Married to the Male Lead’s Brother
Chapter 39
Chapter 39 - She almost coughed out blood (2)
She stopped teasing him and put her arms around his waist.
Through the thick layer of fabric, Ning Zhi could feel the heat radiating from his body burning up her palms.
Lu Jue snuggled up to her tightly, greedy for the coolness of her body.
She wasn’t sure whether it was because he was feeling very comfortable but she saw that his indicator that had just been cleaned out started to produce little suns again.
One!
Two!
Three!
……
As Ning Zhi was hugging Lu Jue, the little suns rushed toward Ning Zhi as soon as they appeared.
The Overlord couldn't help but popped its head out. His milky voice was so excited that it was shaky. [Host…… you are dirt rich now!]
He felt that he was so lucky to have a host that could become dirt rich at any moment. As opposed to his poor brother Riches, who had to beg his host to go and collect golden cotton candies every time.
Another little sun appeared above Lu Jue’s head and Ning Zhi, too, felt that she was about to strike it rich.
Lu Jue was no silly little thing; he was the God of Wealth! A sun mine!
Perhaps she should consider having Lu Jue drinking a little more next time?
Someone knocked on the door suddenly.
Ning Zhi had no choice but to let go of Lu Jue.
She opened up the door and saw Mother Lin standing outside of her door.
“How’s Second Young Master Lu? Is he okay after having the alcohol?” Mother Lin came up and asked the first chance she got. She worried that the Lu family would be unhappy if anything was to happen to Lu Jue.
“He is drunk.”
“Drunk?” Mother Lin was surprised. “Didn’t he just drink a few sips? I’ll have the kitchen prepare some sobering soup and have someone bring it over in a little bit.”
Ning Zhi studied Mother Lu carefully and it didn’t look like she was faking it. “It’s alright. I am sure he will feel better after a little bit of rest.”
Looking at the little box that Mother Lin was carrying in her hand, she asked, “This is……”
“Inside is what your parents had left for you.” Mother Lin handed her the little box. “You were still young back then so I had kept it for you. Nor do I wish to see you sad when you saw it.”
Ning Zhi took the little box from her.
She saw a picture when she opened it up. It was one of her with her parents when she was just a child. Under the picture there was a jade stamp. There was a small “Ning” carved on the little white jade stamp.
Mother Lin sighed and said, “Be sure to keep it somewhere safe.”
She had always cared about her niece.
Ning Zhi was a very pretty girl and she had always wanted her to marry into an influential family. It would not only help out the Lin family but Ning Zhi would also live a comfortable life. There were some selfish intents in it but her care for Ning Zhi was real.
Ning Zhi did not have the status to marry into the Lu family originally. That was Tiantian’s idea. Tiantian had Ning Zhi go visit her at the Lu family and, lo and behold, Mother Lu really had an eye for Ning Zhi.
From Mother Lin’s perspective, there are not influential family greater than the Lu family. Tiantian had already married into them. With the addition of Ning Zhi, the two families would be tied together for good.
“Mom.” Lin Tiantian showed up out of nowhere and, looking at the two standing by the door, asked with a smile, “What are you and Xiao Zhi chatting about?”
Lin Tiantian saw Ning Zhi holding a small jade jewelry when she looked over at Ning Zhi.
“I am giving Xiao Zhi what her parents had left for her.” Mother Lin asked her, “How come you are coming up here? Don’t you need to stay with Shenyuan?”
Lin Tiantian said coquettishly, “Dad is dominating the conversation with him. I can’t squeeze a word in between the two of them.”
Mother Lin smiled. “Shenyuan doesn’t come very often. I am sure your father has a lot he wanted to talk to Shenyuan about on the rare occasions that he is over.” She turned to Ning Zhi and said, “I am going to see check on the guests. If you have any problems over here, have a servant help you out.”
