Ning Xixi found it somewhat amusing. After all, no matter what was allocated to her, with the waiver of inheritance rights that Lu Qinghe made her sign, she wouldn’t receive anything anyway.
"I don’t know, and I’m not interested. Miss Lu, if there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up."
Ning Xixi’s indifference greatly displeased Lu Qinghe.
If the call ended like this, wouldn’t it mean letting her off easy?
"Wait a minute!" Lu Qinghe sneered, "Let’s just cut to the chase. Your father didn’t leave you a single property, fund, or share! None of the wealth he built has your name on it!"
Even though Ning Xixi was indifferent to everything related to Ning Jingshen, she still felt suppressed and upset hearing this.
The last time Gong Xiu almost assaulted her, Ning Jingshen had stood up for her. Ning Xixi had thought he had reformed.
It turned out to be just an illusion...
"Well, congratulations to Miss Lu," Ning Xixi said with a calm voice.
On the other end of the phone, Lu Qinghe clenched the phone tightly.
Damn it, wasn’t this brat supposed to be infuriated and inconsolable?
Hmph, but she hadn’t expected that a simple paternity test would lead Ning Jingshen to make such a decision.
"Ning Xixi, this is just the beginning." Lu Qinghe chuckled darkly and hung up the phone.
Ning Xixi lowered her lashes and leaned her forehead against Ji Yebai’s broad back.
"What’s wrong?" Ji Yebai frowned, about to turn his head to check on Ning Xixi.
"Don’t look back... don’t look at me... please..." Ning Xixi murmured softly.
She didn’t want Ji Yebai to see her distressed expression.
Ji Yebai, guessing somewhat, commanded arrogantly, "Thought it was too slow? Hold tight! Young master is taking you to the riverbank!"
"Eh?"
The helmet covered most of Ji Yebai’s face, revealing only the sharp lines of his jaw.
His thin lips curled up in a confident smile; the speed of the motorcycle increased.
Wind rushed towards them.
Ning Xixi clung to him tightly, slightly scared as the speed increased, but deep inside, a thrill surged...
As if all the negativity could be vented out in this motorcycle ride!
The motorcycle roared along the road, the silver-blue body streaking through the bustling streets like a shooting star—
...
By the Canglan River, Ji Yebai lifted her off the bike, her face flushed, her eyes sparkling like stars, she wrapped her arms around his neck, "Dabai, you were amazing!"
He tapped her nose, "Tell me, what happened."
Ning Xixi looked directly at his stunningly handsome face, "My dad made a will, and he left me nothing."
His large hand suddenly wrapped around her waist, his palm’s warmth transmitting through the thin fabric.
Ji Yebai said gravely, "I will support you."
Those three words, as solemn and sacred as a marital vow.
A warm liquid welled up in her eyes; Ning Xixi barely held it back.
"I can support myself too! I even plan to earn more and keep you~"
Ji Yebai laughed indulgently, "Sure, young master will wait for the day you can keep me!"
"Being a kept man yet acting so entitled, only you could pull that off!"
Ning Xixi bantered, rubbing her little head against his chest, her tone gradually became hoarse, "Dabai, I miss my mom..."
Ji Yebai remained silent, only holding her tighter.
The phone chimed, a notification sound of an email.
Ji Yebai opened it with one hand, his expression suddenly changed.
Emotions surged, his chest heaving dramatically, and then, he accidentally pushed Ning Xixi away...
