Chapter 116 - 116 Stay Away From Him

116 Stay Away From Him

Huo Jinyan looked at her and could not help but think of that day again.

Countless images of her, rus.h.i.+ng over to cover him without a shred of hesitation, flashed through his mind.

…

To be able to do that without hesitation, what was she thinking at that time?

To be able to save him without hesitation, could she really be the Z who had put him in danger several times?

Why… did she save him without hesitation?

For the first time, Huo Jinyan faced a difficult problem that he could not solve.

He looked at Lu Ning with a complicated gaze.

“Why?”

When Lu Ning heard him suddenly speak, she instinctively turned to look at him. “Huh?”

She did not hear clearly what Huo Jinyan said.

“Why did you take the bullet for me?”

Huo Jinyan did not want to brush it off like this. He stared at her with an intense gaze.

Lu Ning was stunned for a moment as the scene from that day flashed through her mind.

During the few days she had been hospitalized, there had always been either a family member or a reporter with her; she did not have the time to think about the situation that day. If Huo Jinyan had not mentioned it, she would have subconsciously forgotten that she had actually been shot and hospitalized.

But as for taking the bullet for him…

Lu Ning looked at him and decided to tell him about this so that he would not feel burdened.

“Actually, I…”

She had just started when Lu Zhi and Shen Yunci pushed the door open and entered.

“Ning’ning, we bought some good…”

Her voice stopped when she saw Huo Jinyan.

Lu Ning turned to look at them. “Dad, Mom, Teacher Huo was asked by the school to tutor me.”

Lu Zhi and Shen Yunci nodded. “Mr. Huo, thank you for your hard work.”

Huo Jinyan also stood up politely and nodded.

“Teacher Huo, have you eaten? Do you want to have some with us?”

Huo Jinyan shook his head. “No need.”

Lu Ning looked over. “Dad, Mom, you guys eat first. I’m not hungry yet.”

Shen Yunci nodded. “Then continue with your tuition. We’ll keep our voices down over there.”

Lu Ning nodded and looked at Lu Jingzhi. She did not know what this child was thinking, but he kept staring at Huo Jinyan.

Until he was pulled away by Shen Yunci.

Huo Jinyan sat down again. With Shen Yunci and the others around, they definitely could not continue the topic just now.

Huo Jinyan stayed for about an hour before he got up to leave.

He declined Lu Zhi’s offer to send him out, and closed the door behind him.

After he left, Lu Ning heaved a sigh of relief.

Lu Jingzhi pa.s.sed a small cake to Lu Ning.

Lu Ning was happy to see his little face and took it with a smile.

Lu Jingzhi climbed onto the bed and sat beside Lu Ning.

“What’s wrong?”

Lu Jingzhi leaned close to Lu Ning’s ear and whispered, “Sister, he looks so fierce. You have to stay away from him.”

Lu Ning looked at his serious expression and wanted to laugh.

“But he’s my teacher. If I want to study, how can I stay away from my teacher?”

Lu Jingzhi frowned and lowered his head to think carefully.

Lu Ning smiled at him and began to eat the cake.

Lu Jingzhi looked at Lu Ning and asked worriedly, “Sister, can’t you work harder on your own?”

Lu Ning: “…”

A direct strike to her heart—what’s going on?!

Lu Ning negotiated with him, gently, “How about this? I’ll work harder myself, but I still need Teacher’s help, right? So, can I maintain a minimum distance of one meter from Teacher in the future?”

When Lu Jingzhi heard this, he jumped off the bed and retreated about a meter away to look at Lu Ning.

This distance isn’t unacceptable.

“Okay!”

Lu Ning smiled until her cheeks hurt when she saw him accept it reluctantly.

However, he still carried himself like a little adult, looking so serious and yet so funny.
