Chapter 871 Off With The Matchmaker

At seven in the evening, Ning Ran, who had just returned to Flower City, received a call from Lu Jingyuan.

The latter was in Flower City on a last-minute trip with her brother. They were returning to the capital first thing the following morning, so Lu Jingyuan wanted to take this opportunity to meet with Ning Ran.

After hanging up, Ning Ran immediately called Nan Xing, requesting him to arrange a restaurant for her as Lu Jingyuan was in town.

Nan Xing was having a meal with his friends then, so he asked Ning Ran to push the date to tomorrow. However, Ning Ran rejected him as Lu Jingyuan was leaving early the next day.

She threatened Nan Xing through the phone, “You must show up. If you don't, I'll cut ties with you!”

Nan Xing was exasperated by Ning Ran's constant threats of cutting ties with him. Yet, he knew he couldn't offend her, so Nan Xing quickly ended his meal and arranged a restaurant for her.

Nan Xing had been waiting for a while when Ning Ran and Lu Jingyuan arrived at his chosen location.

Unexpectedly, Ning Ran and Lu Jingyuan only wanted to drink red wine without eating, for the time was getting late.

From the moment Lu Jingyuan sat down, Nan Xing's gaze had been fixated on her.

He had been attracted to Lu Jingyuan's beauty since they met in Livingsfill, so he didn't attempt to hide his feelings, flirting with her constantly, even misleading Ning Ran into thinking Nan Chen was the one flirting with Lu Jingyuan.

As the sun in the capital wasn't as intense as in Livingsfill, Lu Jingyuan's skin had turned fairer, making her prettier in Nan Xing's eyes.

Lu Jingyuan noticed Nan Xing's focused gaze on her. Distaste appeared on her face, for she hated his frivolous behavior.

On the other hand, Ning Ran kicked him under the table. “Your eyes are bulging out from their sockets! Is this your first time seeing a beautiful woman? Do you have any shame? You hail from an affluent family, for goodness' sake!”

Nan Xing moaned in pain. “Ning Ran, you brute! We're in an upscale restaurant. How can you kick me here?”

“I'll show you what a brute is if you continue being rude to Jingyuan! Do you think I dare not throw the steak at you and give you a good facial session?” Ning Ran fumed.

Nan Xing was shocked. “Why would you do this to me, Ning Ran? This is my treat for Jingyuan. Why do you want to abuse me? I didn't do anything, okay? I was just staring at her. Everyone wants to stare at an attractive woman. If she doesn't want people to look at her, she should just hide at home!”

“Stop talking!” Ning Ran pointed her fork at Nan Xing, forcing him to shut up.

Jingyuan's despise for Nan Xing grew. What a flippant, rude man. He is nothing like the mature and elegant Nan Chen, even though
