Chapter 216: She Asked You Out?

The car window in front of Huo Shi slowly rolled up, and his angry face was reflected in it.
...I just don’t believe that Huo Jinyan will be able to escape this time!
Lin Ci only left after she had dinner at their home.
Shen Yunci still wanted her to stay, but she remembered that she had to prepare for school tomorrow, so she did not ask her to stay over lest she troubled her.
When she left, Lu Ning sent her out.
They chatted as they went downstairs.
When they spoke of the sports meet on Friday, Lin Ci was still looking forward to it.
“There are so many events this time, and there’ll be all kinds of them; it will definitely be especially exciting.”
Lu Ning nodded. “Yes, we’ll definitely be able to find something to participate in for the competition.”
“Definitely! The two of us must win!”
Lu Ning laughed and looked at her.
Seeing her laugh, Lin Ci was upset. “Why? Aren’t you confident? Even if you don’t have confidence, you have to win! If you can participate in some event, you have to participate! Coming in first will anger Lù Yue’an to death!”
Lu Ning turned to her. “Lù Yue’an?
Lin Ci gawked at her, as if expecting better from her. “Are you stupid? During the sports meet, your parents will be going and both your families will be there. Lù Yue’an will certainly try her damnedest to suppress you. When the time comes, just watch. As long as you participate in an event, she will definitely participate! So work hard! Get first place for me!”
Lu Ning smiled and nodded. “There’s no reason for me to fight with her.”
Lin Ci was unhappy. “Why would there be nothing to fight for? If she wants to suppress you in every way, you have to fight back!”
Lu Ning looked at her. “When the opponent isn’t on the same level, fighting will only degrade myself. There’s no need for such a thing.” Lin Ci looked at her in surprise and chuckled. “You’re so nasty. I like it!”
The two of them walked out of the neighborhood with a smile.
“Just send me here. I’ll walk out by myself.”
“No way, you’re pretty as a flower. It’s safer for me to escort you out.”
Lin Ci smiled as she continued walking. “You’re clearly in more danger than me.”
The two of them chatted and laughed as they walked to the intersection.
Lu Ning’s phone suddenly rang.
She looked at the number and raised her eyebrows in surprise.
“Who is it?”
“Sun Qian.”
Just as Lin Ci was wondering, Lu Ning picked up the phone.
“Hello?”
Sun Qian heaved a sigh of relief when she heard Lu Ning’s voice. She was afraid that Lu Ning would not answer the call.
“Lu Ning, are you free next weekend? Can I ask you out?”
Lu Ning thought for a moment. “I’m not free. Find someone else.”
Sun Qian hurriedly added, “Wait, wait! I know you have a sports meet next week. The week after next is fine too.”
Lu Ning was actually very curious; ever since she was chased out of the Lù family, everyone in that circle had kept a respectful distance from her. Why did Sun Qian become even more enthusiastic than before?
“Sun Qian, you clearly know that my surname is no longer Lù and that I can’t bring anything to your Sun family. Why do you still ask me out?”
Lu Ning was straightforward and asked directly.
Sun Qian was startled for a moment. “No, that’s not it. I don’t want anything from you…”
She was a little anxious but did not say anything. After being stunned for a long time, she said directly, “I, I just wanted to bring you to the racecourse. You haven’t seen Linlang for a long time, right?”
Lu Ning was taken aback for a moment.
It had indeed been a long time since she last saw Linlang.
Sun Qian knew that there was a chance when she did not hear her respond immediately; at least Lu Ning was considering it.
Lu Ning thought for a moment and said, “Okay, next weekend then.”
After hanging up, Lin Ci looked at Lu Ning. “She asked you out?”
“Yes. ”
“Where are we going? I’m going too!”
