Chapter 412: Really Avoiding Them

Nan Jiaojiao rarely fell into deep contemplation.

She was pondering how to preserve the pure heart of an innocent girl.

But after much thought, there was only one reason.

“There’s no way, Uncle Three is too handsome, I just can’t control myself.”

Xu Tingting, who was naturally quick-tongued, hadn’t expected Nan Jiaojiao to actually respond, and with such an explosive answer at that.

She blushed and didn’t manage to say anything before Nan Jiaojiao added earnestly, “Song Jin’s appearance shouldn’t be enough to overwhelm your self-control.”

Xu Tingting: “…”

Song Jin wasn’t ugly, really not ugly.

It was just that, compared to Bo Yanching and Xu Shu, his looks were slightly inferior.

Yet he had just graduated and still possessed a youthful aura, which was the most precious quality.

Thinking it was one thing, but Xu Tingting didn’t dare speak out.

She was shy and couldn’t follow up on Nan Jiaojiao’s comment.

Just then, Ye Wanting sat beside her, and Xu Tingting caught the chance to ask her about the bandage on her head that she noticed when she arrived: “Wanting, what happened to you?”

Ye Wanting briefly recounted her encounter from the day.

Xu Tingting was indignant: “This Song family, it’s bad enough they’ve taken over your mother’s family’s property, but how could Song Yutang still have the audacity to trouble you!”

Ye Wanting gave a wry smile, “There’s no helping it, I’ve been avoiding them as much as possible.”

“I’ll get you two bodyguards.”

That was the best solution Xu Tingting could come up with.

Ye Wanting declined: “No need, the Song family probably won’t bother me again.

Brother Chi has already taken care of it for me.”

“If you’re in danger, remember to call us.”

Ye Wanting nodded in gratitude.

Suddenly, Nan Jiaojiao asked, “Why did you start working at the restaurant by the river?

Aren’t you at Minglun anymore?”

“I took too many days off, so Minglun fired me.

This restaurant is nice, the boss is great, and knows I’m a student.

He lets me prioritize my studies and come help when I’m free, paying me by the hour.

I also plan to deliver takeout during the day when I don’t have classes to save up more money and repay Brother Chi’s loan sooner.”

“You don’t have to rush with Yaen Chi’s loan.

It’s okay even if you don’t repay it.

Now that your mother is out of the hospital, just spend time with her and don’t worry about finding jobs everywhere,” Nan Jiaojiao advised.

Ye Wanting knew Nan Jiaojiao was concerned about her, so she didn’t say anything else, but she was determined to repay Yaen Chi’s loan.

She wasn’t related to him, so why should she default on a debt?

She would feel guilty each time she saw him.

Nan Jiaojiao, however, quietly estimated that what Ye Wanting earned from odd jobs in half a month wasn’t comparable to the commission from opening a bottle of wine at Minglun.

Instead of struggling so much, it was better for her to return to work at Minglun.

She planned to make a trip there some time to see if there weren’t any colleagues who had given Ye Wanting a hard time, and if it was clear, then a return could be possible.

At ten in the evening, Bo Yanching started ushering people out.

Chu Yao hadn’t sobered up from her drink and had fallen asleep on the carpet.

Nan Jiaojiao and the other ladies couldn’t lift her, so, in the end, Mo Tingshen picked her up, asked Nan Jiaojiao for the downstairs passcode, and carried her away.

Xu Tingting and Ye Wanting together tidied up the snacks.

When leaving, Xu Tingting rode in Xu Shu’s car, and Yaen Chi, having drunk alcohol, called a designated driver and let Ye Wanting go in his car.

“Miss Lu, how will you get home?

Shall I give you a lift?”

Lu Zhenzhen, wrapping her coat around her, hugged her arms across her chest, her forearm sporting a small Chanel-style purse, said, “No need, Ah Zhe is coming to pick me up.”

“You’re waiting for Mr.

Gao to come over?” Yaen Chi uncharacteristically made a polite comment.

Lu Zhenzhen looked at him teasingly, “What, do you want my Ah Zhe to catch an adulterer?”
