Chapter 134 The Overlord Insists on Using Me as Bai Yueguang’s Stand-in (22)
Ni Fang was wearing a white long skirt, and when she turned around, the hem of her skirt fluttered up, like a butterfly about to fly.
She looked towards the dark gallery and asked softly, "Why did you think of meeting here? Could it be that this art center is also under your name?"
"It's one of the businesses I invested in, but this gallery is the opportunity for us to meet for the first time. It's also a kind of ritual to meet here."
As soon as Lu Wenyu finished speaking, the lights in the gallery suddenly lit up. The sudden light made Ni Fang feel a little dazed, as if the door to another world suddenly opened to her.
The door of the gallery was opened from the inside, and a young man leaned against the glass door and said, "Mr. Lu, everything inside has been arranged."
At Lu Wenyu's signal, Ni Fang walked in side by side with him.
It was not until the two of them sat down in the art salon that the young man turned his eyes to Ni Fang and began to formally introduce himself, "Hello, Miss Ni Fang, I am Mr. Lu's personal lawyer."
A business card with black characters on a white background was held out to her. Ni Fang took it and put it in her bag. "Lawyer Chen, I want you to help me draft a document for transferring the creditor's rights. I have a record here, which lists all my father's creditors. I hope that while paying off his debts, I can become his only creditor."
"Because it is not appropriate for me to come forward now, I hope you can help me with this matter."
Lu Wenyu picked up the warm teacup on the table and took a sip.
Lawyer Chen took a quick look at the name and amount on it and said in a low voice, "It's rare to see a daughter become the father's debtor. Even if you want to enforce it through legal means in the future, it will most likely be rejected due to blood relationship. You still have to think about this clearly."
Ni Fang shook his head. "It doesn't matter. Even if it's not for the money, it's another handle to blackmail him."
What's more, she and Ni Mingdong have no blood relationship, so she doesn't have to worry about not getting the money back. However, it is too early to say this now.
Lu Wenyu raised his eyes, his eyes full of concern, "Your father plans to let you pay off his debts?"
"Yes." Ni Fang nodded without changing his expression.
"If there's anything I can help you with..."
Ni Fang interrupted, "You've helped me a lot, let's forget about the money for now," she pointed a finger at the sky, "otherwise wouldn't I be looking for a creditor for myself?"
"Okay." Lu Wenyu said with a smile.
Ni Fang turned to look at Lawyer Chen and said, "I will pay you according to the market price."
"Miss Ni, you don't have to pay me anything," Lawyer Chen raised his eyebrows in the direction of Lu Wenyu, "I am Mr. Lu's personal lawyer. In principle, I cannot accept other work, let alone accept compensation. You might as well regard this as a small favor from Mr. Lu."
This time, it was indeed thanks to Lu Wenyu that this happened, and Ni Fang was not stingy in thanking him.
"You don't have to be so polite to me. I've told you that I'm always happy to help you at any time."
Lu Wenyu's eyes were so sincere that they seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts.
But Ni Fang always felt something was strange. Could it be that Lu Wenyu was a person who only cared about appearance and had a crush on her the first time they met? Ni Fang never believed in the so-called love at first sight. She felt that such feelings were too illusory. This was not because she was not confident about her appearance, but she just doubted whether the primitive impulse really had such great power to influence a person's emotions and behavior.
"Why?" Ni Fang asked.
"Because I like you and I'm pursuing you."
Lu Wenyu smiled slightly, and that smile was as warm and gentle as the spring sun.
The atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous, and Lawyer Chen tactfully walked to the corner and stood still.
Ni Fang felt that Lu Wenyu was releasing his charm to her. His ink-black eyes were full of temptation and seduction. The lights around him were just the right warm white, and all emotions seemed to be exposed under such lights.
Before she could figure out how to answer, Lu Wenyu's jade-like voice rang out again.
"I was too presumptuous," Lu Wenyu smiled and waved his hand, "You don't have to take what I just said to heart, just think of it as me talking to myself. I hope I didn't cause you any trouble."
"No, no, I know Mr. Lu treats me as a friend."
"As long as I can get your approval, my efforts today won't be in vain."
"Now that everything has been arranged, I should go back to school."
"I'll ask the driver to take you back."
Ni Fang didn't hesitate and nodded in agreement.
The moment the two stepped out of the gallery, the lights behind them suddenly went out.
Lu Wenyu leaned over and whispered, "I'll tell you what I just said when I have the chance."
It was like an electric current passing through her ears, and she almost tripped over the steps on the ground.
Lu Wenyu's expression was calm and composed, as if he didn't realize there was anything wrong with his words. He even reached out to hold Ni Fang's arm and said gently, "Be careful."
Ni Fang used the force to stand still and took a step away. "It's okay. I'm watching the road."
The Yuanying ancestor who had lived for hundreds of years was suddenly confused by a modern young man. It was simply the opposite of the Tiangang! Ni Fang couldn't help but condemn himself in his heart.
Until he left Mercedes-Benz, he was still immersed in this self-condemnation.
Perhaps it was because the modern world made her feel familiar and relaxed, or perhaps it was because Mingming's sudden disappearance made her let down her guard, and she actually forgot for a moment the danger posed by Lu Wenyu.
He was really going backwards as he grew older. Ni Fang couldn't help but raise his hand and knock on his head.
Now is not the time to think about this.
After regaining his senses, Ni Fang re-examined his situation. He transferred most of the savings in his bank card to Lawyer Chen. The remaining hundreds of thousands of yuan had to be used for daily expenses. The plan to move out of the dormitory after the military training had to be put on hold for the time being.
……
The headlights came on briefly and then turned off again.
Lu Wenyu finished his odd jobs and rested on the backrest of the car seat. He had finally found time for this appointment, so he naturally gave priority to work after the appointment.
Lawyer Chen observed Lu Wenyu's condition through the rearview mirror and considerately adjusted the brightness and air-conditioning temperature in the car for him so that he could rest more comfortably.
"Just say whatever you want to say." Lu Wenyu said with his eyes still closed.
"Mr. Lu, why do you suddenly want to pursue Miss Ni? Didn't you previously..."
Lu Wenyu opened his eyes. The lights of the houses outside the window reflected on his face, adding a hint of gloom to his face. "What I want you to do does not conflict with helping Nifang. Just be patient and do your job."
The implication was that Lawyer Chen should shut his mouth and cover his ears. Lawyer Chen understood what he meant and agreed immediately.
