Chapter 507: Are You Having Fun Playing Me? 9
"Miss Ning! What’s wrong with you?" the stylist asked with concern.
Ning Xixi’s eyelashes trembled, and she stood up, leaning on the vanity.
"I need to go to the hospital."
"But... the engagement party is going to start in two hours..."
"I have to go to the hospital!" Ning Xixi emphasized, pushing away the person in front of her and lifting the hem of her dress, she rushed downstairs...
-
Hospital.
Ning Xixi pressed the elevator button for Ning Jingshen’s hospital floor, covering her chest with a pained expression.
How could this... how could this happen...
Although Ning Jingshen had not treated her well, in Ning Xixi’s heart, she always regarded him as a father.
She could cut ties with him, but she couldn’t just watch him die.
With a "ding-dong", the elevator arrived.
She sprinted, pushing open the door of the hospital room!
The scene before her made her blood instantly freeze!
Ning Jingshen was sitting upright on the hospital bed, and Lu Qinghe, who had been weeping desperately on the phone just now, didn’t have a trace of sadness on her face.
Rage erupted!
"Are you having fun playing me? Lu Qinghe?!"
"Don’t you dare speak to your aunt like that!" Ning Jingshen scolded, "It was my idea to do this!"
Ning Xixi could hardly believe her own ears!
Her blood was rushing in reverse, and her heart felt like it was going to explode from the pressure.
"How could you... How could you joke about something like this!" She took several deep breaths, "Since you’re fine, I’m leaving."
Two bodyguards suddenly blocked her way.
"Get out of my way!"
Instead of listening, the bodyguards snatched away her cell phone!
Ning Jingshen said gravely, "You are not allowed to go to the engagement party today."
"What right do you have to keep me from going?" Ning Xixi exploded with anger. Does her dad have some kind of problem in his brain?
Lu Qinghe added fuel to the fire, "Old Ning, look at her! She even dares to disrespect you!"
Ning Xixi coldly glanced at her, "Wasn’t your last lesson enough?"
A flash of embarrassment crossed Lu Qinghe’s face, remembering the humiliation she endured last time, she felt even more venomous hatred for Ning Xixi!
"You ungrateful girl!" Ning Jingshen cursed, "Do you know, the Ji Family business is in deep trouble now? Your father is doing this for your good, to prevent you from jumping into the fire. Can’t you stop being so stubborn?"
"Don’t force me to do things I’m unwilling to do under the guise of your goodwill!"
Ning Jingshen, frustrated that she wouldn’t listen, said, "You’re blinded by love right now! Qinghe, tell her what’s really going on!"
"Alright." Lu Qinghe looked at Ning Xixi with schadenfreude in her eyes, "A branch company under the Ji’s has caused a fatality, the senior management has collectively betrayed, and they are currently trying to suppress the situation. But soon, they won’t be able to contain it. When that happens, the Ji Family’s stocks will plummet, and the companies associated with them will all be affected. If you announce your engagement with Ji Yebai at this time, wouldn’t that be disastrous for both the Ning Family and the Lu Family?"
Ning Xixi felt a chill down her spine.
Is this the reality of the adult world?
Only interests, no emotions.
Ning Jingshen pleaded earnestly, "Xixi, you can’t be so selfish. The companies under the Ning Family and the Lu Family have thousands of employees combined. Are you going to be the cause of trouble for all these people because of yourself?"
Ning Xixi sneered, "So what?"
"You must break off contact with Ji Yebai!"
"What if I say no?"
Looking at this stubborn young lady, Ning Jingshen’s face was covered with cold ruthlessness.
"I will not let you destroy the hard work of my lifetime."
