Chapter 2493: He Suddenly Appeared in the Middle of the Night

While President Li was on the phone with Song Yuling, Ning Yuan went to the washroom.

Coming out of the washroom, Ning Yuan went to the garden to take a breather.

She had only taken a few steps when she saw a tall black figure behind the rockwork.

The man was holding a phone in one hand and a cigarette in the other. The smoke slowly rose and blurred his well-defined and handsome face.

He should be talking about work. His voice was deep and cold, exuding an invisible dignity and aura.

Ning Yuan was not interested in eavesdropping on others’ calls and planned to go to another place.

A delicate white figure walked past her and went behind the rockwork.

The man ended the call.

That slender figure stood in front of him.

“Your Highness.” The girl seemed to have mustered up a lot of courage before she dared to speak to him.

The man’s face was hidden in the smoke and Ning Yuan could not see his expression, but she saw him walking around the girl.

“Your Highness, can we add each other on WeChat?”

Among Mu Sihan’s three children, Ye Yu was the most similar to him, regardless of personality or appearance.

But in fact, he was colder than his father.

Since he was young, although there were many people who had a crush on him, few dared to show their feelings to him.

Usually, when his cold black eyes swept over, she would be so scared that she would not dare to say anything.

The fierce and cold aura on him was too strong.

“No.” Faced with Yu Bao’er’s shy and admiring gaze, he rejected her expressionlessly.

Yu Bao’er thought of Yu Hai’s instructions and she pulled the man’s sleeve, her eyes bright. “Your Highness, I want to be friends with you…”

Before she could finish, she was pushed away by a strong force.

Yu Bao’er fell to the ground.

“Go back and take a look at yourself in the mirror.” The man said coldly and left.

….

Ning Yuan really did not peek at this scene on purpose.

Before she could react, the girl had already been pushed to the ground.

Compared to her accidentally flirting with him back then and being warned by his cold gaze, the girl seemed to be in a worse state than her.

Ning Yuan saw Ye Yu walking over and she did not have time to avoid him. Her gaze met with his deep and cold black eyes.

The night breeze blew at the hem of her red dress. Her long hair covered one side of her face, revealing her slender and straight legs. Her exquisite figure looked even more beautiful under the light.

Faced with Ye Yu’s gaze, Ning Yuan did not avoid it and a professional smile appeared on her beautiful face.

Although he had rejected her during the last interview, she did not have the right to be angry at him.

Her red lips moved slightly, wanting to greet him when the man’s cold figure had already walked past her and left.

Ning Yuan had been a beauty since she was young. To be honest, this Second Prince was the first to ignore her so completely!

Ning Yuan brushed her long hair away, feeling a little angry but helpless!

….

Back at the Ning family.

She had just arrived at the entrance when she heard Song Yuling’s unhappy voice. “Her wings have hardened. President Li invested 20 million and she wants to move out. She even asked President Li to call me. If I go to her place to make a ruckus again, we will stop our cooperation!”

“I asked her to find a backer for the Ning family, not to find someone to threaten the Ning family!”

Ning Bangguo pulled Song Yuling, who was shouting loudly, and said with a frown, “Alright, it’s not Yuan Yuan. You can’t even get this 20 million.”

“Alright, she can move out, but it’s impossible to cut ties with our family unless she can take out a billion dollars!”

One billion?

Ning Yuan felt suffocated and almost laughed out of anger!

She had not expected herself to be so valuable in Song Yuling’s eyes!

Ning Bangguo wanted to say something when he saw Ning Yuan coming in from the corner of his eye.

“Yuanyuan is back?”

Ning Yuan looked at Song Yuling and Ning Bangguo and called out calmly, “Uncle, Auntie.”

Song Yuling was still angry and ignored Ning Yuan.

Ye Bangguo walked in front of Ning Yuan and said gently, “Yuanyuan, President Li called and said that you’re moving out. I’m worried about you if you move out alone.”

“I want to move somewhere closer to the broadcasting company. I’ve been busy with work recently and I’m a little tired from running back and forth.”

“Shall I get you a car?”

“What car? Shiyu wants to change into a sports car, but you haven’t even changed it for her!” Song Yuling glared at Ning Yuan unhappily. CEO Li had already said that if he didn’t let Ning Yuan move out, he would stop working with Ning Corporation.

What a little vixen. She had just met President Li and he was already smitten!

Song Yuling said coldly, “You can move out, but you have to think of a way to get President Li to fork out more money!”

Ning Yuan chuckled. “If Auntie wants more money, I think that selling Shiyu might be more valuable than me.” Ning Yuan glanced at Ning Shiyu, who was coming in from the door. “After all, she’s more likable than men.”

Song Yuling and Ning Shiyu’s expressions changed.

“Ning Yuan, you dare to insult my daughter?” Song Yuling raised her hand, wanting to swing it at Ning Yuan’s face.

Ning Bangguo grabbed Song Yuling’s wrist. “Are you done hitting the child every day?”

Seeing that Ning Bangguo was really getting angry, Ning Shiyu hurried over and shot a look at Song Yuling.

Her relationship with Lu Ran had just been confirmed and was not stable yet. She did not want Ning Bangguo to know that she had snatched Ning Yuan’s boyfriend.

Ning Yuan did not stay in the living room for long and went to the room on the third floor to pack her luggage.

Not long after, Ning Shiyu came over and leaned against the door, looking at Ning Yuan, who was packing her luggage.

When Ning Yuan looked up, she saw the diamond necklace around Ning Shiyu’s neck.

Her pupils constricted slightly.

Lu Ran had designed that necklace himself. He had shown her the design draft and said that he would give it to her after the design was done.

The pendant was in the shape of a love pendant, indicating his love for her.

She had not seen the finished necklace. The day after they broke up, it appeared on Ning Shiyu’s neck.

His love was really cheap!

Humiliation and anger rose in Ning Yuan’s chest and the surging emotions seemed to want to set her on fire.

Ning Shiyu looked at the change in emotions in Ning Yuan’s eyes and a smug and provocative smile appeared on her lips. “I heard from my mother that you’ve made up with President Li. Don’t worry, I won’t snatch President Li from you.”

Ning Shiyu raised her hand and touched the necklace around her neck. “But apart from President Li, you can’t find a better man, right? I still don’t like older men.”

Ning Yuan packed her luggage and carried it to the door. Looking at Ning Shiyu, who was full of pride, she smiled coldly. “If I find another young and handsome man, will you abandon Lu Ran?”

“So what if I am? So what if I’m not?” Ning Shiyu laughed. “If you have the ability, find someone I can’t snatch away. However, men will only feel bored after being with a woman like you for a long time.”

“Lu Ran told me last night that you’re beautiful but being with you is boring!”

Ning Yuan’s long eyelashes moved slightly and she took a step closer to Ning Shiyu, her red lips curling up slightly. “Okay, let’s see if you have the ability to steal the man I find next time!”

Ning Shiyu looked at Ning Yuan’s departing figure and laughed in disdain.

She was really too lazy to pry open that President Li who was in his forties!

….

Ning Yuan did not let Ning Bangguo send her back. She dragged her suitcase and left the Ning family, walking aimlessly on the road.

After walking for some time, a sports car suddenly stopped beside her.

The car window was lowered and a beautiful and sweet face appeared in Ning Yuan’s sight.

“Ning Yuan.”

“Tiantian?”

Ye Tian pushed open the door and got out of the car. She was stunned when she saw Ning Yuan with tears at the corner of her eyes.

In her impression, Ning Yuan was the kind of person who would break her teeth and swallow her tears no matter how difficult it was. It was rare for her to cry.

“What’s wrong? Did something happen?”

Ning Yuan quickly sorted out her emotions and shook her head. “I’m fine. The sand just blew into my eyes.”

Ye Tian did not ask anything. Seeing the suitcase in Ning Yuan’s hand, she asked, “Where are you going?”

“I’m planning to find a house near the broadcasting station.”

“You haven’t found it, have you?”

“We’ll stay in the dormitory first.”

Ye Tian opened the trunk. “Put your luggage up first. I’ll take you.”

“It’s alright. I’ll take a taxi later.”

“Don’t stand on ceremony with me.”

Ning Yuan could only nod.

When the car was approaching the broadcasting station, Ye Tian did not drive in, but turned a corner and drove to a high-end district not far from the broadcasting station.

“Tiantian, not here.”

Ye Tian stopped the sports car under a tall building and took Ning Yuan’s suitcase, taking her to a luxurious apartment upstairs.

“No one lives in this apartment. It’s close to the broadcasting station. How about I rent it to you?” Ye Tian knew Ning Yuan’s personality. If she let her stay for free, she would definitely not stay there.

“Tiantian, to be honest, I can’t afford to rent such an expensive apartment.”

Ye Tian smiled and shook her head. “I’ll give you a 30% discount.”

“You can’t…”

“It’s empty here anyway.” Ye Tian pulled Ning Yuan to tour the house, smiling sweetly. “If you’re satisfied, you can stay here tonight.”

Ning Yuan wanted to say something, but she heard Ye Tian say, “I’m meeting Gu Yang for dinner. I can’t stay here for long.” Ye Tian handed a bunch of keys to Ning Yuan and told her the password to the fingerprint lock. “Don’t stand on ceremony with me.”

Ning Yuan had no choice but to stay for the time being.

She paid Ye Tian the rent at a 50% discount.

50% was already a high price for her. She could only stay here for a month and if she had time, she would find another apartment.

Her life was back on track and she did not need to return to the Ning family. Ning Yuan devoted herself to her work.

She worked overtime every day until after ten o’clock. This day was stormy and she was almost drenched when she returned to the apartment. She went into the bathroom to take a bath.

After showering, she realized that she had not brought her pajamas and came out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her.

She was staying in the guest room beside the master bedroom. She was about to push the door open when the master bedroom door was suddenly opened and a tall figure appeared in front of Ning Yuan.

She trembled in fear and took two steps back.

The towel almost fell.
