Chapter 46 - Miss Ning, You Can’t Escape
“Qingqing, you’re here,” Ning Zhenguo saw Ning Qing and he quickly waved, “Come here and sit.” He pointed at the seat next to him.
Ning Qing walked over and took a seat. The man opposite flashed a kind and honest smile at her, but Ning Qing saw that he kept eyeing her chest which was a very boorish act.
“Dad, mom’s liver transplant surgery is tomorrow. The one million I was telling you about last night…”
“Qingqing, don’t worry. I didn’t say that I won’t give you that one million,” Ning Zhenguo cut her off and poured her a glass of fruit juice, “But daddy can’t take care of you and your mom forever. You’re not young anymore. It’s time for you to consider your wedding. Find a good man and get married, then daddy wouldn’t need to worry.”
Ning Qing smiled coldly. So, this is a meeting for a prospective mate?
The man opposite was at least forty years old. Either his body condition wasn’t working so he didn’t get married or maybe he divorced for a few times…
Is she not young?
It was going to be her twenty-first birthday the following month. For the past three years, her father didn’t bother with her and now he was pretending to be a loving father. That’s enough.
Ning Qing maintained a faint smile and said, “Dad, lend me a million and I’ll return it to you with interest charged. I will write up an agreement.”
“Qingqing, what are you talking about?” Ning Zhenguo’s face grew grave and he slammed his wine glass on the table, “Am I the kind of father that would make no effort to save somebody else’s life?”
“Then, lend me the money now!” Ning Qing answered elegantly.
“You…” Ning Zhenguo’s fingertip was shivering; it was a stalemate situation.
There was a ringing tone. Ning Zhenguo’s phone was ringing.
He apologized to the man opposite and humphed at Ning Qing before he got up to answer the phone outside.
When Ning Zhenguo left the private room, a waitress happened to send in the dishes. It was sirloin steak with a pink candle on it. The waitress lit up the candle.
Ning Qing smelled a faint fragrance.
Until the waitress left, Ning Qing was considering if she should wait for Ning Zhenguo. As she was thinking, the man opposite got up and sat next to her, “Miss Ning, seeing is believing. You’re so beautiful. My surname is Shi. I am your dad’s business partner. I fell in love with you at first sight. I hope you can be my girlfriend.”
Ning Qing saw that he took Ning Zhenguo’s seat, she knew that Ning Zhenguo wouldn’t return. She’s so naive that she placed any hope in her dad.
She looked at the man with a gentle smile, “With your age, you could already be my father. You, how do you qualify to hunt for someone way out of your league?”
There was a flash of embarrassment on the man’s face. He stopped pretending, and a vicious gaze measured Ning Qing up and down. He then extended his hand to touch Ning Qing’s thigh, “Miss Ning, don’t you want money? Your dad couldn’t be bothered with you. Follow me and I’ll give you money.”
Ning Qing quickly stood up but didn’t let the man touch her. She picked up the fruit juice that Ning Zhenguo gave her earlier and splashed it on the man’s face, “Why don’t you go home and look at yourself in the mirror.”
She turned around and walked towards the door.
Her hand reached for the doorknob but the door was locked.
She felt lightheaded, then her legs grew weak and she had no strength at all. She immediately realized that she was set up. There was a drug in the pink candle earlier.
“Miss Ning, don’t run. You can’t run anyway tonight. Just obey me,” the man took the serviette on the table to wipe his face. Then, he walked towards Ning Qing. He was already taking off his belt.
