1098 Born To Be The Bane of Me (1/2)
”This is a good idea! I don't want to give it to Ning Yaohua or Ning Yaobang either, and if I hold on to it, I'm worried that they'll trouble me! Giving it to Ning Qiutong is a smart thing too. Based on her personality, she definitely wouldn't let the other two sides go easy. Besides, with Ning Qiutong's business capabilities, she won't let Grandfather's company wane! Boss, you're too smart!”
Ning Xi discussed it with Lu Tingxiao for a while more, then when he saw that it was getting late, she asked, ”Do you want to sleep over?”
When Lu Tingxiao heard her, he looked at her and said, ”Nah.”
”Ah? Why not? It's quite late! Isn't it troublesome to rush back? Do you still have things to attend to later?” Ning Xi was confused.
Lu Tingxiao massaged his temples helplessly as he said, ”Because I will easily lose control, especially in our future matrimonial home. Understand?”
”Uhh...”
Lu Tingxiao rubbed the girl's head adoringly. ”I don't necessarily have to wait till after marriage, but I still want to do so because you're the most important person to me, so I'm willing to wait and I want to give you the utmost respect too.”
Ning Xi sighed, enjoying her head being rubbed against his broad palm as she mumbled, ”I am forever within your hands... I really have no complaints at all... You were born just to be the bane of me, weren't you?”
A while later, Ning Xi sent him off.
Before he left, Lu Tingxiao suddenly thought of something and gave her a red, gold-plated invitation.
Ning Xi opened it to read and asked in confusion, ”Huh...a birthday invitation? Who is Mo Jianzhang? Why am I invited?”
”It's Mo Lingtian's father. The invitation was sent by Lingtian. If you're free tomorrow night, then you can go with me. Otherwise, then it's fine.”
Mo Lingtian must have been prepared to invite Lu Tingxiao and his female partner, but because they could not appear as a couple, he had especially prepared an individual invitation for Ning Xi. This gesture showed that he valued her.
