Chapter 445: Chapter 445 Golden Tycoon (10)
 

“Jin Ning, you used to do whatever you wanted, showing no regard for anyone else. But look at you now, do you think you’re still the same Jin Ning as before?”

Another voice came from upstairs.

The sound of footsteps approached with a patter.

The well-dressed man stood on the steps, looking down at Jin Ning from his higher position, as if Jin Ning were an ant groveling at his feet.

Jin Ning glanced casually, “Wei Linxuan, is eavesdropping addictive, or is that just the family business?”

Wei Linxuan’s expression darkened with arrogance, “Jin Ning, do you know what I hate about you the most?”

“Deep love breeds deep hatred, you need to face your feelings,” Jin Ning spoke calmly, as if they were good friends casually chatting for many years.

Wei Linxuan: “…”

Crazy!

What feelings does he need to face?!

The thing he hated most was Jin Ning’s mouth; it was infuriating.

“From now on, you’ll have to spend your life in a wheelchair, not even a man. Jin Ning, do you think there’s any point in living?”

That was a personal attack from Wei Linxuan.

However, Jin Ning’s eyes did not change in the slightest, “As long as my living upsets you, then it’s worthwhile.”

“…”

Wei Linxuan took several steps down the stairs, pulled the woman into his arms, and looked at Jin Ning provocatively, “Jin Ning, your woman is now by my side. Do you think with your current state, you have any capability to compete with me?”

“Did you graduate from elementary school, Wei Linxuan?”

“…”

“Oh, I forgot, you finished last in your class.”

“…” Wei Linxuan clenched his fists, veins throbbing in anger.

What ancient history is he bringing up!

You’re a top student, aren’t you great!

Jin Ning ignored Wei Linxuan’s angry look, “This lady has nothing to do with me, so where does the term ‘my woman’ come from?”

The man’s voice was low and elegant, his words were polite, but what he said was exceptionally piercing.

The woman’s face turned pale, and when she looked at Jin Ning, it was as if she was looking at a monster.

However, this was still better.

When with Jin Chen, Jin Ning wouldn’t even bother with surface politeness.

Wei Linxuan’s fighting strength was no match for Jin Ning; he’d get angry and irrational after just a few words.

Suddenly, Wei Linxuan moved closer to Jin Ning with a malicious smile on his face.

“Jin Ning, I heard it’s not just your legs that are disabled…”

Only then did Jin Ning’s eyes grow darker.

Wei Linxuan’s hand rested on the wheelchair, his confidence seemingly flooding back.

“Wei Linxuan,” the woman called out with a frown.

Wei Linxuan turned to look at her, “Sweetheart, you still want to speak up for him? He never even spared you a glance before, trampling your feelings underfoot. Have you forgotten the humiliation he gave you?”

The woman was immediately silenced.

Wei Linxuan turned back, “Jin Ning, why is it that even in this state, you are still so annoying?”

Wei Linxuan pushed the wheelchair towards the edge of the staircase.

Jin Ning had no reaction.

The wheelchair stopped at the edge.

If Wei Linxuan let go even slightly, the wheelchair would tumble down… taking the man with it.

[Hidden task: Please obtain a Good Person Card from Jin Ning for Miss.]

Chuzheng: “…”

I’m just… watching the show!

Why do I get tangled up in this mess?!

Chuzheng silently cursed herself, that’ll teach you to not mind your own business, watching dramas!

Now look at the trouble you’ve gotten into.

“Wei Linxuan, this could lead to someone’s death!” the woman said, a bit urgently, “Stop it now.”

“Don’t worry, our Mr. Jin has a strong will to live,” Wei Linxuan spoke with a sinister tone, “Beg me now, and I might let you off. How about that?”

Clang—

The door to the emergency exit was forced open.

Wei Linxuan instinctively turned around, but before he could see who it was, someone pulled the wheelchair away from his hands, and his left shoulder was forcefully pushed, causing him to fall to the side.

The wheelchair retreated from beside him.

In front of him were the stairs.

Wei Linxuan’s pupils dilated as he uncontrollably fell down.

The woman’s scream echoed in the stairwell for a long time.

–

Chuzheng, pushing Jin Ning, quickly returned to the corridor, turned the corner, and took the service elevator down.

From beginning to end, the man being pushed by Chuzheng remained silent.

No panic, no fear, no wariness..

It wasn’t until they left the hotel’s main entrance that the man spoke, “Who are you?”

Chuzheng was very indifferent, “A good person, no thanks needed.”

Jin Ning frowned, “Do you know me?”

Chuzheng turned to face him and looked down to ask him, “What’s your name?”

The girl was very young, and her slightly curly hair complemented her palm-sized face, her eyes calm yet clear, untainted by dust.

She was a good-looking girl.

Jin Ning had a moment of distraction.

His lips barely parted, and almost as if possessed, he revealed his name, “… Jin Ning.”

“Now we’ve met,” the girl said calmly. “Chuzheng, that’s my name.”

[Miss, you have ten more minutes, ooh~ It’s going to double soon~~]

That ‘ooh’ was particularly irritating.

Chuzheng pushed him toward the road, Jin Ning frowned, “Where are you taking me?”

Chuzheng said, “I’m in a hurry.”

I’d really like to leave you here, but Bastard won’t let me!

Chuzheng’s concise statement left Jin Ning temporarily unable to find an angle to respond.

Right next to the hotel, a street led to the shopping district. Chuzheng pushed Jin Ning quickly; as the wind brushed his cheeks, Jin Ning felt that she was indeed in a hurry.

But…

Jin Ning watched the girl checking out at the counter. Was her hurry all about shopping?

“That man is really handsome.”

“What a pity, he’s disabled…”

“Yeah, it’s a real shame.”

As Chuzheng was checking out, she heard people nearby pointing and commenting on Jin Ning.

She turned her head for a glance. The man sat composed, paying no attention to the unusual gazes around him, looking with interest at the items in the glass counter.

The store’s crystal chandeliers cast a light that enveloped him.

He looked like a deity standing in the center of a stage, unspeakably beautiful.

Smack—

Chuzheng slammed down the items handed to her by the cashier, and the discussing group of girls instantly fell silent, turning their gaze toward the source of the sound.

The girl was looking at them, her expressionless face a bit frightening.

They didn’t even get a clear look at what the girl looked like, but that intimidating gaze was enough to make them quickly lower their heads and leave the store dejectedly.

The cashier, not having seen Chuzheng’s face, also sensed that this customer was somewhat displeased, and became even more cautious and gentle in her handling.

“Wrap that one up,” Chuzheng pointed to the counter Jin Ning was looking at.

“Sure, which one would you like?” There were several models in that counter.

“…” Who knew which one Jin Ning was looking at? Consequently, Chuzheng had to settle for second best: “All of them.”

The cashier took a deep breath, her smile growing wider, “Right away, please wait a moment.”

The more items sold, the larger the commission for the cashier; of course they were happy.

The cashier wrapped up everything and handed it to Chuzheng, who, finding too many boxes inconvenient, asked them to put everything into one box.

Cashier: “…”

This young lady was beautiful, with an elegant and noble air, clearly well-educated, no doubt the child of a wealthy family. Why then did her actions resemble those of a newly rich and coarse person—so crude?
