Chapter 247 - Not Angry Anymore? Not Ignoring Me Anymore? (1/2)

For a moment, the charity hall was silent, and everyone looked at Ning Qing.

Ning Qing was the subject of everyone’s attention, they were gazes full of… Pity, Compa.s.sion.

She was the wife. She was pregnant and had just won the hearts of the people. She had beaten her mother-in-law, but what was this about? Lu Shaoming and Zhou Zhilei were together.

Song Yajing and Kong Lan looked at Ning Qing contemptuously and provocatively. Yin Shuiling couldn’t help but blurt out, “What the f*ck, Ning Qing. What kind of man have you found?”

Ning Qing looked at the man who was so handsome she couldn’t look away. One second, two seconds. Then turned around calmly.

Without a word, she turned and left.

“Director Ning, don’t you want to say anything?” a reporter asked.

Ning Qing’s footsteps did not stop. She gracefully curved her lips. “No. If you want to ask, you should ask Young Master Lu. Everything depends on what he says. I don’t have any opinions.”

After she had finished her sentence, the reporters were silent. What she meant by this was… Even if Young Master Lu and Zhou Zhilei got together, she would have nothing to say?

Everyone looked at the girl’s back. Her bright yellow dress made her look stark and beautiful. She did not express too much emotion. Even in this scene, her demeanor was still chic and domineering.

A touch of heartache could be felt by everyone.

Song Yajing’s eyes flashed a triumphant satisfaction. It was only a few seconds later, the girl had walked out the door and onto the lawn outside.

The lawn was decorated with lights. Crystal lights were hung everywhere, and a fountain garden was in the middle. The water sprayed in the fountain.

Outside, T-city’s n.o.bles were still getting out of their cars and walking towards the hall. Wherever the girl appears, she attracts a lot of attention. Kong Lan shot a look at one of the n.o.bles and that n.o.ble nodded.

Ning Qing walked out, brus.h.i.+ng past several people. She was absent-minded. Someone knocked her on the shoulder. Her steps were unstable. She stumbled a couple of steps and was about to fall into the fountain.

“Ning Qing…”

Someone shouted.

Ning Qing covered her abdomen with her little hand in that second. The water in the fountain was shallow and not dangerous, but she was afraid that her baby would feel cold. Her only thought was to protect her baby.

But she did not fall into the water, because her slender arm was clasped by a big palm. As soon as the man grabbed her, she fell into the broad warm arms of the man.

Ning Qing looked up, stunned; it was Lu Shaoming.

The man didn’t look down at her. His jaw was tight as he held her in one arm. Another big hand quickly grabbed the n.o.ble who had deliberately b.u.mped into Ning Qing. He turned his big hand around and pinned the n.o.ble’s arm behind him. He heard a click as the n.o.ble’s bone dislocated, and then Baam! followed by a bitter scream. The n.o.ble had been kicked into the fountain by Lu Shaoming.

Because they were standing at the edge of the pool, water splashed up when the n.o.ble fell into the fountain. The man moved sideways to block her and raised another hand to cover her ears, holding her in his arms.

At this time, all the people in the hall had gathered at the door and covered their mouths as they said, “Wow, Young Master Lu is indeed so handsome.”

The man was wearing a light blue s.h.i.+rt and grey trousers. The girl looked very small in his arms. The back of his s.h.i.+rt and trousers were splashed with water, which added an unconstrained touch to his masculine figure.

When everything was quiet, Lu Shaoming held up the girl’s little face. He looked her up and down and asked nervously, “Ning Qing, are you alright? Were you splashed or startled?”

Ning Qing looked down and moved her little head. She wanted to rid herself of his big hand.

“Ning Qing, what’s wrong?” Her resistance made him breathe heavily.

By this time, the people who were walking with the n.o.ble were shocked. They all bent their heads and waist with trepidation. “Young Master Lu, we’re sorry…”

Lu Shaoming was a man who seldom got angry. He always bore a n.o.ble and elegant stance in front of the world. But now he was breathing heavily, and his eagle-like eyes swept across the men. His voice was fierce as he said, “Is your apology helpful? What if my wife fell down and the child got hurt? You can’t walk, can you? Why do you need your legs then?”

The men’s legs were soft as they cried out, “Young Master Lu, I’m really sorry, but we don’t know how he b.u.mped into Mrs. Lu…”

One of the smarter ones came to Ning Qing and stooped repeatedly. “Mrs. Lu, I’m sorry, we really didn’t mean to. I hope Mrs. Lu can be gracious and can say a few words of courtesy to Young Master Lu for us.”

“Yes, Mrs. Lu, please forgive us.” All of them stood in front of Ning Qing, heads and waist bent. They were almost kneeling.

She shouldn’t blame the innocent people. These people were implicated in something that they had no part in. Ning Qing’s heart couldn’t bear to punish them, and she was unwilling to have Lu Shaoming harm them on her behalf.

But she didn’t want to talk to the man, so she put one hand over her lower abdomen and hissed.

“Ning Qing!” Lu Shaoming’s pupils shrank. His big palms quickly covered her little hands, and his brows knitted together tightly. “Where does it hurt, tell me quickly…”

Ning Qing pouted her pink lips but still did not raise her eyes. “It’s very noisy, let them all disperse.”

Lu Shaoming watched her pout, and his heart almost melted. He glanced sideways at the men, and his tone was stiff as he said, “Get lost!”

“Yes, thank you Young Master Lu and Mrs. Lu.” The men ran for their lives.

At this time, a bodyguard pulled up the n.o.ble from the fountain. The n.o.ble’s expression was like dead ash. Lu Shaoming’s thin and cool lip curved into a cold arc. “I don’t want to see him again in T city.”

“Yes, President.” The bodyguards dragged the n.o.ble away.
