Chapter 461 Two Women Join Forces (3)
"Dealing with Jiang Xue?" Lu Ling was stunned for a moment, and then she was delighted. Dealing with Jiang Xue, wasn’t that exactly what she planned to do?
"Exactly! Once Jiang Xue is resolved, won’t Miss Lu easily win over Mu Qiancheng?" Ming Lan looked at Lu Ling, deliberately goading her. She knew Lu Ling was a proud woman who would never admit she couldn’t handle Mu Qiancheng.
Now, she would only think that it was because of Jiang Xue. So, as long as she helps resolve Jiang Xue, Lu Ling would surely believe that Mu Qiancheng would eventually be hers.
After all, she has the talent, the looks, the family background. Who wouldn’t want to marry such a woman?
Sure enough, upon hearing Ming Lan’s words, Lu Ling immediately showed a determined expression and asked, "I wonder what plan Miss Ming has to deal with Jiang Xue?"
"Here’s what I plan to do..." Ming Lan shared her ideas and plans with Lu Ling. Lu Ling wasn’t foolish, so after listening, she asked, "I wonder what Miss Ming needs me to do?"
"Miss Lu, it’s like this, this matter is something I definitely cannot handle alone, so I need an ally to help. I wonder what Miss Lu thinks?"
Lu Ling looked at Ming Lan, secretly thinking that, indeed, she is a woman who doesn’t visit without a reason. However, what puzzled her was that Ming Lan, being Miss Ming, would even need her help to do such a thing?
What exactly was her intention, or what was her true purpose? Thinking this, Lu Ling directly asked, "Miss Ming, it’s not that I won’t help. But I would like to know why you are seeking my help? With your family’s background, this should be a simple task."
Upon hearing this, Ming Lan’s expression stiffened slightly. She originally didn’t want to bring up this matter, but now she had to for Lu Ling’s help.
So, she took a deep breath, then looked up at Lu Ling and said, "Miss Lu, to be honest, the Ming Family is not what it used to be, so I can only seek your help. Isn’t it said, ’the enemy of my enemy is my friend’? I hope Miss Lu can seriously consider this matter."
"I see!" Lu Ling could tell from Ming Lan’s words that something must have happened to the Ming Family, but she did not immediately agree to Ming Lan. After all, she was not familiar with Ming Lan and worried about being deceived, so she decided to investigate her conflict with Jiang Xue thoroughly.
Only by knowing the whole truth could she join forces with her.
"Alright, I understand. I’ll think about it carefully. Please, Miss Ming, go back first. I’ll inform you when I have news."
"Okay, then I’ll just wait for your good news, Miss Lu." Ming Lan knew Lu Ling was asking her to leave, so she didn’t linger and directly stood up to bid farewell.
Leaving the courtyard, Ming Lan returned directly to the Hailong Hotel. Now she had nowhere else to go, and Gong Hai was still recovering, so she stayed at the hotel all the time.
Gong Hai clearly noticed Ming Lan’s busy days. Seeing her return from outside, he couldn’t help but ask, "Lan’er, where did you go?"
"What, do I need to get your permission for where I go?" Ming Lan’s tone wasn’t great, feeling gong Hai was controlling her.
If it had been before, she would have spoken nicely to Gong Hai. But ever since he took a knife for Jiang Xue, she had reservations about Gong Hai.
If she had anywhere else to stay, she would have already left.
"Lan’er, what’s wrong with you? Why are you speaking so harshly?" Gong Hai’s face turned sour. He genuinely cared for Ming Lan, but she wasn’t appreciative, making him feel his good intentions were taken for granted.
