Master Lu was notoriously indifferent to women, but now…

“Mr. Lu, why are you standing alone here, how about going for a drink together?”

There were many who wanted to come over and chat, but in the end, only a sultry and spicy beauty walked over, holding her glass of alcohol slightly close to Lu Yanchuan.

Just from the side, one could tell how hot the beauty’s figure was, and it’s likely that Lu Yanchuan from his angle would see even more scenery.

“Mr. Lu probably doesn’t know me yet, I am the CEO of Sihai Group, you can call me, Le Bai.”

“Sss──”

A sound of gasps came from around, not because of Lu Yanchuan, but because of this suddenly approaching Le Bai.

This woman’s fame in Capital City was not lesser than Lu Yanchuan’s, she built her business from scratch, founded Sihai Entertainment in just five years, and with a few dark horse talents under her, she leaped to become one of the top entertainment companies nationally.

Most importantly, this woman was just as ruthless and cold-hearted as Lu Yanchuan, any prey she set her sights on never managed to escape.

That prey includes everything.
