Chapter 439: Chapter 438 She’s Not Even Spared

A few days later, after shooting a film, Ji Xinghang gave Luo Ning a look.

The two met in the underground parking garage inside a nanny car.

Luo Ning asked, "Is there something new?"

Ji Xinghang nodded, "I’ve gone out with Zhen Da a couple of times; she’s been indifferent to me, and it was always me who asked her out."

To resolve the issue sooner, he was working hard, enduring the nausea to deal with that woman.

"She’s pretty much dropped her guard and caution against me. Now she’s switching strategies, and I suspect she’ll soon show her true colors."

"Xia Mian’s situation is progressing even faster."

He took out his phone and pulled up a photo Xia Mian had sent him.

"That woman gave him a gift yesterday, take a look."

Luo Ning took the phone and saw a photo of an obsidian bracelet.

"That woman had some issues at home recently, her father fell seriously ill and didn’t have enough money for the hospital. Xia Mian covered the expenses, so she gave him this bracelet."

"The woman told Xia Mian that obsidian protects against evil and brings good luck. She even claimed that the bracelet had been blessed by a high monk at the temple, and wished for Xia Mian’s safety and good karma for his kind deeds."

Luo Ning chuckled sarcastically, "Protect against evil and bring good luck, more like the other way around."

"I’ll draw a talisman for you. Pass it to Xia Mian privately, and let him wear that bracelet for a while before I take care of it."

With her talisman to maintain it, Xia Mian’s luck wouldn’t drain away.

She then looked at Ji Xinghang and said, "It’s likely Zhen Da’s family will soon run into a problem where they’ll need your help; you should bleed a little for them first."

These people all had deep schemes but were easy to guess.

Ji Xinghang nodded, "Alright."

Just as Luo Ning anticipated, three days later, Zhen Da’s brother was in a severe car accident, and a large sum was needed for his surgery and post-operative recovery, which she couldn’t afford.

Appearing desperate, she sought out Ji Xinghang to borrow money.

Ji Xinghang lent her the money, and Zhen Da insisted on writing an IOU, claiming she would repay him once she had the funds, showing pride and independence.

After her brother’s surgery, Zhen Da, to thank Ji Xinghang, gave him a pair of gemstone cufflinks.

She also hinted that she hoped Ji Xinghang would wear them often.

The same day, Ji Xinghang showed the cufflinks to Luo Ning, who confirmed they were problematic.

Luo Ning drew a talisman for Ji Xinghang as well and advised him to wear the cufflinks.

During filming, Zhen Da saw Ji Xinghang wearing the cufflinks she’d given, and pride mixed with sweetness gleamed in her eyes.

Although she was ordered to get close to Ji Xinghang and win him over.

Yet Ji Xinghang was not only wealthy and handsome but also a top trendsetter, with a personality that was not gentle but wild and assertive, sometimes even roguish, which actually made Zhen Da genuinely fall for him.

Moreover, if she could marry into a wealthy family, she wouldn’t have to struggle as a minor star anymore.

Although she was hot and cold towards Ji Xinghang, pretending to be disinterested, in her heart, she wished she could stick by his side every day, finding his handsome face appetizing.

What a pity that last time at the hotel, Ji Xinghang didn’t sleep with her when he came to her room.

If she wasn’t worried about affecting the plan, she would have rather thrown herself at him.

As Ji Xinghang gradually became more tender toward Zhen Da, sometimes even taking her out with his friends.

During filming, Zhen Da would deliberately find angles to speak with Ji Xinghang, creating a palpable sense of flirtation.

And it was always when Luo Ning was there, obviously trying to provoke her.

Luo Ning cooperated accordingly, becoming increasingly cold and hostile toward Zhen Da, making everyone aware of her disgust.

Far from being angry, Zhen Da felt even more triumphant, believing this to be a display of Luo Ning’s jealousy.

What does it matter if Luo Ning is a top-tier leading actress? Ji Xinghang was still taken from her.

If only the person trying to seduce Lu had been quicker, Luo Ning would have faced a more picturesque downfall, with all the quality men by her side gone.

This day, Lu Xun finished shooting in the morning and went to arrange the breaking of the Array in the afternoon. All the Arrays laid out across the big city had been successfully locked and were ready to be dealt with.

Xinghang had a commercial to discuss and followed Fang Yan to the meeting, so Luo Ning drove home by herself.

As she was about to turn at an intersection, she was suddenly hit by a sports car.

The collision wasn’t severe, and Luo Ning braked to a halt.

She wasn’t sure whether the other party had done it on purpose, so after stopping the car, she opened the door and got out.

A young, handsome guy also got out of the sports car, looking bold and arrogant.

What made Luo Ning first suspect that there was something off about him was that he gave her the vibe of a Ji Xinghang knockoff.

Although they didn’t look alike, their auras and certain mannerisms were incredibly similar.

Luo Ning pretended to be stunned by the handsome guy for a moment, catching his attention as he approached.

The handsome guy, seeming not to notice Luo Ning’s stupor, walked up with an impatient expression and asked, "Sorry, my car skidded. Are you okay?"

His impatient look was even more reminiscent of Ji Xinghang.

Only then did Luo Ning seem to snap back to reality, "I’m fine, but you still need to be careful with your driving."

The handsome guy stated in an indisputable tone, "I’ve damaged your car, I’ll have someone take it to get repaired."

Luo Ning found it amusing inside, this guy’s imitation was on point.

She showed a flicker of reminiscence before quickly composing herself, "The car you damaged should naturally be repaired."

The handsome guy left his contact information, made a call, and had someone take Luo Ning’s car away.

He mentioned he would contact her after it was repaired.

Luo Ning graciously agreed and even added the handsome guy as a friend.

After that, the handsome guy displayed even more impatience, yet offered to give Luo Ning a ride with a rough sort of gentleness, which she gracefully declined.

He ended up calling a taxi for Luo Ning.

After getting into the taxi, Luo Ning sent the guy’s business card to Lu Xinji, asking him to look into the person.

Then, with a touch of mischief, she sent the video recorded by the dash cam in her car, which captured the recent incident, to Ji Xinghang.

After sending the video, she sent another message.

Luo Ning: You used to be exactly this kind of a dog. This handsome guy is the spitting image of you.

Having just watched the video and feeling disgruntled, Ji Xinghang couldn’t help but have mixed emotions after reading Luo Ning’s message.

Seeing the person in the video, he realized how dog-like his past self was, an appearance that even now seemed deserving of a beating.

Then, he sent a message back to Luo Ning.

Ji Xinghang: A brave man doesn’t boast about his past bravery, only to become tearful when mentioned.

Ji Xinghang: This guy is clearly trying to seduce you, even imitating me, the shameless thing.

He thought to himself, let’s see how Lu Dog handles this.

Luo Ning laughed.

Luo Ning: Don’t worry, now you’re my brother; they’ve miscalculated.

Those people probably still think she’s hung up on Ji Xinghang, that their childhood friendship and youthful times are etched in her heart, which was why they chose a similar knockoff to seduce her.

Luo Ning really hadn’t expected that they wouldn’t even spare her, unsure if they were overly confident or just too arrogantly inflated.

Ji Xinghang: [Crying fox emoji]

Ji Xinghang: They should’ve found someone to impersonate Lu Dog; I’ve already been floored on the beach by Lu Dog.

It would be more fun watching Lu Dog with his black heart to see if his scheme breaks down.

Luo Ning: ...Get lost!

The two of them sent messages back and forth, poking fun at each other.

By the time Luo Ning got out of the taxi, there was already a call coming in from Lu Xun.
