Chapter 222 I Want to Beat Him Up
Although the weather in November was still autumn, the occasional wind blowing on the face felt a little stinging, but Nangong Jin felt cold, very cold, and the coldness penetrated into his bones.
She walked on the road in a daze, with her eyes downcast and her arms folded, not saying a word. King looked at her pale face with some confusion in his eyes.
"Nangong Jin, what's wrong? Why do you seem even more unhappy after coming back? Huh?"
He reached out and held the other person's shoulders, forcing her to meet his gaze. The girl's eyes were filled with tears, her lips were slightly pursed, and her expression was extremely aggrieved.
"You, what's wrong? Huh?"
King was somewhat at a loss as he helped her wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, while gently patting her back.
"Did I say something wrong? Or did I do something to upset you? It's all my fault, stop crying."
He hugged her tightly. He was fearless and would not frown or blink even if his head was bleeding or he was shot several times. But he could not bear to see Nangong Jin's tears. It was more painful than if his heart was cut into pieces by a knife.
People were coming and going on the road, but in King's eyes, there was only one Nangong Jin at this moment.
"Miss, you are finally back!"
Hearing the voice coming from behind him, King turned around and saw that it was Nangong Jin's little bodyguard.
"Miss, what's wrong with you? Who bullied you?!" Seventeen looked at King angrily.
"Kid, if you keep staring at me like that, I'll knock you down."
"I don't care who it is, if he dares to bully the young lady, I will never let him go."
Listening to the tense conversation between the two, Nangong Jin raised his head and sniffed, "I'm fine, Seventeen, King is very good to me, why are you here?"
Hearing Nangong Jin's question, Seventeen became a little embarrassed. He stammered and took something out of his pocket, looking at her unnaturally.
"This, yes, the president asked me to give it to you."
Nangong Jin was stunned when she heard this. She stared at the red invitation closely. She probably knew what it was...
King snatched it away, and what caught his eye were a few large characters: INVITATION.
He opened it with some annoyance. The general meaning of it was to invite Nangong Jin to attend the engagement party of He Zichen and Qi Xue.
King was furious and crumpled the invitation into a ball. "Asshole!!!"
He finally knew why Nangong Jin was crying, and he couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. He shouldn't have come back so soon.
"Nangong Jin, you still have me. Stop thinking about him, okay? Let's go home."
King felt so distressed when he saw her distraught appearance that he had cursed He Zichen hundreds of times in his heart.
He picked her up and rushed home.
This is a high-end residential area in the city, in the financial center where every inch of land is valuable. A large flat costs nearly 100 million yuan.
And this was just something King bought for the convenience of accompanying Nangong Jin.
But at this time, two uninvited guests were standing at the door.
"How do you know this?"
King looked at the two men in front of him with displeasure on his face. They were so damn annoying.
"You secretly kidnapped Nangong Jin last time, and I haven't even settled the score with you yet."
Gu Jingxing glanced at Nangong Jin in his arms, "What's wrong with her? Did you bully her? Put her down."
As he said that, he walked forward and prepared to snatch Nangong Jin away. Unexpectedly, King quickly took a step back and said, "You ask even though you know the answer. Who else could make her do this except that bastard?"
Qi Qin, who was standing aside, glanced at Nangong Jin and suddenly felt that his position was a little awkward.
“Let’s talk after we go in first!”
Nangong Jin was exhausted from running around for a long time and fell asleep without realizing it.
King placed her carefully in the bedroom, and after settling her down, he came to the living room and slumped on the sofa.
"I really can't swallow this anger, how about I tie up He Zichen right now and beat him up?"
He clenched his fists, looking eager to try. Qi Qin said coldly, "Sorry, I won't let you do anything stupid. He is my brother-in-law."
King knew this method wouldn't work, of course. He was just very unhappy, "What do you two want to do by coming to my place?"
“Oh, speaking of this, shouldn’t you give Nangong Jin freedom? I remember it was fair competition, and you broke our agreement.”
"I didn't make any promises with you guys, just go away, it's really annoying to watch."
Gu Jingxing didn't care, "Do you think Nangong Jin will attend tomorrow's banquet?"
"How about I take her back to Dian City? Otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself and beat up that bastard."
"She won't leave." Qi Qin stood up and looked towards the bedroom. "Stay with her. I'm leaving first."
King looked at the two annoying men in front of him, wishing they would leave quickly. He glanced at Gu Jingxing and said, "Hey, why are you still here?"
"Me? Of course I have to stay here with her. At least I'm her ex-fiancé, so I seem to be more qualified than you."
"You..." Every time King argued with him, he didn't get any benefit, so he simply ignored him.
"up to you."
Nangong Jin slept for a very long time. Her brows were furrowed, as if she was trapped in some terrible nightmare, and beads of sweat kept oozing from her forehead.
"Nangong Jin, Nangong Jin, wake up..."
King looked at her painful and uneasy appearance and quickly woke her up.
"No!!!" Suddenly, she yelled, sat up, and gasped heavily.
"King? Where am I?" She touched her forehead and looked at the other person with a complicated expression.
"This is my home. You've slept for so long. You must be hungry. Let's go eat."
At this time, Gu Jingxing pushed the door open and walked in, "It's time to eat."
"Why are you here too?" Nangong Jin rubbed his head, feeling a little headache.
"I just happened to be taking a two-day break, so I came to see you. Let's go and have dinner."
Nangong Jin, who was still in a daze, didn't think about the other implications of his words.
The three of them were eating together peacefully when the doorbell rang.
"Today is really... I'll go open the door!" King frowned, and the feeling of annoyance in his heart became more and more intense.
"Here you are! Why are you here again?" King looked at the person in front of him and the gift box in his hand, and suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Who?"
Before he could come to his senses, he heard Nangong Jin's footsteps behind him, "Seventeen, why are you here?"
"Miss, I, I, the president asked me to give this to you!" After saying that, he anxiously stuffed the gift box into Nangong Jin's arms, and then quickly disappeared without a trace.
"Why is Seventeen acting so weird?" She looked at the gift box in her arms, her eyes flickering slightly. When King heard that it was another gift from He Zichen, he got angry and wanted to snatch it away and throw it away.
"Hey, don't, don't throw it, I'm fine."
Nangong Jin took the gift box and went straight back to the bedroom without saying a word. She opened it carefully, and what came into view was an off-white one-shoulder lace dress. The rhinestones on the dress looked particularly shiny under the light.
She carefully stroked the exquisite embroidery on it, murmuring: He Zichen, what are you thinking about?
