specially when it came to the expressions on girls' faces, which were too obvious. He blinked, feeling a pang of ruthlessness, but still managed to say, "I don't usually chat much, I apologize."He tho...Ning Shu still found it difficult to accept such a power and sex transaction all at once, but if next time, Jin Cheng blames him again, I'm afraid there won't be as much luck as this time. This time someone will help him.

But next time, Jin Cheng settled all those factors beforehand. Then there would only be one outcome awaiting Ning Shu.

Ning Shu couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in her heart. She whispered softly, "Ling Ling, I was being too naive..."

There is no task in the world that can be accomplished without paying a price, just like his deal with Lingling. Lingling helped him come back to life, and he also needs to pay something in return.

And now it wasn't Ning Shu's choice, but he had no other options.

Although that's what I thought, when I considered what kind of person Jin Baiyan was.

Ning Shu couldn't help but lower her long eyelashes, which trembled slightly.

He closed his eyes. No wonder that time at the hotel, the other party had handed him a business card. In the other party's view, he was no different from those people.

But now, the card has been lost by him.

And at that party, Jin Baiyan seemed to be in a bad mood after being provoked by him, and the two left unhappy in the end.

Ning Shu wouldn't be narcissistic enough to think that after being rejected, Jin Baiyan would still have any thoughts about him.

After all, the head of the Jin family sat in that position, and among the people surrounding him, he wasn't lacking.

Ning Shu was silent for a moment. He thought at the time that if he didn't sell himself, there would always be other ways.

But now he has been forced to a desperate situation by Jin Cheng.

He took a deep breath and said, "Lulu, don't you think I missed the two best opportunities"

Lingling said, "Actually, it's not certain. Host, think about it. Since the host was sent to him so easily the first two times, Jin Baiyan might lose interest in the host in a few days."

Ning Shu hesitated for a moment and asked cautiously, "Is that so"

Lingling hummed twice and said, "Host, listen to Lingling's advice. After all, this trick is called feigning disinterest. People ~ won't cherish things that come too easily."

Ning Shu pursed her lips: "But now we don't even have a chance to play hard to get."

"Well, that sounds like it too."

Things have come to this.

Ning Shu regretted it, but there was nothing he could do. He felt that there would always be another chance, and if not, he had to try anyway. After all, if he didn't try, how would he know if there was a turning point

....

Ning Shu quickly moved out of the dormitory. He had found a new place to live, although it wasn't large, it was much better than living in school.

As for work, he plans to finish his current studies first.

After all, Ning Shu still really wants to get the scholarship.

Just over the weekend, Ning Shu received a call from the Ning family.

People from the Ning family asked him to go back for a while.

Ning Shu thought that if the original owner was here, they probably wouldn't refuse. But he felt that since the Ning family didn't give the original owner any responsibility they deserved, there was no need to do all this superficial effort.

When Ning Jia heard that he didn't want to come back, he immediately became upset: "You even learned to talk back now! If Old Master Ning knew, Ning Xiao Shao should know the rules of the house, right"

Ning Shu only then remembered that the Ning family did have their own set of family rules.

Moreover, the original owner was punished with corporal punishment whenever they made mistakes, as it was considered a necessary disciplinary measure due to Mr. Ning's reputation and standing.

He paused for a moment, his voice calm as he said, "I know. I'll go back."

A Jin Cheng has arrived, and Ning Shu doesn't want another Ning family member to cause trouble.

So, when the weekend came around, he made a trip back to his ancestral home at Ning's family.

But to his surprise, Ning Qing had also returned with them.

Ning Shu only saw from afar that Jin Cheng sent Ning Qing back, and then the two kissed. Ning Qing blushed, and then Jin Cheng smirked before closing the car door.

He just drove away.

And Ning Qing also saw Ning Shu who had returned: "Cousin."

His eyes held a mixture of pride and showmanship, fueled by love.

"Just now Ah Cheng sent me back, you should come over and say hello to him."

"If I remember correctly, last time you asked me to stay away from him."

Showed off the diamond studs she was wearing.

Ning Qing smiled faintly and said, "How could it be, big brother I was just talking angrily. I believe you wouldn't be the kind of person who steals other people's boyfriends." She paused for a moment, "You should have seen me kissing Ah Cheng just now..."

"Ah Cheng said that was his first kiss..."

Ning Qing smiled faintly and said, "I thought you would have done everything with Acheng after dating for a year."

Ning Shu: “.......”

I wonder what expression Ning Qing would have if she knew that Jin Cheng had already been involved with so many people.

He paused for a moment, not intending to acknowledge the other person's words, and then turned and walked inside.

Ning Qing followed up and said slowly, "By the way, cousin, you probably don't know why grandpa called us all back."

Ning Shu asked, "Why"

Ning Qing said in a lively tone: "Because the head of the Jin family is having a birthday banquet, they sent an invitation to the Ning family."

He squinted and said, “You probably don't know, the head of the Jin family is actually Uncle to Ah Cheng.”

Ning Shu stopped in her tracks, she blinked a few times, unexpectedly, the third chance had arrived again.

"While Ning Qing was still saying, “...Actually, I also mentioned it to Acheng. After all, a few days ago, Acheng told me that his uncle's birthday is coming up.”

"Well, I just mentioned it casually, wanting to go myself. Ah Cheng readily agreed, but who knew, this invitation came straight to our Ning family."

Ning Qing estimated that it was Jin Cheng who went to his uncle's place and pleaded with him.

"You're being too kind, Uncle Jin!"

Ning Shu didn't speak; he was just thinking, if Jin Baiyan sent an invitation to the Ning family, could he go

He pursed his lips slightly, his thoughts drifting far away.

Ning Qing ignored him and went straight into the house. Once inside, the servants naturally ignored Ning Shu and only attended to Ning Qing, as if in the Ning family, only Ning Qing was the legitimate grandson.

The original owner had no room of his own in the Ning family. He lived in a storage room next to the servants' quarters.

After all, in the Ning family's eyes, the original owner was just a wild child.

As soon as Ning Qing entered the old house, she naturally went to take credit.

But he concealed his identity with Jin Cheng, only saying that because of him, Jin Cheng mentioned him to his uncle.

So the Jin family sent an invitation to the Ning family.

In the past, there were no invitations from the Ning family.

Because the head of the Jin family doesn't pay much attention to this day, he only holds a birthday banquet occasionally. Those invited don't include them because although the Ning family is wealthy, they have no close relationship with the head of the Jin family, and they are not on his level.

Although Jin Cheng was only a child of a branch family, he was still related to the head of the Jin family by blood.

Therefore, the Ning family has always taught Ning Qing to get along well with Jin Cheng.

It makes sense now.

Old Master Ning's smile at the corner of his lips became increasingly satisfied, and he said to Ning Qing: "Remember, get to know Jin Cheng more often. It will always be beneficial for the Ning family."

Ning Qing blushed and sweetly responded.

After all, Jin Cheng is his boyfriend now.

Elder Ning frowned and said, "By the way, call Ning Shu over here."

Ning Qing was surprised and quickly asked, "Grandpa, what did you call your nephew for"

Although Master Ning was displeased, he still explained the reason. It was simply that their Ning family had taken in this illegitimate child, and if they weren't all present at Jin Baiyan's birthday banquet, it would be a lack of respect for the head of the Jin family.

Ning Qing said instead, “Grandpa, cousin… after all, he’s a bastard son. If he went, wouldn't that be disrespectful to the head of the Jin family”

"You don't understand, old man Ning shook his head. "That invitation on the card carries a deep meaning. Even if he's an illegitimate son, he has to be brought along."

After all, they were invited because they were from the Ning family. Even if Ning Shu was a illegitimate child, he was still their kin.

...instead, Ning Qing was not among them. ...

After all, although he is the most beloved grandson of Old Master Ning, he is not from the main family.

But since this invitation was because of Ning Qing, then Ning Qing naturally had to go together as well.

Ning Qing was unhappy, but since her grandpa had spoken, she could only suppress her feelings.

When Ning Shu was told by Old Master Ning that he would also be going, he let out a sigh of relief. After all, if the Ning family hadn't taken him along, he would have had to figure something out.

On the day of the birthday party.

Ning Shu followed the Ning family to Jin Baiyan's birthday party.

While Ning Qing didn't go with them, she instead went to find Jin Cheng.

He was dressed very formally today, after all, he is good-looking. Jin Cheng couldn't take his eyes off him at once, after all, he had liked Ning Qing for a long time.

The head of the Jin family hasn't made an appearance yet.

Ning Qing had been very curious about her uncle, Jin Cheng, since long ago. It wasn't until a handsome man appeared that she was immediately captivated.

Just like the reports said, but in reality, the head of the Jin family is very handsome. And he's even taller than Jin Cheng, who is already over six feet tall.

Jin Baiyan doesn't seem very cold on the surface, but he has a powerful aura that can't be ignored.

From afar, his figure was impeccable.

Ning Qing couldn't take her eyes off him. To be honest, Jin Cheng was pretty good-looking. He resembled Jin Baiyan a little, but not exactly. Jin Baiyan's face was more perfect, and most importantly, the maturity and handsomeness he possessed was something Jin Cheng at his age couldn't compare to.

His heart skipped a few beats for no reason.

.....

And this side, Ning Shu followed behind the Ning family. The Ning family had given him all sorts of instructions before he came, telling him to best not make any jokes at the banquet.
